Visited with friends last January 8, 2021 and we were intrigue on what the fuzz was about. We were not wrong, the nesting table offers spectacular view with amazing food choices. One of the best in Elnido! There is a tall climb of stairs but...everything is worth it! As we enter, we were greeted by friendly staff who took our temperature and noted our details. We were able to reserve the veranda table. The food was great and everything was very relaxing. I specially loved the dessert menu. It rained before we were able to leave but the staff offered us some games to play. Overall the experience was superb. Will mostly visit again when we go back to Elnido.More

The most incredible dining spot in all of El Nido. Quite a climb to work up your appetite, and so worth it when you get there! The view is sensational, the decor and vibe relaxed and super cool, and the food was honestly sensational. Their...local version of ceviche was the best we've ever had. We climbed that hill twice to eat there in just 3 days. Can't fault a thing <3More

I visited the nesting table with my girlfriend and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the portions will make sure you do not leave hungry. The views from the restaurant are incredible. Since the restaurant is located on the side of a...mountain you get an excellent view of 7 Commando Beach. This is a restaurant that I would definitely go back to. If there is a con it is the climb up to the restaurant but to list that as a can is just nit picking.More

Aside from the amazing beaches and limestone cliffs of El Nido, our date at The Nesting Table at Birdhouse El Nido is a highlight of our trip. This place is truly a hidden gem, you will need to climb steps of bamboo stairs but you...will definitely be rewarded once you get up with an amazing view! We went there during lunch time so it wasn’t too crowded. They say going there during sunset is amazing too! Plus the dogs are a plus! Definitely recommending this place when you’re in El Nido! ❤️More

I absolutely LOVE everything about Birdhouse. Friends and other travellers I met had recommended I pop by for yoga, and I couldn’t help checking out the restaurant too as the interiors are stunning, let alone the VIEW! Wow, talk about romantic!! Definitely book ahead for...sunset drinks and dinner on the balcony with your loved one. If you are vegetarian or vegan, The Philippines can be a little tricky for food - I had the best meal of my 2 week travels at Birdhouse, the vegetarian curry. Sooo tasty, fresh, wholesome, and soy free - I have a soy allergy. The night that we stopped for dinner after yoga the restaurant tables were fully booked. However the lovely staff allowed us to eat on the couch / coffee table and we were so grateful! Also had amazing fluffy pancakes on a different morning on the balcony. Not vegan, but super indulgent. Cannot recommend this place enough. A perfect evening in El Nido, sunset yoga and dinner at Birdhouse!More
