This day has been quite an adventure for my family to say the least! I took the kids and the wifey to Good Shepherd in Banawa Hills for the first time to fly the drone, enjoy the fresh air, the view and of course run wild and free for awhile. That part of our day ended up with my daughter on my arms going downhill in pitch black conditions passing by a cemetery! Anya had to remind herself all the while to “be brave” which is the first time I actually heard her do that! Long story short, after our feeling “ghost hunting” moment we all had to refuel and ended up at Angus Dan’s.
The place and overall ambiance tells you right away the place is well maintained – I even thought they just newly opened which wasn’t the case as they’ve already been around for about a year.
The overall ambiance also tells you upfront that this isn’t your “everyday resto”. The on street receptionist and valet service option is a giveaway as well.
On the entrance doors, we also saw a poster for a Chobi-Chobi restaurant which tells us this is owned by the same folks and I got even more excited knowing they do have their own farms to supply their restaurants (wifey used to order from their organic farm when she was into juicing awhile back).
Before I make this review too wordy again, let me cut myself here and show you what really matters at this point, pictures!
Note: We came in about 7:10PM and the place was about 50% full with a small gathering going on at their function room.
The next slides will be featuring their overall menu for your reference:
Tastewise, the place was ok, not memorable like The Weekend Restaurant but it’s definitely not bad. The ambiance and most of all the customer service wins big time for Angus Dan’s that’s for sure.
However, I find it hard to get past the warm food that was served a little late (30 mins servicing time for me is very much negligible) at a price a little under Viking’s Buffet for each adult (juding from our orders).
I would say this restaurant would probably go well for a group looking for at least two things, quality seafoods and steak since I don’t believe other steak houses offer the same.
If you are looking for a memorable dining experience at a somewhat similar price point though, I would most likely go for The Weekend Restaurant or go straight to Vikings Buffet where you can have all the steak you want along with 99 other dishes and drinks.
If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative to steaks, Acacia Steak House would be my recommendation.
