Winnie's Filipino Kitchen — Restaurant in Chesapeake

Not worth my trip for its food and its service. The food is mediocre and what made this review a 1 star is the way the service left me with a bad experience of this place. I will not suggest this place to anyone. You deserve to treat yourself with your hard-earned money. Spend it wisely, spend it elsewhere, this place is not it. You’ve been warned. Spend at your own risk.

What I hate most about a person is a liar. I took a screenshot of the reply from this store in case it gets deleted, to show how this person not only has a bad attitude but adds to her character as a liar. I can't believe she replied the way she did. Just to think of the possible lies she made to her other reviewers. You know that saying, “If they did it to you, they have done it to someone else.”

LIE

1.) “I am sorry we are closed every Wednesday.” How can you be close when I entered your store, spoke to a female at the counter face to face, ordered food, paid the cashier with my credit card, sat down at your table, ate, got disrespected, and witnessed a foreign couple walk in to order. After eating, left your store and vowed to never return.

2.) “You knocked my door but I need my time off.” Clearly, with my statement above, why do I need to knock when the store is open?

3.) “You did not buy any food that day.” If you claim you are close and you’re off. Then how would I possibly ” buy any food that day.” I rest my case.

This person is the type who makes up stories and makes excuses.

I made a rightful judgment to never come back and take my hard-earned money elsewhere.

Pls. Winnie’s Filipino Kitchen, refrain from replying to someone’s review if you are not 100% sure who you replying to, because this is just bad of you and bad for...

My wife called yesterday to see what they had on the menu because we were in the mood for Filipino food.. the owner answered the phone.. when my wife asked what they currently had on the line.. the lady responded with 3 items.. when my wife asked what else she had, she hung up on her.. my wife called back to give her the benefit of the doubt that maybe they got disconnected.. but it was obvious that she had hung up on her.. when my wife asked again what else they had.. the lady rudely responded by saying that "I already told you everything" what else do you want to know? Wow!! Talk about straight rudeness towards your customers.. at that point, I told my wife to not bother with that place anymore and that there are many other Filipino restaurants that serve good food with way better customer service.. my mother in law is Filipino and had order food from there before and that is one of the reasons why we wanted to give it a try.. "Never again" I will never give this place a single dime of my money considering how rude she is.. My wife is Filipino but does not speak Tagalog.. but I can almost guarantee you that if she had called and spoken Tagalog from the beginning.. the attitude would have been completely different! I gave 1 Star.. but that was the lowest you can go.. people work so hard for their money to receive poor service like this.. Just not worth your time or money to go there.. Don't waste your time here.. go elsewhere! You'll receive way better...

The owner is very rude. I called and asked what was on the menu for the day. She did not give me much information on what was cooked and she sounded irritated that I even called. She told me there was Lumpia, sausage and fish. When I asked if there was something else, she hung up on me. I thought we got disconnected. So I called back and said we got disconnected. Then she rudely told me there is nothing more on the menu and hung up on me. The only reason I called because I was driving from Dam Neck and my mother had food from her restaurant and I thought was good. But after that encounter, I am not going to give someone who is rude my business. I am surprise this place is in business with the way she treats customers. I ended up going to Ihaw Ihaw on Princess Anne and Lynnhaven, at least they know how to treat their customers. Maymar on Pleasant Valley is another place that treats their customer well. Oriental Cuisine Kainan their food is also delicious and never had issues. Only at Renee's another place where you are treated well. Susan's Kitchenette Filipino great food here also and they treat you well too! Many options to choose from and not have to put up with rudeness. FYI the food that I had was good but the attitude the owner gives you is another issue by the way I am Filipino, I just don't speak...
