Nice ambience and good service. We had three different lunch sets on a Sat as well as a burger, and I sampled all, but had the DB burger as my main. It was not crowded, perhaps half full, though reservations always say full or last table. I was disappointed with the food, as were my lunch companions. The burger was dry and fairly tasteless, as were the beef dishes. I expect MUCH more from DB, especially for a S$48 burger. Most decent burgers, e.g. BurgerLabo and shake shack taste better at a fraction of the price. Luke's burger is far better. The fries were not hot and fairly tasteless as well. The condiments were so-so. The tomato soup was not bad as were the salads. Desserts were OK. I won't be back unless they improve standards. There are so many far better options at MBS or all over Singapore these days.
