Kubong Sawali, as well as Zio's attached to it, serve really good comfort food for all! (Families, friend groups, couples, solo dining, etc.) Will definitely be returning for moreMe and my mum love to come back from time to time to order their Sizzling Beef Bulalo and try out the rest of their menu. The food is always so good! The servers are really friendly and personable. The place also holds some nostalgia for how Baguio was when I was growing up.

Upon reaching Baguio, we immediately looked for a breakfast spot and initially had a different choice but it was closed.Glad we landed at this place because not only the food was cheap, it was also cozy. We had tapa and longganisa breakfast plates. It came with drinks - could be coffee or iced tea.The place was clean including their restrooms. Cats roam free around.

Overall:Dining in “Kubong Sawali” was great. When you first walk in it feels like a local restaurant where you sit wherever you want. Once you are ready to order, theres a small switch button where you will need to flip it 2x for service. Then a waiter/waitress will take your order Its a great place to relax and eat some local cuisine! Also note they only accept “cash” no other payment method as stated by the restaurant. We will be back againFood: 9/10Service: 8/10Atmosphere: 10/10

At first impression we thought this was a beer house that only serves Filipino food, but to our surprise they also serve italian dishes. We would highly suggest their cheese pizza, vegetarian calzone and lasagna! Servings are huge as well.

It probably serves the best tasting bulalo. So flavorful. The restaurant serves traditional Filipino dishes. You shouldn't miss it while driving in the area. There is ample parking. There are table top signs that carry cute, hugot lines.
