Great food, feels like Im right at home. Try their pares overload or with bone marrow, you won't regret it.

Visiting town and was craving something savory for breakfast. What better option than some Filipino food? I love that they open at 7am for the early birds. Ordered the Tocilog and it was everything I was craving. The garlic rice had crispy garlic pieces and the tocino was well marinated and its sweetness was not overpowering. I definitely had enough to save for lunch on my travels home. The store is neat, clean, and well designed. They have two small tables outside. Once I got my food, I enjoyed my hot delicious breakfast basking in the morning sunlight.

I rarely go out for Filipino food, but this place was convenient and recommended by a friend. This is a breakfast place, but the food felt like any typical lunch or dinner. I got the Lechonsilog breakfast plate with 'Mang Tomas' sauce. It came with garlic rice, an over easy egg, and a couple slides of cucumber/tomato. The pork belly had a nice ratio between meat and fat. Ultra-crispy skin, and not too oily. Almost too crispy, at times, because the pork skin stuck pretty easily to my teeth. For what I paid, this meal gives great value. $15 for around 12 pieces of pork belly, with rice and everything else!! My only suggestion is to add even more garlic flavor to the rice. Other than that, this dish made for a great lunch! Service was great, and there's two tables outside for dining.

Came in here to check out after the massage in the same plaza. I bought 1 marinated beef rice plate and 1 milk fish rice plate. Both are simple and delicious. Will come back again.

This to me is the hole in the wall spot to get some good eats. The service was good and friendly. I'm no filipino food expert but love to try new things. We heard the lechon was good so we went to try. I had lechon, longginisa, garlic rice, and egg plate. My mom had the same but pork belly and it was fresh and clean and delicious. I was really good and we will be back to try new dishes especially the adobo. We also had the cassava cupcakes. Price is the price (cause I'm broke) but totally worth it to me. Definitely gonna be back to try other dishes.

Lechon and Chicharron Bulaklak was good, but the Kare-Kare... was not. It's supposed to be oxtail, why was it pork belly instead?? The sabaw was also lacking flavor... also my friends felt ripped off on their silog orders. Not much food for the price they paid. The cashier was nice tho.

I ordered a plate of tapsilog here and it was kinda pricey. Wait time was okay, maybe somewhere around 5-10 min. I would suggest ordering ahead of time if you're in a rush. Great service, they offered an extra vinegar if I wanted. Price was justified because when I got home, the serving of tapa was more than enough. I actually almost ran out of rice. Very delicious, too! Definitely would come back and order more next time I'm craving tapsilog.

The worker failed to inform me that they were out of certain ingredients. They had no problem charging me full price for incomplete Halo Halo. It was missing ice cream and condensed milk. So, this was basically shaved ice with toppings which was super dry and bland. I didn't realize it was incomplete until I got back to my car. I tried to go back inside to ask about the ice cream, and they said, "sorry, we're out of ice cream". They didn't provide any other solution. I called about four times for a refund. The owner agreed to give refund, but never actually gave the refund. This was not worth $8. I was excited to visit this restaurant, but it's very disappointing how the owner handled the situation. Customers shouldn't have to go back and forth for being wronged. Some food items are good, but due to the bad customer service, I will not be coming back to this place. Note for the restaurant owner and workers : Please let your customers know when you are out of ingredients and ask if they are okay with it before charging them full price. Receiving a refund from this place is difficult to say the least.

The garlic rice was mushy and inedible. I don’t think they make their lumpia fresh as it seemed like it’s just fried from frozen store bought. The longanisa was weirdly too sweet. It’s really expensive for what it was. $30 (including tip) for mini lumpias and for longanisa/garlic
