The ranking
The best of the poke and salad bowls in Makati right now is HEALTHY SAND Makati Central Square on L/G, scoring 89.6 on our editorial index from a 5 Google average across 52 ratings.
Ranked by editorial score, highest first. Each score combines the venue's Google rating with how many people gave it, so a high average on a thin review count does not outrank a proven one.
A sandwich shop in Makati. 5 from only 52 ratings, so treat this as an early signal rather than a settled verdict. Google puts it in the cheapest price band.

Good to know
HEALTHY SAND Makati Central Square at L/G, Makati Central Square, 2130 Chino Roces Ave, Legazpi Village, Makati City ranks first, with an editorial score of 89.6 built from a 5 Google rating across 52 ratings as of 27 July 2026. The full ranked list of 6 is on this page.
Position comes from an editorial score combining a venue's Google rating with how many people rated it, using a Bayesian average. A 4.7 from 50 reviews does not automatically beat a 4.4 from 635, because the second is a much stronger signal. Ranking is never sold and no commercial relationship can change a position.
Ratings are re-pulled from Google monthly and every venue is re-checked for whether it is still trading. Venues that close are removed rather than left on the page. This list was last verified on 27 July 2026.
We do not sell ranking positions. Some venues are LocalEnhance clients or paid placements, and each of those is labelled on its own card. Paid placements also carry a rel="sponsored" attribute on their outbound link so search engines can see the relationship.
The ₱ markers on each card come from Google's own price level for that venue, so they reflect what people actually pay rather than our estimate. On this list they run from ₱ to ₱₱₱₱.
