The food was great! though a little pricey. We were supposed to order on their chiller in the dining area but the cooking fee was 250 per pack. So we ended up ordering from their menu. They should extend their operating hours until 12 midnight; so there's no longer a need to transfer from one place to another.
The sausage is well prepared, excellent and beyond comparable. I am just amazed on how they create such a perfect piece of meat..
♡ bacon slabs - Highly recommended
❤ sausage platter - Everything on the plate is so tasty. (Tasty is not even a word to describe how perfect their sausage was.)
Sauerkraut - Very authentic i tasted in all restaurant and blends well on meat.
I tasted mostly of their menu, but it's for you to experienced. Highly recommended.
One of our favorite restaurant, we love almost all their food. Our comfort food so far are their ribs, bacon bits pizza, seafood chowder, callos, lamb curry and the citrus delight. A must visit restaurant
This is one of our favorite restaurants in BGC. Their dishes are just so yummy! Our favorites there are their Pizza's and pasta. Ordered the Black Truffle with Mushroom pasta and Margarhita Pizza😍Their tapa and bacon slab are good too. Worth coming back for.
Delicious dishes, enough servings, and prompt service!! We went here on a weekday lunch and everything was fine: food, service, ambiance. Everything tastes legit.👌
One of my go-to-restaurants! I love their food, most especially the Bacon Slab and Cheese Platter (not in photo, forgot to take a pic). They also serve coffee from Epic Coffee (same as the one in Kapitolyo)!
The place is very cozy. They showcase a small curing room by the entrance. And on the other side, there’s a great selection of wine. It’s a great place to have catch-ups with friends. They have a “private” room if you want to make the gathering more intimate.
Service was fast. Servers were accommodating and attentive.
Dunno why, but this is my go-to restaurant for comfort food! Love the salpicao, sausage platter, callos and truffle pasta. Let's not forget the great selection of wines.
🐽 Food: We ordered chef’s salad, bacon slab, truffle oil with mushroom pasta, 4 cheese pizza, gambas and sausages. Everything was delicious and good for sharing! We really enjoyed our visit!
🍴Ambiance: Casual and comfortable place. You can dine in with friends or go here for a date.
👫 Service: Service was quick and servers were accommodating.
💸 Price: Friendly budget especially if you’re a big group.
Quite good selection of meat and cheese. Go get the sausage and cheese platter so you can try 3 kinds of sausage with 3 kinds of cheese.
They have great rice plates as well, specially thr corned beef, bacon sets.
It's been a while since the last to me we dined at Poco Deli. Since it's the first resto we saw while looking for Christmas Day dinner, we decided to bite into it. Food for 4 would be: sausage platter, two orders of truffle pasta (mushroom and seafood) and appetizing shrimp gambas, capping it with delicious Black Out Choco cake. Thank you Lord for this day!
We ordered this platter with bacon, sausages and ribs. Everything tasted really good. We just added two orders of rice and a mashed potato. We left the restaurant feeling happy with the food we ate.
Such an underrated restau here in high street! This place is such a gem. The interiors were so pretty. The curing room looked so cool.
I enjoyed the sausage platter as well. I prefer their white wine than red wine.
I love dining in small but cozy restos and this is definitely one of them! Also loved that they cater to my keto needs :)
My fave is the Bacon strips and my kids love their thin crust heart-shaped pizza! And how can you not love the wine-selection :)
Met up with college friends last week . Its been a while since we last saw each other.
So nice to catch up over orders of cheese and charcuterie with sausages on the side. So good!

I had their cold cuts and cheese platter and pasta. Both were good sized portions and tasted beautiful... 😊 their house wine by the glass is expensive though...
This restaurant is a source of my comfort foods, this could be yours too. The serving is ample enough for two people to share, but I'd rather not share this goodness with anyone.
My 3.5 rating is for their bacon only. It's totally different from the regular bacon served in buffets or sold in supermarkets. Normally, I stay away from bacon as it's more fats than lean meat and way too salty but Poco Deli's is a different version. It's tasty, well seasoned even its fats are delicious! First time I eat meat without slicing off the fat part.
We ordered the carnivore sampler and sausage platter. As far as my order is concerned, except for the mouthwatering bacon slab, I find nothing out of ordinary in their sausages. I never liked my food oily and both platters were drenched in oil. I expect their sausage skin to burst or crunch when I bite into it but nope, just like regular hotdogs; tastewise, a small notch better than supermarket franks. BBQ ribs are more bones than meat, we just licked off the flavorful flimsy portion of meat stucked on the bones, honestly nothing to chew there! Maybe I was expecting too much from all the good reviews here, frankly I think this deli is kind of overrated. But I do like their ambience, very cozy and classy and service is good.
