First the place; nice informal spacious restaurant with comfy chairs excellent a/c (essential for those of us who normally live in cooler climates). Service very good.

I love Filipino food, but there can be a tendency for food to be what I would call over seasoned - not necessarily too salty, though that can be the case; but too much seasoning that one cannot appreciate the taste of the meat itself. Thankfully this was not the case for Rekado; while not all of the dishes were exceptional, every single one was good, and the presentation was good too.

While I am a meat eater, one in our group was veggie and we made an effort to order some veggie dishes. The 'four seasons' shown in photo went down very well, and I liked the tofu dish too. Re the meat dishes, I am generally not a fan of beef unless it's a steak, but the beef dish was very good.

We were supposed to try another restaurant but they were closed so we chanced upon this place by accident. It turned out to be a blessing. The place looks sleek and new and had a fair amount of guests. The menu featured Filipino comfort food but with a modern twist and presentation. What was amazing was that it was good too! Good value for money if I may add. Servers were quietly hovering around the tables. Will try it again next time we are in Davao.

Food was excellent - very tasty and not the typical Filipino fare. Presented really well too. Loved the turon dessert in the plancha

This restaurant is located near a strip where lots of restaurants are located. Rekado restaurant is owned by a husband and wife team that has been in the food business for several decades. Over the years, they have honed their business skill and have come up with an excellent restaurant. One of their signature dishes is a beef stew served in a cast iron skillet that was excellent. Melts in your mouth and the beef was not overpowered by the sauce and spices. Compliments to your chef!

Parking space is available behind the restaurant. Many clients seem to be frequent visitors to this restaurant - a sure sign that it is a good resto. The proprietress was there to chat with us. I really appreciate restaurants where the owner is not too busy to chat with you. It makes you feel really important.

the food is amazing. serves filipino cuisine in modern chic setting. service was quick, attentive and professional. parking space could be a bit tight but we were there when it was not too full.
