It was very close to our hotel and one of the few sit downs that offer Filipino cuisine. The ambience is nice and air conditioned inside! The staff were friendly but took forever to take our orders, bring our drinks, and serve our food. The food was average. The portions were ridiculously small for the price. One order is approximately 750PHP but it's only good for 1 person. Not worth it if you want to share or try other "ulams" ... paid almost 5k PHP for 2 people.

Positives: Service was great indoors. They were very responsive. The food was exceptional. The decor was very home like. Negatives: Service outside was less to be desired. A long wait to get our orders taken, next to no follow up checking on customers for additional orders or beverages. The outdoor experience might have been an off day for the servers (hence the docking of 1 star) but the overall experience and amazing food left a positive impression of this restaurant. Loved the food. I will return when I have the chance!

Friends wanted to take us out to try some Prime steak in Manila so why not! A bit of a surprise for the food here. We came with a big group of friends so ordered a variety of plates to share. The Dry-aged bone in steak was decent quality for APAC, but the star here was the truffle cream pasta dish! Like a lot of recommendations from others, the cream pasta is packed full of umami flavors and done just right. The purple rice here was also notably good. Overall a decent mall dining experience. I think I've come to the conclusion that in SEA/APAC a lot of good restaurants and dining experiences are mall centric.

During our most recent visit to Manila, we have dined at three different locations (actually if we…read morecount another one last year, it will be four for me). Every single location delivered the same top-notch service and excellent food. It seemed that there was always a waiting list. But what they did that was so smart was give us the menu and and an order form and that gave us the time to peruse the menu, decide what we want and place our orders. By the time we sat down, it didn't take long before our orders were delivered. The first time we dined, there were only two of us, so we ordere the small plates. Another smart idea to have the choice of small, medium and large orders depending on the number of people. We've always dined family style so we were able to taste different foods. We've ordered the essential Filipino foods i.e., different kinds of sisig, salpicao, sinigang, adobo, pancit palabok, buko pie, puto bumbong, halo halo. And every single dish was phenomenally tasty, especially for us who are all residing in the US. Manam will always be our first choice whenever we are in Manila.

We ordered the Crispchon (suckling pig), pomelo salad, Laing fried rice and Chicken Binakol. Because it was only 3 of us we ordered the 1/6 size. When the food arrived at the table we were surprised the Crispchon looked old and dried. Plus we received the front part of Lechon - chopped up jaw bone, ear and even teeth. The Crispchon pieces were too big and we asked that be chopped smaller. When it returned it wasn't much different. We all commented that they are serving yesterday's Lechon. As for the Pomelo Salad, the dressing tasted as if the coconut milk was curdled with the calamansi. We complained to the staff and we were told that we ordered we should have specified what part of the pig we wanted. Apparently when 1/6 size is ordered you get the front part. We also told the staff that we could not eat the salad. We suggested to use lemon juice instead of calamansi. The only part of the meal that was satisfying was the Chicken Binakol. Served in a bowl and coconut shell, the soup was hot, the broth was tasty with sliced ginger, camias and coconut strips. We made well known how bad the Crispchon tasted and looked. At the end we were brought the check. The restaurant did not charge us for Crispchon. I can't fault the service as it was excellent but the dining experience was very disappointing. I'm not sure on our next visit to the Philippines that we will dine at this location. Sayang.

Makes things easier logistically since relatives were traveling from all over the metro area and we didn't need to have a set time to meet. After walking through multiple malls (Mitsukoshi, Bonifacio High Street, Market! Market!), we ended the day at SM Aura. Mesa is a modern, casual Filipino restaurant on the fifth level of the shopping center. Close to Yabu and Ramen Nagi. It's a chain with multiple locations all around the different islands, all mostly inside SM or Ayala malls. They have plenty of tables inside and out. There are also a few chairs by the window outside in case there's a long wait, but there weren't many patrons at 3PM in the afternoon. Even though we were ordering takeout, they were kind enough to provide glasses of ice water and let us sit inside while we waited for the order to be prepared. We had the Inihaw Sampler, which comes with river shrimp, pork BBQ, sweet soy glazed bangus belly (milkfish), squid, scallops, pork belly, and grilled chicken leg quarters. This land and sea feast had a few charred pieces that were inedible, but there was a decent variety of proteins and it's good for sharing.

The portion was moderate and it can feed 2 people. It was hot and crunchy and the sauce was pretty good. The pinakbet with pork liempo was awesome, please keep in mind that pinakbet in some regions are cooked without the sabaw (sauce). The eggplant was definitely fried. The bitter melon and the kombucha squash were steamed well. The pork was super crunchy!!! Please also note that one order of pinakbet will probably good for 2 people but I can definitely devour it on my own! The kare kare with crispy pork was also good. The sauce was slurry and not too thick. The string beans, banana heart (puso ng saging) and bok choy were steamed and cooked well. They were not soggy but crunchy. Also the eggplant was fried and added with the sauce. When you order kare kare it automatically comes with sautéed shrimp paste. This dish alone will probably feed 4 people. Overall the service was great, we did not wait long for the food, and we were seated right away since we arrived there around 11:45ish. The restaurant was clean and quite cozy. There's one bathroom for both genders. Total of all the meals including 1 sugarcane calamansi juice refill P1745.00 (also includes gratuity charges).
