    Found a place the other day with pretty decent burgers. If you're going north on Flores, just after you pass by Hayahay keep going straight along the ocean. After just a short distance you will see this new center that is just constructed on the left. There are a few shops there, and a Mafioso restaurant that just opened (they still have a limited soft opening menu). Across the parking lot from Mafioso, back in the corner (and apparently owned by the same people that own Mafioso) there is a little place called Food Rehab that specializes in burgers. They have quite an assortment, bacon cheese, mushroom, Hawaiian, I had what was called the "What the Truck" burger. It was huge, covered with chili, and served in a cast iron skillet. It's a small little place, if you didn't know about it you would probably never find it, but if you're craving for a good burger I would recommend checking it out.

    There was one in downtown - did you ever go there and, if so, what did you think of it?

    I like Mafioso. Had a local steak for around P300 and it was very tasty and tender.

    I have tried the downtown Mafioso and I do think it's nice, I liked the ambience of the place and the food was well above average, parking there is very difficult though. With this new Mafioso there is no parking problem at all, which to me is worth a couple of extra minutes drive. It looks like this new one will also have a second story seating section which will have a very nice view, but they haven't opened that part up yet.

    Tried Food Rehab, we thought it was better than most but not as good as a few others.

    I tried it with a few friends. It is convenient and tasty if u live north of the river. I still like Lord byrons as my hamburger go to...but this resto is south of the river so don't go there often

    Was going to go to Food Rehab yesterday. Mafioso was open so decided to try that one. Had the BBQ Rib with fries. Portion size is small, one rib, and comes with spicy BBQ sauce. Fries are unsalted but seasoned with pepper. Wife had shrimp, six pieces, with rice. We are not big eaters so it wasn't to bad. Was a soft opening menu so no dessert to offer. Service was good, view is good, and nice music not to loud. If you are a big eater you will probably be disappointed. Maybe some growing pains. Will be trying some other places there as others are beginning to look like they will open eventually.
