yellow bird cafe x kitchen

their service deteriorated. everything is inconsistent from their food to their staff to their reservation process. nothing good to say about this restaurant anymore sadly :( siguro one thing na maganda lang dito is their lights outside but other than that wala na talaga. sayang antipolo is such aniceplace to come visit pero walang restaurant na masarap na you’ll keep coming back for more.

history repeats itself:

people who come to dine have reasons. they want to have a good time and explore gastronomically. especially when they go for a long drive for it.
it was my son’s 30th bday yesterday. of course you would want aniceplace. we came from lunch at pililia so we’re stuffed. we wanted coffee and snacks before we went home. there wasn’t a queue, the area inside the al fresco was not taken when we arrived and would fit 10! we we’re not offered that for some reason, we are patient and can respect rules but after 15mins guests were seated there. 2 tables were occupied at the alfresco and the manager said we will have it to ourselves since the customers have billed out but they didn’t, they ordered again, waited for the 3rd person. the manager should have been aware and should’ve attended us since it was almost an hour of waiting and not all were seated at an area big enough for us. i even said we were ok there if they just add tables and we’re good. yes, we said we were willing to wait but not 2hrs. to be seated! in other words, we were neglected! order were delivered here and there. new customers were seated and served except us. i had a squabble with the manager and a rude waiter so i called for the owner who lived nearby. they were watching the cctv all along, they saw us arrive! 15pax and another 3pax after a while, isn’t that something you should watch out for? a big group is one big wave for the kitchen, something exciting if i may say. i am a restaurateur too. spent almost 10k in pililia. i could definitely afford your menu, no freebies needed.

unfortunately, maybe 5yrs in the business and customers come and go, so they were just not willing to go out of their way for a bunch of super disappointed/disgusted (still an understatement) customers. we just heard excuses and past experiences of incidents that we really didn’t need at that time. they did apologize but never even offered that since we were there, maybe attend to us that we be seated and ate the soonest time possible because we were starved! a little compensation or special treatment after our ordeal, the emotions we had to deal with and worse, ruin our day and our son’s 30th bday. we were there 5:30 and some of our food were served after 2hours! no utensils, no tissues and they served the sirracha chicken wings first without our drinks or even water. try asking 3x and water comes. no luck on our drinks coz they said they only had one barrista on a freakin saturday? sorry, i don’t buy that. my customers get their utensils and water 5mins while browsing the menu. when you go there, you might be attended and asked for the qr almost instantly but don’t be fooled, this has happened before and this is how they handle it. get more people, they must be exhausted thus lapses and incompetence. sorry maam angie, you didn’t handle it at all. 15pax kami and 3 more friends of my daughter drive all the way to meet us. your manager excellent receptionist. get a good manager to call the shots, someone efficient. of course he didn’t get any scolding, he is your godson. oh well, good luck still.😤

staff are friendly, cozy place, delish food.

sinigang na baka 👍👍👍👍👍
my fave among sa inorder namin. malambot ang meat and flavorful. i can taste the ripe tomatoes which gave it anicecolor.

creamy shrimp and pesto pasta 👍👍👍👍
i'm not a fan of pesto, but i enjoyed it.

okoy 👍👍👍👍 is okay na okay, sarap nung dip and the okoy itself is very crispy.

smoked brisket 👍👍👍 okay naman yung flavor, but i want it to be more juicy. mejo on the dry side kasi sya.

overall experience is 4/5.
looking forward to a6 wagyu and bbribs wala kasi during our visit.

update!!!
bumalik kami 🥰

g6 wagyu is 🥰🥰🥰🥰. tender and nakuha talaga yung med rare na gusto ko 🥰

potato wedges, nothing special okay lang, so-so

creamy shrimp and pesto pasta is 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 binalikan namin kasi yummy talaga.

bulgogi is okay lang din.

sisig is ordinary

manager is accomodating, yung waiter na naassign samin ngayon is hindi kasing accommodating nung isa, pero okay lang. we all have bad days ika nga.

nireserve nila yung magandang place samin as requested. happy with the service 🥰

overall expi 4.5/5

the place is quite small but has a reallyniceinterior and the ambiance of the place is peaceful.
staff are very accommodating. the price of their meals matches the serving size. the food tastes good. i really liked their nachos, raspberry cooler and the ribs 😊

what i didn't like is that their comfort room is not that clean.

