  I always knew its existence, but have never eaten at this place until yesterday when a friend from another country invited me to give it a try. We were 4th in line and had an ample time to witness and observed the female server's attitude (skinny ponytailed with glasses), she was sloppy, mad and with an angry frowned face. Never made an eye contact with anyone nor had the ability to be pleasant, she was just purely lacking the capacity of being nice which is a given and expected from any food server specially in the kind of business she works at. When it was our turn to be served she was EXTREMELY RUDE in asking us what we wanted with an angry tone, I decided to let it go because I did not want her to be the spoiler of my day or my experience there. My friend paid for our meal and also gave a generous amount of tip considering this is a fast food place. I don't know if we just made the wrong choice of dishes but considering we have picked what we thought looked appetizing and craved for which were pork adobo ribs, chicken with potato and tomato sauce and some type of beef soup. It was with so much regret that we have ever gone to this mediocre place to waste money for such a lousy cooking much less of the servers' rudeness, the dishes were bland with the exception of the pork adobo which had an average taste, Idk maybe it was not adobo although it had a sauce similar with the color used on adobos and unlike other pork adobos I tried from other places this one is the worse, it had a weird taste that was kind of sweet and sour which is the main reason of me being forced in writing this review. We decided to take it home for someone who may appreciate it more than we do, I went back and politely asked for a container and now the angry frowned turned b***** resting faced woman reached for the smallest styrofoam cup which could barely accommodate just the adobo sauce itself. I went back and asked for a bigger one and she rudely yelled "IT'S .25C!!!" in the face of everyone waiting in line, I was shocked with her unnecessary loudness and I said "really." Another woman came and yelled in her defense, "IT'S TRUE IT'S .25C", I gave the .25c, but both of their whole attitude transpired me to say how I felt. I said ".25c is not a big deal it's is your attitude about it that sucks," and since she looks a little bit more presentable thinking she's the owner I also pointed out to her that the other woman has been extremely rude since the beginning and that her attitude sucks, but boy I was wrong, in turn she also started to argue by rudely yelling, "YOU KNOW WHAT!!!'. I immediately walked away from their ugly faces and we left with a bad and sour taste in our mouths. My friend witnessed the whole scene and I am so ashamed of how these people poorly treat a customer with the way they acted and now I am imploring him to dispute the tip he gave and have it reversed on his CCard as these people are not deserving of anything for their bloody attitude in the eatery business. The .25c cup vs. 20x of it for the tip my friend gave, go figure. For me the ONE STAR on this review represents a ZERO STAR.
  
  I just read their website's homepage after posting my review, HOSPITABLE and AMIABLE are FALSE words they used in their introduction and are MEANINGLESS to them based on the experience that we have gone through with them.
  
  This PLACE SUCKS, FOODS SUCK and SERVERS SUCK.

  The Adobo, Pancit, and sunday Tortas is the best of any in the bay. You get the taste and feel of a home cooked meal from people who care about their customers and food and for dessert they serve Mitchells Ice-Cream in their Halo-Halo!
