Why go
Asian Twist by 365 Food is a corporate-park lunch venue at Singapore's Science Park, operated by institutional caterer 365 Food. It works well for a weekday midday meal if you are already in the area, but it is not a destination. Walk-ins at lunch are the norm; evening visits are hard to justify given the location and operator format.
About Asian Twist by 365 Food
Asian Twist by 365 Food: Quick Take
The name suggests a pan-Asian fusion concept, but Asian Twist by 365 Food is better understood as a Science Park canteen operating at a higher register than the surrounding food court options; not a destination restaurant. If you are coming from central Singapore expecting a polished dining room, recalibrate: this is a lunch-driven, workplace-adjacent spot in the Ascent building at 2 Science Park Drive. The daytime crowd tells you everything about who this place actually serves.
On the question of lunch versus dinner: lunch is almost certainly where Asian Twist by 365 Food makes sense. The Science Park precinct empties considerably in the evenings, a venue in this location; managed under the 365 Food group, which operates institutional and corporate catering accounts across Singapore, is designed around the weekday midday rush. If you are in the area for work, or staying somewhere nearby in the west of Singapore, a lunch visit is a reasonable call. An evening trip requires specific motivation that the available data does not currently support.
The Ascent building address puts this venue firmly outside the tourist or leisure dining circuit. Compare that positioning to destination Singapore restaurants like Les Amis in Singapore or the hawker-rooted precision of Ah Ter Teochew Fishball Noodles in Downtown Core, and the gap in intent becomes clear. Asian Twist is not competing in that space. It is a functional, accessible option for the Science Park worker population, that framing should guide your expectations.
If you have visited once and are weighing a return, the honest advice is to consider what specifically worked for you the first time. The 365 Food group operates at scale, so consistency across visits is more plausible than surprise. For something more considered in Singapore's west or central areas, Béni in Orchard or Cicheti in Rochor offer a meaningfully different experience if the occasion warrants it.
Booking difficulty is low. Walk-in access at lunch is the expected format for a venue of this type and location. No reservation infrastructure is noted in the available data, which further confirms the casual, volume-oriented nature of the operation. Arrive during the core lunch window, typically 12:00 to 13:30 for Science Park venues, if you want the full spread of options before anything sells out.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Asian Twist by 365 Food reads like a pragmatic, daytime-focused pan-Asian lunchroom tucked into Science Park Drive. It prioritizes function over flourish: multiple ground-floor units and a seating plan geared to the office crowd create a low-key, utilitarian energy that supports efficient service. The restaurant doesn't aspire to be a destination nightlife spot; instead it settles into a quieter role in the neighbourhood—an accessible option for researchers, tech workers, and local staff seeking straightforward pan-Asian plates during the workday. The overall tone is unpretentious and purpose-driven rather than decorative or theatrical.
Best For
This is a lunch-first operation built around the rhythms of nearby research institutes and tech offices. It performs best as a weekday midday stop for solo workers, quick business lunches, or small groups from nearby companies who want pan-Asian variety without the formality or price tag of downtown full-service restaurants. Because dinner trade thins after hours, it is not positioned for celebratory evening meals or long, leisurely dining. Bookings are oriented around efficient turnover and predictable daytime demand rather than weekend destination service.
Ordering Tips
Expect a menu assembled with cross-regional influences and a pragmatic eye toward ingredient sourcing and consistency. The write-up highlights the kitchen’s need for supply-chain discipline when drawing across Chinese, Southeast Asian and East Asian traditions, so favour dishes that display focused sourcing or a single culinary tradition rather than expecting every plate to be an ambitious fusion experiment. Visit at lunchtime when the kitchen is operating at peak efficiency and the full array of lunch offerings is available; service is calibrated for speed and steady office traffic.

Restaurant context
Comparing Asian Twist by 365 Food against Queenstown, New Zealand's restaurant scene requires a geographic correction first: this venue is in Singapore's Queenstown neighbourhood, not the New Zealand resort town. With that said, if you are in Singapore's west and weighing options, the relevant comparison is not fine dining but functional lunch alternatives in the Science Park corridor. Asian Twist competes on convenience, not cuisine ambition.
For readers who arrived here looking for New Zealand's Queenstown: Amisfield is the strongest case for a considered, destination-quality lunch in that city, with a wine estate setting that Asian Twist cannot approach. Rātā is the better choice for dinner with serious cooking and a more urban room. Bespoke Kitchen wins on casual daytime value. Botswana Butchery and BarUp serve different needs; meat-forward dining and late-night drinks respectively; and neither overlaps meaningfully with what Asian Twist offers.
In short: if the occasion calls for anything beyond a practical weekday lunch, Asian Twist by 365 Food is not the right venue. Book Amisfield or Rātā for an experience worth travelling to. Use Asian Twist when you are already at Science Park and need a reliable, low-friction lunch option. See our full Queenstown restaurants guide for a complete picture of both cities' options.
