Where to Dine Next: Uptown Bonifacio’s New Culinary Destination
Every meal can be an experience, a story waiting to be tasted. Uptown Bonifacio’s newest collection of restaurants invites guests to explore culinary storytelling at its finest, where global techniques meet Filipino hospitality. Each space serves as a showcase for craft, flavor, and imagination, designed to captivate a new generation of curious, discerning diners.
Ramen Ibuki
Ramen Ibuki arrives as a sanctuary of craft with the renowned artistry of Michelin-recognized Japanese Chef Takafumi Shimada. In partnership with the Vikings Group, Chef Takafumi’s flagship restaurant in the country moves away from heavy tonkatsu to focus on the clarity and flavor of seafood and poultry-based broths.
Every bowl is a showcase of "real Japan," utilizing house-made noodles and traditional Arita ware to deliver a dining experience rooted in Japanese precision and craftsmanship.

Singular
Singular defines a new culinary landmark, officially launching as the city’s sole destination for Chef Fernando Alcalá and the Bolero Group’s untraditional take on Spanish fine dining. Their tasting menu, guided by Chef Fernando's roots, moves across Spain’s lesser-known culinary landscapes, infusing Moorish and Mediterranean influences through dishes layered with aroma, flame, and essence.
With a strong emphasis on storytelling, each course is accompanied by an illustrated card that traces the dish’s origin and intent, turning the meal into both a sensory and reflective journey.

Mijo
Mijo Reserva is the sophisticated evolution of Chef Enrique Moreno’s modern Filipino-Spanish kitchen, marking a more mature and refined chapter for the beloved Poblacion original. The restaurant distinguishes itself through a disciplined focus on Spanish-influenced wood-fire cooking, where smoke is treated as a subtle, aromatic layer.
Featuring long tables for gathering and warm terracotta accents, the space transitions from an intimate bistro for leisurely lunches into a vibrant nightlife destination shaped by music and a high-end bar area.
