Crispy pata? More like Crispy mata since flavors like that can kill. Whatever your idea of great tasting food is, forget it. Your taste buds are in for an education the moment you try the food here. Decor is a little dated, but maybe that's what grants the hometown Filipino appeal.

Food is always good but the service has been bad lately! I started to avoid coming here just because of the lady working there who doesn't know good customer service. When we ordered party trays, my aunt asked for help to bring the some trays to the car and she said no even though they were not busy! Today, I ordered and came back to pick my orders up and she just told me, "Ayan na! Kuhanin mo na sa counter!" Now, just got home and just noticed that she did not seal the lid properly and the sauce spilled in the bag. I hope the owner or manager will do something about that worker.

If I could choose zero star I would. Its sucks! You posted 8pm close. You should be considerate to people's effort.When they post their time to be open till 8pm and we arrive at 7:20 they said they wont take any orders. PLS. CHANGE YOUR CLOSING TIME TO 7:30 PM IF YOUR NOT ACCEPTING CUSTOMER SINCE WE CAME FROM FAR SIDE OF THE City N EXPECTING WE CAN MAKE IT AT 7:30 ONLY TO BE TURN DOWN.

This place has been our go to Filipino food as far as quality meal but today we ordered pork sisig it tasted burned meat instead of grill or seared. The pancit was watery like it supposed to have a soup but it not. I mean this place used to be really good. I'm not sure what changed. Wait time on the order wasn't too bad, I really just wished the food was as good as before. This place is always packed and nice friendly staff and kept the restaurant clean for the most part.

This is one of my favorite Filipino places. It really is. The food is always really good. Their Beef bulalo, bangus sisig with onions, crispy pata, kare kare, etc. Everything is really good! I've eaten here a handful of times and taken it to go a couple times. Portions are huge!I went here recently and the dude handed us a stack of paper and pencil, then told us to write down what we wanted. Dishes aren't numbered, so we had to write out the dishes we wanted. Does this mean I get part of the tip?For 7 of us we wrote down 2 orders of garlic rice, but he came by and said it is per bowl, so we should order 7. It's $3.50 per bowl. Fine, whatever. But they've always served their rice in a big shared bowl, which is what happened again this time. Are we to assume you put 7 bowls of rice into the one bowl? Or did we just get scammed? The Crispy Pata was $25. We paid $24.50 for garlic rice...Honestly it couldn't have been more than 3 cups of rice in that bowl. They need to just charge $10-12 for one of those bowls of rice/garlic rice. That's pretty fair for both business and customer. I'm just really upset that they pull this BS. Maybe I'll just take food to go from now on and make my own garlic rice cuz mine is better anyways.

The servings are pretty big! The crispy pork belly was very juicy. I recommend it.The kalabasa wasn't as good as the last time I got it but still good.You're guaranteed to find something everyone likes on their large menu

The food was pretty good. Been here a few times, and I was never disappointed. The only thing was the lady that served us seemed extremely rude. She never looked at us in the eye while talking to us as we observed her, she seemed nice to other tables except for us. It was my friend's first time there, and she even noticed it and made her feel uncomfortable. In fact, my friend, who is not Filipino, felt like she was being racist Because why would she only treat us like this but not the other tables... they got smiles while we got her RBF. I almost said something, but I left it alone. The two gentleman that helped us were extremely kind and attentive. I know primarily I am supposed to be writing this review in regards to their food, but it's irritating at the fact that her bad service and attitude was a subject of our dinner topic discussion. Anyways...We got there shortly after 5 PM and by 5:45 that place was packed. We ordered calamari, Bicol Express, Pancit Canton and fried bangos...all amazing. I would really have given this place a five because of the food, and the two gentlemen's great service that made up for the rude lady.
Tried their Bulanglang without shrimp and Pancit Bihon! The portion size made me go “woah” (literally). One portion size is more than enough for three to four people.

I have only ever gotten takeout, but their Binagoongan is fantastic, the Dinuguan is also very good, if you're ok with eating blood stew. Service can be a bit slow.

I ordered fish sinigang and crispy pata for take out for my family and half way on our meal I found a small dead COCKROACH in the sinigang! We felt sick, disgusted and nauseated. NEVER GOING BACK THERE AGAIN!

Gotta admit that I didn't expect much from this place, but such a good neighborhood Filipino restaurant! Honestly think that it's even better compared to a lot of local joints in the Philippines itself. Seafood sinigang: asked them to make it extra sour. Good stuff especially on a cold windy day. Came loaded with so much seafood and vegetables. Huge bowl. Totally worth it.Beef kaldereta: omg this was fire! The beef was extra tender and you can tell that they've stewed it for a while - honestly a great sign since a lot of places have hard beef cubes and you can tell that they haven't. Lots of meat. Lots of olives. Lots of yum sauce. I could eat this sauce by the spoonful. If you like beef stews, go for this. Overall, pretty great Filipino restaurant that offers a lot of options at reasonable prices and big, generous servings. If you're craving for legit homey Pinoy food, can't go wrong with checking this place out.
