That said, we were not like sardines in a tin, we were comfortable in the space we had. It is probably relevant, though, to mention that two of the 3 people in our party were very small Filipinas. The entrees were excellent. Those were, in no particular order, lechon, Bicol Express and pork belly. We also got a large side of lumpia, which was not bad, but rather, decidedly average, so it suffered in comparison to the superb entrees. Additionally, they sliced it into small diagonal-cut (think of the way ziti pasta is cut) pieces, which I imagine was done for the sake of presentation, but I didn't find it visually appealing in the least. No matter, it's a mere trifle compared to the overall meal. The Sapin Sapin dessert was also fantastic, and somehow we made room for that after eating the generous entrees. The service was attentive and professional without being overbearing. Definitely coming back here again, and so are the two Filipinas (Tacloban and Mindanao). I think that sums it up neatly, right?

We decided to try this place because we wanted something different and were excited after seeing…read moreall the good reviews. Unfortunately, our experience started off on the wrong foot because of the customer service. The guy taking our order was not very pleasant and gave us a reluctant vibe from the beginning. When we try a new place, we usually order several different dishes so we can get a good variety of what they have to offer. We ordered three plates, and he asked, "How many people are you ordering for because you already have three plates?" That comment didn't sit right with us, but we let it go. As we continued ordering different items, he made more awkward comments, including, "Are you sure you want that? It's the same thing, just made differently." We honestly didn't understand why he was trying to discourage us from ordering. If someone is willing to pay for the food, why try to talk them out of buying it? It left us feeling very unwelcome. We waited nearly 30 minutes for our food, which we understood because we ordered a good amount. But when the food came out, there were no pleasantries or anything that made us feel welcomed as customers. Unfortunately, the customer service completely overshadowed the experience for us. Customer service is a big pet peeve of mine. If I feel like I'm being treated unpleasantly or made to feel unwelcome, I'm not likely to return. Safe to say, we will not be going back. As for the restaurant itself, it is very small. There were only about two tables inside, along with some outdoor seating, so I would not recommend it for larger groups. Three people would probably be the most comfortable for the indoor space. The food itself was okay. Honestly, I think we may have rated it higher if we had a better experience with the customer service. The two dishes we really enjoyed were the dinuguan and laing. They also give a good portion of rice. Unfortunately, when you combine the food with the customer service and the very limited indoor seating, this just wasn't a place we would return to. **Customer Service: 1/10** **Inside/Seating: 1/10** **Food: 5/10**

A stranger recommended Kuya's to me and said it was the best Hawaiian food he'd had. Unfortunately…read moremy experience wasn't the same. The restaurant is pretty nondescript and parking is very limited. I ordered the Hawaiian combo with Huli Huli chicken and teriyaki chicken. All meals come with rice and mac salad. The mac salad was really good. Like hmm 4.5 outta 5 stars. Both chicken dishes were just meh. The chicken alone had very little to no flavor all the flavor came from the sauce which wasn't anything special. The serving size was good but the flavor was lacking so I probably won't try them again.

There were some good food choices, but some bad ones too (including some listed on their on-line menu that wasn't available), and the service was the opposite of friendly. Fork and Spoon was listed as one of the best Filipino restaurants in the Portland area. I wanted to go some place where the food was made-to-order. After looking at their really colorful and put together website, saw that they had dishes like Humba and Champurrado, along with what looked like Chicken Inasal. We found free street parking right in front. I noticed the sign that stated no public bathroom was available. The inside was very quiet, with one couple quieting eating their food, and an older non-customer gentleman minding his own business. We were taken to a table near a window, and given a menu. It's a very simple one, and none of the dishes I was looking for were listed. I asked the hostess/server about it, and she just shrugged and basically told me she had no idea. Yeah... So I reset, and ordered the things that we always order at a Filipino restaurant. COMBO Meal ($23) - Consisting of Pork Adobo, Rice, Bihon style pancit, and shangahi lumpia. The steamed rice was excellent...sounds goofy to say, but have had so much bad white rice at restaurants lately. The pork adobo was good, using very fatty pieces of pork, but cooked to be very tender without being mushy, and the strong sauce was great over the rice. I liked the pancit, with the large vegetable pieces and it worked since it had been made-to-order. But the lumpia was bad: it had been deep fried from frozen, and the center was still cold. Plus, the meat had been ground too finely, causing the filling to be mealy. Pork BBQ Skewer ($17) - three skewers of pork barbeque. It was thinly sliced and expertly skewered, but that's where the goodness ended. The sauce wasn't good, just a very weak teriyaki type sauce. The meat had quite a bit of gristle (which is OK with me if it has flavor, but this did not). It had been cooked on a flattop grill so missed the charring of the meat over fire. It just tasted old, like it had been reheated Have no idea why this is $17...the price fooled me into thinking this would be a 'deluxe' version of this classic...should be closer to $7.50, especially since it was served as an app (no rice or sides). Halo-Halo ($9) - a shareable ice cream dish, topped with a scoop of really good ube ice cream and a shower of fruity pebbles. It came with a piece of leche flan and various sweet beans and jelly at the bottom. I really liked this. My only wish was that it was made with shaved ice instead of crushed ice, but I understand it can be too time consuming. It just felt like we came to a place on a day (or time) when everyone was just trying to get through the day. The prices were good (except for the BBQ), and the portions decent. But along with unfriendly service and the hit/miss taste, it's a place I wouldn't go out of my way for (even though I love the name and their website).

This shop shares a nice open space with a pretty home garden-type store. Not sure how to describe it but just super-comfy. The service was genuinely friendly and prompt. We were tempted by very colorful ube and pandan flavored baked goods in all their purple glory. There were even some savoury baked items, but we stuck to a Halo halo dessert drink. Lovely and tasty sweet treat, a good portion perfect to share in a sunlit cafe after a few hours shopping & browsing. For those unfamiliar with halo halo, it's basically a mix of candied fruits & sweet beans, ube ice cream, evaporated milk, and chipped ice. Presentation was among the best I've seen. This is a must-visit shop if you're looking for snacks that are different & not too sweet.
