Dinner at Port San Juan [La Union] – Beragampengetahuan
We had an enjoyable family dinner at Port San Juan in La Union and here’s a blog post to share our experience in detail.
Again, our decision was purely based on online reviews and popularity on
TikTok and Instagram. I initially thought that Port San Juan was the actual
restaurant but when we got there, it turned out it was a food hub with
different concessionaires selling food and drinks.
Port San Juan was already a little crowded when we arrived, probably because
it was already a little late. We had a challenging time getting a table big
enough for us but after just a few minutes of waiting, we finally found one.
We surveyed the restaurants before finally settling on Tuna Republik/Sutukil
because they had group meals plus, they had selections that we were sure the
children will love.

The ambiance at Port San Juan
If you are looking for a quiet place to eat, I don’t think Port San Juan is
for you. There was loud music, courtesy of a DJ, and it was not
airconditioned. I would say it caters to the younger, party-loving crowd – it
is dim, you can listen to upbeat music, and you can have a few drinks.
And
because of the music and the large crowds, it tends to get loud inside Port
San Juan. While we managed to get a table near the entrance and a strong
electric fan, it still wasn’t enough to battle the summer heat. Nonetheless,
we managed to have an enjoyable and filling dinner in the end.
What we ordered at Tuna Republik/Sutukil
We ordered rice, fried salmon belly, tuna sisig, fried pompano, and a special
pancit with lechon kawali. We had a fair waiting time before our food arrived,
despite the numerous orders that they were taking and the queue.
The food was delicious and kid-approved, plus they were also reasonably
priced. Our boys loved the fried fish and pancit. Our bellies were full after
our dinner.
Other things to remember
Here are some of the things to keep in mind to ensure an enjoyable experience with your family at Port San Juan:
-
Bring water bottles for your children. Alternatively, you can buy bottled
water for them, but I prefer bringing water bottles because it’s practical and
more environmentally friendly. - Dress lightly because it’s hot inside Port San Juan. You can also bring extra
clothes for your children in case they become sweaty and uncomfortable. - There is paid parking in Port San Juan, but you can have it verified so that
you’ll only pay flat rate. Tricycles are also available right outside Port San
Juan if you prefer to commute. - If you are craving coffee, there are airconditioned coffee shops in Port San
Juan. - Alcoholic beverages are also available. Milk teas and fruit teas are also
great options for beating the heat. - Port San Juan is pet-friendly.
- Be sure to bring cash with you as not all food stalls accept credit cards. PWD
discount is honored. - If you want to go to the beach, just cross the highway and pass through a
narrow path to get to the beach. We took the children to the beach after our
dinner and they absolutely enjoyed playing in the sand.
Port San Juan is located along the National Highway in San Juan, La Union.
