"We ordered the pork sisig, kare kare, and the native chicken, and aligue rice. All were cooked to perfection and great portion sizes. Usually good for 2 but we still had some left overs that we took home. I would highly recommend and would love to go back. You will not be disappointed."

"I am grateful we had lunch at Lola Ima! This is the most affordable buffet I have tried and boy, it was worth it! Their service was quick and accommodating to its customers. There were a lot of tasty Filipino foods and desserts. I love the place, it brings so much nostalgia to the early days of the Philippines. This place is something I would go back to and recommend to my loved ones."

"Was able to avail of the 260 pesos lunch buffet offer which offered a great selection of Kapampangan and Filipino dishes, including desserts like halo halo and juice drinks like gulaman. The shrimps were fresh and delicious, the pork sisig is authentic, and the kare-kare and bringhi taste like what is served at typical fiestas. The lush greeneries and interior with lanterns are a plus."

"Well Lola Ima is one of the cheapest buffet I had in Pampanga. With a price of 260 for Lunch and 299 for Dinner. It is definitely worth the buck. We came in for their Lunch service and their food choices are sufficient on what you’ve paid for. There are lots of customer at that time and still Lola Ima was able to accommodate us. There are 2 choices for soup which are sinigang and tahong. They also serve salad, fried and plain rice, pansit canton, pork kare kare, honey glazed chicken, pitchachon which is sort of chicharon, fish fillet and my favorite ginataang kuhol. Their dessert has three choices which are lelut mais and ginataan if im not mistaken. You can also make your own halo halo. Free flowing drinks are also included. Overall food quality is good considering the price that we’ve paid. They also cater events on which you can rent it out for your personal events. Accepts cash and card payments. Wide parking area."

"The place is easy to locate.. just take the way of the old paskuhan village, and you will not get lost as signage is posted on the street. The place is so nice,lots of mango trees that give you shades safe parking as well with attentive security guards. Once you enter the restaurant, you will find some Filipinos delicacies that are good for pasalubong. You need to pay first before having the buffet. The price is budget friendly 299 for the dinner buffet and its unlimited. I have posted the food they have for that day. All are nice and sumptuous. They have dessert corner as well, with make your own halo halo Staff are friendly as well and ready to assist all your needs and inquiries. Aside from the restaurant, they have a coffee shop as well but haven't tried it as we were so full after the unlimited dinner, but next time, for sure, we will."
