The 38 best cheap eats in Tacloban

Good food. Good eats. Been visiting Philippines for few days before my cousins brought me here, best tasting food on this visit.

Tried the Shell Soup, Calamares, Sinuglaw na Tangigue, Grilled Pork Belly, and a veggie dish with kangkong in coconut milk (forgot the name!). Food was okay for the price, not mind-blowing but fresh and satisfying. The place is clean and the service is superb. Great spot for big groups since it’s dampa-style with lots of options to choose from.

Disclaimer: I may have a different preference from you. :) Together with colleagues who were mostly first-timers, we made sure to go to Ochó because we heard good reviews about the place. We ordered a lot: liempo (plain and with marinade), halaan (in photo), garlic and butter scallops, cheesy scallops (in photo), kinilaw, grilled tanigue, crab, and ensaladang lato (in photo). Upon ordering, you have to choose from the fresh seafood at their counter. Everything was great! For a group of five and for eight dishes (including beer and a platter of rice), we only paid ~Php 3,500! It's really affordable and sulit.

Amazing food, especially the seafood — you know it’s fresh. They also have local varieties of dishes if you want to have a more regional experience. The food is also priced well.

Staffs are very professional, food & presentation was perfect, priced are reasonable, delicious food, I will surely come back

Food is top notch, ambiance is cozy. Best resto of Tacloban.

Ocho Seafood totally blew me away. The grilled octopus was insanely good, and the shrimp tacos were packed with flavor. The vibe was chill but classy, and the staff made us feel right at home. The Cocktails are great too. Everything came out fast and fresh. I can’t wait to go back, this might be my new go-to seafood spot.

Do not go here its a rip off. They pretend to be a high end cafe but its just an excuse to skimp on food and rip you off.This restaurant is skimming you on quality and content of food and delivering little to nothing for your money. I started with the chicken garlic quesadilla which was basically a tortilla with the barest ammount of cheese possible pretending to be fancy food with a tomato drizzle. Very empty and bland with nothing I. There worth the price charged. Next was the Asian chicken which was basically an attempt at curry, dreadful and Unapetizing the bland white rice was the only thing edible on the plate. Do not go here it's over charges dramatically for an off the path tacloban resto pretending to be a high class Cafe. The final insult is being ignored for 30mins when they see your not ahppy or liking the food or eating I'll take my chances with the street vendors and toilet at least it'll taste good going down

I used to eat here years before they really had a good and tasty food, but seems like now, the taste is not same like before. Carbonara was overcooked a bit bland the bread was chewy could not even bite on it not sure if they toast it but it was chewy, the quesadilla was ok, pepper pork was ok but never tasted like without pepper. The place it self has no exhaust inside restaurant was full of smoke (when grilling) it was a bit uncomfortable.

We ordered rum ribs and nachos salad. The rum ribs came with rice and a very very small portion of coleslaw. The whole serving was just enough for the three of us. It was good enough. The meat was very soft, which I liked. As for the nachos salad, it still tastes good but I really miss their old version of it which had ground beef 🥲

Very accommodating and their service is good even though they are samar locales but I think the owners like miss wenceslau is thoroughly taught them well to and the food is great especially the pasta and the ribs that I enjoyed. My experience here fantastic that the owner has talked to us 2 hours past.

Nice quiet restaurant. Not very visually pleasing as you walk in and the floor is in need of possible remodeling. Good selection on the menu but one of the items I wanted not available. Food was good and price reasonable. Overall it's an okay place to go.

Great experience! Rum Ribs were tender & definitely a must try 👌 Nachos were also good and though not that crispy, loved the sauce & cheese 😁 Good place to chill tho ⭐

Craving for the famous Rum Ribs, but sadly they sell out real fast. Nacho Salad is an all-time favorite starter. The Non-alcoholic Sangria is a good choice of drink for sharing.

The Special Halo-halo is not great. I like the traditional kind with crushed ice, condensed milk, Kaong and Nata de Coco. I ordered Bangsilog and it was perfect. I love the fired rice a lot. Three stars because the Halo-halo was not satisfying on my taste. I am old school and I like the old way/taste of Halo-halo. The staff are great.

Very cute concept! This is a great place if you want to take aesthetic, instagram-worthy photos. The dish names are so witty! Check it out in their menu, a.k.a. their “Me ‘N U” 😉 I used to come here just for the vibe because I wasn’t a fan of their food; but it’s definitely improved over the years. The service was great too: the staff were polite, and we didn’t have to wait for long at all. This time, we ordered their burger steak, Vietnamese chicken, and spicy cheese sticks. Burger steak - 7/10 Vietnamese chicken - 8.5/10 Spicy cheese sticks - 9/10 Worth the try 🥰

Chanced upon this super cute café/resto while looking for a place to work. Sayang, there was even a power outlet pa naman, perfect sana for quick work but our Globe pocket wifi didn’t work well inside, so we just ate quickly and moved. Still, the food made up for it! We tried the bangus and liempo rice meals both tasty and reasonably priced. The fresh veggies really stood out: loved the ensaladang talong with the liempo and the kamatis ensalada on top of the bangus. Total was ₱590 for 2 meals sulit na, meals like this would cost way more in Manila! They also accept card payments BTW

Very cozy atmosphere at this venue. Nice menu selection, and the food came all together. Tasty eating. The decor is very nice as well as the staff. Prices are very reasonable and you definitely get your money's worth. Limited parking because of busy streets, but there are about three parking spaces in the back. Have to kinda drive through the restaurant to get to them. Haha... We will be coming back again.

The place here has improved a lot in the years including the decorations that Chewlove has. However it is just ok. The iced tea is delicious and the french fries are absolutely plentiful however the baked mac they served me felt odd because the sauce is too watery and it does not have enough cheesy options. Although the chicken and waffles are absolutely a perfect combination including the wedges but the salad just felt out of place.

Food: 3/5 We only got the snack menu. Mostly had the gold digger. Service: 4/5 The staff were great! They took special care to our orders and catered to us. Atmosphere: 4/5 The whole ambience is very chic. The pastel colours blended so well and especially took a liking to some of the chairs they have.

Great food. Cozy ambiance. Easily located at the city and is accessible. The nearest malls, hotels, and other fastfood chains are all just a tricycle ride away or if you enjoy walking you can certainly do so and be at your destination within 15-20 mins. I was told that parking was available inside but I'm not sure if its true.

Good area - rlly good ambience, couch by the entrance window was extremely comfy Food and drinks took way too long. Air conditioning was weak. Pizza okay for the price (330). Standard drinks~

Ordered simple brewed coffee (just okay, no cold drinks that day since there was no ice delivery), biscuits were a bit stale, but prices are decent. What really made us stay was the ambiance... so homey with a vintage aesthetic. Heard from a local this is one of the OG coffee spots in Tacloban, definitely worth a visit if you’re traveling here

This is a very comfy and casual, kind of older world coffee shop and restaurant. The vibe is very nice. The food was tasty.

Former house turned coffee shop. Has great character and dim lighting. Good for meetings or dates. Coffee and snacks are delightful, but I would recommend that HOT coffee be served in coffee mugs and not glass cups (suitable for cold coffee). So thankful I found this place. However it was disappointing to see people with their dirty feet on the furniture listening to videos without earphones. I hope management increases their prices to prevent these type of people from ruining the wonderful atmosphere. Also, I know it’s Christmas, but why is it necessary to play the same songs over and over and over and over again? It honestly takes away from the experience...

