This diner, known as Makati's Riverdale, is the place to go if you want to experience the life in 1950s and 1970s. I'd say that the interior design and music have truly delighted and impressed me. I am an old soul, so I appreciate things like this - classic songs/music, cool memorabilia, waitresses dressed like those in old diners in the United States, I love everything vintage!
Location – Located in Makati's red light district. We walked from our office to this restaurant. If you plan on driving, please keep in mind that parking is limited; better take a cab or walk if you live nearby.
Ambiance/Vibe –
The interior is visually amazing. The space is enormous, but by 8 p.m., it is nearly full! Instagram-worthy!
Service/Staff –
very friendly and attentive. special thanks to Nathan for assisting us, taking photos, and always keeping an eye on us.
Food – Good, but nothing out of the ordinary. It's basically the same food you can get at any other restaurant in the metro.

Price – For me
it’s really pricey – as mentioned there’s nothing special about the food. I checked the nearby tables, and the majority of them had milk shakes and nachos only.
Garlic
Shrimp Diablo (I guess we only have 6pcs of shrimps) – Php 383.00
Chicken
Soup (just a cup, {not bowl} of soup, not even good for sharing hehehe) –
Php 128.00
Rice (Pork
Adobo Flakes) – Php 293.00
Lechon
Kawali (look the pic how small the serving is) – Php303.00
Mango
Freeze – Php135.00 *this is a must-try
The overall experience has been fantastic. If you're looking for a great place to relax (or perhaps travel back in time), I highly recommend Filling Station. However, if you're like me and want great food that's worth every penny, this isn't the place for you. *peace!
