Delicious and great value. The seating areas are limited and I question whether the food will be good as take-out but it was really tasty in person.

After visiting a VW show in Long Beach and showing homes in the South Bay we wanted some genuine Filipino food and this smaller restaurant was rated as one of the best... for a good reason. Michelle is an awesome host, very talkative and informative. My mother-in-law was born and raised in Pampanga and the roots of the restaurant are Pampangan as well. Sisig and Silog were very nice, halo halo a welcome palette cleanser. Parking was not difficult, even though we arrived at around 1pm on a Saturday. 10/10, highly recommended!

Fantastic Filipino food in a little strip mall. Parking in this lot seems like it could be tough at times but I found parking okay. I was in the area waiting at the Kaiser nearby otherwise I probably wouldn't have found this gem. I was greeted by a nice lady at the register when I came in. Small place with only two tables to eat at, but I got mine to-go anyways. Couldn't decide between the lechon pork belly or the fried pork belly but I ended up going with the fried pork belly. It came with two sides so I chose a salad and garlic rice.The pork belly was perfectly cooked and tasted fantastic, the dipping sauce was also good that came with it. The garlic rice was also delicious. The only complaint I have is that the salad just came with some store bought Italian dressing. I was expecting something homemade and something that would go cohesively with what I ordered like some type of Asian salad dressing. Oh well, not the biggest thing. Just order a different side is my suggestion! I'll definitely be back if I'm in this area again!

I read a few review about the sisig before I came here.. and I was worried but they were wrong! It's quiet crispy.. but you have to eat it straight away, I took a bite in my car and took it home and put it in the oven. I really loved the taste! I would come back here just for that!The crispy pork belly was bomb diggity! Also would come back to it aka cart. I got it with Garlic Rice. Would be perfect if rice was more garlicky than I received but all good the swine is great! While I was waiting for the food I ordered halo halo and sat there. They had a good Chanel on the screen that I found entertaining to watch. :) the restaurant was clean and the lady serving was also super sweet! I will come back again! Xx

Friends and I were at the Filipino Independence Day event and saw Ethan's Belly Boink with a long line, so we decided to try it. We waited an hour in line and wanted to share between different Entrees, I ordered the Crispy Pork Sisig for $14. More than half the container is rice and the "crispy" pork Sisig was not crispy at all. I ended up only taking a few bites and frying it at home myself since it was not crispy and gelatinous. I hope the restaurant location is better than the pop up here.

I don't know too much about Filipino food but this place is a 5 star gem! I had their Lechon pork and it was amazing! Crispy skin + juicy tender meat = winner! It was so much flavor on each bite, paired with their garlic rice. Mmm! So good! I must be in Heaven...Also, try their Halo Halo. I think it pretty much sealed the deal. I walked out with a massive food coma. That's when you know, this place is a keeper, not like your ex girlfriend or boyfriend. I'll be back soon! I want to try their crispy pork next time.
This place is so delicious. Friendly staff members and owner with really great recomendations. The owner and staff are so nice and careing with really great fast service. The food was really really good delicous and tasty. Warm and cooked nicely really fufilled my stomach and craveing. This place is the place to go highly recommend 10/10 will definetly be back over and over again. Thank you Ethans Belly Boink. From the Ramos family

1st and 2nd lunch here was excellent, pares was delicious and meaty. 3rd lunch was horrible, ordered pares and I got nothing but all fat and less meat. I showed it the cashier but did not correct the issues. Just look at the picture.

The most tender, succulent, juicy and crispy pork lechón you could have. I was taken away by the quality of the pork so carefully crafted for a crunchy outside and tender white meat inside. The pork was golden and copper, carefully wrapped and displayed. I will definitely return!