Place was hot when we entered, AC couldn't keep up with the temperature. Coffee was meh, mas masarap pa Iced Mocha sa Jollibee. 😢 Also, their comfort room is disgusting.

My first ever coffeeshop experience is in this place almost 20 years ago. I love this place. Still standing tall and strong after the typhoon haiyan. Their coffee and cakes are still Delicious and affordable. They still have the hip and quaint designs. The staff are very friendly and full of smiles. Best coffeeshop in tacloban

The coffee experience in Jose Karlos never gets old... Memories of friendship and shared experiences and ideas over coffee on this place are treasured with this place. The coffee and place is still one of the best in town amidst growing competition of new and young shops...

While travelling to Tacloban we have sent our orders through Messenger. It was convenient, and the only thing to do is come to the restaurant and wait for the food to be served. The ambience is nice, very upscale. I ordered beef tapa with egg and sprite in a can. The plate was oily. I understand the the egg and tapa may be oily in the cooking process, but there was so much oil in my plate, including my rice. Beef was not tender enough too. I tried the buttered chicken as well. It was oily too. It lacks butter flavor. My friends' drinks arrived on our table, but my sprite is still missing. I asked the waiter for my sprite.

It is really good to eat here. They have the tasty sizzling sisig with a fresh egg, their calmares is crunchy but the cheese sticks felt off because it is not made with mozzarella and the specialty bullalo taste usual like it's from a canteen area. I may come again to try new options

Had Crispy Tenga , Bangus Sisig and Bulalo. The Crispy Tenga is defintely a game changer, it was my first time and it was so crunchy and juicy. Bangus Sisig was also one of my favorites. Bulalo was okay but still good. It wasn’t crowded when we got there.

Dont go on rush dinner hours as you might wait long, like I did. The food also comes after a bit of waiting time. They are only a few staff and the cashier is still done manually. But food is good. Maybe i will avoid rush dinner times next time.

Good food. Bulalo was good compared to others I've tried. The pork sisig was just okay. Not that crowded as well.

I love their bulalo and their cool ambiance. The music will take you the 70's and 80's.hahaha When you just wanna chill out with your friends and listen to some famous old songs while appreciating some art,you should try coming here.😊

Although the outside looks like an ordinary eatery, you will be amazed with is inside. The area is spacious. There is an open area and a place that is air-conditioned. The food is great and you can ask for best sellers each time. Try their Bulalo too. They are promoting Tacloban City's tourism so you can ask about the places to go if you want to take a tour. They sometimes have occasions and have live bands.

Recently visited this meriendahan in Tacloban as recommended by our local friends. The cheeseburger (₱55) is really good for its price, and the caldereta rice meal (₱140) is flavorful and filling. Both have that homemade taste you’d want from a merienda spot. The place looks newly renovated, bright, clean, and well-lit, with lots of tables and chairs, plus air-conditioning. Parking is a headache though 😭 It’s hard to find a spot right by the resto, so we had to park farther away and walk.

I usually don’t review fast food but this is a local restaurant in Tacloban and they have been around for a while now they deserve the shout out. The food is still great. My favorite meat roll is still delicious. This used to be my favorite dining place when I was in college so I am glad to be back. The breakfast meals are better than the popular fast food chains nearby but the coffee is too sweet. They have really good desserts.

The ambience inside is calm. They have nice food with very affordable prices. You can find a co-working space in the second floor for those who are into collaboration. And oh, they're ice cream is very tasty with lots of delicious mixtures! Update 2024: My second time coming here and this time, with my wife. Had a great time and the food's delish!

This place is one of the oldest fast food in Tacloban. The food taste still same especially grilled pork (even though the port got smaller) Halo halo and daing na bangus was also good! budget friendly. Only one of the cashier was a bit moody not even smiling. But all in all this place has good food must try in Tacloban.

Fahrenheit has always been a staple of Tacloban City. Their menu has had a few tweaks and updates but the taste has always been the same ever since the nineties up to now. It still is savory and tasty. From their fried chicken to the fries and their beef curry. I wish they still had the sweet and sour pork though. It was my favorite. Oh and the prices, still affordable! 👏 The other side though is that the customer service is still the same, not that great but tolerable.

Always love the food here. It's yummy and cheap. Highly recommend the gulaman.

Food is great and affordable! The staff are friendly and nice.

Went here for a snack and tried their spicy spaghetti. It wasn’t what I expected but it’s fine. Though it could be a lot better. Their iced coffee is definitely a no-no for coffee lovers like me. It was so lacking! 😅

Nice place but for an espresso you better go somewhere else if you find another place. This is not the place. But many coffeshops just don't have espresso here. Espresso is a big problem in this city!

They serve affordable and yummy meals. Fast service and friendly crews. Nice ambiance. I only have one wish, comfortable chairs.

Fine Patisserie. Has a lovely design & theme, which helps define the establishment as one that stands different amongst others. Serves an array of dishes and pastries, all of which taste great.

Generous amount of serving for their meals. I tried their bestseller macha cupcake for Php 55 (approx. USD 1.1), I think it needs improvement to taste like more macha.

Had a cake made for my fiancee. Absolutely beautiful work the flowers looked real and the cake was made to my specifications.

Food is great.. Cozy and quiet place to talk with friends or just to chill.. Service is great.

I've been here every day while I was back in Tacloban. They have the nicest watermelon shake and the coffee is pretty good too. It's a nice ambiance here to chill too. Staff are friendly enough.

i love the ambiance,and the books. Good for casual talks and good for groups.

Cozy place. The size of the cafe is small. I like the books. I would love to stay there and read but some of the really good books are wrapped in plastic. I ordered the mango shake, it was delicious. The sweetness level is alright.

Before Typhoon Haiyan, this was my favorite bookstore. It was a coffee shop and bookstore. Today, it remains one of the best place to hang out with friends or go for a date or spend time alone. I usually order my favorite Ham and Cheese Panini paired with a fruit shake before roaming around to see the books they sell. One just have to be patient in rummaging through the books and finding a book which you can buy. I hope the owners can replenish the books that they are selling. I miss the thrill of finding a rare book at a reasonable price!

A quaint, relaxing place in this part of town. The warm, hospitable owners and staff make their coffee and cakes taste even better than as it is. Looking forward to step into this special place again.

Been visiting this place since college and am delighted everytime I do. The place is cozy, food is great at reasonable price. I'm happy this café continued operations even after Yolanda. Been visiting this place since college and am delighted everytime I do. The place is cozy, food is great at reasonable price. I'm happy this café continued operations even after Yolanda.

True to its name, they have free-to-read books. However, the place has poor lighting if not for natural sunlight. If you intend to read, it's not very conducive. Hope to see this cafe endure in the forthcoming years, though.

The seafood pasta was very good with the squid being a little on the chewy side and the prawns were average - if these were a little fresher then this restaurant would’ve earned a 5 star rating. The grilled salmon with lemon butter was excellent. The margarita was way too sweet but so was the service and what a great view 😎

Delicious food, fast service and the atmosphere was nice. For dinner we had Kare Kare with bagoong, pad thai & pork bbq. Loved the Kare Kare btw! 😋 I loved their American Breakfast as well 👌🥞

We stopped by for an afternoon respite from the scheduled outage and hot weather. We were met by good service and warm welcome by Shanen and Jezebel. They were attentive to our needs and we felt comfortable all throughout our dining experience.

