The food is served as a set menu. Our group had a great time! The fun part of dining here is eating with our hands.

The cost however is very pricey for the kind of food (a ton of rice).

Fixed menu. Went there in a group of 3. After we are seated and had the appetizer, we were greeted with a pile of food onto the banana-leaf layered table. Food was amazing and I enjoyed eating with my hands as my heritage does it too and it keeps the phone away. We had to get takeaway boxes and it was still 3 meals per person left (one friend had a smaller appetite). Would recommend - if you have a small appetite, just pack it and your week's mealplan is settled!

This place is divine! The food is delicious and is such a good value - their kamayan meal provides enough food for a full belly plus at least two more meals of leftovers. Especially love their lumpia and veggies

Had a bad experience when I tried to make a reservation for a big party for 15 plus people. Called the store and they told me to email their “coordinator”. So I proceeded to email them. And never heard back. At least have the decency to let me know you’re all booked.

Incredible meal with very good value. Prepare for a traditional Filipino experience: banana leaves, no utensils, no plates, and no menu - just whatever the chef has prepared for the day! I did their kamayan tasting menu ($54 plus tax and tip), which had a humongous pile of curried vegetables and garlic rice, a very tasted entire fried fish, several large pieces of grilled pork, and a half dozen small lumpia, with three different dipping sauces. On top of this, they brought a pandesal appetizer and a small chocolate pudding dessert. Decor here is somewhat minimal but there are Southeast Asian touches on the walls. A bit difficult but not impossible to maneuver with a wheelchair. Would highly recommend this place.

Best experience in Philly, definitely need to be open to eating family style with your hands. Food was amazing, pompano (fish) was amazing.

By far one of the best dinner especies I have had, well worth the money in terms of amounts of food and flavors. The service was fantastic, and we had a wonderful time.

Incredible experience with leftovers enough to last for two days!
Everything on the set menu is delicious, from freshly baked bread to the flavorful chocolate budino for desert. Rice, vegetables (cauliflower was one of the tastiest I’ve ever tried!), fish, pork, chicken with the crispiest skin - everything was incredibly scrumptious. And eating with your hands is a fun way to experience this feast.