It’s located at a good area, not too crowded. The food is great, especially the pasta and pizza. I recommend the truffle pasta and the four cheese pizza. They also have a variety of wine options.
Food: I love their bacon. No bacon will ever taste the same again after you try it. It was made from scratch, spiced and then smoked, just like all their other deli meats. However, just because their sausages were made from scratch, does not imply that its the best out there. It passes my quality standards for sausages and the variety of deli meats they have is definitely a reason for me to come back. Have not even tried a fifth of what they were offering.
Ambiance: Its in between a good date place and a tapas place to celebrate with your friends and drink wine. Definitely will come back to try as a date place.
Price: If you order their sausages, the servings relative to price is not justifiable IMO. Big mistake if you order the common sausages, like schublig, franks and Hungarians as there are more affordable equivalently good options out there. Make sure to get the rare specialty sausages you cant get anywhere else when ordering a platter.
Service: Their service was excellent, and the food was served in under 5 minutes. Servers were courteous.
Love a good deli, but they're usually over priced or quality is meh. But not Poco Deli. Price point is superb versus the quality of the dish they provide. Spanish Callos - to die for. Never had a bad time in Poco Deli.
I came here once with a friend. Obviously we ordered half of their Bacon Slab and Smoked BBQ Ribs cause we're on a budget (student probs). So going on with the service and the portion of the food. It has a nice timber work in its interior. When you come inside it almost feel like you know what you're paying. It is also a good place for meetings, romantic dates, or catching up with your friends. Then the FOOD. I wasn't expecting that much because I have some bad experiences when eating in places like this one, good interior, food, and etc. Most of the time, I am not satisfied with the food I'm eating and the amount that I am paying. So the waiter took our order, we waited, then (glorious sound). Almost break into tears with the food that I'm seeing worth 450PHP. Hands down, you got my heart and money. We were surprised actually, it's like we're winning in life. My foodie soul embrace your work. Good job Poco Deli, know I am craving for more. About their location, it wasn't really that hard to find. It was a 10 minute walk (I'm not really sure) from Market-Market to there. Would love to come back here soon and try other dishes that they have to offer. My meatlover heart goes to you Poco Deli.
Naalala ko nung limang taong gulang pa ako: inosente, makulit, malikot, matakaw. Madalas ako dalhan ng lola o ng lolo ko ng cake na galing sa panaderya sa may bayan. Tapos kakainin ko sya ng buong galak na para bang hihinto ang mundo sa bawat kagat.
Ngayon, ibibigay ko lahat para lang maging limang taong gulang ulit: masaya at walang dinaramdam. Kahit isang araw lang. Pero, wala eh. Kahit anong hiling natin, patuloy na iikot at iikot ang mundo.
Pero, sa kabila ng lahat, may cake pa naman. Tulad nitong Blackout Chocolate Cake ng Poco Deli. Siksik ang tsokolate, naglalambing ang tamis, nag-aanyaya ang bango ng pinagsama-samang sangkap tulad ng gatas, banilya, tsokolate, mantikilya, ngiti, galak, at pagmamahal.
Hindi man ako maging limang taong gulang ulit kahit isang araw lang, may cake naman tulad nito na magpapaalala na minsan rin akong naging napakasaya, pare.
At marahil, magiging masaya ulit.
BEST. BACON. PLACE. I. HAVE. BEEN. TO.
Hands down for this restaurant. I don't even care how pricey it is, it's just that delicious. I lost count how many times me and my coworkers ate here, probably more than 10. Whenever my friends come to visit me in BGC, this is the place I recommend and will still recommend. Love how this is just walking distance from our office building!
Serving time is slow but you know it's worth it anyway because it needs to be perfect. Staff are attentive, the ambience is nice and the place is cold due to their AC, which I love! There are not many seats though, particularly when you go during peak hours. I suggest you come before 11am or after 1pm.
WILL ALWAYS GO BACK TO ORDER!
I was walking a long side of BGC... and was searching for great dines over breakfast after going to the gym nearby and, I remember this place was reccomdended.. Superb food and beverage... Money and Time is worth it!!!
Nothing is better than sharing wine, tapas, and good cheers with your friends at Poco Deli. Everything they serve is top notch here with all the right notes of smokiness, curing, or roasting. It's hard to find anything that won't be easily made into a favorite here. Service and ambiance is great.
Good thing the place is not full when we visited, I was able to try their ribs and sausages. What I really love about the food is they are flavorful and tender, I enjoyed everything that we ordered, the price is justifiable because they really serve quality food, the staffs are also approachable.