I cannot express how satisfied I am when we dined in here. First of all the ambiance is very elegant yet cosy, the staff are very helpful when guiding us in their international menu. They have American, Filipino, Japanese, Itallian, Thai and Chinese cuisine. I am amazed at how they are maintaining such menu. We tried their Thai cuisine and let me tell you the food is superb! Their Pad thai is unforgettable, fresh and super tasty. They definitely have a happy cook in here because we just tasted a happy food. 5 stars for Q Kitchen. We'll definitely come back here.

Best meal and restaurant in tacloban. Hands down. Don’t even waste your time at Ocho, based on high google review scores like we did. Wish we found this place sooner than our last night bc we would have eaten here EVERY day. It’s that good. Reasonable prices by western standards. We really enjoyed, especially the house salad, lamb chops and kefidedes (stuffed meatballs). The tenderloin was tough though. Tasted more like a pot roast presented as a steak. Excellent service.

A heart-warming place to eat with the people you love. The waiter and waitress were polite and certainly knew what they were doing and that is to bring excellent service to their customers. Their menu offers variety of cuisines that truly riddled my tastebuds. A sure place to go when sophistication plus food are in mind. Two thumbs up!

Try the Greek food. Even though the waitress didn't know what they really sell there, the chef definitely knows it. Maths also might be little problem. The bill was 2.100, I give them 2.500, my change was 300???

Amazing baked lasagna! Great pork chop.. fantastic service. Just an absolutely perfect place to enjoy an excellent meal and then top it off with the 3rd best tiramisu I've ever had in the world!

Nice authentic Italian-Filipino restaurant. Known to be an institution in Tacloban for some. Everything we had was delicious. Glad I was able to visit! More pricey than other restaurants in the area but it is worth it.

Good food & service in the 3 times I’ve been here. Not a fan of the “sauces” for the porkchop & the steak. The meat is already good - simple sauce will do instead of the thick onions etc.

I have been wanting to visit this venue for awhile now. Finally had the opportunity. Nice atmosphere as you walk in. Kind of an Italian feel to it. Bottle of wine on the table as you sit. Not a large menu but has a variety of items to order. Being an Italian restaurant the first thing that came to my mind was lasagna yum 😋😋. Hmmmmm unavailable 🥺🥺🥺. Ordered the ravioli instead. The two long skinny breadsticks that were brought had a cheesy taste to them. They were good. I ordered ravioli, minestrone soup, baked scallops and a side of garlic bread (not included with meal), iced tea to drink. Wife ordered grilled pork chop. Took a little while for the food to come. The lettuce salad was good, croutons crunchy a nice light dressing. The soup was very good. You could tell fresh ingredients were put into the soup. Veggies were nice with a little crunch to them. Ravioli was okay. Tasteful. Garlic bread was on sourdough bread. Love sourdough bread. The pork chop was absolutely great. Like melt in your mouth pork chop 🥩. Iced tea good with a nice taste of lemon. The baked scallops were very good. Very flavorful and cooked nicely. Overall it was a nice experience. Needless to say it was a little pricy but good. More of a high end restaurant. Maybe we will come back some other time.

This is by far the nicest restaurant in the city that I am aware of. And surprisingly, the prices were not bad at all, nor were reservations required. The thin crust 4 cheese pizza was delicious and cooked in a wood oven (although gorgonzola is not my favorite cheese, it was still good). The lapu lapu fish and shrimp were excellent. The menu was filled with delicious Italian dishes, including items not often found in the Philippines like many beef items and so on. Plus some Filipino options. Also, a fine wine/spirit and desert menu. Service was very good overall. One of the female staffers seemed unhappy. Not rude, just unhappy. I hope she is alright. Wait times for food were very reasonable. And limitless free water. Tips for improvement: Mashed potatoes could have used more salt. Also, when a customer asks for salt, you need to bring them finely ground salt, not course ground flakes. Overall, a solid 5 stars for Tacloban. I would eat here several times a week if I lived here. The quality, price, and menu all make for a very well deserved 5 star rating.

It’s the best italien restaurant in Tacloban. Everything was absolutely delicious. The owner who’s living in the Philippines for 32 years is Italien too. So the food was very authentic.

Great Italian restaurant. We had some bruschetta, pasta dishes, and wine. All food and drink was 9/10. Be aware that servings are generous and the food is rich, we accidentally ordered more than we could eat. It's a beautiful and personal little restaurant that will make you feel like you stepped into a family restaurant in the Italian countryside. The staff are well kept friendly and professional. They are a credit to the business. It was quiet early on, then some music later

One of the best halo-halo my taste buds can remember, lol! Actually, we only bought halo2 for dine in and dropped by for a muffin before going home. I like the place. Cool and serene despite the sultry, noisy streets. We even charged pur phone here while dining. The touch lamp was my first time i had some fun with it lol! Dream Cafe is also close to Divine Word Hospital-very easily found and accessible. Going back to our dessert, yeah we only had halo2 since we already had lunch in Chowking. Chowking halo2 wasn't an option for my wife so we looked for the closest one and this was a stone's throw. Their halo2 was fantastic and rich in flavors with only a tiny hint of ice. I didn't have to mix it heavily for that but its how I like my dessert consumed. They also had a muffin called Orgasm but we bought the other one.

A bit on the pricey side pero masarap yung food. I got tacos and halo halo. Halo-halo was really creamy. Attentive and funny yung staff haha. The place is under renovation though so outdoor seating lang available and no cr.

One of the cool dining places in Tacloban downtown area. The place is welcoming and the staffs are very courteous. The menu is primarily dominated by Pinoy foods. Not so satisfied with how the food taste though, thus the rating of 3 stars only.

Everything on the menu has been excellent. The pizza in particular is really well done with heaping toppings. It's also the only place I've found that can serve a good chilled salad.

Apologies for low quality pics 😅 I've been here a couple of times before and the food they serve are consistently delicious 👌 Service is great as well 😁 Definitely recommending this 💪🏻 Also, you should definitely try their whiskey sour 🍸

The cafe is cozy and quiet. It's clean and the service is good. The cakes they serve aren't the best for my taste though.

Good food but portion sizes getting smaller each time I order. Used to be very generous portions but now plates have 40% less. Rice remains the same size 😂 Kinda dishonest. Been a loyal customer for years but may be my last order for a while.

Food is good & creative. Ambiance could be better. Foot traffic not too much in this area. Best to boost on social media again, could be a good coffee shop as well since the space is ok

The food was good, but waiting almost two hours to complete the orders was ridiculous. It was extremely hot inside, and the smoke from the kitchen was overwhelming it really stung my nose. I’m never coming back.

cheese rolls tasted oddly sweet . i always order cheese rolls , but they weren’t that good when i bought them as of now .

We've been to this branch thrice this year. The food is pretty good and the prices are reasonable. Good value for money. Unfortunately, the ambience is unappealing and the place is hot even if the air conditioning is on. Always slow service in the evenings. This time, their kitchen got one of our orders wrong (even though the waitress noted it down correctly) so we had the dish sent back. Later, the other waitress told us they ran out of stock for our remaining orders so we decided to just go elsewhere to eat. Probably not coming back to eat in this branch but I like the food, so will just try delivery next time.

I used to hang out in this cafe when I was younger, always with good food and a great place for asian food. Recently visited them, and seems like the cafe had been left out. Most food was unavailable and it's a nice place but too hot. air condition was down at the time I visited. Nonetheless, still a great asian resto.

