On Christmas I ordered a whole pig for a special occasion, and it was the worst pork I’ve ever tasted, it had no seasoning and taste like blood. Worst place ever!!!!! If you like ur food with seasoning don’t order here!! NEVER ORDER FROM HERE!!! They ruined my Christmas, I thought this was a place that served good food. The pork was colder than the weather outside! Terrible

I came here on a Sunday afternoon because I was craving for authentic Filipino lechon (not lechon belly). I ordered food to-go and I am definitely so glad that I tried this place!The lechon itself is very flavorful. It is definitely Cebu-style lechon, with a crispy skin and a juicy, flavorful meat. The lechon sauce was also really good and tasted homemade. It was a perfect accompaniment to the lechon. It was also priced well- only $20/lb and they usually serve it during weekends.The crispy pata was also very good. The skin was perfectly crispy and the meat was tender and flavorful. The dipping sauce was also legit, with a nice balance of spicy, tart, and umami flavors.The owner, Louie, and Nanay (I forgot to get her name) were very nice and accommodating. They were happy to answer my questions about the food and they gave me some recommendations. I can't wait to go back to try the other dishes on their menu. I'm especially intrigued with the lechon sisig!

DON'T EVER EVER ORDER LECHON FROM THIS STORE!!! The lechon we had last Saturday was devoid of belly!!! I only noticed it when I was looking for the belly as that was my favorite part of the lechon, only to find out that the belly portion is missing. When we took the lechon from the box, we didn't notice as the side part of the lechon covered the inside and we lifted the lechon with the paper on the base to transfer it to the lechon tray. They cut the belly part and put the pork on fire. No fats any more as the fat melted during roasting and the ribs inside the pork were burned as they were exposed to the fire. It was like skeleton!!! Not much meat, maybe they carved out the meat from the inside. This store is sooo full of crap in doing business. Two of my friends who ordered from them have the same complaint. We tried to call them, but they were not picking up the phone. I have pictures of the lechon to prove my case. If they can't cook real lechon, why go into that business??? I really hope they will close shop if they won't change the way they do business!!! I showed the pictures to my friends, so they won't order from this store anymore.Daisy G.

I was worried after reading some of the recent Yelp reviews but a lechon ordered early May 2023 was great, just as good as the ones we got pre-covid. No problems with being available at the right time either.

Sisig, pork on the stick, and the new smoked lechon, the best!

My teenage son and I were hungry after leaving the allergist. As we were walking around the area, we happened to see the sign for this restaurant and were intrigued. We ordered the delicious crispy pork and 2 portions of collard greens with tomatoes. Everything was delicious! Louie was very friendly and helpful. We saw other people coming in to order whole roast pigs from him for various large gatherings. We will be back to try other items on the menu like the brisket! Thanks, Louie!

We used to really enjoy coming here, but now things have really gone worse. Spending $400 on a huge lechon that we couldn't eat because we were given the male pig was a waste. The lechon and the sauce were once outstanding, but have now gone downhill. You'd expect the food to taste well, considering how much they charge. It's not worth your time to visit here. I won't be returning to this place again. I don't recommend this store.

Loved their Lechon and sisig, palabok, one of the best Filipino food I ever tasted and that’s counting my wife’s cooking. Will comeback here soon!
I WOULD NOT SUGGEST THIS PLACE TO ANYONE WHEN IT COMES TO BUYING LETCHON, THEY GONNA PROVIDE/SELL YOU A LETCHON AND WHEN YOU REACHED HOME YOU’ll BE SURPRISED HAVING A LETCHON WITHOUT A BELLY, THEY DO THIS TO SELL THE BELLY SEPARATELY..HAPPENS TO ME TWICE ALREADY, I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOMER OF THEM FOR MORE THAN 5yrs AND BEFORE THEY ARE PLAYING IT RIGHT.. THIS IS WRONG AND UNACCEPTABLE. SO BEWARE PEOPLE

I used to love this place... probably it still was the original owner.. Carlos Cancio. Now the "NEW" owner can't handle big orders. We placed one order of lechon for Christmas day the 25th at 2pm. When I arrived to pick up, they said it won't be ready until 6pm. We had our reunion at 3pm, what do we serve our guests...? The manager/owner could not even come up with a solution... oh they did... 1 free atsara...Look for somewhere else to get lechon

Newly cooked roasted pig. Delicious Chicken intestines that you dip in sweet vinegar.

I ordered/paid for large cebu style lechon last month and I received small regular lechon. I used to order lechon here and there was a time that we had to wait 20 minutes more and the skin was not crispy. Not ordering from this place anymore.

This is the first time ordering from them. It's cold out and so we order to go. Indoor dinning was closed due to the pandemic. Didn't get a chance to look inside.Dishes were authentic Philippino pork. Flavorful and smokey. I especially like the spicy vinegar sauce to go with pork BBQ on a stick. Garlic rice was very tasty as well.The lumping Shanghai was exceptional good. Different from spring roll, this tiny roll is filled with"sausage" tender and chewy. This is a dish only found in Philippino restaurant.Overall, it was a good dinner experience. I would give it a 3.5 at least!
