Food: Bland taste, stale freshness
Despite boasting dishes that could've been stellar, the Crispy Pata Pork Hocks, Crispy Meat Platter, and Lumpia Shanghai only raise anticipation that's dashed at first taste. Lackluster creativity, disappointing taste, and a palpable staleness strangely paired with ample portions and fair value diminish the dining experience.
Great Value
Great food at fair prices, service quality a notable positive aspect.
Okay Taste
Some food is delicious, other dishes mediocre, yielding mixed feelings.
Bad Variety
Menu selection is typical and lacks the creativity some desire.
Top 3 dishes at Salo Salo Kitchen
- 1
Crispy Pata Deep-Fried Pork Hocks 🏆
Crispy golden skin with juicy meat that falls off the bone.
- 2
Crispy Meat Platter
Ample portions, satisfyingly crispy yet moist and tender inside.
- 3
Garlic Rice
Topped with tasty garlic chips, it's a flavorful filipino staple.
Vibe: Uninspiring ambiance, poor drinks
A poorly maintained ambiance, with questionable hygiene and confined space, does little to elevate the dining experience. The lack of alcoholic offerings further aggravates the situation making it far from the quintessential date night spot, despite its popularity on Instagram.
Okay Buzz
Instagram popularity attracts, but in reality, food presentation may vary.
Bad Ambiance
Ambiance marred by dirty bathrooms, cramped space, and stuffy interiors.
Perks: Parking woes and misleading descriptions
Parking is a nightmare and those who surmount that challenge are met with an unorganized waiting system leading to frustrated customers. Moreover, dishes are misrepresented and dietary requirements mislabeled. Attempts to cater to large groups and families end up as a saving grace in an otherwise dampening service.
Great For Groups
Efficiently accommodates large groups with ample space and group menus.
Okay To Hear
Inviting atmosphere, but lively noise levels present.
Bad For Diets
Dishes mislabeled, vegetables advertised not included, with misleading photos.
