When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went. My family had spoken highly of Isla Grand and encouraged us to try the Filipino dishes we’ve been missing from back home. Lech...

Mom Violy's Favorite Italian Restaurant at Parmigiano

Mom Violy was telling Carmina she wanted to eat at her new favorite Italian restaurant. 

Mom Violy wanted to go early in the morning. 

Upon entering Parmigiano there was a lot of customers who are already inside eating where there were less employees serving at eleven in the morning.

Patience is the key and understanding their situation if you want to dine somewhere a place is new with promotion offer, we need to be considerate waiting for your turn.

It was a disappointment most items in the menu wasn't available. Make sure you have a second choice to see if the item is available. 

Mom Violy decided to share the 500 grams Rib Eye they had no mashed potato available. Mom Violy had ordered French fries with double order spinach for her sides. 

I ordered the Cannelloni Con Ricotta E Salmone Affumicato.

Family members had ordered Carbonara and Bolognese.



 Even though the meals we wanted to eat wasn't available we understand because the restaurant is newly opened and there is a promotion going on without having any stock doesn't mean we won't be coming back for more Italian food. 

After our meal we had notice there are a lot of people waiting for a table and we had made sure we would do the same asking for the bill and pack our leftover food. 

What is stopping you come and visit while there is a promotion until April 9, 2024, of 50% off.
