Went to celebrate my birthday with friends and family. I paid for family style buffet but sitting down. I was told all the food offered would be unlimited and it should be that way considering I paid almost P3k per person! Some of my guests...were told that it wasn’t unlimited which I only found out about later on which was very disappointing to hear considering how expensive my total bill was. Service was quite slow and servings were a bit small for FAMILY STYLE. There were also a lot of mosquitos and bugs flying around and I think they should consider having candles that were not easily blown out by the wind.More

It has been years since I last dined here and was happy to note that the quality has remained excellent. I had the amatriciana which is one of the best i’ve had. Perfectly al dente which just the right level of spiciness. Serving size is...generous. Their garlic sausage flatbread is also very good. Wonderful relaxing view of the water. Ideal for a lazy Sunday afternoon.More

Consistent, timeless, a sensory experience incorporating food, design, location, view, garden and service. Whether the casual pizza or burger or their special lunches or heavier dinners, one cannot go wrong here. And, the soul of the place is the service... knowledgeable, engaging and simply.... good.

I took my family for dinner and this restaurant made me feel like i was in bali somewhere. Its just little different from what u can find in mactan. The food was good, ambience was fantastic. The only negative note i can share is that...since it does not have airconditioned seating area do expect some flies..More

Expensive but so worth it! Quality of the food and portions exceeded my expectations. Better to book it or come early around 6pm-6.30pm as it can be busy. I had pork belly with crispy skin and chocolate fondant which was more like a very thick...paste (almost like a flan) and they were both so tasty. Portions of the deserts are big so make sure you make space in your stomachMore

A lucky recommendation from a Taxi driver lead us to Abaca and we are so glad it did! There were 9 adults and 2 young children in our group, veryone was very happy with their meals and dessert was sensational. Beautiful staff. Very accommodating of...our big group. Thoroughly recommend.More

My local colleague invited us for dinner at this restaurant with a beautiful outdoor setting. The menu is rather limited but I had the 6 hour slow cooked pork neck served on a bed of greens and mashed potatoes. The dish was excellent. Great restaurant...in a pleasant surrounding.More

We are staying at Abaca resort so , it’s the best choice for us. I stayed at Shangri-La , Cebu , Amanpulo , Philippine before and had tried many fine restaurants at Manila , Abaca restaurant is the best one comparing to all of other...restaurants that I tried in Philippine . Breadfast is included in room rate . Guests can order anything in the menu , everything were yummy. I especially like English Breadfast ,the pancakes were like a birthday cake size and super yummy . They provided the biggest croissants that I have ever have. They prepared for us and ready at 3:30 am the sandwiches was five stars quality ! For lunch and dinner, 2/3 food on the menu were very good. I particularly recommand the beef with flat spaghetti noodles , the steak for two was excellent too, seafood and grilled prawn spaghetti was very good too. Seafood soup was good but not excellent ( fish could be better but the taste of the soup was really good) , fried rib was good but could be better, please don’t order pork belly if you were Chinese , it’s tasteless to me, Chinese pork belly is thousand times better . Duck breast was overdone and I do not recommand too! But you must order cream brûlée which maybe the best one i had ever had and it’s huge in portion! ( I ordered twice, first time was better than second, because the crispy caramelised sugar of cream brûlée at the second time was too thick and too burned). Besides, the environment and service is excellent , highly recommand even you are not staying at this resort! Shangri-La and Movenpick resort are next door but their guests come over here to eat too, we ran into a friend who stayed at Movenpick here one night .More

I visited the Abaca restaurant for a business dinner with a client. And it just so happened to be my fist visit to the establishment, however I have frequented the other abaca branded restaurants in the City. It is a beautiful restaurant with the mood...set completely right, the staff is as always courteous and well trained, as what you expect by now from an abaca establishment. However where the restaurant fell short unexpectedly was the food. The appetizers were outstanding with mussels as well as calamari. But when the time came for the main courses, it all fell flat. The food tasted like what you get in most restaurants here, the short ribs were good but uninteresting in every way. My client had the prawn spaghetti and him as well were unimpressed with the blandness of his food. For the price we pay and the expectations we had we were disappointing in the food experience. I for one who visited the other Abaca restaurant expected more. I guess that was the mistake when first visiting, having too high expectations, but its hard not having high expectations on the food when you pay top prices and expect the food to be such as well.More

We visited this restaurant on a wet and windy but had a fabulous evening . Our server Albert was extremely helpful and friendly and offered suggestions to us . The mushroom and seafood Risotto was very tasty as was the seafood spaghetti . The grouper...bouillabaisse was outstanding and very filling . The service at this restaurant is fantastic and we would definitely return to dine here .More
