ASTONS Best Sellers
ASTONS has been grilling in Singapore since 2005, and its menu has barely changed in all that time, which tells you something. Regulars do not come here for surprises. They come for a chargrilled chicken plate that tastes the same at every outlet, a steak cooked to the doneness they asked for, and two sides they picked themselves. This guide ranks the ASTONS best sellers the way guides and reviews actually talk about them, with reported prices, so a first timer can order like a regular.
What is the most popular dish at ASTONS?
The chargrilled chicken, without much contest. It is the dish ASTONS started with, it is the cheapest main on the card, and it shows up in review after review, usually with the same words: tender, juicy, well grilled. You pick your sauce from the Grillworks range, and lemon lime is the classic, the one reviewers name most. Black pepper runs second for people who want heat, and hickory BBQ third for a smoky, slightly sweet plate. The chicken comes with two sides of your choice, which is half the reason the plate works so well at its price.
A note on honesty here: this ranking is editorial popularity, built from Singapore food guides and customer reviews, not ASTONS sales data. The chain does not publish sales figures, so no guide can tell you the exact top seller by units. What we can say is that grilled chicken dominates the conversation about ASTONS in a way no other item does, and that is a fair guide for a first visit.
Which ASTONS best sellers are worth ordering?
Start with the chicken if you are watching your wallet, and start with the steak if the grill itself is the point. The sirloin, reported at S$15.90, is the value steak: a proper cut, grilled to order, with two sides, at a price that undercuts most sit down steakhouses in town by a wide margin. The ribeye costs more and eats richer, with more marbling, so it suits a treat meal rather than a weekly visit. Then there is the sharing combo, reported at S$25.90, which pairs steak and chicken for two diners or one very hungry one, and it is the plate groups keep recommending.
The chicken sauces ranked by regulars
Lemon lime leads because it is fresh and light, and it lets the char on the chicken show through. Black pepper follows, with a peppery warmth that suits the mashed potato side. Hickory BBQ is the comfort pick, smoky and a touch sweet, and it pairs well with onion rings. Teriyaki and fiery chicken have their fans too, fiery for spice lovers, teriyaki for a sweeter plate, but they trail the top three in how often reviewers name them. If you cannot decide, lemon lime is the safe first order.
Steak cuts and the sharing combo
Sirloin is the everyday steak, lean enough to feel like a sensible meal and flavourful enough to justify the step up from chicken. Ribeye is the indulgent cut, fattier and softer, and it is the one steak lovers name when they want the best plate in the house. The sharing combo solves the chicken versus steak argument by giving you both, and it is popular with couples and small groups who split the plate and order extra sides between them. Add the mushroom soup, a guide favourite, and the meal feels complete.

How much do ASTONS best sellers cost?
Most mains sit in the reported S$10 to S$20 range, which is why ASTONS keeps its budget reputation even as a sit down restaurant. Chicken mains cluster near S$10.90, sirloin near S$15.90, and the sharing combo near S$25.90. A complete meal for one, a chicken main plus mushroom soup, lands near S$14 to S$15 on reported figures, and a steak meal with soup near S$19 to S$20. Prices vary by outlet and over time, and all figures here are reported guide prices, so confirm at the counter before you order.
My pick: lemon lime chargrilled chicken with mac and cheese and coleslaw, plus mushroom soup. It is the classic ASTONS plate, it covers rich and fresh in one meal, and it stays near the bottom of the price range.
What sides go best with ASTONS best sellers?
Every main comes with two sides, and the pairing matters more than people expect. Mac and cheese is the most praised side in reviews, freshly made and rich in cheese, and it turns a chicken plate into comfort food. Mashed potato is the steady partner for steak, especially with black pepper sauce. Coleslaw or garden salad keeps the plate fresh, which helps when the main is rich, and onion rings add crunch that a soft plate otherwise lacks. The smart move is one rich side and one fresh side, so the plate never feels heavy all the way through.
