It will test you, so enjoy outside…read morewhile you leave a person behind (lol) and ask for the Wi-Fi password so they can look at their phone. The wait is real, but there is a reason. The food is cooked fresh. You actually pick your seafood before it is cooked, especially the squid and the crab. Nothing feels rushed, and it shows once the plates hit the table. The fried squid was worth waiting for. Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and not greasy. You can tell it was fresh and cooked to order. The crab was the same story: sweet meat, well-seasoned, and not drowned in sauce. We also ordered pancit bihon, scallops with garlic, pork BBQ skewers, and a small cup of rice. The pancit bihon was flavorful and not dry. The scallops were soft and garlicky without being overpowering. The pork BBQ skewers had that classic smoky sweetness and were nicely charred. Service is straightforward and the vibe is casual. This is not fast food. If you come hungry and in a rush, you will get frustrated. If you come expecting fresh, cooked-on-the-spot Filipino food, you will leave happy. This is the kind of place you go to slow down, eat well, and enjoy food that is made properly. Enjoy time with family and talk; it's nice to enjoy your time while waiting for the food.

Although it's really hard not to find good Chinese food in the Philippines. We have been disappointed with the oysters in Dumaguete that we opted to try this place. As with any dimsum place, one should be very careful in ordering. It may appear cheap per serving but you end up getting a lot which adds up to the bill. This is the case with our visit here. Unfortunately, the food was good that we ended up ordering a lot. I would say it satisfied our dimsum craving that we didn't even know existed at that time. A little advice, though. The place appears to be popular so try to come in early. Otherwise, they may not anymore have the dish you want.

For example, you won't find egg foo young on the menu. And they don't have egg rolls made with peanut butter. I guess you can say it's more authentic. This is my second time at Spring Palace and because of the size of our party, we've always been given a large, Private room. My relatives like it, the food was fine overall and most of these dishes are very new to me. I guess the spinach soup was my favorite item. The deep fried shrimp with fruit salad was weird but it's crunchy sweetness was fine by me. I also very much enjoyed the steamed Grouper (lapu-lapu), the meat is so soft and sweet.

After church my brothers and I decided to try the place that my friends speak highly of, to check it out and see if it lives up to it's hype. True enough there is authenticity in its Chinese cuisine, dishes that has rich and diversified but harmonious color, aromatic flavor, and excellent taste. I came for their dimsum, The choices are limited but I must say, by far, it's the best dimsum I ever had in Cebu City. I'm done eating dimsum at the mall. I also tried the other dishes my brothers ordered, and I say this place has the best Chinese food I ever had in Cebu City, The place was packed but we got there just 5 minutes before all tables were taken. The servers were quite efficient, patient and friendly. The place was kinda noisy during lunch time. Happy diners maybe?

We always get the shrimp dumplings and the soup dumplings. Dip them in chili sauce and wow! Delicious! The seafood is always fresh. They have live fish, lobster, and even eel that you can pick from outside. May not be a good idea for animal lovers though or for anyone not into that sort of thing, i mean seeing that their meal was alive just a few minutes ago. But anyway, their food is really flavorful. And from what i hear, chefs are really from places such as hongkong etc and so the taste they put into their food is really authentic chinese. I got to try the spinach soup today too and it was surprisingly really good! They added egg, tofu and shrimp so it tasted more like a healthy egg drop! I loved it! Gotta check this place out if you havent yet.

We were seated promptly for a party of 8 and were given menus along with roasted peanuts. We ordered peking duck, roasted chicken, sotanghon, pancit canton, black pepper beef, and birds nest soup with quail eggs. The soup came piping hot and warmed us up from the day's rain. The peking duck came a little sweet. The roasted chicken was drenched in sauce. The sotanghon was of good texture as with the pancit canton. The black pepper beef, which the waitress indicated that it was their specialty, was very chewy. It didn't pack the flavor I was hoping for, it was bland. We also orderd mango sago, mango shake and ube lomochi (sp?) (or was it the other "..mochi" named dessert) for dessert. The mango sago was a bit sour but the ube lomochi was wonderfully sweet, but not overwhelming. It had the consistency of mochi and had a sesame seed filling. Despite my disappointment of the food (which was highly recommened by someone in my party) the service was impeccable. Everyone was very accommodating and was eager to please. The waitresses that serviced our table were all very pleasant, and kept checking on us to make sure any requests we had was executed and satisfied. Overall, the price I paid for a party of 8 was of decent value. I did expect the food to be of more higher quality as people have raved about this restaurant. The service is superb. The service alone is why I would ever come back. The food.. well meh.. maybe I'll try again another time to see if the food improves.
