Cerchio\u00a0means ‘circle’ in Italian, the inspiration behind the restaurant’s\u00a0interiors. It serves Filipino<\/strong> dishes specializing in grilled items. It’s for<\/strong> families looking for a homey place to have delicious Filipino food. It’s not for<\/strong> those who are more fond of Western flavors. We recommend<\/strong> the Crispy Pata, Kare Kare, and their signature Pork Sisig. Our insider tip<\/strong>: You get a free treat on your birthday!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mexican Belly is a 14-seater diner run by couple, Marty and Monique. This laid-back and cozy diner serves affordable Mexican food<\/strong>, the recipes of which came from Marty\u2019s mom. It’s for\u00a0<\/strong>people looking for cheap affordable eats. It’s not for<\/strong>\u00a0burrito chasers.

All the way from Tokyo, Dohtonbori\u00a0is Japan\u2019s #1<\/strong> okonomiyaki<\/strong> restaurant chain that offers the first cook-your-own okonomiyaki experience in Manila. It has over 300 stores in Japan, with branches in Thailand\u00a0and Taiwan and this is its second\u00a0branch\u00a0in the Philippines. It\u2019s for<\/strong> foodies who enjoy DIY meals, don’t worry the servers can also cook for you. It\u2019s not for <\/strong>people who prefer American-style pancakes.\u00a0We recommend<\/strong> the Deluxe Okonomiyaki, Four-Cheese and Dohtonbori pizzas, and their premium yakiniku. Our insider tip:<\/strong>\u00a0They’ve just opened a new branch in SM Mall of Asia.\u00a0Read\u00a010 more cool facts about Dohtonbori you need to know about, here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

La Spezia is a new Italian hole-in-the-wall<\/strong> that features a fresh and simple menu composed of timeless dishes\u00a0and standout desserts.

Mama Lou\u2019s Italian Kitchen started out as\u00a0one of the South\u2018s biggest neighborhood secrets, but because good restaurants can\u2019t hide forever, it is now a foodie\u2019s destination for authentic\u00a0Italian<\/strong>\u00a0eats. This\u00a0is its 2nd branch and is meant to cater to Northerners.\u00a0It\u2019s for<\/strong>\u00a0families\u00a0and children who enjoy eating in a homey setting.\u00a0It\u2019s not for<\/strong>\u00a0solo diners looking for small portions.\u00a0We recommend<\/strong>\u00a0the Risotto Tartufo Funghi, Spaghetti Seafood Olio and\u00a0Pizza Tabarnes.\u00a0Our insider tip:<\/strong>\u00a0You may\u00a0request to have 1 pizza in two halves – each with a different flavor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Frazzled Cook is a quirky restaurant put together with the mission of serving good comfort food <\/strong>in\u00a0a cozy, homey ambiance. \u2018Frazzled\u2019, which means completely exhausted, says\u00a0nothing of the food, but the passion and hard work\u00a0put in to every dish they serve. It\u2019s for\u00a0<\/strong>casual but intimate date nights or cozy meals\u00a0with the family.\u00a0It\u2019s not for<\/strong>\u00a0people who don\u2019t enjoy searching for \u2018hidden\u2019 restaurants. We recommend<\/strong> the Sizzling Squid, Wagyu Salpicao, Truffle Pasta, and Pancake ala Mode. Here\u2019s an insider tip: <\/b>The place is easily curtained off into sections, and they also have rooms for smaller private events.\u00a0Read our full feature\u00a0here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Vikings Luxury Buffet opened its first branch in the Mall of Asia complex in 2011. Five years and 9 branches later, it is now considered the\u00a0Philippines\u2019 largest luxury buffet chain<\/strong>.\u00a0This homegrown brand\u00a0has expanded all around\u00a0Metro Manila, the Visayas and Mindanao\u00a0(full feature here). It\u2019s for\u00a0<\/strong>families and groups who are looking to celebrate special occasions affordably. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people who prefer the quiet and relaxed ambiance of a hotel buffet. Our insider tips<\/b>\u00a0are (1) Visit on your birthday month for a free meal. Don\u2019t forget to bring a valid ID. (2) Get discounts at\u00a0SM Jazz<\/a>, SM\u00a0Marikina<\/a>, and SM BF<\/a> branches when you book a table through Booky.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

RB CTY \/ Rib City is a fun and interactive\u00a0restaurant specializing in ribs,<\/strong> but they also offer dishes like pasta, salads, soup and other mains. In line with their restaurant concept, they encourage guests\u00a0to play and build legos while waiting for orders. It\u2019s for<\/strong> barkada<\/em> nights out or Saturday playdates with the kids. It\u2019s not for\u00a0<\/strong>people who are looking for a quiet place to work in. We recommend<\/strong> the Big City with CTY rice or the Twin Tower. Our insider tip is\u00a0<\/strong>that they are offering an Unlimited Promo that includes ribs, chicken, sides, churros and drinks for only P399\/head from 2-6PM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
