I always love Palabok. But this time, their palabok taste that something is missing... it lacks the taste of "tinapa" smoke fish. And for the price, I think it is pricey. We opt for a combo meal, rice and 2 choice of viands. It's just fine. Nothing special.

I'd like to start off by saying I have never had Filipino food so I have nothing to compare it to…read more I was not sure what to expect. The lady there was very kind and allowed me to try out a few dishes. My favorite was the beef and the pancit. I like the pork too, but it was a bit spicy for me and I thought it would be better once I got home and had something to drink with it, but it didn't help much. I really liked the dessert. She told me to try it cold and then to warm it up. I have to say that I liked it both ways. If I'm ever in the area again, I will definitely stop for more of the beef and pancit.

We ordered the pork egg rolls, chicken with salted fish with eggplants, and beef with Chinese broccoli with flat noodles. The food was good. I like how they pan fried my flat noodles to crunchy texture. The chicken with salted fish eggplant was not too salty and it was good with the rice. The place was clean. The owner was nice and friendly. The service was a little slow because she was the only one taking orders and serving food. I would definitely be back to try their other dish.

Sorry, if a white person says this place is super authentic, I take that with a grain of salt. lol. We took a gamble and decided to come here since they close at 9 pm. They were located in a small strip mall next to Priya's Kitchen. Ample parking. They have a handful of tables like 7-8 give or take? Surprisingly, it was really busy on a Wed night approximately an hour before close. Service was good. It looked like a mom and pop shop so the husband was in the back cooking and the wife was the only server. I know people said slow service but there was only one server and like 8 full tables. We ordered pork egg rolls, chicken w salted fish and eggplant, and beef with Chinese broccoli over chow fun. Pork egg rolls are the same as elsewhere. The chicken w salted fish and eggplant was very tasty and make sure you eat it with the rice. The beef with Chinese broccoli over chow fun was delicious. I like how those wide, flat noodles came out crunchy and chewy. Both portions were generous. Prices weren't bad. I wouldn't mind coming back to try something else.

I finally got around to trying this place. This would easily be a 5 star review if the hours in the…read moreevening weren't so short. They close at 6:30 pm most of the days and Sunday is even shorter. This is mostly for breakfast and lunch. I came here on a Tuesday morning after 10:35 am. It's a small grocery store and restaurant in one. The staff was kind and attentive. Be patient on a weekday since there is one person serving you and I believe the owner cooking. It's in a strip mall so parking is no issue. They have food that is on display and you can take them to go. You can also dine in. I ordered long silog and calamansi iced tea. I also ordered pork lumpias but they weren't ready by the time I finished eating. The portions for breakfast were sufficient. The garlic rice and pickled veggies evened out the sweetness of the pork sausage. The calamansi iced tea had some tartness from the calamansi and was also refreshing after the meal. I got some food to go. The pork lumpias were crispy and tasty when fresh. The grilled chicken and the chicken in the soup were dry and bland. I'm not sure how long they were there for them to dry out. The fried chicken was juicy. The beef skewers and sisig were good. Definitely eat those with rice. They also have a brunch buffet on the weekends. I'm not sure how busy that is but I prefer no crowds on the weekday. This is about a 4. That's only because of the short dinner hours and the dried chicken. I'm not a fan of chewy chicken.

This is my parents go to Chinese food spot so I practically grew up eating this. My favorites are the combination fried rice but I have been doing the yang zhou fried rice lately. You also can't go wrong with their salt and pepper smelt or pork. Both are equally good! My go to dish that I can't get anywhere else is their seafood combination ho fun. I swear I can eat that all by myself. Everything about it is so satisfying. If you want to start out with soup, definitely recommend their seaweed soup. It's very hearty and satisfying.

I used to think of Standard Market Grill as a spot I could count on for some "good vibes" and a…read moregood meal. I just revisited this spot after a few years, and to my (unpleasant) surprise, it was nothing like I remembered. Severely underwhelming. What used to be an old (neighborhood) favorite has turned into a tired place, in desperate need of a "refresh." This spot was DIRTY. The run-down, plastic "water cups" are hanging on for dear life. The wine glasses we received were covered in dust and hair. I couldn't even bring myself to drink the wine I had purchased because of the HAIR and DUST floating around in it. It's clear that the hygiene of Standard Market Grill is NOT up to par. I really wanted the food to make up for the rest, but sadly, it didn't. The food here was painfully average. The "Don" pizza lacks flavor, and its dough is comparable to that of the cardboard-like pizza I used to be served at my school cafeteria. The only thing we enjoyed was the Sweet Potato Fries -- crispy on the outside and soft on the inside -- paired perfectly with the Garlic Aioli served alongside them. Service was okay. Sure, generally speaking, the "ambiance" of this spot is pleasant. But there are too many negatives, which strongly outweigh the few positives.

It looks like they typically have lots of good food options, e.g., great variety. I would recommend this store to others who may be interested.
