It's buffet style, with fresh seafood you choose on the spot and they cook to order. From fish to scallops to shrimp to oysters, and different ways to prepare and season, everything tasted delicious. They also have lobster and king crab for an additional price. Drinks are not included but can be added for a small price. The service was also superb with different people checking in on us throughout the meal, asking for additional drinks and warning us when it was last call for the kitchen. For those who are considering going soon, they have a discounted rate until April 26, 2019 for the buffet. If you're in the area or coming to visit, I'd definitely recommend you check it out!

Located street side with an open air concept, this is the first ever Bucket Shrimps location. This…read moreoriginal location is located in what used to be the owner's grandma's parking lot. Bucket Shrimps offers a cajun flavour which has been fine tuned to Filipino taste buds. It is a bit sweeter and absolutely bowl licking tasty. It can be spicy or non-spicy. There is also garlic butter flavour. As the name suggests, they offer buckets of shrimps. But it does not end there, you can get crab, mussels, bbq pork, liempo as well. So you can get both seafood and grilled pork items. Eat this with rice. There may be more on the menu, but we stuck to the above. The concept is similar to restaurants offering cajun seafood boiled in plastic bags, but instead of serving the food in boiled plastic bags (which I have to admit is rather unappetizing), this place serves them in appetizing looking buckets :). There are no utensils provided, they give you gloves. There are no plates provided, you just put the food straight on the plastic table cover. You can order beer here as well. Everything was scrumptious and the location is just so unique for North American Standards, like an old school carinderia street food, with no quality being compromised. Kamayan style, street food style, this place is really a different and fun dining experience!!! Note: there may be kids who may come in and ask you to buy their items. This might take away from the tranquility of eating your food in peace.

This place gave me that eureka moment! They even prepared food the way I like it. They have boodle packages for larger groups. We came just before noon so we got undivided attention from our server who was very friendly and helpful. The place was packed within minutes, but the place is huge with lots of room for social distancing. Pictures speak a thousand words, but sometimes, they don't do justice.

So we ordered a Mt. Apo boodle for the 7 of us. The food came out quickly and it was a site to behold (see accompanying pictures)!!! It was a massive plate of garlic rice, fish, meats, etc and soup in a coconut shell. The food was more than enough for all of us. And it was really flavorful and delicious too. All the food lent to each other and accompanied each other. We also had a whole chicken which was moist and delicious as well. The unlimited ice tea was good and refreshing especially while eating all these hot fried foods. Service was fast. The people were nice and attentive to our needs. Im sure if i ate with my hands it wouldve been even more of an experience!! Overall this place left me full and satisfied!!! It is a must try when in cebu!!

I ordered the sweet and sour fried chicken wings and bagoong rice. I did not particuarlly like any of it, which was disappointing because it all looked good. I think that it was a seasoning problem, that has been one of my main issues here with the filipino cuisine.

The fish cheeks were awesome that we decided to get two. My sister , T and I basically went to all the nook and cranny of cheeks to find the last bit of meat in it. We also selected some fresh crab and fish and ask them to cook it for us. Food arrived in a decent amount of time, and really good. Everyone enjoyed the food and we still got some remaining dishes that we took home with us. I highly recommend this place if you are ever in Cebu City.
