    my visit was disappointing please check to make sure they have the dishes that advertised! got…read morethere at 12:30 and there's no more meat in kare-kare. I asked for some and they just added veggies and litid parts, not a single trace of meat. their website mentioned lechon and palitaw but they only have their bagnet version, of what's left with oil visibly at the bottom. again, I had to ask for some which confuses the staff behind the counter Vance there was a little bit left in front of me. He recovered quickly and nice enough to volunteer to bring it to my table. I asked for palitaw and the asst mgr was very polite to inform me that the batch they have that day was already spoiled during delivery. Ice chest for halo halo had black dirt around the handle and scooper was the in ice and part water. Siomai wasn't heated and already cold as well. Grilled beef was difficult to chew. I asked for California roll and the staff behind the counter just a grabbed a whole roll without any gloves or even washing his hands first after touching raw fish. yesterday was my first visit and definitely, the last

A friend and I had lunch last week at Sambokojin Libis, and the tempura station is always adequately supplied. And you don't have to fight tooth and nail for your fill of shrimp. The tempura is really good, as is Sambo's galbi jjim (Korean beef rib stew). There are a number of fish and tofu dishes that were excellent as well. My only complaint would have to be diners that don't know how to work a grill. The grills at Sambo are not smokeless, so it is a tad bit annoying to be seated next to people that are burning their meat and tuna.

Upon checking the menu, the price points is almost the same and even the plating shares the same look. I confirmed that the two is part of i Foods Group including Ichiba Japanese Market in Resortsworld. The setting is really esteemed. There are salient points on food. The takoyaki is overcooked, ramen is ordinarily prepared, and the spicy salmon maki is not at all spicy. There is nothing special on the broth of the ramen soup. The price points can be reasonable though. The commendable ones are Tempura, fresh salmon sashimi and yakitori. Service is also efficient. As a mother's day treat, they serve a free dessert for customers that reaches Php1500 food orders.

    Ambience and Experience Our good friend Diane invited us to…read moretry the Kamameshi Rice at this restaurant where her brother works as a chef. Of course, this got our entire group pretty excited and I'd go for treats anytime if I can! It was great that they already had a table ready for us when we arrived. :) Wide spaces, seat options, and bright lights made the place look really exciting. Their restroom had an amusing sink knob located at the extreme lower right, away from the sink. California Roll This is an easy default for any Japanese roll to try. Theirs was good, refreshing in the mouth, simple, and tasty! Salmon Sashimi This tasted slightly different from what we usually eat at other Japanese restaurants but it was as good as always. With just the right amount of soy sauce and wasabi, I was all set. Takoyaki This was nearly a tie-breaker for first place in my book. It was SUPER GOOD! Texture and filling were just amazing! Tori Teri Kamameshi It's basically teriyaki chicken on kettle rice. This restaurant taught me that there is actually a name for the burnt rice at the bottom, and it's called "Okoge." I've had lots of good burnt rice experiences elsewhere (not only Japanese) but I'm not sure if the reference would still be the same since they weren't kamameshi. Tori Teri was pretty good with tender chicken and flavorful sauce. It can get addicting! Yakitori Everything essentially came smothered with teriyaki sauce. We tried the Baby Octopus, which was slightly chewy and very similar to eating squid. Quail Eggs were, well, eggs! I can't say much about it. Eggs! Chicken Liver was my favorite for the texture and flavor. I'll always try Chicken Liver if the restaurant has yakitori. Service Overall experience was good since we arrived. Lester tried to convince Diane that the Baby Octopus, which she resisted to try, was "kyut kyut." :p Big thanks to her bro Chef Von and the restaurant's other staffers for good food and service! Prices are VAT-inclusive and expect service charge.

    This is my nearest go to Japanese place when I'm too lazy to go Tokyo Town. They serve good sushi…read morerolls and yakitori. I must say their salmon uni aburi maki and oysters are the bomb. Also try their sukiyaki, kamameshi rice, tempura, and the beef tongue- scallop salad. they also have a wide selection of sakes. A little pricey for the average person but you get what you pay for. follow my food adventure at https://instagram.com/edubie

Just enter the sliding door and, I promise you, you will experience authentic Japanese cuisine. Their menu has a variety of appetizers, ramens, sushi, sashimi, yakitori, and katsus. Of all the dishes I must order, it is their Uni Nigiri (Php95 per piece, 2USD). The Uni they serve is always very sweet and fresh. I usually order a few robata (grilled) items such as their Butabara Shio (Php85 per stick, 1.84USD) and Yakitori (Php75 per stick, 1.62USD) to go with their Onigiri Sanshu (3 Kinds of Rice Balls for Php345, 7.46USD). If you really want to go all out, I recommend you order their Chirashi Don (Php650, 14USD), the sashimi will depend on the delivery of the day. They also offer premium sakes to cap of your meal. This is an honest to goodness wonderful Japanese restaurant. If you're in Ortigas, forget those pseudo Japanese restaurants in the malls and head on over to Marufuku. :)
