Originally established at Cubao Expo in 2012, Sweet Ecstasy was founded by Monica Tobias and Al Galang, who were inspired by the burgers they grew up with in Queens, New York, and San Diego, California. They opened the restaurant to recreate the classic American burgers they missed while living in the Philippines.

Today, Sweet Ecstasy continues to serve its signature burgers and comfort food across multiple branches, including its Makati location.
Just like some other burger joints, they have secret burgers that you can order, although you need to make sure to follow and check their social media accounts to see what they are.
