Surfin' Ribs

[norwindetalla]

---

Criticisms:
- Very hot. Felt like a microwave oven inside even if it was 8 in the evening. Outside felt cooler.
- Chili wings wasn't what I expected. Fried chicken dipped in sweet chili del monte sauce. KFC crispy chicken tasted better. Matching it with mayo dip will just worsen the stomach and make you feel "lo.od".
- BBQ Ribs seemed big because it was curving outwards. But when you topple it and try to examine it, it really is small. Another fine marketing strategy.
- This is the worst part: Crabs seemed to be too overpriced and I was expecting something more exquisite and not some plain ginger sauce. They removed the pincers so that they can sell is separately (great marketing strategy but not consumer wise a very big TSK3 and we were laughing sarcastically). AND Yes, you can yap around by saying it's fresh and imported but, really, sutukil can cook it better and provide a more affordable price.

PROs:
- Customer service was responsive

Overall Rating: 2/10

I was expecting to have a good Date here but, sadly, we just kept nodding our heads in frustration. We spent like 700+ just for two people and we ordered Crabs, Chili wings, BBQ Ribs, 3 extra rice and coke. I know it sounds a lot but to be plain honest gamay ra kaayu na as in. We wouldn't mind spending this much as long as it was satisfactory. Sadly, we had in order to loose the frustration we had to satisfy ourselves with dessert elsewhere.

Since this joint is still new in town I expect that you to learn form this criticisms. Not to worry, coz I will come back and test this place again to see if you have improved. If frustration cease to exist then expect me to bring my barkadas and office mates here.

ah mao ba... so i'll wait na lang sa sa mga new positive reviews if ever mo.improve pa cla...

my family and i dined there last week. i had their shrimp's platter, my wife was having their bobby j's crab, and my daughter ordered pete's ribs. overall, lami ilang food didtu. too bad dili available ilang claw pag adtu namo. i wish their ribs were much bigger like that of simply j's (which is a stone's throw away from where surfin ribs is located) - but baratu raman pud cya compared sa uban. daghan ang nangaon didtu - from all walks of life. daghan pud nag order for take out.

if they can maintain or improve their food quality, mo hit gyud ni sila sa mga cebuano kay wala bya mga kan-anan diri nga mo serve og crab aside anang mga restaurant, which ang masa ma taha og sud.

[dindinisms]

I want to try!! Permi man puno tga adto namu. Hehehe

Thanks for the review

Third Time's the Charm at Surfin' Ribs!
I'm always up for trying new restaurants here in Cebu and Surfin' Ribs has been on my radar for quite a while now. It's located along Escario street (where Flame It used to be).


Surfin' Ribs is packed!
Today must have been my lucky day because we finally got a table after two previous attempts. I guess we got there early enough to beat the ridiculous crowd.


Woot! We got a table!
The place filled up while we were waiting for our food, talk about perfect timing.


More people coming in...

Their Menu:

Bobby J's Spicy crab and Chili Wings next time!

Like them on Facebook, follow them on Twitter. LOL!

Tables with built in buckets! For Crab shells.
We couldn't pass up ordering their best seller: Pete's Ribs (159pesos with rice; 169pesos with mashed potatoes)! It's nice that they have two barbecue sauces you can choose from, original or spicy. We chose original, we'll try the spicy one next time. The ribs were great and their original barbecue sauce was very flavorful but quite overpowering if you don't spread it all over the ribs. I love that the meat comes off the bone easily...YUM! We ordered the one with mashed potatoes but decided to order extra rice because the ribs were quite huge and the mashed potatoes didn't quite do it for me. I found it a bit bland and dry.


Pete's Ribs
I was surprised to see a pasta dish on their menu and being the pasta person that I am, I just couldn't resist ordering their Baked Penne (89pesos). Served hot and fresh from the oven, this dish was creamy and very cheesy! Kids would definitely love this. I noticed that they didn't use ground pork or beef for their pasta sauce, it looked like ham and corned beef to me but I could be wrong.


Baked Penne
We had a great dining experience at Surfin' Ribs although it gets a little noisy when the restaurant is full (most of those who dine here come in groups). The staff were very polite and friendly too. This restaurant probably has the most affordable ribs in Cebu without scrimping on taste! If you're craving for that fall-off-the-bone goodness, you know where to go.


Chester's so happy. HAHA!
*Surfin’ Ribs is open from 11am-2pm and 5pm-10pm, Mondays through Saturdays (closes at 12mn on weekends).The place is pretty small and gets really packed so it would be wise to make a reservation ahead of time.
