Singapore’s beloved Italian eatery Fico is packing up its coastal spirit and planting roots at a new beachfront outpost. On September 28, the restaurant opens its second location at Tanjong Beach Club, transplanting its signature Puglian seaside energy from East Coast Park to Sentosa’s sandy shores.
Born from a partnership between chef-partner Mirko Febbrile and The Lo & Behold Group, Fico first debuted at East Coast Park in 2023. Its philosophy is rooted in cucina povera — the Italian tradition of transforming humble, everyday ingredients into shareable dishes designed for lingering over long meals. The concept resonated quickly with diners and critics alike. Within its first year, Fico earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand, an accolade it has retained. Yet the restaurant’s true draw has always been its relaxed, anything-goes approach to eating and drinking: a place where the hours melt away as plates and glasses circulate.
A Seaside Reimagining
For the Tanjong Beach Club location, Fico is getting a proper coastal makeover. The restaurant retains its convivial, gathering-around-the-table spirit, but the design takes fresh cues from its oceanfront setting. Think sun-soaked spaces, breezier layouts, and an atmosphere that feels effortless by the water.
A coastal grill will anchor the kitchen, with open-flame cooking adding char and smokiness to fresh seafood and seasonal ingredients. The menu tilts toward lighter fare built around daily catches, bright coastal flavours, and aperitivo-style bites — ideal for pairing with a chilled glass of wine or a spritz while watching the waves.
The full food and drinks lineup remains under wraps for now. But based on the original East Coast Park location, patrons can anticipate plenty of Italian generosity, easy-drinking wines, and an abundance of shareable plates designed to feed a table.

This expansion signals more than just a second address for a popular restaurant. It marks a continued evolution of Singapore’s beachside dining scene, where casual elegance and high-quality cooking meet the island’s tropical lifestyle. For fans of the original Fico — and anyone seeking a new seaside ritual — this September opening offers another reason to head to Sentosa and take your sweet time about it.
