I had a great experience at Fakas Island Grill. The food was delicious, and the ube tiramisu was incredible good… I’m sad it’s been removed from the menu because it was just that good :(
One thing I like to do at new restaurants is ask for food recommendations. While Robert could’ve given me a recommendation based on the most popular food item, he took the time to ask what kinds of flavors I enjoy before recommending something based on my answers. I appreciated this attentiveness a lot.
I like the community they have at this location. It seemed like all the surrounding shops knew of each other and maintained a good relationship. While I ate, I’d see everyone interacting with other using inside jokes, which was a cool vibe to witness. I think the atmosphere and food quality are more than enough reason for me to revisit!

Rice undercooked. Somehow overcooked the katsu, it was borderline black. Sauce was good. Mac salad disappointing.

I got the 2 protein mixplate and I'll be honest, it wasn't as good as I initially thought it'd be. I ordered sweet chili garlic shrimp and honey sesamue katsu, but dear god was it EXTREMELY salty to the point it made my stomach hurt. The sweet chili garlic shrimp was just disappointing. The only filling part about this dish was the rice, and the amount of white rice that they put in the plate. The mac salad was also disappointing, salty and just really disgusting. I've eaten here for around 5 years on and off and completely stopped after the porkbelly was removed for shredded pork. Came back just to be even more disappointed. Idk I know it's harsh but damn this place has changed a lot.
