As far as eating options is concerned, the malls offer you an embarrassment of riches. With too…read moremany options to choose from, the choosing gets more difficult. Where to go can become a rather difficult question. My family and I have faced this situation a good number of times and the record shows that in such cases Giligan's proved itself to be the appropriate choice. For us, it is important to be served not only delicious dishes; they must be healthy as well. Giligan's responds to this important consideration. Their menu offers a wide variety of dishes that includes chicken, pork, beef, seafood, vegetables, and dessert. That their prices are relatively affordable allows to climb the food pyramid with greater ease. Usually, health conscious people that we are, we order chicken, seafood, and vegetable dishes. We've tried quite a number them, but our favorites are their Chicken Binakol, Inihaw na Pusit, Grilled Salmon Belly, Vegetable Kare-Kare, Grilled Bangus, and Kalderetang Baka. If you are looking not only for what you want to eat but what you should eat, you wouldn't go wrong if you make it Giligan's.

The staff are all well-trained and food is served in no time. Area is clean with nipa huts for bigger groups.

The traditional recipes are the template, but KKK puts some twist to the meal by adding a new ingredient or making an unexpectedly great combination of various native foods. I've tried both time-honored Filipino dishes and some novel creations. All of them were revolutionary in some way. I remember liking the Kaldereta ni San Miguel which is the traditional caldereta but cooked with San Miguel Beer and the Tawilis ala Sardinas which is, if I assessed the food correctly, is grilled tawilis with fresh thick tomato sauce. I also praise KKK for coming up with Sisig Vegetarian which uses tokwa as its ingredient. Tastes good like a sisig minus the fat. Pleasantly surprising is the combination of suman and manga for dessert. Who knew that the two would have great chemistry? KKK is really doing a good job revolutionizing Filipino cuisine. Mabuhay ang KKK! Mabuhay ang pagkaing Pilipino!

The restaurant is part of the LJC Group of restaurants so it pretty much knows what it is doing. It offers mostly Kapampangan fare with a gourmet touch, so imagine the richness and strength Pampanga's cuisine is known and add a touch of sophistication. PROS: My SO and I went here for a date to celebrate something (I'm not sure what it was anymore, tbh.) and the place was perfect. It is intimate enough for good conversation and the ambiance was comfortable with its Filipino furniture and décor; The food is adequately filling and priced reasonably. The bagoong rice was actually good enough to be eaten on its own but we enjoyed its other offerings as well. CONS: it's a bit full during dinner rush on weekends so make sure you get a reservation so you can get seated immediately. TL;DR: Fresh and wonderfully cooked Kapampangan dishes to delight every taste bud.

Prepare yourself for a wait during a holiday weekend. Lunchtime hour was about a 25 minute wait. They had plenty of traditional Filipino dishes to try. The family combo was our final choice since our group was over 10ppl. Family combo was sure a great option to share. There was sinigang, karekare, seafood and bbq plate to stab at, gulaman, fried fish. Leche flan dessert was delicious. There was plenty of food with just a bit to take to go. Everyone had full bellies. (Whew at least there's that lol) Bathroom isn't appealing prepare yourself to get toilet paper at the cashier next to it. Broken stall but the stall next to it was fine. It's cool they have a hand washing sink just outside the bathroom, which is super convenient. The tastiest plate of the order was the sinigang. Everything else was good as well not so bad !

Chicken Parmesan - It's a rice meal with big boneless breaded chicken cooked well with meat still juicy soft inside. It is topped with pomodoro sauce and gooey cheese.

We love the at home feel inside when dining in. As for the food, it was very good. We did try the watermelon sinigang, it was a bit on the sweet side.
