About Cirkulo

Cirkulo has been delivering a fun take on tapas, sangrias, and mains since it opened its red round doors in 1995. Chef J. Gamboa maintains the favorite dishes that make this restaurant a top choice for group dining and celebrations. Their sinful sisig, the paella montaña, and their signature chocolate truffle cake constitute a party on your palate.

The signature dishes that Cirkulo is well known for are the Slow Roasted U.S. Beef Belly with horseradish cream sauce. For veggie lovers, they have the Paella Montaña with Portobella mushrooms, truffle oil, whole roasted garlic, and asparagus. Another dish worth mentioning is Cirkulo’s Cochinillo Asado, made with a Spanish-style suckling pig that’s ideal for groups of 10 to 15 people. Their menu is constantly updated to offer dishes inspired by Chef J. Gamboa’s travels.

For the architectural design of the restaurant, Upon entering its doors, Cirkulo evokes a cosmopolitan vibe with tones of black and red over the place. It has a classic, elegant, artful, and cozy ambiance. It also has a spacious area, and with great Spanish music playing in the background, it’s as if you’re in Spain all along.

The Manila's most popular restaurant, this is a staple in the food scene.

The food was good, but it is too costly for me. I would rather eat at their sister restaurant Milky Way or Tsukiji. There's no dress code. However they were accommodating us.

Cirkulo, an established restaurant that serves traditional spanish food, is a great place to start. You can expect to spend more but it is a high-quality restaurant. The best thing about Cirkulo is the roast beef belly and portabello mushroom paella.

A calm, adult Spanish restaurant. The Japanese cuisine is available. It is a great choice for business and expats.