I like this dish but I forgot the name.
It’s quiet and nice ambience. A great spot to have a quick lunch and enjoy it to the fullest. I will definitely will come back.
Real tender meat on my Irish stew (Theres a weird taste that I kept running after at the end of each bite. Could be the after taste of the stout). Too bad there’s not enough sauce (or I couldn’t simply hav enough in one serving) to flavor the strips of bread that came with the sausage platter.
The sausage platter only had 1 big kielbasa and four small (finger-sized) sausages (nurmberger, bratwurst).
The bacon steak is real good (I mean, its bacon!).
All in all, its quite pricey, but they make it reasonable with their claimed quality and also good service.
They offer a wide selection of wines by the bottle and select cheeses.
Php500-700.
Fun place in BGC to try out sausages with craft beer and sweet endings with excellent homemade ice cream!
The sausage platter was good. Shared it among 3 of us. Chicken sausage was good as was the bratwurst. Wagyu sausage wasn't that good. Also got the vegetarian pizza which was excellent. The Salpicao also is very good.
Washed this down with beers - couple of Baguio Craft Beers with a Floris Chocolat beer and Crabbies@ Raspberry Beer. Switched to a lovely Lambrusco Amabile wine later. It's slightly sweet and semi-sparkling or frizzante.
Homemade ice cream is a hit. We tried Rum Raisin and Pistachio and both were good
They have excellent service and a wide selection of sausages, cheeses and other dishes on their menu. Try their chicken sausage, it's worth it! It's juicy, and very tasty. However, the other dishes are a bit pricey.
Food was outstanding! We ordered the Carnivore to share with truffle chips. Meats and sausage were delicious, Sauer kraut yummo and truffle chips moreish. Check them out!
Servings are generous. The pasta, sandwiches, rice meals and sausage platter are great! The blackout cake is the bomb and a must-try. Parking in Kapitolyo isn't a breeze, but their food is worth the effort of looking for parking. :)
We like the tapa with 2 sunny side up egg and iced tea in Poco Deli. The serving is actually good for 2 persons. Its worth the price. We will definetely come back again eventhough we have been there for 4 times now.
Good good and services ... Favorite restaurant in makati for sausage and comfort food ... The services is very professional specially the senior waiter
Easy to miss as this branch is tucked behind ROX in BGC. But the location is something that works for patrons who favor a quiet conversation with a significant other or friends. They close at midnight, perfect for a late night dinner or a night cap.
What better way to celebrate the end of the week other than a glass of red at Poco Deli.
Friday Night is Wine Night! It is a known fact that i love wine so when my homie asked if we can hang at Poco Deli, i said Yassss!
This is my first time to visit the BGC Branch. The interior is the same as the Ayala Triangle Branch. Wood is predominant and the overall vibe of the place is a log cabin meets Irish pub.
Anyway, we got a bottle of red paired with some cold cuts and cheese platter
The platter is comprised of the following:
| Grana Padano
| Manchego
| Gorgonzola
| Prisciutto di Parma
| Salami Milano
| Napoli Picante
Lambrusco is the name of both a red wine grape and an Italian wine made principally from the grape. The grapes and the wine originate from four zones in Emilia-Romagna and one in Lombardy, principally around the central provinces of Modena, Parma, Reggio nell'Emilia, and Mantua. It is noted for high acidity and berry flavors.
According to the world wide web, Lambrusco wine is best paired with cold cuts and cheese.
Now i know why i weally like manchego with my glass of red. The berry notes work well with hard cheese.
I might get a bottle or two with some cheese on my next trip to ze deli.
Cheers!
It is a great place to gather with friends and relatives. Their service is satisfying. Also, it's worth your money because of the quantity and quality of their dishes. Will definitely recommend this to every meatlovers out there.
Had dinner with friends here on a weekend. Relaxed interior and spacious, looks like a food hall. We started with the prawn and apple salad, so delish even my guy friends loved it. Had a margherita pizza and quattro carne, chili seafood pasta and truffle & oil seafood. Generous servings and great flavors. Loved the wine and cheese platters as well.
Their truffle pasta is just so good! I also love their salpicao and their sausage platter! The atmosphere is kinda like a Tita's of Manila feels. So if you want a catch up over wine, this is one of the best places to hang out!
Meat haven, everyone.
The ambiance was divine! Wine bottles and deli were. strewn in nice patterns and displayed all around the area. Ordered P280 bacon slab which was honestly too much for my liking so I ended up not finishing it. It was flavorful, yes, but the fatty part was just overdoing it.
Their homemade ice cream vanilla bean was honestly bland and very pricey. Overall, prices were steep but relatively aligned with what they offer.
