Nostalgic but way too overpriced for meat sticks you have to reheat yourself.

Everything is better when it comes on a stick. Plenty of options. The best item on the menu was the fried pork leg. The right amount of fat and juice. Super crispy skin and melty fat and meat on the inside.

Prices went up since few years and before covid. Before I remember they're only 1 dollar but now it's $1.95 per stick if you go to the place itself if it's delivery via ubereats or doordash is $2.30. Everything's good plus the staff are very friendly. I feel very welcomed.

Horrible service. The guy had to kept cutting me out acting like he'll get to me and keeps forgetting my order. I had to remind he 3 times nicely while he gives Attitude. Also forgets our rice and on top asks if we have and smaller bills, the total was $50, so I paid with a $100. Its not like it was a small purchase, the guy Still complained, Horrible experience. Use to be my favorite place to eat Filipino food but now I wouldn't give a dollar to the rude workers there.

Overpriced food that you have to cook yourself. Cashier literally just uses a calculator to add the price of your skewers together, so if you order a lot, good luck adding it mentally.. The receipt does not include details of the order, so the final price may not be accurate.

Came here very late right about closing time. The indoor set up was already put away, the outdoor grill was no longer available.The person that helped was very kind and still accommodate us. The food was good and met our expectations for an isawan. We wish we came at an earlier time to enjoy the food and get the full experience as we had an out of towner with us and because we ended up having to stand outside while enjoying our food

Grab a tray, put your skewers of choice, order some rice and that's all you need to have a great night. This food is delicious! We didn't get to try it all but definitely will return to finish off the menu!

My first time and not coming back. I'm a little disappointed about this place. We went Friday after sunset. So you basically go in and order your food and grill it yourself. The food selection was okey and all tasted pretty blend. I would not recommend getting the pork blood. I almost puke. They only have two dipping sauce option also. And I wish they have more grilling station. Instead of putting it next to each other. Like 10 people standing trying to grill their food. It gets pretty over crowded. The outside patio was pretty dirty also. The Tables are not properly clean and they only have one trash bin and it was full. The ambience was a bit dark and chairs are too noisy. So many mosquitos outside also.

Food wasn’t the same anymore. the place itself need cleanup, bathroom was really dirty. They only have two grill which makes everything slow especially if they have a lot of customers.

We've been coming here for awhile now, and it's pretty consistent. It boasts of a traditional isawan and gives me all the feels of being back in the Philippines. It's a little pricey but really, it's a luxury and satisfies a specific craving, so I can't really complain. If you know, you know, and this place is definitely a vibe.

Do not like the customer service. Sometimes they heat up the food for you when you do take out sometimes they don't want to. The dinning area still is messy. And they just cover the mess with a divider. I mean, why not just clean it up and make more room for people to eat? Some of us do not like to be outside because its cold. I bring my guests from out of town here because this is the only Pinoy restaurant with the turo-turo, street food style menu. Oh they got expensive too. Need to find another option for my guests.

had a really good experience here, the food is authentic and the workers are nice and helpful. chill ambiance, you choose which skewers you want and reheat them on the grills outside. they have a large selection of skewers, each is $1.85 if you're paying with card and $1.75 with cash, with a few exceptions for certain items. there's lots of indoor and outdoor seating. would definitely recommend this restaurant if you're in the area!
