Shikisai — Restaurant in Lapu-Lapu

We had a delightful lunch experience at Shikisai Japanese Restaurant in Mactan Newtown. Situated right on the main entry road to Megaworld, this contemporary spot is hard to miss, and trust me, you won't want to. From the moment we stepped inside, Shikisai exuded a modern and inviting ambiance. The service was prompt and attentive, making us feel welcome right away. Now, let's talk about the star of the show – the food! I opted for the sushi combination and a side of edamame. The sushi was incredibly fresh, with a beautiful presentation and a wonderful variety of flavors and textures. The edamame was perfectly salted and a great way to start the meal. My partner went for the salmon Bento box and the pork ramen. The Bento box was a feast for the eyes and the palate, with perfectly cooked salmon and a delightful assortment of accompanying dishes. The pork ramen was rich and flavorful, with tender pork and a deeply satisfying broth. According to my partner, it was a truly comforting bowl. Overall, Shikisai Japanese Restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience. The food is undeniably delicious, the ambiance is modern and pleasant, and the location within Mactan Newtown is very convenient. Whether you're craving fresh sushi, a satisfying Bento box, or a comforting bowl of ramen, Shikisai is definitely...

Hi y’all,

I had a bonto and a ramen. Both were good. Not super delicious but decent.

The service was pretty good though. Super friendly and nice. They were quick and always available.

The atmosphere was ok. But that’s subjective. It’s very noisy in that store. The customers watched Insta, Facebook or whatever reels with sound. The restaurant has a simple setup. No music playing in the background. It wasn’t elaborately decorated with flowers or anything like that—just plain and straightforward. But that’s ok, it’s about the food right :)

Overall I don’t get why this restaurant is underrated. In my opinion it’s a solid 4 star restaurant. I’d recommend this restaurant.

The food at this restaurant is incredibly sweet and has nothing in common with authentic Japanese cuisine except for the names of the dishes. Even the tea was served already sweetened, which was quite disappointing. Considering this restaurant is located in a tourist area, they should really cater to the tastes of international visitors. It seems like only Filipinos would appreciate the excessive use of sugar and fat in every dish. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for genuine...
