La Terrasse

Top choice in Puerto Princesa


This is a sophisticated open-air dining room with a small menu of pasta, seafood and grilled or stewed meats (including duck rendang). Attention is paid to organic and locally sourced ingredients. Palawan oysters are available by the dozen.

There are sandwiches for a light snack, and it serves Palaweño Brewery craft beer by the bottle.
