We went here last night for my birthday dinner. Hubby saw this place during one of his jogs and was curious ever since. The place was tastefully furnished and exuded a warm elegance. The waiters were attentive and always ready to give recommendations when asked. I really appreciated it when one of them pulled up a mini table where I can place the bouquet of roses hubby gave me, so helpful.
We had prawn scotch quail eggs for starters - highly recommended. Next we had pizza (buffallo mozzarella, tomato and oregano) and crispy soft shell crab. The pizza was fine but the soft shell crab with mint, cauliflower puree and apricot chutney were really yummy. Next we had the dry rubbed wagyu hanger steak and the blackbird burger. I have read good reviews before about this steak and I was not disappointed. I had it done medium rare and it was so soft and tasty . Hubby was not a fan of medium rare steaks but he loved it as well. The beans on the side were still crunchy and complemented the steak nicely. The burger was good though it was a bit too pricey for its size. We were quite full after the mains, so for dessert I just had a scoop of rhubarb crumble. I never had rhubarb before so I tried that one. It was served with a candle on it and a Happy Birthday greeting. It was a really sweet gesture.
Overall, we had a really superb experience. The ambience, the staff, and the food all deserve 5stars. We didn't have to wait long for our food, the atmosphere was intimate, and everyone was just really having a good time. We would definitely be back to try the other dishes and drinks.
The food is great, the location is nicely situated. Overall this is a perfect place to dine with an intimate group
All I can say is, what an amazing place!!
I booked this place one month before our anniversary and they were very accomodating thru the phone and mentioned the guidelines during quarantine, and stuff like that.
On the day itself we were running a bit late and called ahead and they didn't mind and moved our reservation 30mins late. There were only a few people eating at the time because it's a Monday evening.
We ordered the Mushroom Capuccino, Tartufata Panini, which tasted really great! The truffle was not too powerful to overwhelm the mushroom and they blended together really well.
Lobster, sweet shrimp, fennel, chili, and tomato spaghetti. The lobster was really meaty and juicy and the flavors really mixed in well and tasted like a rich seafood pasta.
SRF Wagyu Hanger steak, Mustard and Tarragon Dressed fine beans, Thrice cooked chips and Bearnaise sauce. This is one of their best sellers and I ordered mine medium-rare. The knife easily slices through the Wagyu meat, the sauces perfectly compliment the meat as well. The fries that comes with it was really good too.
The ambience of the place was real nice, it was very modern of black and white color scheme which is real clean. The staff were really nice too.
Only downside is, it is a little bit overpriced with medium sized servings.
Will definitely come back again another time!

nothing was bad but nothing was particularly excellent/blew us away either.
Opened the year with a dinner in Blackbird. It is commonly categorized a date night spot with its romantic and elegant setting. The aviation theme is derived from Nielson Tower as it used to be the Manila International Air Terminal during the early days. They serve a top-notch menu combining asian and european food. Service is also apt that you actually get what you pay for. We went for pizza, pasta, steak, desserts and it exceeded my expectations.
Thank you very much for great time. We really liked the atmosphere. Foods were good and service was good too. We could not order main dish because our stomach got so full after soup. Red paste (I guess it’s made from dried tomato) served with homemade bread was very delicious. I will definitely go back.
Servers constantly checked in on us which shows good service. Food is great😍 flatiron steak 👍
The service is excellent, no question about it. Staff members are very well-trained, polite, attentive, and knows the history of the place. The food can be better, though. Tried the fish pie (their specialty) and it was just okay. The lobster pasta was okay as well (pasta was a bit undercooked). I really loved the grilled chicken, though, and the bread board. Servers give great recommendations for wine that goes well with food.
The lamb rendang tastes great! But hoped the serving is bigger considering the price. Their house blend iced tea is okay. Ice cream has big serving. But definitely recommends the lamb rendang!
We loved everything we ordered. Will definitely visit again 😍
We’ve decided to have dinner here the night before my brother’s wedding. Everything on this place is worth it. Food was delicious, ambiance was magical, excellent service. I apologize, I forgot the name of the dishes and champagne we’ve ordered. They are all great.
Came in with a VIP client that night and I couldn't help but think that the steak quality could be better and the dark chocolate cake could be less dry. Overall, the ambience saved the high average food.
