Found bracelets, a sari, a throw, and the required magnet souvenir. Just don't buy the first thing you see. Check every seller first, then go back to your favorites.
The best things that any Mary Grace has going for them are their ensaymadas and cheese rolls. However, their small food portions are too expensive and, not counting their very boring salads, they lack any good vegetarian options. Come here for their signature desserts, but don't expect to have a good meal.
Worst part: their most enticing veggie option, the veggie sandwich, was unavailable during my visit. If I hadn't been hungry, I would have left without ordering.

First visit and I'll definitely visit again.
The rest of my party had no complaints about their food so I guess they were satisfied.
I've been craving pastrami, so I ordered their Reuben Sandwich (yes, even though it's corned beef instead of sliced pastrami). It was delicious!
The only thing I would change the next time I order the sandwich is asking for the bread NOT to be toasted. I don't think toasted bread was specified in the menu, but either way, I wasn't paying that much attention. I'm just used to Reuben sandwiches being in soft, not toasted bread. Not their fault. Just my preference (the roof of my mouth is sensitive to rough textures). Again, though, the sandwich was delicious.
The service was amazing as well. I failed to get our server's name, but he was nice, quick, and attentive (whoever served us on April 5, 2024 around 12 pm, thank you)! That's all you can ask for from a server. He even accommodated my request to close the blinds (it was hot and the sun was reflecting off the car out the window).
I also had the iced barako latte and it was my first time trying ginumis (apparently, Visayan version of halo-halo, with coconut cream instead of milk). Both were amazing as well.
Can't wait to come back here. Maybe next weekend!
PS: It was so nice of them to preserve the tree in the middle of the dining area. 🌏💚🌿
