Medusa, the newest concept from The Palace Manila, is flipping the script on Manila’s nightlife. As the Philippines' first supper club, the energy peaks as early as 8 p.m. with a DJ already playing, so you experience the party at its peak while still being able to enjoy the morning after.

The vibe is "classy-meets-relaxed": sophisticated enough to feel fancy—thanks to its chic Art Deco interiors—but still a casual space where you can catch up with friends. Grab a cocktail at the central oval bar to see and be seen, or head to the intimate lounge bar when you actually want to hear your date. Even the transition spaces are a vibe, with a social lounge designed for those spontaneous chats with fellow guests.

The food also deserves the spotlight. European comfort classics like the Octopus & Chorizo and Miso Black Cod are non-negotiable, followed by indulgent Profiteroles with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce.

At Medusa, you get the best of both worlds: the banging atmosphere of a nightclub paired with the relaxed vibe of a long dinner.

Medusa is located at the Uptown Parade, 9th Avenue, Taguig, Metro Manila. It’s open from Tuesdays to Saturdays, serving supper from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. and late-night experiences from 10 p.m to 2 a.m. For reservations, visit their website, contact 0917 689 8888, or email events@thepalacemanila.com. 

Price range: P290-P790 for cocktails, P650-P3,880 per person
