Ruben's Talabahan — Restaurant in Cebu

Giving it one star because of what I experienced. I went here yesterday for fishing, the place and ambience is nice. However, some staffs were just rude.

Every place has it's own rules, and I'm very aware of it. When we went there, the staffs did not explain their rules carefully with us so we initially have no idea about it. when we were done fishing, 2 staffs suddenly approached us (rudely). I explained to them how we are unaware of those rules but instead of talking with us calmly, the owner suddenly shouted at us (she also discriminated us and say plenty of bad things). We were also told that as a customer, I should have asked a lot of question, but in my defense as a customer, why didn't they just explained it clearly in the first place? After all they're the ones who knew the rules they've made.

Going here for leisure turned to a traumatic experience.

Suggestion to the owner: treat every customers nicely because they're the reason behind...

We were delighted in the flavors of "the bilao" at this spot—every bite was a symphony of deliciousness. The servings are generous, perfect for sharing among friends, family, or large gatherings. However, a wish lingers—a desire for an ice machine at every table for unlimited cool refreshment.

Weekends bring crowds, and while the food is worth the wait, additional staff could enhance the dining experience. Cooks and servers bustling, ensuring timely service and a clean table for every guest.

On the flip side, the service time stretches to 40 to an hour, posing a challenge.

The restrooms, though clean, feel limited, lacking accessibility features for differently-abled individuals.

And a designated space for breastfeeding mothers.

Despite minor hitches, the feast is worth it—flavors that linger, and...

This was my first time dining at Ruben's Talabahan, and it was a delightful experience. They offer a wide variety of food, with seafood as their specialty. If seafood isn't your preference, they also have soups and other options. The dishes are reasonably priced, ranging from ₱250 to ₱300 per serving.

The restaurant provides a spacious parking area and a clean washing area. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, which added to the pleasant dining experience.

We ordered several dishes, including kinilaw, baked scallops, shrimp, bangus, and more. Everything we tried was delicious, and despite the number of people dining there at the time, the service remained efficient.

The location is accessible as it is along the highway within the premises of Papakits. Overall, it was a satisfying visit, and I highly recommend it to...
