A barbecie in Toril, Davao City. They just transferred to their new place just near Caltex, Toril. Their new place is a spacious one, has a huge parking space, an upgrade from their former setting. Barbecue is always the best find in Lawiswis, but I personally recommend their "Tinolas", specially Imbao and Fish, one of the best that I have tried. Better to be here early for their food are really a best seller. Lawiswis is open from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM, daily. They also offers takeout.

This was one of the places I wanted to visit when I was in Davao. We arrived just before the dinner rush and found a perfect parking spot. We ordered food right away. For 8 pax, a php 1,000 (including senior citizen discount) is really affordable. We did have to wait a little bit longer, otherwise the barbecue and everything else we got were all good.

The food here is great but some recipes they have didn't have the same taste with before for example their grilled chicken. They have a parking now compare to their old location. They are still near the Toril Proper where they are know to have delicious food.

The best barbeque in town! The authentic BBQ sauce is still the same sweet and savory sauce loved by the people of Toril.

I love the new location, at least now they do have a parking area. Also a bigger location is a plus. The taste is really good for the price of what they offer, and that is always good.

The place may not be classy but the bbq/food speaks for itself and you can only taste that in Toril
