So, of all the Pinoy places in Vegas, why did I choose this tiny modest place?!
Because of their variety of "-silogs." (They have at least 16! What?!?!! Yeah!!!)
And the fact that nothing is cooked until you order is a HUGE PLUS!
At the speed I was going, I almost drove away from it - good thing Hubbers spotted it immediately.
Plenty of parking on the street, so this isn't an issue.
Walked in and yes: it really IS a small joint. I have to say the place can probably only seat about 17 people, bar seating included.
There were about 5 other customers when we got here, so it felt like there was a crowd (it really is that small!)
Hubbers went for the tocilog.
I went for the tortasilog. And a melon drink.
So did my Dad. With a coke.
Mom went for the liempo silog.
We also wanted to try their sinigang so we put in a whole order.
One would think it might take forever since everything is cooked to order, right?!
We were all surprised ALL our food got to our table in about 20 minutes.
Talk about a yumfest. We really enjoyed our individual meals. We also shared our dishes - that liempo was cooked to a nice, well-seasoned perfection.
We had enough leftovers to build a whole "-silog" so we had that wrapped up to-go. (For possibly a midnight meal.)
Total is approximately $50. (I'm estimating because I didn't see a breakdown/receipt of our orders.) We were also told it included a mandatory $5 gratuity for a party of 4.
You know... I was so happy with my meal, I didn't even care. Although given the choice, I might have tipped a bit more, but since they decided on their own tip amount, I let it go.
(I had the to-go meal the very next day and... HOOOO-EEEY!!! That garlic rice got REALLY garlicky!!!! I'm not a vampire, or anything, but it got REALLY strong. I might just opt for steamed rice next time.)
I wish them well! I very rarely come to Vegas, but if and when I do, I would absolutely return here!
