Point-Point
DESCRIPTION: If you blink while driving down Lincoln you might miss this place. Small and ultra-casual, most of the people who frequent this place are Filipino ex-pats looking for a cheap fix of home-cooked food. There is no menu at this place - you just stand at the counter and point to what you want - it helps to know a bit about Filipino food. Sampaguita offers favorites like adobo, lechon kawali, dinuguan (goat's blood) served with rice. Merienda (snack) offerings like pancit palabok and leche flan are also available. If you know your Filipino eats - you should give Sampaguita Fil-Am a try - if you're a novice, test your wings elsewhere first before coming here!

Great Food - Bad Music
DESCRIPTION: The food was really good - but what's up with that music? It made my kids cry and they can sleep through all the death metal concerts we take them to.

Delicious Food - Generous Portions
DESCRIPTION: I usually order combination plates off the steam table, and that's pretty good. However, this time I ordered black pepper pork chops off their Chinese menu, and I was totally impressed! The entree came with a choice of steamed rice, fried rice, chow mein, or pansit. I chose the chow mein, which the server promptly served my starving son in a cute metal bowl that looked like a wok. When the pork chops arrived soon after, the enormous portion surprised me. They were absolutely delicious with sliced onions, green onions, and lots of garlic. I have enough leftovers to take home for dinner for two! My friend ordered the "Big Island" off the Hawaiian menu, and it consisted of marinated grilled pork, boneless chicken, and beef short ribs accompanied by two scoops of steamed rice, a scoop of macaroni salad, and a slice of pineapple. Her entree's portion was also quite good, but not as enormous as my black pepper pork chops. The beef short ribs were the most delicious of her combination plate. The macaroni salad was laden with lots of mayonnaise and was only so-so. All in all, this is a great restaurant with friendly staff and wonderful food.
