The restaurant features dishes inspired by the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, India, and China. Their menu highlights the harmony of flavors that Asian cooking is known for—combining spices, herbs, and fresh ingredients to create dishes that are both flavorful and nourishing. With many herbs and spices like chili, coriander, mint, kaffir lime leaves, and basil grown in-house, each dish reflects careful preparation and authenticity.

Set against a stunning sea view with a naturally breezy atmosphere, Tan-aw Restaurant creates a relaxed dining space that perfectly complements its vibrant menu.

Tan-aw Restaurant is also known for using locally sourced ingredients which are mostly prepared in an open kitchen, ensuring freshness in every bite. This commitment to quality, paired with a diverse selection of dishes, keeps both locals and tourists—especially divers coming from the nearby waters—coming back for more.

Among their most popular dishes is the Red Hot Chicken Curry (Php 270), which is their take on Indian curry, made with local ingredients, red curry powder, and a generous kick of chili for a rich and spicy flavor.
