Food prices are a bit higher akin to city restaurants. The restaurant is situated within Townsquare, an area that provides treated potable water. They have a dining area on a roof deck overlooking the shoreline. Their meals are delicious with generous servings. I ordered their sourdough burger and it sat enormous on my plate. The staff, well mostly the male staff, were very accommodating and welcoming. The female staff looked devoid of spirit and warmth. They hardly took notice when we waited at the reception to be received and seated. Filipino friendly: 4/5

▶️@AGOOD-SOLDIEROFCHRIST " one of the best sunset lounge bars in el Nido " Good evening my brother's and sisters in Christ , I hope your all in good spirit and bringing the good news of the light of the gospel to the people. So , today brings us to the very trendy , yet minimalistic style sunset beach bar towards the end of the town. First Impressions ? Very swanky indeed , loved how open downstairs was , the decor was very minimalistic , yet very warm and welcoming. Very well designed , so extremely impressed with the layout downstairs. They also have an upstairs , which is only slightly smaller , but equally very impressive layout and more fantastic views of the beauty of el nidos beaches. Both downstairs and upstairs between them could easily house 100 diners and probably another 100 standing. The music was chilled house , which is perfect for this type of venue and also right up my street. The menus were clean , not too much going on , didn't seem too expensive either. I opted for the sourdough burger and what a treat that was. The sourdough bread was amazing , the burger was quality meat along with the onions and cheese and the only thing that was missing , was a bit of bacon , which I'm clearly going to add in there next time I order this. My only slight criticism was the mini potatoes I asked for to be exchanged instead of the crisps that came with the burger. They were seriously lacking in seasoning and I really do recommend some rosemary sea salt to be added to this , to make sure there not so bland for next time. The service was decent and thank you Mark for introducing me to a couple of the staff , due to the fact that I also am a musician and DJ. Would love to DJ / peform there sometime : ) Final thoughts ? If your looking for a fantastic venue , that's spacious , very well designed , with a quality menu , with decent food , that isn't extortionate , overlooking some of the breath taking views of el Nido beach , jamming to quality chilled house / loungy vibes , then this is the one for you. God bless ✝️ ♥️ 🙏

We had lunch here and tried the Beef Salpicao and Grilled Chicken—both were delicious with tender meats. The mango shake was good as well. The view is amazing, though we sat in the corner where the portable fan was a bit noisy, and it was slightly hot inside. Parking was quite difficult; we ended up parking far and took a tricycle to get back. Overall, the food is definitely worth the price.

I was completely blown away with this place. The staff were great but the food was amazing. I went for the 600g steak, it was pricey but when it came out I was absolutely impressed. It was as good as the NY Brooklyn Steak house ribeye. We had a lovely l ceviche to go with it and the mango float was equally delicious. The place itself is also really comfy with beach front couches and a huuuuuge tree with a really nice light setup that makes it glisten all over in different colours. It is t cheap here but it's worth it.
