I enjoyed the entire experience. It was unusual in my opinion that the restaurant was quiet around lunch time on a Saturday. I had the tempura & beef teriyaki donburi and island roll. I found it unique that the beef was served in a patty form but it tasted good either way.

Out of all the Japanese restaurants in Power Plant Mall, this is the most traditional one. They have lunch set offers depending on the day. One ala carte dish I like here best is the Dragon Roll, make sure go try it when you dine here

If I could give 10-star rating, I would.
Zaifu is, for me, a no-frills authentic Japanese Restaurant. Their food reminds of home-cooked meals. It doesnt matter if they use simple and plain utensils, or their food lacks presentation, because the taste more than made up what was lacking in some aspect (or so what others thought 😁)
Here’s what we ordered:
Spicy Salmon Cheese Roll - fresh salmon and cheese rolled in rice and wrapped in nori wrapper. Simple but so fresh. Perfect appetizer. It really perked up our appetite.
Yasaiitame - perfectly cooked, sauteed vegetables (togue, cabbage, onions, kutchai). It balances the meatyness of the other food we ordered.
Gyoza - reminds me of home. Their gyoza tastes so comforting.
Seafood Ramen - the waitress was so nice to offer to split our ramen in two. It has squid rings, shrimps, clams, mussels and lots of chinese petchay. The clear soup really tastes msg-less, not salty but full of flavor.
Salmon teriyaki - fresh slice of salmon grilled with teriyaki sauce. Light but filling.
Mango shake tastes home-made, too.
Also worth mentioning is their freezer of Binggrae and Lotte foods ice cream bar. I tries Lotte foods Greek Yogurt bar (Php45). It’s a greek yogurt bar with a thin coating of white chocolate with blueberry swirls inside. Perfect for washing up the yummy dinner we just had.
