The problem with Filipino establishments/restaurants which I have come to realize, is that "consistency" seems to be lackluster. Take for example, the newly opened Island Pacific, you don't know if you are being served food from yesterday's cooking or the cook decided to call in sick and had someone else make your favorite dinuguan. Its either a hit or miss and I don't have time to be rolling the dice.
In my last few visits in this restaurant/store, the food have been excellent. Very consistent in their flavor and the home made taste is palatable. This is it! So far.. I hope they continue what they are doing because my stomach is happy. However, it's a shame that when you search for Filipino food or Asian food, it does not pop up on the maps or yelp. You have to type in the name for it to populate. This is a marketing issue and should be addressed by the owners if they want to stay alive in this competitive market.
