This is a Filipino restaurant that I want to see succeed. The reason is because of their standards. Yes, the decor of the dining area needs to be more presentable but this is one of the best Filipino restaurant in the Lower Mainland. There is no pre-made food being shown on order with the exception of packaged food (Filipino breadand hopia). The dining food is ACTUALLY prepared on order in the kitchen. Compared to other Filipino restaurants, this is a decent place to Dine in. They serve with plates and NOT paper plates like the restaurants in Guildford and Fleetwood. Hopefully, more non-Filipinos will show up to this place and try this food. I will come back.Dietary restrictions: Serve peanuts but are peanut conscious.

I will be as fair as I can. We dined-in 6pm Sunday evening as we are in a habit of supporting family owned restaurants in our city. There were only another couple at the restaurant who are almost done and are about to leave. So in short, my wife and I are the only customers in the restaurant at that moment. We are courteously given 2 glasses of water together with the menu... would be better if it was followed by a nice "hello/good evening" gesture. They are not rude, but not pleasant either.We are starving and ready to order. Unfortunately, we have to catch their attention to let them know we are ready. The servings came in not long after. Food is okay but the portions you get for what you pay is not acceptable. Expensive to say the least. Isang platitong inihaw na liempo costs us $18.75, Pancit Canton for $16.50 (good for 1 person).At this point we are THE ONLY CUSTOMER inside the restaurant, yet our glasses of water wasn't re-filled and not one crew passed by to check on us if everything's okay.When we were done and ready to pay, we are waiting if they would at least take a glance on us. I guess we can just storm out and they wouldn't even notice. I finally just called their attention and paid my bill shortly. Again, WE ARE THE ONLY CUSTOMER PRESENT THAT TIME.Food portions and service really need to improve. I dont mind paying a premium so long as it is worth it.

This is probably the most underrated filipino restaurant in Delta and in just Greater Vancouver Area overall. To be honest, I don’t understand why they have low ratings. Some people in here just probably have high expectations when they come when its just a casual dine in restaurant. Overall this restaurant is highly recommended. Their food just hits the spot and hugs you with great filipino comfort food. I definitely recommend their pinakbet, crispy pata and bbq! Its just so good and you need to try it. Their food really taste authentic and flavourful. The servers are also very warm and welcoming where it makes you feel at home in the Philippines. And even the kitchen staff are also very friendly and always smiling. I definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone!

Some pieces of the Lechon Kawali ordered seemed re-fried or re-heated. They mixed it with the freshly cooked pieces. You can see the difference because it looks dry unlike the newly cooked ones.

We dined in and ordered 3 viands.My husband had to go to their counter to let them know we are ready to order. There were only 4 tables that were occupied. 1 with 4 people, the 2 others had 1 person each and a couple on the 4th table, so not busy at all. Pricey for the amount of food you get. I ordered sansrival to go. When I tried it, it was nowhere a sansrival. They used dry thin cake instead of meringue. No nuts on the sides. Not sure if there was in the buttercream filling. There was a taste like freezer burn on one of the ingredients used in making their version of sansrival. Not a happy customer here.

The plate you used for take-out was small yet you still manage to make the quantity of food very less (on purpose) inside. Eventhough the customer service is ok but the food is not i think that's still considered rude in my opinion. Most people come to restaurants not just to try the food but because they're hungry and they don't have time to cook. Sometimes it's ok to follow quantity over quality it's not always quality that makes people come to the restaurant. I understand it's inflation but that shouldn't be an excuse to serve the customer very less food especially when they're paying the right price. No wonder very less people come to this place smh....

Enjoyed a quick lunch with a friend today. We had the Fish sinigang and Pork BBQ. Service was quick and the food was great!
Had dine in. Food was decent but service was slow. Went to do take out after the meal and get a couple things to go and they forgot to give me one of my items and didn't give me my change either.

Excited to find this Filipino restaurant in Surrey. Bought 2 platters-$80+ and $112 for meat platter- worst expensive seems reheated left over food cooked. Unchewable burnt ends lumpia shanghai. My aunt 94 y/o cannot even chew or swallow for fear of choking. Only 2 BBQ sticks in a $112 meat platter. Extra Small cut crispy pata on the platter. Only plain Soup stock served included w Platters. Paying Canadian $330 is not cool for these 2 platters. Sticky uncleaned floors. The worst Filipino restaurant I have ever tried in my entire 60 yrs of life. Horrible experience. Hope u wont get tricked on a reunion get together like what we did meeting family in Surrey.

If you like Filipino food and would like a restaurant that is not ‘turo-turo’ style then this is a good place to come try. The menu has a lot of different options to choose from. The sinigang and pork bbq are generally my favourite Filipino food and the flavours are on point with how they should taste. However, I wouldn’t say anything is pulling me to come back. Also, the service is not very attentive.. they do not come and check in on you at all. If you need something you have to go up to the counter to get their attention. Overall, this is an authentic Filipino restaurant that I would recommend to others if try if they never had our cuisine and don’t already have a Filipino friend to feed them this food at their home ;)

Way too overpriced for the quality of food. We ordered take out. Sisig, Kare-kare, Kaldereta and we paid $80. Over half if the meat was fat. Portion is so-so too
