"We ate lunch here as we had business at St. Luke's. Restaurant was busy, but no wait as it was after the lunch hour. They have a varied menu and breakfast is served any time. Service was fast and very friendly. The food was ok, it just seems to lack salt seasoning, maybe that's because it's in a hospital, I don't know. But adding salt definitely improved the taste. Restaurant is a little on the expensive side."

"Located at the ground floor in front of Starbucks. Dining area is big enough but can be full during lunch break. Food is good for me, but a bit pricey. I think all the Restaurants inside St. Lukes BGC is expensive. My usual order here is their Arrozcaldo and fresh lumpia. Serving size already got smaller compared to several years ago. They have restroom inside. The staffs are polite, though during lunch time, you might need more patience, serving time of order can take longer than usual. Parking can always be full, except on Sundays because most doctors don't have Sunday clinic schedule. If you came here for a check up, be sure to let the Doctor's secretary validate your parking ticket to get a discount."

"Always a great experience when eating here at Via Mare St. Luke's Medical Center BGC. The staff are very helpful and accommodating - Nell, Mico, Michael, Ron, Chris, Jepoy and Cherry are always our reliable partners. Food is consistently good and at the highest standards when served to us. Will always pick Via Mare SLMC BGC for top tier food & service!"

"Nice dining option while in between scheduled tests at St. Luke’s Hospital. Most of the time it’s fully occupied. Even the waiting time took longer with follow-ups (almost an hour). The food was good though. I was able to try their version of bibingka which was different from what I was used to (in Mindanao). And as a party of three we shared the Shooters."

"I was really pleased that in the first place CVM is available there and that you don't need anymore to leave or to go out from the hospital building. And inside, it was very relaxing, the brightness helps you to see its pleasing ambience and cleanliness. The food is delicious, i liked the rice and the sinigang na hipon. And worth the money. My daughter liked it too."

"The crispy tapa is salty and tiny, not good value. Service is attentive but no smiles. Tables are big and seating on plastic chairs are not bad."
