LINO @ Binjai Park is an Italian restaurant whose name comes from the Italian word for linen — the cloth traditionally used to cover pizza dough as it leavens, allowing it to naturally ferment without interference. That same philosophy runs through the kitchen: classic cooking techniques that let flavours develop naturally and honestly, rather than relying on shortcuts.
LINO specialises in fresh handmade pizza, comforting pasta, and a variety of hearty Italian favourites, paired with a beverage programme built around wines, spritzes, beer, digestifs, cocktails and coffee. The restaurant offers a relaxed, casual yet elegant dining experience with both indoor and al fresco seating at its Binjai Park location.
LINO is a concept by Les Amis Group, one of Singapore's established restaurant groups, and now operates from two outlets across Singapore. The Binjai Park location serves daily from 12pm to 2.30pm (last order 2.15pm) for lunch, and 5.30pm to 10pm (last order 9.30pm) for dinner.
LINO @ Binjai Park takes its name from the Italian word for linen — the traditional cloth used to cover pizza dough as it leavens, allowing the dough to naturally ferment without interference. It's a small detail, but one that captures the restaurant's whole approach to food: classic techniques, given time to work, without shortcuts.
At LINO, the kitchen is built around the idea that flavours develop best when given the time and technique to do so naturally and honestly. This philosophy shows up most clearly in the pizza — hand-crafted daily and proofed for 48 hours before being cooked in a wood-burning oven, resulting in the kind of depth of flavour that comes only from patience. The Burrata Pizza, topped with slow roast cherry tomato, passata and basil, is a good example of the restaurant's straightforward, ingredient-led approach.
Beyond pizza, LINO's pasta dishes lean into comfort without sacrificing craft. The Garganeli comes with a Spanish black pig ragu, red wine, tomato, cream and parmesan cheese, while the Chittara Ala Carbonara takes the classic carbonara and elevates it with soft boiled egg, truffle cream, ham crumble and parmesan. For something heartier, the Lamb Ragu Garganelli features Australian lamb shoulder alongside eggplant caviar, tomato, rosemary and parmesan — a dish built for those cooler evenings when only something rich and slow-cooked will do.
Beyond pasta, the menu extends to starters and mains like house-cured and smoked Smoked Salmon Trout, finished with a peppery yuzu dressing and applewood smoke; sautéed King Prawns with thyme, garlic chilli and olive oil; and a Deep Fried Chicken Roulade — breaded chicken breast rolled with truffle mortadella, pecorino and mozzarella. For plant-based diners, LINO also serves a Meatless Meat dish, built around Beyond Meat, baby kale, mushrooms, fior di latte, sesame seed, mayonnaise and teriyaki sauce.
LINO's food is paired with a genuinely considered beverage programme spanning wines, spritzes, beer, digestifs, cocktails and coffee — designed to complement the Italian menu whether you're settling in for a long lunch or an evening out. Desserts round things out with options like the Lychee & Raspberry Layered Cake, decorated with edible rose petals and pistachio crumbs, and a classic Apple Tart served with whipped cream.
LINO @ Binjai Park offers a casual yet elegant dining atmosphere, with both indoor seating and al fresco options for guests who prefer to dine outdoors. The restaurant is a concept by Les Amis Group, one of Singapore's well-established restaurant groups, and LINO now operates from two outlets across the island — a sign of the concept's growing following since it first opened its doors.
LINO @ Binjai Park is open daily, serving lunch from 12pm to 2.30pm (last order 2.15pm) and dinner from 5.30pm to 10pm (last order 9.30pm). Reservations can be made online, and for those who'd rather enjoy LINO's food at home, delivery and takeaway are also available. Whether you're after a proper wood-fired pizza, a comforting bowl of pasta, or a relaxed evening with a good glass of wine, LINO @ Binjai Park offers an inviting slice of Italy in Bukit Timah.
