There really isnt a lot of parking available, but as long as you can fit your car in a spot, youre good. There have definitely grown a lot in the many years of my absence. I remember it was an all outdoor setting and the restaurant was still halfway through the field. Now, it takes up the entire lot with a second story spaces and airconditioned rooms and private rooms. I dont ever recall having a turo turo/ karenderia setting, but its there now and its the same as the food as they serve in the menu. Like most restaurants here, they have a place to wash their hands that is outside of the restrooms which makes it super convenient and you dont have to crowd the restrooms for that. Also, you can fill your own water pitchers or glasses at their self serve water station just beside the hand washing station. They were all very attentive to us. We had over a party of 15 of all ages and everyone was pretty fed and satisfied.

What's really great about this restaurant is that Mary Ann, the owner's wife is very hands-on. She would welcome you with a smile, find you a seat, and talk to you about what they have for the day -chicken, pork, or fish. We tried their pad thai and it was delicious! We didn't even bother to look at the meju as they serve different food on different days! How cool is that!? Overall, I would truly recommend the place to those who have the appetite for all things spicy! Truly, once of Lapu-lapu city's rare gem of a resto!

You do have to wait a while for your food but the service is good, it's just that the food is all made to order and takes time.

The selection of vegetarian entrees is quite bountiful, and the vegetable rice biryani is wonderful. I also appreciate the vegetable Manchurian, which is chock full of tasty garlic. The texture and mouth feel of this dish is also splendid. As a foreigner coming from outside of the Philippines, I have been pleased that the staff has been helpful with menu selections. I feel welcomed and at home. I applaud their use of spices in every dish, they are prepared with particular skill. When I finally am through with an excellent meal created here I feel ecstasy during the taxi ride back to the hotel.

My family loves it here. Some of the most authentic Japanese yakiniku you can get in Cebu. The…read moreservers are always attentive, they have great items on the menu, including imported drinks like sake and rice wine from Japan. Even with the way the tables are set up, you have the option to dine on a regular chair/table or like true Japanese restaurants where you're seated on the floor. It's easy to see why Japanese tourists love coming to dine here - it's an authentic yakiniku experience. That means they do serve Kobe beef on the menu! Unfortunately that also means, to those sensitive of the issue, smoking is allowed while dining. Other than that, the meat quality is top notch. You get what you pay for. That said, this is a little more on the pricey side. On average, according to my dad, it comes out to about P2k to P2.5k a person each time we come here. Well worth it, in my opinion.

Let me just get this out before I continue with my review - this place is disgusting! The order process was okay and the cashier took my order and served it in record time. When I was looking for a table, that's when everything went downhill. There were a lot of vacant tables with uncleaned dishes on them! Apparently, it takes twice as much time to get the tables cleaned out for the next diner than to take and serve their orders. The floor had water drips that needed wiping and nobody seemed to be interested in doing that! For their benefit they did put out a "wet floor" sign but it was truly disturbing let alone unsafe! I finished my food as fast as I could because I couldn't bear the sight of the mess. It was truly disgusting! I still cringe whenever I remember the mess that I saw. For a popular fast food chain, sanitation was terribly lacking!

If you live in America, then you may have tried Lechon if you attended a party hosted by Filipino friends. Believe me, though, Lechon tastes so much better in the Philippines. Specifically, I think Cebu makes the BEST tasting Lechon in the world!! For those of you who do not know, Lechon is a whole roasted pig!! A true Filipino Delicacy!! We stopped in at the House of Lechon in Talisay, Cebu to try their version of Lechon. They make a regular Lechon and a spicy Lechon. Both taste fantastic!! Love the mixture of spices they use to make such flavorful lechon!! My favorite was the Spicy Lechon!! It was the best I tasted during our 3 week trip in the Philippines. I tried about a dozen of them!! Hey, there were a lot of parties that we attended and each one served lechon. Anyways, the House of Lechon in Talisay, Cebu is a wonderful place to try this popular Filipino delicacy! Their restaurant looks great inside. Beautifully decorated and the staff was awesome!! 5 stars for the House of Lechon!! They know what they are doing here!!
