We ordered veggie rolls, law-uy, and an eggplant salad, from what I can remember. The most memorable item for me had to be the law-uy. Law-uy is a soup loaded with veggies and with a lovely broth flavored by aromatics of lemongrass and ginger. I loved how the broth was very clear and crisp and it was definitely a mouth cleanser. Every veggie was crisp and cooked to perfection. The ambiance of the place was really nice, we got there around opening time and it was very homey and warm. We took off our shoes and the wood floor was nice. The staff were all attentive. Ended with some chocolate ice cream to hit the spot. If you're ever in Siquijor, definitely check this place out!

An absolutely beautiful resort! We stayed at Hale Manna for 11 nights and enjoyed it immensely…read more Beautiful, spacious rooms with all the amenities to make the stay comfortable. We greatly appreciated the wonderful service of the entire Hale Manna staff. The restaurant offered a vast menu of delicious dishes. The large complex was beautiful and consisted of professionally manicured and maintained natural gardens and walkways. Numerous covered lounging areas dotted the shoreline, offering quiet secluded areas to relax and enjoy the ocean views. The reef was beautiful with colorful coral, an enormous variety of fish, sea-turtles, seahorses and other wildlife. Professional guides are available to assist snorkelers. Overall, Hale Manna is an outstanding resort and excellent value.

Loved the chicken Sisig and our entire party enjoyed the dishes! Pork, chicken, seafood - all delicious and flavorful. Great staff and service. Highly recommended!

We were served "coffee" for like P50, but it was the "specialty" Nescafe instant coffee popular in the Philippines. It hit the spot, however, and even though the restaurant was open-aired, it may have been hot, but it was welcomed!

The restaurant seemed to have its own park where kids can play. It's pretty dark at night though and I think requires more lighting as it can be a safety hazard. They have a big sign at the entrance of the driveway but it wasn't lit up so it was hard to find at nighttime. My biggest turn off would have to be the band...not that they're terrible but rather that they were too loud and their sound system was awful. I'm glad we were seated inside and weren't subjected to ear piercing sounds but I think it really made the experience less enjoyable.

The Kare Kare with a side of rice was about $7 USD. They even accept credit card! The only downfall was no WiFi but you will survive.

It was a few minutes away from the whale shark watching where we were prior so we definitely came in hungry lol The restaurant was by the road so it was easy to spot. They also have parking space so that was convenient. Be aware that the restaurant is an open one so there is no air-conditioning but they did provide us with a fan which really helped from that hot July weather. Some of the items on the menu were not available at that time like their pizzas but otherwise the rest of the filipino food were. The scallops were good but I guess it came a bit to buttery/margarine-y (lol) for me. Good nonetheless. The pork belly was tasty as usual but my favorite was the crispy pata which the staff mentioned was also one of their best sellers. Perfectly seasoned and cooked! Crispy and meaty at the same time. Writing about it is actually making me hungry. There was one on the menu which was a tad too salty but i forgot which one it was. Anyway overall we had a good and filling meal which was what we were looking for. Clean space, good food, very nice staff and had a wonderful view of Oslob's blue waters. Just be careful coz the "nest" is by the cliff, thus where they most likely got the restaurant name of "Cantilado" from.

The inside is spacious and there's even a few tables along the beach/water that's hidden when you first walk in. They have TV's showing some sort of sports game. Staff is friendly and the cooks are good. The menu is long with a mix of Filipino and western food; breakfast, sandwiches & toastis, crepes, soup, pasta, pancit, rice dishes, salads, appetizers, sizzlers, meats, seafood, pizza and desserts. - Mango pancake (120 PHP) - Excellent! First pancake I've had in 6 months. Hit the spot with a great fluffy texture. - Chicken BBQ (200 PHP) - this dish takes about 10-15 minutes to cook. You choose from plain rice, garlic rice or French fries. Went with garlic rice which was delicious. The chicken was tender and well worth the wait. They love their sweet sauces here; the chicken is coated in it. - Banana pancake (90 PHP) - fluffy, airy texture with a good amount of bananas. You know it's good when you don't need to add much syrup. - Spanish omelette (150 PHP) - the omelette was excellent; flavourful and creamy. Inside, there was onion, green and red pepper, mushroom and cheese. Well worth a try, especially for their pancakes!

The picture of the nachos on the sign looked amazing. The drinks came out fairly quick and were delicious. Off to a good start .....then it went downhill. It took :50 to get the nachos and what they sat in front of us was not nachos! It looked like it might be a multi-layer dip but it was not even that. When we tasted it, well...it was canned spaghetti sauce, mozzarella cheese and ground beef. We asked the waitress and she said that is their nachos. I let her know it was spaghetti sauce and she told us it was the same... tomato and onion like pico and cheese. We talked to the manager and he said that was the nachos, I told him we expected what was in the picture. He asked where we saw the picture. I said on the large menu board out front. He walks over to it looks at it and with a straight face says that is just an example photo of what nachos look like but that ours was definitely the nachos. We paid and left, went down the street to a restaurant that served what they showed. We would never go back. Not just because what they served but that a manager would ignore their own signage. There are too many good places to eat in Moalboal to waste you time and money here. Best part of the experience was having a story of the worst nachos EVER!

The food is cooked fresh. You actually pick your seafood before it is cooked, especially the squid and the crab. Nothing feels rushed, and it shows once the plates hit the table. The fried squid was worth waiting for. Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and not greasy. You can tell it was fresh and cooked to order. The crab was the same story: sweet meat, well-seasoned, and not drowned in sauce. We also ordered pancit bihon, scallops with garlic, pork BBQ skewers, and a small cup of rice. The pancit bihon was flavorful and not dry. The scallops were soft and garlicky without being overpowering. The pork BBQ skewers had that classic smoky sweetness and were nicely charred. Service is straightforward and the vibe is casual. This is not fast food. If you come hungry and in a rush, you will get frustrated. If you come expecting fresh, cooked-on-the-spot Filipino food, you will leave happy. This is the kind of place you go to slow down, eat well, and enjoy food that is made properly. Enjoy time with family and talk; it's nice to enjoy your time while waiting for the food.
