BALAI INASAL BORACAY — Restaurant in Malay

Not Recommended I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. I ordered a drink, a starter, and a main course, but the service was chaotic. After waiting 25 minutes, both the starter and main dish arrived together, completely ruining the meal’s pacing. When I inquired about my drink, which was still missing, it finally came a few minutes later.

The starter, beef tapas, was a disaster. It consisted of about seven pieces of well-done grilled beef, so tough and rubbery that it felt like chewing gum. It was honestly hard to believe it was served as a dish.

The main course was chicken with rice, but it seemed like the chicken had lived a rough life—possibly a road accident or an illness. There was barely any meat on it, and what little there was felt like it came from the skinniest chicken on the island.

Considering the high prices, the poor service, and the awful food quality, I strongly advise avoiding this restaurant. The experience was not worth the...

I have been on the island for 3 days and have been intrigued with this Inasal Eateries, so I decided to give it a try. After waiting for almost 30 minutes for my LECHON KAWALI with KIMCHI RICE, it was served to me cold. The rice was so bland, the lechon kawali was so dry and also cold (looked old and reheated), and the kimchi was stale. I respectfully told the food server about my food, and he then took it and in seconds returned the food back to me and said the plate was hot. In other words, they couldn't care less if I ate trash. I was hungry, so I was forced to eat whatever was edible on the plate. Everything took so long... from the food to settling the check. I was ready to forgive the experience, but to add insult to injury, they had the audacity to add a service charge of 10% for a deliberately crappy service. This was the first time I encountered bad people...

My sister complained about her food, but the server dismissed her concerns. Since we were just visiting and not sure about the locals in the area, we decided not to make a big deal out of it. But the food was so bad my sister couldn't eat it. Four hundred pesos worth of unedible food down the drain. And when we paid for our food, the staff deliberately made us wait for our receipt and change while there were only 1 more table dining beside us. They were just talking and laughing at the counter. Worst experience we had on the island and will not be coming back to this...
