I went here as good recommendation from 3 locals that I asked around. All of them recommended this place. Ambiance-wise, it is a good restaurent with airconed areas or alfresco that’s overlooking the port and sea. Not wheelchair friendly tho as there are steep steps that you need to climb.
I ordered the shrimp salad as my appetizer and their bicol express for main course. Since I’m in Bicol, I was expecting it to be as spicy as how they say it is. Food arrived after 30 minutes despite there were only 2 other tables seated that time. Their rice was subpar, a little too sticky meaning, it was overwatered. The seaweed salad was nice in my opinion. Has good and interesting flavor.
What dissapointed me was the bicol express. It was not spicy at all. It tasted more like ginataang baboy rather than bicol express. On top of that, the meat had a lot of tiny bones that would hurt if you’re not careful in chewing. Since the place is almost manila-based pricing, you’re expecting that the food would be quality. I’m sorry but I had to send back the bicol express and requested it to be spicier. It was only the second time that the chef got it correct. But still, the tiny bones dissapoint me.
Whoever owns or manages the place, take care of the quality of your food as your restaurant is a word of mouth recommdation from locals. It would be dissapointing to waste that opportunity while it’s...
Read moreWorst experience sa restaurant ever… they told us there will be a 40 minute wait for food to be prepped, which was fine because it is a holiday… after almost 2 hours we received COLD FOOD😡. Yes that’s right they served us COLD FOOD, I’m very compassionate with the staff but when I asked who is the manager in charged they said no one.
You cannot serve your customers COLD FOOD that’s been sitting in a corner. FOOD TEMPERATURE can cause harm and kill. Cherry Gurubat You need to do your JOB and take responsibility and work with Dignity and HONESTY. Rogelio Palle you failed your staff by allowing your crew to be led by an incompetent shift lead who called you “I cannot reach him cause he is probably drunk” . The unprofessionalism with that statement makes me cringe. The graciousness of our server from Santa Elena was the only saving grace by being HONEST Respectful while we...
Read moreIt's one of the nearest resto from the Port. Unfortunately, the quality of food is not really good for its price.
We ordered pritong lumpiang gulay, it was still frozen inside when served. The 2nd time it came back from the kitchen -- still frozen!
Then the buttered chicken came and even before it landed on our table, we already saw blood coming out of it.
Sad that it was our 1st food experience in...
