In summer, we went to Guevarra's -commonly known as 'Chef Lau'- for a lunch date; a buffet date! So we had to ready our tummies. It was a treat by my husband's friend. All of us were excited to go there not just for the food but also for the place itself. It used to be an ancestral house turned into a restaurant. Plus, Chef Lau is one of the youngest and best chefs in the Philippines.
We came early, around 10.30am, so we had to wait for half an hour :) As expected, a lot of patrons were there since it was a Saturday.
Good thing they have a little garden (grounds).
and a sofa (at the entrance), too.
With golden plates just right above you. (Oh earthquakes!)
I wasn't able to get much picture inside since she was cranky.
But as you can readily see in the picture below, Spanish design accents all over the building. There were different halls in the restaurant. Each has historic name. Historic "Mabini" surname was posted on the first hall (right)
I'm not sure if you can reserve a particular hall.
Hispanic Ambience- I say 'Hispanic' because it reminds me of Americanized Spanish buildings.
Delicious Filipino Cuisine- Except that I was looking for more variety. Dessert was extra special
Just Price- Affordable on weekdays. Prices are slightly higher on weekends and holidays.But given it's buffet, I would say eating there is worth it.

Enough Parking Space- You won't have a hard time finding one since guards can assist you. And the area is relatively big.

Its location is not that accessible unless you have your own car, or would brave heavy traffic (at times) with your taxi meter running.
...But a good place for family affairs. They collect no payment for infants :) (much better than Tramway) So my 1 year-old daughter ate a lot of dessert for FREE.
