Iliganon Restobar

Reviewed By PinayTravelista - Iligan City, Iligan, Philippines

Other than the famoes Durian shake and Randang dishes, Iligan also offers entertainment services for their guests.
The have hourly rental videoke rooms. The rooms do need some new paint and such. And sometimes the microphone does not work well. But the staff are very accommodating despite how busy the place can get.
It is stillone of the option for us when we decide to go singing and have a videoke session when out with friends.

Tita Fannies Liempo & Chicken Haus

Reviewed By rpantoni - Melbourne, Australia

LOCATION: in downtown, at the back of the St. Michael's Cathedral. Very easy to locate.
SERVICE: staff is fast, efficient, although not that very cordial.
FOOD QUALITY: Not the best Liempo or barbeque I had. Better is located in downtown area, close to Jollibee. But good enough to try. The place is very popular to locals though.
PRICE: above the average price in Iligan City.

Pop Rock Cafe

Reviewed By PinayTravelista - Iligan City, Iligan, Philippines

Hometown favorite hangout and comfort food. One if the places that does disappoint in ambience and food.
The renovated place is much better than the last one. Im glad that they have it renovated.
The food and its taste is still the same as it was 5+ years ago. It's one of those places you want to revisit because it brings back good memories.

Fontina

Reviewed By PinayTravelista - Iligan City, Iligan, Philippines

I've recently frequent at Fontina. I have developed an appreciation for their food. My favorite is their Vegetable Spring rolls, Mexican Burrito, and their Greek salad.
I also find the ambience comfortable. Most of the diners are families or business associates on business meetings. The music is not too loud, and the WIFI connection is fast. It makes it an ideal place to work at or just have a good dining experience.

The restaurant is located along the highway. They serve delicious food at affordable price. There is a band that plays around 7pm. Their specialty is grilled food though their chopsuey tastes good.

Reviewed By Bungchow - Cairns, Australia

While ive never actually eaten in at Lai Lai's, we always order some of their pancit, palabok and lumpia for every family get together or special ocassion. It has always been very good, using fresh ingredients and reasonably cheap. I jave always meant to eat in there but as we are always getting Takeout from there we never end up getting to it.

Calda Pizza

Reviewed By Rolly M - Las Pinas, Philippines

I went here aline craving for pizza. They only have outdoor Seating which is ok during the evenings and not during the summer mornings.
The place has plenty of tables and it wasn't full when I got there. I ordered the smallest (11") Pepperoni Pizza and a coke.
It taste really good especially when it was hot. Since they use real mozzarella, you have to eat it while it's hot because mozzarella tends to be rubbery when cold. The pizza was well spiced.
I wasn't able to finish it so I had the remainder packed to-go. The person in-charge if packing handled the left-over pizza like a piece of thing other than food. After seeing him pick up the pizza, tore it like cardboard using hands with plastic gloves, I wondered if the one who cooked it handles the pizza the same. Although the pizza tasted good, this took put a good point from Caldas.

Enang's Grill & Seafood Restaurant

Reviewed By Bungchow - Cairns, Australia

Enangs is situated about 10mins out of the town centre but it is worth the trip. The food is excellent and the prices are very reasonable, and the setup is good as well. There is a downstairs Seating area that has a stage where they have live music most nights as well, but the food is what you come here for. The food is traditional filipino food that is fresh and tastes great, unlike some of the other resteraunts in town it is clean and well presented.We held a reception here after our sons christening, they catered for 60 people and all the food was great and well priced. Overall i would recommend a trip out to Enangs to anyone looking for a good feed of cheap, tasty filipino food

Kyla's Bistro

Reviewed By kuyals - Hays, Kansas

I use to eat here a couple of times a week, but parking is almost always a problem and there is a guy out there supposedly to assist you, but it is always a hassle to deal with him, so I usually go somewhere else. I do like their pizzas and recently went back to partake. Pizza was good, but when I had two slices left I noticed movement and saw a cockroach going across it. Not sure if it came from the kitchen or in the dining area, but for some reason the last two slices did not look as appetizing as the first four. But to be fair, I have eaten here many times and never had any problem before. I will go back, but will check for movement before biting. :-) Prices are average and they do have a nice selection on the menu. They also have good WiFi.
