    Thanks for the awesome catering experience and so delicious food. A very successful Birthday celebration.

    Great food! Clean restaurant, home made authentic filipino food. Makes you feel like you're back in the Philippines.

    Chicken adobo, pork adobo, and pancit noodles.

    Pacific Island Kitchen rocks my socks. It's part cafeteria serving Filipino food, part market selling Filipino groceries, and all delicious. There's no menu to order from. Instead, you walk up to a counter that looks like something you'd find at Chipotle or Luby's. You go down the line pointing at what you want and then you pay. There's a small seating area--perhaps about four or five tables max. It's usually not busy at any particular time, so finding a spot to eat is rather easy. I've primarily only had the pork adobo, chicken adobo, and pancit noodles as I'm not brave enough for the fish yet (nor would I know how to eat the fish in the way it's prepared--I'll get there some day!). What I've had to-date is tasty--and I end up leaving my plate completely empty. The market is also awesome. Before or after you eat, you can browse a laundry list of Filipino groceries. Prawn chips? Check. Banana sauce? Double check. Skyflakes? Yup. And all other sorts of interesting food you won't find at the major grocery stores in the area. In all, this is one of my favorite places to dine at whenever I'm in town. Will definitely continue to go here.

    Part Filipino minimart and part mini Filipino cafeteria is this business. This review deals with only the cafeteria side of the business. For $8, one can get a combo plate of one starch and two meats/veggies sides. For starch, the choices are white rice or pancit. The meat/veggie choices varies daily. On our visit, we went with the pancit/bitter melon with chicken/pork adobo combo. The pancit was very good, better than some of the Filipino eateries in Houston. The other two choices were average. The owner and his sole employee were very friendly. We gave four stars for the friendly folks, acceptable price, and decent Filipino foods. Anyway, this is the only game in town. There is no other Filipino eatery in Harlingen.

    This was the plate I ordered, kare kare, lumpia, and white rice. Masarap!!

    There are little to no Filipino places here in the valley and if you want to try some good food come here.
