My mom, my son and I went to Saluhall SF to have lunch. Tried checking out the different restaurants. Fortunately, we found Izzy & Wooks. Cheryl was very friendly and accommodating. We ordered Inay’s BBQ Chicken Bowl and The Manong Sandwich along with Calamansi for beverage. We all love the packaging. Very artistically done and the foods were all delectable. Quite interesting is the fact that they put bitter melon on the sandwich. My son loved it! Calamansi with mint was good, too. Chicken was yummy along with the kimchi. Cheryl even gave us complimentary lumpias for us to taste. That was so very kind of her. She was friendly and has great customer service. I recommend this restaurant to you, guys if you are in the area. Cheryl also said that they are intending to also have halo-halo in the future. We told her we will be back. For me: the foods, the customer service and the very friendly gesture are all perfect-5/5. Thank you, Cheryl. You are one of a kind! ( Sorry, no photos were taken. We wanted to eat the foods right away, lol.)
I was really looking forward to trying this place, given the rave reviews I’ve read, such that I chose this over Smish Smash downstairs as I only had one meal in the city. However I found it just alright, perhaps because I ordered the wrong item. I tried The Manong since it sounded like the regular chicken sandwich with pork belly, and was also listed as the chef’s favorite. I found neither the chicken nor the pork belly particularly memorable.
Great fast option inside the food hall. So delicious and quick! Rice & veggie bowl with the BBQ pork belly. Beets were super fresh. I preferred the pork belly to my friend's chicken. Prepared so fast and was very tasty.
Just went to their new location (grand opening yesterday) on the second floor of Saluhall. Great vibes from a family owned restaurant. Crispy juicy fried chicken (thigh!) sandwich fresh lumpia! Can’t wait to go back!
