Finding Solace In The Heart Of Makati

Hearty comfort food in a hidden gem right in the heart of Makati. Solace Wine & Dine is just the place to enjoy classic comfort food, and a great spot to unwind from the city's hectic pace.  

A wide range of dishes, from starters to mains to desserts, including an extensive wine list. All here in a calming and comforting space, and despite being right smack in the center of Makati, there is a soothing feeling of being far from it all.

Located at One Greenbelt Hotel at the very heart of the Makati, Solace Wine & Dine is aptly named, providing a comforting sanctuary amidst the hustle and bustle of the CBD. 

Start your meal with one of many fresh fruit smoothies from Solace. If you a refreshing pick-me-up, go for the the Rejuvenator (P 145), a power smoothie blend with carrots, apple, orange, and celery.

Homemade Nachos (P 195), generously topped with beef, cheese and fresh tomato salsa. The homemade nachos at Solace are unique, shaped like triangular pillows. Break one open, and stuff the inside with the toppings for full flavors.

Warm Salad of Salt and Pepper Squid (P 275), a refreshing mix with chorizo, crispy marble potatoes, spinach and garlic aioli. Rich flavors in a light dish, another cool starter to go with any of the signature mains at Solace.

Beer Battered Fish and Chips (P 385), served with tartar sauce. A deliciously crisp outer layer over tender and delicate fish, complemented by the creamy tartar sauce, a light yet filling meal in itself.

Craving for burgers? Go for the Half-Pounder Solace Burger (P 410), topped with aged cheddar cheese, smoked bacon, coleslaw, and homemade onion rings served with thick-cut chips, with a variety of flavors from the toppings. Open wide, as this baby's quite hefty.

Slow Cooked Baby Back Ribs (P 895), glazed with homemade bbq sauce marinade with a side of coleslaw and fresh greens. A slab of tender, sweet and smoky ribs over fries, great for sharing too, unless you're one hungry dude.

Chicken Breast Wrapped in Parma Ham (P 445), served over mushroom truffle and Parmesan risotto, tender chicken wrapped with richly flavored Parma Ham for a cool blend of flavors. The moist and flavorful risotto completes the dish.

And for dessert, Solace has a full complement of sweet treats to complete your meal, including a creamy Banoffee Pie...

...a rich and indulgent Molten Chocolate Lava Cake...

...a creamy and indulgent Brazo de Mercedes...

...or a comforting Apple Pie, topped with a layer of sweet crumble. 

If you feel the need to get away from the city, here's a cool spot with comforting food for a special recharge. And you don't even have to leave the city. Special thanks to Eunice Uy, General Manager, for an awesome dinner at Solace.
