BEWARE!!!!!! My wife and I ordered a noodle dish with vegetables and a choice of a meat, in which we chose chicken. It took about about 25min to come out, and when it did there was chicken bone throughout the entire meal, even through the noodles. There were random shards of bone without any meat even attached, scattered through the food. We also noticed there were blue pieces of plastic all through the food also. It's a shame as the noodles and veg tasted quite good. I would strongly avoid this restaurant or definately make sure you know what your ordering. The pile of food on the third plate on the left hand side was all the bone. You can see the blue pieces of plastic on the napkin.

My friends and I absolutely loved this place. And we all have very varied taste buds and dietary preferences. We are from Canada, US and Germany and we all found the food and the service to be incredible. We stayed in El Nido for a week and probably ate there about 5 times or more and we were never disappointed with our experience. We are also pretty adventurous diners and we tried to order different dishes each visit. We also really like its unpretentious atmosphere, busy all the time with locals and some tourists and the prices are amazingly affordable. I will be back again next time I visit El Nido.

We had dinner here and we ordered "bulalo". Their bulalo is so good and the meat is so tender. We also ordered "kare kare" which tasted ok, but while we were eating many insects flew to the lights above us and other insects landed on our foods so we easily finished our meal.

The staff is really nice and speaks good English. We came here several times and had a mixed experience with the food we ordered. The tortang talong was good one day and not the best the next.
The vegetarian curry is quite tasty! It's small though, and you need to order rice separately (20 pesos for a cup).
Their spicy sauce is quite nice but really hot so be careful.
They give you free water at the start of the meal -- that's how you know it's an authentic Filipino restaurant.
Overall, it's worth trying. The food is okay and reasonably priced (for El Nido).
But, just like most places in Palawan, vegetarian dishes cost more than ones with meat. Always ask about the ingredients as some dishes may seem vegetarian but contain shrimp paste.

Nice place to get a decent local taste. All dishes were tasty and prices are very reasonable to compare with the local benchmark. Had a great sizzling as well as a delicious seafood curry. Also the tuna with egg as a starter was a great choice. Recommend strongly.
The food served is quite big, but the price is quite pricey, and the food tastes good.

We ate here an hour ago and my husband and I had stomach problems. The things you dine to eat must be warmly heated, and well done, because otherwise bacteria are formed that can harm your health !! !!!!! cook with more attention and love !!! a month in the Philippines this was the worst place where we ate ... I don't recommend this place .... we took pancit and a Beef soup 😡

The food was truly delicious! The place isn't really touristy, so we could find a lot of local dishes that weren't offered downtown.

Good Filipino food at a good price. The service is very kind too. Authentic and I recommend the beef soup (bulalo). Then came later that night and had the same food and it was terrible. And the workers just sit there , ate and talked with each other. Couldn’t even get a water
