There really isnt a lot of parking available, but as long as you can fit your car in a spot, youre good. There have definitely grown a lot in the many years of my absence. I remember it was an all outdoor setting and the restaurant was still halfway through the field. Now, it takes up the entire lot with a second story spaces and airconditioned rooms and private rooms. I dont ever recall having a turo turo/ karenderia setting, but its there now and its the same as the food as they serve in the menu. Like most restaurants here, they have a place to wash their hands that is outside of the restrooms which makes it super convenient and you dont have to crowd the restrooms for that. Also, you can fill your own water pitchers or glasses at their self serve water station just beside the hand washing station. They were all very attentive to us. We had over a party of 15 of all ages and everyone was pretty fed and satisfied.

As soon as you walk in you will be greeted with a display of fresh caught seafood and you choose whatever and however you want it cooked. We had grilled squid and a piece of prawn and blue marlin for sinigang. There is also a row of dishes that are ready to be served. Ordered "pagi " as well and it was delicious! The place is super clean with rich wood furnishings.

This place is about 3 minutes away from SM city, but because of Iloilo traffic, it could take as…read morelong as 20 frikkin minutes. They don't take reservations so if you have a big party coming, then you better come early to secure seats. This place is popular mainly because of their unlimited korean BBQ but they also have a lot of other dishes to choose from - sushi, several filipino dishes, chinese dishes and desserts. For around 600php per person, I'd say it's a really good deal. The place is clean, service is good but a little bit slow. We don't have a lot of buffet places in Iloilo . There's vikings in sm city but i prefer this one because it's less expensive and they have KBBQ - a must for carnivores like me!

Unfortunately, my experience here was quite disappointing. The customer service was poor and staff…read moreclearly lack training in basic hospitality. The level of service felt more appropriate for a casual turo-turo stall in a public market than a proper dining establishment -- food was served with little care or presentation, and there was no sense of professionalism in how customers were attended to. Management would do well to invest in proper customer service training if they hope to meet the standards expected of a sit-down restaurant

I was told that Troi Oi has New ownership but the Vietnamese food is still very much so legit…read more Also, I'm not aware of any other Vietnamese restaurants in Iloilo so they have sort of a monopoly. The location is perfect too, after your meal, you can take a nice walk on the River Esplanade. Clean, safe, well-lit, and a pleasure to get a little exercise, after a big meal at Troi Oi. They have an extensive menu and I'm sure it's not 100 percent authentic but I do enjoy their chicken wangs, deep fried shrimp, goi cuon (fresh rolls), Bahn mi (baguette with beef sandwich) and their Vietnamese coffee (cold). The pho broth wasn't as nuanced and it certainly lacked the scent of cinnamon. But the catfish in a clay pot is a Vietnamese requirement and that was very good.

LOL The Breakthrough Restaurants, are a very long-running seafood institution, in the Iloilo City metro area, of the Philippines.

The seafood is always fresh and top notch, the service is so kind and helpful and.....you're views are literally oceanside! It's the best way, to enjoy a meal!

This place is so good the chicken is beyond chicken…read more The atmosphere is fantastic, so full of verve, although a bit smoky due to all the inasal grilling going on that it all couldn't be contained in the kitchen. The chicken is sold in parts and I wish I'd ordered two, but being a light eater, I was conservative, and that was fine. The rice was great, but with all the sauces and peppers, this blows the top off the dining experience. Don't just take it from me. What do I know, but I'm purty sure you'll have a positive reaction or you'll have to get your pulse checked. :-)

Expectations have to be lowered for cleanliness, location, parking, etc. After all, Chicken Inasal is what people come here for. There is no air conditioner so be prepared for that. The place gets crowded during dinner time so come early. TIP: Bring a roll of paper towel. Use it to wipe your hands after you wash before and after eating. Price is competitive and service is good despite being busy. I would be back every time I'm in town.

The family had a big dinner here a few years ago and that was my first time at the Granary, which…read moreis located in the Richmonde hotel. I'll be honest, that dinner with the family was quite nice but I can't really point to anything memorable, other than I liked the table settings and presentation of the food. We were a party of 40?? And they were prepared. But in staying eight (8) nights at the Richmonde for a vacation to visit family, I'm so glad we opted to pay extra for the buffet breakfast. I know, I know - Anthony Bourdain states that we should grab a meal far away from the hotel, but I actually liked it here. If you're not seated in the main dining area, by the kitchen, you'll be seated in the bar area. That's what I call the Business Class section. You may have to walk a little farther for your food, but it's not as busy and you can have a quiet conversation. As for the food, I really loved the omelettes which are made to order - I usually just asked for everything. There is a wide variety of breads, rolls, cakes (calorie counting??, not anymore), jams, cereals, there's just a ton of carb choices. My favorite was the Champorado - which is a chocolate rice porridge. Yes, this was a childhood memory in a bowl, topped with condensed milk. For protein, there was a lot of that too - longanisa sausages, beef tapa, and pork Tocino. There was a lot of fresh fruit too, and unlimited bacon. One warning, the coffee was not strong enough so have the hot chocolate instead. It was a pleasure to come here every morning and I had extra family members join me and they don't charge it to your room, so bring your credit card with you.
