Lawrence M.

First time visiting this restaurant. Ordered one of the combo assortments fir the table to share. The combos are discounted from ordering the entrees individually, you get unlimited rice and it comes with theee fountain drinks. I massively over ate, big time, had to take a nap. My stomach hurt. I was happy. My Filipino food "experts" say it is authentic and brings them back to their childhood. Wow ... that's quite an endorsement! (hey, didn't i hear that in a Disney film?) Anyway, its a great place. Highly recommend it. Go early, its packed by 11:30 am on a Saturday.

All the Filipino comfort foods with good portions. My favorite was the sinigang, inasal, and halo halo. Do not come here when they are busy if you are sensitive to sound because it is VERY noisy. Quick but inattentive service. Staff speak Tagalog.

This place is not bad, it has more options than other Filipino restaurants. Their Tocino was just plain sweet and not much of other flavors, it was fatty and oily. The fried pork belly with shrimp paste was super salty and bitter eggplant with mango being hard cubes. I agree with many other comments regarding the lack of customer service. Their food in the back being already precooked were being plated nicely. Reason why they are fast coming out but still lacking customer service. You do have to ask people to help get your order and you have to get your own drinks. Their beef soup was hard but tasty. Their pancit palabok was too wet and came out cold. Their caldereta fish was really good but the portion was good for 1 person.
