Tadhana Makati
Our verdict
Tadhana Manila is a strong special-occasion pick if you want contemporary Filipino cooking in a formal tasting-menu format rather than a casual à la carte dinner. The draw is the extended, chef-led structure, intimate room, and serious beverage direction; skip it for large groups, children, outdoor seating, or diners who need broad menu flexibility.
