Finestra is a wonderful Italian restaurant here in the Metro. They have beautiful ambiance and great selection of Italian food and steaks. They also offers wide selection of Italian wine and wine from other countries (from cheap price- expensive)
We really enjoyed the first day of our year because of the delicious food and the exceptional service provided to us. We ordered Steak, pizza and pasta and it was all cooked to perfection. Our server is very accommodating, attentive, helpful and very friendly. Thank you Mary for giving us such a great experience. Looking forward to more visit here! Kudos also to the whole team. Happy New Year!!

We went to Finestra to celebrate our 4th Anniversary with friends. We opted for the aperitivo happy hour specials and we loved it. We always go to Finestra to celebrate special occasions because I find the place romantic and elegant. All of their staff are well mannered, courteous and pleasing, most specially the Manager Mr. Manuel is so accommodating and made us feel so special. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone who wants to have a romantic date with their special someone, have pre-game cocktails or just chill out and have fun with friends.

The food was great, and the music was proper for the vibe of the whole restaurant. The food was kept fresh and heated, and was served on time. The servers, Pat and Eric, were also very attentive to our needs, and gave us proper refreshments even before the start of our meals.

Had an amazing dinner here in Solaire with my husband last Decemeber. We were so impressed with the warm welcome and amazing service provided to us. Best steak we've had since we arrive here in Manila. My husband would like to say thank you to Sedric as he really paid attention to our table and made our dinner more enjoyable

What a pleasant way to spend Sunday with family here at Finestra.
Finestra offers a variety of appetizers as well as charcuterie, steaks, and desserts. Make sure to try their rib eye, carved and served by the head chef himself. We also commend the staff for being attentive to our needs.
Till the next time!

My boyfriend and I went to Finestra to celebrate our 6th year anniversary and left it as a newly engaged couple. It is definitely a memorable place for us not only for our special moment but also for the great hospitality, quality food, and beautiful ambiance.
Upon entering, we were greeted by friendly staff and then directed to our table. To our left as we entered the restaurant is an elegant bar where you can have some drinks and hang out to unwind.
Our table was situated near the open terrace area with a beautiful sunset view flanked by tall coniferous trees. It was the perfect spot where my boyfriend proposed ❤️ Thankfully the moment was captured by our gracious hostess in video and photo. To make things even more special, we were surprised by one of the staff with complimentary glasses of champagne to toast. By the way, the staff helped my then boyfriend with the proposal and suggested to do it by the area with the beautiful view of the sunset! Talk about going above and beyond expectations!
We were given amuse bouche for starters and ordered the Giant Burrata, Agnolotti Tartufo Carbonara (a lovely surprise because it looks like Ravioli), the Snake River Farms Wagyu Beef Tenderloin, and red wine to go with our meal. These were recommended dishes from reviews we’ve read online and they did not disappoint. Just when we thought we were done with our meal, we were given complimentary chocolate and limoncello to cap things off.
From our experience, we felt that customer delight is a top priority. Thank you again to the wonderful staff at Finestra for making our experience truly memorable! We will always look back on this place with great fondness. We hope to be back again soon!

Still here but I wanted to share how well they serve us for tonight. They are attentive and their service are commendable. They would try to attend to all the request as soon as possible and they don't need to be called like they are anticipating all the needs of the diner. Kudos to our server for tonight, Edralyn. She's such a professional.

Relatively slow night from a busy week when I got a chance to dine in on the best Italian resto in the city, the service was excellent, ambience was perfect for a couples' evening to catch up. Be sure to not over indulge with the tasty pastry too much as you wait for your main course of the night. As we are lead by our server Christian on the best choice for our dinner, we somewhat reminisce old movies eating on a posh place...
We got the porterhouse steak, it was good for 4 already, and dont forget to have mash potatoes on the side, perfect combo! Just missed the great photo op on that.
While capping the dinner with dessert of tiramisu and ferrero gelato with a real gold flake on top!
We thought it was the end but there was more! A special chocolate treat made exclusively by chefs, ah, took me time to choose.
Thankful with sir Christian serving us tonight. A must place for anyone with a taste of class.

Linguine is great, but the true stars are the beef dishes. Pair it with a red wine from their extensive list and finish everything with Tiramisu and espresso. Wonderful! To sum up my review, when in Manila, if you love steakhouses with warm and hospitable people, look no further! Patricia, Neiel, Mira and the whole staff will be happy to assist you.

We had a perfect dinner last night all thanks to finestra staff and our server Kaye. She perfectly portioned all our food in different tables plus she’s been very patient and accommodating to our special requests last night. We had mushroom soup for starters followed by the pizzas... For the main course,we had prime rib eye steak, carbonara and bolognese. To end our evening, she serve tiramisu and chocolate box for everyone....THANK YOU FINESTRA. We will be back for sure!

Go here if you want a lasting memory. As always, it was an experience to last a lifetime for us—as we know it will be for you. Finestra’s staff is so professional, accommodating, and attentive. Edralyn, our host for the evening, ensured that we were thoughtfully looked after. We appreciate their open kitchen as it shows us the professionalism, general process, and cleanliness by which our food is being prepared. Look forward to their amuse-bouche and the complimentary trolley-served sweet house-made confections they serve after your meals. True novelty!

My girlfriend and I decided to give this place to try checking the restaurant review was awesome!
Ms. Dyana Mae was fantastic. She was so friendly and attentive and made us feel so very comportable through our entire dining experience.
We ordered the mushroom soup,tartufate pasta and the Wagyu Ribeye Steak everything was delicious.
Like many review before us, our steak were truly cooked to perfection. It's so so hard to find placed that can pull off level. We are so happy to have our steak fully cooked yet soft and tender.
We definitely be back!
