No public restrooms.Takeout orders only... large catering business.If you want lechon, you will need to order ahead of time.No desserts.We ordered a la carte to go... so the portions are much larger than a plate.The Garlic RIce ($10.95) was really flavorful and did not need anything to enhance it.The Kare Kare ($30.95) is really lacking in flavor. There is a peanut aroma, but not the flavor. Note there are plenty of veggies (cut green beans, eggplant and shanghai bok choy) along with some honey comb tripe and of course oxtail. There is a side of Bagoong monamon (fish paste) to help add a bit of seasoning to the kare kare. It does enhance the flavor. Please do not waste the kara kare sauce, it will go really well with the garlic rice.Pork Adobo ($17.95) very flavorful. You get A LOT of pork with very little sauce, so that's pretty good, unless you love Adobo sauce. The pork is tender and pretty lean as Adobo goes. Note there are bay leaves in the dish, so please be careful and dig them out before eating. The aroma is quite intoxicating.

The best filipino food in the area in my opinion.Parking: They have 7 spaces on the side of the restaurant and there is plenty of street parking as well
Ordered Large Lechon on a Thursday and there was extra charge of $75 plus. Order came out to $478. Reason for this extra charge. The vendor who they buy the Roast pig from charges extra on Thursday. However, If you order on Fridays which is their normal deliveries of Roast Pig from their vendor. Then you pay regular orice for any size pig. This tells me...they don't Roast their own pigs. They buy the Roast Pig from someone else. Very inconvenient and disappointed ?

The website is not updated! We went there at 11am no food prepared, no dine in and the waitress said the food will be available at 1pm. We drove from San Jose just to try this place but it’s so disappointing! We wasted our time, gas, and effort to nothing. Their website is so misleading! They should put that dine in is not available, and they should put the real and updated picture of their place right now! Looks so chaos and unsanitary! I will never recommend this place to anybody. Also Zero STAR for customer service!

I'm sad that i only have one little picture, which doesn't even show everything we ordered. I ordered catering trays for my baby shower, and the food was all delicious. Also, i paid extra to have everything delivered, and the person that delivered was so nice and told me how to handle the food. We had: Pancit Miki Bihon Lumpia Shanghai Rice Lechon Kawali Bbq Chicken Bbq pork Bangus Sisig Fish Fillet Escabeche Chopsuey (seafood only) Everyone commented on how good the food was. Special shout out to: the pancit miki bihon, bangus sisis, bbq pork, but everything was really good. We had plenty of leftovers, and mostly everyone took something home for a second meal. Thank you, Tastebuds!

I knew Tastebuds sold the best lechon but not the one they gave us when we ordered for our family's Thanksgiving celebration. They only gave us 1 32oz sauce instead of 2. The skin wasn't crispy and the pig was all bone not that much meat.

Our go to spot for tasty Filipino food. Ideal for take out as they did not have any done in options at this time. Faves are tofu sisig and bangus sisig

Too expensive for the portions. The food is meh. Location is great, but parking is scarce. Lechon, sure, but that’s pretty much all they offer that’s not widely available.
Ordered 2lbs of lechon. It was 2lbs because they put the sauce in the box. Remove the sauce out of the box it only weighed 1lb. What a ripoff shady business buyer beware!!!

Tofu sisig over garlic rice is to die for. Such a good airport snack.

Best lechon...

Their lechon here was dry, not crispy and small. The skin was also soggy. They're known for their lechon but I don't know what happened? They didn't maintain the quality of their food. Everyone in the party was disappointed of their lechon. -

If I could give this restaurant a zero, I would. We ordered Lechon/roast pig from this place. We are so disappointed, not only does the pig look overcooked It looks like they removed all the meat from it. We ended up giving out the Lechon away and none of our guests wanted to take some home. We have so much leftover that we threw it away. Please don't order from this place. It's not only super expensive it's also a waste of money.
