Tasting menus in Manila, ranked by price

Every tasting menu we could verify a price for, from Yamazato's ₱15,800 sushi omakase down to a ₱2,900 Spanish set menu.

By What's On Manila editors

The most expensive tasting menu in Manila with a published price is the Tokusen sushi omakase at Yamazato in Hotel Okura Manila, at ₱15,800. Among the MICHELIN starred restaurants, the top price is ₱8,500, for the ten course menu at Kása Palma and the sixteen course menu at Linamnam. This list ranks every tasting menu we could verify from the most expensive down, and leaves out any restaurant whose price we could not confirm.

Updated October 2026.

The 2027 MICHELIN Guide is expected later this year. We will update this page as soon as it is announced, since new stars usually mean new menus and new prices.

How to read these prices

Each restaurant is ranked by its most expensive menu, with shorter menus noted in the same entry. Prices are as printed, and they are not all calculated the same way. Most add a 10% service charge to a price that already includes VAT; Benjarong prints net prices, which are all in; Mirèio and Cantabria print prices with ++, meaning service charge and tax are added. Where a listing does not say, we have not guessed.
