We ate at their Eastwood branch last 3rd of November and I was really dismayed by how they portioned their dish, particularly their Short Ribs Stifado. Have a look at the photos where you'll see a dish full of bones. I just ate a couple of small beef cuts but that is it. Those big chunks were bones and it is not fair to a paying guest like me that they lacked attention in portioning the food well. I hope this won't happen again as I strongly believe that we should get the value for our money. The salad and fillet mignon were perfect, though. Service was okay, the manager gave us complimentary ice cream and admitted the mistake.

I used to love this place but unfortunately the quality of food and level of service have declined. Upon entering the restaurant, the ventilation is no longer good. The resto was filled with smoke that our clothes ended up smelling like food. The salad quality was not okay. It was semi-wilted. The lamb that we ordered to be cooked medium was served almost raw and there were more bones than meat. On the flip side, their meatless moussaka was still superb.

I instantly fell in love with Cyma the first time I ate here. Meditteranean food may be an acquired taste and you can say that the price of the dishes are quite on the pricey side but the flavors are really amazing and I think it is worth every penny!=======(F)ood:=======What my usual order at Cyma would be:Tonnos Salata - this is their tuna salad. I love the coriander-crusted seared ahi tuna! so fresh and that summber herb vinaigrette is so refreshing. As I refrain from the homemade anchovies and the green beans (which I miss eating by the way), I love the olives and the boiled egg. One really yummy and healthy option for those who love eating salads.Spinach and Artichoke Fondue - one of those really great Hot Mezedes from Cyma. Love dipping the EVOO bread and homemade pita to that dipping gooey melting cheee, sun-dried tomateos, feta and anchovies. Pastisado - I love that buccatini pasta and the ohhh so yummy beef shanks swimming in that fresh Greek tomato sauce. I am salvating while writing this review, omg haha! Chicken and Seafood Youvetsi - I super love the combination of chicken and seafood is this always hot and steaming clay pot of paella! The texture and the size of the rice is perfect! yum yum yum!Hirine Brizola - this is my ultimate favorite here! I always order two pieces of this 3/4 thick and tender bone-in pork chops! I always chose roasted potatoes as side and ask for an extra helping of their sauce. I also use their spicy oil to dip that thick pork chop! OMG so perfect for the meat lovers like me.Cyma Fillet Mignon - of course, what would be a fancy dinner without a Fillet Mignon! I always order medium rare! :) they put cheese on top of the the fillet and yum so perfect!You should also try their bottomless iced tea! Love the stong taste of homemade iced tea with that hint of lemon.===========(A)mbience:===========This branch is adorned with thick ropes mimicking I think those galleon ships that the Greeks use long before. The walls are also adorned with people adorned in Greek robes reminiscent of Old Grecian people. The seats are comfy and the space are clean. There are unique lamps that hang from the ceilings of the restaurant.  There are parts though that are too cold so better choose your seat wisely. You may also choose to eat al fresco as they offer plenty of seats outside the restaurant.=================(B)utler Service:=================I have been close with some of the servers as I eat here almost once a month. The servers are quick on their feet and refill your iced tea almost instantly. Love that they know the dishes.

have been dining alone for the past few days (boo hoo) and 'twas my first time to try souvlaki. now i know why an entire slowdive album is named after these skewered pieces of meat lol. i chose to order chicken souvlaki - mostly because am on a tight budget - and i have to say, i was pleasantly surprise cause??? even the onions were so damned edible (and i loathe onions. with a passion, bruh). to cut a long and rambling story short, i'd definitely come back again. (also mad props to the genuinely nice crew of cyma eastwood hihi)

(2nd week May 2019)Had lamb gyro for lunch and baklava for dessert.Perfect combo. Delicious as usual!Also had moussaka - great tasting / healthier alternative to traditional lasagna.The sides, cauliflower rice & asparagus w/ feta were a bit salty. We'll make sure to mention 'less salt' next time.***2nd time this week at Cyma - Eastwood branchWe had...1. Roka Salata (solo) - taste is well balanced and salad dressing is not overpowering; value for money as solo serving is already good for 2.2. Lamb Souvlaki (medium well) - tenderness and juiciness of meat is perfect, tastes great on its own, but best eaten with greek yogurt dip and pita bread.P.s. Customer service is great!***Healthy food that tastes great + big servings!We had...1. Hummus - consistency is just right, full of flavor, perfect with pita bread.2. Grilled lamb w/ watermelon salad - meat and fruit complement each other -- surprisingly delicious.

Dined here during a business meeting with a bank. Cyma is always a go to restaurant serving tasty dishes. Go to food are always the salads and spinach dips. Price is on the expensive side though, but food is always guaranteed to be fresh, healthy and delicious.

So glad there is another branch near our place. The Shangri la branch is always full and hard to get a seat. Fave picks here:1. Rola Salata - Mixed Green Lettuce and Arugula, with andied walnut and parmesan shavings. I became a fan of salads because of this.2. Steamed Mussels - crowd pleaser2. Calamari - Squeeze the lemon to elevate the taste!#musttry @cyma

Taking photos of Cyma’s mouthwatering parade of yummy food is my equivalent of other people’s selfie habit — I can’t stop doing it, even though they look the same each time.And how can I? I order the same things every time, and I know I can expect the same experience each time — the food will look amazing, and they will be even more delicious than they look.Another thing I can always count on with Cyma, specifically their Eastwood branch, is the warm and friendly service from all their staff. Whether we’re a big party or just a small table for two, we get the same focus and attention either way.It’s no wonder why Cyma Eastwood has become our favorite restaurant throughout the years for celebrating countless birthdays, Mothers/Fathers days, homecomings with balikbayan friends, or even just a nice and quiet weekend date.OUR FAVOURITES1. Spinach artichoke fondue2. Solomos pasta3. Roasted potatoes4. Cauliflower rice5. Hirini brizola6. Onglet (Hangar steak)7. Kreatika meat platter———————Frequency of visit: At least once every two monthsinstagram.com/abernathyeats#AbernathyEats #WillTravelForFood #Favourite #HighlyRecommended

You can’t go wrong with flaming saganaki, roka salata, and moussaka. They have great affordable food with big serving. A guiltless dinner full of cheese for tonight. #cheKKit

Was in the mood for less conventional cuisine here in Manila so we decided to try out the Cyma branch in Eastwood.Just like their Greenbelt branch, service and food here did not let us down. Got the Ribs Stifado and Lamb Fricasse which we devoured in less than 20 mins. Even joked my friend that he should get a job here then quit 2 weeks after learning all their recipes. Though restaurant was on the pricier side, the food and ambience was worth it. Would highly recommend for those who want to have a balanced palate and try less conventional dishes.
