Lusso by Margarita Forés Manila

Lusso by Margarita Forés sits within the Power Plant Mall on Plaza Drive. It is a five-minute walk from the Rockwell Center.

The room runs smart and elegant, leaning into a brand of Italian cooking that is far more considered than the mall-standard fare found throughout Makati City. While the surrounding area is defined by the high-velocity churn of modern retail, Lusso prioritizes a slower, more deliberate pacing. It holds a Michelin star, a distinction that clarifies why one would choose this specific table over the casual quick-service options located just steps away. The kitchen balances classic Italian foundations with a modern touch, refusing the heavy-handed seasoning common to many regional competitors. It is a more rigorous experience than its neighbors offer, favoring technical precision over the volume of the nearby dining halls.
