I ordered the pad thai and she had the shrimp gambes, both of which were served in under twenty minutes and were delicious. Servings were plentiful; I had to take half of mine home for lunch. One caveat to this place (and it doesn't have to do with the restaurant; rather, the building where the place is housed). There's a roach problem. Management has been actively trying to alleviate the issue, but apparently, tenants around them don't. Don't sit next to the doors and you're gold. The drink menu is quite impressive; a trip just for that is certainly justified! A last reason to go: the location is outstanding, and sits right on the boardwalk beside the seashore for a crisp post dinner stroll. Enjoy.

The lines for dinner are long, but certainly worth the wait. Menu is extensive and have some of the best food I experienced in all of the Phillipines (spend 20 days so tri r a bunch of places). Loved the chicken Sisig and our entire party enjoyed the dishes! Pork, chicken, seafood - all delicious and flavorful. Great staff and service. Highly recommended!

I ate breakfast here 3 times during my stay and was pleased to see that the hot dishes were rotated…read moreso there was variety. The included items were a mixture of savory American (eggs, bacon, corned beef hash), Filipino (longanisa, fish, adobo), and other (dim sum??) breakfast items, an egg bar, a waffle maker, cereals, fresh fruit (only 2 kinds though), filipino sweets (my favorite!) The first night I stayed I had dinner too. They have a ton of items to order, apparently 7 types of cuisines are served so they have multiple menus depending on your mood. In my opinion, this is a bit of an overkill. Jack of all trades, master of none. We ordered calamari, broccoli, lasagna, and kare kare. Calamari was good, broccoli was good, kare kare was ok, but lasagna was very weird (sauce too creamy, wrong type of cheeses used). Cannot recommend the lasgana. Generally the food was good, and so was the service. Definitely worth it for me to have breakfast included in the hotel reservation, and start the day right. Cute decor as well. As far as coming for dinner goes, it's ok but not truly excellent. Some menu tweaking has to be done.

They were friendly, courteous and very approachable. There was never a request they've ignored. The whole experience was like a home away from home. Their menu has a wide variety of dishes starting from Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, American, TexMex all the way to Italian. The servings were for sharing and were very affordable (price-serving ratio, speaking). They also have homemade gelato with 3-4 mouth-watering flavours. Alcoholic drinks and liquors were also available.

The name Balikbayan means "To Come Back to your Homeland." Locals shared this is a tourist favorite. Mainly because they open early , 10am to 10pm daily, and can accommodate huge groups. You can even order Filipino breakfast here even after 10am. Love their inihaw (grilled in charcoal) squid. They stuffed them with onions and tomatoes, served with their special sauce. The Halo-Halo was a bit of a let down, but their excellent service and great Island Style cabanas setting made up for it. This would not be my first choice here for dining in Bantayan Island as there are many other foodies in the area as it caters more for tourists, but I would not rule them out for their hours, good price, convenience near the beach and their excellent service. Definitely worth trying. Cheers!

If you live in America, then you may have tried Lechon if you attended a party hosted by Filipino friends. Believe me, though, Lechon tastes so much better in the Philippines. Specifically, I think Cebu makes the BEST tasting Lechon in the world!! For those of you who do not know, Lechon is a whole roasted pig!! A true Filipino Delicacy!! We stopped in at the House of Lechon in Talisay, Cebu to try their version of Lechon. They make a regular Lechon and a spicy Lechon. Both taste fantastic!! Love the mixture of spices they use to make such flavorful lechon!! My favorite was the Spicy Lechon!! It was the best I tasted during our 3 week trip in the Philippines. I tried about a dozen of them!! Hey, there were a lot of parties that we attended and each one served lechon. Anyways, the House of Lechon in Talisay, Cebu is a wonderful place to try this popular Filipino delicacy! Their restaurant looks great inside. Beautifully decorated and the staff was awesome!! 5 stars for the House of Lechon!! They know what they are doing here!!

At first you would think you are entering a resort, there is a humongous pool right as you enter the property going to the restaurant. The restaurant itself is cozy. I felt like I just entered a friend's home to eat. We were greeted warmly by the staff and promptly seated to our table. Ordered several dishes. Crispy Pata, Bagnet, Thai soup, a fish dish, pakbet, fried chicken. EXCELLENT FOOD!!!!! We were also given a rice dish and a Turon dessert. Again very delicious! We will be leaving Tacloban soon. Can't wait to come back here and eat at Village Chef!

My fiancee and I sat at a small table and were brought menus and water. That was the last good service we encountered that evening. Our server could only be described as dour and sullen at best. We placed our order, eventualy, and began to wait and wait and wait. The large party before us was already eating, so I assumed they would not be a factor. I was wrong, they started ordering more things and they were delivered whilst we waited for our appetizers. In the meantime, another group ( small) came in. They ordered their food and what do you know they had it delivered before us as well. About 20 minutes into the waiting period the angry waitress informed my fiancee that they were out of her entree and to order something else. The exact same thing happened with her desert order. I tried to get our supposed server's attention only to be blatantly ignored. When they finally brought our food, all at once, I asked why others were served before us. The only answer I got " they have reservations ". What totally bs, a reservation gets you a table, not preferential treatment the worst part was the insult added to the injury; they added a 10% SERVICE charge