The pizza was fantastic and the price was reasonable. But the place was too dark and the aircon was not that cold, also the house salad was a little disappointing and they were understaffed so the service was not fast, I had to wait till they come out of the kitchen to request for water and salad dressing.

Place is hot. AC doesnt seem to work. Place seems dilapidated. Half of the drinks on the menu are not available. Food and prices are good though.

Recommended for Family and friends dinner. Staff are attentive, though always frowning and not very welcoming. The food is delicious. They have an option for unli rice like in Mang Inasal and other short orders for groups.

Maybe this is just me; I find the inato chicken served to me different from my last visit, like 5 years ago. This used to be my favorite spot here in Tacloban.

Strategically located in the heart of Tacloban city, where you can score a delicious meal in a very affordable price. The chicken and pork bbq combo is a must try for people visiting the area. The also serve, ice cold San Miguel Beers.

The best grilled chicken ever. They also have variety of foods from sea foods to veggies and some deserts and appetizers. Great place and nice ambience. It would have also been better if they have free WiFi for customers. Overall its a good place with a good food and friendly staff. Its definitely a place to go in town.

Service was good, food was served in a reasonable amount of time. It is for casual dining and you get a good value for your money. The grilled chicken was a bit dry though but the pork barbeque was cooked really well.

Totally not a vegan resto BUT veggie dishes can be made vegan. MY ABSOLUTE FAVE is the Spicy Talong (eggplant) just tell them to remove the beef! I appreciate the waiter for being patient and understanding my order request. The service here is friendly and light and efficient! 👌🏻

A great modern Filipino restaurant in the downtown area of Tacloban. Super selection of dishes starting from a budget bbq chicken with rice at around 140 pesos up to a max of around 300. Very nice interior and seating with friendly knowledgeable staff. A must try.

Okay so we were hungry. Thought we would eat here. Waiter brought one menu for 4 people. When it came time to order. They didn't have 50 percent of what was on the menu. Customer service was terrible. The waiter looked confused and had that I don't care attitude. Being a former multi-management supervisor (10 to 17 stores) I am very aware about customer service. I will not be coming back to this particular facility. This is only one restaurant and not indicative of others I have eaten at.

Food is pretty great. Would recommend, along with their other branches such as the one in Robinsons Marasbaras Tacloban. Though in comparison, this branch in SaveMore is much more spacious, no difference in Menu and style of serving the food. I was there a week ago and some of their staff can be inattentive but can be helpful once their attention has been called. Be wary that during lunch hour it is mostly very crowded and fully occupied.

Good location and service. Economical dishes.

First time in my life that I order a Mango and shrimp salad 🥗 and in the salad there's not even ONE shrimp. Not even a little one. Incredible...

Not really Mexican food. It's more like Filipino food that wants to be Mexican. Nonetheless, they have some great dishes.

Meat was ok. Salsa was rank. But hey. It was a burrito. And we are a long way from Mexico.

The place is nice they have elevator

Finally, Canto Fresco is open again. The bread rolls are excellent as an appetizer or simply as your meal. Freshly baked pizzas and pastas . . . Delicious. Glad to have you back in Robinsons. Awesome staff looking after all your needs. See you again soon.

1. Pork Barrel: Pork belly was perfectly roasted with thick crispy outer skin and juicy meat. 2. Pesto porkchop was also well seasoned and the serving was 2x bigger than that of the pork barrel. Both came with a generous helping of rice, shredded vegetables with vinaigrette, deep fried kangkong leaf, and toasted banana blossoms. 3. Thin crust tres quesos pizza tastes of fresh tomato sauce, a plethora or herbs, and generously topped with cheese. 4. Pork Sisig ⭐️⭐️- crispy and well plated but was too salty, peppery, and dry. 5. Brown Sugar & Almond Cheese Rolls ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ fluffy cheese rolls w almonds and brown sugar drizzled lightly with honey It is a bit on the pricier side, and the plating is a bit crowded, but the food and vibes are generally very good.

The food are a bit pricy, but it's delicious and decorative. Not much issues there. Some of their meals are good for 2 persons, so it's a good place if you eat a lot. The staff are a bit unattentive, perhaps they're new I'm not sure. They have a long table, so if you're lucky you can bring a group. Overall it's a good place. Not a lot of people eats here from time to time, probably because of the price.

A decent place to have dinner in Robinson Marasbaras. I like the food here, it’s delicious and desserts are decorative and yummy. What I also love here, is because this is within the mall where you can do shopping and groceries after having your fine dinner here. Recommend this place for young lovers 😘 who wanna have date...

Food is a waste of Money. Taste 0 plus it was cold almost out of thr Fridge

Large serving sizes. Pork barrel is a must try.

Very flavorful with a reasonable food volume to price ratio!

The service is fast and the food was good. The environment is great, though it's inconvenient if it rained since there are seats outside. We ordered their Carbonara, BLT sandwich, and Iced Caramel Latte. I would recommend their Carbonara. However, their BLT sandwich was a bit dry. The food was affordable, though.

Cafe Lucia is one of the few cafes in Tacloban with a great ambience. It has a nice view of the sea and the night sky. Their carbonara is the best in town for me; creamy, flavorful, and consistently good. However, I didn’t enjoy their sandwiches, and I’m not a fan of their drinks. The menu has stayed the same for years, and it’s starting to feel a bit limited. I hope they add new dishes or seasonal items

Great location, pleasant atmosphere, young crowd, mostly students, very good quality cold and hot drinks, the snacks and main courses are very disappointing and not worth the price. You expect to get a little more for the very high amount you paid for them. In short, if you've already gotten there, then just drink only. It's not recommended to order food.

We ordered baby back ribs good for 2-3 persons it's so delicious and the chicken wings are like a max restaurant taste. Smoothies are good too! We like the cozy and romantic atmosphere here. Btw, it's near the sea! Service is great!

Nice place and great food. Its an open air dining so when the wind blows towards you, cigarette smoke from the outside dining is expected. Loved the Carbonara and the shakes.

Great place. Decent food. Bad service. Ambiance 4 Ambiance at night is great. You don't see how dirty the sea is and the breeze is nice. The lights also help set the mood. Food 4 Food and drinks is decent. Too bad service is one of the worse. Price 4 Price is great for the food and drinks they serve. Parking 3 Ample parking space since its located in a park. Parallel parking stings but better than nothing. Service 1 Dishonest staff will tell you they will give you your change after serving you, but never does. If you never ask they will never give you, your change. This is the 2nd incident.

Nice spot to hang out as it is right at the bank of the sea. Good coffee drinks with reasonable prices. Quite spacious for a coffee shop. Plenty of parking. The indoor area can get a little hot and sticky though especially in mid afternoon because of humidity. Wish they would put air conditioning unit in at least one area for those who want to chill and enjoy the view but do not really want to perspire...

Food was very good, service not so much.

I tried this place a few times. The dining area is very small. The menu is made up of standard Filipino dishes, but is cluttered and confusing. On one occasion we came in for dinner and were told they are doing carryout only; we left. On those times we did eat, it wasn't great. Rice is not especially fresh, the meat was only warm, and the sauce on the meat was cold (meaning, they cooked it first, then put the sauce on). I will come again only if no other options are available. Sal's is right across the street...

