I have always loved this and the best thing is, they never disappoint. From the beautifully appointed tables and luxurious interiors, you know this is an upscale experience the moment you enter. They once had spectacular views of the bay but now what you see is the process of reclaiming land - ugh. But never mind, it doesn't take away from the wonderful experience. Service is fantastic too. Very warm, friendly but respectful, mindful and solicitous. So deserving of 5 stars. And the food..... every superlative I can think of goes to their Peking duck. Their menu is extensive and every order we made just kept getting better. You can't go wrong. It is a bit pricy but this is a perfect example of you get what you ay for. read more

A must try when in Manila! Fine dining restaurant situated in Conrad Hotel. It must be the best Chinese restaurant I had so far. Ambiance is spacious with very elegant feel, also with smart casual specifications by the reception. Servers are very attentive, first class service. Food is flawless, more than what I expected! Hands down to Chef Jereme Leung! Very impressed with the truffle bao made in a shape of mushroom! A must try! read more

So I was told that China Blue has one of the best Peking Duck in all of Manila. My cousin who lived in Hong Kong, said that China Blue was even better than Honk Kong. But I was also told that reservations are very hard to get. God was looking out for me, because we got a reservation. The Peking Duck was great. So delicious of flavor and the proper crispness of the skin. Also they give you everything you pay for. There was plenty of crispy skin, thin slices of duck breast, and had it deep fried for the 2way. We also got a few of their popular dishes like the truffle mushroom buns, the grouper and a beef tenderloin with asparagus which was so tender. We also got a pork with tendon hotpot. Fall off the bone with intense flavor. This will be a top spot to visit when in the Philippines especially when you're in the Pasay area not too far from the airport. I'll have to do some research if there's a China Blue in the USA. read more

I ended up eating at China Blue several times during my stay at the Conrad Manila, and honestly, it became a bit of a comfort spot for me. From the very first visit, the staff made me feel at home. They greeted me by name each time, which I really appreciated, and were always warm, respectful, and upbeat. The menu is massive, which can be a little overwhelming at first. But once you start exploring, it's easy to find favorites. For me, the standouts were the seafood soup, the roasted duck, and fried rice with diced chicken, Chinese sausage and tomatoes. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and well-crafted. Also had the roasted chicken, which was equally delicious. What really surprised me was the pricing. Given the elegant setting and high quality of the food, I expected it to be pricey. Instead, it turned out to be very affordable, especially for a hotel restaurant. It felt like you were getting fine-dining quality without the fine-dining bill, which made the whole experience even better. The vibe of the place was also memorable. One night, I counted at least four birthday celebrations within an hour. The staff had fun with it, bringing out cakes and singing, and it made the atmosphere feel lively and full of life. It's clearly a favorite among locals too--not just hotel guests--which says a lot. If I stay at Conrad again, there's no question I'll be coming back to China Blue. The convenience is great, but what really wins me over is the combination of flavor, service, and a welcoming environment. It's more than just a place to eat; it's a place you actually look forward to returning to. read more

"Hands down, this place is WORTH IT! Yes, the prices are a bit steep, but trust me, every cent is justified. The ambiance is straight fire - sleek, modern interiors that'll make you feel like you're dining like royalty. But what really gets me is the food - creative, bold flavors that will leave you craving for more. Service? Our server was attentive without being overbearing. If you're looking to splurge, this is the spot ! read more

If you are looking for the best Chinese restaurant in Manila, Philippines, you have to visit China Blue at the Conrad Hilton. This is the bastion of highly acclaimed Singaporean chef Jereme Leung, who has practiced his master culinary skills in Hong Kong. His many awards and accolades in gastronomical contests are showcased on entering the restaurant. I was told that the 8 chefs who work in the glass kitchen are recruited from Hong Kong. The decor and plate settings in the restaurant are high class and something to write home about. We ordered shrimp and pork steamed dumplings, large steamed mushrooms, shrimp with beans, chicken stir fry, fish, eggplant and tofu. All these dishes were extraordinary, oozed with freshness, flavor and distinctive Chinese tastes. We also had fried rice. For dessert there was a lychee dish and we also ordered the mango custard. Both desserts were exceptional. Service was superb. This restaurant is undoubtedly, the gastronomic high temple for all devotees of Chinese cuisine in Manila. read more

