Oori — Restaurant in Pasay

TLDR: (really like 4.5 stars, if you're a stickler about service). Food is delicious and so fresh but service was a bit slow/forgetful. No music was on, multiple separate dining areas so it felt a bit disjointed and we had view of airport/freeway (which was actually kind of interesting). Hard liquor, beer and wine available.

My husband and I spent this past month traveling abroad. The first part of our trip was actually in Korea (Seoul and Busan) and the last part was spent throughout the Philippines. We love Korean BBQ and couldn't get enough so, on our last night in Manila, we stayed at the Sheraton by the airport and went to their Korean BBQ restaurant Oori.

I have to say at first I was skeptical. KBBQ in the Philippines after having it in Korea? A restaurant by the airport AND in a hotel? In my experiences, airports and hotels are not known for good food. HOWEVER, the restaurant was clean, spacious and stylish; the table was set nicely with waters and hot tea, and the selection of KBBQ dishes was great: beef, pork and seafood items, all coming with a fresh salad, banchan and greens. The best thing is, there's something for everyone on the menu! Not just KBBQ. And everything looked tasty. I contemplated a seared whitefish that looked amazing, a soy sauce marinated chicken with veggies, but there were plenty of other sides and entree type meals to choose from.

What we ordered: KBBQ Australian Wagyu MB 9 US Short Rib Kimchi pancake Bulgogi kimbap Steamed mandu White rice

Sadly, the kimbap and the mandu never made it to the table so we just cancelled it because we got full anyway, but everything else was delicious. They offered to cook our meat, which was very nice, but we preferred to cook our own. Charcoal grill and good ventilation so meat had a little extra flavor but it never got smoky or smelly in the room. Our meal came with all the typical accoutrements one can expect with KBBQ. The banchan were varied and fresh with generous refills. Wagyu was tender and delicious although for MB 9, not as evenly marbled as I would expect. Regardless, it was tender and flavorful and really satisfied my craving. We would have gone back the next day had we not been leaving.

Very happy this was our last meal! I was happy with the mellow vibe of the restaurant and the excellent quality of the food. Even though the service could have been better, everyone was still super friendly and relatively attentive. If you are staying in Manila for a long layover or for the night, it's definitely...

We arrived in our hotel a bit late and this is one of the good restaurant in Sheraton. The food servings are big and good for sharing. We just found it a bit salty for our taste. The service is very good and the staffs are very efficient and friendly. Our food was served fast and presented well. The atmosphere is very good and cozy, very good for a family setting or if you just want a quiet space to enjoy your food. The restaurant closes at 10pm. Overall it is a good experience especially for our late dinner after a long flight. The price is also reasonable for a 5star hotel restaurant and they gave us a 20% discount if you are a Marriot bonvoy member, which is...

Second time here! A real premium and fancy Korean BBQ place. Quite expensive but fair. We celebrated Christmas Eve here and was not disappointed. Enjoyed the food so much 5/5! Staff are well-groomed, nice, and accomodating. Menu is ok - wish there were more lighter dessert options but the Bingsu we had was enough to share for a family of 5 - just too sweet! Ambiance is perfect - love that there's a clean and beautifuly-designed restroom too to match the nice interiors of the restaurant....
