[2025 Manila Restaurant] Travel Guide for Ilustrado Restaurant (Updated Jun)

#manila #philippines #foodie #discoverasia #filipinocuisine Dining at Illustrado in Intramuros was an unforgettable experience. The warm, welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and beautiful decor—both inside and out—made it feel like a special occasion. Here’s what we loved: • Sopa de Ajo with Chorizo and Vegetables: A hearty and flavorful starter that warmed us up. • Vegetable Kare-Kare: A rich and creamy peanut stew with fresh vegetables, served with bagoong (shrimp paste). • Beef Adobo: A tangy and tender stew that perfectly balanced bold flavors. • Crispy Pork Head: A recommended specialty—crispy, savory, and utterly delicious. • Halo-Halo: The perfect dessert to end the meal—a colorful mix of shaved ice, sweet beans, and fruits. If you’re in Manila, don’t miss Illustrado. It’s the perfect spot for delicious Filipino food in a charming, historic setting. 📍 Address: 744 Calle Real, Intramuros, Manila

"Ilustrado Restaurant" located in the Cathedral District of Manila is a Spanish restaurant with a courtyard. It has excellent service, a comfortable and beautiful environment, and a palace feel. The cuisine is mainly Filipino and Spanish, and the most impressive ones are stewed beef tongue, Spanish risotto and Caesar salad. The food is a bit slow to come out, so it's suitable for walking here to rest and eat after visiting the church.
