Massive portion of chicken for the price, juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, with great flavor. I wish there was chicken oil, but the sinamak/soy sauce dip was great. For dessert, I ordered the ube carioca, with a crunchy exterior and chewy interior. Service was attentive and while the restaurant was fairly busy for a Saturday lunch, there were a handful of tables and bar seating available for walk ins. Free parking in the outside lot.

Apparently, the original Asian couple no longer owns this and new owners took over fairly recently. Things are still being organized as they say, a lot of products don't have prices or they are in different places so it's kind of a surprise bill when you go to the register. I'd say it's a little bit on the expensive side for example compared to Saraga International. But for a quick thing or two this store can be handy. It also connected to the Asian eatery. No fresh produce here, a lot of canned goods, snacks and frozen items.

Added 2 pork lumpias to make the entire meal a 5/5! The pork belly was packed with flavour and perfectly grilled/ cooked. The roasted corn was sweet and mixed with tomatoes and parsley. The slaw added a great crunch to the meal. Lumpias were fried nice and golden brown with a sweet chili dipping sauce on the side. Overall I loved eating this, especially when you get a little bit of each item as one bite - delicious! Also got a drink of zero sugar 7up and was pleasantly surprised at how good it tasted. Love that they offered a zero sugar soda option. Would probably get this again even with the abundance of other food options in this food hall, as the flavours were so jam packed!

They use a text message system to notify when food is ready. Seating is available around the food hall, and there is a serve your own water station by the bar.

I've actually become pretty fond of Filipino food thanks to a good friend who cooks it regularly, so I was excited--but admittedly a little skeptical about what I was going to find in Parkersburg. Then I walked in, saw the Filipino owner and an all-Filipino staff, and immediately thought... okay, I'm in good hands. And I was right. The food was excellent. The pork adobo? The pancit? The lumpia? Absolutely hit the mark. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and tasted like someone actually cared about what was coming out of that kitchen. And the owner deserves a shoutout. She is an absolute ball of energy and incredibly sweet. The kind of person who makes you feel welcome the second you walk through the door. I'm pretty sure you could drive 20 miles in either direction and struggle to find food this flavorful. Parkersburg has an unexpected hidden gem on its hands. If you're anywhere remotely close, Philippines Best is worth the stop.

The pork adobo was the star of the show- the pork itself was insanely flavorful and fall-apart tender. The sauce was flavored just right, and it went perfectly with the rice! The only slight disappointment was the lumpia- it had only beef in it, instead of meat and vegetables as my husband and I were used to, so it was quite dry. Thankfully, the slightly spicy sauce on the side helped a lot with that! I cannot speak to the service since our order was takeout, but I would love to eat in-restaurant next time around.

Quick and attentive service. We started with crispy dumplings (6), crispy egg rolls (2), and a scallion pancake. Bing, their crepe, wasn't available our night. My dining companions loved the pancake - for me perhaps a bit too much drizzled sauce. It was helpfully quartered when brought to the table so sharing was easy. The dumplings were indeed crispy and probably my favorite with a standard dark dipping sauce. The egg rolls were standard and perhaps a bit undersized and over fried, but a good creamy dipping sauce was a pivot away from the sweet chili sauce that usually accompanies such apps. Ramen is clearly the focus of the menu and three of us had ramen with chicken and one with pork. They spoke favorably of the broth and the combos of mushrooms, boiled egg, greens. I had the rice vermicelli with chicken that they called a salad. I was expecting the classic Vietnamese staple but this one had some adaptations, perhaps to a fusion or one might say less ethnic nod. Small things but the ample portion served in a small bowl made it hard to mix the rice noodles, lettuce, carrot, cucumber and chicken that is a common approach to the dish after drowning all the ingredients in both sweet sauce (nuoc cham), siracha and/or hoisin sauce. It only came with the nuoc cham. They brought Siracha when I asked for it, but I'm a fan of having these condiments on the table standard. Again, had the sense that the business lunch crowd that is probably the primary audience isn't likely to be as focused on the more authentic ingredients. The chicken was also not grilled and sliced but had a pleasant preparation. Just know it won't be the charred flavor that is so common. Finally, not to obsess on this one dish, but cutting the lettuce leaves more would enable easier chop sticks combos of the ingredients in single bites. Overall it worked for us. I am definitely the most focused on (my companions would say obsessed) on connection to what these dishes should be. If adaptations work well for you, Tiger+Lily likely will as well.
