This is a waste of my time, money and food! Don’t even bother to go. I’ve been in different Filipino food but this one is bad, so bad that I have to throw them away. They don’t even deserve 1 star not even 1/2 star.

We arrived around 9:20 PM and were told that the grill was already closed and only takeout was available, which we understood even though the closing time was 10 PM.

However, when we tried to sit at a table while waiting for our BBQ order, one of the staff member who was mopping told us that the floor was wet and we couldn’t sit there. We were only planning to sit briefly while waiting, but instead, we had to stay outside and wait for our order.

I hope that in the future, customers can still be allowed to sit at a table while waiting for their orders, especially when there is still about 40 minutes before closing, based on the posted hours.

The lady working at the counter was friendly and accommodating, she always smiles and has great customer service.

They have plenty of Filipino street foods to offer - pork/chicken isaw, kwek-kwek, lobster/fish/squid balls, chicharon bulaklak, pork/chicken bbq and so much more. They also have pares with garlic rice, taho and gulaman.

There's a patio are where you grill the stuff you got or you can ask the staff to help you.
The pares was full of flavor but the bbq sticks are either hit or miss. The pork liver was hard and chewy but the chicken isaw was tender.

Overall, it satisfied our filipino street foods craving.

Great food but service is horrible. We came in today at 7:40pm and they close at 8pm. We were told its all to go, which we understood. However, the female cashier was very unwelcoming and rushed everyone in line. When it was my time to pay, I had asked for extra sauce after buying $100 worth of food (50 skewers). She proceeded to give me 5 sauces. When I asked for extra sauces, she threw a whole attitude.

PS, ESKINITA has WAY BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE and VIBES!!
Mind you Ive been choosing to go to Toto's for the sauces for years. Might just switch up.

Found molds on the pig-ear skewers today. Careful when picking skewers to grill. Will never go back!!

We love the concept of BBQ DIY grilling. Food tastes ok and there are many options to choose from. It would have been nice if they serve San Miguel beer.☺️

The barbecue is good but they should publish when it is prepared so you can get them fresh off the grill as opposed to needing to be reheated. I appreciate that they provide the vinegar and sauce for the food and they even have gulaman. Nice spot.

Best place for evening fix with friends and family. Bring an extra hot sauce and your own rice.

The food is great, and the sauces are excellent, but I believe traditional sauces would be even better.
