I am from Charleston where we don't have alot of filipino food option so when we went on Atlanta, I searched for filipino food and this is the first one that came up. We ordered shrimp lumpia for appetizer which was disappointing. It was naked shrimp on a wrapper. I am expecting that it will have some veggies or anything in it inside but none other than a naked shrimp. It's tastes okay, fresh from the fryer but I was expecting something more which is my bad. I got Crispy Pata and Bicol Express for mains. They are the highlight of the meal. Crispy pata is soooo crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The flavors are really on point and it is presented nicely. Bicol Express came out sizzling hot. The pork is soft and it is very flavorful. As expected, it is oily because of the coconut milk but the dish is supposed to be like that. Love the gentle heat on it too and the extra chicharon on top. We got ube cake flan and it was really small. You need to get 2 for each person to be satisfied but it is really good. It is not too sweet and the cake is really fluffy. I took a star out because of the ube cake flan being so little and the naked shrimp on wrapper. Our experience is pretty good. Ambience is super nice, it makes you feel like you are in Philippines. Service is not too bad. You need to order from your phone and they dont really check on you often because there is alot of people. It is understandable. So far, better than what we have at chs.

Awesome food along with awesome owners and a great crew. Absolutely love the eggplant coconut curry along with the pork skewers, lumpia (spring rolls) and the fried pomfret are my go-to dishes. Finish off the meal with some great ube-flan cake.

We had a reservation set, and we did get seated 15 minutes before our reservation, which was nice. The lady sat us down, brought us our water, and ordered our food. The food got to us relatively quickly, and the food was pretty good. But throughout the time being there and eating, we never saw our waiter again, and by the time we were done eating, we had to sit and wait for our dessert to be brought to us. Come to find out, they forgot, which I understand being busy. We reminded them that we had gotten dessert, and we waited for another 35 minutes, and nothing came out. We had to flag another waiter down because nobody had checked if we had our dessert, and come to find out, they forgot about our food again. We got our churros, and they were cold… not sure if churros are supposed to be cold, but they were. We also had to move our dirty plates and bowls to another table because we still had them when they brought us our dessert…Food is good, service can be worked on.??♀️

Kamayan blew my friend and I away! I loved how the restaurant was decorated ( so "homey") and of course the food was amazing and tasted home cooked! Service was very quick and incredibly friendly! We loved our time here so much we were planning our next dinner here while we were eating! Thank you so much for your hospitality.

10/10 would recommend! We were first-timers and didn’t realize that a reservation was recommended: they were still able to accommodate our party of 3.The vibes were tropical with great music and a laid back setting. The food was phenomenal, and the waiters showed really good teamwork. Will return!
Every single part of this meal was INCREDIBLE!!!! I'm so sorry to say I didn't order, someone else did so I can't tell you what I ate. Just trust me. Do family style and try a lot!!! It was SOOOO affordable. Service was nice and easy.

This was my first venture into Filipino cooking. I was pleased with all of the dishes. I especially liked the beef dish, and my wife had the whole fish. All good. All delicious.

They truly make you feel like family as soon as you walk through the door. We ordered so much food lol and Every single dish we got was EXCELLENT! I can’t wait to go back!
I went there on Sunday lunch. I didn’t make a reservation but the host lady seated us at seat by the window next to the door. I scan for the menu and pay online with 20% tip upfront. Food came out very fast and very impressive (I love food here) but not for the service. Fist, I asked the host lady couple time (because no one there that I can ask) it was my first time there “if I just want to drink water, what should I do?” She said we will drink you water and we provide you water over there you can go refill by yourself. Well I let it go because I was very hungry and waiting food. And then no one come to check or ask how is everything on our table at all! And when we finish eating, I have been waited about 10 mins for Togo containers. I asked one of a server to get my containers then he said ok I’ll be back to you but he didn’t. He went back to the counter and did some talking. So I tried again to make eyes contact with someone else but no one respond. Then I call the host lady again to bring us containers. I noticed that you guys were very busy and I understand that but it’s unacceptable that so many servers walked by with out asking or anything. I don’t like to servers many times. We’d like to leave as soon as possible. You were greeting and saying goodbye with smile to another customers but didn’t care about us. I gave 20% tip for only food runner guys brings us food but not for service?? My boyfriend never complain but this time he can’t really stand that.

Service was a solid 0.We made an 8 o’clock reservation. Got there at 7:50 and weren’t seated until 8:40.They do not give you a menu. You have to scan a code for the menu. Then you order and pay off the website. No one was around to answer questions. And if you want a refill, you have to go to the website and order/pay for the refill.We even had to stand up and go to the staff to get a to go box.Food was ok.Atmosphere was extremely loud.Only thing that was 5 stars was the food presentation. It looked amazing but was far from such.

A large group of my friends came here on a Saturday. We made reservations since there were 15+ of us at 5 pm since it was either that or 8 pm based on availability. While booking, we were informed that we would be limited to an hour only because of how busy they are so we made sure to look at the menu in advanced. Ordering was very convenient since it's all done and paid for online, especially because it would have been a lot of individual checks anyways. We got to try so many of their dishes including Beef Kare Kare, Pancit bihon, Lumpia, Sizzling sisig, Chicken adobo, Chicharrones, and string beans. Everything was super flavorful and tender! My favorite dishes was the Sizzling sisig and Pancit bihon hands down. The adobo however, was a little too salty for my liking. They provided us with endless amounts of white rice to enjoy with the saucy dishes and tried their best to check in on us regularly. Dessert included Pandan cake and Halo halo espesyal. The cake was spongy and slightly sweet with a subtle pandan flavor. Halo halo was cold and refreshing with lots of cutely decorated different toppings. Overall, I had a great experience with good food, friendly service, and positive vibes. Would come again and recommend others to check them out too!
