I seriously think some people were sent to earth to make other people's lives better - the same way…read moreI think I was born to eat and enjoy life at its fullest. There are a lot of reasons I'm glad I'm alive, and one of them is Restaurant Verbena. One really can't expect anything less than wonderful from the restaurant of one of Tagaytay's premier luxury bed and breakfasts, so I have been longing to try their take on country fare with a local twist. I certainly wasn't disappointed with our meal, which started with their mozzarella and tomato starter, served fondue style with warm focaccia. We then had Caesar salad, which was interesting because the lettuce leaves was still intact with the stem (not entirely sure if it's called the stem though). We chopped the leaves and mixed the dressing and thin slices of cheese before devouring the delectable salad. For our mains, we had their brick chicken, which as we were told is cooked in a pan and having a hot brick placed on top of it for it to have its distinct flavor. It's served with sweet potato puree and a mix of capers and sundried tomatoes that was incredibly yummy. As if that wasn't enough, we got the black truffle mushroom risotto with bits of bacon. Goodness gracious, it was one hell of a dish. To end our meal, I felt like I had prima ballerinas dancing in my mouth when I devoured their chocolate marquise with pistachios, which was a cross between a chocolate mousse and a creamy ganache.

Surprisingly, mine is only the second reviewer. This is such a great restaurant located in…read moreTagaytay. For starters the bone marrow is excellent and huge! The lobster bisque is good and the foie gras soup is great the steak is amazing

I'm not usually a fan of thin-crust pizza, but Mama Lou's changed my mind…read more Me and my fabulous hubby were in the mood for some pizza, and Mama Lou's had captured my husband's interest for a while. We visited it for our anniversary, and the Italian bistro interior was truly captivating. They had some watercolor advertisement prints, a nice wine rack, and other touches to sell the bistro atmosphere. The supervisor, Mark, was extremely engaging, and along with our server, Aira, made sure that our visit was stellar. We enjoyed talking with Mark very much. We chose to eat the spinach and artichoke dip, the mozzarella sticks, and two fourteen-inch pizzas. I LOVED the pepperoni pizza. It had a spicy, addictive sauce that really gave it oomph. The assorted meat pizza was great, but I'm not the biggest fan of Canadian bacon. It was still delicious but didn't wow me as much as the pepperoni did. The thin crust delivered on its promise: tender dough under the toppings with a crisp, cracker like crust. We truly enjoyed the experience. The dip had this baked cheese crust that really elevated the taste, and was served with fluffy, flour tortilla, fried chips. This dish was my second favorite next to the pepperoni pizza. The mozzarella sticks were also amazing, with what seemed like hand breading. I'm used to the kind of mozzarella sticks you get in diners, so these sticks tasted a bit... classier? I think that's how I'd describe it. Anyway, I invite you to give Mama Lous in the Nuvali Solenad Mall a try. I think you'll be happy you visited.

Steak photo on their menu look's appetizing. What I got looks something else it seems. It looks…read moresad. Taste was fine maybe because I was starving. It was cooked medium and I guess I shouldn't ordered medium to begin with and a steak on a filipino guised italian restaurant. Service of course is not good but works when I wave my hand for 2 minutes :)
