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.

As soon as you walk in you will be greeted with a display of fresh caught seafood and you choose whatever and however you want it cooked.

The level of service felt more appropriate for a casual turo-turo stall in a public market than a proper dining establishment -- food was served with little care or presentation, and there was no sense of professionalism in how customers were attended to. Management would do well to invest in proper customer service training if they hope to meet the standards expected of a sit-down restaurant

Not exactly your typical ceviche, but still great nonetheless! I also had the: -pollo saltado (Peruvian chicken stirfry) -Cerdo con papa (pork tenderloin soup with potatoes) -pescado blanco (a white fish dish nicely simmered in white wine) -aji de gallina (a mildly spiced creamed chicken) -arroz chaufa (much like Chinese fried rice with beef, peas, and carrots) All of them, were great choices! I especially liked the aji de gallina, since I like a bit of spice with my food :) For the beverage, I had the "cucumber ala fresca" pitcher (fresh cucumber juice infused w/ lime and ginger) - very REFRESHING! ^_^ Overall, a great eating experience. The ambience is nice, and this restaurant is a nice place to take someone on a date. The music has a very smooth Latino feel. The prices are affordable. Oh, and they have Wi-fi = a great plus too! Haha Would recommend.

The Loboc Riverwatch Floating Restuarant is a popular tourist activity in Bohol, Philippines. It is…read moreessentially a boat that offers a buffet while cruising along the Loboc River for about 45 minutes to one hour. During the cruise, there is entertainment such live music and dance performances. When I went, the buffet offered a variety of Filipino dishes, including pancit, vegetable Kare Kare and Filipino bbq. There were also several Filipino desserts and complimentary juice, while other drinks such as soda could purchased for an additional fee. While I appreciated the variety of food, I found the flavors to be fairly mild. More than the food, it was the atmosphere and experience that made this cruise memorable. I really enjoyed the scenic river ride and seeing all the lush greenery and tropical vegetation. I also liked the live entertainment. The local music and traditional dance performances were impressive and fun to watch. Some of us tourists even joined in the fun Filipino Tinikling dance. Overall, the Loboc Riverwatch Floating Restaurant was definitely an hour well spent. The relaxing river ride, the scenic views and live music and dance performances combined created a memorable and enjoyable experience.

We didn't even bother to look at the meju as they serve different food on different days! How cool is that!?

Nice... hook it uuuuupp. Looks like I got the long pour :) The food: I read somewhere they blue marlin was oily... I didn't have it, but we ordered it and everyone said it tasted quite nice.
