Ima's Kusina - Hayward

The food quality and authenticity at this restaurant are top-notch. Diners choose their items cafeteria-style, but the temperature of some dishes may vary. It seems like items at the bottom of the trays are warmer. My sinigang had the perfect temperature, while the fried rice and tocino were slightly lukewarm. Despite this, the flavors reminded me of home. I particularly enjoyed the pork sinigang and pork adobo. The portions were a bit small, but the prices were reasonable at $12 for a 2-choice combination. The cashier was welcoming and friendly. I will definitely return to try other dishes, hoping they will be fresh and hot next time.

As a frequent customer at this restaurant, I was very disappointed with my recent experience. I went to buy food for lunch during work, and when I ordered sisig, I immediately noticed a bad smell coming from the container. I asked others to smell it as well, and they agreed that the sisig had gone bad. When I confronted the worker, they tried to explain that the smell was from the vinegar and lemon used in the dish. However, as someone who is familiar with sisig and frequents this place often, I knew that the food was not fresh. I was disgusted by the poor quality of work and disappointed that the worker did not make an effort to address the issue properly. It was clear to me that the food had gone bad, and I will not be returning to this restaurant again.

I used this personal injury law firm after being in a car accident and I was extremely impressed with their services. They were very transparent and meticulous.

Make sure to inquire about the price of the dishes you order at this restaurant. They have a tendency to add additional charges for each item without informing you upfront.

However, I found the milkfish to be lumpy as it was breaded with flour, which made it less crispy than I would have liked. The carioca had a burnt and bitter taste due to the sweetener used, and the tortang talong had an aftertaste that seemed like it was cooked in different oil. Despite these issues, I still plan to order from this restaurant again.
