We ordered several dishes to share, including the Grilled Tanigue, Pork Sisig, and Steamed Oysters. The Grilled Tanigue was the standout for me, packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to an ideal texture. The Pork Sisig was a pleasant surprise; it leaned slightly on the sweeter side, which isn't my usual preference for sisig, but it was delicious nonetheless. The Steamed Oysters were on the smaller side, but they made up for it with their rich flavor. I usually prefer oysters raw, but these were excellent. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. It was a busy night, and at times it seemed challenging for them to keep up with the crowd, but the service never detracted from the overall experience. Overall, I had a great meal and would happily recommend this place to others.

From the moment we pulled into the parking lot, it was obvious this place is popular. The lot was…read morecompletely full, and once inside, the bustling crowd confirmed it. We were a group of 14, and despite the size of our party, they had a table ready for us and even had our food pre-ordered. My aunt had called ahead, and the staff accommodated everything seamlessly, excellent service and impressive organization. We started with two varieties of baked oysters: one with a sweet, buttery flavor and another with garlic butter. Both were absolutely delicious. We also ordered the sweet-and-sour prawns, which were impressively large and cooked perfectly. The battered fried shrimp were another hit, crispy, flavorful, and well-prepared. The highlight of the meal was the "Angel Wings," also known as Diwal. These unique shellfish have white shells shaped like angel wings, making the name very fitting. They were incredibly juicy, flavorful, perfectly cooked, and seasoned just right. Definitely a must-try if you're visiting. The only downside was the open-air dining setup. Since there's no air conditioning, it can get quite warm and uncomfortable on a hot, humid day. Aside from that, we had a wonderful dining experience and would gladly come back.

The level of service felt more appropriate for a casual turo-turo stall in a public market than a proper dining establishment -- food was served with little care or presentation, and there was no sense of professionalism in how customers were attended to.

The family had a big dinner here a few years ago and that was my first time at the Granary, which…read moreis located in the Richmonde hotel. I'll be honest, that dinner with the family was quite nice but I can't really point to anything memorable, other than I liked the table settings and presentation of the food. We were a party of 40?? And they were prepared. But in staying eight (8) nights at the Richmonde for a vacation to visit family, I'm so glad we opted to pay extra for the buffet breakfast. I know, I know - Anthony Bourdain states that we should grab a meal far away from the hotel, but I actually liked it here. If you're not seated in the main dining area, by the kitchen, you'll be seated in the bar area. That's what I call the Business Class section. You may have to walk a little farther for your food, but it's not as busy and you can have a quiet conversation. As for the food, I really loved the omelettes which are made to order - I usually just asked for everything. There is a wide variety of breads, rolls, cakes (calorie counting??, not anymore), jams, cereals, there's just a ton of carb choices. My favorite was the Champorado - which is a chocolate rice porridge. Yes, this was a childhood memory in a bowl, topped with condensed milk. For protein, there was a lot of that too - longanisa sausages, beef tapa, and pork Tocino. There was a lot of fresh fruit too, and unlimited bacon. One warning, the coffee was not strong enough so have the hot chocolate instead. It was a pleasure to come here every morning and I had extra family members join me and they don't charge it to your room, so bring your credit card with you.

Batchoy is a soup made of pork and beef stock with shrimp paste, miki noodles, crushed chicharon, pork, fried garlic, egg and may add liver. Maybe this is the Filipino ramen nowadays. This is served with toasted bread Anyway, parking is difficult at Lacson St. so we had to park at one of those vacant area and walk a little. Upon arriving, there is a wait so have your name down and you can order ahead so when your table is ready, then there will be not much wait for your food to arrive. I would have to agree with one of the reviews that the Batchoy had more liver than usual and it was salty. The single calamansi (Philippine lime) will not be enough to counter the saltiness. Despite that, I still say it was worth the walk in the rain and going back to eat again.

The shake was really good (not too sweet) and the cheesecake was surprisingly good, too. I was disappointed with the bibingka - burnt and no flavor.

Ordered Crispy Pata, Kare-Kare, Fresh Vegetarian Lumpia, Ube Sago (Boba). Crispy Pata is pork leg with skin & bones boiled till tender & deep fried, crispy, so tasty. Be careful of bones tough on your teeth. Kare-Kare is beef stew with peanut sauce, thick & creamy with Pechay, like Bokchoy. Fresh Vegetable Lumpia is veggies wrapped in crepe like wrapper & rolled. Lumpia is not fried a healthy option. It comes with tasty sauce. Ube sago is more like Ube ice cream shake with Boba tapioca pearls. Ube is purple yam, Also good as a dessert drink. It's so rich, creamy & delicious. Nice ending to a great meal. Needless to say I rolled out of the restaurant with leftovers for my next meal in tow. The restaurant is in Robinson shopping mall with parking available. Free WiFi is available. This is my family's favorite traditional ilongo restaurant.

A very nice, upscale resto and oh, you can bring your own liquor and drink there even if it's a black label. They allow it and will even provide ice if you like that. It's a trendy place, clean, wonderful staff. I liked this place and all the foods we had. If you know your Filipino food like i do? I highly recommend this for a nice special dinner. This is a good place.
