Very classy place in the tourist part of the city - nice restaurant with very good food on offer.
I ordered a starter - a mushroom soup - that was very tasty - a good start. A vegetable dish, some rice, some spaghetti dish and a local dish - a pork adobo - Dishes were good, nice portions, and well presented - and of course - all tasted very nice. Good food, great!
Got an Engkanto beer - a very delicious local craft beer I enjoyed while I was in Manila - had a honey IPA - excellent. Also had a few regular beers.
Service was excellent and friendly, vibe in the place was quiet but relaxing and the décor was spot on - classy.
And the bill for our big dinner with beers was a very reasonable - under 35 Euros - excellent value for what we got.
Really pleased to have ate here - not always so easy to get good food, great beers and a restaurant that knows what it is...

On the bright side, the staff was attentive, and the restaurant was clean and inviting, a perfect spot to cool off from the heat 🌤️. I’d definitely recommend fine-tuning the side dishes to match the quality of the...

All day breakfast, ala carte orders, coffee, cocktails, even fine dining experience and many more! Tapang Usa is so delicious plus the Pasta. The flavors work so well together.
