This place served excellent seafood, people were VERY accommodating, and the prices are low.

This place deserves your consideration, even though it doesn't have a very polished neighborhood around it.

Very impressed with this restaurant. Took my fiancé to Magellan's Shrine with no intention of…read moreeating at sutukil because I figured the restaurants wouldn't be appealing but wanted to show the restaurants. It was raining when we got out of the taxi and was met with two guys, one guy let me borrow his umbrella for 20 pesos. The other guy escorted us to the shrine and was our little tour guide, which you don't need but hey, why not. We walked down the small street and turned right. The first restaurant will try to get you to look at their seafood. I kept walking because I already knew that restaurant gave me stomach pains. The next restaurant was Manna. Seafood was fresh, counters were clean and the restaurant was as well. Great service. The waiters were very attentive and nice! They understand English and speak it slow. The owner speaks very good English. I ordered 1/2 kilo prawns and had it cooked in garlic chili sauce. Trust me I've been to many restaurants. This took me my surprise. Prawns were tender, fresh and tasty. I know my prawns and I know how fresh they are by the juiciness of the head. Then I ordered 3/4 kilo lapu lapu and they did suggest cooking it sweet and sour, I declined and asked to just have it grilled. I'm so glad that I did. The taste of the grill smokiness and the fish were great. Don't forget to do your sauce mix. Ask for chili and calamansi.. then mix vinegar, soy sauce, calamansi and squeeze those chilis. Mmmm. No need for sweet and sour sauce. Fish was super fresh, tender and not fishy. Lastly, the guso!!! My fiancé never had this and loved it! They washed it thoroughly. No sand, didn't have seawater at all so you know they took good care of preparing your food. They put in vinegar, onions and tomatoes. It was a perfect blend. Could barely taste the vinegar. It was great. Crunchy and fresh. Not too big and not slimy at all. So with the prawns, fish, 2 mango shakes, sprite and 1 San Miguel, we only paid $1,500 pesos. What a deal?!!!!

Anthony Bourdain once said Zubuchon served "the best pig ever," making this a must-stop to try…read moreCebu's famous, iconic lechon. This Zubuchon is conveniently located right next to Mactan Marina Mall and across from Robinson's Supermarket. The restaurant is spacious, clean and charming with a red and white theme that perfectly matches their logo. They specialize in lechon and this was visibly noticeable in their menu that featured a variety of lechon dishes. From Lechon Kare Kare to Zubuchon Diniguan and Lechon Fried Rice, they had a lechon dish for everyone. We opted to get their famous Zubuchon (490 Philippine pesos) featuring roasted pig with crispy skin and tender meat, along with their Zubuchon pancit (260 Philippine Pesos) and medium rice (85 Philippine Pesos). The Zubuchon was the true star! The skin was perfectly crisp, and the meat was juicy and flavorful. The seasoning was spot on and I particularly enjoyed the hint of lemongrass and aromatic spices. I do wish there had been a bit more crispy skin, but overall I was a fan. Not to be outdone, the Zubuchon pancit was excellent. I enjoyed the long, silky noodles with pieces of Lechon mixed in. This noodle dish paired very well with the Zubuchon. It is easy to see why Anthony Bourdain loved Zubuchon and why so many folks dine here. Visiting Zubuchon was a great introduction to Cebu's famous lechon!

This was the best lechon place our family tried while in Cebu. They have a platter that was tasty…read more The place is inviting and open. It's a restaurant chain.
