There was group of 4 ahead of me so my order was delivered within 10 mins. The patty was cooked well done and the cheese was oozing everywhere. Just the way I like it.

This place gave me that eureka moment! They even prepared food the way I like it. They have boodle packages for larger groups. We came just before noon so we got undivided attention from our server who was very friendly and helpful. The place was packed within minutes, but the place is huge with lots of room for social distancing. Pictures speak a thousand words, but sometimes, they don't do justice.

So we ordered a Mt. Apo boodle for the 7 of us. The food came out quickly and it was a site to behold (see accompanying pictures)!!! It was a massive plate of garlic rice, fish, meats, etc and soup in a coconut shell. The food was more than enough for all of us. And it was really flavorful and delicious too. All the food lent to each other and accompanied each other. We also had a whole chicken which was moist and delicious as well. The unlimited ice tea was good and refreshing especially while eating all these hot fried foods. Service was fast. The people were nice and attentive to our needs. Im sure if i ate with my hands it wouldve been even more of an experience!! Overall this place left me full and satisfied!!! It is a must try when in cebu!!

Best Native Chicken! [CEBU CITY Philippines]…read more When it comes to food, Cebu has a lot to offer. From savory lechon (roast pork) to sweet desserts Cebu is a foodie's paradise. But we have been eating some form of lechon since we arrived on New Year's Day so I was getting tired of it LoL! just a little. I ordered grilled chicken instead. Conching's is famous for one thing: their charcoal-grilled native chicken. What is a native chicken? They are more commonly raised in rural areas, cage-free. They are smaller in size than the regular chicken, it's because of their organic diet. Both its size and diet make these native chicken unique and more natural in taste. We ordered two servings and it didn't disappoint. So delicious, salted just right and the skin is crunchy. Setting looks rundown, nothing fancy with long tables and plastic chairs and a grill out front. Very laid back. Live music entertained the diners... young adults with music instruments. I was amused. Filipinos love to sing. LoL!Friendly service. I just didn't like the flies... we had to keep swatting them so they don't go on our food. Review #3349

Visiting Cebu City - my girlfriend raved about the Native Chicken and that we had to try it - so…read moreupon arriving in Cebu City my gf's cousin took us here... Not sure what authentic should feel like but this restaurant felt authentic considering I was the only foreigner there... One of the waiters is an interesting one - done up in a lot of make up and apparently very flirtatious and seems like he's a staple of the restaurant per their Facebook page... Anyway the native chicken cooked on these little grills but the chicken themselves are tiny - you probably need about one chicken a person. They have a lot of other grilled and friend foods including various fish - milkfish was the only one I recognized. We also tried the ceviche (local name I don't remember) but extremely good!! You should also try the puso which are the individually packaged rice which are local to cebu.... Very cool place and recommended if visiting,

No frills, no thrills, no recommendations: upgrade from 2.5 to a reluctant 3 to be fair because the…read morestandard fare was nicely cooked, but just about as boring as every other such grill house in the Philippines. We walk in hoping for something outstanding, but sadly, it's just the same moderately-flavoured stuff: ordered the grilled boneless bangus (milk fish), lato beaded seaweed 'salad,' grilled pecho (breast/winged) chicken, and a green buko (coconut) juice drink with the usual wee bit of soft flesh. All was okay, but no being able to apply spices and herbs beyond the predictable raw onions, scattered raw semi-hot little peppers, soy sauce and whitish vinegar means that the relative tastelessness of it all lands flat as if into the swamp from where some of it sprang. Too bad, but Neo Neo by Jing Jing at the J. Centre Mall - this specific venue - is in a bad location, and as per the food, wouldn't cut it at any chicken or seafood operation in the developed world. If you want better grilled chicken, try the tastier Jo's Inato in the Visayas (but not Manga Inasato). Sorry readers, but if you dislike mediocrity, skip Neo Neo!

We ordered the 1/4 Lechon, kangkong, scallops, soup and bbq chicken. We then had the meringue cheesecake and mango sticky rice. I cannot stress enough about how good the food here is. I can eat the lechon fat with rice as is by itself all day. The service here is phenomenal. Everything came on fairly quick, and the servers were so nice and thoughtful. Khim was our server and he was great. He recommended great food and even asked if we wanted a photo. The vibe of this place is nice. Everyone's happy and you can't help but have an appetite. Overall, this place deserves a 10/10 Would definitely come back and recommend.
