The best restaurants Philippines

Located on the White Beach, this bar-restaurant is the ideal place to admire the sunset around an original shake. Indeed, Jony, the owner, was the first to produce real milk-shake on Boracay island. There are also plates of Mexican specialities.

One of the best addresses in the city, both in terms of décor and cuisine. A stylish decoration all in wood and bamboo, a cosy and arty atmosphere where the atmosphere is really pleasant. As for the cooking, the cuisine is well done (although some people find it uneven), we come here especially to taste fresh seafood like lapu-lapu, crayfish, lobster or crab. The prices are quite reasonable considering the quality. Reservations are required (your hotel can arrange this). Not to be missed.

L'Assiette, run by Lorna, a Franco-Philippine, offers a menu that combines French and Asian dishes, a wide variety of cocktails, a fine selection of wines and delicious homemade ice cream. Beautiful sea view and impeccable service.

If you're looking for an authentic place to eat good Filipino food, then you must stop by Chekesh. This cozy restaurant is run by a lovely family from the island who offers good fresh fish dishes, garden vegetable salads, well grilled meats... The plates are generous and of good quality, for a very low price. The owner, former barman of Coral Cay, can give you good advices to visit Siquijor. A very nice address.

Here, to sum up, it's white sand between your toes, a cold drink in your hand and a warm hospitality that will instantly make you forget the stress of everyday life! We offer international cuisine that will please all palates, coupled with a collection of fine wines. The specialty is the seafood platter with a taste of iodine, not to be missed. If you're looking for a romantic getaway (the sunset is breathtaking) or family fun, you've found it. Rooms are available.

Small restaurant located in the shade of a big tree (hence its name) that serves delicious vegetarian food. Here, we like natural things: fresh vegetables, healthy preparations, friendly staff, all in a cosy and simple atmosphere. The house serves generous vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes that will delight even carnivores. The menu is varied and inspired by all the cuisines of the world: teriyaki tofu, vegetable couscous, spaghetti and lasagna, tofu and nut burger, Mediterranean salad, soups and sandwiches.

This chic two-story beach hut where bamboo and waxed concrete complement each other is a great find. Here, no surprises on the menu, chef Oli concocts authentic Italian dishes and above all tasty Neapolitan pizzas that are happily devoured. Also a wide selection of antipasti and cocktails skillfully made. All served with a smile. With a superb sunset on the beach of Corong-Corong, lounge music and feet in the sand, we say to ourselves that la vita è bella!

The hotel and restaurant offer in Sabang is not very developed, so you have to fall back on the restaurants attached to all the guesthouses and hotels. Pawikan is the restaurant of the best resort in town. It serves Filipino and Italian fusion cuisine in a most pleasant and elegant setting. The menu includes lasagna, vegetarian curry, tofu and eggplant, pizzas, burgers, and fresh meat and fish dishes of the day. Ideal to have a drink in the evening too. We recommend it.

Here's one of the best places on the island to treat yourself. Angelina takes you on a gastronomic journey to Italy. The quality of Italian dishes here is astonishing, given Malapascua's isolation. Pasta, risotto, seafood, meats - everything that can be homemade is, and in the evenings, from 6pm onwards, you can enjoy delicious pizzas. Carpaccio and tuna tartare are not to be missed. The restaurant is also a resort offering rooms and all the services that go with them.

One of the best Italian restaurants in Bohol. Giuseppe's offers traditionally baked pizzas, pastas and delicious antipasti made with products imported directly from Sicily. In addition to a terrace covered with vine leaves, the large room is very pleasant because you can see the cooks at work. We love this large open kitchen, and the attentive and competent staff. We recommend it, if you like Italian food. A good address.

Whether you're only spending a few hours or part of your stay in Puerto Princesa, Captain Rib's is always a good idea (especially for meat lovers). This is one of the must-stop places in Palawan. Ideally located near the airport, this Franco-Filipino restaurant has managed to distinguish itself thanks to its simple, cheap and gourmet cuisine, a remarkably friendly atmosphere and a very pleasant setting. As you can imagine, here the ribs are the specialty, but you will be able to taste all types of grills and good small dishes.

It is one of the meeting places for locals and visitors at lunchtime and in the evening. The yoghurts and cakes are excellent, but there is also a wide range of dishes on the menu, especially meat dishes. There are also sandwiches, salads, pasta and curries... there is something for everyone. The dishes are very good. In two words: excellent table, our lunchtime canteen in Sagada. The welcome is warm, but be patient, sometimes you can wait a long time for your meal.

It is a large restaurant typically Filipino with its many wooden tables and rattan chairs. Ideal to come with friends or family, in group, the atmosphere is friendly and often animated. As for the cuisine, it offers Filipino and Western classics such as grilled pusit (octopus), green mango salad, blue marlin steak or tamilok (local aphrodisiac). You can dine al fresco, watch sports on a big screen, play pool... Nice to come and have a drink too. A good address.

A popular address, cheaper than hotel restaurants. We love.

In the heart of downtown, in a pretty garden with pond and thatched straw huts, sit back and enjoy the delicious local flavors, and especially the many fresh seafood specialties such as prawns, grilled octopus and other fish from the day's catch. True Philippine cuisine in a jovial atmosphere and at unbeatable prices. There are three different Buto't Balat addresses in the city, so there's sure to be one to suit you, wherever you are. We recommend it!

On the first floor, a pizza oven (traditional wood oven) and on the first floor, a beautiful room with a small counter... Wood fire atmosphere and Bel Paese cuisine, around tasty pizzas, pastas and other antipasti. Try to settle down on the small terrace (there are 3 tables) to enjoy the view on the cooks at work and on the street. Victim of its success, Altrové has opened a branch six meters from the restaurant where you can order pizzas to go. Considerate service. We like it so we recommend it!
