Interior is mostly indigenous. Wooden tables and chairs. Imagine a big old tree sliced like bread, that's sort of how it was shaped and made into use as tables ;-) Staff are friendly especially if they remember you as a good tipper. Price is mediocre. Cheap for foreigners/baligbayans! Steamed oysters is like $2 for a bucket, not a piece of this exotic delicacy. There is food for meat lovers and vegetarians. Not sure about vegans. Anyways, it's always a good idea to ask. No reservations needed. Come anytime, and come as you are Beer, fresh fruit shakes and water is served for refreshments. Loved the grilled or sinigang na blue marlin or tanigue! Cash or credit card is accepted. Come with a heavy appetite. Bon Appetit!

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

I asked for half the usual sugar/syrup and it turned out perfect Ripe Mango shake Buko juice Buko shake Baked scallops Grilled Sibingan (Blue Marlin) Aligue Rice Chopsuey Sizzling Kansi - very tender meat and of course, I love the bone split in half with the bone marrow exposed. The sauce on it was good too. Grilled lechon belly - just ok Fish and chips (had 2 good dipping sauce, but the fish was just ok.

This particular resto joined in for the food festival tonight part of the celebrations for the…read morenext 2 days. This happens every year around the same time. Anyway, the way this is set-up is like the public market, only you pick the restaurant that represents and order whatever you like. Tonight's specialty is everything grilled: pork that was marinated several ways of either sweet, the other might be sweet and tangy, same with the chicken, fresh seafoods that are lightly seasoned with just salt then straight to grilling, and last but not the least- roasted pig chopped in big mouthful pieces to enjoy. You may order beers and other cold soda pops once your food arrives after they are cooked. Every customer is assigned a table with number and they determine your orders by this number. Everything grilled as we all know are very yummy. This is an outdoor activity food eating. It means tables and chairs are lined up across the blocked roads that stretches up to at least 3 blocks of what we know it in the US. It is super fun bcs there are several Live bands line-up to entertain all while you eat and drink.

Had a super great diner at Ading's tonight (Oct 13). Tried almost all the seafood since there were…read more8 of us. All the dishes we picked were great tasting and super fresh from the grilled squid, tanguingue seviche, mud crabs, grilled prawns, sweet and sour red snapper, scallops, and blue marlin, as well as shrimps in chili sauce. Crispy pata was our non seafood dish and it too was delicious. Advise, do not order rice so you can try and enjoy more dishes and not get too full too early. Service was quick and efficient with the servers always smiling and attentive. Try the fried mini crabs as an appetizer. Yumm. Highly recommend this place.

Very good venue with mostly good fresh food to cook at your table in Ayala's multi-part Atria strip…read moremall/plaza between Megaworld and SM City on Diversion (3.5 stars rounded up). We had to send the one scallop (?), much of the heap of Chinese cabbage, and the little corn cob back as they were decidely not fresh, but the rest was quite good. On top of the set plate (500p for the small), we ordered more seafood balls, and some white noodles that I think go better with the meal than the thin glass noodles included with the meal. Too bad the broth pot is not split into spiced and plain water (as some hot pot restos do), but you can add some flavours from the condiment table to accompany the extra vegetables they start with in the broth. The condiments - minced garlic, chopped onions and shallots, scallions, soy sauce, deep-flavoured bean sauce and chili paste - that you mix up at a separate table according to your taste were fresh, and really close in flavour to what one gets in Taiwan and Manila (where one can find many hot-pot restaurants, with one of the best being Ping Yang at the corner of Adriatico and Julio Nakpil Streets in Malate). We are glad to find yet another good resto here in Iloilo, because there really are few worth returning to. I recommend this restaurant highly, but make sure the staff bring you all fresh ingredients for your own style of cooking at the table. Far exceeds most Korean 'self-cook' fare that usually starts/stops with fatty pork belly, and therefore is far less fattening. Check it out?
