We arrived at Lakeview Le Jardin after a very long drive from Oslob and exploring the southern part of this beautiful island of Cebu. By the time we got to the restaurant, it was almost 8pm. Even though we arrived there close to closing time, the service and food was still top notch.
Lakeview Le Jardin is more than just a restaurant. They also have a beautiful botanical garden with hundreds of tropical flowers and exotic plants. Unfortunately, we did not have time to explore the garden. Since we were there so late, it was too dark to appreciate everything that Lakeview Le Jardin had to offer on their property. So this review is mainly for their restaurant.
Our family of 7 were the only patrons while we were there. Service was fantastic. Loved the ambiance and decor of the restaurant. The food tasted great. Wifey and I shared our choices. She ordered the Lakeview Burger. I ordered the Lakeview Pizza. The burger is served on a homemade brioche bun. They use a 150g Angus beef patty and add house smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese. Also comes with fries and salad. Quality ingredients make this burger a winner!! 5 stars!!! The Lakeview Pizza is also made with high quality ingredients. First time that I've ever had Lechon Kawali and homemade chorizo on a pizza before. Tasted 5 stars FANTASTIC!!!!
Not a single person is our family of 7 was disappointed in their food choice. Everybody left the restaurant full and HAPPY!!! The staff never rushed us even though they probably had to stay later than normal to serve us and clean up. 5 star customer service!! Food and drinks were great from start to finish. They even have beer called Bauhinia Pilsner from a local microbrewery in Cebu which was terrific too. Save room for dessert. The Mango Float is YUMMY!!!!!
Only regret is that we were not there during daylight hours. I'm sure the views of the garden and surrounding area would have been spectacular! Will have to return the next time we are in Cebu, Philippines. read more
