Toyo Eatery

Holy moly, this place is good!! 5 star service accompanies 5 star flavors. Walking into a clean, calming, organized, and beautiful space. We sat down promptly at the time of our reservation and were greeted by the staff. Every course, (22 different dishes), the staff did an amazing job explaining where in the Philippines the ingredients came from and then told the story. The food was fantastic, not going to go into much detail, but every was unique and flavorful. Perfectly seasoned and not typical flavors you would find. The art was in the full package, 123, drop all dishes at the same time and then we get the story of what we are eating. Each dish Was beautifully plated and was like eating a work of art!

If only I could post more than five stars… This place is fire. We visited Toyo Eatery twice — first for the Kamayan menu and the Indoor Dining Tasting Experience. Both experiences were incredible and worthwhile! The team staff at Toyo are all warm, welcoming, and have great sense of humor. They make you feel so at home — as if they are truly inviting you to an intimate experience in their kitchen. The food — from presentation to flavors — are outstanding! The dining experience here is transformational and thoughtful. They really put the food and their guests at the center of their high-quality service. This is one of my favorite places in Manila and I I’ll always be on my list whenever I visits Team Toyo, thank you for your incredible hospitality!

I always go back to the joke "who ordered the ambience? " . Toyo eatery is not just food, its the place, the community and mostly the people. Let me tackle a bit on the food. Toyo eatery served locally sourced produce and elevates it. Think bahay kubo but in a mansion. Was it good? Ive had better. One cannot argue with the freshness. It tasted clean (you know what i mean). And i do appreciate the thought process that went along with the menu. Matalino. Pinagisipan ng husto. Desserts were magnificent. I enjoyed them immensely. Notables on my list were the shrimp dishes, crabs meat, crackers with floss, inasal and all of the desserts. Ai, our person for the night, was quite knowledgeable and entertaining. Laughter can be heard all throughout our dinner because of this charming young person. I love how the staff were so happy with their craft. The love and passion were obvious. Happy shining faces kahit late in the night na. Kudos to Toyo eatery for fostering such a warm team.

I highly recommend this place and will definitely return! My partner and I celebrated our anniversary here, and the service and food were absolutely superb! The staff and chefs were incredibly friendly, and they even showed us around the entire venue. Worth every penny!!👏🏼👌🏼

We had a very good dining experience. Interesting menu and all were sourced locally. Almost 3 hours to finish the whole 8-course meal with 22 dishes (if I’m not mistaken). Our ultimate favorite is the shrimp!!! Excellent service too. Even gave us a takeaway from their Panaderya. Highly recommended especially for special occasion.

Toyo is a magical, magical place. Their food is simultaneously classic and new—they manage to make traditional Filipino fare that is innovative but still tastes distinctly local. Every dish is cooked perfectly. Just the right amount of seasoning and the balance of flavors is beautiful. It's impressive because their menu is changing all the time—still, I don't think they served me a dish I didn't like. Off the top of my head, I'll name some of my favorites. They used to serve the bahay kubo, which looks like a small plant pot: the soil is made of dehydrated eggplant powder. It contains all the vegetables from the children's nursery rhyme! As for mains, they used to serve pork maybe a couple of years ago and it was incredible! It tasted like steak and I still can't believe it wasn't. It was served with the best fried rice I've ever had, with a lovely yolk on top and crunchy little dilis. Recently, their main was fried bisugo—crisped to perfection, scales and all. The vinegar they served it with was incredibly tasty. Dessert is a treat as well. I love their leche flan ice cream with special salt, as well as their truffles with patis (not weird, just adds a nice umami that enhances the chocolate!) Service is also amazing. It somehow gets better every time. Their waiters are so friendly and love telling little jokes; they also explain the food you get in a really passionate way. One of them gave us lambanog shots and even took us to the kitchen to get pictures with all of the staff. Almost feels like you're being hosted by friends. Plus, in recent years, they've started giving you bread from the bakery to take home. The tsoko bicho was so chocolatey and made me really happy when I ate it the day after going to Toyo. The ambience is perfect. Unpretentious and comforting, but very clean and neat. LED lights are positioned to hit your table so you can always see your food in perfect detail. I've been here five times. It might be my favorite restaurant ever. Ever! And I'm a big foodie too. Would rate 10/5 if I could.

