Since traffic was going to be bad as per waze, my friend and I decided to eat in the car. Malcom's made sense.So we got Grilled Chicken for main, split into 2. It was pricey at Php 380. And its the cheapest one in the sandwiches or maybe in the entire menu. Somehow justified with a very nice bread and ample great flavored chicken. For a simple dessert, we got French Toast. Just the way I like it, fluffy and not so sweet. If only it wasn't pricey.

This restaurant grow their own cows. They only sell kitayama steaks per 100 grams for a minimum order of 300 grams. Each serving comes with three kinds of flavored sea salt plus your choice of sauce and sides. It's one of the best wagyu steaks I've had so far. And I must say even the veggies possessed some fresh goodness. It's quite easy to miss being tucked at one corner of BGC and McKinley so make sure to check the location online if you're visiting first time. Since it's a delicatessen they also sell meat, locally made theo philo chocolates, and Carmen's best ice cream.

I like this quaint deli in Fairways. They have good sandwiches, pancakes, and pastries too. Ideal place to buy coffee too. Expensive for what it is too.

I've been here (Fairways Tower Mc Kinley Parkway cor 5th Ave) twice for breakfast and really enjoyed the food both times. The pancakes are nice and fluffy (and very filing!). The Malcolm's Benedict is made with tender slivers of wagyu beef tapa, and the hollandaise sauce (poured over the egg, or can be served on the side if you ask) was very flavorful and creamy.The place doesn't see a lot of traffic in the mornings so it's actually cozy and a good place to talk. As it was breezy and we brought our dog, we sat outdoors. It would have been more pleasant if not for the many flies.Service is efficient and friendly. My son dropped his wallet without realizing it as we left after breakfast. He came back in the afternoon to check if it was there, and before he could even ask the staff, one of them who recognized him from the morning approached him with his wallet. Thank you very much to the honest staff, we really appreciated that and we will definitely come back here to patronize a restaurant that employs good people.

Even though I don't get a chance to have it on a daily basis, I am always on the lookout for a great place to have breakfast. I know it's considered the most important meal of the day, but when you're expected to be at the office by 10am everyday, it's pretty tough to make time for a morning meal.

One of my favorite breakfast spots, nice ambiance and they deliver in BGC. One thing id point out the number listed needs to be updated its 025563188.Things to try include their large selection of wagyu! My fav is their wagyu sisig, wagyu burgers, and wagyu tapa is pretty good. Although probably not the best steakhouse, certainly one of the most affordable ones! Their rib eye and steak and eggs bear a good mention!A bit of a shame they actually close so early at 9 pm every day. It would be a nice place to take visitors to, or even have a few pints after work.

We ordered delivery which came pretty quick. The salpicao and buffalo wings were super average at best way overpriced. The breakfast here is pretty good but wasn't too happy with the price and serving size.

I came to discover Malcolm's deli because I was craving for Eggs Benedict and they served pretty interesting versions of this dish while I was looking at their menu online. They were also rated quite high. They had the Classic Eggs Benedict, served with Canadian ham, spinach, onions, eggs, and hollandaise. They also had the Malcolm's Benedict, a twist that substitutes the ham with their popular Kitayama Wagyu tapa and Mushrooms. Of the two, I preferred the Classic Benedict. It had a very buttery hollandaise sauce and the canadian ham and spinach balanced the dish pretty well. Unfortunately, the yolk of the egg was not runny at all and very overcooked - a hige disappointment. The Malcolm's Benedict, on the other hand, had more lows than the first one. I didn't prefer the flavor of the tapa at all and the eggs were even more horrible! It looked like a sunny side up egg rather than a poached egg. Malcolm's is a breakfast place, and I expect perfect breakfast when dining here. Sadly, I wasn't impressed and I doubt I'll come back. The service was not up to the standards I thought a place like Malcolm's would have. The place itself was homey but tiny, it's quite hard to get around inside and a bit dim-lighted.Food Quality: 3.0Service Quality: 3.0Ambiance: 3.5Overall Quality: 3.0Malcolm's Deli, known for their breakfast meals, don't seem to do breakfast all that well. There are elements that they did get right, but I don't think i'd ever rate an eggs ben highly unless it has perfectly runny yolk and a delicious hollandaise. They had 4 opportunities for great poached eggs then, all of them were overcooked. Cheers,Chef Jay

Due to the consistent craving/obsession of a friend for eggs ben, we ended up dining here in Malcolm's Deli one Friday lunch. We decided to order the Classic Benedict (Canadian Ham, Spinach, Onion, Eggs and Hollandaise) and Malcolm's Benedict (Kitayama Wagyu Tapa, Mushrooms, Spinach, Onion, Eggs and Hollandaise). I like the flavors and the balanced flavor of the dishes, however the poached eggs ruined the experience for me. The poached eggs are overcooked! 😭😭😭. I love the ambiance of the place, a really good place if you want to hang out with friends, the menu price is okay (for BGC), I just wished that they serve their food with consistency. Some of my workmates also commented that they ate a better version of their dish the last time they dined in the resto. I'll definitely try making these eggs ben in my kitchen. But will I dine here in Malcolm's again? Sure, why not. Honestly though, I'll try some other restos around the area before I'll come back here.

Had a chance to dine at the recently-talked-about Malcolm's deli due to a college reunion brunch. They now offer breakfast and when I opened the menu, multiple choices of Eggs Benedict. Yey!I know they are famous for their Kitayama Beef, but unable to eat beef at the moment, I ordered the Classic Eggs Benedict. Before eating, I was reading reviews and this eggs benedict had a mixed review. Well, I'm glad that my eggs benedict is perfect. The poached egg was runny, the ham was flavorful, and the hollandaise was butter-fully addicting. Probably the best I had so far.Wanting something light, my wife ordered Fish and Shrimp Po'boy. I wanted to order this in the first place but I had to choose Eggs Benedict. I tried half of her po'boy, but the taste was disappointing. The oversized bread overpowered most of the filling and the seafood was a bit too salty.The place is a good venue for reunion because of its cool and relaxing ambiance. It is not crowded too so you can talk for a long time. (I'm not sure if that is good for the restaurant though).
