Cebu for foodies

Best restaurants

Cebu eats late and eats broadly. The list below is 12 addresses that hold up on a normal Tuesday, not a curated food-tour Saturday, and they are grouped for a visitor who wants to eat like the city eats: Filipino kitchens that cook regional food without apology, a handful of Japanese, Chinese and Indian rooms the city has adopted, and one 24-hour recreation center that will feed you at 04:00 when nothing else will. Most sit inside the 6000 postal area of Cebu City proper, one is up in Consolacion at 6001, and the price of admission is a taxi fare, not a reservation. The rule for this list was simple. Every claim you read here traces to a mapped record with a phone number that rings; the opinions are ours, the coordinates are not. Cebu rewards the visitor who eats where the office crowd eats at 12:30 and where the tricycle drivers eat at 21:00, and the addresses below are ordered so you can do both in a week.
