Lolo And Lola - Canberra

Landed there to get halohalo. was happy after our holiday on the philippines a few years ago. it was a damn good halo! the staff were super friendly and everything was safely treated in a covid.

The Best Filipino restaurant in Australia I have ever been! Tastes like home. Very tidy, friendly staff and prompt service. The food are all rich in flavors. I am amazed in how they were able to use Australian ingredients and still retain the Filipino flavours. I really really hope they branch out to Sydney.

We met at with friends for lunch at Lolo and Lola Grandfather Grand Mother . We had a lot to eat and all delicious. I particular eat the whole BBQ Pork Ribs Outstanding!

A lot of overhyped reviews on here but is definitely is a good restaurant: good service, tasty food and reasonable portion sizes. The menu is fairly concise and easy to order from. I forgot there were additional dessert options up the front in their display window. 3 caveats: They have an electronic ordering system, even for customers who are dining in. This makes ordering additional items a chore. If you want an extra drink, you have to go through the whole rigmarole of punching in your email and card details. Some dishes are dry, and need extra sauce. The steamed Barramundi was great, it was stuffed with a few tomatoes but more sauce or toppings would have been nice. Same with the pork belly dish it was very dry. They did provide a vinegar dressing but what if you didn't want vinegar? I asked if they had chilli sauce or something like that, and they kindly provided fresh chili. I wouldn't take any vegetarian or vegan friends here. There are limited options for them. I would like to visit again to try the authentic dishes, especially the desserts.

Had a very nice prawn and pumpkin curry. The service was good. I was by nyself and had chosen the Ribs with bbq banana glaze, but they are served straight up with nothing else and there were no vegie or salad side dishes available. Didn't fancy just meat for dinner. I like the jar of sanitizer on every table.
