We had the Stuffed Chicken Breast & the Pork Sisig. Both tasted so good! For dessert we had the apple blueberry pie which was served warm with ice cream & fruit. Would definitely come back if it wasn’t so far from New Jersey.
Ate here twice during our Franz Josef stay. Unique and tasty food. We had the Palobok, Pork Adobo, Sisig and Bagnet, and they were all good. Especially loved the Sisig and Adobo. Friendly staff, great service and the food arrived promptly.
The food was delicious and good value, had fish n chips (I know not very adventurous but what I fancied) beautifully cooked and presented. Dessert was also great. It was quiet (only 4 tables being served) food arrived quickly but still a bit difficult to get the wait staffs attention for follow up service
What a gem of a place this is! The salmon dish was cooked to perfection and the seafood palabok exceeded all expectations. Wonderful friendly attentive service with food delivered less than 10 minutes after ordering. Furnishings are modern and comfortable. Highly recommended.
An interesting menu with a mix of Filipino and standard Western food. We tried the sisig and seafood palabok, which were both tasty.
Quick service. Fairly expensive, but it's a tiny town after all.
The best lamb shank. The food was amazingly delicious . The menu has a great variety and very reasonably priced. The service was fantastic. Absolutely recommend.
On our first night in Franz Josef, our small group of seven was a bit late to the game as far as dinner plans. A few of the restaurants right in the small "downtown" were packed, so I ran up the road a bit to check to see if Blue Ice was still open. There were no outdoor diners so my expectations of availability were low, but upon entering, the manager (I confess that I never got his name), was quite welcoming and warmly stated that they would still serve us.
I ran back down, got the group to follow, and what ensued was a lovely, relaxed dinner for the seven of us which included great food, friendly and fast service, and (most importantly), a sense that we did NOT have to rush out. I cannot recall exactly what I ordered, but as a vegetarian, I was able to secure a healtful meal along with stellar red wine...and that is what matters most!
Thank you so much to the (unnamed) manager who turned what could have been a disaster into a memorable evening for all seven of us!!!
Elite dining experience.
Well beyond my expectations dining for one.
From the moment I walked thru the door I was overly impressed by the stylish decor and lavish setting.
Greeted by friendly staff who welcomed me with an extensive menu offering a great selection of gluten free options and exquisite beverage variety.
This followed by delicious mouth watering dishes exotic cocktails and exceptional service made this breath taking experience superb.
Had dinner here , came early and there wasn’t a crowd. We ordered a beef ribeye steak and a pork adobo. Was pleased with the choice of some Filipino cruisine which I haven’t had for a long time. The beef steak was nicely done and came with decent sides. The Adobo was quite tasty and authentic. All in a great place to dine here at Franz Josef.
Unsuspecting, and not necessarily what you’d think as you can see a bar and pool table upstairs, but superb nonetheless… a really nice place, great service, quaint layout and very very tasty food.
We had the Camembert Parcel, Gnocchi, garlic bread and NZ Fillet (extremely tender and flavourful), the pics are the steak and garlic bread and what was left of the gnocchi 😂
Highly recommend!
