BAIBU
Japanese restaurant
Traditional Japanese craftsmanship meets the tropical paradise of El Nido. Fresh sushi, signature fusion rolls & rich ramen on Serena Street.
Authentic Craftsmanship in Paradise
BAIBU brings the art of traditional Japanese cuisine to the stunning shores of El Nido. In a world-famous island destination, we bridge the gap between centuries-old Japanese techniques and the vibrant tropical atmosphere of Palawan.
We adhere to the principle of Shun — using ingredients at their peak freshness. Our catch-of-the-day approach ensures every dish reflects the ocean's bounty, while imported Japanese essentials guarantee authentic flavors.
