Uncle Mike's Place

Worth the wait, though it took way longer than estimated to get seated (over an hour when the estimate was 30 minutes). The breakfast was very very good, homey feeling with great savory flavor and well grilled meat. Every ingredient was quality and well treated and the pork was excellent (bangus was quite good as well). In my humble opinion it’s much better than Kasamas breakfast, which I found to be too sweet. That was not an issue here. Once inside the service was pretty good as well. A big pricey but where isn’t these days.

so good so yummy & 10/10 service!! went at 9am ish on a Saturday & didn't have to wait, was filling out quickly as we were eating. love the combo option to try different things, would've loved for the garlic rice to have a stronger garlic flavour & scent, worth a visit!!

It’s not typical to find many Filipino restaurants so it’s nice to have this downtown. The staff are very nice and doting. The atmosphere is nice and it’s a big place. Free street parking. I would say I would prefer to stick to the American menu here bc I hear good things about the food. As for the Filipino food menu…I had baby bangus fish (pacific milkfish) and garlic rice with eggs on top and chocolate pudding (I forget the actual name in Filipino) that comes with it for $14.95. Yes it was the smaller fish portion but there was so little fish that I sprinkled the lightly battered pieces on my rice like flavored garlic w fish rice. You get complimentary Lugaw which is rice porridge with a lemon embedded inside as soon as you sit down. My partner had Tocino (pork) w eggs and sides which he loved (I’m not a meat eater most of the time and I will eat fish so I will stick w non meat dishes which leaves vegetarians and vegans with few choices here). He loves it here as he loves pork dishes. So overall I would stick w the American breakfast or lunch food bc the choices for me were limited and the food portion for the fish was small. But I give the place 5 stars for having Filipino food choices for meat eaters and very nice staff and atmosphere. It’s a nice sit down experience.
