  • 5/5 Kevin G. 6 years ago on Google
    A newly opened bar and restaurant (2017) in Malate Manila. Every night, people come to grab a drink and listen to live music that is mostly blues, acoustic and jazz and this has made them one of the most popular watering hole in this part of Manila. The food is very, very good. Don't miss out their Sisig Rice and Chicken Lollipops. We knew that it was full house so we gave an β€œallowance” for some delay in service BUT the servers were efficient enough. The entertainment was good and the management seem to be very discriminating in their selection of entertainers. They only get THE BEST. How about security? Well, you will see several big burly men in black shirts to ensure the safety of everyone. Yes, Minokaua can be and will be your next favorite resto in Malate, Manila.

    Looks like a good place for Jazz and chill time. I had their burger as most of their food is for sharing which sucks for guys who roll by themselves like me. The burger wasn't bad and not expensive. There's a charge of 100 if you're watching the band. Parking is on the street which sucks as there's not a lot of it so I had to park a few blocks away. I came here for a night of jazz. On Facebook it said they'll start at 9. It's already 1015 and it doesn't look like they're going to start anytime soon which sucks.

    When in Malate area, this joint along Adriatico offers an alternative to the mainstream offerings in what has turned out to be koreatown neighborhood. Interesting food. Live music performances. Art on the walls. Interesting place keeping up with its history.

    Nice and cozy. It's a bit small but artsy place, definitely a must try resto bar. I love their food, because it's really delicious and not pricey. Also, they have different live bands that play every night.

    Great food. Nice place for a gig.

  • 2/5 Julie P. 4 years ago on Google
    The place is very small and can only accommodate very few people. Just three tables with a sofa. It's a good place to wind down, if you want to listen to music. They have a live band that plays music from 60s to 80s. Very limited food choices and most of the items in the menu were unavailable, including the Minokaua cocktail - the house specialty. We went on a Wednesday and the band was quite talented. They cater to baby boomers.

    Small place for live event and bands. Food was more on bar chows and not so much wide selection for a meal. Example: They ran out of burgers to begin with. They had great Indie bands performance. Main problem was Where to Park and customers safety outside this establishment. Kids pestering you and following you around asking money is an example. Bring friends along would be the best.

    Superb location for live music. Very cozy. Saw the four corners band perform. They were really good playing jazz music. Different days have different bands though, please check their facebook page for latest updates.

    Unfortunately our experience was not the same as other reviews that I read about this place. Maybe because it was a Thursday night? We arrived there at 8pm and ordered our meal. We ordered what we thought was butter chicken and garlic toast. It took a little time to receive our food and when it arrived it was not what we were expecting. The chicken was only fried chicken not butter chicken. The garlic toast had no taste of garlic at all. The beer I received was not cold and was only 3 quarters full. The rest was just froth. We waited until past 10pm for the band to start but got tired waiting so left. We did not get to hear the jazz/blues music that we came to experience so we left tired and disappointed.

    A lovely place to hang around with friends listening to good rendition of jazz. My mates and I had a chance to attend the performance by the Four Corners Jazz Quartet on thursday night and what an extraordinary performance..!! Service by the restaurant is good. Staff are friendly. Will definitely go again. Checkout the restaurant's facebook page for upcoming events and their lovely menu.

🫀 The place needs a deep cleaning and update. I saw roaches crawling around on multiple occasions. Additionally the pool tables are a centerpiece to the bar and are not maintained well at all. They are unbalanced and the felt is old. The pool sticks are all old and warped as well. I know this establis...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great cozy restaurant and very accommodating staffs. Spent our anniversary dinner here few days ago. We enjoyed the beautiful sunset and Manila's skyline. We tried their best-selling Sizzling Bulalo, but there's lots of fats. Next will come back for their other items in the menu.

πŸ‘ ♠️ Place - so their place is located at the 11th floor but you need to go up to reach the top and their open area. They have closed aread with live band @ 11th floor and it was closed. I appreciate that it was cool and lively. Their comfort room, to be honest, was dirty. But if you're looking for a...
