No Michelin Star? This place has gone unnoticeable too long. The food is traditional. True to the cuisine. The food speaks for itself. No need to impress. You either like it or you have a difficult conversation with the chef, who is also the server. You could go anywhere else and try your luck with “fine dining” and you will pay extra to have the same experience. This is a place of ingredients, authentic experience. You don’t see places like this where the owner is discussing business at the next table. Sure, we live in a different decade, but the food needs no advertisement. Authentic Filipino Cuisine. If you don’t like it the chef is more than willing to discuss it. In fact, she asks for your feedback. Take that to your Michelin Star restaurant.

Super delicious! Beef nilaga & dinuguan so good. I come here when I feel homesick and crave Filipino food. Food is so economical and scrumptious. Tess & Juan (owners) are great.

I have to call them like I see them when I do a rating. Nice lady served me. It's a family owned restaurant I would like to give a good rating but I cannot. The restaurant has a few tables in the middle but the room is a warehouse storage facility as all the walls are stacked with restaurant food and equipment. I got a chicken dish to go and it was not bad tasting but it was half of a cut up chicken backbone with rice covered in some spicy sauce. 13.00 not a bad price by todays restaurant prices but it was not worth half of that. Never been to a restaurant in my entire life that served a cut up chicken backbone that might have filled up a half cup after I picked the meat off the bone.

Nice hidden gem inside a commercial building. The owner is the sweetest. I walked in with $20 and asked her to give me whatever she thought was best. Left with pork adobo, lumpia, beef stew, and a sausage. The pork adobo was fall apart tender, and the best I’ve ever had. Would highly recommend

★★★★★ 5.0 Gerald S · Dec 2021

This cute little spot led by Ate Tess is a Filipino restaurant that I highly recommend to anyone to visit. The food here reminds me of home and my Filipino roots (at a reasonable price for a spot in the city). Ate Tess sets the hospitable atmosphere and has a lot to say (with her constant smiles) when you take the time to "talk story" with her. Not only does she take care of you through food, but she also takes care of you through her words of wisdom. Ate Tess, I will never forget to smile! See you soon! :)
