Farinas Ilocos Empanada — Restaurant in Quezon City

This place offered authentic Ilocano cuisine. If you're craving for Vigan Empanada, Longganisa and Bagnet etc. This place open even late night so it's really an option if you're nearby the area. It's located same building as Penalosa Boxing Gym, Golds Gym adjacent which is across Anytime Fitness. So you can workout and eat after. If you also want to buy fresh/not cooked longganisa, they have it. The place is not so big, so seats and parking will be a challenge during regular hours. It could have been 5 stars, if I havent felt a not so good customer service experience, but I know they could do better than that. I've been there countless times, and so far...

I have tried to eat there 3 times, the first 2 dine in we really have a good experience not until with the last dine in, and definitely the last! Food is really good I must say that but the owner is really rude since I got in when im taking my order from the serving the food!!!!! IT IS REALLY A BAD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE LITERALLY! NOT RECOMMENDABLE TO GET A FOOD HERE! IT WAS A DISASTER AND THE FACT THAT THEY TOLD US THAT WE DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SPECIAL TO REGULAR!!! LIKE WHO THE HELL SHE IS?! THAT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS REALLY BAD !!! DEFINITELY WILL NOT DINE IN OR ORDER...

The food is passable, there are a lot of other places, even carinderias, offering tastier meals. A place offering bagnet and empanada should have a kitchen in full view of diners. At roadside eateries in Vigan you can see them cook your empanada. Here while eating your meal, you'll be thinking you could have had done a better job cooking it yourself. The place is airconditioned and usually empty, which for me is a plus especially at time you just want to eat greasy...
