Every meal tells a story—and at Uptown Bonifacio, those stories are served on every plate. The township’s newest collection of restaurants invites diners on a culinary journey where global techniques meet the warmth of Filipino hospitality.
Designed to captivate a new generation of adventurous and discerning food lovers, each dining destination highlights craftsmanship, bold flavors, and creative expression—transforming every visit into an experience worth savoring.
Here’s a closer look at the exciting new dining concepts now shaping Uptown Bonifacio’s vibrant culinary scene.
Ramen Ibuki
Ramen Ibuki arrives as a sanctuary for authentic Japanese ramen craftsmanship, led by Michelin-recognized Chef Takafumi Shimada. In collaboration with the Vikings Group, the restaurant introduces Chef Shimada’s flagship concept in the Philippines, bringing with it a refined approach to ramen that moves away from the heavier tonkotsu tradition.
Instead, Ramen Ibuki celebrates the delicate depth of seafood and poultry-based broths, allowing subtle layers of flavor to shine through. Every bowl reflects the essence of “real Japan,” crafted with house-made noodles and served in traditional Arita ware—an experience rooted in precision, heritage, and artistry.
Singular
Singular sets a new benchmark for culinary storytelling as the city’s exclusive destination for Chef Fernando Alcalá and the Bolero Group’s imaginative take on Spanish fine dining.
The restaurant’s tasting menu ventures through Spain’s lesser-known culinary regions, blending Moorish and Mediterranean influences into dishes layered with aroma, flame, and depth. Each course is thoughtfully paired with an illustrated card detailing the dish’s origin and inspiration, transforming the meal into a sensory narrative that invites diners to explore Spain’s rich gastronomic heritage.
Mijo Reserva
Mijo Reserva represents the refined evolution of Chef Enrique Moreno’s beloved Filipino-Spanish concept from Poblacion. This sophisticated new chapter focuses on Spanish-influenced wood-fire cooking, where smoke becomes a delicate and aromatic element that enhances each dish.
The space itself mirrors the restaurant’s warmth and vibrancy. Long communal tables encourage gatherings, while terracotta accents create an inviting atmosphere that shifts effortlessly from relaxed daytime dining to an energetic nightlife destination complete with curated music and an elevated bar experience.
Moderna
Moderna introduces a fresh perspective on cross-cultural cuisine with its elegant Italian-Filipino concept by the Al Dente Food Group. Leading the kitchen is Italian chef Donatello Montrone, whose culinary philosophy honors traditional Italian techniques while embracing the bold character of Filipino ingredients.
The menu spans from handcrafted pastas and artisanal pizzas to premium steaks and seafood dishes, subtly enhanced with local spices, native produce, and inspired reinterpretations of Filipino flavors. Moderna officially opens its doors on March 10, adding another exciting chapter to Uptown Bonifacio’s evolving dining landscape.
Amici
Amici’s journey began as a humble community café founded by the Salesians of Don Bosco, and over the years it has grown into one of the country’s most cherished Italian dining spots.
Known for its comforting pizzas, flavorful pastas, and signature desserts, Amici continues to celebrate authentic Italian recipes served in a warm, welcoming environment. At Uptown Bonifacio, diners will soon experience the same sense of homegrown hospitality and timeless culinary tradition that has made Amici a household favorite.
Cargo Fish
Cargo Fish returns with a revitalized look, bringing new energy to its signature seafood dining experience. While the space has been refreshed with a modern aesthetic, the restaurant continues to deliver the bold flavors that made it a favorite among seafood lovers.
Opening soon, guests can once again indulge in fresh ceviche, perfectly grilled fish, and creative seafood platters—now enjoyed in a reimagined setting that blends comfort, style, and vibrant culinary flair.
From the first comforting sip of dashi to the final shared plate of pasta, Uptown Bonifacio’s dining scene has never been more exciting. With diverse culinary concepts and world-class chefs bringing their craft to the table, your next unforgettable food adventure is waiting right here.
