“ The best filipino Halo Halo I've ever tasted. Their pan de sal is fresh and soft but tasted like pan de sal not a regular dinner role. Their palabok is so tasty ”
“ Excellent, delicious lechon (roasted and Kawali), excellent pastries. Seriously, the lechon is amazingly good: if you are a fan of Chinese style roast pork, this is superior. Less salt and just as tasty. Great portions on plates with fresh veggies. The service is always friendly and helpful. ”
“ Super good filipino food. Very nice staff, I got the pork belly lechon with garlic rice. Also got a beef side which was superb. They also have a filipino pastry shop where you can pick up various filled monogos. The bbq chicken skewers were excellent as well. Not sure what the other commented on. I am not filipino and they gave me a ridiculous amount of food. ”
