Empire Bar

Empire Bar has the perfect spot in Venice Grand Canal Mall beacuse it sits in the middle of the Canal near Cafe del Mar. Their elegant interiors added a plus to the cozy ambiance of this bar. It may not be that noticeable at night but the flashy lights and groovy music makes it more alive inside. The music syncs with the video that's played on every LED TVs inside. I'm expecting they will play modern house tracks like the genre of Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike, Hardwell, etc. but the music is like a remix of old disco songs. Anyway, I was moved by the music. This is definitely a good place to chill and hang out with friends around Venice Grand Canal Mall. They have tables outside, around the bar and on the bridge. Al fresco dining, for me, gives a romantic vibe because the music is not that loud outside and you get a view on the gondolas floating around the man-made canal while enjoying your meal with your loved ones.Empire Bar shares the same menu with Cafe del Mar. I ordered Beef Lasagna (P420.00). It was saucy and it had a sweet tomatoish taste which I like. Though the lasagna is big, I just find it pricey for a P420.00 meal. Serving is good for 1 person. It comes with a garlic bread (or buttered bread) which was hard. I didn't consume it all. They have a service charge of 10%.I used BigDish app to book and I get a 50% discount that time. I saved a lot.Thank you Bigdish!

Roamed around McKinley with my aunt & we stopped by Empire Bar for a quick bite. I must say that their desserts taste delicious. I got one of their crepes & man I love how the ice cream just melts in your mouth 🤤
