Philippine Resto — Oak Forest filipino that most people haven't found yet. The recipes feel handed down, not invented.

“The batches of food are behind the counter (kinda cafeteria style) and the employee scoops up whatever you want, usually over pancit noodles or white rice”

I mean, I would LOVE to actually try the place if there was a website to make sure of parking options, handicap accessibility and at LEAST check of food allergy possibilities but THERE IS NO SITE.
You're food is imatation Philippine. Nice try though 😝😆💯🍚🍛🍤🥗🍲.
I had ordered pancit tray for takeout along with egg rolls and I was truly disappointed.

Yum! The food is tasty and the owner and staff are very friendly. My last visit was on a Monday and the dishes I had were great. I just wish they had a little more consistency throughout the week. Honestly I prefer their breakfasts over that of Kasama because the flavors are more authentic. Keep in mind this is a mom-n-pop place.
