We started with a Mango Shake and ordered the All-Meat Boodle Fight for two and Pancit Canton. It took a bit for us to get our food and all in all, we thought the boodle fight was A-OK. The All-Meat Boodle Fight included chicken, pork belly, eggplant salad with rice. Though it seemed like it would be a lot since it was a boodle fight, we thought the portion was small. The grilled chicken was good, but the portion was not enough for two people, and the pork belly had way too many fatty pieces, so didn't eat much of the pork one. It was shame, too, since the pork had great flavor. Eggplant salad was very good and liked that it was included. And it was actually a relief that we ordered the Pancit Canton on the side to fill up on, which was a good dish with lots of calamansi flavor! Service was good and there is a full bar here with a sink in the dining area to wash your hands before and after you're done with your meal. But we weren't too impressed with our boodle fight, which is what the restaurant is known for. Glad to have had a boodle fight while in the Philippines, but it was far from the best.

It was a bit far from our hotel but they were kind enough to bring us there via the hotel car for free. It is located on the main road and a lot of people know about it so going there won't be difficult. Interiors showcase local decor and old pictures. It was airy and they had screens around to prevent mosquitoes and flies from coming in. The staff were friendly and prompt too. Since I missed Filipino food so much, we ordered my favorite: Sizzling Pork Sisig which didn't disappoint! Flavours and textures were spot on. We also ordered their grilled chicken -- it was really tasty and juicy, grilled really well and it was well seasoned. Enjoyed the inasal style veggies too, a perfect side to the meats that we had. Loved the different condiments they have on the side of each table -- different dipping sauces and thai pepper. We ordered two desserts: halo-halo and turon with dulce de leche. The halohalo was lovely and apt for the humid weather but the turon was a bit of a let down, it was too soggy and too oily, too bad coz it would've been great. Tambok's is definitely a place to dine in when in El Nido town, food is great and prices are affordable.

Their menu offers the perfect range of dishes from fresh seafood to your typical meat and rice dishes. Prices are cheap and food is served with pretty fresh ingredients along with hearty portions. We had the Pork Sinigang which served 2 for 280 PHP. It did not come with rice which we ordered 2 for 60 PHP total (30 PHP each). With my ever constant Mango Shake, we had a delicious meal with an abundance of veggies, something that is hard to come by while on vacation. If you do not want Filipino food, they even have a Western 'fast food' menu. Not a bad option when it comes to Filipino food and Filipino food you should have while in the Philippines. Skip the Western options and support the Filipino businesses!

Kyla's Cocina offers a decent and nearby opportunity for tourists on the beach to eat without…read moretraveling afar. However, they offer no bathroom and only a "washroom". I think this is unfair as tourists have to pay to use the bathroom around here. Rather than count the fact that you paid for your meal, you must also pay a bathroom fee for a bathroom located outside of the restaurant. I think it would have been more fair to count paying for our meal as also payment for a bathroom, especially since we were a party of 19. Despite this, the service was good and the waitress was friendly. Although, the food was a hit or miss. I ordered the calamari and buttered mussels. They tasted great, but the butter sauce was strong. Sometimes the butter was an overwhelming flavor. While my partner and I enjoyed the mussels, my cousin was not fond of the butter on crab. The crab had mixed reviews from my party as my sister thought the crab was okay. My partner also ordered the garlic rice which paired well with the buttered mussels. And for drinks, we had a mango smoothie. So far, I enjoyed a mango smoothie from here the most. The texture was smooth and it wasn't too sweet. To conclude, I think Kyla's Cocina is an alright place to eat at while enjoying the beach. There isn't too much options or competition yet for restaurants around this area so it gives them an advantage. If there were more options, I may be hesitant to settle for Kyla's Cocina. But as the closest option, this spot was good enough.

Though it's pricier due to its prime location, we thought to give it a try since we were already in the area. We ordered a Coconut Drink, San Miguel Light, Pancit Bihon, Pork Adobo and Pork Sinigang. It didn't take long for us to get our items and overall, the food was A-OK. Of all the dishes we ordered I liked the Pancit Bihon the best and would recommend it. Rice noodles were cooked perfectly and had some nice pepper flavor with veggies, pork and shrimp. The Pork Adobo and Pork Sinigang both had pieces of meat with way too much fat in it. Adobo had good sauce and potatoes, which was actually good, given that adobo usually doesn't have potato. Sinigang also had a nice broth, but was a little light on the sour flavor that sinigang is known for. I did like how much eggplant that you get with it though. Kyla's Cocina is a fine place if you're already on Nacpan Beach and don't want to leave the area for food. You can't beat the location! The experience of just dining out on the beach, steps away from the water was nice. But food was not something I'd crave again.

They are located right on the beach in Central El Nido on Rizal Street. Unlike other "Filipino" restaurants around town, you will actually see local Filipino families dining in. That's how you know it's legit! We visited twice while in El Nido. The 1st time around, we pointed at the fresh seafood outside to have it grilled up and served to us upstairs some time later. I had a Unicorn Fish, a sweet, slightly briny white fish native to El Nido. My friend had a fresh Yellowtail and we also opted for the biggest should-be lobster prawn they had. So delicious. The 2nd visit, we watched the sunset from a window side table as a close to our island hopping tours. On said visit, we ordered Sizzling Pork Sisig, Beef Kaldereta, and Crispy Pata. Each dish was absolutely ginormous and automatically comes with rice. The ultimate best value on the island! Yes, dishes such as Crispy Pata and Sisig are on the fluffier/ fattier side but that's what makes it GOOD. Beef Kaldereta was saucier than I am accustomed but I engorged myself in its richness. Keep in mind, dishes are 250-350 PHP but are served as family style portions. Service was hit or miss at least when it came to getting the bill, but you really gotta raise your hand and yell at them -- it is the way, the Filipino way! They are also more likely to cater to the locals first which may contribute to a wait, but with such a beautiful view in paradise and the bustling of the restaurant teeming with people watching opportunities including some adings coming around selling home-made pastillas de leche, there is just so much to distract while you wait the some times 20-30 minutes for your food.

The bar definitely has a more modern feel to it with loud music playing on the ground level, couches along the wall and dim lighting everywhere. To take advantage of the happy hour, you have to get the same cocktail. We both ordered the Pina Colada which came in a faux coconut shell. It was one of the better pina coladas I've had, as you could tell it was made with fresh coconut and was strong on the rum. I would recommend it here. However, there's a solid list of cocktail menus on the happy hour deal, ranging in different alcohol bases. They do sell bar food here, which is mostly westernized (fries, calamari, etc...) Sava Beach Bar was a nice spot for happy hour, especially if you can get a seat that looks out to the water. Great cocktails and service.
