First time here and the soft shell crab pad thai was the star. The crab was crispy, and the noodles had that perfect sweet-sour balance. A bit on the pricier side, but I&#39;d get it again.

Good breakfast spot. Menu has solid options, from light bites to full meals. Came for a quick business breakfast, service was efficient. The space is comfortable, not too loud. Good for a straightforward meal.

The black garlic tonkotsu broth is so flavorful, not bitter at all.

Big bowls, perfect for a quick lunch. The cheese sticks are really good, better cheese than most places. Got my food fast, no waiting around. 👍

The complimentary tea was a nice touch while waiting. The wine list had a few good local options to pair with the meal.

Portions are huge for the price. I had the truffle pasta and it was packed with flavor, definitely felt like quality ingredients. A bit more than I&#39;d usually spend but you can tell where the money goes.

The staff were so attentive, refilling my water glass without me having to ask. That&#39;s a nice touch when you&#39;re trying to stay hydrated. They were also happy to charge my phone for me. Very polite service all around.

A pretty nice spot for a business lunch. The space is quite spacious and the decor feels authentic. Menu has a lot to choose from. Food was decent, though my sashimi platter was a bit on the smaller side for the price.

Been coming here for years. You pick your seafood fresh from the market next door, and they cook it up just right. That&#39;s the whole reason I keep coming back. The fish is always spot on.

Been coming here for years, and their fried chicken never disappoints. The meat is always so juicy and tender.

Been here a few times for a late bite. It&#39;s quiet, good for a drink after a long day. They stay open till 2 AM, which is handy. The vibe is relaxed, nothing fancy.

The salmon sashimi here is really fresh and creamy. I&rsquo;d say it&rsquo;s up there with the best I&rsquo;ve had in Manila. The blue marlin was a nice surprise too, sweet and tender. Just wish the portion was a bit bigger for the price.

The beef rendang was really tender and flavorful. I liked how the spices weren&#39;t overpowering. The rice portion was generous, which was nice. It&#39;s a good, comforting meal.

While the prices are on the higher side, the quality of the food justifies it. The honey spareribs and crispy noodles were particularly delicious.

Service was really attentive, they knew the menu well and gave good suggestions. But honestly, I&#39;m more about the value. The portions felt a bit small for the price tag. I left thinking I could&#39;ve gotten more food elsewhere for the same money.

First time trying their hotpot and I&#39;m impressed by how fresh the veggies are. The spinach and mushrooms were crisp, not soggy at all. Broth was light but flavorful. A bit pricey for the portion, but I&#39;d go back just for that freshness.

The menu&#39;s in English, which is handy. But honestly, the crispy pata is the only thing I remember. Skin was perfectly crackly, meat underneath was still tender and juicy. Ate the whole thing myself.

The staff here are super friendly. They remembered my order from last time and made sure everything was just right. Really nice people who seem to enjoy their work.

Ramen broth was lighter than I expected, but still comforting. Good spot for a quick, no-fuss Japanese meal.

The spring onion kimchi really stood out, tasted just like what I remember from Korea. The side dishes were a nice spread. The place itself is simple, clean, and pretty quiet, which I liked.

Loved the afternoon tea set. The scones were fresh and warm, and I really appreciated the quality of the clotted cream. The tea leaves staying in the pot meant I could enjoy a second cup that was just as flavorful. A nice, simple treat.

The grilled meats are the reason I come back. You cook them yourself on the tabletop grill. The pork belly gets a nice crisp edge, and the marinated beef bulgogi is sweet and tender. It&#39;s a simple setup, but the quality of the meat itself is solid. Just focus on getting that perfect sear.

The mochi here is pretty good. I tried the matcha and strawberry flavors, both decent. A nice sweet treat after lunch. It can be a bit pricey for the portion, though.

The dim sum here is a must-try. It&#39;s some of the best Chinese food I&#39;ve had. Portions are generous, almost too much for one person. The har gow was so fresh.

The bibimbap was good, but I&#39;d add more gochujang next time for extra kick. Parking is easy right outside, which is a plus during lunch hour. Service was prompt.

The portions are huge! We ordered a couple of dishes and ended up sharing everything, still had leftovers. For what you get, the price feels fair.

The mango bravo cake is my go-to for birthdays. The tofu steak was a nice surprise, really tender. Just wish the portion was a bit bigger for the price.

The place has a really nice vibe. The decor is fancy but not stuffy, and the seats are super comfy. Just felt like a chill spot to enjoy a meal, you know?
