Oh Cebu, Cebu. What can I say about such a terrible thing as Everything at Cebu. The food is an absolute deliciousness. There's no way you will be able to save money. Every bite made me think about when I will come back to dine here. Forget about any diet. Even the salads are too good. Worst of all they serve you fresh , warm bread with an insanely delicious sauce. How could they, I'm trying to lose weight here. No the bar: I had the spicy ginger margarita and it too damn good. I can go broke ordering more and more because you just want more. And the service. Boy oh boy. Everyone was friendly and they gave water to my dog without me even asking. Don't come here. It's too good . You will end up ordering everything and more and keep coming back.

Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was far from satisfactory. both the chicken Parmesan and penne vodka dishes fell short of expectations. The chicken lacked flavor and the pasta wasn't cooked to perfection. Moreover, the prices were unjustifiably high for the subpar quality of the food. Overall, I found the restaurant overpriced and overrated.

This place is beautiful and the service is friendly. There are tiki torches, indoor and outdoor dining. The food is pricey, but fresh and delicious. I like their raw clams, fish sandwiches and mini champagne bottles. This is a great place to eat with family and with friends. My Mother and I had a great time here.

Yelp keeps asking me to finish a review of Cebu so I suppose I will even though I haven't eaten there in a few years now. I did eat there quite a few times but I finally gave up after having so many terrible experiences with service and management I just decided to give up. It's probably been a good 4 years now since I've set foot in the place. I don't know if the same host or maitre 'd is still there but I've never received such terrible treatment. I was there one night with friends and the service was just dreadful. We sat forever while everyone around us who was sat long after us got their food and drinks. I finally spoke to one guy who identified himself as one of the owners and he ended up comping the entire check for food and drinks including buying us several desserts so I did come back and give it a few more tries. I don't know what happened to him. Service never did improve. Went back for brunch on my birthday they sat us in the back room, the place was empty. Didn't turn on the lights. Basically ignored us until the place filled up a big more. Seemed like they couldn't wait to get rid of us. Tried one more time after that, sat outside, the waiter didn't seem like he wanted to take care of us. Everything was wrong with the food, the drinks. The same host maitre 'd came over offered us a discount if we came back. I just said keep it, give us our check and we paid and left. Never went back. So there you go, Yelp wanted me to finish the review! Hope that helps.

We had a holiday party you couldn’t hear any music in the back room. The food was alright not too bad but the waitress attending us was rather rude when we asked question about food and didn’t want to take a holiday picture for

I came to CEBU as a recommendation from one of my associates from Brooklyn. I live in Cape May New Jersey. I drove here to experience a truly Brooklyn outside restaurant.Olivia was our server. I told her I would be for a couple of days. She gave me a list of must sees while I was in the neighborhood. The second best time I have ever experienced. Don’t pass up this fine place. Ask for Olivia!!!!!! Definitely ten stars.Parking: Always go for valet in Brooklyn

Last week I celebrated my birthday at Cebu and everything was excellent. I don’t know where to start because everything was really good; my guests and I got a warm welcomed from the owner Mike, and the staff is super kind and attentive. For appetizers we ordered Steak skewers, lollipop wings, short rib buns, whipped ricotta, fried calamari, oysters, and meat and cheese antipasto. For my main course I had the braised short ribs and it was fantastic. I highly recommend this place, you won’t get disappointed.
