★★★★★ 5.0 Liana Walker · Feb 2026

The restaurants atmosphere was very cozy, went on a Sunday late afternoon. Do you know what’s authentic Filipino place when there’s a TV playing Filipino music, with microphones ready for karaoke. A little more Filipino, we can cook this at home, definitely adventured here to see if this was as cozy as it is at home. The restaurant definitely beat my expectations with having a bakery side to it as well which included filipino pastries and other cold desserts. I highly suggest coming here and my little ones gave this location, a 10 out of 10. It definitely gave me a very cozy vibe, next time I want to ask when can I come sing karaoke. I also went to the side that had some items for sale that were a Filipino related, although I didn’t buy anything I definitely think it is a grand idea. It’

I love stopping by here to get my Filipino fix. Great people and food. However, every time we stop by, they seem to be changing things. I liked the grocery store, but that seems to have been moved into a small section of the restaurant now and there wasn't much selection. Will still be back though, as the food and people are always good.

This place is the real deal! Absolutely authentic Filipino cuisine! The food is fantastic and traditional. It’s the same thing you’d truly get in the great country. Definitely a must visit for troops coming to Fort Lee or those looking for a new dining experience. They offer traditional meals as well refreshers and desserts. The interior is cute and I believe they might do Karaoke.

Restaurant recently opened. Not my first time eating their food. Owner Emily is always welcoming upon arrival to her businesses. Traditional Homestyle authentic Filipino cuisine. Menu varies slightly from week to week. They do have boba teas and some desserts, but I didn’t get any at this visit. Casual dining atmosphere, decorated with Philippine cultural flair. I think they may have karaoke. Glad to have them locally.

Found out about this spot and had to go give them a try. I ordered the Lumpia and Pancit and both were really good. Everything was hot and fresh including the sauce that came with the lumpia. I didn't get her name but the woman behind the counter was super nice and I definitely would go back just for her. They have an area toward the back to buy some other snacks and cooking items as well. Great food, great service, and a convenient location. I'm not familiar with the other items they sell but I'll be back to try them!
