Best truffle oil pasta I've ever had! Great selection, friendly service, fun place! 5 stars, hands down.

Great place!

Looking for light music and some ME time this place is perfect to njy the evening and must try chili prawn with wine .

Great ambience for intimate dinners. The callos is delicious and the paella is both filling and satisfying.

My partener and I recently had dinner here. We both enjoyed the food, the place, and the service.

We had the paella valenciana, pollo iberico, and callos. Everything tasted great and the service was excellent. Staff were friendly and very attentive.

I like that the area inside was small, which made our dinner more intimate.

Been seeing Wobbly Pan lined up with the other restos situated at the ground floor outside of  Shangri-la Mall. So when I was invited to have late lunch there for taste test, I immediately said YES! :D

What would I recommend here are the ff:

Tapas? Go for their Gamabas Al Ajillo, Pulpo A la Gallega and Croquetas de Calamar. :D

Paella's? Paella Valenciana and my favorite Paella Negra!!! :D

Servers were accommodating and friendly too!!! :DI highly recommend eating out in this place if you are in the area. :D

I craved for some Spanish cuisine!

Was able to try their paellas, and so far, they had the most outstanding paella's I had here in Metro Manila! (Yep, lemme just focus on their paellas first, lol)

The Paella Valenciana won me over, with the right amount of spice, tenderness of rice, seafood and ughhhh what more can I ask for?! And also, we had the Paella Negra-- it's unexpectedly good even if I expected it to taste like a dish with squid ink all over, but it's not! It has that aftertaste that makes you want more. As for the Paella Mechada, it's definitely mechado style but much classier than what I usually have (of course).

For the tapas, we had the Salpicao, Croquetas de Calamar, Gambas Al Ajillo, Chorizo Frito, and Pulpo A la Gallega. Best paired with their sangria! I really loved the Gambas (since I love shrimps) and also the pulpo-- my very first pulpo. The salpicao was savory as well, and I'm not fond of chorizos but I liked what they did to their Chorizo Frito. It was surprisingly good!

Would love to come back soon if I dropped by near Shang.

Oct 2019 Update:
Back here again because craving for their tasty & delicious tapas... with rice! LOL. They’re no longer on the Eatigo discount app but luckily I found then on the Bookyapp for a ₱300 discount with a minimum of 1k bill. Excellent service from server, Bernie. Still as good as the last time, we ordered the Gambas Al Ajillo, Chorizo Frito, Pulpo A La Gallega, and 2 cups of steamed rice. Server Bernie thought though that since we ordered rice, we didn’t care for the bread hehe, but we do! Good thing I remembered to ask for the complimentary bread and butter that comes with the tapas we ordered. But he’s forgiven because he gave us extra butter haha. Everything was wiped out clean including the garlic, oil and sauces LOL. Although I didn’t drink, my companion did have a beer, you guys should check out their happy hour, acoustic nights and unli wine promos.


Original:
I’m giving this establishment a perfect score of 5 based on my 2 consecutive visits: yesterday as a guest at a foodie event and today I went back as a paying customer (not GC!).

Maybe I would have given it a 4 just because the prices are not exactly cheap but after comparing them with similar Spanish restaurants, their prices are actually reasonable. Also, they are currently on the Eatigo app which allowed me to reserve today with discount. (Note: Use my referral code “EatigoRia” if it’s your 1st time to register to get addtitional credits. The app is free to download as well as to use. I’ve been using it for years and got more value for my money when dining out because of the app.

On to the food: Based on my introduction, having said that I immediately went back the next day, it’s pretty obvious that I liked the food we sampled the previous day so much that I wanted some more and also let my companion try it and he agrees, the food is good! And if you are like us who love garlicky, spicy (although they can also tweak the level of spiciness to your preference), tasty and okay, oily, foods then you will probably like it here too so give it a try.

