The 'official' Tagalog spelling you see in textbooks, but let's be real, most people just type 'restaurant' or 'restoran'. A 'restawran' is where you take your family after someone graduates, or where you have awkward first dates. From the fancy 'kainan' in BGC to the turo-turo with the questionable but delicious ulam, they're all technically 'restawran'.
From Spanish 'restaurante', adapted into a Filipino phonetic spelling.
'Restoran' and 'resto' are more common in casual conversation and writing. 'Restawran' is a more phonetically Filipino spelling.
