It was supposedly a perfect Sunday for our family to bond together until we walk in to this restaurant ( Kuya J's Sm fairview annex yeah it's specific), 3/4 of the menu was not available (considering that it is a weekend lunchtime) so we ended up ordering their "new" Ube halo halo which supposed to have leche flan on top but since they ran out of stock changed it into langka instead. So for the second time my dad noded his head and says okay about it thinking that all this inconvenience will stop there but little did he knew that we're gonna wait for 1 hour just for 7 orders of that ube halohalo with langka as its only ingredient andddd on a take-out plastic cup! So unsatisfying, so unprofessional, so not ideal for a weekend eat-out for family. Even the lady on the table next to us wrote a complaint on a piece of paper on her frustration that it will get to the person who manages the place. She even looked at my mother and smirked both agreeing with the same unacceptable experience. So if you want to ruin your Sunday family day...i will...

My family (me, my wife, and three) had lunch there.

The waitress said that we had to wait for 20 minutes. We finished ordering at around 11:17am then serving of the food started at 11:50am and was completed at 12:25pm. There were customers who were already complaining to the cashier, about the delay in service.

We had:

Beef kaldereta: which i decided to take out, because this was served last and very late Halo regular, and halo saba: tasty without need of mixing, because sherbet ice is used. Whole fried chicken: very good with the sauce accg to my wife and daughters; i did not eat this, because i have allergy with chicken Rice: portions were like glue Iced tea, is for 3 pax, commercially tasting, like one can buy at a grocery store Pinakbet: unusually sweet.

I will not recommend dining there, nor will i be...
