Flutes offers an intimate, white-table-clothed affair within the heritage Guoco Midtown House. The set degustation menu features four fixed courses, with the option to add up to three additional dishes. Under Australian executive chef Peter Rollinson, the focus is on seasonal ingredients elevated with local flair—such as sambal butter and chilli crab. Dishes are elegantly presented, showcasing technical mastery while balancing pristine ingredients with layered textures and flavours. The wine list, heavily French-focused and spanning over 300 labels, offers plentiful opportunities for thoughtful pairings. The atmosphere is refined, though, occasionally a touch subdued; and service, while attentive, can verge on overly efficient. Despite these minor quirks, Flutes delivers an elevated dining experience where every detail—is considered, making it a reliable and sophisticated choice for a special meal out.
