The restaurant also has a related farm where they grow their own food and sell unique products. We enjoyed a delicious meal on the balcony overlooking the stunning sea.

They offer tasty food with unique flower ingredients. It was such a great dining experience that I would definitely come back for another visit.

The restaurant is located on a bee farm and all the dishes had a smoky aroma. They forgot to include the vegetarian cheese in my dish twice. read more The restaurant is located on a bee farm and all the dishes had a smoky aroma. They forgot to include the vegetarian cheese in my dish twice.

Mention the word vegetarian and they will go out of their way to tout their food as organic and gluten-free etc etc. Atmosphere was completely ruined by a cat meowing in distress from the back of the restaurant towards the kitchen. This started halfway through our meal and continued for the rest of our time there. I got up to ask the staff what was going on and whether we could help this cat at all. They could not have cared less and sort of laughed it off without bothering to check what was up. Very dodgy. We left wondering whether they were killing cats in the kitchen. There are other places in Bohol that you 'll find vegetarian food. Give this place a skip.

When I inquired about caribou and coconut milk icecream they told me all ice cream was made with the water buffalo's milk in combination with coconut milk. There IS another Buzz cafe about 1/10 mile away on the main street, with just ice cream and they confirmed their's was 100% coconut milk based. It was amazing!

The restaurant also has a farm where they source their food (although they use bees, which is unfortunate) and sell a variety of unique products. We enjoyed a satisfactory meal on the balcony overlooking the stunning sea views.

The meal with edible flowers was fantastic and made for a unique experience. I will definitely be returning for another visit.

The restaurant has a partnership with a bee farm, giving all the dishes a smoky flavor.

I came in and asked about the vegan options and the waitress informed me that nothing is except the ice cream. I managed to 'veganize' an option that is quite delicious (high quality organic food), but organize a 99.99% meat and fish restaurant on happy cow while there are several other options..

Among our favorites, Café Jasz offers good quality cuisine, a pleasant atmosphere, and relatively efficient service (not always perfect, however). Our favorite dish has been the grilled chicken, delicious, juicy, and tender. Portions are large but prices are a bit on the higher side. Quality comes at a cost, but we were impressed! Delicious desserts as well (big enough to share!)
