Myself and my partner have been so excited to come here. We have been waiting for a good Filipino-style restaurant to come to Dublin. The decor is calm and cozy and the walls are covered with gorgeous artwork. We were served by Alex, who was very friendly and made us feel super welcome. We ordered the cherrywood smoked pork ribs, scallops, dynamite lumpia and masala fries. Everything was delicious, we left nothing on our plates. We also tried a few of their unique cocktails: Ube Colada, Mango Masala, Pandan Gin Fizz and Tamarind Sour! The Ube Colada was nice, I personally think it could do with a little more ube flavouring and coconut cream but the other three were flawless! We are already planning our next visit!
