Chotto Matte Philippines

This is a nice ambient izakaya style bar in bgc. We really liked the area it’s in and it doesn’t get a lot of traffic compared to other parts of the city so you can expect the environment to be quite chill. A couple of things to note with Chotto Matte, the food is good but it can be better. We feel that they already covered a lot of the fundamentals but there’s still room for improvement. For example, the tempura donburi was really good however I wish that the sauce wasn’t too much on the bowl which just overpowered the rest of the dish. The flavors were on point but if the sauce wasn’t too generous, then it would’ve been perfect. I’d like to stress that this is just from our experience and we don’t want to take anything away from the owners, it’s a really nice bar and we’d like to come back again.

Quite a popular place and the food is pretty decent. Price point wise is average and you don't expect any very cheap food. Drinks selection are good and the edamame is definitely a must order! Overall a decent place to hangout with your colleagues after a long day of work.

Great cocktails and Japanese izakaya dishes Their Dj nights are fun. Good for all and they have a Saboten menu! My favorites are the highball choices and the dragon roll

I am so disappointed with both the staff & food. Our seafood yakisoba was overcooked & burnt under. Moreover, the pork katsudon was underseasoned. It took 40 minutes for our food to be served only to be dismayed. I talked to the staff and complained about it but she didn’t handle it well. She was just giving excuses instead of saying that they’ll do something to fix it. Will probably think about coming back here

Had a team dinner at this place. The second picture was my order Surf and Turf (750 php) in actual. It looked appetizing but the taste is just so-so. The steak on this order is too gamey. It's just not worth it for the price. Their customer service wasn't that great either.