Poco Deli is a great place to go if you just want a simple restaurant with good food. It can get full on Friday nights though. The seating isn't great as it's rather crowded but the staff is friendly.
So glad that we already have a branch here at the fort. As always, the bacon slabs are lovely. The best chocolate cakes and gorgonzola and fig ice cream. Love their wines too!!!
I love that the resto that serves one of the best steak sandwiches opened up at the Fort! Same quality and better location. So the first order of business when I went there was of course order US beef steak sandwich topped with mozzarella cheese!

I first tried Poco Deli four years ago at their branch in Kapitolyo. Back then, I was an amateur foodie, and found it extremely amazing. Now that they opened a new branch in BGC, I am very pleased that the food and the price did not change, still of the same quality and portion despite the posh BGC location - plus the ambience improved. The space is a lot bigger, and the industrial interiors are better. They even have a private room with a long table that can accommodate probably at least 10 guests.
For dinner, we had the following:
•Starters
1. Gambas al ajillo - I was impressed at the size of each shrimp. Compared to other restaurants I tried, this boasts of huge pieces of shrimp. As per the flavour, it was average
2. Chorizo - Impeccable tapas that is now my gold standard for chorizo. I must say it was almost the same as the chorizo in the best retaurant in the Philippines, Antonio's (Tagaytay). Hence the need to take-away five raw chorizo rolls off their deli. Also, it was very affordable!
3. Quattro formaggi pizza - My gold standard for four cheese pizza is the one from Two Seasons Resort. This has almost the same physical appearance and aroma as the one from Two Season's - the thin crust, the melted pesto cheese in the middle - except that it lacked the thin slice of Manchego in the middle of each slice. Otherwise it was good.
4. Truffle fries - thick slices of potato drenched in truffle oil. Good buy.
•Mains
1. Spanish callos - a medley of pancetta, chorizo and beef tripes, served with white rice topped with little bits of bacon on top. Nothing special.
2. Kielbasa sandwich - A hefty piece of sausage in between a nice sesame sausage bun, smothered in mustard and mayo, served with natural crispy sweet potato chips
3. Pork ribs - uber tender half/slab ribs oozing with very rich and flavourful taste. Served with bacon rice.
4. Bacon slab (from the charcuterie) - thick slices of bacon steak that resembles the taste of the infamous Exelente ham. Served with two sunny side up eggs, and a cup of rice.
•Dessert
1. Black out chocolate cake - Still the chocolate cake to beat. Nothing is creamier and richer than Poco Deli's black out cake. This is definitely a must try - best with tea or coffee
•Drinks
1. Citrus delight- soda water infused with citrus fruits, served in a caraffe. You may opt to ask for honey on the side to add a little kick to this drink
2. Home brewed Iced tea - Brewed red iced tea served in a pilsner glass.
3. Harry & Son's janapese green tea - nothing extraordinary
4. Cafe americano - freshly brewed coffee that is usually blended in double shots.
I had a look on their cellars but the selection of wines was quite limited to blancs, merlots, chardonnay, and bubbly. Average price range of PHP1,000 a bottle. They dont have Rosé nor Prosecco.
Allow me to shout out a special mention to our gracious server, Mavic. She is fantastic. Very polite, efficient, and attentive. She must have been trained very well. Good job, Mavic!
Overall I'd give this place a 4 out of 5. There's no reason not to come back!
Although I've seen this restaurant in Kapitolyo a hundred times, it never occurred to me to try it out. I just wasn't craving the kind of food they serve. When we saw this while walking along BGC though, I thought what the heck. The boyfie and I gave it a go. Good heavens, I was missing a lot! Food may be pricey but the quality is superb. We ordered the Bacon Slab (450.00) and Salmon Pasta (380.00). The serving was huuuge. I loved the smokiness of the bacon. The pasta was al dente and the salmon was cooked beautifully. I think we ordered for 3 people. We were too full to move after. The service was quick and our waiter was very attentive. We will go back soon to try their desserts! Good thing it now has a branch in BGC.
The story: Joy and Sonny de Leon, the chef and the charcuterie maker behind Poco Deli. Joy kicked off her prominent culinary career with baking and eventually perfecting her signature dish, the Blackout Chocolate Cake. Sonny, raised on a ranch, learned the process and fundamentals of hand crafting bacon and hams throughout his childhood. Many moons, food trips, adventures, and taste tests later, the couple opened Poco Deli in 2008 – a manifestation of family recipes and their passion for authentic European cuisine. The word “poco” in Italian translates to “little”, as the restaurant’s first branch was just that – a cozy, little deli.
