Beyond the great breakfast served daily, I really appreciate everyone in the cafe for their warm welcome and exemplary service. Thanks to Eva and Isay for greeting me with a big smile every morning; to Denis for making my daily dose of caffeine fix; and...also to the intern Hanna, for keeping sure that my water glass isn't empty. I really enjoyed my stay and would really look forward coming back.More

Not worth it for the price you get limited selection like you literally you can count. For the price of 1.6k each this is too much.More

Great food choices and great service from everyone. Shout out to Chef Leonard for being so welcoming and accommodating. Made me feel at home and special. His genuine willingness to accommodate a request was delivered with a Bang! Special mention as well to dining staff...Eva, Lester and Chef Klien for their A1 service and welcoming smile. It was truly an awesome dining experience in a buffet which is rare nowadays. Highly recommended and a MUST visit for those travelling to Davao City.More

Absolutely loved my dining experience at Madayaw cafe for the fourth time! Every meal had incredible flavors, the setting was cozy and welcoming, and the staff—especially Dan—offered flawless service. Dan is particularly noteworthy for his exceptional attention to detail, kind demeanor, and outstanding recommendations. Dan...greeted us with his genuine smile and guided us to our table promptly. Kudos to the chef for creating a culinary masterpiece. Our evening was made even more memorable by the kind hospitality and attention to detail. Overall, Madayaw cafe exceeded my expectations in every aspect. It's clear that the whole staff is committed to giving guests an unforgettable dining experience. The elegant decor and well-chosen background music created a sophisticated yet relaxed setting, making it an ideal place for both intimate dinners and celebratory gatherings. I wholeheartedly recommend Madayaw cafe. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their culinary delights and warm hospitality.More

Complete breakfast selection from salads, soup, filipino breakfast staples and pastries! Reading previous reviews, I think they really listen to feedbacks because I saw one requesting for a kakanin section, and now they have that! Somebody requested for tuyo selection as well but it was...not available on site. However, Chef Leonardo was very accommodating to cook it for us! Basically, they will cook your favorite breakfast food as long as they have it in their kitchen. Can’t wait to try more food as we continue our stay here ☺️ Attaching photo of tuyo that we already munched on! HahaMore
