Hukad Sa Golden Cowrie - Samal

Eating is very tasty and the place is clean, but its expensive and yet it is worth eating here.

Extremely slow service. Our rice arrived later than the courses so our food got quite cold. Have to ask a couple of times to get our rice. My mother who ordered calamansi juice wasn't told that there is none left so she waited for about 20 mins until she went to the service crew herself to check whether they had gotten her order. Food was average except for the ginataang nangka which was nicely done.

The rice was very very underwhelming. Service could be more attentive. Dishes were ok. Tuna belly cooked right. Scallops were ok. I'm sure they would want to provide a better customer experience overall.

Worst of all Hukad branches. It's a shame it's situated at one of the best malls in Davao yet the service sucks. I highly recommend you try others instead. Gerry's grill or Seafood Island is much better. The waiters has an absolute poor customer service capability. That includes the mananger. Clueless on how to provide a good service towards the customers. We asked for a service water twice nothing came. One of our order was not available anymore but they didn't informed us. We only knew it wasn't available when we asked where was it after the other orders were served. We asked for additional iced tea. No one served it even tho we made a follow up more than 3x to different waiters. Even the manager's tone sounded so arrogant when she came to our table to ask us if we still have additional orders. The whole experience was so bad I cringe at how bad they all are in terms of customrr service. Will never come back.

Good food and good service. menu is displayed outside. friendly staff. they can reserve when it is full. her crispy pata is delicious
