Five star rating

As a Thai person, I must say that this is the best Mookata I have ever had in Singapore. The meats are fresh and of good quality, not the small pieces that you often find. The sauces and soup are also amazing, and I did not feel thirsty at all after eating. They use charcoal for grilling, which gives it an authentic flavor. The pot is bigger than other Mookata you can enjoy the soup and the fire are just nice !! The place is clean and has a nice view of the river. I will definitely go back again. Recommend !!!

Perfect spot for Mookata, choose the outdoor seating with lovely view of Singapore River. The food is fresh and there is wide selection of meats and seafood. Must order the beef steak! Staff offers help with grilling from time to time. Will be even better if there is dessert on the menu... highly recommend for casual dinner with friends

Mookata Reviews

4.6

on Google. The reviews below are published there, word for word, chosen because between them they explain what regulars come back for.

What Guests Keep Saying

Read enough of them and the same six things come up. They are the six reasons regulars choose Kin Tub over a cheaper pan somewhere else.

Charcoal, not gas

The one thing a gas-fired mookata cannot copy. Guests describe a smoky flavour they say a regular stove never produces, and more than one calls it rare in Singapore now.

Marinated before it reaches the table

The most talked about thing on the menu. Guests single out the pork collar, the chicken thigh and the pork belly with fish sauce.

The Singapore River

Guests book the outdoor tables deliberately, and several describe watching the National Day fireworks from them.

Portions built for a group

The recurring sentence is that a set for two fed three or four. Guests warn each other not to over-order, which is why every set lists what is in it.

The soup and the sauces

The broth gets richer as the meat cooks down into it, and staff top it up unasked. Several guests say they do not feel thirsty afterwards.

The people, not just the food

Guests describe staff helping them grill, recommending how much to order, and the owner asking for feedback before they leave.

Some guests do call it pricey for mookata, and the ones who say it almost always rate it highly anyway. The reason they give is the same each time: the cuts are premium, the portions feed more people than the menu says, and the pan is charcoal. This is a treat, and guests say it is worth treating.

★★★★★Charcoal

Fantastic dining experience! The meat quality was truly premium and definitely worth the price. We especially loved that they use traditional charcoal for grilling, which is so rare these days and adds an amazing smoky flavour to the meat. The Yuzu Sake and flavoured sparkling sake range paired perfectly with the food. Even the rice and kimchi were exceptional! It was so good that everyone wanted seconds! Overall, everyone loved the meal and we'll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!

★★★★★Best in SG

Probably the best mookata i have eaten .. even better than those in Golden Mile . We had a table at the corner. The meats were all good cuts, the prawn were large and fresh . The soup taste so good after it was mixed with the vegetables. Certainly a good place to eat with love one's and friends . The passion fruit soda is a must order

★★★★★Charcoal

This mookata is charcoal-based, and it tastes absolutely amazing. The charcoal really elevates the flavors, and all the ingredients were very fresh. If you're coming as 2 pax, I'd recommend ordering just one set, it already includes rice noodles and an egg, so it's quite filling. Don't over-order! Overall, it was really good, and I'd definitely come back again soon.

★★★★★River seating

First and foremost, the view from our table was spectacular. I made a reservation via WhatsApp, requesting outdoor seating, which they kindly accommodated. We were seated right at the river's edge, offering us a great view of the Singapore River and Marina Bay Sands. We ordered the Premium Beef and Pork set. The portions were generous and sufficient for three people, with three varieties of beef and pork cuts, all marinated and seasoned very well. The set also included a basket of vegetables, glass noodles, and an egg. The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and attentive, always ensuring our soup was refilled before it dried up.

★★★★★Meat quality

The food is delicious and extremely clean, and the staff are incredibly friendly. The prices are slightly higher than other places, but the quality of the meat is far superior, it really shouldn't be compared to buffet meat from other restaurants. I prefer quality and safe food. The atmosphere is especially comfortable and airy. My friends and I had a wonderful time here, and we even enjoyed the fireworks without having to deal with crowds.

★★★★★Soup and sauces

Really enjoyed the mookata here! The ingredients were super fresh, and the dipping sauces were amazing. The soup base got richer as it cooked, so satisfying! Will definitely come back again.

★★★★★Visiting Singapore

I visited twice during my short trip. I'm very satisfied with both times. It's really delicious. The soup is refills frequently, the staff is kind, and the price is reasonable. If I go to Singapore again, I will definitely visit again.

★★★★★Thai diner

I think this might be the best mookata spot in Singapore when it comes to atmosphere, really such a great vibe. The place can be a little tricky to notice at first, but it's definitely there. They offer both set menus and a la carte options, and the drinks are really good too, with authentic Thai flavors. If you're curious, I'd highly recommend coming here to try it out!

★★★★★Charcoal

Loved the fact that the owner uses charcoal instead of gas stove as it really enhances the taste. Sauce is pretty authentic as well! The owner and his staffs are very service oriented. He asked for our feedback before we left which is a good thing, means he is always working on improving his restaurant. Overall, a great experience tonight!

★★★★★Celebrations

Superb quality of meats and service! Charcoal mookata by the riverside is such an enjoyable indulgence. Though we didn't get the exact table that was promised, the staffs made it up by providing the most attentive service and also a mini birthday cake and sparklers celebration! Thank you Kin Tub for making the birthday meal such a memorable one!

★★★★★Charcoal

Had a great dinner at Kintub tonight! Really appreciated that they use charcoal instead of gas, it adds a nice, smoky flavor to the meat that you just can't get with a regular stove. The sauce was legit too, rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The owner and staff were super friendly and attentive. Great vibes, great food. Will be back!

★★★★★Regular

One of my go-to spots for Thai mookata! I've been here many times and it never disappoints. The soup base is flavourful, the meats are always fresh and well-marinated, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. Definitely my favorite mookata spot in town! Highly recommended, especially if you're craving authentic Thai BBQ hotpot!

★★★★★Wagyu

Amazing fresh meats and seafood grilled on the traditional charcoal pot. Recommend to come and try at this mookata shop. Love the vibes by the boat quay river and affordable. Must order the squid!! If you like wagyu beef, it melts in your mouth if you cook to the right done-ness. The platter is big and enough for sharing with group of friends :)

★★★★★Wagyu

Authentic and delicious Thai Mookata, the quality of the meats and cuts were superb. We especially loved the wagyu beef and marinated pork. Their home made chilli sauces were fresh, delicious and paired so well with the dishes. Fantastic service as well, will definitely be back!

★★★★★No smoke smell

One of the best mookata in SG. The meats are well marinated, all of the food are very fresh including the prawns. Most outstanding thing is the view, can't get it anywhere else. Fresh air and outdoor, not humid and you won't smell after eating. Chilli and soup good too, they gave alot of meat and ingredients for a 2 pax platter unlike some other places which has only vegetables underneath as disguise. Staff are friendly and helpful too.

★★★★★Portions

They are now at Boat Quay. Serving premium meats also. Big Portion. Seasoning and chilli sauce is top. Ordered 1 Seafood and 1 Meat platter enough for 6 pax. Meats were fresh. 3rd time there. Will go again and will not hesitate to recommend to others.

★★★★★Charcoal

Went back after the renovation. Facilities and atmosphere are upgraded. Friendly staff with excellent services. Food quality is fantastic; it is fresh and outstandingly marinated. The marinated chicken is a must-try with the fried chicken wing and grilled squid. It is one of the best and my favourite authentic Mookata that still uses charcoal to bring out the full taste of the food!
