Taking pride in offering good service and good food, breakfast at Antonio’s is not just a restaurant; it has become one of the most recognizable culinary institutions in Tagaytay City. No wonder its entrance is lined with vehicles and its parking lot full.
It provides a menu that features local and international bistro grubs, sweets, and its signature all-day breakfast selections.
We don’t often come here on a whim or when we’re craving something because it’s on the expensive end of the spectrum, but the team likes to indulge every once in a while. Our newest visit was in February 2021 during the busy lunch hours on a weekday. This short article shares our recent dining experience under MGCQ status and follows the “new normal” safety guidelines and protocols.

When is the best time to go?
Because of its popularity, you might need to wait in line to be served. If you are going to on weekends and holidays, it’s highly recommended to visit early in the morning as they do not take table reservations.
Once, my friends and I had breakfast here around past 7AM, so we got no problem finding a table with a good view from the veranda (covered deck).
On our last visit, we arrived at around 11AM and we didn’t have to wait that long either.

We tried commuting, but that was before the pandemic. We have not yet traveled through public transportation to and around Tagaytay because the pandemic.
Is there a designated parking area?
Áno! There’s one in front and one at the back.
There’s a ramp on the side leading to the side and behind the restaurant building. However, the slots run out fast during weekends, holidays, and top hours (meal times). Sometimes, vehicles park on the side of the road. Come earlier for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if you can.

Where is the best spot?
Breakfast at Antonio’s has both an alfresco dining area and an indoor dining area. If you want to dine and commune with nature, the garden alfresco area is the best spot for you. but if you choose dining inside yet still want to view the outdoors, the areas near the huge windows or the veranda are recommended. note that the windows have protective screens to avoid bugs and insects from entering the dining area and the vegetation and foliage are also lush, so the view might be obstructed.
If you happen to visit during top hours, those areas might be occupied already.
What can we expect from the menu?
As discussed before, the restaurant is not only limited to serving breakfast. It is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. aside from the rice meals and all-day breakfast options, it also provides options like salads, sandwiches, pizzas, pasta dishes, burgers, and beverages (hot, cold, alcoholic, non-alcoholic, coffee, and non-coffee).
Breakfast at Antonio’s is also understood for its freshly-baked bread, homemade dips and sauces, cold cut selections, and chocolate sheets/blocks.
The Chef’s top picks are Burrata Salad with Honey Garlic Kaffir, Chorizo, and Grilled Angus Prime Ribeye. Our team had the Mayura Housemade Beef Burger and Fresh Corned Beef. other breakfast favorites are Bistek and Longganisa with Japan-style seasoned vinegar rice.
Mayura Housemade Beef Burger. This burger meal includes fresh potato chips. For the burger, we selected caramelized onions and additional cheddar cheese. The beef patty was juicy and savory. The bread/bun alone was soft and tasted good! We love the very generous serving of potato chips and a huge serving of burger. two people can share this meal.
Fresh Corned Beef. This is one of the bestsellers. The one served to us was so soft and juicy. We selected to partner it with over-easy eggs. I can still actually taste the soft beef strands while typing this sentence. :p
Oh, we also had ice cream! We got Banana with Caramelized White chocolate and Rocky road flavors.
The restaurant has a shop where you can purchase homemade sauce, jams, curds, cold cuts, and freshly-baked bread.
