I've eaten here twice, on both my visits to Tayabas, and this is my favorite restaurant in the province (which is saying a lot, as Graceland is in Tayabas and their restaurant is incredible as well). We were there with the whole family (about a dozen of us) and ordered half the menu. I can't honestly say what I loved about the meal other than the grilled tilapia, which was amazing, but it was all fantastic (sisig, adobo, sinagang, pansit, crispy pata... you know, the standards, and all delicious).
Getting the attention of the staff isn't easy. Don't get me wrong: they're terrific and hospitable, but busy as hell. The place is definitely understaffed. So when you order, be sure you get it right the first time, including drinks.
I strongly recommend this restaurant for Americans visiting the Philippines. Like Graceland, this restaurant caters to locals, not tourists, but you'll love the food, not to mention the novelty of having your meal on a floating raft. Incidentally, if you order tilapia they'll scoop it right from the pond upon which you are floating: fresh as can be. read more
