The service is terrible, and the place is kind of dirty.I went with my friend. Her food was good. After 40 minutes waiting for my order, I asked and was told they made a mistake. I had a terrible experience. We will never come back to this

This place is aight. My boyfriend and I had gotten a variety of dishes; kare-kare, lumpia, sinigang, and adobo. Nothing wow'd me and some dishes unimpressed me. Some lacked flavor despite looking great. Probably wouldn't come back on my own.

Tried Sisig pork and fried milkfish and chopsuey. All tasted good and was a really nice comfort food. I particularly like the sisig and chopsuey. The milkfish was okay, might try the grill version next time.

Excellent service at this restaurant. The food was served very quickly. The staff is efficient and nice.Wine is affordable for the San Francisco Bay Area, the Chardonnay was quite good.The chicken adobo was tasty, home-style food, and was served with a very big pot of rice! The chicken wings were not special, too salty, though nice and crunchy. The menu is extensive but a bit confusing for the non-initiated. I would come again.Kid-friendliness: Children are at ease in this large space.

This review would have been higher but for the service. I had to wave down someone for to go boxes, the check, and service. Prices are fair. Total bill with tax was @$60. The bbq pork was nice with a good sweetness and adobo rice was good though a bit bland. The chop suey veggies were under cooked for my liking. Best time to come is around 5pm on a Saturday as customers were fewer than when we arrived at 4pm.

We're Filipino-Canadian and just recently had a visit to celebrate my brothers birthday and this place is a must stop as part of your itinerary! We had Dolly as our server and i can't compliment her enough! Food and presentation is at Par! Kodus to the Chef!This place brings us back "Home".
