I always order Lamb chop here, it's not cheap but it's a must. There's usually an occasion here every Sunday, so it might be hard to get a table.

Generally, I enjoyed my meal here tonight. We were a huge group so we reserved five big tables. We had a set menu comprising of sweet corn soup, sweet and sour pork, yang chow fried rice, birthday noodles, beef with broccoli, roast chicken, steamed suahe and almond jelly for dessert. Overall satisfied with all the food but what stood out for me was their sweet and sour pork. This dish is one of my favorite food in the world and I even had a quest for the best sweet and sour pork. Uno's version certainly made it to my list, that's how good it was. Thinly cut pork made it crunchier and tastier as it was able to absorb the sauce well. Will definitely be back for this :)

*Ordered here through grab so this review is solely based on their food*

We got Hakaw, Steamed Pork Siomai, Fried Spring Roll, Steamed Asado Siopao, and Lemon Chicken.
Since i wasn't able to feel the ambiance of the place, i wasn't sure what to expect from their food.

🍤 Their hakaw was big and tasted reeeaaally juicy! U could feel the burst of juicy shrimp every bite.

🍖 Steamed pork siomai was meh.

🥙 Fried spring roll had chicken strips instead of the usual ground meat, which i liked. It was tasty even without the sauce!

🍖 Steamed asado siopao was so-so.

🍋 Lemon chicken was delightful!!! It was SO good that i could finish an entire serving by myself! I also liked that they separated the lemon sauce and the chicken when they delivered it.

Downside was they didn't include utensils with our order. 😂 But i'd still order food from here anyway!

Food - 5/5
Ambience - 5/5
Price - 5/5

I suggest ordering Yang chow fried rice, sweet and sour pork, cold cuts, cooked shrimp and a few orders of dimsum. The food was delicious. Price of our food was around P1,700 no service charge. Good place to eat with your family and relatives.

Since a friend mentioned this place, and even we're just a 5mins ride away, we finally got the chance to have our lunch here - after 2 years (we are new to the neighborhood, and still we come and go to Manila.)

When we entered, a smell greeted us at the entrance door. It came from the water of the aquariums that dripped over the floor. I think they don't mind the smell, or maybe they're just waiting for the smell of the food to over power it later.

We ordered:
Hot prawn and chicken salad
Elephant clam
Lemon chicken
Seafood pancit canton
Yang chow fried rice

When the food arrive. Yup, it is true. The delicious smell of the food really did overpower the stench. So we forgot all about the smell.

The food is very good. Generous serving in each order. We were 3 adults and 3 pesky kids. We ordered everything small. Still we all ended up very full. And it is good that the kids stop monkeying around. We even have leftovers for takeout then.

Before paying our bill. The waiter served us a big bowl of almond jelly dessert - FREE.

We're very satisfied with the food and the accomodation. We will be back soon enough.

50% Off on all Dimsum and Noodle Soup? I SAY YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
I blame pms for all of these recent cravings. 👅
Uno Seafood located in Escolta is one of the oldest Chinese restaurants operating in Binondo. It's a must visit for authentic chinese cuisine if you're touring around the area. Most family events and gatherings on the Chinese side of our family are usually celebrated here that's why I'm already familiar with their menu. Lol. This is one of the cheapest and most affordable Chinese restaurants I know, this is also a good place for family reunions cause they have private rooms on the 2nd floor which can be reserved.

Did you know that they offer 50% off on their dimsum on weekends and weekdays from 9pm onwards? Super sulit!
The original rate of their dimsum starts at P80 per order and we only paid P40 to P50 per meal. Sulit siya pagmarami kayo. I can't believe we were 5 and we only paid P150 each for all the dimsum we ordered, busog na busog na kami.

Aside from that, they also offer 50% off on their noodles soup like beef noodles, wanton noodles etc. The serving is really big, super sulit siya and can be good for 2 people already!

Aside from the dimsum, I was the only one who ordered desserts. Ang tinde ng cravings ko, di pa ako nabusog. Please don't judge me haha ✌️
🍋 Mango Sago P50
🥜 Peanut Balls P18 each x3
Ang sarap 👏 Classic chinese resto dessert! Super full and super happy akong umuwi. Masaya rin yung tiyan ko sa kabusugan, hindi na siya naging flat. 😐

If you are of chinoy you would definitely be familiar with this place as one of the places for events. Food here is good and serving is pretty decent, the servers are nice but new ones tend to be a little bit clumsy. The place is a bit old already and renovations may be needed.

We ordered wet seafood hofan, calamari and sweet sour pork. The food was ok for a chinese restaurant considering its price and serving size. I would say that the price is very budget friendly since they have big servings and the taste of the food is also very authentic, not mediocre.

One of the best tasting chinese food in the area of binondo.

I usually order the usual chinese food - beef with brocolli and sweet and sour fish. They are both delicious and serving is also generous. The yang chow is also delicous.

