Nice quaint Spanish restaurant. They serve cocktails here as well.

Not as great as others would have you believe, and expensive! The ambiance though is nice and the wait staff is great.

The chef(?) tried too hard!
The majority of the food was not seasoned well, though presented expertly!
The free piece of bread was crusty & tasty! The meagre free fries were cooked well & seasoned better than the rest of the food we ordered, ironically they were free.
The calamansi mojito barely had any mint flavour (even asked for more mint - I wanted to go back there & teach the bartender how to muddle mint & make proper drinks!), and the alcohol was nonexistent. My wife's drink had no alcohol either.
The escargot with bone marrow as good, though not to my wife's taste (she is Filipina). I should have just ordered more of them for my meal!
The shrimp tortellini was good, though the surrounding tomato jam was better as the tortellini lacked flavor itself.
I ordered the parrot fish, recommended by the waitress. It was a poor choice. Mostly bland, with poorly paired sauces decorating the plate. The pickled cucumber was the best thing on the plate.
The tapas platter was large, though poorly textured & half of the offerings were not palatable. Eg. Duck pate is supposed to have flavor & depth, not just mashed up liver! The tomato jam was good. Overall, the ensemble disappointed & we packed up most of it for the dogs home!
We went to Burger King shortly afterwards, as it disappointed & left a poor taste in our mouths!

Delicious, beautiful place. The pork belly with bone marrow was out of this world - hadn't had such a good dish in ages! Such a great experience and hope to be back in Manila soon to try it out again.
