Abaca Restaurant

Reviewed By diam0nd_traveller - Zurich

Excellent. Very difficult to fault, we really enjoyed visiting and eating in this amazing restaurant.
Banana shake was perfect.
Before the starter, arrived some freshly baked bread with sesame seeds
Bruschetta was fresh, the bread toasted perfectly with fresh tomatoes and was delicious
Sea bass was cooked to perfection, slightly crunchy and came with spaghetti
The service was impeccable.
Fantastic ambience. Simple design but best left to be experienced.

The Craic House

The Craic House Irish Bar and Restaurant is the funkiest spot on Malapascua. It serves contemporary cuisine, ice cold drinks and plays the best music in The Philippines, right on the beach.

Loved this restaurant - all is great there: excellent food, the friendly and efficient staff, the fast WiFi, the view!
Beware though: their portions are laaaarge!
And their Lingvini Alfredo and Mediterranean salads are so good that you'll find yourself coming back for more and more. And more!
It was amazing to get such great food and service, thank you!

Ristorante Angelina

Reviewed By Jen R - Bath, United Kingdom

We came here for dinner on our first night in Malapascua, and it was great.
My partner is Italian and is particular over his Italian food, but he loved the pizza here. We ordered a ‘giant margherita’ that we both shared and it was delicious. I tried a couple of flavours of gelato for dessert, and they were great too.
Occasionally the service was a bit slow, but the staff were all nice and it was no big deal. On our backpacker budget, the food was a bit more expensive than other restaurants we ate at on the island, but we really enjoyed this place. If you fancy some good Italian food in a nice beach setting, here’s the place.

Cafe Marco

Reviewed By Aveeno1991 - Manila, Philippines

Our decision to include breakfast in our 3-day stay package was a very good one as Cafe Marco did not disappoint. I never thought I would miss danggit and daing na pusit so much especially when their version was most thin and crispy. It was perfect with garlic fried rice and eggs which they cook according to preference. The staff were so accommodating and courteous - never missing a beat despite the morning crowd especially by 8am. I also enjoyed their selection of healthy drinks. Not the sugary juice kind but their cucumber and ginger infused water which was very good.

Great time sitting on the bean bags for the happy hour and sunset food was good n tasty at reasonable prices .
The waiter memson - not sure if spelling correct - was the best . What a friendly guy always remember everyone's name
Only issue is too many people smoking or would be perfect

Ibiza Beach Club

Stunning architecture and spectacular ocean views make Ibiza Cebu the finest place for food and entertainment in the island. Aside from its DJ sets, themed dance Performances and show bands, one of the most unique experiences this club and restaurant offers is the Balearic-inspired, signature 15-course grill.

Reviewed By vernalyngraceamistad - Cebu City, Philippines

The place is really a 5-star. Very elegant. I went there with my friends and we enjoyed much, especially the food, entertainment, and the jacuzzi. The staff was really accomodating, especially "Maricon" she satisfied us with her service and she was so amazing. She felt us that nothing compares Ibiza Restaurant. Kudos!

Amihan Restaurant - Tepanee Beach Resort

A refreshing dining experience with two panoramic terraces overlooking the sea in Malapascua Island. Located on the top of a hill beside the entrance of Tepanee Beach Resort, Amihan is open for from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Come to savor the flavors of Italian and Mediterranean cuisine, with a touch of Filipino and Asian dishes. Amihan is the result of a set of elements: beautiful structure, great location, good food, selection of appropriate Italian wines and friendly and attentive service. We are able to offer a careful combination of both local products and those imported directly from Italy. The menu is wide and it can also satisfies vegetarians and vegans guests: try our pizza, home made pasta, grilled fish or meat, Italian cheeses, cold cuts, delicious desserts and tropical fruit juices, real Italian expresso and cappucino and much more. If advised in advance, we are able to provide also to the needs of guests with food intolerances or allergies. COME and ENJOY!

Ordered mixed meat skewers and the chicken was raw in the middle. I had to spit it out back on the plate and then showed it to the waitress. She took my plate back into the chicken and then came back later with the same skewer on the same plate. The meat was well done this time, but using the same plate, onto which I had earlier spit out the raw chicken, was not particularly hygienic.

Western Steak House

All the meat that we provide by WESTERN is the ANGUS beef selected carefully. It is the headquarters of U.S. as ANGUS beef agency. I have registered as an authorized Restaurant of Certified Angus Beef Program. Please try our BEST BEEF in town!

Reviewed By Duvetlover2002

We found this wonderful restaurant by accident after wondering around our hotel on a wet day.
The outside appearance pales away the moment you step through the saloon doors into a fabulously well thought out western restaurant.
With friendly and attentive staff, country music and the great decor we were quick to forget we were in the Philippines!
The menu was varied re: price and meat/fish content and staff were very helpful re: my food allergy. Not the best steak I have ever had and not the largest portion of accompanying sides but a delicious alternative to Asian cuisine in a fantastic setting.

Reviewed By Lotusyll - Shanghai, China

We ate there about 4 times. The owner is a big bloke who tries his best to accommodate everyone. Its popular because of the ratings here but its just ok. Service is slow & forgetful. Food is passable. Seafood is expensive here. At the end of our trip, we preferred eating at a no-name restaurant manned by locals, which is situated at the the start of the narrow road that leads to The Pleasure Principle. There is a lady on the right that barbeques seafood in the open. We had the best meals there!
