Café Des Amis — Restaurant in Cebu City

Attended here earlier this year. I’m deadly allergic to peanuts and all nuts. I asked the waitress if my salad or pasta has any, she said no. I respectfully asked her to check with the chef just to be sure. She did, came back and said no (my friends were there as witnesses). Ate a bit of the pasta. Felt an allergic reaction rising. Had to rush to the hospital, as my throat was closing, face swollen, fever etc. was there for about 8h then was released. I wanted to be compensated due to their negligence and bodily harm. The lawyer said they would only cover the hospital bill which was under $200. Their lawyer wanted me to sign a quit claim stating that I never asked and only informed them about my severe deadly allergy which was false as I had my friends as witnesses. Shame on them and their lawyer for not coming forward apologizing and to come up with a fair compensation. The restaurant will be...

Simply terrible. Went for Sunday breakfast. Arrived just before 11am the Cafe was completely empty although another couple arrived a few minutes later. Ordered the eggs Benedict. One with smoked salmon the other farmer ham. The two breakfasts arrived 5 minutes apart, in an empty restaurant. The English muffins were not toasted at all, the hollandaise sauce completely bland the farmers ham was absolutely not farmers ham and the icing on the cake was the side salad had brown wilted lettuce. I handed back the rotten parts of the salad to the waitress and said show this to the chef. She just ignored the request and went about her day.

Very badly managed. The other couple who walked in after us also had their cooked breakfast served before us even though our order was placed whilst they were still reading the menu.

Overpriced...

I tried the Lorraine omelette, and while the omelette itself was delicious, the accompanying salad left much to be desired. The dressing was too watery and overly sour, the croutons were unpleasantly hard, and the tomatoes were quite tangy, making the salad less enjoyable overall. The ratatouille was decent, but nothing exceptional. On the other hand, the fresh orange juice was refreshing and tasty; however, it was served in a disappointingly small cup with ice, which didn’t feel adequate for its 250 PHP price tag. The portions, in general, felt quite pricey for what was offered. It would have been much better to include a higher-quality or more filling side than the house salad to make the price feel...