a good hangout place in antipolo.niceambiance and delicious food. i especially love the scampi pasta because it has a bit of spicyness.
i find the nachos unexpectedly sweet maybe because of the sauce but it's okay.
i wish the location is nearer because we found it hard to book a grab when we left the area.
hoping to visit again next time and try the other food! :)

we went here before lunch around 10:30. we ordered tinapang bangus, pansit bihon, and pork katsudon(not on photo). we had the food to go so as we wait for our food, i’ve observed their staff and check out the place.

when we came in, we went straight at the counter and tell them that we’ll order food for to take out. they were not paying attention yet as it looks like the cashier and the server at the counter were doing something else. so i just asked if we just had to get a table and then order from there. the cashier answered yes and asked the server to take our order. the server went to us and handed over the menu but i told them that we have selected our orders (thanks to zomato!). he took our orders and took about 45 mins for our orders to be served. mind you that they forgot to give us the pansit bihon and just realized that after 10 mins or so when checking our orders in the car. so we had to return to the resto. it’s a good thing that we haven’t left the area. anyway, they need to work on their customer service skills. although the cashier apologized, no one has went out and chase us that are orders are not complete yet. a need to work on being organized.

the interior isnicehowever they have a tight spacing of their tables and chairs that customers who are eating would be too conscious when servers or other customers would walk the aisle. they have to adjust the table set-up.

the food that we ordered are okay nothing special. overall, i would give a 3.5 not that bad experience but nothing separates them from other regular resto and a lot of things to improve on, in the food business.

oh, by the way, it looks like the 2 storey building infront of the resto is their function room.

anicelittle modern cafe and bistro situated at the lip of a village subdivision. we had nachos and wings. the nachos were the 🧨🧨 i've never finished a whole plate but i did this one. wings were ok.

we had coffee afterwards. their americano and cappuccino were really good. we got cute seats under the stairs as well, quite romantic actually. one thing though, the bistro is in a separate area from the main cafe which is why the order took a while to arrive.

found this on spot. a bit of a ride away from qc but worth the miles. proportion was good and the atmosphere isniceand quiet. the pricing was reasonably good. menu has a good amount of lood and drinks listed. will definitely reccomend and go back.

yummy foods specially the pasta. yummy din ng monte cristo and the okoy.niceambiance. need lang more training sa staff like maybe they can recommend some foods from the menu or offer drinks so they can upsell to each customers. it'll also help if they will count the money after customers paid them just for security on both sides. yun lang naman tingin ko need ng improvements. yummy lahat ng pasta nila. will definitely come back here.

we waited almost an hour for our orders despite the restaurant only being half-full. :( but the food doesn’t disappoint. pasta is al dente, appetisers came out hot and crispy. servers wereniceand accommodating.

ps: waiting time could be relative because a pack came in 20 mins after us and got their orders almost at the same time as us.

would give 4.0 if not for the long wait time.
3.5/5

this seems to be a new resto in the block and we had been lucky enough to get a seat as it became full around lunchtime in 30 mins after we sat down 😂 we tried their entrees which came with a glass of wine... the steak, the salmon and ribs. we also had their salmon cream pasta and their shrimp scampi. all the food we ordered tasted really good tho it was a bit expensive. but people like me... pica pica person - can share their platters. their dessert tasted great too - sansrival and oreo cheesecake - partnered with freshly brewed coffee. ambience wasnicehowever, there were areas in the resto that the servers had to go in and out of the resto to reach it, thus food becomes exposed. the second level of the resto also need to have the door fixed as it slams when closed. all in all we would gladly go here again given another chance to explore antipolo.

doesn't have much seat options because they were a bit full when we visited. food wasniceand the place is clean. i like the artsy ambiance and the colorful plates.

the problem here is their service!!!!!! the food isnicenaman. pero mehhhhh it was my second time here, bill out lang aabutin pa ng syam syam pano kase panay daldalan 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

it's aniceplace to hangout in but the food and the drinks were nothing special. the chocolate drink was watered down by the ice and in terms of taste, it tasted like it was from a pre-mixed powder. the bacon, although crispy, tasted like the honey-cured bacon of purefoods. give the tapa a chance though. :)

delicious food, cozy place.niceplace to catch up with friends. the pasta is good, the bread served together with the pasta is not a garlic bread so i kinda bit disappointed.
