| - I finally found the one Filipino restaurant that I absolutely love! I'm Filipino, born and bred. Over the years, I've developed an aversion to Filipino food because most of the Filipino restaurants in town serve food that is either too oily or greasy or too salty. Not Tina's. Tina's is different from all the Filipino restaurants I've ever eaten in here in Vegas. They serve Filipino food with a twist. I can't explain it.. I guess that twist is that their food is not overly salty or overly greasy, just the right amount of goodness. We came here tonight for my mom's birthday (there were 16 of us) and they accommodated us. Tina, the owner, remembered my sister from when she celebrated her 18th birthday at the restaurant that Tina used to work in. She took great care of our party and made sure everyone was happy. I would DEFINITELY recommend this place because not only do they serve great food, their service is also top-notch. It's kind of out of the way from where I live, but I wouldn't mind making the drive out here to eat Talonggong (eggplant with bagoong), siomai, sisig, crispy pata (with kare-kare), and everything else on the menu. Seriously, I didn't have anything from this place that I didn't like. We were a big party, so we ordered a lot of food. I ate every single dish that we ordered and was highly impressed. Mind you, I am not easily impressed. The best part is, Tina gave my mom a free dessert (Filipino banana split) and she even gave us plates to serve the birthday cake that we brought from outside. I rarely write reviews on the same day I eat in that restaurant, so this one is really something special. GO TRY IT, YOU WILL LIKE IT!
