Salo-salo serves pretty good and authentic Filipino food. My boyfriend and I have dined there on 3 different occasions and found the service to be very poor. We visited during off-peak hours, but still received very bad service. We were seated right away, but the server did not come to greet us promptly. On our last visit, we sat near the kitchen, and waited for our food for at least 45 minutes, while 2 other parties have come, were seated, served and gone. To add insult to injury, as we waited, a staff decided it was time to mop the floor, filling the air immediate to us with strong and almost offensive cleaning solution smell! Once the food came, the server did not bother to come back and ask how everything was until he brought the check over. I was very embarassed to bring my Caucasian boyfriend to this restaurant, being a Filipino myself, I know of our tradition to be very hospitable people. I'm not sure if the servers were not as hospitable towards us because of my companion's ethnicity. Though the food is good, the very bad service leaves a bad taste in my mouth! I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone expecting decent service!
Pros: authentic Filipino food
Cons: VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
