About Palawan Souvenir Alley El Nido

A concentrated row of souvenir shops along the main street of El Nido selling Palawan pearls, shell jewelry, woven bags, and locally made handicrafts. The pearl vendors here sell genuine south sea pearls directly from Palawan pearl farms at prices far below Manila retail - worth inspecting carefully with the right eye.

More Food & Drink in El Nido

🍜

Tuna & Tides El Nido

The finest dining restaurant in El Nido town, with an Italian-Filipino menu showcasing the extraordinary fresh seafood of Palawan - line-caught yellowfin tuna tartare, grilled barracuda with garlic and olive oil, and Palawan prawns cooked in butter and local herbs. The freshest fish you will eat in the Philippines.

🍜

Altrove Restaurant El Nido

The sister restaurant to Altrove Caffe, serving proper Italian cuisine - fresh pasta, wood-fired pizza, and excellent tiramisu - in an open-air setting facing the main street. For travelers exhausted by a week of island-hopping, a plate of cacio e pepe and a bottle of Primitivo is the perfect reset.

🍜

Tatay Dodge BBQ El Nido

The most authentic local BBQ experience in El Nido - a family-run grill where fresh fish, pork skewers, and prawns are cooked over charcoal at tables in the street. Prices are genuinely local, the portions are huge, and the experience of eating lechon manok with a cold Pale Pilsen under the stars is El Nido at its most real.