The concept is really good and the food is very affordable and delicious. I'm just a bit disappointed with their ensaladang talong, they should have called it ensaladang kamatis, you know. Anyways, I enjoyed it. And for the dessert, you really should try halo-halo. Bon appétit!

Yes, their food is tasty especially the halo halo but their customer service coming from waiters is a downside. They are lazy and very casual and unapproachable. One of the waiters was talking to a friend (customer) and as he was pushed by one of his colleagues to serve us. He gave us a look on his face like "come on I'm still chatting here" and approached us slauching.

I don't know if this was because I came in at 7pm but this was for my dinner. I ordered an affordable meal set just for one. I was looking forqard to a tasty barbecue as I was thinking that samsam is known to have good food. I am certain they have good halo halo, but for my experience, disappointing. My order was quick. It was served fast....but COLD. Cold rice, cold barbecue. I was actually ready to wait thinking hat what I ordered, barbecue, can take some time either to cook or to reheat. But dear oh dear. It was Fast, but COLD.again...Fast but COLD. And on the side was pakbet, few pieces of dry stringbeans, eggplant slices, and Okra. I only the latter as I am allergic to eggplant. It was okay, until i ate the last slicw of okra that can pass geriatrics. Jeezzz... And i agree with the other comment here, the staff is okay albeit unprofessional for being way too casual. They were serving a table where one of the staff was friends with and she would chat with them from the counter to their table about 6 meters away. Talk about Talking out loud. When i went to pay and asked how much was my bill, she was so busy giggling with the another staff and colleague she just accepted my payment without answering nor telling me how much I was supposed to pay. *facepalm.

This my second time coming first time they didn’t get the order right so one watched others eat as one’s dish didn’t get placed. Ok that time I saw a lot of panda taking order. Ok so my lady was ill so I ordered take out. The soap was in a plastic baggie. So better have a container where you take it to. Then no plastic or wood utensils to eat with. Ok so now you eat with fingers. Wait no napkins to wipe your fingers. The take out is the biggest joke I ever experienced as a 56 year old. The people are nice. But they shouldn’t offer take out. Food is good but very expensive if you take out need to purchase things to eat what they called take out.

They serve filipino dishes at affordable prices. Try halo-halo, it's really good , Just the right sweetness .

1st timer in Tacloban! Sit down menu at this fine resto. Broccoli Not a huge fan of broccoli but this dish made me finish my greens! Broccoli with a crunch! (I suggest the veggie to have more bite though) Pineapple Salad Sweet local pineapples made with a twist! Refreshing, tangy but with a spicy and sweet crust on top! Pani Puri & Tuna Taco Fresh tuna sashimi, with a corn taco that tasted just right! The Pani Puri was a bomb! Totally exploded in my mouth... sauces were spectacular! I just wanted more! Lobster Spaghetti Lobster on top of pasta! The pasta sauce ooh-la-la! You could taste the creaminess of the lobster with every bite. (the pasta can be a little more al dente) Surf and Turf The seabass hit the spot. The basil sauce and the nuts on top was a game changer. Wow! Ribeye with risotto felt like transporting to a different country! The truffle gave it a different level. Apple and honey It was so pretty and I didnt want to eat it at first. I was already full but to my surprise... i almost cleaned the plate with the use of my dessert spoon! Chef Monch, the Staff and the place definitely made a mark on me! Thanks! Highly recommended!

First time trying this venue. We came around 12 noon. Not many customers. Walking in it has a modern look to it. Very nice. Lots of room. Very clean establishment. Sitting down, we could see the bay outside the big glass windows. There's seating outside also. The food came at the same time, which was great. My soup was first for me. The clam chowder was so good that I ordered another bowl. All the food was hot like right off the stove. Another plus. Wait staff was very professional and courteous. It was a little pricy but not to bad. Overall, it was a very satisfying experience and we will probably come back and try something new.

Wife and I tried this place thinking, ok. We got a Greek salad. Strange, had candied walnuts and sun dried tomatoes. The lettuce wasn’t even cold or chilled. Soggy. I got the tomato basil pasta. Came out and Was undercooked, hard. They took it back and “pan fried” it and brought it back out to me. The cook must have put salt on it because it was way saltier than before!! I couldn’t eat it. So all I had for lunch was some stir fried vegetables and fries. Oh, and there was a hair stuck to the French fry bowl, showed the waiter and he just said “sorry” and left it stuck to the bowl. lol one and done.

The ambiance is absolutely classy, and the food here is really good! My dad got gambas, I got crispy pork belly (the title of the dish had "twice" in it iirc), and there was paella and fried chicken somewhere on the table. We also got mango shakes and various juices. We ate here with relatives and ended up getting one of every dessert, which is actually just enough for eight adults. It's as pricey as you would expect (good thing I wasn't paying lol) but the food, from presentation to flavor, is definitely worth the price. 👍🏻 Keep an eye out for the cute, friendly dogs that peek over the barricade just outside the glass doors in the back :]

Nice interior. Great service. Good food and drinks but minimal selection. A bit pricey too.

It's out first day in Tacloban and was craving for a decent meal. We came across this lovely restaurant. love the ambiance. 🩷 Ordered squid ink pasta and the seafood isn't as fresh, expected more from them but maybe I just didn't order the right dish 😞

The food ordered by my friend is delicious. The place is ours as we are the only customers. The server, Carlo, is quick to serve, who also became our official photographer. I like the place because it is well lighted and neat.

So happy to find this restaurant with fabulous food and welcoming atmosphere. Even better that they make great coffee. Highly recommended.

I love it here! The food is great too

Good food, for reasonable prices. Serving size is also hefty.

We came from a tiring field work and we are surprised and satisfied by their food. It is our first time here and we kinda get lost in finding this gem. Serving time is fast and serving size is good as well. But the price is very affordable, we did not expect the bill actually. Staff are very welcoming and approachable, reservation officer is very nice also feeding me information for the last call time and their location. Such a great experience. Will come back here if there’s a chance for sure.

I came here for a birthday celebration about 4-5 years ago. I was not reviewing places back then. Then I got invited to another birthday celebration today. The celebrant got the 2nd floor to herself for 5 hrs inclusive of the food and drinks at a very reasonable price. The food was absolutely great that I skipped my diet. I was literally bursting at the seams. As for the place itself which is in an older house, it's like blend of classic/antique old world charm with some modern finish. The bathroom is clean and tidy. I highly recommend this place for small private gatherings of about 50 persons.

1 star for the service. Most of the servers here specially the ladies are always frowning from the time that we arrived. As a client from Manila, I expected a warm welcome as this restaurant looks beautiful in the inside. Instagrammable as they say. Pero it looks like that they were trained as if they work in fastfood chains that vacant seats matter more than what they offer. There is even a time when another client approached in a not so good way, asking for our table while our group is still having our dinner. Even fastfood chain servers are better than them. Went to Jollibee Palo the other day and people there are very nice and when they ran out of softdrinks, they are very sorry. Whereas in this restaurant, they look at u while u r eating as if u can't afford to pay their bill. Such a bad experience for our group. I hope service will improve as it leaves very bad impressions in the restaurant. When we arrived, we are very happy that Tacloban is recovering post-yolanda that they already have beautiful restaurants and great food. As for the food, we love the Pochero, Cinco pizza, sweet and Sour Lapu Lapu, Baked Salmon and chicken pasta. Calamari is kind of bland. Kani salad is okay. The drinks are okay too.. love that they have wide range of drinks to choose from. The price is good. The atmosphere would have been great.

