OpenRice: Your New Dining Companion in Manila

Manila’s dining landscape has never been busier. With thousands of restaurants spread across the metro—from hidden mom-and-pop gems to fine-dining icons—it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when deciding where to eat. That’s exactly where OpenRice steps in, transforming the way Filipinos discover, enjoy, and share their food experiences.

Born in Hong Kong in 1999, OpenRice has grown into Asia’s leading dining platform, now spanning eight countries, including the Philippines. In its 25 years, it has evolved from a simple restaurant directory into a full-fledged lifestyle app—helping users search, book, review, and even earn rewards along the way.

A Smarter Way to Choose

With 19,000+ restaurants in Metro Manila alone, OpenRice gives users the power to search smarter. Whether you’re craving authentic ramen in Makati, a rooftop bar in BGC, or a cozy family spot in Quezon City, the app’s advanced filters make it simple to narrow down choices. For those who want a more immersive peek, you can even search by video to get a feel of the dining atmosphere before stepping inside.

Skip the Wait

Gone are the days of long lines and uncertain reservations. OpenRice connects users directly to over 150 partner restaurants—and counting—for instant table bookings with exclusive in-app perks. Partner establishments include favorites like Antonio’s, Single Origin, Le Feu Steakhouse, and Shi Lin, with more names joining every week.

Share and Inspire

But OpenRice isn’t just about searching and booking—it’s also a platform for food lovers to connect. Diners can post reviews, upload photos, or even share short videos of their meals. Each contribution helps fellow users uncover new dining spots and avoid disappointments, creating a trusted community of eaters who speak from experience.

Dine and Earn

What makes OpenRice even more rewarding is its partnership with GoRewards. By linking accounts, users can collect points for every booking or review—up to 6 points per seat and 8 points for first-time reviews. It’s a way of turning every meal into both a memory and a reward.

 

As Manila’s food scene continues to grow, OpenRice positions itself as the ultimate dining companion: smart, social, and rewarding. Whether you’re a foodie in search of your next discovery or simply looking for a stress-free dining experience, the app ensures every table you book is more than just a meal—it’s an experience worth sharing.
