I think it is a good place to have some seafood. But I was craving some burgers so I asked for some which was in retrospect not a good idea. I got the Beef Burger which came with fries. The size of the burger was huge but nothing else was good about it. The bun was too thick and sweet and the beef patty tasted more of potatoes than actual meat. The fries were oil soaked. I also got a mango juice which was good l. Also the service was kind of weird- it took them around 40 mins to get my burger and the restaurant seemed pretty empty. Oh the views from this place is great as it overlooks the El Nido Beach

The black pepper garlic Prawns were amazing! One of my favorite prawn dishes of all time!
My second course was Fish in some kind of tomato sauce but was also amazing! And also our side which was basically garlic fried Morning glory. Was also so amazing! Would recommend this place over and over again! Best meal I had this trip!

Great food; very hectic. Recommended by locals.
The servers were so busy they got our order mixed up a bit. Missed one of our drinks and gave us the beef version of one of our meals when we ordered the pork. Everything tasted great and we got our food in a relatively short amount of time. The seafood is very fresh, a lot of it displayed alive in front of the restaurant.

We had a lobster, crab , and assorted squid dishes on our last night at el nido, it was delicious and affordable. We picked the live lobster and then they cooked. The black squid ink pasta with seafood was delicious....

Top notch experience. Came here on local recommendations. Food is stellar. Service is quick and attentive. Atmosphere was nice, especially in the open air with the crashing waves. Seriously, food was so good. Garlic butter shrimp and fish kinilaw (ceviche). Fresh and so flavorful. Garlic shrimp may be the best I’ve ever had, including the garlic rice which was rightly heavy on the garlic. Do it!

The place is easy to find, the staff is really nice. The food is very very tasty! You shouldn't miss it if you want to eat fish on the island. It is very well cooked , the portions are big and you will be very satisfied. We ate corn and crab soup, garlic butter fish, coco fish....actually whatever you choose you will be happy!

We ate dinner here 2x. My group liked most of the food here.
- Baked Mussels (taste was just so-so, and the mussels did not taste fresh. 1st time we ate was ok, 2nd time has a weird smell)
- Adobong Kangkong (hubby liked it)
- Adobong Sitaw (too salty for my taste
- Grilled tangigue (nothing special. Just a regular fish with spices/salt)
- Seafood (Tanigue, shrimp) Sisig (taste was great but too spicy for me)
- Fresh Mango shake (disappointing that there was no green mango shake, but this ripe mango shake is a great alternative)
- Adobong pusit (wow! This is the freshest pusit/squid I’ve eaten. I didn’t know that the freshness made the dish sweet and very savory.)
There wasn’t any Blue Marlin when we ate, we would have enjoyed that.
Food:
* 3 star
Service:
* 4 star (nobody checks on you when eating and ask how’s the food, but servers/staff were very helpful when asked or if one calls their attention
Ambience:
* 2 star (no A/C but if one’s ok with it, then good. I do prefer A/C so I knocked off a few stars). I can hear the water hitting the shoreline though, so I find that good and relaxing)
Cleanliness:
* 3 star (not the cleanest restaurant I have ever eaten in)
Restroom:
* 2 star (there’s water, toilet flushes, but ran out of toilet paper when I tried to use it. Soap inside the dispenser was watered down)

Fresh Fish
Was in Palawan for 4 nights. Came here for dinner for 3 of those nights. It was that good! I would recommend any fresh fish (make sure to get the live ones, not the dead fish, the difference in taste is pretty stark), clams in chili garlic sauce, mussels in white wine, garlic butter prawns/shrimp. Also get the coconut shake.
You're here for the fish and the fresh seafood. Whatever you do, do not get any pasta or fries. For the love of god, you did not fly across the world for fried fish or pasta. They're known for fresh seafood. Get it. Even if you don't get the above, anything will do. I think they are the only one who has live fish, live crab and live lobster on display. These are priced per kilo. For reference, we paid a live grilled seabass for PHP1,200. Live lobster can cost you almost PHP4,500. We didn't end up getting it because it was quite pricey.
For 2 people, and 3-4 dishes and non alcoholic drinks, we would average PHP2,500-3,000 per meal.

I ordered a grilled squid, it arrived almost raw, I asked to cook it a little more, they put it in the microwave for 1 minute, raw squid and not edible. the French Fries are disgusting, as you can see in the photo..
And we waited 1 hour before being served
I don't recommend at all !!

Must try in El Nido. Walking distance from the port. They have a bench where you can eat with an ocean view. Generous serving and the shrimp pieces are big. We got the sinigang na hipon and it tasted just like how my mom makes it. The buko shake is refreshing, creamy, and not too sweet. The price is worth it for what you’re getting.
