I wanted to like this place cuz of all the hype. But it was just "meh" to me. Â The ginitaang vegetables was "meh". Not as flavorful as I'd have expected. The pancit was "meh". Just noodles with lots of pepper. The palabok was interesting. I don't think I've ever had it with calamari and tofu sauce. It was good. I was most disappointed in the Laing. Not enough leaves as I am used to. Mostly fatty pork belly that I ate around. Boo.
So the food was "meh". The service was blah. We were treated ok. Nice. But an elderly man came in. Maybe a bit "off". But harmless. He asked a lot of random questions. "Who is the manager?" Â "What's his name?" Â "Can i have a to-go menu?" (Which they ran out of). Some other random things. Can't remember. I just remember the girl who answered him. Â She just kept dismissing him and referring him to the website. He didn't look like a man familiar with a computer let alone a website. She wasn't busy. The restaurant wasn't busy. Her tone with him was just impatient and rude. He's an old man. Appease him.
I may give it another try. Maybe other dishes. But any time soon.
Nobody cooks filipino food better than my mom. My opinion is obviously biased. Since I can't (nor do I want) to go to the burbs all the time to get my fix, Isla Pilipina is the next best thing. Parking is quite sparse here so I usually take the risk of stashing my car at the nearby Burger King. Â But once I'm in, I'm devouring Kare Kare like it was the last time I would ever have it.
