Punong Restaurant — Restaurant in Tagum

Very easy to access, just off the highway. Crabs were unavailable but the shrimp and squid dishes were good. I suggest you stick to the seafood. Chicken dishes were subpar for the price. Staff were excellent. Our server knew everything about the menu and even gave great recommendations.
