Jollibee will always be a go-to place for visitors and people on the go. Reliable and fast service.
This Jollibee branch in Ormoc city is located along the main road, Aviles street. Relatively a big place, a two-storey commercial building.
As usual, they have the famous chicken joy and Jolly spaghetti. Always bida ang saya!

Food is similar quality to other places close by, service was poor until I complained and then picked up dramatically. Poor management, with fruit often running out. (Even though there are fruit vendors 1 min walk away) Food can take long to come out.

We went to the place 2 days prior to book our dinner as we had a big group coming.
When we arrived on the night, they did not have our booking. We were lucky we had come early and there were two tables available that could be joined together for us.
The mango shakes that came out were very inconsistent. Some were nice and thick whilst others had too much milk or were watery.
One of the things I enjoyed about this place in the past was being able to choose the raw food from sight and then having them cook it up. They still had that service but only for take away; so we were left to choose from a menu, many of the items we ordered were to available.
I have been here on 3 previous visits to Ormoc; I left disappointed :(

If you're looking for a place to hang out just like in the big cities then Lorenzo's is the place to be. The ambiance is great, the staff is friendly and helpful and the coffee and pastries is fine. However, in addition to the usual coffee and pastries, you have a wider choice of menu to have your lunch or dinner. Is one of the must go places when in Ormoc.

Had a typical Filipino lunch here with friends: chicken, pork, vegetables and seafood like green caviar seaweed salad and agar salad in vinegar. We dined in an air-conditioned function room, good ambiance, good service and reasonable price. I would recommend this place for visitors looking for a decent Filipino or Visayan meal.

JO's Milagrina is a Filipino restaurant that offers a full menu ranging from appetizers, soups, specialty of the house JO's Chicken Inato and JO's Pork Inato (chicken and pork bbq) and filipino favorites like Sizzling Pork Sisig, Spicy Shrimps, Milagrina Ribs, Chicken Halang Halang, Bicol Express, Kare-Kare and the likes. We also serve desserts. Our best sellers are Buko Halo-halo, Mango or Buko Pandan, Window Cathedral and Turon with Ice Cream (banana fritters with ice cream). There's no dress code. But do come dressed presentably. We love animals, but some of our customers might be allergic to some, so we made it our company policy to not allow dogs or any form of animal inside the restaurant. We can serve 120 persons at one time. We have two dining area for our customers to choose from. Aircon area that can accommodate a maximum of 35 diners which can also be reserved for exclusive functions or small group meetings. The open air dining area has a garden view and out tables and chairs are all customised hardwood materials. When you come inside you will be amazed to see Rooster and Chicken decors and paintings around the restaurant.
I have been eating Jo's Chicken Inato, also known as Milagrina's in all of their branches all over the Philippines. Even their Quezon City branch (which is now closed) I have eaten there.
Milagrina's Chicken Inato has become their best-seller and they are known for this. But I also love their Binakhaw, a fish ceviche invented to make a difference. Instead of the usual vinegar and spices for most of ceviches (kinilaw), they use calamansi juice and mayonnaise. Yum, yum, yum!
Their new product, Fresh Garden Salad is also a good way to introduce to vegetarians and the health conscious. I do not know if they are offering this in other branches, but the Chili Daing Dressing is a welcome respite. Unique and tasty!
I will never tire of Milagrina's.

It's the first pizza house in Ormoc to serve New York-style pizzas. Most pizzerias here, except those of Greenwhich, has thin crusts which can be boring sometimes.
My personal favorite and one that you should try is the Meaty Man and Hawaiian. We also ordered the Chicken on the Ranch variety and it tastes good too.
One thing that bothers me about Elijah is their pricing. A 9" pizza cost 140 pesos while the 12" one costs 250 pesos and an 18" may 500+. As a customer, I would rather buy two 9"s and spend a few more bucks instead of buying one 12" or two 12"s instead of buying an 18".
But nevertheless, Elijah's Pizzaria is like a "breath of fresh air" when it comes to pizzerias in Ormoc.
