“What a pleasant surprise to find a Filipino food restaurant at Pullman Yards! I tried soooo many things from the menu - Pinoy Elote "pelote", sisig pork tacos, vegetarian pansit, hot dog, BBQ chicken "manok", BBQ pork "baboy", roasted pork belly "liempo", the lemonade, and the alcoholic ube drink. I had a bunch of picky teenagers with me who had never tried Filipino food before and the gobbled it all up and loved every bite! I will for sure be eating here every time I come to the area. Love their decor, love their vibes, staff is sooooooo sweet, friendly, and attentive - really great energy. I can tell they cook their food with love.Vegetarian options: I recently went vegetarian and was very pleased to see the pancit with no meat. It does not sacrifice flavor, that's for sure! I would love to see a few more options, but the pancit alone is very filling and flavorful.“
“We came here for lunch and... The dishes were delectable while not trying too hard and not overtly superfluous. Sometimes simple is just perfect. And, Estrellita was just that for me.Honestly, I make the best adobo ever lol!!!However, I am really happy with Estrellita's adobo. I like it spicy so I asked for some sliced chilis to toss in my bowl instead of hot sauce. My best friend said that the pork sinigang soup was the bomb and soothed his hangover! We each got a Filipino BBQ add on and all I kept picturing in my head was being drunk in 1996 and eating one of these skewers from a street vendor in the streets of Manila. So good - So nostalgic - So Filipino. The Filipino Red Horse beer and Filipino Tanduay rum shot was strong and necessary! I might as well have been in the Philippines for real... Last but not least, the Ube bunt cake with Ube liqeur drizzle by Sweet Cheats was lusciously delicious and complemented the whole meal. Oh, the atmosphere and service by Aron and owner Hope was welcoming.“
