Had dinner with friends here few weeks ago during our vacation. The locals recommended this place. We love the chill and relaxing vibe. Unlike what I read from other reviews here at Google, the staff are warm and friendly to us. We loved the food especially the fish and chips. They also have a live band playing reggae music (started playing around 8 pm). A good place to hang out with friends. Price point is okay compared to other restaurants in the area with same food quality and ambiance.
Went to dine here with former work mates and friends on a Sunday last Feb 12, 2023 during our trip to El Nido. I didn't get to take many photos of the place. It looks like they were at a different location before and relocated here and just recently opened again but I am unsure of that. The food had generous portions and worth just the price. I ordered the steak (forgot the complete dish name) and it was tender much to my amazement and liking. There is a bar downstairs the restaurant but it wasn't opened yet. There is a live reggae band performance for customers and patrons. The place felt a bit warm but the wind was also chilly outside, probably because it is not yet summer time. I liked the place design and food overall and we had fun taking pictures with the devolution backdrop outside. Easy to spot location, just beside the road. It is also just walking distance to several hotels and accomodations in the area.
Staff is rude and they put no meat in the burrito. Also the burrito doesn’t look like the picture. I asked them for a couple thin slices tomato on the burrito and they said pretty much under their breath that they wanted extra money. Ridiculous people and not even a smile. They need to learn about customer service otherwise it wasn’t terrible food. They barely put any meat for the price they charge, so for that reason and the attitude of the employees I wouldn’t ever go back or recommend.
We ordered steaks and a big burger the night before last night. Generally all dishes are way too salty and overpriced. The big burger is 380P but it only comes with 1 slice of lettuce, tomato, cheese, and slice of meat. No egg as they mentioned in the menu. I finished it in 5 minutes. Not quite a BIG burger even for girls…
Great DJ and vibes but the security dons black American flags and confederate flags on his uniform. Don't be mistaken, Phillipino people aren't stupid and know exactly what these symbols mean. DO NOT give this bar your money until they work this out.

Food catered towards tourists, so not flavourful or spicy even though it's advertised on the menu . Ruins the whole point of traveling. Seek real food.

The atmosphere and service were nice but unfortunately 4 out of 5 people in my group got food poisoning after eating here. We had burgers, curry, and Malaysian chicken and all started vomiting about 3 hours after eating there. There were a few power blackouts while we were there so potentially spoiled meat was the culprit, but cannot recommend this place unless you want to lose a whole vacation day due to sickness

We visited in the morning/afternoon after coming off of the ferry. We both felt terrible from seasickness - splitting headaches and barely standing. We stumbled into this first restaurant near our hotel and they were very nice in letting us be and serving food quickly.
They even graciously turned down the music for us since we were basically the only ones there. The view in the day is really spectacular. Most of the pictures here are at night, but you get to see the water sparkle and people watch on the winding hill. Great breeze and decor on the 2nd floor.
Apparently this place is known for music and drinking haha so we are extra thankful they accommodated us with no questions asked. Food tasted good. It was not the best we've had in Palawan and was pricier, but that seems normal for a party bar in El Nido!
Very nice place to meet new friends! Palawan is one of the top tourist spot in the Philippines. So once you visit this place, expect you will meet different races. With the DJ playing upbeat music, you'll definitely enjoy the night and break free 🕺💃🏻
