$17 dollars for the small portion of CALAMARI way to expensive now and less. I stop buying food to this place I used to love this place (GAPO RESTO) I guess different owner now and also is not the same food

This place seems popular for parties that like karaoke. I tried calling to order my food togo, but i could not get an answer. I wanted to hate the place, but the food was really good. I got the sisig, garlic fried rice, and pancit. I will be back for the sisig and garlic rice for sure.

I am generous when it comes to Filipino business, but 4 stars is good enough as I was surprised with the way the Tapsilog comes out, the tapa is kind of hard, its like its been fried previously and refried it again, and its just a bit too small for that price, Kare Kare is fine but Wondering why the torta doesnt even have any ground beef, when it is torta it means it comes with meat, It is not torta but Boiled fried eggplant. So on the 3 order I made only 1 is good the way I see it.

I came here for my birthday celebration with my cousins. This place is so fun! It totally makes you feel as if you were IN the Philippines. The employees were so nice and patient with us - we were a huge party. We sang and dance to the Karaoke music, and they even had a Happy Birthday sign for us. It was so cute! The food was really good! My favorite was their pancit canton and the tokwat baboy.

The service of the waitress was terrible, she always frowned. You are talking, you will turn your back, you will ask questions, he will be angry, he will scold you, you will turn your eyes. Ok The food is delicious, the other staff are kind, especially Ms. Gina, she is very sweet, she is energetic, very welcoming..

Authentic Pilipino cuisine. Great entertainment and a fun place to celebrate birthdays. My daughter likes the chicken sinigang. Husband likes the calamari.

They were so nice to my mom when we came - calling her ate and singing songs for her that she had requested; as my mom is super shy. The food was really good - better than titas! My mom even said it reminded her of home. My mom is my world and she had the best time here, so thanks for such a great experience! I will be back.

THE FOOD WAS BOMB! We stopped by to celebrate a birthday tonight (Thursday night) and we walked in right in the middle of karaoke. We sang along and did exceptional back up vocals, and one hell of a clap along! Excellent food, excellent service, excellent energy! Will be back.

After searching for a vegetarian/pescatarian friendly spot open after 7pm, I popped into Las Islas Filipinas to give it a try. I was warmly greeted by staff and seated right away. I met Susan, the owner, who was so friendly and helpful with recommendations on what to order. This is THE SPOT for some post-work karaoke! I was asked by staff if I wanted to sing and was handed a slip of paper/pencil to fill out my song request. Although I didn't sing, I had a great time listening to all the folks that did; many of whom had such incredible voices! I would like to note, for folks who have hearing sensitivities, to come prepared with hearing protection/ear plugs, as the music volume is cranked up during later hours. (Protect your precious hearing!)I ordered the noodles with seafood and had also tried the fried calamari and the Bangus sisig. The crispy calamari with the accompanying sauce was simply delicious and the bangus sisig was also fresh and tasty. I would've preferred the noodles to have a bit of spice to them, but they were good overall. The seafood was fresh and I had a great experience!

Lora of bday party fun with the lice dj and karaoke party vibes! Impressed with the selection of song and the audience skill level. The lot is dark and scary but if you’re aware of this place then you’re good . I just happened to miss it the first drive by due to the darkness.

Had an awful experience here on a Friday night. I wish I could speak about the quality of the food, but the truth is I can't because my family and I left the restaurant after waiting an hour for our order before we decided to leave. We ordered 4 items -- the sizzling sisig, kare kare, garlic rice and sizzling calamari, and not a single one of them rolled out within the hour. Before we decided to leave, we asked our server how much longer the food would be, and we were told that they haven't even started on our food and that other tables' orders were still ahead of ours. That's when we decided to just pay for our drinks and leave. I'm sure the quality of the food is good based on other reviews but management has to get it together. I get it, it's a busy night but you have to know how to manage crowds, and you most certainly shouldn't be telling your patrons that the food will be just a bit longer when the kitchen hasn't even started on your orders after an entire hour.