I've enjoyed mostly all of my previous fine dining/michelin/etc meals. But not exaggerating when I say that my experience at Toyo was a notch above the rest. Kudos to the entire team, especially but not limited to the staff that attended to us (I hope I got your names right) Miguel, Leila, Tope, Kevin. Thank you for showcasing Filipino food, ingredients, and ofcourse hospitality which you do very well and very naturally. What a great experience that was. I'd give you 10/5 stars if I could. 🙇‍♂️

Wow ! An amazing dinner experience , this was one of the best dinners I ever had in my life ! Team is amazing and knowledgeable, great place with vibrant atmosphere, if in Manila definitely a must ! Chapeau chef Jordy and team !!!

What an amazing experience! Eight course meal brought out 22 dishes. I ordered the cocktail pairing although fearful of how many drinks would come out since I'm not a big drinker. But the wait staff assured me I was overthinking it, and he was right. A drink for every few plates. "A tour around the Philippines" through cuisine, is what it was. From the first steps into the exterior of the restaurant, to the short wait after checking in, to being seated at our two top, the ambiance was chill, the service kind. I let them know I only speak English and they were fine accommodating me, thankfully. With each plate's description and explanation, we were in awe of the beautiful plating and engulfed in the rich Filipino flavors. Some nostalgic of my late grandma's cooking inspiring me to learn to her gulay (vegetable) dishes. I cannot describe the whole meal because really, you need to experience this for yourselves. Overall, the dinner experience was excellent. I cannot just say that the food was amazing bc the food does not work alone, it's the experience. I cannot say that the service alone was great because it was an experience. I cannot say that the ambiance alone was welcoming and chill because it was overall, an experience.

Day 3. Tasting menu #3 This time around I was with my cousin who I had just spent the whole day with. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I ended up at the other side of town to run an important errand instead of doing city activities. We were starving by the end of the day. We got there a little early, but they let us sit down to get started. I don't know how many courses that journey was, but by god it was a LOT of food. The food never stopped coming. It was plate after plate getting dropped off. My highlights: The salt presentation. I was the documentary about it so seeing it in person was certainly a treat Soup/kamote combo Shrimp - so simple and yet whoa. The fried option was equally mind blowing. Dish wrapped in banana leaf - I was a fan of the hot pepper they used Rice and fish combo. This was probably my personal favorite. That fish was so good. I honestly could've eaten the whole piece Lemon ice cream or I think calamansi - so refreshing The vibe here was way more casual. Even the staff uniform was a dead giveaway. They definitely catered to a much younger crowd. We got way more than we bargained for. I lost count of how many plates ended up making it to our table. 10/10 for their bathroom facilities. They have a Toto toilet. That's basically the holy grail of toilets.

Toyo Eatery isn't your typical Filipino restaurant, but it truly celebrates the essence of Filipino cuisine. The service feels like a well-coordinated orchestra--attentive and seamless. We opted for the "Kamayan" feast, which means eating with your hands, and it was a fun experience. The table was beautifully lined with banana leaves, setting the stage for an incredible meal. The flavors were outstanding! If you find yourself in Manila, make sure to eat here; it's a culinary gem!

Dearest Reader, Back again at the Alley and reminded me to write about Toyo Eatery in Manila is nothing short of a revelation in the culinary world. Helmed by the visionary Chef Jordy Navarra, this restaurant masterfully redefines Filipino cuisine, offering an unparalleled dining experience that marries tradition with innovation.

The highlight of Toyo Eatery is undoubtedly its meticulously crafted tasting menu. Each course is a testament to Chef Navarra's ingenuity and deep respect for Filipino culinary heritage. The signature dish, the "Silog," is a deconstructed version of the classic Filipino breakfast, artfully presented and bursting with familiar yet elevated flavors. The attention to detail is evident in every bite, with ingredients sourced from local farmers and artisans, ensuring freshness and authenticity. One standout dish is the "Garden Vegetables," a vibrant medley of local produce that showcases the natural flavors and textures of the Philippines' rich agricultural landscape. The "Binagoongan" pork belly is another triumph, with its perfect balance of savory, sweet, and tangy notes, leaving a lasting impression on the palate. Toyo Eatery's beverage program is equally impressive, featuring a curated selection of wines and cocktails that complement the food perfectly. The staff's knowledge and passion for both food and drink elevate the experience, providing insightful pairings and impeccable service throughout the meal.