Sal’s was a nice dining experience in downtown Tacloban. The atmosphere was bright and the dining room was clean and nicely decorated. The wait staff was attentive and friendly although my first waiter, I believe he was a freshly graduated student was not knowledgeable when I asked him questions about the menu choices I was considering. My second waiter Sean was excellent. As for the food I have no complaints. It was served quickly and very hot from the kitchen. My opinion… this is a great little family restaurant that doesn’t disappoint.

Having coffee on this hot and humid afternoon. Jose Karlo's Coffee Shop coffee is one of the best coffees I have tasted but sadly, their sweets are not that good. The silvanas is dry, bloated but nothing is inside and overloaded with sugar as compared to that of Dumaguete's favorite pasalubong. I will try their pasta and meals some other days.

The place is good. Nice ambiance. Accommodating baristas. But the food is quite pricey and does not taste according to its price. Also it took more than an hour to serve my pancakes and bacon. I can literally cook this in 10 mins. Still in doubt if I'd recommend this place or not.

Not my first time here 🫶 The ambiance is relaxed and welcoming, with good coffee and a peaceful vibe that makes it easy to focus or unwind. Whether you're in for a short stay or a productive session, this café hits the sweet spot. ☕📚💻

"We want to share to the people of the world our story of HAIYAN (Yolanda) and how we rose from almost nothing. That with nothingness, we can still create something great and meaningful." - ROVINARE by Juan Karlos Coffee Shop in Tacloban City. Rovinare by Juan Karlos Coffee - an old ice manufacturing plant turned into coffee shop (rustic & industrial ambience with great food)

This coffee shop proves that there is always opportunity to everything. After Yolanda, this previous ice plant’s machines were lay wasted to 7 feet deep of water. To ensure continued livelihood to its employees, the iceplant turned itself into a coffee shop using the old wasted infra to tables, chairs and furnishings. I call these “resilient art”.

I don't recommend this restaurant for a pleasant meal for you. I used the restaurant at 8:05 p.m. -. There's a lot of new in the. restaurant, but there's no ingredients prepared. -. The food was set in a broken bowl, the bowl was dull, and all the food was warmed in a microwave. -. The service was the worst of the worst, and even though we were eating, they cleaned the floor of the restaurant with broomsticks, and sprayed the floor with an unknown liquid.

The food was so-so, nothing to write home about. Prices were also on the high side. The Air conditioner was not set to a comfortable temperature leaving me and my companions sweating through the whole meal, tried asking the waitress nicely to turn up the AC but would not comply. . No parking provided by the establishment as well, you have to be very lucky to snag a parking slot since establishment is along a very busy street.

Food was good, unfortunately they were out of many of the menu items including Chinese food standards like snow peas, celery, and tea shake somehow. Out of 7 milk tea shake flavors on the menu, 3 were available, many of the Chinese food items were not available. No Buko somehow, though it was on the menu. Why have such an extensive menu if you can't afford to stock the ingredients for them. The items that we finally ordered were good and well prepared after we returned the items that were brought to the table in error. Wait staff needs basic training in how to wait on tables. Zero menu knowledge from waiter, meant him running to the kitchen for every question about what items on the menu had in them. Wrong drinks brought out meant no drinks with food, and 30 minute time from order until food, when there were only 2 tables in the restaurant with customers. At least 8 employees standing around and one person bussing, cleaning, and taking orders. 🤔🤔🤔. Bathrooms gross, and watched the kitchen guy come out of the CR, which has no sink in it, go past the sink in the hallway, straight back into the kitchen.

We had a fairly large group and booked one of their upstairs room. It was quite loud as there was some sort of conference going on in the upstairs area. We ordered a variety of different things including fried black chicken, but the thing that stood out was the prawns, crispy, juicy and delicious. The beef was also not bad. Decent Chinese food and it is apparently the oldest Chinese restaurant in the city.

ROYAL KITCHEN RESTAURANT Tonight my family went to this affordable restaurant for birthday dinner celebration of my niece. The quality of the food was superb and very special. You can celebrate birthdays there and the staffs are very accommodating and will serve you with smile. The ambiance is so relaxing. Thank you so much Ratings: 10/10. Kudos!

Price was affordable compared to other restaurants✨🤸 The food was served in less than 30 minutes 😊 The food was delicious, as usual( we're regulars there)😋🥳💕 We love their entire noodle selection. 🤩 I like their photo booth area❤️ We complained about something floating on our water from the pitcher. The staff just threw the dirty water and returned the same glass on our table. 😅 (We didn't drink any of the service water) One of the staff (I think 🤔) was sleeping on one of the long chairs at the back, which we were planning to choose, since we are a big family.

As one of the better and cleaner restaurants in town, this has the best Chinese choices. Been here many times over the years but have experienced degradation in service and food. Serving sizes are down and prices have gone up with much longer wait times. If you're in the mood for Chinese, it's OK

Excellent western style food and also offers some Filipino favorites. Place is very small and has excellent service. Hoagie sandwiches are great as is all of the other menu items I have tried. Food is priced very reasonable.

This place is great. If you're from Texas or just from USA then this is the place where you can find all the food you miss! They even have authentic enchiladas! Don't pass this place up. The owner is a super cool guy too.

Food was very good, waitress was very attentive, fast food service. It happened that the owner was a relatives of my brother in law. If your looking for American food, have to visit this place.

Small place but nice. Just accross angelicum learning center. They have affordable food choice for the students. Mostly American dish since the owner is Texan.

It's great. Reminds me of back home when I get home sick. The food was great but portions are definitely not American sized lol

Great food at a good price. Staff is very friendly. Highly recommend.

Great food has everything on menu

Great breakfast and coffee. The chocolate chip cookies are also very good. We didn't try any other deserts. We dined in and we also had take out.

This place is truly a hidden gem! My whole family and I were visiting family here in Leyte and came to have dinner here at brews and breakfast. All their pastas were amazing!!!! Their cold and hot drinks are also to die for! From the flavor to their freshness everything was great! As if we couldnt have enough we went back couple days later to try their breakfast. And it did not disappoint!! My kids loved the oreo pancake! Me and my husband’s favorite was their spanish latte which was also good! Oh before i forget….the CHEESECAKES!!!! Specially the kalamansi flavor….WOW!!! I encourage everyone to come and try everything they have here! It wont disappoint!!

Their staff is kind enough to accommodate me right on the opening hour. The place is cozy and inviting. Cappuccino does not taste bitter. And the serving of French toast and bacon is large and tastes really good; it justifies the price. I’ll definitely come back.

Good and homey food at affordable prices. Top notch specially on the serving. Also, quite place. Good for catching up on people or work cause wifi is great. Best meatball spaghetti in Tacloban.

Coffee was good but the seafood linguine was so so. Seafood in there were spanish sardines and some sliced squid. Local tomato didnt pair well with it also. I say skip the pasta and focus on coffee or their desserts.

So cozy. Plus the food's yummy. Try their Avocado Cheesecake--to die for! This pic is choco hazelnut cheesecake, reason for you to go there! Love Love!

The drink and the food are hands down a 10/10. To add on top of that the vine of the whole place is amazing!

