Food is superb. It is on par with Balay Dako on Tagaytay but on a cheaper price. Ambiance is good as well. The crew are very nice and approachable.
Filipino dining at it's finest. This place is what my mama would want to go because of the familiar dishes she could order. A balikbayan friend was the one who insisted to dine here because she misses the Filipino dishes a lot, and good thing in Crisostomo it's wish come true.
I was looking forward to dining at Crisostomo again but this time at a different branch and with a longer waiting list. I've been to their Resorts World branch and I enjoyed my experience there. Their laing (Leandro) is one of my favorites and we recently discovered the Manok ng Diablo which everyone on our table liked. Their Calamares ni Tales was perfectly cooked and paired well with the Paella Negra. Lastly, I cannot not have their Tamarind Iced Tea!
I enjoyed my dining experience in this branch as well, however, I do have to agree that it's pricey. The servers and staff were very accommodating and friendly. Ambiance and interiors give the place a nice touch too. It's a great place to bring the family for brunch or lunch but not when you're on a budget.
Did not dissappoint.
Serving time was unusually fast for a casual dining resti, yet food were freshly prepared and really tasty.
I was impressee that our seats did not have a table set up i between the tables (pet peeve). Then i saw the next table with 6 set ups in 2 tables. Not impressive. But I'm letting this slide.
I always enjoy having the occasional pansit or lumpia for merienda. Those are perfect merienda dishes that could either leave you feeling very full or just the right kind of being satisfied. Whatever time you choose to have these merienda treats, Crisostomo might just have something in store for you.
I don't usually drink alcohol but their white sangria is awesome. It is a fruity wine and it doesn't have an after taste. I will come back for a wine o' clock. It's perfect combination with their seafood paella.

If you're looking for a restaurant to bring your loved ones from abroad or foreigners who'd love to try Filipino cuisine, please bring them to Crisostomo. We literally loved everything that we ordered (too bad we weren't able to take photos of each dish). The staff are very friendly too. They even served us extra steamed okra when my brother in law mentioned that it was his favorite.
Their sinigang was perfect (we had bangus and hipon) but the star of our meal was their ginataang kuhol. 😍
You can also buy Florabel bottled goodies from them.
Craving for lutong bahay - filipino food? This is the place. They serve a wide variety of filipino food you will always crave for. I love their adobong pusit and kuhol sa gata. I love how reasonable their price is and serve it with great quantity. You will leave the place — Busog, lusog and sulit! :)
A family-friendly Filipino restaurant where we used to dine with my in-laws. I love the sinigang, kare-kare and the patriotic pseudonyms they give their crew (check out their name tags when you dine here).
The pancit we ordered was soggy and overcooked. The paella negra was really yummy. Tokwa’t baboy is always a fave! The Grill platter was also yummy!
