I liked this one - local reggae band playing, bean bag chairs, chill vibe. The Hawaiian burger was delish but 10 fries do not a side make. The g n t's were decent but pricey, but the bartender let me open a tab without even a card and I took the glasses down to the beach to watch the EPIC sunset. This is definitely a nice place to stay. I sat on the couches and journaled a bit. Heaven. Cash only.

The bar definitely has a more modern feel to it with loud music playing on the ground level, couches along the wall and dim lighting everywhere. To take advantage of the happy hour, you have to get the same cocktail. We both ordered the Pina Colada which came in a faux coconut shell. It was one of the better pina coladas I've had, as you could tell it was made with fresh coconut and was strong on the rum. I would recommend it here. However, there's a solid list of cocktail menus on the happy hour deal, ranging in different alcohol bases. They do sell bar food here, which is mostly westernized (fries, calamari, etc...) Sava Beach Bar was a nice spot for happy hour, especially if you can get a seat that looks out to the water. Great cocktails and service.

Live band playing was great except it was so loud you couldn't even hear the person sitting in front of you. Since last time they finished remodeling and now have a bar, which you can't sit at but alcohol is display. STAFF DO NOT COMMUNICATE - bar only know what's going on there, waitress has no idea what is going on with our orders or the kitchen! Nor did they know what they had on hand or if things were available. Yes this place is known but - why bother? I guess only if you're going for lobster but there are many other places that will do better. Ordered a large amount of food: Food came out in the most random order soups, oysters, noodles and Shanghai near the end of dinner way through our meal the rice came after having to be flagged down 2x and still not bringing the correct order. Oysters were dry and grilled to dried tidbits, with only calamansi since we didn't want cheese. Beef steak - I have never had beefsteak that tasted like chocolate and banana ketchup. I had to spit it out. Sizzling pusit - never came out the waitress said we didn't order it when it was written on the order tab they they whited out Calamares - didn't come out and they again denied it and whited it out on the order receipt Kinilaw was good, very citrusy and didn't taste fishy. Clam soup mediocre and luke warm Garlic butter shrimp was overcooked. Sinigang mainly consisted of fat and was luke warm did not have enough tamarind base to even call it sinigang. Banana and mango shakes - carried the meal! The waitress was horrible, even when speaking in the dialect she had no idea what was going on. Seriously don't waste your time or money here.

First off all, the service is too slow like super slow. We ended up canceling our two orders due to…read morethey r so slow we were almost done the last two order are still not served. Mind you we were the second guest to arrive the first guest they were just two people. We waited atleast 30mins for the first dish to be served then 5-10mins waiting for the next. Second, The lady server was 0 customer service she looks so pissed serving us, the moment we arrived. She said the platter were 2-3people serving, but in reality its just 1-2 person per plate. Lastly, the Most "Scam" why? We ordered 3 plates of shrimps, it was mostly Head Shrimps the number of head shrimps and the number of shrimp tail are not equal. like 12 heads I counted but only 6pcs of tails.! the worst part they gave us 2 plates and the server said, the cooked mistakenly combined the 2plates order in one plate. So thats already total of 3. We felt scammed like they have the same amount. What was our assurance for their statement. That was over for us. We did not argue we just want to finish our food and leave. For all the tourists visiting, Beware! we Highly NOT RECOMMEND this place! But if you want to risk it go ahead, go waste your time and money . In end you'll end up unsatisfied.

Also, staff is killer and so fun that I felt like was hanging out at a party and not just a bar. Happy Hour (or should I say Lucky Hour) is very cool event, with you getting an opportunity to win a free drink every time you order; just tell your bartender what you plan to drink and he/she will flip a coin. If you win the toss, your drink is free, and if you lose, you just pay for drink like you were going to anyway. Such a great bar that it was certainly a highlight of my trip. Oh, one word of warning, don't disparage the poor Pangolin. This crew loves their little mascot and will certainly protect her honor.... Just check out the Pangolin merch.

They serve beer, cocktails and some food -- mostly seafood/ Spanish and tapas/ apps. As its name would suggest, this is an easy place to witness the show stopping El Nido sunsets. The square footage of the bar/ restaurant is of a reasonable size with some high top seating looking out towards the ocean under any awning (upstairs and ground level), a few tables, and bar seating. I came a little before sunset for a couple of San Migs to experience the splendor at one of their choice high top chairs looking out to the sea. Front row seats at its finest. Oddly, Filipinos have a strange fascination with deep house which was bumping rather loudly and was off putting to some older gentleman who proceeded to turn down the volume without the permission of the workers. A little slice of paradise is sure to be had here if one chooses smartly just to sip and savor and shut out the rest of the world, especially one of the overprivileged tourist.
