There are a dozen other reviews in this page that attests to Three Sisters' awesomeness, so this…read morepost won't be long. But yes, Three Sisters is definitely awesome. So awesome. Talagang awesome. Three Sisters has been an institution in Kapitolyo way before Kapitolyo became a popular food hub. Think 70s. This restaurant was built on the tender, smokey deliciousness of its pork and chicken barbeques. My God, those barbeques. When I was still living in Kapitolyo, it wasn't an unusual thing for me to buy two barbeques, then walk around the neighborhood while chomping on to them. I didn't care. Three Sisters used to be located close to the intersection, in a structure that has seen better days. However, they have since moved to a new joint that is brighter, airy, and snazzier. SO much better.

This review is based on the private party reservation my cousin prepped to celebrate her son's…read morebaptism. And boy, did she and her husband go all out for this special occasion. Situated in a private (AC'd, thank heavens!) room, they clearly had over a hundred guests. The seats were a little cramped as the tables were set up a bit too close to each other. And I think that's about where my complaint rests. Otherwise, the execution was nearly perfect. There were enough servers to pass out I believe a 10-course meal and they did it simultaneously. Everybody got all their food practically at the same time. There wasn't a time we needed anything from them other than asking them to slow down because we had run out of space for them incoming plates on our table. (Heh!) For the record, had I known there was gonna be this much food, I would have just tasted (instead of eaten) each dish given out. Everything I tried was delicious. Max's famous chicken, of course, stood out from the rest. They really do deliver on that. FOOD: 5 (Quality AND quantity.) SERVICE: 5 (Perfect. They even made sure our drinks were replenished at all times.) VALUE: Can't comment on this since it wasn't out of my pocket. PARKING: Limited with only a few spots outside. Could be a challenge during lunch and/or dinner hours. OVERALL: 5. I'd absolutely recommend this place for events just like this. I might try to grub here next time I come out of the airport. Here's hoping I catch 'em during regular hours!

We got the family meal, meant for 8-10 people, and it was a ton of food and a wonderful survey of many of the best Filipino foods. My favorite dishes were the seafood kare kare and the chicken sisig. The kare kare was wonderfully flavorful and sweet. There was an abundance of seafood in the dish, from calamari to shrimp. It paired nicely with rice because it was such a strong flavor. Between the 8 of us we finished most of the stew and brothy soups but still had a lot of leftover chicken and rice. We also had a few extra flans because they provide 10 for the table. They nicely packaged everything up for us. This was an awesome experience.

The staff was great every step of the way from seating, to ordering, to delivering our orders on a timely manner and until the very end. Our party of 11 ordered 2 of everything like to name a few of what we ordered are, Pakbet Ratatouille, Octadobo, Oyster Palabok sa Puti, Tapsilog, Boneless Lechon Belly, Dragonfruit chips and many more.

I'd been wanting to try Filipino food, and this place came highly recommended by some locals. The food was incredible. I tried the sizzling sinigang, and it completely surprised me. The flavor was sour, savory, and comforting all at once. I also had the oyster sisig, which was crispy, rich, and perfect with a cold San Miguel beer. Every dish came out hot and well-presented. The restaurant itself has a great vibe!!! lively but not too loud. The staff were really friendly and helpful, especially since I wasn't too familiar with Filipino dishes. They explained what everything was and even suggested a few must-tries. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Philippines. And I'll definitely come back next time!

