This is a really extraordinary restaurant! It is unbelievable the quality and the amount of food that they deliver at such an affordable price. In our four days stay in El Nido, we already went 4 times and plan to go more. We tasted several things and every single thing was delicious and the portion was generous. The highlights were the sizzling seafoods and the grilled squid. There are several options of healthy food, the grilled seafood tastes fresh and are grilled without excess of oil, and there are 5 dishes featuring vegetables, we loved all of them. As an example, the plate of grilled shrimp cost 200P and came with 10 shrimps plus rice. Totally recommended! Congratulations for the whole team that runs this restaurant!

What a fantastic find this was in El Nido town. It's a hidden gem amongst the multiple eating options available in town, but this stands out. The food is excellent. The food takes a while to come out, but when it does, it's absolutely delicious. Plenty of vegetarian options too, alongside meat and fish dishes. It can get busy, as it's a small little joint, but well worth the stop. The prices are excellent value for the portion and quality. This serves up authentic Filipino fare, so make it a must on your list when in El Nido.

Had food here almost every other day when in El Nido. The food is amazing,tastes Yummy. I tried Grilled Fish, Chicken Adobo with coconut milk, Fish Streak,Chicken Curry,Mixed Bihon Canton, Seafood pasta. The most I liked is their Fish Streak with lemon butter sauce which is the best fish Streak I have ever had. The restaurant is mostly full. If you have to wait for a few minutes it's absolutely worth it. Service is also good and straightforward.

Great place to grab some tasty but very cheap food in El Nido. When I went there was a long line up to get in so keep that in mind. I got the Sizzling Seafood with some rice. It was really good.

This place is amazing. If you’re early enough, you can get seated with a view of the water.
The food is amazing, can’t go wrong.
I definitely recommend the Kinilaw (Filipino ceviche with vinegar and coconut milk), butter shrimp, crispy spring rolls and ginataang gulay.
My husband is vegan, they are so accommodating and cheap. Make sure to come early so you can snag a seat

This is one of the cheapest meals we had here in El Nido. They seem to have a specific window when they’re open but when they are, there’s always a line in front. Thankfully on our last day, we were able to grab a meal here. We ordered some liempo which was cooked very nicely. The meat was juicy and they cooked it the way we requested it. Definitely understand why people form a line to eat here.

Great restaurant. Wish we had gone back!
The food we got here was great. Everything was delicious and really good value.
Proper Filipino food.
The sisig was crunchy and fatty, the veggies were delicious, spring tools were tasty and the cervice was awesome. I've been craving the cervice since!
Be prepared to queue outside as the place gets busy quick but it is very worth the wait.

El Nido isn't full of traditional Filipino fare. You're more likely to find a pad thai, Korean fried chicken or yaki soba on the strip. But Maa's fills the gap dutifully and does a great job.
This is absolutely no frills. A queue will have amassed by 7pm, and because the team are so busy you won't be getting silver service. But it's warm, welcoming and as attentive as they can be.
The food is brilliant. Pork Adobo is salty and moreish, sizzling chicken creamy and delicious. The standout is the adobong kangkong, a vegetable side dish that somehow outshines your main.
Stand at the counter to pay and emerge onto a buzzing El Nido strip well-fed and warmed from the experience. This is a must try while you're here.
