Food was fairly decent, freshly cooked. The pork lechon kawali was a little too overcooked and tough. Staff was friendly though. Pricing was average.

Most under rated place 4.1 stars doesn't justify the overall staff food and place itself as you can see in the picture per tray is only for $15-18 and SABAW if you know you know. Recommended to all my family and Filipinos!!!!!

Very good food. It’s a little pricey for just one, but worth it. Would be great to-go food, or dine in with friends/family.
