“Service was good. Prices were reasonable. Decor was fun. My teriyaki chicken with rice was good. My daughter ate all of her chicken teriyaki bowl. My wife’s teriyaki steak was burnt, though. We sent it back (they actually just left the first one at our table). The second one was almost as bad. The server noticed and took that dish off of our bill without us asking (which was nice). Stay away from the steak and you’ll be fine. We would go back, so please don’t take this as a negative review.“

“It's such a special experience,Coleslaw's excellent I had the pork ribs excellent-$22, cornbread $6 excellent , potato salad excellent, The vibe in the back patio is fantastic, they've got it set up so it's just ultra cool in the back, Go with a group of people it's even better , there's plenty of cozy tables that have their own little area, there's art on the walls, and then plenty of tables in the center to sit in the back and then there's a big fireplace and then in the very back is a big cigar lounge and then the owners hang out in the back and they're super fun.“

The etouffee, gumbo and red beans and rice is what we had and all of the food was flavorful and hot from the kitchen. We saw a lot of people ordering the baskets and they looked really good. We are going back to try those soon.“

“Attending a mixer function hosted by the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce.It was okay. I did try their whisky!First time for me. I learn from other people that the fermentation process can last couple years and not gone bad.Personally I can't say much of their products being it's my first time tasting it. I want to try it, cuz the night was freezing and I need some alcohol to get me warmer. LolThe parking was a b****. Luckily when I arrived there were two spots left!!! HehheheheI didn't try their food. Or was the food stands theirs?! No clue.“

The server we had was super nice and eligible about any questions that we had he was very great at attending us a little there were periods where no one would come to check on us at all. Overall it was very good but a little pricey. I would recommend this place.Parking: Location is right by Trader Joe’s so parking situation can be tricky has many people are shopping at Trader Joe’s“

Pulled Pork Sandwich and Fries

“Delicious! This place has been on my list for a while and it did not disappoint. The tri tip sandwich and brisket sandwich were delicious! The meat was so tender. Potato salad was a winner. Green beans were too salty. Plain fries were another hit! The loaded fries were too much for me... plus they have a great drink menu. Sauces were underwhelming - they had a strong vinegar taste. However, the sandwich didn't need any more sauce! Beyond delicious as is. Also, I haven't found a restaurant to serve Not Your Fathers Root Beer until now! Service was polite, friendly, and prompt. This restaurant is family friendly. It's a great, casual, atmosphere that offers both indoor and outdoor seating. There are heaters, fun old school music playing in the faint background, and fun Disney references sprinkled in the decor! I'll be back :)“

“The food is freshly prepared and not like typical Filipino cantinas where you point at the food, which has been out for awhile. Their bowls have the right amount of rice, meat and veggies. Well balanced meal and not greasy. Highly recommended for a modern feel of traditional Filipino food. We need to make Filipino food match the modern times. So happy too that it's near my home and not all the way in Clairemont or Mira Mesa.Parking: No problem with parking even during a rainy day.“

I got some of the noodles, sausages, bread and beef as well as two canned sodas (I don't know the exact name of some of the dishes because I kind of just took whatever they had left) such great portions and I will 100% be back so I can see what else they have. I spent less than $40“
