(818) 888-6448
Hours: Monday-Saturday, 7:30-8 p.m.; Sunday, 7:30-3:00 p.m.
VALUE - 9
As with point-point joints, they have one item, and two items deals. The prices are extremely cheap for homemade Filipino dishes.
TASTE - 7
As far as a typical point-point joint, I think the taste is above average. i don't expect stellar results from food on a hot plate. It's the little subtle touches I believe that makes them a little better than the nearest competition.
PRESENTATION - 7
Again, not expecting much. Styrofoam plates and plastic utensils. They make the best with what they have
AMBIANCE - 8
The layout is very friendly and open. Everytime I visit, it seems like there are always cross-table talk. People seem to be very friendly with each other, and large groups seem to like the set up.
SERVICE - 9
I love that the owner herself is the one who gives me food. She even adds on a little free dessert here and there. She always asks if the food is to my liking. She seems very receptive in making her food and service better.
WOULD I RETURN? - 9
Yes, it's a great place to go for a quick bite. Lots of these dishes take forever to make, which makes it convenient for me if I don't feel like cooking.
SOCIAL INTERACTION - 9
Everyone is extremely friendly and courteous. Everyone seems to know each other.
OVERALL RATING - 8.18
Knowing that this falls under a Filipino point-point joint, I had very few expectations. ManilaTown seems to exceed my expectations and found a way to personalize the few things that they can. I like the food, the prices are extremely reasonable and the service is friendly.
