I went here on two occasions and thanks to my family and hungry stomach it was enough to try every cubano on the menu. The sandwiches are cut in half which makes sharing easy. On my second visit, one of the staff noticed us sharing all the sandwiches so he cut the sandwiches in quarters :) All the cubanos are very enjoyable but my faves are the Bistek, Tito Choripan and the original Pepi Cubano. The meat portions aren't bountiful but the flavors along with the crispy, buttery bread surely makes up for it. Even the dessert and veggie cubano was very tasty. The cubanos are pressed firmly so the sandwiches end up fairly thin which allows that extra crunch with every bite.

Café Cubana is a restaurant, bar, music venue located on Burgos Street in Makati; Metro Manila; The…read morePhilippines. The theme of this venue is the Cuban Revolution. The wait staff wear black berets and stylish olive drab military-esque uniforms. (Although, I doubt any guerilla ever looked as well kempt.) The décor is "tropical". I went to drink beer and listen to live music. (This is one of the few places in Manila where I have found beer on tap; although, it is more expensive than comparable bottled beer.) They have a full menu for food; they have a full bar. But before you exercise your urge to tip, double check your bill. The menu clearly states they there is a VAT and a service fee. Admittedly, Burgos Street has a reputation. But you won't find that type of adventure, unless you're looking for it.

I've never tried a Cubano before but the film sold it so well that I got so curious. I heard that a restaurant down in the South offered a Cubano that was worth a try and I decided that I wanted to try it out. Man, oh man, was I not disappointed. I was incredibly satisfied, actually. When the Classic Cubano was put in front of me, I was so ready to demolish it, manners be damned! The image of the layers of pork, cheese, jalapeno, and ham together were enough to satisfy my craving but of course, nothing beats the taste. The pork may taste dry at first but then when you continue to bite in and taste the rest, you realize why it's the way it is. The last kick of jalapeno definitely brought it home. It was everything I hoped to be and then some. The next I tasted was another burger, but this time it was two grilled cheese sandwiches with a beef patty between it. That burger is literally gluttony in food form. The grilled cheese was delicious but the whole thing honestly felt like too much for the palette. But still, with

I'd been wanting to try Filipino food, and this place came highly recommended by some locals. The food was incredible. I tried the sizzling sinigang, and it completely surprised me. The flavor was sour, savory, and comforting all at once. I also had the oyster sisig, which was crispy, rich, and perfect with a cold San Miguel beer. Every dish came out hot and well-presented. The restaurant itself has a great vibe!!! lively but not too loud. The staff were really friendly and helpful, especially since I wasn't too familiar with Filipino dishes. They explained what everything was and even suggested a few must-tries. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Philippines. And I'll definitely come back next time!

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.

The fun is inventive with a hint of traditional. We had the okoy, spring rolls, adobo 3 ways, binagongan fried rice, kapampangan sisig and because of the Thai folds around the place some pad thai which was surprisingly spicy! Good flavors, tender when it needs to be and crispy when it should be. The only complaint was it was a bit too salty and the portion was small which is okay if you re a small party but any party 5 or more would need to order a couple of the same plates for everyone to get a taste. Service was okay and friendly but super slow. I would recommend a try. Parking is nuts!

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).
