You will find different kinds of street foods in here, small space as long as it's not that busy you will get a chance to sit down, it's a little bit pricey but if u really miss street food you will for sure buy it. ????
This is not your typical Filipino restaurant because by the name itself: "Eskenita Foods" meaning street corner foods, you can't really expect it to be fancy. If you were born and raised in the Philippines then you'll know what I'm talking about.. So I don't really understand when I see people complaining about the ambiance of this restaurant? Lol. It is what it is you guys. If anything, the only difference is their food is legit clean unlike the foods that you can buy from the literal Eskenita in the Philippines. (If you know what I mean) Haha.
Location wise: It's not very easy to find, but if you just follow your GPS then you'll get there for sure. Lol. And they have store signs that stands out! Parking is very easy since it's located in a commercial complex meaning, there's always a spot within walking distance so that's a huge plus!
Prices: Very affordable! And for the portion of the food? Omg. I can't really complain about it. They also have a Buy 12 skewers get 3 free so yeah. Might as well get that to save some $!
Taste: Very legit! I enjoyed every bite of my pork Isaw. The flavors of their skewers are unlike any other Filipino restaurants around! But don't just take my word for it, ya'll gotta try it! And OMG. Their Mais Con Yelo is so delicious! Like I'm not even exaggerating!
Service: they really do make you feel at home. All of their staff are very friendly and accommodating! They will always serve you with a smile, chat with you and even take pictures with you if you let them, of course.
Overall? I would definitely recommend it to all Filipinos and non-Filipinos who wanted to know and experience what the street foods in the Philippines taste like!
No nonsense basic restaurant. Nothing glamorous but it fits the bill. Had my first noodle fight ever and I was honesty pleasantly surprised. Left full and satisfied. Not the cleanest restaurant but always full. I came to eat, and so I conquered.
Food is good. Pricing is decent. Customer service is bad. Waiting for an order of a bowl takes forever.
I walked in for the first time on a weekday. There was only a group of four people eating, and yet the cook complained he was the only one serving.
I wish they could smile more and have a little more patience.
