Reviews

"As always, best Filipino food ever. The staff are so helpful! The Crispy Belly (Pork) is always great. Love the vinegar sauce on the side. It's never a miss. The Garlic Rice is just the right amount of garlic and texture is perfect. I like the Adobo (Pork) with the quail eggs. Made me into a person who now serves stuffed quail eggs as an appetizer. Cute, and tasty."

"Nilaga (Beef) omg... this soup was right on time. I added some cabbage and potatoes, so good. Adobo (Pork) tender, flavorful, no room for disappointment. Filipino Spaghetti (Beef) was more sweet than I would've liked. However, add a little hot sauce and spice, and yup yup."

"I wasn’t feeling my best today, but the delicious soup I ordered made all the difference. It tasted just like home, full of warmth and care. Every bite was comforting and flavorful, exactly what I needed. Their attention to detail is impeccable; the packaging was perfectly sealed, giving me peace of mind that my food was handled with care. Thank you for consistently delivering such amazing quality."
