Ka Lui Restaurant
Ka Lui is consistently rated the best restaurant in Puerto Princesa and one of the best in Palawan. This native-style restaurant serves a set Filipino seafood menu that changes daily based on the morning's catch. You eat at long communal tables on the floor (shoes off at the door).
The set menu typically includes grilled fish, kinilaw (Filipino ceviche), shrimp, vegetables, rice, and dessert. Everything is fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The dining hall itself is stunning: bamboo walls, high ceilings, and traditional decor.
Reservations are required and should be made at least a day in advance, especially in peak season. The restaurant fills up fast.
