We came to The Sunny Side Cafe thinking that they would have some innovative foods based on what we…read moreread off Reddit. I wouldn't say that their food wasn't new and interesting, but the execution and fulfillment of my expectations/imagination were issuing. We tried the bacon and mango grilled cheese which was highly recommended by most Redditors and noted on the restaurants menu. They use a bread similar to brioche and it was fluffy and a good option. The lack of excitement in the food itself came from the missing "wow" in the taste. The homemade mango jam was really subtle. The tomato sauce/paste/soup that was provided in the side bowl did not tie the meal together. I'm not sure how to describe it, but I wouldn't consider it soup since it was thick and the tomato flavour really overpowered the taste of everything else on the plate. The shrimp roll was ok - it wasn't bad but it's also not something to write home about. They offered calamansi juice without sugar which was refreshing after a long day in the sun. The staff were kind and they were prompt with our orders. The restaurant caters to a lot of tourists, which is possibly due to its location. There was indoor and outdoor seating and we chose to sit indoors.

*** 9/5/22 update For the two weeks we have been in Boracay,…read morewe have been here 15+ times for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!! Love the food, the people, and vibe! First review: This is one of our favorite places to go on Boracay, if you're in the Bulabog Beach area. It's super chill and relaxing right on the beach. We've been here 3 times already in the past 2 days, so that says something. There are a variety of seating options, at the bar, low top, high top, and even right off the side walk if you want to people watch. The food is good and for a reasonable price. Staff are very warm and welcoming, even getting tips on scuba diving. We went there for breakfast, lunch and dinner! I had the Filipina Cornsilog for breakfast - corned beef, two sunny side eggs, and garlic rice. Not my usual breakfast, but it was good and it came with a side fruit and pressed coffee (tea or juice options as well). I was looking forward to the Tapsilog, but they ran out. My bf had the frittata and he thoroughly enjoyed it. As for lunch, I had ordered the spicy garlic shrimp and a grilled chicken sandwich for the man. One point with the shrimp and it was finger lick'n good! It came with seven shrimp and it was enough as an appetizer. The sandwich was devour in record time! He loved it and already said he's going to get it again tomorrow. And for dinner, I had the pork liempo (pork belly) soy-infused served with rice. My bf enjoyed a grilled vegetable sandwich just as much as the grilled chicken. We'll be coming back for sure!

The total price was $44 inc a pitcher of iced tea. The amount was on the high side, but we found that was the case for Boracay in general. First of all, the pulpo was nicely grilled. However, some pieces were a tad mushy. In addition, the accompanying sauce was too much. Secondarily, the scallops were fresh. But the parmesan dried the texture out. I dipped them in the garlic butter to remedy the dryness. Lastly, the prawns were excellent. They were large, plump and bursting with flavor from the sauce. The dessert was only okay bc the ice needed to be shaved better, and it was missing flan. Regarding the ambiance, its casual here like all the beachfront restaurants near our hotel. The staff was friendly & warm.

Walking along the strip of restaurants and shops at the beach of Station 2 in Boracay, Mom spotted…read moreDon Vito's s sign, advertising that they were serving Bibingka (Filipino baked rice cake cooked in banana leaves) and Puto Bumbong (Filipino purple rice cake steamed in bamboo tubes). Mom had to stop by for the latter, one of her favourite Filipino sweets traditionally sold during the Christmas season. I, myself, was a little surprised that such Filipino cakes were being offered at an Italian restaurant, but, hey, we were in a tourist area of the Philippines, so why not, I figured. After an all-day land tour of Boracay, we had some time to kill before meeting up with a friend for dinner. This is when I accompanied Mom to Don Vito Ristorante Italiano to pick up her coveted Puto Bumbong. We arrived shortly before 7:15 PM on Friday, November 15, 2024, and were seated in the front patio while we awaited the to-go order. No tables were occupied in the outdoor dining area, but I could see that there were a few customers dining inside. Overall, the venue appeared to be clean and well kept. The waitress who took our order knew that we were not staying to dine in. Still, she was kind enough to serve to us a complimentary plate of toasted bread and dipping sauce to nibble on while we awaited our one-item order. I believe that the ramekin of dipping sauce was some kind of balsamic vinegar-based dressing. I tried one bite of the bread with sauce. I was not a fan. After about a ten-minute wait, the server brought to us the order of Puto Bumbong (Php 150, 2 pcs), already boxed up for take-out. Immediately, Mom was dismayed by the shredded cheese that topped the cylindrical rice cakes. She expected them to be slathered with butter and sprinkled with sugar and coconut, just as the sign described. She was turned off by the condensed milk and grated cheese which she tried to scrape off. It was too late, though. The cakes were ruined and so was Mom's experience. The kind waitress offered to have them remade, but Mom declined because she thought that we were pressed for time. Not sure why they would add unexpected ingredients to a dish and neglect to offer the option of adding them instead of assuming that they would be agreeable to customers. Hope that the restaurant learned a lesson here. Needless to say, Don Vito's disappointed Mom big time.
