We love their appetizers, crispy tawilis and seafood gambas (we request this not spicy). Tortang talong is great! Their signature Tinolang Manok sa Pakwan is very good! Plus their Phad thai is loaded with ingredients (we also request this not spicy).

Their Beef Chili dish was exceptional, packed with flavors more evident was the soy sauce, topped with a variety of vegetables. Their bestseller Tinola sa Pakwan has oddly creativity written all over it. It's good. It's different. It's sweet. Black Pasta, another bestseller, was a bit sour. The noodles used was kinda similar to pancit bihon. Staff were kind, inviting, and friendly.

It was a pretty okay experience overall--not WOW but not terrible either. The place has okay interiors, the staff is nice enough, the restroom is clean (yay!), and the food is priced okay--the five of us spent around P200 each and were quite filled up. We had an appetizer plate (P220 for 3): onion rings and crabsticks, hoisin chicken, and 'isaw'--not very isaw-like but good, and the onion rings were more like cups than rings, but they were passable, taste-wise. There was also binagoongang lechon kawali, which was very nice but was more binagoongan than lechon kawali, I guess. It could have been a bit crispier, in my opinion. Next was the pad thai. Now, I've heard a lot about pad thai, and was psyched to finally be able to try it out, but when I did I didn't know if Roberta's take was just different or if pad thai isn't as great as people say it is. In short, it was 'meh' for me. I liked the tang the slices of green mango add, though. Our friend who came late had a solo rice bowl to himself, though I didn't get to ask about it. Warning also: the housewater they serve is infused with pandan, which smells good but tasted weird for me and my friends.

I, honestly, am not a fan of tinola, but this new taste is one must try for the food outside. price is reasonable. servier size is great. overall, I would say I will definitely come back.
