Must order the boatlike Funghi e Tarturo, the margarita pizza with burrata - absolutely delish! The Lamb dishes were out so we couldn't try them. Comparing the 3 pasta, the prawn Aglio Olio was my favourite! I could just drink off the sauce from the Cioppano (fisherman's stew) the fish was fried crispy and juicy inside - if only they could make the ingredients a bit more sumptuous for this dish. Overall very affordable dinner out with family and much worthwhile to pay with Grab dine out for further discount.

I came across Kucina through the chef Gero’s TikTok videos and was impressed enough to make a visit to the KINEX outlet during the 1-for-1 promotion in June. The restaurant has a cosy set up, with a relatively tight shop space. There was no QR-code ordering, I appreciated the personalised service which made the experience feel more traditional. Unfortunately, the food was a bit of a mixed experience for me. The pizza was quite tough and difficult to chew. The pasta was pretty good, it arrived at our table colder than I would have preferred. The drinks were on the pricier side with generous amount of ice, juice and fruits. The panna cotta was decent and pleasantly not too sweet, which I enjoyed. Overall, I’m glad I gave Kucina a try, especially after following the chef’s videos though I’m not particularly inclined to return.

Can’t recall how many times i’ve been here. Revisited Kucina for their anniversary menu with Chef Imran, aka the Pasta Nerd. We went with the anniversary specials for our mains, along with plenty of sides and tiramisu for dessert. Both pasta was out of this world. Every bite was magical and expensive tasting. We enjoyed the sides too, particularly the clams and mussels stew. Highly recommend this place. It is unlike any halal italian restaurants in singapore

Visited Kucina with my family of five and took advantage of their 1-for-1 promotion. We had a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. The standout dishes for us were definitely the ravioli and calamari — both were exceptionally well-seasoned, flavourful, and cooked perfectly. We also enjoyed the truffle fries, clams, lamb shank, four-cheese pizza, and several other dishes, all of which were delicious and generously portioned. Service was excellent as well. The staff were attentive, friendly, and the food arrived surprisingly quickly despite the restaurant being busy. The ambience was warm and inviting, making it a great place for a family meal. Overall, great food, great service, and great value. We would definitely return and highly recommend Kucina to anyone looking for quality Italian food in a comfortable setting. Congrats on your 10th anniversary! 🎉

This was my second time at Kucina Italian. My first visit was back in 2023, and I remember leaving with such a good impression, so I was really excited to come back. I came a little early for lunch and was also pleasantly surprised by how much the place has changed. The restaurant feels cozy, with softer ambience, nice decor, and beautiful artworks that make the whole space feels pleasantly Mediterranean. Now the food — honestly, this was such a nice surprise. Obviously the menu is changed from what I remembered, but still so good. We ordered: * Kucina Caesar Salad Very fresh, crisp, and easy to enjoy. It was a nice starter because it felt light but still satisfying. * Burrata Soft, creamy, and lovely to share. I really enjoyed that fresh milky taste it pairs so well with the basil pesto, olives and capers—a must try if you are looking for fresh starter. * Crab Cake This was really good. It was light and delicate, with a nice natural sweetness from the crab. Not heavy, just very tasty and nicely done. * Mafalda di Ragù THIS is seriously my favorite! The sauce was so good — rich, hearty, and full of flavour. The beef chunks were tender and coated so nicely in the ragù. Honestly, this is a MUST try. * Ravioli The mushroom filling was so soft, rich earthy mushroom on the sides and very comforting. I also loved the buttery thyme sauce — such a delicate flavour that is pleasantly delicious! * La Barca This is one of Chef Gero’s original creations, and I was told it has been a mainstay on the menu for 10 years. Honestly, I regret not trying it back in 2023 because guys — it is so GOOD. The truffle pâté, the creamy-smoky scamorza cheese, and that warm baked dough together was so indulgent. It was rich, fragrant, and so satisfying that I almost forgot my own name! This one is seriously another one that is MUST try. For dessert, we shared Chef Gero’s famous panna cotta — and yes, it was still as jiggly-wiggly as I remembered. It was smooth, light, and just the right sweetness. Such a happy ending to the meal. The portions were generous too, which I appreciated. Everything we ordered was filling, tasty, and beautifully served, but still felt comforting and not too fancy or intimidating. The service was also lovely. The staff were attentive and patiently explained the dishes to us. You can tell they know the food well, and that made the whole experience feel more personal. Overall, Kucina gave me that cozy, homey feeling — good food, warm service, and a place where you forget time. I would definitely come back again!