Chef Jordy Navarra and his team have created a dining destination that not only celebrates Filipino cuisine but also pushes its boundaries. For those seeking an unforgettable gastronomic adventure that honors tradition while embracing innovation, Toyo Eatery is a must-visit.

I had never been to the Philippines before and we decided to eat our way through some of the best restaurants in Manila. I have to say the ten course tasting menu was worth every penny. The food was delicious and a unique twist on traditional Filipino dishes. Each dish came with a story from the waitstaff that was very professional and passionate about their jobs. Most unique dish I'd say was the dinosaur salt, which was shaved over fresh ice cream. The salt wasn't too strong and had a smoky flavor, which paired well with the ice cream. Highly recommend going and I'll absolutely be back!

This place was ranked within the top 50 places to eat in Asia. I was totally excited to eat here with my niece, who is a total foodie. I started writing down everything that was being served to us, but I was told that they would email me all the information regarding the menu. Unfortunately, I never received the email. I have awesome pictures and delicious memories of all the dishes that had me wanting to come back to this restaurant. This place is by reservation only. Everyone is seated at about the same time so that we could experience the prix fixe menu together. There were numerous beverages or cocktail choices. I apologize for not knowing the names of all the dishes that were served, but they tasted even better than the pictures that I took. I'm hoping that you'll like the pictures as much as I enjoyed eating here.

Having experienced the first Michelin star Filipino restaurant in Chicago, Kasama, my second visit to Toyo reaffirms its Michelin-worthy status. The comforting yet sophisticated ambiance sets the stage for an exceptional dining experience. The food, truly outstanding, showcases local Filipino ingredients elevated to fine dining heights. Opting for the cocktail pairing, each concoction carefully crafted with local ingredients, added another layer of excellence. Toyo's flawless service, coupled with articulate dish descriptions, enhances the overall experience. The standout, undoubtedly, is their leche flan ice cream with Asin tibuok--a testament to Toyo's culinary artistry. If the Michelin guide ever graces Manila, Toyo is undoubtedly in contention for a star.

What I like most about Toyo is how it creatively uses locally-sourced ingredients in showcasing Filipino cuisine. Not fusion, but elevation, Toyo's tasting menu is filled with dishes that are a nuanced, delicate, and artistic expression of the Filipino tastebud. Which I think is also my biggest struggle with Toyo. I appreciate the creative way the different chefs have come up with to put together and present Filipino dishes in this elevated manner. But in doing so, Toyo might have robbed you of experiencing what I love most about Filipino cuisine: how over-the-top bold it is to the senses. The delicacy and artistry is refreshing, but it also made me miss the Filipino flamboyance. Anyway, favourites from the tasting menu were the corn (soooo sweet; the specific location in Quezon where this is sourced is under lock and key), scallops (slurpy, cheesy, though would have liked more of the seaweed), roasted squash soup with sea urchin (such a unique combination of flavours), and dulche de leche bonbon (the hint of patis and the dark chocolate balanced the caramel-y sweetness very well). Service was outstanding (patient and thorough in explanations). The space was artsy. The price, while relatively expensive, was worth a one-time experience. While I wouldn't no-brainer come back, I enjoyed Toyo. Different and creative, it's worth a try.

All in all, Toyo eatery deserves to be the best restaurant in the Philippines and in the top 50 in Asia. The play on local ingredients and cooking techniques were highlighted in each and every dish that was served. Modern contemporary Filipino food has arrived in the Philippines and I can't wait to see it flourish outside as well! The artistry, balance and intention is a testament that they care. The experience here is distinguished and an acclamation to the 7000 + islands of the Philippines. While it is contemporary, they find joy in excavating ancient cooking style and sourcing forgotten ingredients; it is synchronously avant garde and nostalgic, something only at toyo eatery you will observe! Experience it for yourself whenever you're in Manila or nearby the Philippines! 12/10 would recommend!

