Bistronomia

What Bistronomia does

Bistronomia, doing business as Bistronomia By The Bistro Group, is a Filipino restaurant group headquartered in Makati that operates a portfolio of Spanish and Mediterranean-themed dining concepts across the Philippines. The company was founded in 2012 and employs 51-100 people across three sub-brands: Las Flores, a full-service Spanish restaurant with six locations spanning Metro Manila (BGC, Greenbelt 3, Uptown Ritz, Conrad Manila, Okada Manila) and Hann Casino Resort in Clark; Rumba, a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant featuring charcoal-oven cooking at the Shops at Ayala Triangle in Makati; and La Lola Churreria, a casual Spanish churros concept with four Robinsons mall locations in Antipolo, Las Piñas, Manila, and Quezon City. The group serves individual consumers and small groups seeking dine-in Spanish dining experiences, churros, and event catering.

Bistronomia generates revenue through four streams: in-restaurant dine-in sales, delivery orders processed via the Bistro Delivers platform, event catering (including La Lola's 'Book a Carrito' service), and e-gift card sales distributed through Giftaway, Gifted.ph, and Share Treats. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and menu prices are communicated at point of sale or via downloadable PDFs. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer through owned physical locations, social media channels (Facebook, Instagram), and an email newsletter signup on the BentoBox-powered company website. The customer segment is described as 'General Dining Consumers' — individuals and groups seeking Spanish and Mediterranean dining experiences — with no enterprise or B2B accounts identified.

The technology footprint is light: the consumer-facing website, reservations, menus, and email capture are powered by BentoBox, delivery is handled through Bistro Delivers, and gift cards are distributed via three third-party platforms. There is no proprietary technology stack, no public API, no native mobile app, no AI/ML capabilities, and no patents or trademarks disclosed. The Bistro Group is identified as the parent company, and no external venture capital, private equity, or public listing involvement is evidenced.
