10. JO's Milagrina
Reviewed By Oparazzo
It looks like we've found our new favorite in Calbayog City.After hearing some positive rumors about this new restaurant - the Ormoc-based chain came to Calbayog in November last year - we tried it out today and were really, absolutely, totally pleasantly surprised. They serve classic filipino food in a modern, elegant setting (the main pieces of decoration are two Gallic looking cocks, indicating the source of their specialty). Between the nine of us we shared quite a variety of items, from crispy pata over their flagship dish, chicken inatô, to beef kare kare, to name just a few. Everything was perfect (and finished to the last bite), except the nondescript pancit Macau (which was mostly left over and packed in a doggy bag).The service was flawless and fast, and every five minutes or so someone from the kitchen came by with a big rice container because rice is unlimited, a fact well appreciated by some of my young male relatives. And, last but absolutely not least, in contrast to other traditional restaurants in Calbayog (Kamayan or Marcial's) they serve fresh juices and shakes. Bravo!We were so happy with everything that on the spot we made arrangements for an upcoming graduation party next week.

Cafe Maria Rosarion is the closest to a Starbucks-kind and Conti-like of treats in Catbalogan City.The snacks are almost Manila-priced but are sweet and tasty. There's a once-a-week buffet of local dishes, which offers not to many dishes but are still plentiful and delicious.
8. Sky Viu Bar
The fascinating and cozy Sky Viu Bar at Baypark Hotel will create a lasting impression of al fresco dining and chill out place. Located on the 5th level of Baypark Hotel, overlooking a panoramic view of Calbayog City. With such mesmerizing ambiance with l

After a long tiring day, we had a very nice dinner at the Sky Viu Bar at the 5th floor of the Baypark Hotel.Food was very good, nothing fancy but getting that wonderful wine was a winner!

Whilst staying at S R Bed & Breakfast in Calbayog, we ordered from Marcial's grill.The ordered meals were sizzling pork chop, sizzling squid, baby back ribs and cucumber salad. The sizzling pork chop was extra dry and covered in garlic, the baby back ribs was good and meaty but again sauce was full of garlic, cucumber salad was a few slices of cucumber and a few slices of tomato, the sizzling squid was more like a chop suey style squid.Overall the portions were good size and mostly tasty if an excessive use of garlic.

Misty Blue is a must stop for anyone making their way down to Guiuan, or the greater Eastern Samar area. You can expect the best service of your life while enjoying drinks in the beautiful saltwater pool or having a romantic dinner in one of the palapas overhanging the ocean. Greg, the owner, is an absolute gentleman and a wonderful person to just idly chat away the day with. They have now, more or less fully recovered from the typhoon and have added on several rooms for guests to stay. Accommodations are few and far in between in Guiuan and this is the only hotel I would recommend in town. It is the only place with decent service and the only spot where someone can really relax, given the pool and easy access to the sea.Greg will go out of his way to assure that everything you need is provided, whether that is a good deal on a private boat for some island hopping, or a backup generator when the power goes out (even if you are the only guest). Misty Blue offers great woodfire pizzas (as long as you aren't expecting Italian) the best breakfast in Guiuan (maybe the best in the Philippines) a full service bar and just an all around great time. I really can't say enough about the folks here, do stop by and support what they are doing.
5. Our Nest Restaurant

Just walking distance from our hotel, cafe eusebio. Had a dinner meeting here with the Municipal Health Officer of Catarman for empowerment of women on Cervical Cancer Prevention Services. It was a great dinner to end our busy day.We tried all the food with a 'thumb's up sign' and it' s all worth to try, the fish steak, sexy ribs, fish siomao and the other pork menu (forgot the name). We really enjoyed it.

City Grill may unseat Rosario's as the best casual diner in Catbalogan. Here's why: entertainment.In most nights, CG has a live singer or band playing. Add this to the cozy but contemporary ambience and the senses may forget the great food in the menu.The fare is the type, which is almost like metro type but still kinda provincial type. How can this be better explained: simply put, the menu is like what you'll find in major Philippine cities; but the serving size, presentation and taste still keeps in mind it's still local cooking.Parking may be tough on rush hours as the place has no parking but along the curbside. In evenings, this will not be an issue as Catbalogan is quiet past 7pm. Overall, it's the best place in the Samar capital, at almost any time of the day.

Sea food is very good. Accommodating staff. Not far from Ciriaco Hotel. You need reservation before going there to assure good seat because limited seats in the resto. (they are planning to add the tables) . They have an eagle (idk) in the resto. Apply insect repellant when eating at night. mosquitoes everywhere. Not air conditioned.

When youâre in Calbayog City, Philippines Mango Lounge and Bar is a destination must! You will be greeted with a smile from the staff members upon arrival. The food menu consistent of local favorites in addition to western style dishes. The food is always flavorful and delicious! Iâll recommend my personal favorites, a cheese burger or chicken sandwich with a side of onion rings. The beverage menu offers a variety of choices. You can enjoy domestic beer such as Red Horse (Filipino favorite), Pale Pilsen (seems to be foreignerâs favorite), or imported beer such as Heineken. If your occasion warrants cocktails you will not be disappointed with the selections offered. The atmosphere is relaxed and laid back, yet it also has an energetic feel. You can enjoy live music from local bands. You can fully indulge your experience by participating in karaoke! The establishment is safe and in a convenient location (being a foreigner safety is the most important factor in decision making). A high level of cleanliness and organization is maintained throughout the entire establishment. Every visit I was comfortable and I always enjoyed myself. The food was consistently delicious. I always left with a smile! The next time youâre in or near Calbayog City ask a trike driver to take you to Mango!Dear Curious221072Thank you for your positive yet informative review, I am sure that this particular review will advise the readers accordingly. Here at Mango, we believe that the most important aspects of business is not the money it generates, but the experiences we help to create. We look forward to welcoming you back here at Mango Lounge hopefully soon,Kind regards

Rated very good knowing that the place just recovered from typhoon haiyan. Also, there were limited resorts in the place. The view facing the beach is the best spot, very calm and relaxing. However, the foods are a bit pricey :)Thank you Vanessa and sorry for late reply. We are sorry you found our food pricey, we try to keep the price on the average and some Italian meals may sound expensive but are actually much cheaper than in other Italian resto in the Philippines but, according to our customers, with same or much better quality.Wish you al the best!