My wife and I were gifted to the most wondrous 2023 Christmas present from our children. A tasting session at Toyo Eatery! We visited the restaurant yesterday evening, to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The entire experience was magnificient. 22 wonderful, superbly thought out and crafted courses. All the courses were delectable and delicious. Will attach a few photos of our favorites. I want to emphasize that our experience was enhanced greatly by our server, Hannah. She was fantastic! She took the time to explain the numerous ingredients and moreover, the dedicated preparation process(es). She allowed us to thoroughly enjoy a given course before proceeding to the next course. The entire wait staff, chefs, sous chefs, and sommelier were all friendly, professional, and customer oriented. However, what we noticed right away was the unbridled enthusiasm and focus on creativity and detailed knowledge of the tasting courses, with the much appreciated focus on locally sourced ingredients. This common thread was exhibited by everyone on staff, which super enhanced our tasting experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our extraordinary experience. We chose not to opt for the drink pairing option, instead ordering a la carte from the extensive drink list. Four hours and fifteen minutes from arrival to finishing and allowing us to thank the chefs and staff! Seems like the time went by in a flash! Thanks to the entire staff and in particular, Hannah! Also, thanks for personalizing our dessert to memorialize our wedding anniversary!

I booked a group reservation which required a deposit. Their credit card link did not work and customer service was not able to find a solution. I offered to pay over the phone or come in person to make the deposit. After all my efforts, they cancelled my reservation and gave it to another party. Although I am unable to rate the food, this restaurant is not deserving of being named a top restaurant based on customer service alone.

How do you accurately describe Toyo Eatery? It is not a place to go for a hearty meal. It is an artistic gastronomic encounter that will leave you wondering, "what did I just eat, but it was DAMN good"?! Because it's hard to describe each dish, other than it was an amazing flavor explosion in my mouth that I really cannot relate to anything I've ever experienced before in my life. To describe it as contemporary Filipino cuisine would be a disservice to the artistic care, attention, and creativity that the Toyo team is trying to create. Toyo is located off the beaten path in Makati, well hidden in a strip mall and deep within a food court that you'd never know was there other than because you were looking for this place. From the outside you'd think you were lost, but once inside you will realize you've just entered an establishment of artistic genuis. Ambient lighting, fine wood carved tables, and seating available in the kitchen where the huge staff of culinary genuises are hard at work. If you're a foodie, then you will know you've found the motherlode inside this place. I can't describe what I ate at Toyo Eatery. We had the "sampling menu?" that had something like 16 courses. Of course, we also had 5 flights of wine, which made our food encounter here just that much more enjoyable. For each dish, our waiter carefully explained to us what each one was, and more importantly - HOW to eat it. For example, in one dish you set the morsel on your tongue, wait for the flakes to melt in your mouth, and then when half of the morsel is soft then you can bite into it for the rest of the flavor capsules to spill onto your palate. Unfreakingbelievable! If you're a Manila foodie and haven't yet experienced this, then you are in for a TREAT. We had other stuff that was based on traditional Pinoy dishes, but quite honestly I think it's a disservice to call them Pinoy. Chef has created something truly wonderful and unique with his creations at Toyo, and I would say that it's like nothing else I've ever sampled in any other country. So BRAVO to the culinary genius at Toyo Eatery. Something truly special and unique not only to the Philippines but to the entire Foodie Nation.

This review is 3 years too late but I still dream about the "bahay kubo" dish which was my favorite! Definitely worth it!

In for a treat of filipino cuisine degustation with a modern upscale twist. The food by no surprise, was delish. The menu matches the warm ambiance. We are seated at the second level of the restaurant, making it an intimate dinner. Toyo is an ideal spot for date nights and significant occasions. Plating is served in moderation. We preferred the Ala Carte. It was an memorable dining experience I completely forgot about the traffic of QC to Makati!

