mezza9
Grand Hyatt Singapore



mezza9 is an exciting concept and the first of its kind in Asia, embodying nine different dining and entertainment experiences in one single venue. As the name suggests, the restaurant occupies the area on the mezzanine level.

Based on an open kitchen concept, nine counters or show kitchens focusing on a theme is a point of interest in itself with elaborate food displays and chef activity. However, the cleverly planned layout ensures that one area's activity does not intrude the others.
