Ah, the joy of unexpected culinary adventures! Our latest escapade led us to Uncle Ger’s, a seafood restaurant in the heart of Sum-ag, Bacolod City.

Our culinary journey commenced after CG treated his car to a wash, and they swung by my gallery, the Jojo Vito Designs Gallery, to pick me up around 1 PM. Finding our way was a breeze, all thanks to Dennis Lo and Sigrid Lo, both Bacolod Bloggers, for sharing their story and providing us with directions. The place is conveniently situated at Bangga San Miguel, Brgy. Sum-ag (Near Metro Supermarket), Bacolod City, Philippines.

All You Can Seafood Extravaganza at Uncle Ger’s Seafood Restaurant: 333.00/pax

The place caters to both à la carte preferences and an irresistible all-you-can-eat seafood feast priced at just 333.00/pax. Envision a generous serving brimming with an assortment of shells, crabs, squid, potatoes, corn, and even chicken sausage. Now, let me be candid—I’m no culinary connoisseur, but I detected a subtle hint of paprika that bestowed a delightful, smoky flavor, elevating the overall dining experience. However, it’s worth noting that the paprika infusion might not appeal to those with a distaste for its distinctive taste.

Adding a playful touch to the meal, the resto presents this seafood bounty using a stainless spade, directly from the cauldron. While plastic gloves are provided for a mess-free experience, we willingly embraced the tactile adventure. In truth, simplicity is key for me when indulging in shells and crabs—a nod to Uncle Ger’s dedication to delivering freshness and flavor.

Uncle Ger’s Seafood Restaurant | Friendly Service Amidst a Scenic Setting: Beside the Sum-ag River

The waitstaff of the resto deserves a round of applause – friendly, accommodating, and skilled at capturing those memorable dining moments on camera. The restaurant’s location beside the Sum-ag River adds a refreshing breeze to the dining experience, offering a pleasant atmosphere that complements the seafood extravaganza.

Now, let’s address the elephant in the room – the place isn’t exactly fancy. There’s room for improvement, and perhaps a touch of refurbishment could elevate the overall dining ambiance. During our visit, we spotted a mix of locals, foreigners sipping on beers, and families enjoying a casual meal. The diversity added a charming layer to the overall experience.

Uncle Ger’s Seafood Restaurant | Areas for Improvement: More Crabs, Squid, and a Bit of Refinement

To be straightforward, there are a couple of things that could be a bit better. The seafood dish was great, but it would’ve been nice to have more types of crabs and squid. It had a lot of scallops and green mussels. However, the seafood was fresh and good, and the prices were reasonable.

One thing to note is that sometimes there was a pause during the busiest time of eating, which could be a bit annoying. Imagine your hands all messy with sauce, and there’s no more food on your plate. Despite these small things, overall, it was a good dining experience.

A Heartfelt Thank You to CG Hisona: STL Winner and Constant treat-giver

May the STL winnings keep coming, and may our taste buds continue to savor these delightful culinary escapades.
