Went there with my niece and her three daughters. I had pork lumpia, chicken adobo, steam rice and pancit. Delicious.

Got welcomed with a smile and bone broth. My heaven 😂❤️
I'll definitely be back! The beef liver was delicious. Literally leaving this comment outside the parking lot. I'll be back for those mimosas !

I was the only customer in for dinner tonight. I ordered Bicol Express (meat was hard) with garlic rice. The garlic rice is not warm, not fresh and its hard. As soon as i got home from my dinner the Bicol Express made me run to the bathroom really bad.
To the owner of this restaurant… I’ve dined in your restaurant more than once and in my opinion, I don’t think some of your employees care about your business. I will not comeback.

On a warm October afternoon, I needed a place to eat with my partner. We ended up choosing this restaurant based on the recommendation of a Filipino friend. And this place did not disappoint at all. Though we were a little confused as you enter from what seems to be a side door, to be then seated either inside or outside, the menu continued our confusion. The menu is massive, with so much text. It might as well be classified closer to a novel than a menu, however underneath all of this confusion, there is a hidden gem in the food. A few of the highlights were the Lechon Kawali and the Fried Bangus. The flavors were outstanding and you must choose the garlic rice over steamed rice every time. The only drawback was the soup that came in the combo was way too salty, as if it had been reduced for 3 hours too long. Regardless, everything else was super delicious and the value was really good. The vibe was authentic and it felt like I found my #1 Filipino restaurant.

Got there when it opened so there was no waiting on a late Tuesday afternoon. When I read the menu, it warned in advance that everything is made to order, so customers might have to wait, but seeing as I got there, I didn't have to wait a long time.

Lechon Kawali was crisp and hot, the silog had the right amount of garlic, tho I'd appreciate plain rice as an alternative. Like the availability of condiments on the table.

Liked the small touches, like blankets available for the outside diners, as well as the shell game on each table.

When I return, it'll probably be with a bunch of people.

I ordered the loco moco ground beef patty with lots of gravy which was topped with a over medium egg on a scoop og harlic rice. Not to mention the very crisp tater tots. The beef patty was a little overcooked but still delicious. Maybe next time ask to have the beef patty medium. We also ordered bangus fish and lechon kawali with garlic rice which was even a better choice. The tocino was homemade which i appreciate. All in all a good filipino restaurant with a great selection.

Decent size cantina. I liked that they have 'sungka' on the table to use while waiting for your order. Plenty of sauces and oil for condiments. Service is great. Friendly, accommodating and helpful. I ordered the Sisigsilog, and I like the generous portion. The plating of the food is actually efficient and labor-saving with the use of banana leaf on top of bamboo paperplate. The sisig was good but i think it needs a bit more mayo. Nonetheless, it did hit the spot. Will definitely come back again.

Delicious and authentic Filipino food. The vibe of the interior is also cool, just like being back in the Philippines. I love the combination plates, such a great value. Highly recommended!

On September 3rd around 12:15 PM, I asked for hot water in a double cup — which makes it very clear I wanted it hot. The server literally filled it straight from the sink, lukewarm, and I saw it with my own eyes. Then he handed it to me and said “hot,” with zero care, almost mocking. That’s just disrespectful and lazy service. If you check your cameras, you’ll even see my reaction — I walked out, poured the water out right away, and left the cup on the table. If staff can’t even handle something this simple, it shows how little they care about customers. Definitely not coming back.

My first time to order food here. I was lazy to cook and wanted just buy cooked food instead. My mom who is sick wanted to order pinakbet. The pinakbet super lansa ang taste. Then I ordered my favorite dish which is kalderetang goat, I very dissapointed how bad is taste 😩 kulang sa tomato sauce tapos ang tigas ng karne at maanta ang lasa! I understand its a commercial bzness buti kung mura lang ang price, its expensive for that kind of taste. Very dissapointed 😞 I will never go back here again. Everything I ordered was nothing to expectation. I think they should hire a good cook so that people will be satisfied and happy.
