I can't really compare this to other filipino food, because I haven't really eaten any. The extent of my knowledge on filipino food is what I've learned from filipino nurses at the hospital, and Balut is not on my bucket list of things to try....But anytime I get grilled spam with eggs and rice, served on styrofoam plates and TV's showing a filipino beauty pagent you know this food is either going to taste freakin delicious or give you diarrhea for a week. Luckily for me it was the former. Great food, and the halo-halo special for dessert shouldn't be passed up. One day I'll work up the courage to try the food by the checkout counter, but....baby steps. Don't worry I'll be back.
P.S. They got karaoke is the back.
