Potions Grill and Restobar Now Grilling in Metro Davao

A new-found place for food enthusiasts to share their gastronomic adventure in the best of both worlds can offer, a fusion of food, wine and music located at Plaza de Bole, F.Torres St., Davao City.








Potions Grille and Restobar have its soft opening early on December 2015, as a bar and karaoke at night. But this time they want to cater the people of Davao in all walks of life, serving them sumptuous fusion dishes from lunch, snacks and dinner.




And the Davao Digital Influencers, Inc. a group of media, bloggers, microbloggers and vloggers were very pleased to be invited last August 4, 2016 for Food Tasting and and at the same time to have Foodtography of their different dishes to post it online as part of promotions.

PLACE  ★★★☆☆ 

They have 1 small conference room. Good for 15-20 persons.

The ambiance is good, but the place is small. I think they need to have two separate comfort rooms to cater the people in the conference/private room and those who are in the dining area itself.


Main Dining Area

The perfect ambiance to a restaurant like this aside from the quality of the food served that can influence a customers to come back is to have a good music and beautiful surroundings, and also pay attention to lighting too!

The best staff I've ever encountered in a food industry. Though the food preparation make us all wait, we don't mind it as long as we get a good SERVICE and great FOOD! Kudos to you all!

FOOD ★★★★★

While waiting for the main course, an hors d'oeuvre or an appetizers was served.


  • Bilbao, the taste is spicy, salty and a little raw just too similar to pepperoni.
  • Kimchi - a traditional Korean side dish made of a cabbage with a variety of seasoning. Too spicy but well tolerated.
  • Sweet Crispy Potato - or in Filipino term "KAMOTE". Very sweet but it is to hard to bite it!
  • Sweet Banana - I love this appetizer, it is a "SABA" well mix with coconut milk and sweet tapioca. It taste like the Che Chuoi in Vietnam.   



Hungarian Sausage, Kimchi, Sweet Crispy Potato and Sweet Banana

JAPANESE CUISINE


  • Fire Salmon Sushi - I could taste the fire from the grill on the outside, while the rawness inside melted in my tongue. The sushi was so fresh and chewy. So delicious!



Fire Salmon Sushi - P189


  • California Maki - the famous Japanese sushi roll that is also called the makizushi by the Japanese. Containing the Japanese rice, crab meat and a ripe mango and sprinkled with tobiko. What I love with their California Maki, the rice itself is well-cooked and the mango use is not over ripe that when you taste it is still fresh and not "nakakaumay" (to get tired of).


California Maki - P179

KOREAN CUISINE


  • Kimchi Jigae Pork -  a spicy Korean stew made with fermented kimchi, and some fatty pork belly and tofu. The most-loved of all stews in Korean cuisine.

Kimchi Jigae Pork Soup - P190


  • Gamjatang Soup - a pork bone soup. It is another Korean traditional nutritious soup.
Gamjatang - P250

MAIN COURSE good for 3 to 4 person
  • Lechon Kawali - the famous Filipino pork belly dish simmer and deep fry to achieve the golden crispiness and smooth chewy meaty goodness inside. A delicacy that Filipino loved! 



Lechon Kawali - P250

  • Barbeque Back Ribs - you must love this BBQ Back Ribs. The sauce itself really give good chewy-tender texture to the meat. Promise you're going to ask for more, it will change the way you taste meaty goodness!
BBQ Back Ribs - P800

  • Seafood Special - mouthwatering seafood dishes, including prawns, squids, fish added with the condiments/seasoning to balance your palate. 


Seafood Special - P800

MAIN COURSE served with rice
Spicy Fried Chicken - P189

Pork Cutlet - P189

Fish Cutlet - P179


Because they start as a bar, they also serve cocktail drinks which is very refreshing that will slake your thirst!

  3. Everything looks good. The Baby Back Ribs & the Seafood Special seem to be perfect for mini get-togethers. I like that Potions Grill & Restobar have a function room. This usually is a plus for restaurants.

  8. Based on the picture, the place does look simple. However, your 5-star rating of the food is the most important! They are about to be a year old, and good to see they are going strong.