Since I could remember, THE Aristocrat RESTAURANT has been a regular go-to eatery for my family…read moreduring most if not all visits to Manila, Philippines. Needless to say, during my November, 2024 vacation, I had to stop by here for a snack or meal which occurred on the evening of Wednesday, the 13th. Established in 1936, The Aristocrat is one of the oldest restaurants in Manila and historic landmark recognised by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines with a marker at this original location on Roxas Boulevard, recognizing its contribution to Philippine culinary history. An iconic spot famed for its homestyle Filipino delights like Lumpiang Shangahi (₱415), Crispy Pata (₱975), and Halo-halo (Blanco ₱160, Regular ₱180, and Specia l₱220), the long-loved brand has won the hearts of Filipinos across the country and is still a favourite up to this day. Situated in the vibrant Malate district, conveniently on Roxas Boulevard, the venue offers diners a picturesque view of Manila Bay, which adds to its charm. The place also has ample parking in the private lot and the interior design is clean and well-maintained. With the onsite bakeshop and store, bright lighting, and 24-hour service, The Aristocrat captures diner vibes while welcoming guests to a warm family-style setting with tables grouped together. Showcasing the best of Filipino culinary culture, the extensive menu at Aristocrat boasts bold, lively flavours served in satisfying portions. Signature dishes include the celebrated Chicken BBQ & Java Rice combination, widely considered "the best chicken barbecue in town," and the iconic Aristocrat Adobo Flying Saucer (₱190), a toasted, circular bread pocket filled with savoury chicken adobo. Each dish is thoughtfully presented and every bite serves as a rich celebration of Filipino cuisine. Below are some of what we ordered at my most recent visit: Fresh Lumpiang Ubod (₱175) - This was Uncle Bolo's order. He enjoyed the shredded ubod (heart of palm) sautéed with pork and shrimp, perfectly wrapped and generously poured with the savoury-sweet and thick peanut sauce topped with ground peanuts and fresh garlic. Crab & Corn Soup (₱98) - The thick, creamy broth filled with sweet corn kernels and shredded delicate crab meat was enjoyed for its warm, savoury flavor, mirroring traditional Filipino-Chinese comfort food. Fried Lumpiang Ubod (₱188) - I'm not a fan of lumpiang ubod, but those who ate this starter enjoyed the crispy texture of the eggroll, especially paired with the spiced vinegar. Gulaman at Sago (₱98) - The Filipino sweet, thirst-quenching iced beverage of gelatin cubes with chewy tapioca pearls in a brown sugar syrup was refreshing and beautiful in presentation. Kare Kare (₱925) - Each spoonful of this classic peanut-forward stew of beef and vegetables was full of flavour. Bistek Tagalog (₱450) - This classic, comforting rendition of the Filipino beef steak, featuring thinly sliced lean beef marinated in savoury soy sauce and tangy calamansi juice and topped with caramelized white onions was impressively tasty and tender. Pinakbet na Baboy (₱330) - This dish featuring a medley of vegetables - such as eggplant, green beans, and bittern melon - and pork sautéed in a savoury shrimp paste is one of Mom's favourites. Unfortunately, she wasn't super impressed with Aristocrat's version. Ginataang Laing (₱225) - This Filipino comfort dish of taro leaves and pork bits cooked in coconut milk and topped with shrimp and siling labuya (small, fiery chili pepper cultivar) was richly creamy, slightly spicy and deeply aromatic. 3-PC Chicken Barbecue (₱345) - This is Aristocrat's iconic dish, often cited as the flagship meal of the legendary Manila-based establishment. Their famous Chicken Barbecue is composed of three pieces of chicken (typically drumsticks and/or leg/thigh cuts) that are marinated, skewered, and grilled to a tender, juicy, and smoky finish. Served with Java Rice (a bright yellow-orange-coloured, savoury rice) and homemade Atsara (a Filipino pickled dish made from grated unripe green papaya) both of which bring out the tastiness of the smoky chicken. Pork Barbecue (₱300) - Two sticks of tender, marinated pork skewers grilled to perfection, typically served with Java Rice and Atsara. Dalyn replaced the Java Rice for white rice to complement the sweet, smoky bites of pork. Fresh Green Mango Shake (₱180) - My shake of fresh succulent green mango fruit blended with light syrup and crushed ice was a perfect balance of tangy and sweet - YUM! THE Aristocrat RESTAURANT's warm, polite and attentive service with nostalgic ambiance and delectable, well-presented dishes have made the establishment a beloved spot for both locals and tourists alike, a must-visit for the heart and soul of authentic Filipino fare.

Recovery Food is so good that the first time I came here, I immediately made a mental note to get…read moremy butt back here ASAP! ;-) The restaurant is on the small side, so I had to wait to be seated. Before too long, we were seated and they have us menus. We decided to a couple of their "Best Sellers" - Porqua with Porqua Curry, and Tapa Da Morning with Talangka Rice. They were so incredibly good, it was hard for me to fathom how such seemingly ordinary tapsilog were made into an extremely satisifying meal. The ensalada that was served with our entrées complimented the food perfectly! Tip: The portion sizes here are large enough to satisfy most people, but if you're really hungry, they also have an option to get your dish with three servings of rice. You can't beat the hours this place keeps - they're open 24 hours! That means if you find yourself with a sudden craving for tapsiog in the wee hours of the morning, you can just head here and try some of their amazing food :-)

I went in to this place wanting to just dine and dash because I have somewhere else I need to be…read moreat, however the waiting time for my order to be prepared was longer than acceptable for me. What I ordered was just the Porkqua Curry and it took me a couple of follow-ups before the food was served to me. I forgot to track the time to see if the time of 10-15 minutes mentioned to me by the waiter was met. Foodwise, the taste of my curry order could have been a lot stronger and richer. I felt it lacking in cheesiness and creaminess. The ratio of rice to meat was also not something I can consider balanced. There was a little too much rice on the order than what I would have liked. A last point I would like to touch up on is the higher than justifiable price I saw for my bill after I finished eating. I was surprised that it included service charge. I can understand that it caters to late night bouts of drinks and even the sobering up phase post-drinking, but it should at least have that mentioned somewhere in the menu and not just come out as a surprise later on.

Since the place was about a 15 minute walk from my condo, I first tried it on a Sunday at 2 pm. It's a small local restaurant that's open air on a corner. You can place your order in the counter but have to wait to be seated before they will bring your food. I had to wait a good 30 minutes before a table was free for the staff to clean and tell us to take that table. We got the pecho (chicken breast) and garlic rice, and I have to say, it definitely was good. Hot off the charcoal grill, it tasted best when you add the chicken oil to the rice. Chicken was juicy and was the best I had in Manila (I did try other inasal places before I made that final decision) They give you a box of gloves if you want to eat with your hands but will also give you utensils. Overall, it was a great meal that I did come back a week later at 1130 am, it was still packed but got a table that was open so no wait. Never had chicken from Bacolod but this definitely was better than Mang Inasal and Bacolod chicken.

Apart from their Crispy Pata, you can order anything from the pig, literally nose to tail! I also almost always get their Crispy Pork Belly. The meat is so juicy and the skin is crunchylicious!

I always recommend this place for balikbayans/visitors who wish to have a taste of Pinoy food. This is a very good place to have lunch or dinner. You will find the restaurant on the 2nd floor of Uptown Parade. Best part is that you can enjoy a leisurely walk after your heavy meal. Enjoy! :)
