We were taking my tita out to dinner before she flies back to US. So its fitting to send her off with Pinoy dinner, thus I end up booking a table (thru website app) at Crisostomo. Never eaten here but i heard some good feedback from my friends.We chose several entrees: dinuguan, pinakbet, kuhol, callos, paella negra and of course lechon. I was impressed with all dishes except with kuhol which i did not try as im not a shell food lover. The lechon balat was crisp. The dinuguan was flavorful as well as the callos. The paella negra was also equally impressive, you wont think that there was squid ink on it being a non-seafood lover. The branch in newport was packed on a wednesday so I definitely recommend to book a table for dinner. If you want authentic pinoy food, Crisostomo is the answer.

No space in the restaurant, they basically sat us beside another family. Many servers were just standing around doing nothing. This is a real step down from the branch we usually eat at in UP Town Center. If you know you're at full capacity, ask customers to wait rather than making them pay 1500 pesos for a 250 peso experience.

One of my favorite filipino restaurant!! Have tried their karekare, crispy pata, lengua, and baked tahong with cheese!! It took me a time to choose what to order because almost all of their foods looks yummy!

Crisostomo. Always reminds me of Jose Rizal. I heard so much about this Filipino restaurant. My sister again reminded me to have our dinner here during our 8-hour Manila stopover.When we arrived, the place is full. But the attendant told us that there's already a customer asking for their bill. Thats very good.The place is nice. Ambience is also nice. Both Filipino and foreigners dine here. So it's a good sign that this restaurant really got a reputation.We ordered:Paella FilipinoPrawn gambasPaella negraLengua with button mushroomLechon kawali with laingPalabok - who the hell ordered this?Everything we ordered were very delicious. And expensive. But no upset stomach during our whole trip. So it means we will be back again sometime soon. Highly recommended. By the way, we still paid for the palabok.

Ordered Paella Negra and Kangkong con Selo for dinner. Crisostomo’s restaurant in Newport is located at 2F where most of restaurants are also located. Paella Negra is Crisostomo’s version of Spanish rice dish with adobong pusit and pork. It’s definitely good to share because of its large serving. I enjoyed the rice, it seemed an authentic black rice. Kangkong con Selo has also a quite big serving. For drinks, we tried pineapple juice. Affordable price for big serving of food!

Stopped by for lunch and it wasn't super busy so we were able to get a table straight away. We were given menus and flagged a waiter when we were ready to order.The drinks (pitcher of melon juice) took about 10 minutes and the first of the food about 20 minutes.The food was quite nice. Each had their own unique flavour and they were all very tasty. Favourite of the bunch was the adobo pusit. The jet black sauce had the right amount of saltiness which went well with the rice and the pieces of squid were tender. Personally disliked the sinigang since it was too sour. Decent portions and quite nice food so not a bad place to come to if you're in the area and want Filipino food.

Overpriced and with food that doesn't taste better than homecooking or something you can buy from cheaper places or even karinderias. If anything, our homecooking tastes a lot better. Calamares and fishball are almost 300php. We went here while we were accompanying my boyfriend's cousin who came to visit here from the US. Since she's the guest, we went for Filipino cuisine. We had sisig, lechong kawali, mussels, dinuguan, and adobo rice. Taste wise, I would prefer home made meals. Highly disappointed. They could have atleast added some twists to justify the price but no. It's just an overpriced place. I wouldn't mind paying this much if my tastebuds are satisfied but it's way less than the level I was expecting. I could barely finish my plate.

Filipino restaurant with unique satisfying dishes. Ambiance is really nice. Those who love pinoy dishes will surely love this place. The menu is very creative because of their names. Paella Negra is a must try, the rice was evenly flavored, suprisingly a bit sweet, the pork/squid on it is also tender. Their sinigang made it to my list of go-to comfort food. Dessert is great as well. Everything we ordered filled our tummies with satisfaction. Staff was attentive and accomodating since they charge quite high for service charge. Price was a bit high too but their serving portions were huge.Overall, they offer authentic Filipino dining experience.
