Christmas came early for Generals, as the very first steak house of Gensan, Cotton Bowl, an icon by name and taste, opened its doors yet again, after long hiatus, and is back in a bigger than ever. Cotton Bowl Grill and Steakhouse first opened its doors on 1962 at Pioneer Avenue. Their signature Steaks, chicken and burger recipe had been passed down by a retired US Navy to his children, then grandchildren and great grandchildren’s, still maintaining the same food quality that has been served to different people from different generations. Their dishes are all served to their clients specifications.

The new location is quite different from the original at Pioneer Avenue, its more spacious, has a huge parking space, and a very homey atmosphere that goes well with the service they provide. Their service really shows that they’re a family oriented resto, as it reflects to the fact that its also a family ran business.

Cotton Bowl is not only a family restaurant, and not just a steakhouse, its a place where everyone, of all ages, could come and have a great meal and great fun for a great price.

Hanged out with my mom a few days after their Grand Re-Opening last Dec. 08, 2014, along with her BFF’s as the place is owned by one of her BFF’s as well. Got the T-bone steak, I ate it all to the bone, very flavourful, rich and cooked jus as I asked it to be which is medium well. We also tried their Boneless Bangus Steak and Tenderloin Tips which were just absolutely divine. At the end of the meal we had a good laugh, as to where did all the food go, and what happened to our diets. The flavours really made us chow down, guilt free.

So whenever your in Gensan, this place is a must try. Drop by at San Pedro Extension Lagao, General Santos City. 

Something to look forward to, they will soon serve Angus Beef and a Special Day for Steaks on the works, so keep posted. Like their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/cottonbowlgrillsteakhouse , for inquiries and reservations call them at *** 55G-RILL ( 554-7455).
