Food is great if you love seafoods the price is also reasonable.
Entoy's Bakasihan is a local gem. We were staying in the Maribago area so it's a 30 min car ride each way, but it's worth the trip if your schedule allows it. The original owner has passed away and apparently the food was even better back then, but the family members have kept it going and still making good food. We visited during peak lunch hour and it was packed. I'm pretty sure we were the only tourists there, which says a lot about how much of a local establishment this is. For about 350 pesos, two of us had an amazing lunch and walked away stuffed. They have both ordinary and adventurous seafood to fit anyone's style. I hope they branch out to other locations someday because they would absolutely do well with these recipes.
A little seaside eatery specialising in eels. You can have it in many different ways, ranging from small slim eels to chunky fat eels. Eels can be in a stew, clear soup or deep fried. You can also get other seafood dishes, like squid, scallops, clams, prawns, ceviche style fish and seaweed. It's a bit of a trek, but worthwhile for a different experience outside the chaos of Cebu City.
The place is not easily reachable and also on first glance doesn’t look really appealing. However, service is super fast as majority of the offer is already ready, the taste is amazing and you are eating really local local dishes. Only recommandation to the stuff is to be less shy and offer what is really typical and really good. Would recommend to those looking for some culinary and travel adventure. P.S forgot to mention the price is really very cheap (for 5 dishes we paid 250 pesos).
It is in carenderia style, like a local eatery/restaurant. Food is already cooked and served upon order. We arrived hours after lunch so there was no traffic and queue. Food was delicious and price was affordable. The seafood were all fresh. Definitely a must try to all food lovers, will definitely revisit.
Not recommended for foreign tourists unless you like this kind of set up and you have a strong stomach that is used to local food. Set up is your typical carenderia, not air conditioned, messy, flies everywhere, and most of all, the locals really love this place. Its always full no matter the time of the day. Food is just what i expected and i enjoyed my meal a lot. They have many kinds of seafoods and everything is affordable. Mas mahal pa ang singil sa habal habal.
The food at Entoys is exceptional! Very tasty and well prepared and you can chose among many seafood menu options. I love the service at the place and the chef is so friendly with the guests and always takes care to offer the best quality! The place though smells like dried seaweeds, if your not picky with the smell then I highly recommend this place
