    Criminally delicious, this restaurant along Diversion Road near Robinsons Highlands in Buhangin is a respite from long drives and traffic jams. They serve the most basic of Filipino dishes but creates them in the best possible way that the outcome is a sumptous meal good for family and friends. The serving is always for sharing and is very generous. Our order included the following: Shrimp Aglio Olio priced at P430, Salmon Parmesan Pasta priced at P525, Chicken Condon Bleu priced at P450, Short Ribs Beef Stew priced at P560, and Sticky Pork Steak priced at P599. The ambiance of the place is garden-inspired with lots of floral and fern wallpapers and murals. The place has several long and small tables and can easily seat between 40 to 50 heads all at once. Though there were only three (3) crew visible from the counter, there were efficient in taking orders, cleaning after each customer and serving the food.

    The place was great. It has a chill/ relaxed vibe. We went at night. It was easy to spot. The food was great. It was a bit pricey. We went a little over 1k for 2 dishes and drinks. But would like to go back anyway.

    Great food and service. We enjoyed the ribs they were fall off the bone tender and very tasty. We also had the Waygu cheeseburger that was very good also. We should have asked for it medium (our fault)we ordered it well-done. Overall very good ambiance. We will return again. Thank you!!!

    Steak Garlic Rice is the best!!! The Tenderloin salpicao is a bit chewy and spicy but still good! I love their place it’s cozy and aesthetically pleasing. Plus the customer service is great! I highly recommend this place. Food ✅ Place ✅ Service ✅

    Second time here. This time we got the sticky ribs, creamy carbonara, and a slice of their velvet cake. Both entries are enough for two making great left overs. Unfortunately everything looked so good we gobbled it all down before remembering to take pics.

    Food is delicious. I recommend their Ribeye Roast Beef, Beef Ragu on Penne Pasta, Sticky Ribs Slab and for dessert, the Chocolate Ganache cake. Place is small, but “instagrammable”. You can call the restaurant ahead to order in advance on your way there. Menu is included in the photos!

    The food is decent. The place is nice. It’s a nice place to chill. The interior is cozy. I ordered their Rustica Burger. It tastes good. Not something i would order again since I’m not a burger person. But the pasta is good, which I would recommend. I haven’t tried their meals. Would have loved to try their lamb but it’s out of stock. I’ll try their rice dishes next time I visit

    Good food. Great ambiance. Friendly staff. Will dine again with my whole family. Definitely will come back to try their other foods in their menu. The chicken steak was super tender and Greek salad was superb! 👍👍👍

    Place is expensive so brace yourself on the 300 to 500 worth of menu. However, its for sharing so its ok. Food is not as good as I thought though. Ordered roasted beef for like 650 and I got a well done beef with potato side dish. I think I should have ordered it medium rare. Still for me price is not worth it. Could be around 350 to 400 for that instead of 650. Thats just my opinion. For the strawberry lemonade, too sweet that I ended up adding more water. For a 175, not worth it. Overall, place is ok.

    Great restaurant and stopover for those travelling through Diversion Rd. Servings are worth the price. Only ordered whole chicken as this is one of the few dish that isn't sweet. Nice herby flavor. Juicy though the breast part is a bit bland. Great ambience. Parking is sufficient if the nearby shops are closed.

    Food are expensive but it is worth the money! You can really sense that the one who's cooking the food is a chef! Love the design of their resto/café. The only drawback is that since we were seated upstairs outdoor, the cars outside are very loud since their place is located in the highway and sometimes it is in-sync with their loud music. Not only loud, but sometimes it can be dusty too from the cars outside, though I can't see any dust, but feels like there are really dust coming from the outside cars. I also notice that they only have few staff. Getting your bill or wrapping your bring home food takes time because when you're looking for a waiter, no one is there around you because maybe the waiter is getting the food down stairs (we're seated upstairs outdoor). It might be better to add more staff/waiter since your food are expensive and I'm sure can cover the payroll overhead. But overall, we will definitely go back here and refer their café to my other friends!

    Nice clean attractive restaurant. Fast attentive service. Most meals were fine, but the steak was tough to cut and "stringy". Choose the other better meals. Prices were on the high side.

  • 4/5 Harley Gibb S. 2 years ago on Google
    Tried their pesto pasta, truffle pasta and feta salad. At first I thought it’s price - but the serving didn’t disappoint. Good for sharing and most importantly they all taste good! Cute décor as well. Must visit!

  • 4/5 SY T. 1 year ago on Google
    The place has a great ambiance although the food is pricey. Most of the items on the menu are 200php and above but they're definitely worth it considering the serving size and the taste. Did not disappoint.

    Still on their soft opening phase. But the food we tried was deliciously and generously portioned - salmon and chicken. Cozy place in the evenings probably but would need blinds in the street front windows to protect from the suns’s glare and privacy. Wishing the resto’s future success and hoping the food quality and the staff friendliness and efficiency are maintained as they go full blast. Cute plates by the way. A bit tight moving with the tables clustered close together.

    We held our wedding reception and my child's baptism reception. Two separate occasions yet they really went beyond my expectations. Excellent and superb food and very friendly, polite and professional staff. Keep it up! Thank you!
