Description

Aji is helmed by a young Singaporean chef who fusions French flair with first-rate Japanese produce and Asian flavours. To wit, crispy skinned shima aji is served with sauces made from matcha green tea and 20-year-old dried tangerine peel. The counter is for diners who opt for the tasting menu that relates the chef’s memories. It can be creatively paired with red, white and yellow wines alongside sake and hard liquor.

Review summary

Located on the San Pedro shoreline, Aji offers innovative dining with generally high ratings for food quality, service, and ambiance. Reviewers frequently praise the friendly staff, scenic outdoor seating, and specific dishes like Fry Jacks, shrimp, and calamari. Live saxophone music enhances the atmosphere for special occasions. However, some negative feedback highlights inconsistent meal pacing, undercooked or chewy seafood textures, and concerns that certain items like paella may be reheated rather than freshly prepared. Occasional understaffing has also led to longer wait times for seating and drinks. While the setting and core offerings are well-regarded, experiences can vary regarding freshness and service efficiency.
