Beer Battered Fish and Chips - Boracay Island

Beer Battered Fish and Chips

Tilapia and Chips: Tasty Fish and Chips

This nice new restaurant serves tasty, crunchy beer battered Tilapia fish and chips in a bright, modern, air-conditioned setting. Tilapia is a popular local fish - flaky and white, perfect for this kind of dish. The meal comes with coleslaw, tartare sauce and a lemon wedge.
The menu also includes chicken and fish fillet sandwiches, hamburgers, fish sticks, soups and kids meals, amongst other things.
Staff are extremely helpful and professional, from the friendly guy who meets you outside the door and tells you about the menu (and first drew our attention to the place) to the smiling counter staff who also held the door for us as we left.
This is definitely worth a try, to either eat-in or get a take-out meal to enjoy on a picnic. Bear in mind you may feel a little cold if you arrive in your beach attire after a day in the hot sunshine due to the aircon.

Address: D' Mall Palengke

Comparison: about average

Directions: Just inside the entrance to the mall wet market section (main road), almost opposite Craft's Department Store, behind the deli.

Price: less than US$10

Oysters Dynamite - Boracay Island

Oysters Dynamite

Bistro Valhalla: Excellent Steakhouse

Good quality steak and friendly efficent service in nice surroundings. Choose from a variety of steak dishes - mine came with a side of baked potato & sour cream and a crisp green salad. The smoked salmon starter was also a treat, as is the broccoli and cheese soup.
Not in the mood for steak? There are plenty of other things on the menu to satisfy your taste, such as chicken kebabs, pork chops, ribs and cajun chicken.


Favorite Dish: Don't miss the huge salads, "sloppy cow" (beef salpicao) & the oysters dynamite.

Address: The mall plaza, station 2.

Price: US$11-20

3-5-7 Restaurant - Boracay Island

3-5-7 Restaurant

3-5-7 Restaurant: Value for Money

This nice, beachfront restaurant is located at 3-5-7 Hotel (south of boat station 3, in Angol). Most of the items on the menu are very affordable and tasty. Try the baked ribs, soups, salads and pasta dishes, as well as traditional Filipino favourites.
The "panini sandwiches" advertised are just regular sandwiches though, not actual paninis.

Favorite Dish: Some of my favourite dishes on the menu include cheesy potato soup, ham and potato croquettes and the chicken cordon blue.

Address: Angol, south of baot station 3

Comparison: less expensive than average

Directions: Located between Cowboy Cocina and Surfside Resort, not far from the bottom of Angol Road.

Price: less than US$10

Varied Menu - Boracay Island
Red Coconut: Varied Menu

Red Coconut has a tasty and varied menu. While it is probably most famous for the delicious pizzas baked in their traditional wood-fired oven, you can also enjoy pasta, steaks, fish, salads and many other dishes, both Filipino and international.
Diners can sit by the poolside, in the garden area, in an inside dining area or at the bar. The decor and music at the bar are a little loud for my taste, but the cocktail menu and friendly barstaff more than make up for it.

Favorite Dish: I love their savoury crepes at lunchtime, the broccoli cheese soup, and the huge, juicy hamburgers. The bar makes great bloody marys too.

Boracay's Best Burgers! - Boracay Island
Cowboy Cocina: West Meets East!

Cowboy Cocina is quite a new addition to the Boracay dining scene, and has quickly become a local favourite.
The menu lists affordable and tasty dishes such as steak pie, ribs, shrimp skewers, home made soups, pasta, fisherman's pie, chilli, steaks, sandwiches and arguably the best burgers on the island. Don't miss the huge double Comanche Burger, served with onion rings and wedges!
Cowboy Cocina is now serving draft (San Miguel) beer - a relatively rare find in Boracay.

Favorite Dish: Try the hearty fried English breakfasts, gammon steak with the works, traditional Sunday Roast Dinner and espresso coffee.

Address: White Beach, Angol,

Comparison: less expensive than average

Directions: A few minutes walk past boat station 3, next to 357 Resort.

Japanese Specialties and More. - Boracay Island
Nagisa Restaurant at Surfside Resort: Japanese Specialties and More.

Nagisa isn't flashy or trendy looking, in fact it is so unassuming that you might not notice it as you walk by. But this would be a shame! You'd be missing great Japanese, Korean and other Asian cuisine, grilled and sizzling seafood and plenty more mouthwatering treats!
The restaurant is attractively designed, native style with lots of natural wood, but the service is anything but rustic, and the food definitely worth walking down to Angol (station 3 area) for.

Favorite Dish: My favourite dishes include prawns and vegetable tempura, the okonomiyaki, sizzling garlic king prawns, mixed fried rice (with shrimp and vegetables) and the spicy kimchi soup (best ordered with a side sish of noodles).

Address: Angol, south of boat station 3

Floremar Beach Garden - Boracay Island

Floremar Beach Garden

Floremar (Pizza da Mario): Great Pizza!

Owned by friendly husband and wife team Mario and Flor, this charming restaurant serves authentic Italian food in a lovely beach garden setting. They also deliver to your door if you are too lazy to walk down the beach. Aside from the usual Italian fare, they also serve sandwiches, salads, omelettes and soups.
Also known as 'Little Corner of Italy', there are reasonably priced rooms available here too.


Favorite Dish: The Tortellini Carbonara is really good, and my favourite pizza is the Napolitana (with basil, oregano, anchovies & cheese). The Lasagne comes in large, tasty portions, though it would benefit from some bechamel sauce. I'm also a big fan of the four cheese risotto, the carbonara and the penne bolognaise.

The Loon Sunset Bar: AKA Tony's Bar!

A couple of minutes walk past boat station 3 you'll find The Loon Sunset Bar at White Beach Divers. It's a relatively new place; a simple, no frills bar & restaurant, but the friendly owner, reasonable prices and excellent food are becoming well known in the area. Check it out for a sunset drink, or try some of Tony's home made specialties such as Cottage Pie, Chilli Con Carne, deli sandwiches, fish and chips, quezadillas, all day breakfasts, tortilla wraps and soups.
For dessert, hit the frozen yoghurt bar for a delicious, guilt free treat.

Address: A couple of minutes walk past boat station 3.

Pizza to Go - Boracay Island
Yellow Cab: Pizza to Go

I'm not usually a fan of fast food chain restaurants but Yellow Cab's pizzas set a pretty high standard. They are more American style than traditional Italian, but tasty and the toppings are generous. You can eat in at the restaurant near station 3, but the tacky decor is offputting. Better order take-out and eat it on the beach, or avail of their delivery service.

Favorite Dish: I like the Corona Chicken Salsa pizza & the BBQ Chicken pizza, as well as the more traditional style Manhattan Meatlovers. Some other tasty options include Charlie Chan Chicken Pasta, Hot Wings, Spaghetti & Meatballs and Stuffed Potato Halves.
