) 5 Can never go wrong with Causeway! Love their dim sum, especially the assorted seafood. The servers are super nice too — always a pleasant dining experience.
4 Ordered the siu mai, chicken feet, shrimp rice rolls, and salt pepper spare ribs. The service was pretty great. Not even a minute since I placed my order, a cart came by to deliver us a steaming plate of siu mai and chicken feet. The siu mai was alright, not my favourite. It was pretty dense and dry, instead of plump and juicy. The chicken feet was good, the order came with 5 small feet, which is a good value. The shrimp rice rolls were decent. My only complaint is that the rice sheet was pretty thick, and the ratio of rice to shrimp felt a bit off. The highlight of the meal was the salt pepper spare ribs, which was one of the best I've had in Manila. Overall, I would return for the salt pepper spare ribs, and while the dim sum dishes weren't mind-blowing, it is priced fairly.
5 My friend celebrated his birthday here. I really like their dimsum! Plus, you can even bring your own drinks. You can still park there even after they’ve closed. So after eating, you can hang out around Timog and just leave your car. Highly recommended
5 During my recent visit to the Philippines, my family took me to the Causeway Seafood Restaurant in Quezon City, and it turned out to be a delightful culinary experience. This Chinese restaurant is renowned for its extensive and delectable dim sum selection, and it certainly lived up to its reputation. We were a large group of over 20 people, yet the restaurant staff managed to accommodate us seamlessly. The service was impressively fast; our food arrived so quickly that I barely had time to snap photos before diving in. It's a testament to their efficiency and dedication to providing an excellent dining experience. We ordered an array of dishes, each one more delicious than the last. The dim sum options were plentiful and mouth-watering, with everything from siomai to hakaw being served fresh and hot. Additionally, we indulged in buchi and almond jello lychee for dessert, which were perfect endings to our feast. The buchi had the perfect balance of sweetness and crunch, while the almond jello with lychee was light and refreshing. The ambiance of the restaurant was lively and welcoming, making it a great spot for family gatherings. Despite the busy environment, the staff remained attentive and courteous, ensuring our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. If you find yourself in Quezon City and are craving authentic Chinese cuisine, I highly recommend visiting Causeway Seafood Restaurant. Whether you're there for a quick bite or a large family gathering, you won't be disappointed by the food or the service.
5 We have been coming here since 2018 and I can’t believe I haven’t done a survey for this awesome restaurant. I must say, from the food to the service it’s excellent. From the minute you walk in staff are greeting you and walking you to your seat. A fresh hot tea is serve immediately. Food are serve as they become available so sometimes I would wait before devouring the protein before the fried rice or noddle dish comes out. All the dishes taste excellent and so is the price. We come here on a regular basis and I highly recommend this place for your Chinese food cravings.
4 At first we stopped because we have a chihuahua with us (inside the bag and quiet), then we decided to transfer or find another restaurant and suddenly the manager stop us. He decided that we can still eat there and he moved us upstairs which is that time is closed (no customers) its convenient for us because its a closed room and we are the only one uses it. The food was good its not salty and the quality is great. Only the their prices was quite expensive for normal families. Service was good as well we gave tip to the waiter and two security guards. All is good
4 Chicken feet - my mom loves this. she said it's tender 5/5 Siao Long Pao - bigger than most XLB i've tried but they're dry. taste is ok, not the best but definitely not the worst. 4.3/5 Soyed Chicken - the lack of soy is noticeable, both on the plate and the taste. chicken wasn't dry but it would have been mistaken as a regular roasted chicken if not for the tinge of soy taste you get - 3.7/5 Seafood roll - been getting this for years and never disappoints, but i wish the mushroom can be cut easily because i always end up opening up the roll just to cut it in half. the entire thing is too big to fit a mouth -5/5 Sharksfin dumpling - safe option -4.5/5 Buttered chicken - serves 2-3. chicken was fried well, but the butter looked like it was forgotten - 2.5/5
4 Our family’s Easter celebration wrapped up with a late lunch at Causeway, a traditional Chinese restaurant known for serving some of the best dim sum in the metro. The classic bean curd roll didn’t disappoint—though noticeably smaller than I remember from years ago. I went for my usual favorites: hakao and siomai. We also ordered Yang Chow fried rice, chop suey, and chicken in lemon sauce. Of course, hot tea was served as part of the experience. If you’re craving traditional dim sum, this place hits the spot. While we only ordered a few dishes, none particularly stood out beyond the usual favorites—they were good, just nothing extraordinary. Still, with so many Chinese dining options around, Causeway remains one of my top picks—especially over spots like North Park, David’s Tea House, or Hap Chan.
Many diners love their dim sum, especially the assorted seafood dim sum and chicken feet. The siu mai and shrimp rice rolls are also popular choices.
You can enjoy both quick bites from carts or have a more relaxed sit-down meal, as food is served as it becomes available and the service is attentive.
Yes, the restaurant accommodates groups well and even has private dining rooms, making it suitable for birthdays and other celebrations.
They provide wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, seating, and restrooms, plus free parking and high chairs for kids, ensuring a comfortable visit for all.
The place can get busy, especially during lunch and dinner, but since dim sum carts come by quickly, even a short visit can be enjoyable.
