Opened in January 2011 at Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore, db Bistro & Oyster Bar was founded by Daniel Boulud ^[1] as a spinoff of his db Bistro Moderne in New York City. It specialized in fresh seafood more than the original location due to its coastal real estate and was a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. The restaurant featured a bar area where guests could try a variety of cocktails and other drinks. The bar also featured live music on certain nights. ^[2]

Layout

The interior was modeled after a traditional French bistro with dark wood, red leather booths and marble tabletops. ^[3] The multi-level dining room had a window with a view into the kitchen, and the private dining room had a view into the wine cellar. ^[4] The interior was designed by Jeffrey Beers International. ^[5]

Staff

The executive chefs were Stephane Istel from 2010 to 2013 and Jonathan Kinsella from 2013 to 2024. ^[6]

Closure

db Bistro & Oyster Bar closed January 2024 to make way for Boulud's next endeavor, Maison Boulud. ^[7]
