    The service was impeccable, from Marcos with his menu suggestions and knowledge of the restaurant, to the sommelier helping us choose the wine, to Guillermo the waiter who also contributed greatly with his recommendations and attention, to the entire staff.

    No consistent server, never saw the same person more than once through 2 hour dinner - meal was off due to inconsistent flow. Only disappointment of the hotel so far.

    Brings you home to the Philippines and more. What an elevating experience. The maximalist ambience complements the minimalistic yet rich dining experience, sprinkled with the familiar hospitality treatment hardwired in our DNA. Salamat.

    This is my third visit to PAO, and although it is on the pricier side, the overall experience is well worth it. The flavors and uniqueness of the dishes rank among the best I've encountered.

    Das Essen war ausgezeichnet. Die Fois Gras Macaraons eine veritable Drei-Stern-Delikatesse (mit entsprechendem Preis). Sehr netter und liebevoller Service. Wir sassen draussen; drinnen wäre es uns zu laut und zu kalt.
