Customers come for the sweeping Taal Volcano view and the relaxing, newly renovated space—bright lighting by day, twinkling lights by night. It’s a calming spot to linger over a drink while taking in the scenery, and it feels family-friendly without being noisy. Several folks mention smooth visits even on repeat meals, with the place feeling extra chill on weekdays.

Diners enjoy the familiar Gerry’s spread with generous portions, and the grilled pusit gets the most love. Bulalo is a natural Tagaytay pick; some diners mention the soup arriving less than piping hot, but staff are quick with refills that help. A few plates don’t land for everyone—sinigang can lean salty-sour, lumpia tastes mild, and calamares are tasty but smaller than expected. The free soup starter is a nice touch when the breeze kicks in.

Service is a standout thread across experiences—polite, quick, and genuinely attentive. Staff members get shout-outs by name: Ryan for being on-the-ball, Sir Mike for warm, kid-friendly hospitality, and Joseph and Jorel for outstanding table care, with manager Jaydee often noted for running a well-oiled, professional crew. Overall, diners feel they’re getting good value and memorable views; while a few dishes can miss the mark, the welcoming service and setting keep people coming back.
