Why Travelers Love Tales and
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
First time visiting and first time Cebu, chose the spot because of the reviews. Small 2nd floor spot that is cozy. Ordered the Ceasar Salad, prawn ravioli, filet mignon and the Ube Parfait. Everything was good except I didn’t care for the prawn ravioli. Texture was dry and crunchy. Couldn’t eat and moved on to dessert. Which was a good way to end the meal. The only other thing is we shared the dishes and the share plates were way too small. But overall a good experience We recently dined at Tales & Feelings to celebrate what would have been our beloved mother’s birthday. Though we lost her last year, my sisters, our cousin, and his family came together to honor her memory in a place that felt warm and thoughtful. The ambiance was cozy and inviting — perfect for a meaningful gathering. The food was beautifully prepared and full of flavor, and the staff were kind and accommodating, making the experience feel extra special. It was a lovely setting for both remembrance and togetherness. Thank you, Tales & Feelings, for helping us mark this day with grace. Been here many times already and the service has always been good! The servers were always polite and accommodating. We always come back for their bruschetta - it's one of our faves. The mains we got this time were new on their menu and my personal fave was the seafood ravioli (forgot the exact name of the dish) 😋 as for dessert, i liked their chocolate mousse which had some bananas. Special thanks for the complimentary french toast (fave dessert we had at their Amber Hotel branch)!

The food was great, and the portions were generous. Everything was priced very reasonably, with a nice selection of wine. Highly recommend! To add, It was pouring outside, and my husband and I were a bit cold and damp when we arrived. We asked the staff if they could lower the AC, and they did so immediately. They were incredibly kind and attentive from the moment we arrived until the time we left. Will definitely go back

Came as a solo diner for my solo date. I’m very happy with everything—from the interiors, to the sweet staff who were considerate of my food allergies, to the delicious food. I had the salmon fillet and korean fried cauliflower. Both were exquisite. The place feels private and intimate and it’s perfect for couple dates as well. I will definitely come back to dine here.
