Hands down the BEST restaurant i’ve eaten at in Laguna! We went here for dinner after a hike, so I can’t say anything about their rooms. Walk-in. The food serving was generous, their prices are just right (not too expensive; we were 4 hungry people dining and the bill was just about 3,000 PHP), their staff are nice, and the environment is very aesthetic and nice. Everything was in theme. Even if it took about 25-30 mins for the food to be served, it was so relaxing to wait in the floating bahay kubos. Their toilets were clean, complete with toilet paper, bidet and liquid hand soap. We ordered their grilled squid, pancit, tuna belly sinigang, Lucban longganisa, grilled tilapia, etc. They were generous with their rice portions. The food was cooked to PERFECTION. Only wish i had was i hope they had salted egg for the pakku and the ensaladang talong. Otherwise, 10/10!! Would come again!

We've been recommending this restaurant to guests at our resort: Villa Arcadia. It is fantastic, the food, service and atmosphere are all great and they add up to an amazing experience. It will be compared to its neighbor, Isdaan. Kamayan offers a better experience in everyway; a more refined menu, a more thoughtful resturant layout, and faster service.

10 minutes away from Los Banos City proper is this beautiful place. The waiting time for your table can be quite long if you do not have a reservation and you come during peak hours. But the wait is worth it. The food is scrumptious and the ambiance is very peaceful so dining here with the fish swimming around you is a lovely experience. While you wait for your table they get your orders as well so take that time to roam around the scenic premises and viola once your table is ready your food will likely be ready as well. Parking is not a problem here, the cost is Ok, so we will be coming back.

This area has expanded through the years. From floating cottages, it has grown to include dining pavilions. The food quality has not changed. There is now a nearby hotel and lagoon. Update: The security guard at the parking entrance has become the guest's guide to seating hut or area designation based on availability and number of pax. There is now a beckon buzzer in each hut, no longer do you have to chance upon a waiter for ordering and billing out. One thing that they have to improve is credit card payment. C'mon people are no longer bringing cash! Although Kamayan accepts online payment, but this is OK if you have good cellular coverage and data! Crispy pata is really crispy and the diy sauce is just superb! Kare kare is so good! Tripe and vegetables are perfectly cooked! Sisig is still cooked too perfection.
