Well, if you're a Filipino, its not a surprise if you'll not enjoy the food here. Plus, you won't fill full. But for our bosses, who are expats, they just loved the food. Maybe its our tastebuds. The ambiance is great though. It's really a good place for a sophisticated date. For those who would like to try it here,... More

But in the meantime the ambiance, service and linen quality are fantastic. The best place to have a romantic date. But for... More

Its always a pleasure to find a restaurant that doesnt just exceed expectations but sets new standards. Not on just one occasion but on consequetive visits. Small and intimate setting with excellent staff and a menu designed by expat Colin (not sure of last name). Attention to detail in my steak...served on a bed of baby beans with articoke roots...

A nice cozy restaurant with intimate setting where the guests are not placed too close to each other. They have a set 5 course dinner menu with accompanying wines - great value for money. After dinner they have a nice selection of liqueur incl. my favorite Highland Park single malt whisky.

The place is small but perfect for intimate gatherings. Simple and cozy, you feel right at home once settled in. Food is delicious and served fast. I recommend the desserts as they have a good selection to choose from.

I did a search on the web for good eats in Manila. I chose Sala as it won some Best Continental Cuisine award. I was totally disappointed by the taste and execution of the dishes. I asked the server to give me recommendation on signature dishes and he advised me to take the twice baked soufflé with prawns, feta and... More

My husband and I always goes to Sala for our once a month date nights. We love the consistency of getting good food. Yes, it's pricey for Manila, but the quality is worth it. Good for dates, business dinners, luncheons. Small intimate, 'exclusive', fine dining at its best. The owner Scottish chef Mr.Colin Mackay has other 2 restaurants in Makati-... More

The meal that we had at Sala was one to remember. The service, and decor exuded an air of high society dining, and the meal was no different. Truffle ravioli and the lamb dish were impeccably cooked and presented by our cordial, attentive waiter. Though the prices are high here, you certainly get what you pay for.
