It had been too long since I had Filipino cooking, so I was eager to give Island Cuisine a try. It didn?t disappoint though... there is room for improvement in a few areas. Island Cuisine boasts a fairly extensive menu, offering everything from apps tonoodles (pancit) to rice bowls to various proteins to soups and more. You can do breakfast for dinner here, and there areseveral vegetarian options as well. For our first visit, my wife and I went with a meat lumpia, a pinakbet (Japanese eggplant,squash, green beans, and okra over rice), and a pork binagoongan (pork with pineapple in a coconut milk sauce). We didn?t havelong to wait for our food, and the pricing here (our entrees were in the $10 to $12 range) left no complaints. The food offeredmore hits than misses. The lumpia were quite thin but tasty and crispy. The vegetables in the pinakbet made for a vibrantmedley, and the Japanese eggplant in particular shined. The pork dish featured a very satisfying sauce that reminded me a bit ofa Panang curry. However, the accompanying sauteed zucchini was confusingly lukewarm. We'd also paid $3 extra to add fried porkbelly to the pinakbet, and it proved very dry. Overall, Island Cuisine offers a good change-of-pace, and I will keep it in mindthe next time a Filipino craving hits. Read more

Fantastic first experience with Island Cuisine. We all loved our meals and the lumpia - both veggie and with meat. Pork fried... rice was delicious. Nice place and we?ll definitely go back! Update - already went back a few days later and once again lovedit! Pork Sisig is absolutely fantastic! Read more

Island Cuisine Filipino is a very interesting new cuisine option in the Triad. We stopped by today for a takeout meal. We... loved the new flavors, freshly prepared options offered here. Our order included: Meat Lumpia appetizer, sweet and sour chickenand Sissig (pork) with two fried eggs. If you are looking for a new Asian cuisine option (current regular favs equal Chinese,Japanese, Indian and Thai) We recommend giving this spot a try! Read more

My husband and I enjoyed our dinner here this evening. This is a place you order at front counter and get called when your food... is ready. The flavors were good. I had the Pancit Bahon and my husband had the adobo chicken. We also shared an appetizer oflumpia. Read more

Fantastic family-owned restaurant with authentic Filipino dishes! Our large party arrived close to their closing time, but the... couple who run the place were friendly and accommodating. They prepared the dishes family style, instead of the normalindividual portions with rice. Don't forget to leave room for dessert! Read more

I read the reviews and the pics of the food looked so yummy!! I ordered the Vegetable lumpia and lechon kawali. The vegetable... lumpia was good, and it's fried egg rolls with vegetables inside. The sauce that came with it has a very strong vinegar taste,which I don't like. I'm not a big fan of vinegar. The lechon kawali was good, but some pieces were way over fried that made itharder than it should. The pork belly was a little too fried that, it tasted good if I eat the entire piece at once, nit bitingthe skin, fat and meat separately. In some pieces, the meat portion was a little dry. Overall, it was good. I didn't expect thisrestaurant is a fast food style restaurant. For fast food, it's good. I would come back and try other dishes if I'm in the areaagain. The young lady at the counter was very polite and helpful.... I just microwaved the leftover. The pork belly tastedbetter. It's softer. Read more