Parking is quite limited but they have guys who could assist you with the parking. Would come back here definitely.

Staff are friendly and accommodating, although this place usually gets packed easily so expect that they would be busy from time to time. But service is quite fast.

The best dishes that are to be tried are the tofu and the misua. Which is their specialty compare to other restaurants that didn't offer it. You can also ask for a free almond jelly as your desert.

We find Chinese food, our comfort food. From our grandfather to our father, we loved dining in Chinese Restaurants and this is one of the best for me. Best seafood restaurant, live and fresh. And with their meat menu, very enticing.

They have excellent quality food! The dimsum are served steaming hot and taste great with no frills. I can't choose between the Hakaw and Steamed Pork Siomai so I'll just have them both together regularly. Of all the dishes I've tried here so far, none need further improvement.

Baked Uno Seafood Chicken Pie is something to look for and miss after awhile. Even when eaten at room temperature as a leftover, it still tastes really good!

A special dish with chicken, taro, spinach, and oyster sauce is pretty delicious as well. It's off the menu but it's so good that it should be listed.

This restaurant is part of the cruise that I joined last week. Ambiance is of course typical Chinese Restaurant.The food served to us was the special menu created by the people behind the cruise.The menu includes steamed fish, steamed suahe, almond fruit cocktail, uno assorted cold cuts, lumpiang shanghai, tofu, seafood spinach soup, masachi and pork stewed with bread.
The cold cuts includes  soy chicken, roasted pork, century egg and crunch seaweeds.  I love the century egg. It has the sweetness with a bit of saltiness coming from the yolk the other layer tastes and has a texture of gelatin. The seaweeds is like  glass pasta but it is a bit hard to bite. The chicken was tender and it almost fall out the bone and a  bit sweet. 
The lumpiang shanghai  is crispy on the outside  and the inside for me tastes like squid balls. The sauce of the latter makes is more flavorful.

Tofu is crunchy on the outside with soft and fluffy inside. The inside of the tofu tastes so much of taho.

The steamed fish is soft and so juicy. perfectly marinated.

I love the pork stewed with bread. It is like asado siopao the diffence is you have to put the pork stewed on the bread. The pork is so tender  and has the right sweetness.

We finished with masachi, it is like butchi but instead of a hard shell it is soft all throughout and tastes like  soft bibinka.

Classic authentic chinese food at very reasonable price. Dimsum late night promo discount for late night munch. Fresh seafood like shrimp crab eel carp clams in fish ponds for selection. Constantly bustling with guest reservation suggested on dinners and weekends. Excellent venue for parties. Service is fast. Must try stuffed eight treasure chicken, sour spicy soup, yang chow fried rice, pork stewed with bread.

Fantastic food, great service - the staff is really polite, warm and friendly and they all make good recommendations.

There are wide selections of food, good value for your money. My favorite dishes include the Fried Chicken, Siomai, Birthday Noodles, and their special Chicken Pie. Don’t forget to try their XO sauce too.

Great Restaurant will definitely be one of my go-to Lunch spots when in Manila. I look forward to trying their dinner food.

I truly recommend this restaurant.

Been here several times. One of the best suahes I've ever tastes! Their Pineapple Fried Rice, Yang Chow Fried Rice, Three Cupped Chicken, and White Chicken are also delicious. They also offer dimsums. Servers are friendly :) They also give free dessert, specifically almond jelly, which I look forward to every after meal. Ambiance is 4/5.  However, they get choosy with delivery orders, even though the location is just less than a 10 minute walk.

My favorite dishes include the Fried Oysters in XO Sauce, Spare Ribs with Salt & Pepper, Birthday Misua, and their special Chicken Pie. Recommended for bigger groups of 6 or more. Service is okay, staff are friendly. The place is not as new, but the reasonable prices given great-tasting food compensates for it. Will come back here for my birthday celebration!

I am a Chinese food buff and I'll go anywhere just to sample authentic Chinese cuisine. Uno Seafood Wharf did not disappoint me since I loved everything that we ordered from the soup, rice, noodles and the main dishes. I've only been here twice and given the chance I will come back again to enjoy their succulent entrees.

I have eaten here 4 times already and so far so good! well at least the food!

The place is setup like a typical old school chinese restaurant and not really maintained very well. The service is not bad but nothing special. The food however makes up for both deficiencies!

The food is excellent and priced very nicely below high-end chinese restaurants but with taste and quality that can match! Fresh seafood is readily available in their aquariums. You can even choose and weigh the seafood on the spot as they take the seafood from the aquariums! 

One time I ordered steamed crab and got a decent sized one (shell) but the meat inside the claws were very small! I complained and got a replacement. We weren't regulars there so they might have been trying to cheat us a bit but I did eventually get the order replaced after a short argument.

3/11/16: we went here for quick lunch after a meeting there at manila. we ordered dimsum from the cart and one soup since we were in a rush.

