Goto Tendon Araneta Avenue — Restaurant in Quezon City

The ambiance of the place had a warm, inviting glow that made us feel welcome right away. What stood out immediately was the ever-present smile on each staff member's face,

The Beef Tendon Pares, a classic favorite, was elevated to new heights with its perfectly cooked tendon that melted in your mouth, paired with a sauce that was a harmonious blend of sweet, savory, and a hint of spice. It was a comforting dish that brought back fond memories and created new ones.

The Sizzling Beef Tendon Pares was an experience in itself. Served on a hot plate, it arrived sizzling at the table, enveloping us in its enticing aroma. The tendon in this dish was just as tender, and the slightly charred exterior added a delightful texture that contrasted beautifully with the soft, gelatinous interior.

Goto Tendon has firmly secured its place in my top 3 for pares, not just for the exquisite food but for the overall experience. The combination of friendly, efficient service, a cozy atmosphere, and, most importantly, the exceptional quality of the food makes it a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in the best tendon dishes the city...

Saw this place while looking for a place to eat.

I was actually surprised that they have a branch here.

Anyway, they have ample parking space and the staff were welcoming and very attentive. Went here at around mid-afternoon so there weren't a lot of people.

We got the goto tendon pares, fried lumpiang gulay, tendon poppers and beef pares noodle.

The pares was delicious. The sauce was sticky, sweet, well-balanced and rich. The meat was tender, and the tendon, well, it was soft and sticky. Just delicious.

The fried lumpia also tasted great. It was served hot and crispy. The sawsawang suka was the perfect condiment. The tendon popper was okay. Breading was okay, gravy was okay.

The beef pares noodles was very good. The soup tasted good and the noodles was just the right consistency. Oh, and the fried garlic rice was on point.

A...

Their goto is great. The tendon almost melts in your mouth. Serving size of the regular bowl maybe good for two, for those with smaller apetite.

The pares tendon is one of their best sellers. This is highly recommended. It comes with chili and real garlic rice. Serving size is good for one person.

Price range is around P150-160.

The open air restaurant is situated almost at the corner of araneta and bayani.

Parking maybe a challenge. You can ask permission in the neighboring buildings to use their parking lots which is usually full during weekdays. Not sure though if the case is the same...
