It was bomb and tasted slightly buttery. I also got one of the bagels. They make the bagels in house and you can tell. Plus they stack the toppings and don't short anything, which is nice.

Hi-Fi is a little coffee shop located on PCH. It's tucked away and if you aren't looking for it,…read morecan miss it. There is minimal seating indoor and outdoors. Parking isn't the best but there is a small lot in back that is available. We ordered the Chai and Honey Latte. The Chai latte was well balanced, not overly sweet or overpowering. The Honey Latte was bright and had a hint of honey but the milk overpowered the espresso. Another downside was that they didn't have almond milk (not sure if they don't carry it regularly or if it was just the day we came that they didn't have it). Prices are a tad inflated. The service was quick but not the most friendly/welcoming.

Pretty sad I spent $15 on 2 coffees and neither of us drank them.

High five for HiFi Kitchen!…read more Located a block away from the Historic Filipinotown arch, this cozy spot is worth a stop. I finally had the chance to visit this brick-and-mortar after experiencing their food on two occasions. Once was at a catered event at SIPA, and another was at a pop-up at FPAC. During that catered event at SIPA, I had the Vegetarian HiFi Sisig which has tofu, eggplant, & shiitake, onions, peppers, and vegan mayo. I was obsessed with how good this was and was hoping there would be leftover for baon. But I also didn't want to be greedy...lol! Then at FPAC, they offered Veggie Sisig Tacos. Similar ingredients, except in a corn tortilla. Again, obsessed! https://yelp.to/b419aFUgE- Craving that yummy sisig, I walked into HiFI Kitchen's brick-and-mortar, eager to partake once again. Sadly, they were out of tofu. But the gal behind the counter was willing to modify by going extra on the veggies for my Vegetarian HiFi Sisig bowl. At first glance the portion size didn't quite meet my expectation of what I would consider a $17 veggie bowl that lacked tofu and nixed the egg, but it was surprisingly filling! And maraming masarap! https://yelp.to/tW6yKt2uDg Also masarap is the Pandan Horchata Latte. Yum! https://yelp.to/prcFhvC2jO Staff is very helpful. The decor embraces the hifi theme (high fidelity in this case) of old media such as using an audio tape case to store napkins and utensils, or having a VHS tape rewinder mounted on the wall. There's a single table indoors, bar-height counter for extra dining, and a few more tables out front. When I arrived, there was a family of 3 in there. By the time I sat down, three parties of 2 formed a line at the register. Popular spot! Street parking was fairly easy at 1pm on a Saturday. Would easily make a stop here anytime I'm in HiFi. Happy to support a small Filipino business :)

The staff were nice and you mainly order at the kiosk up front! The interior was smaller than I thought it was, so theres only a bit of seating inside. We ordered the Vegetarian Sisig and the Vegetable Lumpia! The sisig was absolutely delicious! I really loved the bit of atchara it came with and what sauce the vegetables were coated in. The crema on top was also a nice touch of flavor! The vegetable lumpia took me by surprise because it wasn't a typical filling for vegetable lumpia I've usually had. It looked like it had squash and green beans in it and Im not sure what else. It was pretty good though! I will say it is a bit on pricier side and the portions aren't too big. Overall, great experience and the food was superb!

Mine were both giving a loud buzz from one channel and I was sick of the grounding wire, so I figured it was time to get them internally grounded. One of the lights was burned out as well. Dropped them off on a Saturday and picked em up on Tuesday. They're both back to great working order. Great communication (texts to let me know they were ready and questions if they had any). It's nice to see a place still going and doing it. Although I bought them way back when you could get a set of 2 for under $500 (good luck getting ONE for that now) I can't be mad at the price for the service.
