Pinác’s menu covers specially made dishes from breakfast to dinner and tantamount to a buffet idea, it has a wide array of interesting native dishes to choose from. Each done in skillful and meticulous preparation.Cut above the restInterior is classy, ambiance is welcoming and fairly so, the rate is justifiable. You know you’ll end up paying right for what is quality and pleasing for belly (as well as for pocket). Just to ameliorate a little more on serving, and presto! it is a gastronomic haven to be. Suffice to say, Pinác setting is ideal for special events, corporate meet ups, or simply a great way to treat yourself and/or love ones after a long and hungry day. The food itself is divine. So the choice is between yes and yes.yes.A healthy startWe were confronted with a challenging appetizer. Hito Balls, Mustasa and Buro is intriguing in looks and in taste, exceptional, however. Shredded catfish rounded and coated in breadcrumbs and deep-fried. Paired with salty-sour buro (fermented rice) along with mustard green leaf prior to dipping in Pinac’s home-made vinaigretteThree’s a treatPinoy’s all time fave Suman, Mangga at Tsokolate are pretty cool combo for dessert. — a delicious platter of breaded rice cake pieces served with sweet mangoes and thick cocoa sauce. Delectable, Hearty and lip-smaking in one. We craved for more.

Unfortunately, their Zomato rating (3.9) is overstated by at least 2 stars. :( We had the bangus sisig for appetizer and it was canned and not cooked enough. The Beef Kare Kare had 5 small slices of beef and tasted like it had just been mixed with a cup of cheap peanut butter. The Salted Egg paro was so bad. No taste of both shrimp or salted egg. The best thing that was served that night was the Houseblend Iced Tea, and that's because it's store bought. ????

Extremely poor and insulting service. We were not allowed to dine inside since we were only two when in fact there were a couple of tables inside for us to dine. Now, I don't mind eating outside when there are no tables available inside the restaurant but when there are tables inside (not reserved!) and the weather is extremely hot, I can't help feeling insulted. Does the restaurant cater more to people of groups of three and beyond?
