Sir Manong - ROOTY HILL

Service: dine in meal type: dinner price per person: $20–40

Food is ok but took so long to come out when we ordered early at 5:30pm. Staff weren’t friendly and kept putting the hot food plates right in front of my baby and said “hot” which is pointless. I told them no the first time and they still did it again. Rather frustrating. I want to support filo food culture but this service is not great. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner

This is one of those situations where it seems like the Instagram influencer was either comped a free meal or compensated in some way to promote a very average restaurant as if it were amazing. On the positive side, the portion sizes are quite generous and the prices are reasonable. However, on the downside, none of the dishes we tried were particularly impressive; everything was quite salty. Additionally, their signature lechon dish was sold out by 6 PM, which was disappointing given all the hype.
