Juan's Famous Buko de Halo-Halo — Restaurant in Tayabas

Went there for dinner, though we just really wanted to try their famous halo-halo. Serving and food were good. They serve a glass of buko juice free (that's allegedly from the buko where the halo-halo shoud be served). It just took a while to serve the halo-halo since the staff said they ran out of buko (coconut), so we waited for like 15-20 minutes, but it was ok since the restaurant is so cozy, you'd enjoy looking at the decorations.

The halo-halo was good, full of ingredients. The difference of their halo-halo usual is that it served in a buko, It cost PHP121, and I thought it was just a tad pricey for a special halo-halo.

Nevertheless, it was a good experience. Will dine here again in our future visit and will definitely try their...

Service crew was accommodating, but the food really took too loooong to reach our table. Good thing we only ordered 2 courses and 1 dessert. Barbecue was tender, a tad salty for me, and it still had a hint of "kerosene-ish" aftertaste, most likely from the charcoal. Too bad, since I really liked how tender it was. Crispy kare-kare was plated nicely. It was deconstructed, which I liked 'cause I wasn't forced to eat the beans and was able to select what I wanted on my plate. The much tauted "crispy" pork belly wasn't crispy... at all. Deep fried - yes, Crispy - no. Bagoong was spot on

Buko halo-halo gets a passing mark. But I must confess I've had better ones before. And oh! Coconut water is refillable!

Had dinner here last night arrived around 7pm, service was good, just a bit hard to call them because of how the resto was set up. Ordered their chicken inasal it was surprisingly juicy and flavorful, their liempo was a bit small for the serving size but was good, dynamite was unexpectedly huge and packed with flavor definitely on a mild to moderate spiciness. Of course the halohalo was really good and refreshing but a bit difficult to mix 😅 ps we left around 9 ish didn’t know they close at 8pm, thankful for their servers who allowed us...
