Honestly it was so good that I took my co-worker a few days later to have him try it. First time here we just got the pork on a stick, tuna roll and potstickers. All of it was just amazing. The portions and flavors were just a 10 out of 10. Second time I got the Spicy pork combo. Comes with a little bit of everything. I finished the plate and felt full but not uncomfortable. The spring roll had a nice surprise sauce under it. The salad was refreshing but the pork was again perfect. The wife has been begging me to take her back soon. Location wise it works for the bar life but outside of that it can be a pain. Mainly parking is either pay and the rates are high for no reason. Not K-pop fault though. But it's a hole in the wall that will beat your expectations for sure! They also offer authentic Korean snacks, most I've had before but cool for those who want to try them.

I do not understand all of the 5 star ratings. This place is a disaster!…read moreFirst the AC was set to at least 80° if not higher. We were all sweating. We ordered the duck with with white rice. The duck was so overcooked and the skin so overly done that you couldn't even chew it. I didn't think it was possible to screw up white rice, but they managed to do it. It was hard as if it had been reheated with no taste. Next, we ordered the fried rice with chicken and shrimp. There was only three pieces of shrimp and three small pieces of chicken, so I asked if this was normal and they said yes, it was. Seriously, on a place that big, you can't put a little bit more shrimp or even chicken? The Pompano (which we ordered because they were already out of the red snapper at 5:30 in the afternoon), was also completely overcooked and dry. They also forgot to order our fish, so we had to ask about it when all the rest of the entrées showed up and I said that they forgot, so we had to wait another 30 minutes for the fish to show up. I'm still completely confused as to why this place was so packed, and all the positive reviews because the food was absolutely horrendous. Will definitely never return. And if for some reason you decide to try it and it's hot outside, make sure you show up in a swimsuit. Otherwise, you will be sweating the entire time.

The dessert drink was absolutely delicious. I waited for the shaved ice to melt a little bit so I can drink some of it and all the little fruits in there and the beans were absolutely so fresh and I really love the Ube in there. I'm one of those type of people that like to custom my drinks and food so next time I would probably omit some of the fruits in there and either add extra Ube or extra ice cream or something like that if they allow it. The service was exceptional. The folks behind the counter were absolutely super sweet. I know they're Filipino, but I literally felt like I was in Hawaii. The service was so incredible. I felt like I was in paradise.

The Filipiniana is a small, humble eatery that sits in a rather hidden plaza (it's hardly…read morenoticeable from the main road) along and at the crossroads of eastbound Waters Avenue and Dale Mabry. Like most other Filipino restaurants/cafe, there is a behind-the-counter, glass protected buffet at the forefront of the restaurant. From here, you can make your selections as you build your combination platter. The Filipiniana also offers a small section of baked goods and desert, while specializing in drinks such as Halo Halo and other Asian-curated beverages. Interesting to note that the Filipiniana offers catering in the kamayan style (simply put, a spread of various dishes over banana leaves to be shared by multiple people amd eaten with hands). However, they don't serve this in house/at the location - you will have to give advance notice (like with other caterers) to have this prepared. The Filipiniana is definitely a good spot to satiate your curiousity, explore, and discover Filipino cuisine!

True to the area, there are rooster figurines as well as cute flamingos and Lucky Cats, adding to the charm. The food was amazing; got our usual order ( from the Bradenton restaurant), but added veggie potstickers (yum yum!!), edamame ( mmm), chicken japchae (delish!!), salt and pepper chicken nuggets with roasted Thai basil garnish ( OMG, we affectionately call it "crack"!!!) with a fabulous jasmine milk tea . But the icing on the cake was the OUTSTANDING customer service, friendliness and hospitality by Amy.

The prices have increased quite a bit, but unfortunately the food quality seems to have declined, so it doesn't feel well balanced. Both the white and yellow rice were VERY dry, which took away from the dishes. we all could not finish our lunch . The mango sticky rice dessert was also not what I expected,..it wasn't the traditional style with at least half a fresh mango and sticky rice on the side, but instead fried rice in wonton wrappers with very small pieces of mango which are served in boba drinks . It didn't quite feel authentic or as light as I was hoping.
