Cuisine de Iloco Restaurant — Restaurant in Ilocos Norte

We had a dinner here last week with my family at 6pm for our dinner.

Food: We have ordered one of their set meal. The dinengdeng is very Ilocano with malunggay and fried tilapia, savory vegetable soup. Take note we enjoyed every food that we ordered the Sinanglao in the picture is also good!

Location: Just a few meters away from the Provincial capitol so its a plus for us.

Place: It feels like home with some bamboo decorations inside the airconditioned area, they have an open area also and it is decorated with lights its a cozy place i can say.

Price: Compare to all the Ilocano restos I can say that this one is the cheapest! Cheap but the service was great and delicious foods!

Overall its a 5/5 restaurant for us, we will recommend this and surely we will comeback...

Rich, savory but affordable local food with cosy but classy ambiance. We had the place to ourselves at 5pm on a Monday although the place might be packed at lunch/dinner time. Outdoor seating is available. The servings of each dish (or at least just the dishes which we considered) was for 2-3 pax(as per menu) priced at 150-250php but was exactly just enough for my cute fatty husband and myself, that's 2-2.5 pax. A platter of garlic rice is 109php, glass of juice at 50php. Thumbs up for the service attendants. The food,service and ambiance are worth every peso paid. 1.5x our bill would still have...
