Had my dads 60th birthday celebration here with the family. Staff was brilliant and even sang wonderfully to my dad!
Food was simple yet so fantastic! First boodle fight and we were overloaded with food! Very reasonably priced too! Highly recommended!!!

Time your visit for this one because it’s frequently packed but well worth the wait if it’s standing room only...

If there is one thing Cebu does well it is seafood. Blackbeard's Seafood Island in SM Seaside and Ayala make it all happen. If the baboy and the manuk and kanon is getting too much, take a break and visit Blackbeard's. The presentation and food menus are unique. Combo plates are fantastic and the seafood is always well presented and prepared. Drink selection great and service always excellent.

Food as usual is the best. Service is fast. Only downside is they run out of some items in the menu. Aside from that food is consistently delicious.

We went to eat here because we were craving for seafood. Before eating, handwashing is very important. They did not have hand soap and their toilet is so dirty. A terrible bathroom! The worst thing, two of the family members had a terrible LBM and gastritis! Will not come back here again! I was so scared to eat in a Seafood Island branch in Manila.

It took the waitress coming back to our table 3 times to get our order. Every time she took our order and went and turned it in she was informed they were our of Stock. It is a seafood restaurant and she tells me to order chicken.

We visited the restaurant with friends for an evening meal and were disappointed with the result. It appears that they have cut back on the ingredients in their food and increased the amount of rice to make it look more substantial. Not up to their usually high standard. Staff were very good as usual and service timely. Shame about the food.

I was drawn to Blackbeard's Seafood Island by their placard touting a "Beer by the Bucket": five bottles of San Miguel Pale Pilsen for 250 pesos. I was going to sit outdoors but it was getting hot, so I decided to sit in air-conditioned comfort instead. I ordered a bucket of San Miguel and, after it arrived, I decided to order Oysters Rockerfeller, just so that I wouldn't look like an alcoholic having a liquid lunch.The waiter recommended I get the Garlic and Cheese Overload oysters instead, so I switched per his recommendation.
The good news is that the beer was ice cold. But the oysters were very small and were almost undetectable under all that cheese and garlic. Very disappointing.
But eating was just an afterthought, so I really didn't mind that much. My main goal was to kill some time, drinking some beers and taking a little break, by myself, away from the family. I love them but sometimes I like to just chill out without distractions.
Blackbeard's Seafood Island might have some good dishes. But I can definitiely give thumbs down to their oysters. If you're at the mall and have time to kill, you can order a bucket of beer and get a relatively cheap buzz. Not a bad way to shoot the afternoon.

They always serve fresh and tasty seafood. And the serving is really accurate to the size of the party guest. I enjoy eating with bare hands!

Place is new i believe less than 6 months since they opened. Resto is located across from jollie bee in island mall. Place is not big but they have enough staff to cater to your needs. To our surprise food was was really good since I heard from someone else that they were not happy with the food. It takes a bit of time to get your food but it is worth the wait. Their buko halo halo is the best. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We visited their SM Seaside City mall (their newest location) branch for the first time and was particularly blown away with the boodle presentation of the food. Generally the rest of their dishes were all good and tasty. A large family behind our table ordered a HUGE crispy looking thing...I don't exactly know what it was, I think it was a large piece of chicharon (deep fried pork skin) and was quite a sight. The restaurant seems to enjoy entertaining their customers and they seem to reflect that in all their dishes, especially the boodles. Black Adobong Pusit (squid in black ink) are hard to find these days but this shop has it! Services were good and order response time was very satisfactory.
Prices are relatively reasonable compared to other Filipino cuisine. Drinks (especially beer) were cheap. Good for family and a group of friends.

This restaurant bring the taste of sweet and sensual combination of the food. Thanks to a strange combi of fresh milk mouth watering and whipping cream through the recipe with variable Sauce innovative chefs.For Real Gourmet Seafood, steamed clam, this seafood restaurant is always an amazing choice for their finger licking good style. The natural taste of fresh clam, big fatty crabs especially in a hot sauce full of flavor. This is good to taste food, good for your health it gives you the feeling of satisfaction.