Overall, Toyo Eatery was like being part of a renaissance of Filipino cuisine moving forward. It is still in the process, and I'm glad I was able to be a part of it and be able to taste it, but I believe this is not how it should end. The execution is not good enough and the flavours should be further enhanced and thought over while still thinking about how to make the dishes more original and innovated in the Filipino food scene. I am willing to go back for the tasting menu so I really have a taste of every dish Toyo Eatery has to offer, and afterwards if it still has not reached my expectations, I will have to say I would not go back. I do sincerely hope and believe that Toyo will improve their dishes as time goes by. Read my full review at www.thefoodi.com

This is a eatery well publicized in local press and rated in the best 50 restaurants in Asia 2018/19. It certainly is a good joint for a good local Filipino fusion food experience. Chef is visually creative with his preparations yet reasonably priced for the gastronomy offering. You can choose a la carte or go with the set menu. Set menu is a better option. Chef's claim to fame is his garden salad, which is offered under a la cart. The restaurant has a bar, most cocktails are liqueur based. It's located in one of the most crowded areas of makati, recommend add time to what gps will indicate to wade through traffic. Finding parking will be challenging on busy days. The servers don't do justice to the chef and his quality of cooking. Most of the wait staff is young kids and don't really pay much attention to tables nor can answer any questions related to menu. Chef is certainly and bold with his creations. You will not go wrong despite of few challenges and distractions because food at Toyo will make you happy.

Amazing flavors presented in equally amazing forms and textures. This makes me so proud of Filipino cuisine and is a great place to take balikbayan friends and family. Actually it's a great place to take anyone! My favorite will always be the famous (chef jordy signature?) vegetable garden but everything else I've tried from their menu in the two times I've visited are very good. Barbecue was tender; the bangus fillet was also quite good! Oh and their version of cassava cake deserves room in your tummy and is definitely worth the carbs! Staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. And I love the furniture too! Check out the big table made of one piece of gorgeous wood they sourced from somewhere in pampanga (its so nice I had to ask).

Awesome food, excellent service, cool atmosphere! If that is modern Filipino cuisine then it deserves a place in the spotlight! For tourists a great way to learn the Filipino flavors with a great value for money! We all had the tasting menu which was great, but definitely too much food for one person!

Fantastic tasting menu with excellent cocktail/beverage pairing (wine pairing unavailable). All members of staff uniformly knowledgeable, friendly and exuberant. Truly special to experience flavors of Filipino cuisine in this format, with these wonderful people, in such a sophisticated but welcoming setting.

Been hearing great reviews on this place, it's Located at The Alley, a new compound at Karrivin Plaza along Chino Roces, near white space. Find it on Waze. This place puts a twist of Filipino food, Opened by Chef Jordy Navarra the guy behind Blacksheep.You can order ala Carte or they have two type of offerings : its seven-course tasting menu (P2,900 per person) - Tomato Meringue + Talakitok, Basi and Lime + Burnt Kalabaza with Sea Urchin and Orange Kamote + Garden Vegetables + Mayura Onglet and Toyo Eatery Silog + Coconut, Lychee, Rose + Sweets or or its three-course set menu (P1,000 per person). :Garden Vegetables or Lightly Battered Espada with Semi-Ripe Guava and Kamias Broth or Burnt Kalabaza Soup with Sea Urchin and Orange Kamote + Toyo Eatery Three-Cut Pork BBQ with Toyo Eatery Silog or Grilled Belly and Loin of Bangus with Toyo Eatery Silog + Sweets. We were four so we all decided to get the Set Menu. To start of they served us bread.The tocino bread and the Sour bread with their special butter were really yummy. To Start off was the Tomato Meringue which melted in your mouth. Then the Burnt kalabasa was delicious, a twist to the usual pumpkin soup and the sea urchin was interesting. And we got to try the Grilled loin and belly of bangus with sticky rice that came with an egg which you mix,there was also fish skin and dried tuna roe for the umami flavor. We also got the Three-Cut Pork BBQ, was had a coconut cider vinegar. Lastly we tried grilled mackarel, my least favorite but my friends liked it. For dessert, we had cassava cake & pralines made of caramel and chocolate with patis. As for the Ambience, I loved it, lovely accents of Wood and Steel. The Acacia Tables were beautiful. The open kitchen is at the end of the room and the bar by the door is beautiful. This place would also be perfect for private parties.

Innovative and delicious. The tasting menu with the bangus was just lovely. The open kitchen was interesting to watch. The ambience was great. Can't wait to see what's to come!

We were a group of four and all ordered the tasting menu which consists of several dishes. At the beginning, when the dishes were coming I thought I was never going to be full bc they were quite small. But boy was I wrong - after around 15 small, delicious and amazing looking dishes I was super full and satisfied. Great interior and waiters as well! Highly recommended!
