    First time to dine at Dencio's yesterday and food was surprisingly good! Food like theirs make me want to eat more!My favorite was the sari-saring sinugba, everything was just so good in that platter. Marinated very well and meat was tender. Fish was packed. The only thing I didnt like was the squid. They do their squids really gooey. As for the calamares, it was also like that. But this was better and tastier albeit the batter being a little bit dry. Still enjoyed it! The sisig was also great! Rice and dessert was okay as well. You get the bang for your buck when it comes to dessert! I got a lot of sweet turon for 89 pesos. Overall, dining at Dencio's is a must try, very Filipino. Service was good too! Place was clean and spacious. Pricing is right. For a group of three it was very good considering we ordered a lot that time.

    Me and my wife ate at this branch once before watching a musical at the CCP. They served the food promptly and the service is apt. I like how they have kare-kare gulay (no meat just the , a good add on to the common pork dishes in filipino cuisine (like their popular sisig). I also ate here another time with my photography friends. we had lunch in the middle of shooting the pasinaya festival. an acceptable dencio's branch that could use a little bit of renovation just to freshen things up.

    June 23, 2018 My grandmother passed away June 17, 2018 at the age of 93, today was her cremation and the placing of her ashes at the Chinese temple in Malabon. After the rites ended at 3 pm, Deckard and I decided to not join the rest of the family for dinner cause we wanted to get back to Puppycat who had to be left at home. Our original plan was to try a new restaurant but the rain prevented us from pushing through with that idea. We decided to get dinner closer to home just in case it starts to flood. So here we are again at Dencio's Harbor Square and when I'm sad I always seem to gravitate towards comfort food and there's no other cuisine that eases my heart pains more than Filipino fare. We ordered the following:Crispy Kangkong - this would be a 3. After trying Kanin Club's crispy kangkong all others even the ones I make at home pale in comparison. But still, Dencio's version is still good. For the price and the amount of kangkong we got, I'd say it's still a great deal.Laing - 4, we love their Laing. I've written about this in my previous review below. It seems like since we're dining in now we've got a bigger portion than when Deckard ordered take out the last time.Tortang Talong with Crabmeat - 4, Deckard's order. He finished everything and he wants me to copy it. I tasted some and it's yum. As usual Deckard had his torta with catsup.Inihaw na manok - 5 winner winner chicken dinner! This was unexpectedly good. They cooked this like an Inihaw na liempo and I'd say this dish is somewhat similar to Reyes barbecue or Aristocrat.Sisig - 3.5 this was a bit of a let down cause I wanted my sisig hot and sizzling but what we got was cold already. The taste is spot on though. Maybe it's because they had somebody do the mixing of the egg for us already? But still I didn't notice that the plate was sizzling when the server was attending to our sisig.Overall, I'd still rate this place a 4.I miss my grandmother so much. She was the best home cook I knew. She wasn't perfect but she's close to it. I couldn't help crying as I ate my food, all my memories of her seem to come with every morsel I chewed and tasted. I remember her selflessness, good humor and positive attitude. I love you so much Ama. I'll see you again someday and thank you for taking care of me when my parents could not. I'm letting you go now but I will never forget you.June 9, 2018 Everyone's got the lazy bug becauseof this nice rainy weekend. Nobody wanted to cook so Deckard decided to just go out and buy some food for dinner. We had the following:Fried Tilapia - they filleted the meat off of the bones and cubed them into bite size pieces. Each morsel was then dipped in batter then deep fried. The body was also battered then fried.Laing - oooohhhh I loooove their laing. Creamy, a bit spicy and so tasty.And tada!Crispy Pata! We haven't had this in such a long time and it was so satisfying to eat this at home. Hehehe mainly because we can go caveman on the Pata to get the remaining meat on the bone. You really can't do those things in public. We ate the Pata with Mang Tomas instead of the usual toyomansi vinegar dip. The skin was crackling crispy and the meat was tender. Deckard said it's a good thing he decided to go for the Barkada size, hahahaha there's only 3 of us but we finished the one that's good for 6.As for the rice, I just cooked some long grain while Deckard was out.We loooove Filipino food and Dencio's is one of our go to reliable affordable restos.

    I am really sorry but service was completely unsatisfactory. The wait of more than an hour was longer than the time we ate our meal. Food was not even worth it. If you are going to eat here make sure that you are not that hungry as they will make you hangrier than ever. It took me five times to ask the staff for a simple bowl for soup. Food served was not that hot, making me wonder, why is the service really slow 😢

    Nice food! We ordered Tinapa Rice, Bangus Sisig, Grilled Liempo and Buko Lychee shake. Altho I find the crispy toppings in the sisig strange, we still had a good dinner time here. Will definitely come back!

    Food was great, service was great, overall experience was superb! I wasn't able to take pictures because the food was so mouth watering to see. 🤤 I personally like the fried small shrimps in flour (forgot what they were called). Must try. 👍

    Super sarap ng food lalo na yung sisig, sinigang and fried kankong (or whatever). Ang ganda pa ng ambiance at gwapo yung nag seserve. :D Medyo matagal lang sila mag serve but overall the best.

    I would just like to bring this up to your management's attention. I've sent a private message thru your FB page but no one responded. Last Friday (Jan. 5, 2018) afternoon, we ate here. Food was good and we enjoyed it a lot. But I really can't forget the drinking glasses! 😒 I wasn't able to get a picture of it, went to the bar directly to ask for a replacement instead because I was so thirsty. But I was also surprised how gross the sponge was. It's like it hasn't been replaced for several months 😫! I saw it personally because when the staff gave me a new glass, he cleaned it first with that sponge before handing it over to me 😐Please, I hope there would be someone who can check if the utensils, plates, etc. were cleaned thoroughly. And please check if the sponge that they are using is replaced religiously. So disappointed 😞

    We had their Kare-kare, Krispy Sisig and Pusit Ala Pobre. Too bad they didnt have the baked tahong available at that time :( Whenever i dine out in Filipino restaurants, these are the usual food i order.Kare-kare was yumyum! I like the consistency of the sauce. And the vegetables were still crunchy. Of course, always the best with bagoong. Their bagoong (shrimp paste) is similar to Barrio Fiesta's, salty with a bit of sweetness. Krispy Sisig was good as well. Really crispy. Feeling ko masarap pulutan but we had it as a viand lol aaaaand the Pusit Ala Pobre! I think i finished the whole thing, i love Pusit! I like how they cooked it, not too soft and not too chewy, just right. Tastes good! Since it's cooked Ala Pobre, expect lotsa garlic. Yay! Loved it!We were there on a Sunday lunch so we kinda expected a lot of people and we were right. Mostly families who occupied long tables which means longer waiting/serving time. Nonetheless, we loved the food and will definitely come back!
