Terry's Bistro - Makati

Had lunch here with my staff and a business partner. Parking is a bit of a problem at this side of Terry's. We ordered the seafood paella, seafood curry symphony and cocido madrileno. The paella was great, even if a little bit thin serving.  The cocido is also good. You can taste the 3 kinds of chorizos they used plus is loaded with tender pork and chicken.  Great value and highly recommended! My rating for Terry's is as follows" Ambiance             4/5 Service                 4.5/5 Value for Money  4.5/5 Will definitely recommend Terry's.

Went here with our team for a lunch meeting. The place is intimate, cozy and suitable for discussions. I ordered the pumpkin soup, paella (tastes really good), catch of the day (tastes amazing), and the picatostes (a different take on your normal churros). The service was kinda slow though there wasn't much guests that time. Quite pricey but the food is great. Perfect for casual business meetings.

Whenever I crave for something Spanish (or our office wants something Spanish) or just want to have a romantic evening or a sangria-filled girl's night, Terry's bistro is one of the few places we visit. I started off with a glass of Sangria which will already last me till dessert followed by their appetizer. I would recommend you to get their European cheese and cold platter to start with or their croquettes. You may add some angel's nest pasta As for the main, I'd recommend to try anything with iberico ham (yes, i'm serious with this). It's a good combo with their sangria. Of course don't forget their famous black paella. It was just the two of us who ate it and we were able to finish it quickly (considering how hungry we were at that time) We didn't order any dessert last time but we got a dessert for free because of an app. We were able to try their leche flan. Boy, it was so good that it melted in our mouth.

Terrys had excellent customer service. They make you feel at home and well attended to. However I must say, the food was not at par. For one, the pasta they served seemed soggy. It was made of cream, salmon and bacon, supposedly upscale ingredients, yet the spaghetti was not al dente! I cry. The gambas though was commendable for having succulent shrimps, and so was the lemonade, which was really freshly squeezed. I would recommend Terrys though for its hush -hush ambiance, perfect for meetings and slow dining, very Spanish indeed!

January 22, 2016 || #1036 || A place for a nice date, but Terry's is a place for any day. Terry's Bistro Salcedo is a 3-storey restaurant serving delicious dishes from Spain. During afternoons it's an ideal venue for intimate business meetings, as the 3rd floor is quiet and sound dampened to keep the conversation amongst the table. "San Jacobo" De Lomo Iberico La Crema Del Cesar (525 PHP) imagine a Katsu, its familiar deep-fried golden brown appearance doesn't look all that special, but the creamy filling and tender meat make up for that.  Chuletillas de Cordero (575 PHP) Lamb cutlets on a bed of garlic mashed potatoes and drizzled with Ribera de Duero wine reduction. It's Mini-lamb chops, 3 pieces of meaty lamb that's best eaten on its own and followed by the mashed potato mixed with the wine sauce. Recommended to pair with a starter as its serving size won't suffice, as with most their main dishes, an exception for their heavy-weigth steaks and shareable stews. Astriana (330 PHP) Basically a cheese omelette with a pancake like appearance from the pan it was cooked in. The Cabrales cheese béchamel is strong, but not overly so that it's unbearable, just enough to burst with strength. It's always something we look forward to when dining at Terry's. eater.ph
