Food's good.Service nonexistent.Band plays good music but the volume will blow out your eardrums.Overall, would only recommend coming here if there's nothing else open around here.

The food is good and the seating is comfortable. I think they got it just right for their pricing and quality of foods they serve. Not your typical family style Filipino mom and pop shop. They serve restaurant style cooking with nice serving wares. The food is delicious and not too greasy with generous serving. The bagoong (shrimp paste) fried rice is a must try. The only dish I am a little disappointed about is the fresh lumpia. I didn't like the overly sweet egg wrap with a sweet sauce. As for service I would say they are lacking, it feels like family members moonlighting and more hanging out then paying attention to their customers. They can really use some professional servicers to take the business to the next level.Bottom line I will go back again for the food if I am in the area. And if you live close by just get your food to go.

People were very attentive. Good portion sizes to share. Food is very good. Recommend the Kare-Kare! Pork BBQ was very soft, my son devoured it.

When I travel to LA and dine out, I always go for Chinese or Korean as there are a plethora of these types of restaurants. But this time I wanted to try a different type of Asian food, so my friend suggested Filipino. I honestly didn't know what to expect. The waiter made some recommendations and OMG!!! I had Lumpia, which are spring rolls filled with meat. Crispy pata, which is pork with a super crunchy skin. BBQ pork skewers and Sisig, which is also pork served on a hot skillet with a flavour I cannot describe. All served with a side of rice. For dessert, it was banana wrapped in spring roll wrapper, drizzled with toffee/caramel with a scoop of Ube ice cream. The biggest surprise was a dessert called Halo Halo, which is shredded ice mixed with sweet fillings (not sure what they are but tasted goo) topped with another scoop of Ube ice cream and creme brulé and drizzled with evaporated milk.The only thing that wasn't eaten was the lettuce leaf that was used as a garnish so it's evident that my family and I enjoyed the food. I will certainly return.

It's my first time here. The rice was undercooked, the pancit bihon was salty. The live band was so loud that my ears were ringing, as if I had been punched in the head by Manny Pacquiao. The only thing that I liked was the Beef Bulalo.

I had 16 people in my party and said they close at 8.We got there it does take time to cook all the food we ordered.They were in such a hurry to close. We were rushed out of there by 7:45.I just feel that ok, you close at 8 but does that mean we have to rush and eat our food???

My Turkish boss has been exposing me to new cuisines. This was my first time trying filipino food. I am latina so I wasn’t expecting a huge difference, but I can taste the spices difference. Everything was served searing hot & full hearty portions. Everything was definitely delicious.We had multiple dishes between four of us - some I didnt get pictures if. I do remember trying the grilled octopus, which was my least fav dish. It was very charred which my coworker told me is the filipino way, but it was to hard to chew for me. I could get past the charred but maybe if it was cut into smaller pieces? Instead of one whole tentacle.My favorite dish was the dessert. I’ve never tasted anything like that. The aloe cubes & kidney beans surprised me. It was delicious.Overall recommend.

I had their miki bihon last night and the taste hits home. Food quality was really good. I also enjoyed the band and good music too. Would come here again.
First time here. I brought my mom for her birthday. Food was great everything was good, but service wasn't that good. We waited and talked for a long time with no checkup at all by the waiter. We had to flag him down. My son was thirsty. Refills were never asked nor brought. Food comes in big portions not for 1 or 2 people much like a family setting. I noticed they had a stage and have live band sometimes.
Highly recommend this restaurant for food and entertainment. Clean including the restroom and friendly staff. Good location. Food is reasonably priced. Will definitely come back.
