A Bacolod Favorite that Became a City Hit
It was 1976. The Cajili Family boldly introduced Bacolod Chicken House, serving the local specialty, inasal, a beloved barbecue skewer in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental. And it didn’t take long for the delicious dish to capture the hearts–and taste buds–of Bacolodnons.
Confident that this hometown favorite could make it big in the city, one of the Cajili family members teamed up with a close friend to bring an inasal restaurant concept to Manila. Armed with a family recipe that stood the test of time, the owners refined the Cajili family’s special marinade to create their own signature version. And the rest is history.
Inasal Chicken Bacolod first opened its doors in 1997 along Pedro Gil Street in Manila. When we welcomed our customers, our goal was simple: to create a warm, inviting space where busy people can enjoy smoke-seared dishes in comfort. As luck would have it, our little restaurant became an instant hit, earning its place as a go-to spot for food lovers.
Today, we have branches across Metro Manila and are planning to open more soon—spreading the classic taste of inasal that everyone has come to love.
Our family’s go-to. Now yours, too.
A crown jewel on the menu, our chicken inasal is grilled to perfection using our original marinade, giving it a distinct and bold flavor. Charred on the outside, juicy on the inside–every bite is a delight. And when paired with garlic rice, the flavors only get better.
At ICB, we’re honored to bring you the authentic taste of Bacolod’s beloved classic. And with other Filipino favorites, we’re sure that there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
So, if you’re craving a warm, delicious meal that will surely satisfy your soul, come dine with us. We promise: you’ll feel right at home!
