A bit pricey but it’s well spent money… food is well prepared and delicious…according to, Rocky, the mother of the owner, was very entertaining she was going around each table and introducing her son who according to her was the chef… kudos to the chef..the food was excellent and the presentation was very appetizing. I highly recommend this place for those who have not tried delicious Filipino cuisine. Oh the restaurant was also very quaint in one section and has a cozy outdoor tables too. By the way if you like to sing they also have karaoke machine…”Tara na”

Pork cheek & belly was a must-have with garlic rice. Breaded eggplant was amazing and absolutely don’t miss the Octopus dish and the heavenly dessert - jackfruit/plantain egg roll plus jackfruit ice cream. This place is an absolute gem in Lafayette.

Overall I'd give it a 4.5, BUT rounded up to a 5 because our first time was honestly pretty awesome. We walked in without a reservation and thankfully got a seat at the bar. They were very busy, but the staff all worked together to get things done and make sure the diners were happy. We even got to meet JB's (the owner) mom who came by to say hi and make sure we were happy. We ordered a nice mix of dishes and enjoyed them all. If I had to say anything negative it would be that the lumpia wasn't my favorite. I've had lumpia before and this one was lacking in flavor. The FPJ was their take on a margarita and it was delicious. The Kilawin dish was very flavorful with a bit of spice. The plantains had a nice bit of sweetness to go with the spiciness. The Sizzling Sisig lived up to its name and arrived truly sizzling and was delicious over the Garlic Fried Rice. We were too full to try dessert but next to us Irene was enjoying her birthday and said the Tres Leches cake was delicious. A bit pricey so not sure how often we will be able to come, but definitely excited to come back and try more dishes.

Pretty good. We got reservations since we had a party of five. The food was pretty good, though some were a bit too salty. My mom didn’t like it. The place has a nice ambiance and a nice outdoor seating area. It was a nice change from our normal dining experience. Parking was a little difficult, but at least there was an accessible space in the lot next to the restaurant. 3% was already charged to our bill.

Amazing atmosphere…it takes me back home. Our server and bussers were friendly and accommodating. The food is wonderful. I believe they just recently opened so the menu is limited but I would love to see more vegetarian options like my favorite, tofu sisig in the future and more filipino spirits like Don Papa and liqueur like Manille in their cocktails. The portion sizes are cute and I think they’re meant to be paired with cocktails! I’d say this place is best to bring friends and get tipsy!
