Very clean place with efficient service staff. There was quite a crowd when we reached the place but it did not take long to wait for our meals.
Noodles are really nice with lots of fresh ingredients.
I also appreciate the management of placing the tower fan near the entrance so as to blow away the smell coming from the Teppanyaki next door. Actually, there are several standing fans near the entrance as well. The smell can be quite overwhelming for long term vegetarians so better to sit inside the restaurant.
Olive fried rice and cereal prawns are extremely tasty! đ
I love everything here. No complaints only compliments! đ

Tried the other branch at Chun Tin Road, and because the food tasted good, we gave this a try as well, since it didn't have as much queue as the other neighbouring restaurants.
Their service was good and prompt, but we felt the food tasted better at Chun Tin. The vegetable (sambal sweet potato leaves) we ordered here was slightly too salty. The other dishes were OK.
On the whole, it was still a reasonable restaurant to dine in, where the prices were alright for a vegetarian joint.

Feels a little like a canteen. Very hectic place specially in the evening. We felt rushed even though we ate well before closing time. It's not feeling like other D'life places we have eaten at. Food was good.

It was my first time trying vegetarian dim sum and it was an interesting experience. The Xiao Long Bao had a rather thick skin and lacked the signature soupy burst you'd expect, which made it feel a bit dense. The Siew Mai, however, wasnât too bad â decent texture and taste considering itâs mocked meat.
What really stood out was the Truffle Mushroom Braised Yee Mian which was rich with earthy truffle aroma that paired perfectly with the chewy noodles.
Sadly, the Fish Claypot Soup didnât impress. It had a sour note that reminded me of an overnight dish that had been reheated â perhaps it was the sour plum, but it didnât sit well with our palate.
The place was packed when we arrived, but we were lucky enough to grab a table right away. Overall, a unique vegetarian twist on traditional dishes, and while some hits and misses, it's worth a visit for the Yee Mian alone.

Tried many things. Dim sum was tasty, mushrooms quite good, mapa tofu was spicy but still very nice. Outstanding: the vegan pork ribs - will go there to eat it again. No long waiting time, prices are okay, a bit over the average. Quality of food was very good and size of portion too.

DâLife Signature offers a cosy, inviting atmosphere tucked away on an upper floor of Chinatown Point. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking bustling Pagoda Street, itâs the perfect spot to unwind over a basket of vegetarian dim sum and light mains in the heart of the city.
đ Highlights
⢠Vegetarian dim sum & dishes: A surprisingly creative menu with classics like har gao and siu mai made entirely plant-based, plus unique items like pumpkin buns and âshrimpâ dumplings crafted from konnyaku.
⢠Ambience & view: The cafĂŠâs warm wood accents, comfortable seating, and large windows create a relaxed vibeâand the street view adds a dash of Singaporean charm.
⢠Service: Staff are exceptionally attentive and polite. Water glasses are refilled promptly, and servers are happy to explain ingredients and recommend dishes.
đ Considerations
⢠Pricing: Dim sum baskets start around SGD 6â7 each, and mains hover in the SGD 12â16 range. While the quality and presentation justify most of the cost, budgets may feel the pinch if you order several items.
Verdict
DâLife Signature is a must-try for vegetarians and curious foodies alike who value a relaxed setting and friendly service. Although the prices sit a bit above typical kopitiam or mall eateries, the inventive plant-based menu and pleasant street-side ambience make it well worth a return visit. Iâll certainly be back!

This vegetarian restaurant in Chinatown is an absolute gem, especially for those craving dim sum! Vegetarian dim sum is hard to come by in Singapore, but this place truly delivers. The variety and creativity in each dish are impressiveâfrom dumplings to buns, each bite is packed with flavor and crafted with care. The textures are spot-on, making it easy to forget itâs all plant-based. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal. If youâre a dim sum lover or vegetarian, this is a must-visit!

I am a long term vegetarian but the truth is Dlife has become more and more unacceptable in terms of STANDARD VS PRICE. It used to be affordable when it was branded as zizai and now a horfun cost me close to $10 WTF⌠on top of that the horfun sauce is supposed to be stickier but it is watery, and the green chillies are bluntly chopped and too fat, where is the effort? If Iâm paying $10 for a plate of horfun at least give me sticky sauce and thinly chopped green chillies will ya? Buck up your standards!!!

Allium-free vegetarian Chinese eatery. Items include zichar-style dishes, rice or noodle bowls, dim sum etc. The menu has recently been revamped with new dishes and clearer labelling for egg/dairy/honey; really appreciate this improvement! Would recommend the Sauerkraut Homemade Dish and Claypot Vinegar Trotter in particular, as they were both really unique and flavourful! Staff is friendly with good service too, directing me to seats away from the sun during hot weather, helping to cover and keep the food warm while I was waiting for other companions, etc. Conveniently accessible via Chinatown MRT Exit E.
