A Slice of Bali in Cebu
Tucked inside Hadsan Beach Park in Maribago, Lapu-Lapu City, Isla Hadsan brings a Bali-inspired beachside dining experience to Cebu. It has an open-air dining setup which sets the stage for a relaxed ambiance, making it perfect for unwinding with friends or romantic sunset dinners. Picture yourself enjoying fresh air, golden sunsets, and the gentle lull of the waves—all while indulging in delicious Filipino cuisine.
James Manalo, the Executive Assistant for Marketing of Isla Hadsan, shared that the restaurant was designed to blend great food with the tranquil charm of the ocean, “Isla Hadsan is a Bali-inspired restaurant where you can enjoy delicious food while watching the sunset.”
Must-Try Flavors (Not Your Usual Adobo)
Isla Hadsan is all about celebrating Filipino flavors with a seafood-forward menu. Their must-try dishes include the Ocean Basket, a Cajun-spiced seafood feast featuring shrimp, crab, and mussels, served with buttered corn and best paired with rice. This dish is perfect for seafood lovers looking to savor fresh catches infused with bold flavors.
Another standout is the Adobong Rabbit, a high-protein, low-fat alternative to chicken that has won over even the most skeptical diners. “Our guests were initially hesitant to try rabbit meat,” Lieda Evangelista, Isla Hadsan’s Store Manager, admits. “But once they did, they loved it. It’s tender, flavorful, and a great alternative to traditional meats.” The dish stays true to Filipino adobo flavors while offering something unique for adventurous foodies.
A favorite among kids, the Chicken Fingers with Garlic Ranch are crispy, golden, and perfectly seasoned. Pair these with their IC Lemon Grass Iced Tea for a refreshing and detoxifying drink that complements the flavors of the dishes.
