Eat At Davids - comfort food, and more!

Eat At Davids (Aquiles Serdan 380) -- the sign says "American Comfort Food", but it's more, with two daily specials, plus a short menu, and everything priced so right.
Eat At Davids was a new-to-us restaurant, tried for the first time during our recent December '11 stay. We dined there twice during this stay, first on a Wednesday (for the lasagna), and the second time on a Friday (for the fish & chips).
We both had the lasagna (100 pesos) - the entree came with a nice-sized caesar salad and garlic bread, portions were large, and very tasty. The fish and chips (90 pesos, or 120 pesos for "all you want to eat") - the fish was tempura-style battered tilapia (we were told), served with fries, and a large helping of cole slaw. The portions of fish and chips on the 90p plate, were a little smaller than we had expected, but they were well-prepared, and tasty. The cole slaw was a large serving, but for us, would require an acquired taste.
The daily specials (each week) are: Tue - fried chicken/meatloaf, Wed - spaghetti/lasagna, Thurs - chicken fried steak, Fri - fish & chips/pork chops, Sat - ribs/sirloin steak, Sun - pot roast.
This is a very small, cute and colourful place. Rosie (the Manager) is a delight, warm and friendly, and the service the same. It is very popular with local residents, and fills up rather quickly after it opens at 5pm, and especially so on Tuesdays and Fridays. It is closed on Mondays, otherwise, it's open from 5-11pm, Tuesday to Sunday.
