Friendly. Responsive. Effective and Efficient. Above are the traits that, for me, stood out from the service of this restaurant in Ilo-ilo. They have lots of options to choose from. My favorite is the grilled tanigue, oysters, kangkong, shrimp, and of course, the chicken liver....I would have given 5 star for them if the chicken liver is not, most of the time, unavailable. I get it that it’s always being ordered, but please, am appealing to management to reconsider the order point for the stocks of chicken liver. :) Overall, the experience is still the best. Will definitely go back with my family. Thank you.More

I super loved the baked talaba to think that I'm not a fan of talaba but I actually ended up eating at least 10 which scared me coz hello indigestion but it was just so so good. I made sure to follow it up with...a can of Coke Zero just to be on the safe side but I can definitely say that this baked talaba from Tatoy's is SO WORTH IT!More

The restaurant near Iloilo airport cover a wide range of land with indoor and outdoor dining. You need to fall in line to order. Serving time is ok. We ordered grilled native chicken which is bony because of course it's native and the meat is...quite tough, and baked talaba which was fresh and with lots of cheese toppings.More

Delicious. Super delicious talaba. I’m really not a fan of talaba but their dish made me eat a whole plate of those! The only low was that much of the menu was not available when I was there including the baked talaba which was really...the reason I went there. But the served steamed talaba was enough. Accommodating waiters, too!More

Standard overcooked Filipino food. The grilled chicken quarters are ok. It is extremely popular with the locals, but the food is mediocre. Most food is served on the line, so at least there is not usually a wait for the food.

This rates better than the "Average" rating I've given it but not as good as the "Very good" rating which is the next rating allowed by TripAdvisor. The restaurant is basic but it has a nice relaxed feel about it which is appropriate being so...close to the beach. The food was good and served quickly for such a big restaurant. The prices are very reasonable. Come dressed relaxed and enjoy yourself.More

No visit to Iloilo City is complete without having a meal at Tatoy's. Their branch in Atria is new and features a cafe addition to their usual restaurant set up. Highly recommended.

Have not eaten in Tatoy’s for a long while but brought my sister in law there as it was her first trip to Iloilo. We just had to order Tatoy’s nativen manok- tasty, crisp and so delicious. Plus my favorite seaweeds (pako), maasim (sour) fish...soup and rice! Comfort food at its best!More

I came here with family and ate in one if the cottages over the sand with the water view. If I wasn’t with family with such picturesque views I would have rated it average. I know I’m in the minority for the place is an...institution and it is ginormous. It reminded me of Lancaster Pennsylvania and the very large smorgasbord restaurants. People come here by the busloads but busloads also go to places like Old Country Buffet and nobody says that place has the best food.More

Visited their branch at Atria on a Sunday. The place was packed like a zoo. Very busy and noisy. Ordered 2 of their signature grilled whole native chicken and a few other specialties, valenciana, oysters, managat fish, grilled pusit, etc. The bill was quite more...expensive than for a typical native resto like Ponsyon of Breakthrough and others. The food, especially the chicken, was good.More
