their food is to die for, atmosphere is mellow but good, the service has always been great. sometimes it's hard to get a grasp on when the kitchen closes on what days since it isn't posted. My only complaint is that I can't uber eats or Doordash their food, especially when I'm craving that garlic rice!!

We came in for drinks and snacks. Maybe because they first opened but the bartender didn't know a lemon drop. The fries were some of the best I've ever had but the lumpia had too much shrimp or fish sauce.

This place has potential, but it did not during its holiday event and it doesn't now. The fries are overly salty and the burgers lack some flavor. Drinks are overpriced for the taste. We also got charged automatic gratuity even though everyone paid in separate groups? Wonder how they picked who paid that since they didn't ask us once how we wanted to do that? We were told 5 minute waits multiple times, which ended in a 30 minute wait to get in. The decor was nice during Christmas time but that was truly it.

so we came here for the christmas pop up but they had the busy body food menu and it was so amazing. they have filipino inspired dishes: lumpia burger and tamarind fries were ones that i tried. the burger was SO juicy and flavorful.. i just wish it was on a harder style bun like a ciabatta to hold up to the juice it got a little mushy. but it was still delicious. the ambiance was great the servers were friendly and helpful with the menu. would highly recommend coming here - christmas pop up or not!

It. Was. Freezing. Out. Not even, really. So we went out to eat. Started with a Witch and two Hustlers to warm us up. We ordered some family tama fries and garlic rice for sides as well as a lumpia burger, a musang dog, and some wangzzz for eats. The bartenders were super friendly and accommodating. They brought out menus immediately in case we didn't want to QR them. Ordering was easy and drinks were provided almost immediately. The hustler was great - smoky mezcal with some scotch, ginger, lemon, and spiced honey. We love mezcal's smokiness in drinks! The witch has a very amaro-like flavor and was very good. Food came out FAST. The garlic rice was awesome - one of favorite sides of any culture. The fries were great and the banana ketchup was something I hadn't eaten since my freshman college roommate made it. All of the main dishes were excellent, but the lumpia burger was my fave. The wangzzz were crispy and the adobo was very good and super, super tender. The dog, built around an Uli's sausage, was super flavorful. Now, the lumpia burger. That was something special. So good. The table was cleared promptly and new drinks ordered by our friendly bar staff. Busy Body is a fun Saturday night out with great food from Musangtino's. Stop in. Have some drinks and great Filipino food.

We came here for the Christmas pop up bar. The interior was decorated and cute but the drinks were definitely expensive at $20 a drink. I'm not sure how much the drinks normally cost. We each had a burger, they were ok but definitely pretty saucy and a little on the soggy side. I did like the flavors of my burger which was a take on lumpia.

There is a good amount of buzz about this place. As such, I expected much more in the way of, well, everything. The food is not good: I was with a party of eight. Everyone had something different (or a different combination) from the menu. Everyone complained. I had lumpia and adobo rice. Never again. The drinks: I had a Wildcat (frozen drink). It was complex and delicious. Everyone mentioned how good their cocktails were. My advice: Go for drinks. The end.

Decor is great, drinks are pricey. You also have to wait in a line unless you are there in the wee hours before