Fast forward eight years later, Poco Deli opens its third branch located at One Parkade in Bonifacio Global City. Even after all the expansions - from Kapitolyo to Ayala Triangle to BGC - Poco Deli remains to be a family brand, but with some additions, because Sonny and Joy’s kids are also doing their part to help out with the business now.
But yeah, more than being a restaurant, Poco Deli is still your little deli - a place where you can come and purchase artisanal sausages and meats to eat at home. During our visit, I actually noticed that a lot of people came in just to pick up items from the delicatessen.
To start, I highly recommend going for either their Sausage and Cheese or the Cold Cuts and Cheese platter, or you know, both.
The Sausage and Cheese (P500 / P750) features their kielbasa, nurnberger, and chicken sausages. For the cheeses, it has gorgonzola, grana padano, and pecorino.
The Cold Cuts and Cheese Platter (P480 / P750) has prosciutto di parma, salami milano, and napoli picante, while its cheeses include grana padano, manchego, and gorgonzola.
But if you’re more about the sausages, then you should order the Sausage Sampler (P500 / P750) which highlights their kielbasa, bratwurst, nurmberger, and chicken sausages!
What’s great about Poco Deli’s artisanal sausages is that they have no preservatives. They are also house-made in small batches, so there’s strict quality control on everything that goes out of the kitchen.
If you’re looking for something heavier, Poco Deli also offers various meats that come with two eggs and rice. Must try: Bacon Slabs, Meat Loaf, Corned Beef Chunks, and Smoked BBQ Ribs! My favorite is the Bacon Slabs!!
Don’t forget to order one of their wines when you visit – they have a wide selection that’s perfect for night outs with the girls or special dates with your significant other.
We’re super happy to be part of Poco Deli’s Bonifacio Global City (BGC) restaurant launch through the invitation of Zomato. We can’t thank Poco Deli enough for the warm accommodation. Anyway, for those of you who still hasn’t heard of Poco Deli, it has been around for quite some time already, eight (8) years to be exact. With its first home in Kapitolyo, their next branch was in Ayala Triangle Makati where Me-An got to try some of their dishes and, currently, Poco Deli has found its way to BGC.
Poco Deli, is a small deli, tucked somewhere in Kapitolyo. 8 years of serving great European sausages that started serving homemade sausages, now find its new home at BGC.
It's a charcuterie and wine deli that lets you buy a bottle of wine, while enjoying artisinal homemade sausages.
We were invited to their media launch and was served with their charcuterie platter, a mixture of 3 kinds of sausages and cheese. French Pork Belly, Smoked Ribs, and other stuffs.
My highlight for the night is their juicy, crisp kielbasa. When the fork just cuts into it, the casing just snaps then juiciness of the meat just seeps out. The French Pork Belly was another meal that I won't forget. Thick cut bacon belly that has been brined, smoked, and cooked like how the process of bacon. It has the right salinity that is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the fat. The ribs are good, slathered with their bbq sauce. I prefer the bacon better. And because its bacon.
Poco Deli just amaze me how they make most of their charcuterie. I know its tedious to make one, but they really make good sausages.

This restaurant never fails to exceed my expectations. From their pioneer restaurant in Kapitolyo to Park Triangle and finally in BGC. Their wide array of entrees with products coming directly from Europe prepared properly to serve you the finest deli cuisine in town. Their Half Slab Bacon Rice, Sausage and cheese platter and even their signature Black Out Chocolate Cake is to die for. So for those fans of this restaurant, finally it has opened in Fort BGC for you to enjoy.
Visted Poco Deli's newest branch today at BGC. Thank you for the owners for the kind welcome and having us in your opening night.
The food is absolutely great. They serve gluten free pork, beef, and sausages. Each dish that they served surprised me.
Also, the owner/chef makes amazing cakes, it is a must try!
The highlight dishes for me:
1. Bacon, it is not the typical bacon that you can get over the counter. The meat is imported and the meat itself has a sweet taste besides the flavor in it.
2. Corned Beef, this dish is a winner. It is not the typical corned beef in a can. It was not flaked and it is just amazing. And it took a lot of time in order to perfectly smoke and flavor the meat.
3. Sausages, again it is not a typical sausage but each and every sausage you get from poco deli are made from imported meat and made by the owner himself.
4. Chocolate Cake (forgot the correct name of the cake) the cake is moist, soft, and full of chocolate. Absolutely great and lovely. *If you are a sweet tooth, you should try this.
5. Blueberry Cheesecake, also great, the graham below the cheesecake is soft, not like some other cheesecake that the graham is hard. I loved it.
The place of poco deli is lovely, simple but elegant.
