The Origin and History of Parola Seaview Restaurant 

Parola Seaview Restaurant in Cordova, Cebu was launched in February 2022 by the Creative Cuisine Group (CCG), the company behind several well-known Cebu dining brands. Its name, “Parola” (meaning lighthouse), reflects both its seaside location near the RORO Port of Cordova and its symbolic role as a beacon for visitors. Built on a jetty with a decorative lighthouse structure, the restaurant offers an open-air dining experience with stunning sunset views. From its opening, Parola quickly became a popular landmark, attracting families, tourists, and groups who enjoy affordable Filipino dishes by the sea. Its success in Cordova led to the opening of additional branches in Naga and Sands Gateway Danao, strengthening its reputation as one of Cebu’s most notable seaside dining destinations.

Parola Seaview is more than just a restaurant; it has become a community hub. It provides jobs to locals, promotes Cordova’s seafood industry, and showcases 

Cebuano hospitality. For visitors, it’s a gateway to appreciating Cordova’s laid-back seaside lifestyle.

  

My Personal Experience together with my Friends

My buddies and I made the decision to sample the renowned seafood dishes at Parola Seaview Restaurant in Cordova one weekend.  The sight of the ornamental lighthouse and the cool sea breeze made the jetty feel wonderful as soon as we went along it.  The flavors of the grilled squid, sinigang na hipon, and other dishes we ordered were enhanced by the background sound of the waves.  We had a memorable meal while watching the gorgeous sunset, which filled the sky with pink and orange hues.  That night at Parola, which combined delicious food, laughter, and the majesty of the sea, turned into one of our favorite times spent together.
