McDonald’s Samurai Burger is back with new items
Fans of McDonald’s Samurai Burger can rejoice as the popular teriyaki burger is making a comeback in Singapore, alongside a lineup of new sides and desserts inspired by Japanese flavours.
Available from 20 August 2026, the returning menu includes the Samurai Beef Burger, Samurai Chicken Burger, and Tamago Samurai Beef Burger and Tamago Samurai Chicken Burger. Joining the lineup for the first time are the Katsu Chicken Tenders, Kyoho Grape Soft Serve, and Strawberry Daifuku Pie.
The returning Samurai Beef Burger and Samurai Chicken Burger are available as Special Meals from $10.15 for the single-patty version and $12.95 for the double-patty version.
For those who prefer an egg topping, the Tamago Samurai Beef Burger and Tamago Samurai Chicken Burger are available as Special Meals from $11.45.
The returning Seaweed McShaker Fries can also be added to meals for an additional $1.25.
New to the menu are the Katsu Chicken Tenders, available in three- and five-piece portions from $5.50 and $8.50, respectively. The tenders come coated in a crispy breading, with juicy meat within.
They had a slightly peppery flavour that we enjoyed, though the meat was a little dry. It would have benefited from an accompanying sauce or dip on the side.

For dessert, the new Kyoho Grape Soft Serve offers a fruity twist on McDonald’s classic soft serve, with the grape-flavoured dessert also available as an OREO McFlurry. Prices start from $1.50.
Another new sweet treat is the Strawberry Daifuku Pie, which combines chewy mochi, red bean paste, and strawberry jam inside a pink pie crust inspired by Japanese daifuku. This dessert is priced at $1.80.
The Strawberry Daifuku Pie was an interesting twist on the classic McDonald’s apple pie, with a chewy centre that added a fun contrast to the crispy crust. The strawberry filling leaned sweet, but it worked well with the mild mochi and made for a satisfying dessert.
The Samurai Burger lineup will be available from 20 August 2026 at all McDonald’s restaurants islandwide, as well as through Drive-Thru, McDelivery, GrabFood, and foodpanda, while stocks last.