What I love most are the tapas!!! The exact same set of tapas that we were served during the event are the same ones I ordered again the next day (minus the croquetas). And aside from bread, I ordered 2 cups of white rice (I know Paella is their specialty, but we were only 2 pax and ordered 4 tapas plus they’re so tasty that I imagined they would go very well with plain rice and I was right). The servings are small (tapas usually are so that’s expected) so you might want to order more than one of each kind if you are in a big group.

These are the tapas that I highly recommend:
1. Gambas Al Ajillo - the shrimps are small but perfectly cooked and swimming in glorious garlic & oil which you must spoon over your paella, white rice, croquetas or bread - whichever, just make sure you wipe that dish clean because I know I would (or already did actually).
2. Salpicao - tender, perfectly cooked (again) beef, with the same garlicky goodness as the gambas and this one is a bit pricier than the others but a more substantial serving too.
3. Pulpo a la gallega - this is probably the best version of pulpo for me! I’ve tried several and I’m liking this one because it’s tasty, saucy and I especially like the pairing with potato gratin and manchego cheese. The potato gratin is the bomb! The octopus is tender too.
4. Chorizo Frito - this one is value for money at ₱390 an order. It’s cheaper than similar chorizos I’ve ordered in other Spanish restos and I enjoyed it a lot plus it’s my first time to encounter chorizo served with aioli for dipping. I love aioli with almost anything so it was a pleasant surprise.
Again, I paired the above tapas with white rice and with bread (and butter) and it was one of the best meals we’ve had.

During the foodie event, aside from the tapas we were served Paellas and my favorite was the Valenciana especially the bottom part which I scraped off the pan, it was perfectly “tutong” (“socarrat” I think is what it’s called, I’m not so sure). And again, a little of that garlic oil from the tapas makes their paellas even more enjoyable (for me).

We also tried the creamy lengua (delicious tender lengua paired with creamy sauce, lengua lovers at our table gave their 2 thumbs up) and Cerdo Asadoor the slow baked (for 4 hours) pork belly with ultra crunchy skin which I hope they consistently maintain because for me aside from the tender pork, that crunchy skin is my way of testing if that pork belly is good - and it passed!

Lastly, we were served Canonigo for dessert - delicious, perfectly fluffy and soft meringue drizzled with caramel /sugar syrup and cream but when I checked the menu, it can be perceived as a bit pricey at ₱250 especially if you’re expecting a filling dessert. But that’s what Canonigo is - a slice can look big but you can inhale it in seconds because it’s so light!

I almost forgot, got to try the Sangria too and I enjoyed it. Tip: Check out their Happy Hour and Acoustic Night promos as they have promos for pitchers or unlimited sangria respectively. We tried the red, but white sangria is also available.

They have free WIFI too if that’s a plus factor to some hehe.

P.S. It was also nice to know that the restaurant is family-owned and that some family members are very hands-on with the business. They have been around for 2 years already yet it’s my first (and second, LOL) time only because their main entrance is from outside the mall (by the street) although they also have a door by the elevator near Mercury Drug, it’s a bit hidden, and I usually come from the basement parking when entering the mall so I never got to notice them before.

There are lots of dishes to try here. Some go-to classics are the Iberian Chicken and their Paellas. I also enjoyed their Bread Pudding dessert, which was paired nicely with ice cream.

Check out their Acoustic Nights, and get the outside seating. Great way to end a long week. From breakfast until midnight, they got you covered with good food!

Ordering thin crisp pizza during tea time. It’s quite delicious. Portion is pretty big so it can be for two persons but price is a little bit expensive.

Ambiance and service are good! 👏🏻👍🏼

We had a working dinner meeting here and it was my first time. We were welcomed properly, designated our seats and had a great service crew because during our whole stay they were all attentive to our needs and they kept on refilling our water goblets without us even asking! You can notice by the cleanliness of the place that their staff are highly trained (and classy!).✨✨

Though their food are a bit pricey, and taste was just okay. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t that superb as I was expecting. (Area of improvement here) I know this place can be better! ❤️👏🏻

We were checked in at Edsa Shang and as per usual, hubby and I grew hungry late at night so we decided to explore the vicinity for a place to eat. There were so few walking distance places that were open but we chanced upon Wobbly Pan on our quest.

