    We've been here several times before. First time was great and we were so happy to have a filipino restaurant close to us. Second time wasn't as great but it was during covid . Third time was good so we vowed to go again. This time the food was excellent! We felt that they really stepped up their game. Each dish was delicious. Service was good but they were busy so we had to wait to get someone to come to our table when we needed something. The room has loud acoustics so it gets loud when it fills up so it's an energetic vibe. We brought our own wine and corkage was only $15 which is AWESOME! I'm always happy with reasonable corkage fees. So happy to be able to get tasty yummy filipino food close by!

    Fifteen of us were warmly welcomed for lunch at two tables. With a vast menu, the gluten-free person and the vegetarian at our table were satisfied. The food was brought quickly and overall was very flavorful. I enjoyed the fish with veggies. The salt & pepper tofu was crispier than I’ve had but tasty. Overall, everyone enjoyed the afternoon.
