It's also a popular tourist spot to grab a cocktail (nothing craft...think Mai Tais and Woo Woos) and a bite to eat. We had wanted to sit in the sand but the restaurant is overrun by aggressive peddlers trying to sell pearl bracelets to you. The staff does nothing to help so we ended up sitting inside to avoid them. The menu is Filipino and full of favorites. We ended up getting the adobo calamari, prawn sinigang and grilled mackarel. The mackarel was a bit burnt which was disappointing and the adobo calamari chewy. The sinigang was pretty good however. Service was very slow and the restaurant sticky. The bathrooms were squalid and had no handsoap at all (it didn't even look like they ran out...just like it never existed) which only made the whole experience worse. This is one of the most popular spots in El Nido Town which makes me question everyone's travelling preferences. So glad this was a quick visit and we ended up staying in Sibaltan instead!

The place was busy during the dinner hour, but we were able to be seated at one of the tables on the beach. My boyfriend ordered the Grouper, which he selected out on the stand, to be grilled. I ordered the Squid Adobo from the dinner menu. Food came as it was prepared, so my dish came out first since most people chose items to be grilled. The Squid Adobo was not something I'd order again. Sauce was good, but the squid was overcooked; so sadly, was not tender but had that rubber-y texture that squid gets when it's been cooked for too long. The sauce had great flavor from the soy sauce and garlic, so it was a shame that the protein in the dish was not enjoyable. Sitting out on the beach was fun and an experience to be had while in El Nido, but prepare for many street vendors to walk up to you, selling you goods. If you show any interest at all, they get aggressive and negotiate you for a price. All in all though, Sea Jane provided a nice beachfront experience, so get the beer and skip the seafood.

Just like most restaurants already there are a lot more western than local. If you're in a rush good place to go. Most Filipino restaurants aren't this quick on service.

We came here for a boodle fight! Boodle Fight Resto & Bar was conveniently located next to our…read morehotel, so decided to check it out for dinner. We started with a Mango Shake and ordered the All-Meat Boodle Fight for two and Pancit Canton. It took a bit for us to get our food and all in all, we thought the boodle fight was A-OK. The All-Meat Boodle Fight included chicken, pork belly, eggplant salad with rice. Though it seemed like it would be a lot since it was a boodle fight, we thought the portion was small. The grilled chicken was good, but the portion was not enough for two people, and the pork belly had way too many fatty pieces, so didn't eat much of the pork one. It was shame, too, since the pork had great flavor. Eggplant salad was very good and liked that it was included. And it was actually a relief that we ordered the Pancit Canton on the side to fill up on, which was a good dish with lots of calamansi flavor! Service was good and there is a full bar here with a sink in the dining area to wash your hands before and after you're done with your meal. But we weren't too impressed with our boodle fight, which is what the restaurant is known for. Glad to have had a boodle fight while in the Philippines, but it was far from the best.
