Putok Batok Gang — Restaurant in Olongapo

I dragged the friends to Zambales with one mission: beach and then find amazing seafood.

I’d heard my officemate talking about a crab place, and after some online search (and getting totally misled by Google Maps), we found it! Pro tip: Use Waze instead—Google had us wandering. Also, shoutout to their Facebook team—super responsive and helpful in guiding us there.

We ordered the infamous comatose bilao, said to be good for 8–10 people.

Now usually when places say “good for 10,” they mean “feeds 5” But when this bilao landed on our table—Amber-sized bilao, by the way—we were stunned. And there were only four of us. I felt excited and slightly threatened by the amount of food staring back at us.

Verdict? Very sulit at ₱2,300.

It was the best paluto we’ve had in a long, long time. Every bite was delicious. Even their pinakbet—hands down one of the best version I've ever had from a roadside kainan.

If you’re ever in Zambales, you have to swing by this place.

Just don’t come too late—they take last...

Explored the place thanks to Google searching engine and gave it a try. It is not bad. We ordered shrimp and crab rice meals, and mine is a crab meal. Both come with local drinks gulaman. Food portion vs. SRP is acceptable. The shrimp is fresh, but it is not really that freshness of the crab. I preferred Male crabs, also mentioned twice, but they served the female one. The sauce is the good as it, taste is balanced of condiments. Downside: limited parking space for car. Not that much choice of vegetables as my preference. I hope they will serve fresh crabs and more vegetable dishes. Definitely, we will go back to try other dishes on the next visit to Olongapo. Last but not least. Customer service is good 👍 Could be an option for an affordable seafood trip...

A house that is converted into an eatery that serves grilled barbecues and Seafoods. While we managed to park infront of the store, the space has a very limited parking. We ordered Mixed Seafoods Overload with "more of Shrimp and Crabs", and fried rice. This is our 1st time here and haven't tried other dishes. The Shrimps taste good and fresh especially dipped in its sauce but the Crabs weren't as fresh and are very skinny. Ordering Shrimps Bucket would have been a better choice and value for money, I guess. Also they only accept cash payments. However overall experience is still good and the food...
