I've been coming here for a few years now and I never reviewed this place before it is honestly a go to for Filipino food in the area. They have everything here and not just on specific days but every day! They have diniguan, sisig, lechon and it's consistent, they never run out! I walked in and it was pretty spacious with plenty of seating. They had a glass window in groin with a view of the grill where they cook their chicken on a stick. I ordered a combo plate with rice, diniguan and bistek. The rice was cooked perfectly, the diniguan and bistek were more on the sour side for me than I'm used too but still good. Such a good place and so many fresh options to chose from!

Very hospitable, friendly and welcoming establishment. I found this place off reviews and was delighted to be able to try sisig and their lechon kawali braised in sauce - both were delicious. The sweet lady at the counter was very kind and patient explaining which items selected and offered me a complimentary sinigang soup for takeaway with the lunch combo. It was a generous serving, great value, and endearing service. Plenty of seating within the restaurant to dine in and also small retail stand to purchase additional products.

Let me tell you, food is so good that I forgot to take photos 😩😂 I just took one photo of the skewers because it looked so good!!! Definitely recommend trying the lumpia! The place is a little hot so I recommend taking some food to go!

Lisa's confirms that I was more in love with Filipino food than I was with my X. The food here is excellent , a great variety with quality is a combination that leaves you with a reassuring confidence that it was money well spent. I got everything you see for $20 I poured the soup over my rice and just the weight alone is enough to feed you twice, but so delicious that you will keep saying "just one more bite " . This is my go-to spot and the woman who work here are kind and the portions they give you overflow the cup. This is real food , homemade and not that McDonald fast food . This was ordered and ready to eat within 3 mins. I can guarantee you will find my review accurate and after finishing your plate will leave no room for dessert or regrets. Filipinos are great , well.... Besides m

This place serves the most flavorful Filipino food. The is the best pancit I have had! I did try some new dishes this visit. So I apologize for not having the names of everything. Also the service was amazing. It was my friend's first time here and he was given a soup(apologize for not knowing the name) and the fried bananas(?name?) to try.. I tried them also.. Delicious 😋 Definitely recommend. Delicious and filling. Great prices!!