Looking for traditional Chinese, This is your spot in the PI. This restaurant is located at the Conrad and a bit on the pricey side, but it's worth it if you are in the mood for Real and good quality Chinese food. They serve Suckling Pig & Roasted Duck (Call Ahead for these items). They have Dim Sum for Lunch and Dinner service is considered high end dining so dress nice and bring your wallet. We had both Beef options, Sautéed and Hot pot, Had the Tofu which was a bit soft for me but packed with flavor. The prawns were great and Dessert was nicely plated and not over sweet. Service is on point, well it's the Conrad so it has to be. Overall 8/10 read more

I've been wanting to go back here and finally we did tonight! The ambiance, the excellent service, the delicious food and the wonderful staff has not changed! It's still one of the best restaurants in the Philippines (in my humble opinion) We ordered the Peking duck, the bird's nest soup, the scallops with vegetables, the Wagyu beef cheeks and the XO fried rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and the Peking duck was prepared table side (and a second dish was prepared). Unfortunately we were still on a diet so we just took home the second duck dish. Kudos to Jane, Chelle and Dunn for the fabulous dining experience and for the yummy sorbet dessert!!!!! The friendly and courteous attention we received from them was much appreciated! Again, highly recommend China Blue!!!!! read more

Located at the Hilton, Jereme Leung has created an amazing eatery that you will want to come back to again and again. It is expensive so save up, but it sure is worth it. The space is warm and welcoming. The service is perfect and the seating is comfortable. You will never feel rushed so sit back and enjoy the marvels of Chef Leung. You must make a reservation and make it now. China Blue is a modern interpretation of traditional Chinese food, delicately crafted as if each piece were a little work of art. Too beautiful to eat you might think, but I was able to get over that in the first bite, just Oh My God. Start with tea, yes tea. You must. The restaurant has Organic Superfine Dragon Well Long Jing Green tea and some dim sum to match the flavor. The Chinese barbeque dishes, get the Golden Roast Duck with Osmanthus and Rose Bean Sauce in Momo Wrapper, are melt in your mouth tasty. The beef is also great. But, if you won't be back soon to China Blue you must have the duck. You just must. The Australian Candy Heart Abalone with Dried Fish Maw in Superior Sauce is without doubt the best abalone I have ever had. There are various ways to have it prepared. I had the waiter choose for me and I was so glad I did. China Blue's buns are some of the best you will ever have. I had the famous Steamed Truffle Mushroom Bun. it is so cute, shaped like a mushroom and stuffed with mushrooms and truffle essence. This is an experience. Enjoy it. read more

China Blue in the Conrad Manila has glorious ambiance to behold, that invokes modern atmosphere while keeping traditional touches of the Chinese culture. This is one of the best Chinese restaurants I've ever been into with fantastic decor with spectacular view of Manila Bay. The food presentation was excellent for every dish and tasted very very good, from appetizers to desserts. I can't say this is the best Chinese food in Manila but comming from New York with the many top notch Chinese restaurant offerings it was up there with the best I tried.  As prices go this is real high for Manila but only one third of what yo would pay in New York with less ambiance. I was only sorry I didn't try the bird nest soup because it was 2,700 pasos , a little more than $50 USD but afterwards I realized it would have been over $200 in New York and made with lesser quality ingredients with questionable freshness. If you looking for a great place for lunch or dinner and need to impress you guess then this is the place. read more

What a lovely restaurant. I loved the aesthetic design of the place, the place settings, and the fact that you can see Manila Bay. The food was delicious and a sight for the senses, with a creative and playful take on many classics. The food was beyond beautiful, it was also delicious. I loved the mushroom steamed buns that looked like mushrooms and the abalone swans. The tea was also so fragrant and a lovely addition to the meal. It was definitely a delight and I would love to come back when in Manila. read more
