Nikkei Nama Bar Rada

👍👍 To be honest, I‘ve been ordered this restaurant from Grab several times but just feel so-so. Well, this is the first time I’ve been here dining, I have a great experience! Love the design and vibe here, all the food are much more tasty than grab takeout order. Besides, you can have more choices in...

👍👍 First thing that stood out to me was the ambiance/atmosphere and the design of the place. Basically all candle lit so nice dark lighting (in a good way) and accompanied by the rainstorm outside it was a vibe. There was this cool upstairs bar loft space with a nice bathroom as well. The dessert were...

😐 I was not satisfied with my order here, specifically the Tsukemen. The best part of this was the chashu, but the serving seemed too small for the dish. The rest of the components were underwhelming for me. The noodles felt and tasted quite plain. The tsukemen dipping sauce didn't really differ in ta...

Modern izakaya restaurant
👍👍 Without a doubt, the best food in Manila. This is Michelin star quality and is priced very well considering. Excellent cocktails, chic decor, cozy environment. Every dish I've had the three times I've been there has been outstanding. Really cool twist on a Japanese small plates concept. Cannot recom...

🫤 🍱🍽️ Food overall - Ordered Bistro Signature Bundles. Chicken karaage is not crunchy, the breading is too thick. Sliced beef tasted like tapa. 🥗 Salad/side dishes - the veggies are not fresh 🥺 tofu and sashimi are okay. Miso soup is too salty. 🍜 Ramen (Chasu) bowl - served late, tasted bland. I a...

Tsukiji
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 A week ago, my family went to Tsukiji for dinner. My nephew made reservations for a private room. It was really nice and felt safer having our own area. We ordered the Special sushi-sashimi boat small for the 5 of us to enjoy. We also got wagyu ohmi sirloin and wagyu ohmi rib-eye to share. Some of...

Japanese restaurant
👍👍 I love this izakaya place!!! The food is really good and the atmosphere is awesome. I went there by myself, so reservation was quite easy. But if you're going as a group, it's best to reserve a week or two prior. I tried the Zarusoba, Liver Yakitori, Butabara Kurokosho and Maguro Sashimi. They were...

Kyō To
Japanese restaurant
😠 Complete rip-off!!! There is no menu and they do not tell you the price before you order, they just bring out the food so it becomes too awkward to ask at that point. It was 12,000 pesos for two people not including drinks, just for the food!!!! And the food was really average. It was overly oily,...

👍 All of the food was very good. The service is very slow. We waited 15 minutes to get seated. They took our order when we were outside to help expedite the process. Once we got to our table we waited about 30 additional minutes for our food even though it was ordered early. The food was worth the wai...

Japan Town - Glorietta
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 This place is amazing, it's located on the rooftop so it's not hard to find it. You can choose amongst several restaurants. Ambiance is simple and what I really liked is that you can enjoy late night dinner in quiet. Think that this is actually hard to find in a busy place like Glorietta so I would...

👍👍 I was enjoying the best tasting (not to mention, guilt-free) bahn mi I have ever had when this white guy asked me how it is. He is sitting across me, eating steamed buns and gyoza. I eagerly answered how flavorful the bahn mi is and I asked about the steamed buns he’s having. Since the bahn mi is b...

Seryna Japanese Restaurant

🫤 Food arrived slowly. One by one. So the rice was just there for 10 mins before one viand arrived. After several follow ups, the other orders arrived. Two of the 5 fish tempura has a bad taste to it. I had to ask 10x to be given house tea. Also, some of its Chinese customers are very loud. One even h...

👍 The restaurant is located on the second floor of 88 Corporate Center (Google Maps pin and address are inaccurate). You go through the lobby of the building and go up a flight of stairs past the elevators. The ambiance of the restaurant is good, seats are plentiful, the window seats offer a good vie...

👍👍 I just LOVE their Kuro Chashumen! It was very garlicky and the broth was fairly rich (if that makes any sense). Without request, the noodles were extra hard in texture just like my last visit. Cuts of meat were thin, making me feel less guilty, and the egg was super good even though it was one of th...

Tenya (Paseo de Magallanes, Makati City)
Japanese restaurant
👍 Availed of their limited ebi and steak donburi bowl - was quite disappointed at how overcooked the beef was and how small the piece was in comparison to how it was advertised (all their other stuff are quite true to menu photos). Staff were courteous and pleasant. Food is good as always.

Inagiku at Makati Shangri-La, Manila
Restaurant
👍👍 I can't give an in depth review as my stomach capacity is not enough to sample everything. If you're planning on getting into a food coma, this is the place. Drinks included in the buffet are hot and cold water, coffee, and tea.

Japanese restaurant
👍 I loved the Special Kaisen Chirashi Sushi with miso soup because of how filling it tastes together. I also really liked the Soba Curry. Some items were unavailable so I opted for some Bbq sticks which were alright. I would come back again to try their other sushi bowls or sukiyaki.

They tasted authentic and looked Instagram-worthy. The staff were very courteous and accommodating. The...
