The food was alright, but the timing for the buffet felt quite rushed, so you won't be able to enjoy it fully. Most of the items were average, but the standard Swensen's items were good, like the fish and chips and ice cream, especially the sticky chewy chocolate.

Lack of service. The food was mediocre, not hot, and too dry. If you're looking for huge variety and to eat until you're full, this place is definitely value for money. In the end, the ice cream was the most enjoyable.

Swensen’s 1 Science Park Drive — where paying customers are treated like intruders, and staff get the real buffet.
Booked for 8:30 PM. The website proudly states 90 minutes for dine-in. The reality? Staff barked at us that everything ends at 9:15 PM. So, thanks for the generous 45 minutes, Swensen’s. Why even take 8:30 PM reservations? Oh right — so you can scam people into showing up.
The “chef” at the live station deserves an award for unprofessionalism. She loudly whined, “Why still let people in? We should have already closed,” while slapping together soupy rice with curry dumped on top and calling it “baked rice.” Honestly, I’ve seen instant noodles made with more effort and dignity.
Hygiene? Nonexistent. Staff eating behind the counter maskless, filling their personal bottles at the drink machines, dismantling water fountains so customers get splashed. And the best part? At 9:15 PM sharp, customers are cut off so the staff can dig in — ice cream, food, you name it. Ah yes, the legendary Swensen’s staff happy hour, funded by paying guests like me.
I spent $287.76 for this circus — my evening was ruined, I received attitude, trash food, and a front-row seat to watch employees treat the outlet like their personal canteen.
Swensen’s, you should be embarrassed. You don’t run a restaurant; you run a scam with ice cream on top.

Swensen's has definitely evolved with the times. What started as a premium ice-cream chain in the 1980s has become this Swensen's Unlimited, which is a buffet restaurant.
For $35.00++ for weekday lunch, you get 90 minutes of buffet, including all the Swensen's ice creams you can eat. The food is mainly local but includes Western options like lasagna and pizzas .
Founded in 1948 by Earle Swensen in San Francisco, California, USA, its global expansion in the 1970s brought it to Southeast Asia. While the chain has mostly closed in the US, Thailand and Singapore remain its largest markets.

First time at Swensen's Unlimited, we went to the Geneo branch to celebrate my husband's birthday with four dear friends. We enjoyed the food and the many varieties of ice creams! The atmosphere here is really good. I like that it's so bright, clean, and with ample space. Ann attended to us; she is very friendly and nice! Thank you, Ann! We will come back here again.

There's a wide spread of food varieties which cater to my family of 4 (with 2 young kids). We came here to celebrate our son's 3rd birthday and it was our first visit. Overall, the food was great, the ambience was nice, and the staff were all very helpful. They prepared an ice cream cone with strawberries on a nicely decorated plate and sang 'Happy Birthday' to our son. We also received a printed family photo along with this. Thankful to the staff, especially the manager in charge, Moriel, who was particularly attentive and helpful. We enjoyed the food and the great service. Definitely not our last time here!

We've tried Swensens' Unlimited buffet a few times at the airport, but this is our first time trying out this branch. We made a reservation for 11:30 am to get a good head start before the lunch rush on a regular weekday. The place here is quite spacious and can easily accommodate 200 people. By lunchtime, it was about 75% full. The food here is still as good as the food at the airport branch. We always go for our regular favorites like the mee goreng, handmade pizzas, strip loin with black pepper sauce, and meatballs. Nothing beats ending the buffet with some ice cream 🍦, waffles, and some nyonya kuehs.

If you're looking for a satisfying Western-style buffet in Singapore, Swensen's Unlimited is definitely worth a visit. The restaurant offers a wide selection of Western dishes, perfect for both families and casual diners.
The place is impressively clean and well-maintained, creating a pleasant and comfortable dining environment. One of the highlights of our visit was the service, especially from Amira, a friendly and attentive staff member who went above and beyond to help us choose some of the best dishes on the menu. Her warm personality truly added to the experience.
Considering it's a weekend, the price was surprisingly reasonable for an all-you-can-eat buffet. Great value for money, delicious food, and excellent service. Highly recommended!
