Problem: Talking about authentic filipino food! Coming from SoCal where there is a filipino restaurant in every "kanto"/corner, their food is really good. We had the sinigang na baboy, bistek tagalog, binagoongan and pinakbet, for desert we ordered the halo-halo and chocolate cake. They are delicious and the kids loved the halo-halo. Couldn't help eating too much rice with all those food. While eating we were entertained by a live band and you could even jam with the band and sing to your hearts content. The owners Tony and Tess are doing a great job catering to the filipinos there in Arizona. Too bad I missed the line dancing, that would have been fun! Oh, did I mention that they have a good selection of filipino pastries and bread? Wish I could come back there soon and try their ube cheese cake, it looks yummy!

Problem: We stopped in for a quick bite to eat before our show. Very impressed with how fast they were able to seat us, considering no reservations and a Saturday night. The bartender made sure we had a drink while we waited. Our server was unprofessional, not trained very well in customer service and lack luster with his service. They served our bread basket 30 minutes after we sat down and removed with in 10 minutes. Our chicken francaise was DISGUSTING. The very 1st bite was nothing but oil filled chicken. I have never had it prepared like that and I had to cut to the middle just to get some kind of decent bite of chicken. Our server took forever to check on us, was barley around when we needed our check and took forever again returning with our change. My stomach is still churning from that horrible display of food they called chicken francaise.

Problem: The best place to grab a drink in Mile-End. The staff are awesome. Nothing more needs to be said.

Problem: Jacs deserves the stars if only for how they ably handled our large group coming in without reservations at the end of the night. The waiter was friendly, attentive, and did a good job of explaining the selection to the group. He also handled check-splitting well, which made the end of the night that much easier. Excellent selection of beers, although definitely on the expensive side (nothing on tap under $5). Worth the price, however. The only food we had were the frites, which were a tad overcooked but tasty nonetheless. Looking forward to coming back with a much smaller group. Very similar to Brasserie V, except a darker ambiance and with more Wisconsin brews on tap.