Food was nice, Small servings except the scallops are waist of money , Staff seem nice but not very attentive always have to ask. Maybe because I'm a Western guy . Would I go back ! NO

Restaurant attached to hotel. You select the fresh fish and seafood you want and they cook it to your liking. They also have pork and beef if you aren’t in the mood for seafood. The vegetables chopsuey is a good addition to any fish or meat dish. And they have a basic selection of local beers.

Just went here after reading good reviews. Asked what their best dish was they said the sizzling tuna steak. It was more expensive than all the others but I thought I'd try it. Didn't like it at all. Can't put my finger on what the taste is, but it's just so overpowering. I ate it an hour okay and my mouth still tastes horrible! Maybe their other things are better though. Not sure I'll go back.

Food was very good, have to wait a little longer for our food though. Waitress/waiter didn't came to our table to offer us anything after serving our meal. We could have ordere dessert but t'was okay though. No big deal for me.

The food was quite good. Sizzling beef and lechon are great.

Coming from Manila, the prices here are much more reasonable and affordable. Plus the ambience is good. Large servings. But sometimes customer service needs polishing.

The food was cooked to order, cooked well and fast, staff service was great . . . But the overall setting/environment just made it feel . . . . Meh😐. If they made even just a few minor upgrades in decor and arrangement, they could really draw in crowds and I would bump them up to 4 stars. Keep up the great work!!

You could jam here too. The owner sings sometimes, lovely voice. The walls are imprinted with various jazz albums. I bet your favorite musician is up there too.

Love the food, eat all you can. Different buffet depending on the time of day.

Cool place,good ambiance,good for group dates.

Food and music, a good combination at Julio's Buffet

Always full of great taste😊💟

Good

Great food! Very filipino flavors, pork and fish was marinated well (flavourful), pork sisig was also good not oily compared to other places. Tortang talong was also good crispy soft and can taste the smokey flavor and not oily! highly recommended. ✅✅ Authentic Filipino Flavors and affordable price.

Very disappointing food .. We ordered Shrimps in garlic and buttered sauce for take out good for sharing dw , the server said ..pero it turns out it's only 8 pieces of Shrimps..285 pesos for 8 PCs of shrimps? REALLY?! If d Naman po good for sharing Yung food better not say it's good for sharing.Thanks

Good Filipino restaurant with a coffee shop. They have the usual Filipino dish like bulalo and lechon kawali. The service can be a bit long but it’s worth the wait. They serve really good coffee.

For a Filipino restaurant with reviews stating how good their coffee is.,. You would expect they could provide a coffee? Machine not working sir! How about chicken adobo?.... simple Filipino dish yes? No sir we don't have. 😔 Don't trust any of the year or older reviews.

We tried their sisig and it is savory. We liked it. Their prices are reasonable and they have a wide selection of menu items. The place is nice and cozy and the staff are welcoming and accommodating.

Stumbled across this in Tacloban. Inviting décor. Pleasant and clean on the inside. Actually had some vegetable dishes on the menu! :) I ordered the mixed veg one with rice which was really tasty, it did come topped with some pork though! Haha Waiter did a good job of explaining things to me in English. Pretty cheap too.

Tasty food. Place is clean and the staff is nice. This place is cozy with it's industrial interior design. Highly recommended. 👍

The coffee was good. The view was great, especially from the balcony. Overall atmosphere was also great. But the oreo cheesecake I ordered was dry and tasted like it was few days old. You can also order alcholic drinks here, and non-pastry snacks.

Staff is great and helpful. I enjoyed the views outside overlooking the bay. Ordered a bottle of red wine and a slice of cheesecake. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Also there is a few places to plug computers in for those that want to get some work done as I saw a few students here too.

There are tables placed outside that will afford you of the city street. Background music is cool and the lights add magic to the ambiance. It's nice place to unwind and just chill. The price is reasonable.

All chocolate flavored Frappe weren't available when I visited (bummer 🙁) so ended up ordering Caramel Frappe which was too diluted. Place was nice and the view at sunset / night time was cool though 👌

5th floor coffee shop is still open at 10:00. Can enjoy the night city view and fresh air at the veranda. Coffee was nice. Ordered latte, caramel machiato and oreo cheesecake. Room for improvement would be on music choice, to make it compliment the ambiance, maybe more research for lounge music? All in all had a great exparience.

Love the ambiance of the place... a smoking area outside and non smoking area inside... though the view is more beautiful lutside but if there are other customers smoking outsidevand you are a non smoking person better stay inside...

Wanted to try some wine here, since it's in their name but they had only 2/10 bottles available. And they were expensive. Oh, the nachos. Had my heart broken by the nachos here. They look okay in pictures, but (gasp), they're drizzled in mustard. Never heard of his maneuver in my life but mustard on nachos needs to never happen again on this earth. It feels like what a drunk man does when he has nothing left in his fridge and starts putting whatever on his chips. God save the queen. And spare future nachos a similar fate.

It's not the first time we have eaten here. Came around lunchtime. Not full but had customers. I ordered solo spaghetti and a regular pepperoni pizza with extra pepperoni. Spaghetti was okay. Sauce was a little thin but okay. The pizza was good and had the extra pepperoni. The chicken and corn soup was good. The wife said chicken and pizza special were okay. Wait staff were professional and kind. With the exception of my pizza, the food came in a timely manner. Pizza came out a few minutes after the rest of the food. Took a little while to get the check, but it was okay. Overall, we are satisfied with the venue and will come back.

Was there but for Take Out only. From what I saw, very clean, great staff who were very polite, courteous, friendly and from the looks very attentive to guests. Food was great. Wish they had more games for the kids. They only have 1 claw game, that's it. If they had more, I would have no problem in scheduling my child's birthday party there as they advertise on their in-house TVs that showcase kids having fun and playing on many arcade games (basketball, skeeball, video games . . . And such). I only gave 4 stars based on this. Will come back for a dine-in experience and re-review.

My partner and I just ate dinner there and it wasn't a very good experience. We got there and immediately got our orders taken but it took our food approximately around 40 mins. to an hour. Getting additional orders also took around 30 mins. even though it was 2 orders only. We waited for almost an hour to get our bill and for our takeout (which we ordered around the same time we ordered our additional foods). So long story short we were in that place for more than 2 hours because their service was soo bad. idk if its because we're young adults ordering there or it was just a bad time.

The staff and manager there were very accommodating and attentive. I have a big family and we don't want to be separated for table. We just seated to a table for 4-seater, as long as we gonna eat together. The staff were concerned to us and offered other table to seat in but refused as we prefer to eat in a one table even though it was small hahaha. But then, we really needed another 1 table so we agreed to get another table but to be put beside our existing table even though we have a small space already 😂 we fitted in together yey! my family enjoyed eating together, the food and drinks were served fast. Food and drinks were good to our taste buds and went home with a stomach full. We even able to avail the Senior Citizen discount for the additional orders we had. The ambience was nice and comfortable to stay at.

Been able to celebrate a friends birthday here during our vacation in Leyte. The original plan is to have our dinner at the shakeys in Robinson's but we we're not allowed to order anymore since it is almost closing time. We opt to go to Palo branch which is definitely a good move since its way bigger and closing time is later.

Food and service was great. Experience could've been better if the AC unit was working when we were there.

Spinach Bacon Pizza ⭐️ - sparsely scattered with spinach, bland Service - they accidentally dropped my pizza on the way for takeout Atmosphere - classic

Even if the pizza here is budget-friendly, the actual pizza really tastes great and they don't skimp on the toppings. You have lots of pizza options including the type of cheese you'd like. So if you're kind of tired of mozzarella cheese pizza, try the quick melt version. This place, I believe is a takeaway and delivery hub but with the two or 3 tables I saw. Dining in could be an option. Off-street parking is available for those who are picking up or waiting for their orders.

