It’s always a great combination when you get good food with good service . Ate Anna was such a delight to have. She was very welcoming . She really made us feel at home and a part of the family. The food was good . We ordered calamari, chicharon bulaklak, Laing, crispy pata , sisig and rice .
Honestly it was really good, food came nice hot and fresh.
The decoration of the restaurant is also very vibrant .
Parking isn’t a problem with the availability , it’s just kind of a tight space.

I was so excited to bring my parents who came from Illinois to eat here. I didn’t even take any pictures.
The chicken adobo had 5 pieces of chicken with a lot of sweet sauce. The nilaga was more oily with fatty meat. The Bangus Sisig was disgusting - too much vinegar. The only thing I liked was the Mungo which had minimal amount of fish and fat pork.
It was small and claustrophobic with the restroom outside the restaurant. Never again.

My son, brother in law, and I were craving for Filipino food and none of us had been here before, but we heard their food was good.
We waited a very long time for our food, and the waitress who served us was very conniving and not honest.
She should’ve explained the menu to us before hand, but we found out the hard way.
We ordered crispy Pata $34, ( she automatically charged us the large portion even though we didn’t ask for it and even said they only had one size), Kare Kare $30 ( we could hardly find any meat), lumpia $19 ( basically 15 baby half size bites on the plate), bulalo soup $24 (average portion), daing bungus fish $24 ( razor thin fried fish), and two rice $16 ( two small plates of rice).
The food was good, but definitely not worth the price for a hole in the wall.
Total price $156.86 and a 10% tip of $15 which I truly regret because it’s all about the service and satisfaction and neither were good.
Out the door we paid 174.86 for basically four main dishes and an appetizer.
Go figure.

We paid $113.00 for three main courses and a side of white rice. We expected the portions to be large, but they were not. The amount we paid did not meet our expectations. The food was mediocre, with very small servings that were insufficient for a group. Additionally, an 18% gratuity was automatically added to our bill, which would be acceptable if the service were excellent, but unfortunately, it was not. The restroom is outside the restaurant, requiring a key, and the experience was strange and unsettling. Please note that if your group has five people, the gratuity will be automatically added to your bill.

Dining here with coworkers for an early lunch. We were able to find a parking spot pretty easily, but we arrived just after the restaurant opened and with the amount of cars in the lot I assume it would be full by lunchtime making it difficult to find a spot.

We ordered the garlic rice, mixed pancit, adobo pork and lumpia.

The lumpia were small, bite-size I would say. They were pretty moist inside, almost a little mushy.

The garlic rice was quite delicious, wonderful flavor throughout and a little more moist than one would expect.

The mixed Pancit was delicious, a blend of rice and egg noodles. Miniature shrimp and chicken along with vegetables were mixed in this wonderful flavored dish.

The star of the show was the adobo pork. Although there were some chunks of fat that I mistakenly assumed was meat, this dish was rich and flavorful. I loved the amount of sauce that came with it which I was able to put on top of the garlic rice. I will definitely be back for this dish as it was so memorable I am thinking about it three days later.

The service was phenomenal, it was our first time eating at a Filipino restaurant and our server was so patient and graciously explained the menu to us. Wonderful hospitality, generous portion sizes, and an overall great dining experience.

LOVE this hole in the wall! Ate and kuya we interacted w/ today were so nice and friendly.Small space, but colorful decor. The food is PERFECT. The pork sisig was delicious and the lechon kawali was perfectly crisp (not too hard) and tasteful.Will definitely be back for more - sapak sa sarap!

Mouth watering food at its best. Always authentic and flavorful. Must try crispy pata, inihaw na baboy, bagoong rice, bihon, daing na bangus, garlic rice, laing, chicharon bulaklak, tinola and lechon kawali. Everything is so delicious.
