“Everything about this place was perfect, the food was 11/10 the chicken was amazing, the servers were very nice especially this 1 lady I didn't get her name. The atmosphere was very welcoming, It was like I was back home in the Philippines everyone was speaking tagalog over all I would eat here every chance I get. This place needs to get 5 stars“
“I was in the USN about 30 years ago and had my first experience of lumpia back then. There is nothing finer in life than when a flavor from way back comes to life again. I pulled in. Darted in. Ask if it was possible to get 20 count of lumpia. No. How about 25? Well sure I'll suffer for the good of humanity. Only $9.00 for 25! Great experience. In and out with deliciousness.“
“This place is the best. The food is to die for. I have been to Boonies several times now and i have yet to have a menu item that i haven't absolutely loved. The service is fantastic and the atmosphere and playlist are great. I can't recommend this place enough!“
“Love Kasama! I’ve been back each time I visit the city and the breakfast is banging. I know the sandwich + hash-brown is iconic and a must try but their other food is equally as delicious. Would highly recommend ordering online to skip the line if you don’t plan to eat inside.“
“Good food, decent portions, but overprice. Fast service once seated. Wait times are Looong! Waited over 1.5 hour outside cold weather. Wish there's feedback on wait times in the scheduling app or from staff. Wish they'll advertise their online scheduling online before arriving at the restaurant.“
“By far one of my fave spots in Chicago. Every time I’m there they’re exploring something new and delicious but are consistently true to their flavors and culture.This Cuban Filipino fusion rings true to its inspirations and never disappoints. This was our first time getting the 5 course tasting meal and every dish was amazing. Great flavors, textures, and as a couple that doesn’t drink a lot we loved the N/A drink pairing. We were definitely full by the end.Alfredo was an incredible server/host and was very attentive to our needs and creating a special environment for us. Would highly recommend for a good date night or to celebrate a happy occasion.Very intimate setting!Dietary restrictions: Good with my shellfish allergy. The substitutes were still incredible. Mushroom for lobster.Parking: Easy street parking. Def can find a spot within a block. Maybe harder at peak peak times.“
“Absolutely love new Filipino restaurants popping up in the area. Street parking, open early and through dinner. Fireplace by the front windows, multiple drinks and foods available. Handicap entrance, but the counter to order has stairs so I'm not sure how that is handled.My wife and I went early morning on a weekday as soon as they opened. Limited seating inside, but we were able to get out items quickly. Filipino breakfast is served all day but it is very expensive for their servings. We got the longanisa (2pc) and spam (1pc) combo and it was around 10 after tax, but compared to Uncle Mike's around the corner, their portion seemed like an appetizer. I ordered an Ube latte. I took the pistachio milk (cost extra) vs whole milk. I was surprised and happy to see the it was not overly sweetened for a latte or an Ube drink. It's was more creamy from the milk and very subtle Ube flavor. The milk almost masks the purple potato flavor.I noticed that their lattes depend on their espresso machine. Unfortunately it produces one at a time so during rush hours, expect a wait.“
“The Best Filipino Food In The midwest And they always give US good portion And free sample To taste for next order Love The easy accommodation if you have a taste for pinakabet just Call them And they cook for you ❤️❤️❤️Love The kare kare And fresh Food every Day thanks Ruby Love your Food ❤️❤️❤️“
“This is my first time trying Filipino cuisine and every thing is GOOD! Highly recommend the sisig and halohalo (for dessert).The servers were welcomed and kind, and they encouraged us to try the dessert even though it’s close to 9 pm. Definitely will come next time.“
“Had a great experience my first time here. Food was delicious, portions were huge, and the service was phenomenal!! Service is what really stood out to me. Also they were very fast and gave a complimentary cookie and fortune cookie with the check. Highly recommended ! Try the combination rice can't go wrong.“
“The puto is amazing at Ima’s! It’s spongy, moist, and subtly sweet. Perfect! I purchased the plain, ube, and pandan and my family was very happy.I spoke whom I believe was the owner and he was very knowledgeable about dietary allergies (gluten-free, dairy-free, nuts). He also explained they make their own rice flour in-house by grinding their own rice. Amazing!They also have a hot bar of food and frozen desserts.Everything is to-go. No dine-in.“

“Had an amazing dining experience at Max's Restaurant in Chicago! The Filipino cuisine was absolutely delicious, and the service was top-notch. The warm and inviting atmosphere added to the overall enjoyment. Don't miss out on their signature dishes—they're a true culinary delight! Can't wait to visit again. ?? #MaxsChicago #FoodieHeaven“
“Excellent food. This is a true family operation with Lola in the kitchen making everything homemade. The bangus (i.e. deboned milkfish), chicken adobo, garlic fried rice, and lumpia Shanghai are ALL the best in class. The chicken adobo is so soft that it falls right off the bone. And the family is very nice, too. Great people, great food, and very reasonably priced.“
“Very inviting place, food is amazing, clean lavatory, a bit pricey but worth it for the quality you receive. Super authentic and place seems to be ran by husband and wife. Place is huge so you won't have to worry about waiting to be seated. Everyone here has a smile, staff is super friendly. If you're looking for great Filipino food, this is your place.“