Great pizza on a budget. Been my favorite since 2010 back in Cebu 😋

Better service than the other branch with a decent parking lot. More friendly staff and they actually answer their phones unlike the other branch. The facility is also more maintained than the other one in downtown. Decent pizza for the price.

Always our go-to pizza place in the city.

satisfied

Amazing!

😍🥰😂

They serve delicious & healthy food at a very affordable price. I like their mango shake, yellow fin with coco milk, paksiw bulalo😘👌

Delicious, affordable food and very friendly staff 😍

On this summer promo, 50% discount on viand plus free 2 cups of rice and a glass of juice... it is a wonderfall place the eat...

Overall 3.75 I ordered take out so I can really review the service and atmosphere so for now I'll give them full marks based on the photos online Parking 5 Ambiance 5 Food 2.5 As for the food... I ordered 2 different kinds of ribs... They are just ok. Not really something I will order again. Price 2.5 Basing it from the 2 ribs I ordered. Expensive for the food they serve.

Cheap food but reasonably tasty. No air conditioning and the set up is spartan. For the price of food one cannot really be choosy. Great for entertaining guests on the cheap but good tasting food, that of home-cooked quality and no frills presentation.

Affordable Filipino cuisine at the heart of Tacloban. Very hearty meal options (with vegetarian-friendly choices) paired with unlimited rice and bulalo! Avocado fruit shake is a must-try!

Delicious and affordable food. Their place is really nice.

Just a small place good if you're alone yo have some time with yourself not recommended for loud groups because the place is usually quiet. The food is decent but served in small quantity. But a good place right at the heart but slightly away from the noise of the city.

Definite my new quiet space downtown

Chill place, good for people who wants to feel the out-of-the city ambiance, good food and happy vibes staff

Cafe 22 has moved out of the down town area and is situated next to the historic building of Imelda's home. Cafe is small with a rustic outdoor vibe, fans to keep you cool, and with decor of potted plants. Coffee is doable but I would recommend to visit in the evening when it's not as hot.

Great place for coffee and pizza.

Trip

bolognese❤️

February 14, 2019 09:50PM: We checked-in at Summit Hotel. We went to Highside to take out food. We took our order then here's the waiter named GERALD. We politely asked him if someone could deliver our food to Summit Hotel lobby (thinking that it's just a few steps away from Highside), coz we do not want to wait at the restau. Then he said that no one could deliver because they do not have someone to deliver the food. But as we can see there are lots of staffs there -- they even have OJT staffs. He was insisting that they could not deliver the food. We just canceled our order. And someone came after us outside to clarify regarding our order but told him that it is canceled. They really do not have a good customer service! (P.S. Gerald threw their menu board off the table and was saying something -- he was like mad or something. That was the reason we canceled our order) Please please please have good customer service.

Absolutely awful place. Rude and lazy staff who don't care about their work. I ordered lunch for 3 colleagues - onecluch arrived after 20 minutes, club sandwich which consistrd of half a cheese slice and one slice tomato. Second dish was cold, ham urger and fries. 3rd never arrived at all. After asking 3 times where my tuna mayo sandwich was, I just got blank stares. Blacklisted.

The restaurant has televisions in all corners featuring different kind of sports. Foods are just okay, nothing impressive. They hold live viewing of sports so check out their Facebook page.

Food was excellent at the main branch in gomez st., but here at robinsons mmmmmmm... rice was suggy and cold, i ordered pan grilled chicken breast fillet supposedly with pesto sauce but to my taste twas simply gravy.. the nachos were cheap junkfood, not real... bit pricy for cheaply cooked food... for that im sorry its a two

Nice, cozy and quiet place. The food serving is kinda generous (I ordered porkchop and it's bigger than I expect 😄) and tasty as well. Meal price is 150ish with drink– not bad if you want to treat yourself once in a while. Customer service is okay but not something you want to keep going again and again. Overall, it's a place that won't disappoint once you go there. 😉

Great food..they have their signature dish, cheesy beef caldereta and pork belly.

Good Food..

It's open till late and there are ample seats but the inside of the restaurant is a bit dirty. Water on the floor and trays left on the table. Food also takes a while to get prepared. There's plenty of parking available, but it's hard to see the entrance as there is no sign, and it's quite dark outside.

I asked for a breast part chicken, but the manager said this McDonald’s branch doesn’t serve it. I received a rib and leg instead, but the chicken looked unappetizing — brownish in color, clearly showing it was cooked in old, burnt oil. It was dry, stale, and far from freshly cooked. To make it worse, the fries were also so stale and tasted like they had been sitting out for a long time. The overall quality was very disappointing, especially coming from a brand like McDonald’s that’s supposed to maintain consistency and food standards across all branches. It’s frustrating when customers pay the same price but receive poor-quality food and service. Definitely not the kind of dining experience I would expect or recommend from McDonald’s Quezon Avenue branch.

Fast service, spacious dining area but a bit messy and not too clean. Enough parking space. Location is conveniently located in Edsa - Panay Avenue

This branch is along EDSA, below the Q. Ave MRT station. Given its location, it has been a meeting place, pickup point, and stop over for a lot of motorists. The place is normally full in the evening. Their service has improved, mainly because they changed staff. Food is standard.

Ate there a while ago. The crew that served our meal is very kind, the meals are served hot. The gravy tastes more flavorful compared to the other McDo branches we've eaten. The food was served instantly.

I didn't like how they managed the store. There's no straw if you dine in with drinks (in my case coke float). It is very inconvenient. The food is okay. The place and environment is clean, relaxing, and well ventilated.

Food is great. The queue is long because it's lunch time. Thank you for giving me two pokemon kiddie meal sets even though I only ordered one.👾

Surprisingly less greasy food than other Chowking branch. Their services need improvements. The interior design is tolerable, for people ordering take-outs. I mean, the space is so small everything is jampacked and they don't have a spare room for their office (if it's even called an office at all). Will order take-outs here.

Such a good experience to be in this fast food. The crew is friendly and the food is good. Love it here👌🏻

Will give this branch a negative star if only Google will allow me. Staff are friendly, but the service is very slow. Unorganized orders , tables, and chairs are dirty. Ordered only a snack (buchi,siopao, and coke). My order took at least 40 minutes before they called me. I'm not going to come back to this branch

Offers delicious fastfood of chinese rice meals, noodles, fried chicken, and Filipino desserts like halo-halo.

Service 0/5 - The staff kept fighting amongst themselves and did not honor the priority lane for senior citizens. Atmosphere 0/5 - Tables were not cleaned properly and some flies were in the store. Utensils were poorly washed. Food 0/5 - One of the worst places to get “fast” food.

Just the way I usually remembered. I lovw their Chinese Style Fried Chicken but I also love their affordable Pork Chowfan

We went there in the early afternoon, there were not so many customers then. However, it was taking too long, about 30 minutes, to serve the meal. We ordered three meals only and no add-ons. The place is very small and the atmosphere is really subpar compared to other CK branches we went into. The store becomes easily crowded specially during lunch and, perhaps, dinner time. If you just want to grab something quick and you are alone and it is not during busy hours, you might enjoy eating there because the food was surprisingly good compared to branches in Manila.
