Where to eat International food in Manila: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on International food in Manila, Luzon, Philippines. Metropolitan Manila encompasses six cities and 12 towns. Located on Manila Bay in the South China Sea, and bisected by the Pasig River, the capital of the Philippines is historic and modern, rich and poor. A popular sight is the walled area called Intramuros. The capital during Spanish colonization, Intramuros has retained old dungeons and gunpowder rooms but added art galleries and theaters. The city is filled with museums, shops, parks and churches, plus enough nightlife to last until dawn.

Food is great and the selection, though not too many, seems sufficient. What I love about this place is the ambiance. You are in the middle of the historical Intramuros, not that far from the churches, and has a good view of Manila at night. Perfect also for date nights.

Came to Manila for the first time in Feb/Mar 2017 for a friends 40th B'day. Had a couple of nights at Dakota Cabin Cafe Bar and Bistro and my friends B'day. Had a great time on each occasion. The food is superb and there is a touch of the UK if you want a taste of home. The Curry Kiev is outstanding! Wonderful friendly atmosphere and within 5 minutes you are made to feel like a friend. Will be looking forward to coming back again and will visit Dakota Cabin Cafe Bar and Bistro again as soon as I can.
8. Corniche

Located on the Lobby level of the Manila Diamond, the buffet offering of Corniche is bar none extraordinary. Something to chose from virtually any cuisine (Indian, Western, Japanese). Servers grill satay, toss salads and produce amazing pizzas right in front of your eyes. Lots of amazing fresh seafood (including local crab, fish, etc.) Don't overlook the custom sundae stand or scruptuous desserts. At less than $40 US the buffet is a bargain.

There is Forever @ Cafe Adriatico I have loved you from the very beginning my eyes laid on you. And just like wine you age with grace... And every time with your old ways, I always find something new. Everytime I visit Manila, It's a must... I just go crazy with Cafe Adriatico's out of this world desserts. I normally would have 3 various slices and 2 to go. My top favorite us called Canonigo w/ mangoes.I love their version of braso de Mercedes soft merengue, balls of Philippine mangoes and condense milk syrup. This dessert will take you to another heights, like eating white clouds in heaven, totally melts every bite in your mouth, I meant do not chew, do not bite, just put it inside your mouth on top of your tongue and just feel the sensation as the merengue disappears by itself and leaves you gasping ahaahaahahaha!!!!.. after you keep your composure, it's time for a mango ball and syrup and this concoction of ingredients bring you to the second level of foodgasm... w/ a sip of strong brewed coffee you're ready for the second round... of triple chocolate mouse., buttery & crispy sansrival, etc.,etc.,.. now get ready for your metformin and tell the waiter to prep your pineapple upside down cake for take out and what ever is left... I should say 5 star for desserts, ambiance, attentive quick service and overall experience... So since the eighties until now, you have been my forever. My Cafe, my very own Cafe Adriatico. I swear, I will be forever married to you.

Reviewed By gideonm800
Food and ambience was excellent. But the service is a complete disappointment. The wait staff and food service crew need serious re-training and reorientation on customer service. Waiters obviously ignore diners needing service. They will just walk by your table and pretend not too see you even if you are already raising your hand to call their attention. I wonder why the waiters always look straight at the walls of the dining hall or on the restaurant floor while doing their chores. The waiters crossed by our table several times before we were able to call their attention to order tea/coffee and ask for refill of our water glasses. I even had to approach the restaurant manager, Ms. Edwina Mondonedo, and give her myself our bill with the credit card to pay, as no one from the service crew seemed to have the interest to come back to our table. Quite embarassing to our guests from the US. I hope the restaurant manager and head waiter will seriously take action with the feedback we gave them.