Food was really good but prices were a bit high since servings were not too big. Quality and taste though were good so we’d still want to go back given the chance.

Everything was superb and so is the streak! Staff sure knows how to serve. Can't wait to come back! I highly recommend to try this place out.

The ambiance is pretty good . I usually go here for meetings in the morning. I really have to say that some of the breakfast menu isn't really that appetizing such us the chorizo patatas. It tasted very bland. While the Spanish breakfast is excellent. So mixed feelings overall

This place is really underrated. Our meal in general was wonderful. I consider it to be a close competition with the other high-end Spanish restaurants.

The Salpicao and dessert were just eh but the Paella Valenciana and Callos were great.

I enjoyed the Paella so much that we got another order to-go.

Service and ambiance were a big thumbs up.

Lovely atmosphere to dine especially for a late night dinner. The indoor and outdoor settings are accompanied by dim lighting and soft music. The menu have a range of western and Spanish fusion food.

The food looked appetising when served so we couldn't wait to dig in. There wasn't anything special for the soup as it was mainly broth. On the other hand the pasta and paella was delicious and drench in sauce therefore every bite was packed with flavours, if only the servings was bigger as it was too small to satisfy.

Restaurant business really has shelf life. In the case of Poetry and Prose, they are gone and now replaced by new comer, Wobbly Pan. This establishment mainly serves modern Spanish, and I got to dine here last week.

I had their best seller, Iberian Chicken, a 400-gram thigh chicken meat filled with various spices and white wine. This was savory as expected, and I suggest pairing it with garlic rice. Their staff was kind enough to add more vegetables, at no extra charge.

To fill me up, I ordered warm Pumpkin Soup as well. This bowl seemed like it was pure pumpkin, worth every penny at Php 155.

I also left my credit card here, unfortunately, and they were kind enough to store it for days.

Legit Spanish cuisine in Shang you have to try it! Perfect spot for pre game with friend(s), date night or food trip with family. Their outside sitting is money! its chill and steady any time of the day. Super friendly and accommodating staff I cannot wait to have another salpicao and ice cold cerveza "bbz" here. Takits sa Wobbly!!

Wobbly Pan is your ideal Tapas place in a very relaxed area of the Shangri-la Mall. You got to look for it though as it is not located in a very visible area of the mall. They serve your favorite paellas, gambas, and lengua, just to mention a few. It gives you a pretty decent serving, enough to satisfy your cravings for Spanish dish. They can probably work on adding more butter and oil in the ingredients, as typical Spanish dishes are heavy in butter, but Wobbly Pan has gotten the taste already of your comfort Spanish food.

The ambiance is very relaxed and it gives you a rustic Tapas place feel. Good for a few glasses of wine after work or even for a good family time meal. Service is very commendable. Will drop by this place again for another round of Spanish feel.

Went here for a dinner and meeting with some friends on a Thursday night.

Ordered the Classic Cheeseburger and Tomato Basil Pasta (both tastes good). The best was having the adult shakes for the dessert. Tried the Spiked Apple (sweet but with the right amount of kick).

The service was okay too. The place has good vibe for friends to have fun but relaxing also. Price is quite reasonable.

Perfect for a date or casual hangout with your gang.

Food is delicious and staff are attentive and helpful. Ambience has the right mood for pleasant dining experience and price is reasonable and worthy. Will definitely come back for more.

Wobbly pan is a friendly restaurant in shangrila. Very nice staff and chef. They have a good cocktails. They have also their wobbly bum cocktail which is a good creation from their chef. Its good! and they have also very good food. Salad is best! The way how they grilled the chicken is so right especially with the bread. Spicy Walnuts are okay. Its kinda authentic but its fine. Also gambas is sooo delicious.

I will highly recommend wobbly pan.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Looking forward to try their other food on my next visit. 😬😊
