J.Boy is the Japanese equivalent of Chowking to Chinese food - barely there, but convenient enough to keep you coming back for more.
I personally have an affinity for this place because it's open til very late at night - perfect for those times you wake up at midnight and hungry. It's also pretty cheap for Ortigas standards - for a hundred bucks you get a nice Oyakodon with a drink. And being along San Miguel Ave makes it very convenient.
Their food is nothing compared to a proper Japanese restaurant. But this is a fastfood joint, and once you're in that perspective, its pretty decent.
What I do love about this place is the place - from the Seven Samurai stills on the walls right down to the constant flow of J-pop on their speakers. I went there once and they were even playing Super Sentai themes (Choudennnshiiiiii... Bio-maaaaaan!), and as I write this the theme from Slam Dunk is playing.
Overall, a pretty cool place, but I wish their food was slightly better. read more
