The Harbor View Restaurant in Manila is well-known for its beautiful waterfront location and scenic views of Manila Bay. It’s a popular spot for both locals and tourists, especially during sunset, as it offers a picturesque dining experience. The restaurant primarily serves Filipino and seafood...cuisine, with a variety of dishes to choose from. Many visitors enjoy their seafood platters and traditional Filipino favorites. However, like any establishment, there might be mixed reviews about the food quality and service, as it can vary from one visit to another. Some customers might praise the ambiance and the stunning view, while others might mention that the prices can be on the higher side. If you plan to visit the Harbor View Restaurant, I’d recommend checking recent reviews and ratings to get a more up-to-date and accurate impression of the restaurant’s current performance. Enjoy your dining experience!More

We absolutely adore this place! Despite its size, the restaurant is remarkably well-organized. Opting to sit outside turned out to be an excellent choice, providing a wonderful experience of enjoying both the food and the outdoors. It truly felt like having the best of both...worlds.More

View is cool, in case you want to get out of the highly urbanized vibe of the metro. Food is average as well as the crew. Their facebook page claims they are pet friendly but forgot to disclose that pets are only allowed at the...entrance tables and not on the main luncheon area.More

Food is acceptable but crew not motivated. View is ok. Seems local was once very nice but due to Covid a little worn-down.

Finding this lovely “floating” restaurant on the bay for my sister’s birthday was a blessing! The calm and beauty viewed whilst enjoying delicious food not only enabled us to enjoy quality family time, but also be proud of the beauty of Manila Bay. The service...was impeccable and attentive, so indicative of that tried and true Filipino hospitality. We will definitely be back.More

First time to dine here but this place is familiar to me. Just never got the chance to experience before. I have to say the place is okay and windy plus the harbor view and the buildings around are nice especially during night. It' s...just that the way to the restaurant is kinda messy. The food was great but the service time is so bad. Or maybe because its peak hours.More

Mixed feelings on this place. We went for lunch and immediately got a table and our order was taken right away. Sadly, the meal took over an hour to arrive. When it did, they brought the wrong fish. The waiter agreed and offered to replace...it, but we really didn’t want to sit another hour. No apology. No offer to comp. Just “oh well”. We also had a side order of chips. It arrived after we had finished the entire meal and asked for the bill. Again, no apologies and they wouldn’t take it off the bill. Food was good however!More

The service at this place is worse than poor, it’s almost non-existent. We waited 45 minutes before someone took our order. When they took the order, they came back and said they didn’t have any crabs at all. We said could we have another minute...to look at the menu again. Then another 35 minutes without someone taking our order. The locale is on a very polluted water way (with all sorts of unpleasant things floating in it, including underwear and nappies). The food is so so and overpriced by Manila standards.More

Been here in January (2020). Didn't need a reservation, we could just sit outside on "the pier", above the water. I did order a Salmon Pasta, but also tasted the first time Sizzling Sisig. A well known Filipino dish. As a Filipino myself, i was...astonished by the view and the taste of Filipino food. It was my first time going back to the Philippines since i'm a adoptee.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Harbor view on our first day in Manila. The location is ideal, it is actually a dock so you sit just above the sea, all the dishes we ordered were extremely tasty and the staff was very polite. The...only negative I could say is that it is a bit expensive for Manila standards. They could at least make the portions a bit bigger for that price.More

We ordered the seafood basket and they came without the basket. The waiter cut us short when we complained as the visit before the seafood arrived in a very nice edible basket which this time wasn’t there and no one gave us any explanation. Quite...disappointed for the treatment.More

They have the room for 80 people - but I would certainly call ahead and make the arrangements.
