Good food but really crowded but I guess that's why it was crowded

Even though they have so many customers, they could still able to attend all of them. So satisfied!

just like all mang inasal. this brunch also taste like what mang inasal is offering BUT during lunch time, the queue tends to get sooo long. then line on the register is long but the waiting to be seated is longer. so i guess if you don't want to wait then you have to avoid this branch. but why do these people (including me) endure the long lines and the long wait? what do you think is the answer 5o this "mystery". is their food different from other branches? i guess you have to find out for yourselves! but on other times. this branch isn't that crowded and has lots of free seats. try it out. and i think they are renovating for some expansion and that means more tables. try the rush hour noon time queue too if you dare

The facilities are in excellent condition, from the tables and chairs to the comfort rooms, showing that the management prioritizes customer comfort and satisfaction. What stood out most to me is their effort to be inclusive and accessible. The restaurant has a ramp for PWD customers, making it easier for people in wheelchairs or those with mobility concerns to enter and enjoy their meal without hassle.

Service Depends on the Location, it differs everytime i visit one. But the food is consistent, nothing so special, pretty basic, pang tanggal gutom lang talaga. Price can be unreasonable but ill give it to the smiling faces of the food crews and unli rice.

One of the best things about Mang Inasal is their unlimited rice, which many customers enjoy because it makes the meal more satisfying and worth the price. They also offer other Filipino dishes such as pork barbecue, halo-halo, and sisig.

Still the same Mang Inasal you'll find anywhere in the Philippines.
