Start your weekend right with the Seafood Buffet at L’fisher’s Ripples Restaurant

Buffets? Eat all you can?  Do you want a change from a certain Nordic Restaurant in SM?  Try L’fisher’s Ripples Restaurant and their awesome weekend buffets!

Ripples Restaurant has two very special buffets on Fridays and Saturdays.  We went on a Friday for their Heart of the Sea – Seafood buffet and we enjoyed everything!

 

 

Their dinner buffet starts at 6pm but as early as 530 pm people are coming in to get seats. There’ s a lot of awesome dishes on display.  Our attention was drawn to a spectacular fruit carving with heaps of delicious seafood arranged attractively around it.

There’s a salad section which also holds the sushi and sashimi section.  Ripples Restaurant has really good tuna sashimi – you could taste the clear, fresh flavor of the tuna.  They also have Maguro Tuna as well as tamagoyaki and maki rolls.

There’s also a tempura station where the chefs are busy preparing freshly cooked tempura and deep fried calamari. They fry your tempura right in front of you – fresh, hot tempura – the taste is indescribable!

The service at Ripples was fantastic.  The staff was friendly and kept offering to refill our drinks, clear our plates, etc.  We also fortunate to catch a bit of live entertainment as there was an excellent female singer performing in the lobby.  Great Ambiance!  I also loved that my guests and I didn’t have to compete with other diners over premium menu items such as shrimp tempura and other treats – they were quickly refilled by the staff.

After checking out the salad and tempura section we went off to check out their main dishes.  Ripples made a huge selection of dishes available and there were also a couple of non seafood items such as roast beef and chicken – perfect for those who want a little bit of variety.

There was also a lovely dessert table filled with delicious desserts. But since it was placed in a darker area, I didn’t notice the table until the very end of our dinner (when I was almost full.)

We loved the tiny chocolates filled with cream! We loved the creme brulee and slices of cheesecake.

 

These are just a few of the many pictures I took of Ripples restaurant’s seafood buffet.  We had an enjoyable dinner – no crowds, no frantic scrambling for food. Everything was just perfect.

Here’s the things I loved about Ripples Restaurant

1. Quick and efficient staff
2. Live entertainment – this was in the lobby but we had a view of the performers from our table
3. Fresh seafood – You could really taste how FRESH the seafood was.  The Quality of the food was higher than a certain nordic restaurant in SM.
4. Good variety of dishes
5. Awesome desserts – the desserts were fantastic, higher than a certain nordic restaurant.
6. Good Atmosphere – Less frantic, less competition/fighting over food… Quick refills.
7. Philippine style ice cream.

Give Ripples Restaurant a try!  This is a very good place to have a buffet. If you miss the Friday buffet, don’t worry – they also have a good buffet on Saturdays!  Call ahead for reservations.   There’s a DRESS CODE but it’s very basic – no slippers, sando…
