Located at the 2nd Floor of Southpoint, SM City Iloilo, LIVE HEALTHY KITCHEN serves sumptuous and hearty meals using fresh & natural ingredients! Our food is tasty and at the same time really good for you! It's inspiration came from the love for travel an

This restaurant (also known as Live Comfort Food Restaurant) is among the new ones located on level 2 at SM City Iloilo's Southpoint (just beside Viking's). It looks simple, but has a very homey ambiance. What impresses me about this restaurant is its selection of healthy international foods including original pasta dishes, entrees, noodles, roti, soups, salads, desserts, and much more! Price is also affordable, ranging from about 100 to 400 pesos per course.The place is quite small. It could seat only around 40-50 diners at a time, but it is well-lit, neat and pleasant. Service is fast and the staff are friendly. It could get noisy, however, when there are shows downstairs in the entertainment area of the mall since its glass walls are not sound-proof. All in all, this is a really nice place I would love going back to. Thumbs up!

PUNOT. Flavors of Modern Iloilo.Located along the Iloilo River, it is one riverside dining experience you will surely enjoy.Punot is the first venture of siblings Chef Tope + Advertising Executive Andrea. They pay tribute to their parents Lea and Rogelio
Reviewed By CzarEmmanuel
Punot (named after a particular type of fishpen), which I think opened only last 2013 (after the success of two other restaurants by the same owners in Estancia), is one of my favorite restaurants in Iloilo City. It is located at Riverside Boardwalk, Diversion Road (overlooking the Esplanade that runs along Iloilo River near Smallville). Every time I go there I always go to the second floor for more privacy and a better view of the river.The foods they serve are simply great! There's a good selection of Ilonggo dishes and sea foods. I love their chowder, pomelo salad, baked oysters, sea food kare-kare, crispy pata, and much more! They also have good drinks and desserts. The staff (especially the waiters) are very friendly and accommodating. They don't even mind taking your photos when you request them to.As to how famous the place is, just take a look at the pictures of famous personalities who have come to dine at Punot. They are on display along the staircase. TIP: be sure to call them up first before going there, because sometimes the place gets fully booked (especially on weekends).

The first one of a kind bistro with an art gallery in Iloilo city. Located in a prime location in the heart of the city, In Iloilo Business Park in Megaworld.
Reviewed By Calvin C
A local gem. The menu has wonderful options to choose from. Moderately priced as it should be. Everything was excellently prepared and served in an eclectic and welcoming environment. Perfect place for a nightcap with their extensive selection of alcoholic drinks. Excellent service. The gallery showcasing artworks from local talents is a must-see. Oh and theyâre eco-friendly and they have a fast internet connection!

There are a chain of these around the city and Manila but the one in the La Paz Market in Iloilo is the best and only original one. The rest are allegedly franchises and the broth is not the same.The secret is in the broth which is made from scratch, from boiled bones for stock and not instant bullion cubes. We ordered the biggest bowl servings. Some had only pork while others had the mixed (has liver). The soup is delicious and so reasonably priced. Would keep coming back for more.

Roberto's is like our old Chinese resto at home --- serves the best comfort food. We got the queen sio pao, and four of us shared the gigantic treat. Loved the stuffing of pork, sausage, cheese, and more but it was the lumpiang shanghai which got me hooked. I am still craving for it til now, almost a week since I had them. It was cheap at P14 a piece, and you can smell it right after I got out of the car in front of the resto. I brought some to the hotel and heated it in the microwave, and it retained its crunchiness. The stuffing is not over moist but the outside is quite crispy.

Reviewed By UrTravelBuddy
It has been said that Batchoy originated here in Iloilo and it may be so as evidenced by the no. of batchoy spots around the city. Netoy's in particular is said to be amongst the origal but sad to say, the taste is not consistent.I love and consumed my order and my companion did not enjoy his as much that he asked me to finish the same ... and that's when i found out that the taste is not consistent becauase my friends batchoy is salty as compared to my order which was next to perfect.

It was great having a chance to have our lunch here again. The staff are all accommodating and pleasant. Quite disappointed with the food though. KBL was not that flavorful as the ones I tasted . Fish and other food we ordered are all kulang sa timpla. We used to have our lunch here before and it was really good then. I just hope that they can manage to bring back the good taste on their food again.

The seafood, especially oysters are famed in Iloilo and this is one of the best places to have a good seafood meal with good service. You choose your dishes from a central display counter that exhibits the samples of some of the popular dishes. The waiter then comes to take your orders for drinks and service is prompt.
