Lola Ima Pampanga Cuisine — Restaurant in San Fernando

We are here yesterday for Mother's Day. The food somehow is nothing special and not healthy. They just offer a fried chicken and chicharon, the kare kare is full of bones, the pancit bihon is watery, I did not try their snail because this place they don't offer a proper sanitary at least table napkins to wipe your hands. I just try this restaurant and this is my last one. My mother did not eat the food as she is senior. I saw her she take a fried chicken and the puso sagin but she did not finish either. I feel she did not enjoy her special day despite that I reserve for 30+ persons. My uncle as well he telling me the food yesterday is like a trash. Even my eldest brother telling me is like they prepare the food for dogs on mothers day. If I can leave a review without giving star. One star they don't deserve either, their staff on the counter specially girls are nit smiling. I am Chef I work in some Michelin restaurants in Paris like Joel Rubochon, William Ledeuil, Masion Blanche, Ippudo etc etc and Yann Sabot pastry in Le Puy-en-Velay in France. And I have run my own business in Taiwan. The first thing I have to reminds with my team is to smile, and keep smiling to the customers on no matter what the situation. Sorry I will not bring my family here again I rather to find other restaurant or I will cook myself. Not because the suggestion of my cousin from Australia I will not come here to drive inside. I just thought I should arrange my family and relatives near SM that they enjoy after the meal. I spend 10k+ for that kind of food. Definetely I shall no return...

Well Lola Ima is one of the cheapest buffet I had in Pampanga. With a price of 260 for Lunch and 299 for Dinner. It is definitely worth the buck. We came in for their Lunch service and their food choices are sufficient on what you’ve paid for. There are lots of customer at that time and still Lola Ima was able to accommodate us. There are 2 choices for soup which are sinigang and tahong. They also serve salad, fried and plain rice, pansit canton, pork kare kare, honey glazed chicken, pitchachon which is sort of chicharon, fish fillet and my favorite ginataang kuhol. Their dessert has three choices which are lelut mais and ginataan if im not mistaken. You can also make your own halo halo. Free flowing drinks are also included. Overall food quality is good considering the price that we’ve paid. They also cater events on which you can rent it out for your personal events. Accepts cash and card payments. Wide...

The place is easy to locate.. just take the way of the old paskuhan village, and you will not get lost as signage is posted on the street.
