I remember going to Thelma's in Waipahu. My aunty loved them and we would always be there at least 2-3x months. She called to tell me that they were opening up in LV. Lately we've been going to Elena's but it is pretty far from us, and because of the Yelper's, now I don't have to drive that far.
Thelma's serves Illocano food and it is very familiar and almost as good as Grandma's cooking. You read that right...ALMOSTas good as. LOL
They have a good menu and offer either dishes or combination plates.
We ordered:
Pinakbet, Pancit, Chicken adobo, and a Halo halo.
They were all good especially the pinakbet- its been awhile since i had pinakbet.
The restaurant was very spacious and clean. You can't see the restaurant from Sunset Rd. or Marks St. But they are in same complex as Aloha Kitchen & Vitamin World across from Best Buy.
The service was also very good and the food came out quick. My little pinoy princess also got a free treat. Salamat!
I will definitely be going back very soon. Can't wait to try their breakfast menu.
Aloha!!