Uno seafood wharf is an authentic Chinese restaurant that serves typical Chinese ala carte, dimsum, and a great and inexpensive venue for parties and celebrations. What I like about this restaurant is that they also try to innovate dishes so that there something new to look forward to each visit. They are known for their fresh seafoods and one other thing, Chicken Pie.

Their Chicken Pie is priced at P520.00 and it is actually value for money. It is filling and meant for sharing. The creaminess of the filling and the oh-so yummy crust is a must-order.

They also have discounted dimsum promo everyday starting 9pm. This is a steal as their dimsum are freshly made and pushed around a traditional dimsum cart for you to choose.

My recent staples are: sizzling pork tenderloin chinese style, seafood hotpot with cheese, soy milk with mushrooms (a new discovery...it looks like tofu but its soft like milk), chicken pie, steamed suahe, pan-fried spinach pie (a new discovery as well), chicken asparagus, and the list really goes on and on.

For short snacks, I like their dimsum and congee.

By the way, did you know that you can ask for free dessert (almond jelly) everytime you dine in? That saves you money for some sweet cravings unless you want something else.

Also, did you know that if you don't really need a receipt, you can ask for a 10% discount. (Well they say its for approval, but we always get it).

Uno has been around for more than a decade. The place needs refurbishment if it wants to get more bookings for parties. The price range of the lauriat sets here are much lower compared with other Chinese restaurants. Overall, the dishes here are great. I love the oyster cake, sizzling tofu stuffed with shrimp and steamed suahe here.

another one of the finest. try their salt and pepper oyster with xo sauce. and you' ll never remember anything else. seaweed with century egg at it's best-marinated with just the right amount of spices and cut just thick enough it's thin. -trust me on this. you'll want to eat this like everytime. and will be your standard of evey seaweed salad from other restos. stir fried misua tastes like what grama used to make. and they're always jam packed so come by early whether lunch or dinner.

We went to this restaurant for a family event. The cold cuts were served first, followed by the steamed suahe which were pretty good as long as they were eaten while hot. We also had the abalone shell chicken soup with bamboo pitch which was just okay.

The steamed lapu-lapu wasn’t soft and required a little more chewing time because of its texture. But the soy sauce greatly improved the dish and made it more tolerable. The steamed crabs were served next and it took the servers a while to give us a cracker. Sadly, the crabs were dry and not as tasty as expected. The braised noodles were also bland so I only ate a little.

Next came the dessert and I got quite excited when I saw that dessert was mango tapioca! After just one spoonful, I decided that it was worst I’ve tasted. It had very few tapioca, and had no mango bits. The mango taste was barely present because so much ice had melted and got mixed with the dessert.  Fortunately they served another dessert, the glutinous rice balls with shredded coconut, which were pretty good and had just the right sweetness.

There was a birthday party in the restaurant at the time of our visit and only a divider was placed to separate the party from the rest of the tables. Even with the divider, we could hear what was going on at the party and the entire restaurant even heard the ‘happy birthday’ song which was sang three separate times. It was alright at first but it became a bit annoying come the second and third times. The servers were also a bit slow in providing the food and necessary utensils.

This gets my vote for one of the best Chinese restaurants in Binondo. I found that their roast pigeon is better than the top-notch restos in Greenhills. And cheaper, too. Their seafood (crabs and shrimp) were quite alright too.

It was my first time to eat here and they didn't disappoint me at all! I love how the staffs greet you warmly as you enter their restaurant and how fast their service is. The food was okay but I didn't get the chance to try out their seafoods, they said it was the best but I was in a hurry. Hoping to try it out someday!

Impromptu Dinner on a Friday night. It was my first time to dine at Uno Seafood Wharf Place. When we got there at around 7PM the place was packed. We had to wait for our table. We ordered the following:

Fried Rice wrapped in Gabi Leaves
Chicken Pot Pie
Fried Oysters
Peppered Pork Chops
Crispy Sea Lobster

The food was delicious, I was blown away by the freshness of the oysters and the chicken pot pie from crust to filling.

There will definitely be a return trip and next time will explore more on the seafood menu that this place has to offer.

Uno Seafood Wharf Palace really deserves the "Seafood" tag in its name because they really provide fresh and high-quality seafood dishes such as the Lapu-Lapu, Aballone, Shrimps, Crabs and more! However, freshness alone would not satisfy a foodie's adventurous palate - it needs flavors! Having said this, there are couples of dishes we had that seemed to be relatively bland. Hence, I think Uno Seafood Wharf Palace can still improve its sauce department.

Overall, I found this place worthy of your visit!

Since I cannot download all the picture I'll be posting their best seller the Chicken Pot pie. The crust was a bit flaky and sweet while the filling was super creamy. Since it was suppose to be a party after tasting this dish many guest immediately make a take out order for this which cost at around P560
