I enjoy the food, but I can pass on the staff looking at me in amazement because I'm African American. My money spends like anyone else's. Someone needs to tell the staff it's not polite to stare

Food was really great. Not in the best side of town but worth it! My mom is from the Philippines and makes great food but I missed this food so much and found this place and it was perfect!

Love their authentic Filipino food here. There is hardly any places to go to in Bakersfield for Filipino food. And I highly recommend this restaurant.

I bought a slice biko (sticky rice cake) for $8.28 on 3/15/23. When I came home I noticed that there were mold on all the sides of it. I also bought pansit, beef steak, and pinakbet. A total of 45.64. But after seeing the mold on the slice biko, I was disgusted by it, and didn't want to eat the rest of the food I bought. I called the restaurant, and talk to the supervisor. She wanted to refund me for it, I told her that I leave far from the restaurant. I told her hopefully next time it won't happen again. She said sorry, and that they have poor eyes that they can't see the mold on it.

Your ideal combo plate place with Philipino style cuisine but yet with a similarity in taste to Latin cuisine

Food is really great,. This is actually one of my favorite Filipino food,. The portions are small but the food is just great. Pricey but worth it since it is not really that expensive. I always make sure I drop by at this place when coming from LA to bay Area so i can have the sisig and caldereta when I get yo the hotel. I recommend this place,. Try it,. Its really good.

One of the rare - and probably ONLY - Philippine restaurant in Bakersfield that has Chicken Skin Chicharon - that I know of. Always call ahead if that's one of you reasons to go in (aside from the rest of the menu that has good food) as their chicken skin chicharon is almost always out.

Tucked away in a quiet strip mall, a couple doors down from a pizza parlor, you would probably never know this place existed here. And unless you're a Pinoy craving some Filipino home cooked meal, a Pinoy too busy to cook for yourself, or married to a Pinoy, you would probably never come and eat here. And no, you will not find Filipino spaghetti or Filipino fried chicken here. At least not the kind that Jollibee serves that has amassed a cult following.What you will find here is authentic Filipino cuisine. The kind of food your Lola (grandma) or Nanay (mom) made at home. But let's be honest for a sec here. We all know that out of all the Asian cuisines, Filipino food doesn't garner the attention of the masses in the way Chinese, Thai or Vietnamese cuisine does. But growing up, this is the kind of food I ate as a child. And as an adult, this is the kind of food that when eaten, gives you that warm nostalgic sense of comfort.The restaurant ambiance is casual. There's a hot table with dishes to choose from, meant to be eaten with white rice, but don't expect the dishes to be nicely labeled like Panda Express. More than likely, the dishes will be unfamiliar and might seem like they all look or taste the same. However, I guarantee that if you said adobo (chicken or pork), barbecue stick, beef steak, pancit (noodles) and caldereta, what you'll end up before you is a nice array of the classics. All of this will be served with rice and maybe if you asked, a bowl of sinigang broth (sour soup). If you're feeling adventurous, try the dinuguan (stew made with pork, blood and seasonings). Before you judge, this is actually good because there is no liver and no irony taste. I was skeptical because as a child I always shied away from this dish but now, I almost always order this dish each time.If that's not your jam, they always seem to have on hand a variety of fried dishes--whether it be fish, pork belly or pata (shank) or dilis (baby smelt fish). However, don't forget to ask for the spicy vinegar sauce. For desserts, they may have turon, biko, puto, cassava cake, or flan on any given day. And last but not least...what I really come here for is my childhood favorite called halo-halo. Halo-halo literally translates to "mix-mix" and probably what most would consider the official dessert of the Philippines. It's a cold dessert made up of sweetened red or black beans, coconut jelly, gulaman (colorful agar jelly), buko (coconut jelly), sweetened banana or jackfruit, topped with shaved ice, evaporated milk, a scoop of flan and ube ice cream. Use the tall spoon they give you and go to town mixing the ingredients in the glass. On a hot Bakersfield day, this is what you need to satisfy that sweet tooth. And trust me when I say, this is the most authentic as it comes to what you normally have in the motherland.

Ordered lumpia 60 pieces. It was amazing! I forgot to take a picture.

Wow! 2 items pancit, no rice, and a small serving of squid cost me an arm, leg, and a head! Over $15 for this tiny portion? This place takes the crown for rip offs.
