if you’re a seafood lover, this branch is a go-to. i personally love their shrimps. they have fast and efficient service which is very impressive for a seafood restaurant. prices are reasonable and the area is spacious. they have a playground for children too. staffs were polite and attending.
This is my new favorite a favorite place in Cebu.
You got to try their mixed seafood in a bag with the Cajun flavor. The salted egg flavor is equally great. I love their chorizo I ordered them separately.
This is highly recommended if you are into local stuff.
Servers were very nice and polite, greeted us at the door. The order was served in 10 mins which is just right so kudos on that, although the avocado shake was served earlier than the dishes which shouldn't be the case. I already consumed half by the time the food arrived.
Now going to the dishes, here's my verdict:
Butter Garlic Shrimp in a Bag- I wasn't impressed. I remember eating in the SM branch, although it was another flavor but it was saucier and I believe the shrimps were bigger? Here, I could hardly see the garlic and the taste was ... average. Not bad but not the best either.
Pork Sisig- I like it. Seasoned just right.
Baked Scallops- Good. Tasty. Great even.
Avocado shake- It was perfect. Not too sweet and blended at the right texture. I wanted more.
Deductions:
-1point: not too impressed with the shrimp. Fresh but not much flavor

Discovered thisnplace while walking along Cabahug. The cook was char broiling a native chicken which was so enticing but was the last of their stocks. Ended up ordering their seafood barkada bag with butter and garlic. It was good and really filling. Could have fed 2 - 3 pax. I will be coming back to try their native lechon manok.
At first I thought it was just some other grill restaurant but what makes it different is the way they offer their seafood menu specially shrimps & crabs!😊 Be sure to grab a friend when dining here because I admit that their servings are usually good for 2. Liked their barkada seafood in a bag because of the shrimps, mussels, squid & chorizo (nasaag sa seafood.. hahahahaha!😂) with dinuguan to make you stay on the land.. haha!😅
This branch of Choobi-Choobi would be my most preferred outlet among the ones they have in Cebu. First, because they are detached from other establishments that you only go to this place when you want to dine at this restaurant. Second is that they have ample parking space. Third, they are very much designed for families, especially the fact that they have a play area for kids. Also they both have indoor and outdoor seating. With the indoor seating, the air-conditioning works well, compared to Choobi-Choobi Parkmall wherein there is none available.
From the number of times I have been here, I can say that the food, is generally okay. Some dishes were less satisfactory. Nonetheless, some of their offerings tasted good, but less than excellent.
It is a Filipino cuisine restaurant, so expect that most of the dishes have distinct and strong flavors. However, I thought their Seafood Barkada Bag was too salty.
I have tried their grilled Golden Pompano. It was just okay. Not very flattering. Perhaps I wasn't a fan of that kind of fish.
What I remember enjoying at Choobi-Choobi would be their Pancit Canton, Shrimp in a Bag (Spicy Gata Flavor), and Stan's Black Pepper Shrimp (the version 2, Singaporean style). I have tried the Stan's Fried Black Pepper Shrimp (version1) and it tasted good: it was well-fried that the exoskeleton was edible.
Great place! Great food! The servings are enough and the prices are reasonable. I love coming back here again and again. I love how open the space is and the different array of foods they offer. And every now and then, they offer new dishes that are sure to delight your tummy. You guys should try it! I recommend this branch out of all other branches.
We frequent here because of good food, fast seervice and most specially the small kiddie they have at the back. Gives the parents some peace to enjoy the seafoods while the kids are enjoying the playground. The salted egg boiled shrimp is the all time fave.
I love Choobi Choobi!!! Their salted egg shrimps are the best. Giving a 4.5 since there are times wherein some of my favorites like their sa-ang is not available. But other than that, place is great!
Love the place. Their best selling shrimps with some kind of sauce are delicious and worth it. They also have different kinds of dishes and its pretty quite good.
