You can see the kitchen from the counter, so it can be hot. Plenty of breakfast options to choose from. Halo halo ingredients had a good variety but they used crushed ice instead of shaved ice.

A wonderful quaint little restaurant run by people sharing their culture through food. I have never eaten Filipino food and I don't remember the name of what I ordered but it was DELICIOUS. The sausage was very savoury with a little sweetness and paired wonderfully with the garlic rice and sauce on the side. I would absolutely come here again!

The cashier w the bald head was so cute! Ngl I couldn't stop blushing when he took my order because he was so kind when he spoke. However I couldn't enjoy my food because it looks like chicken is mixed in w my Tofu. I should've picked the Veggie bowl because the food smelled so good. The ice coffee was delicious. I never had Ube before so I decided to give it a try.

We we there and ordered around 8:30 am and were the only people there. We ordered the Ube Tres Leches French Toast and the Tocino Eggs Benedict, and for drinks we got the Leche Plan and Turon Lattes. We sat down and waited. The coffee came out maybe 15-20 mins after we had ordered. Both were very sweet. The turon latte was basically just banana syrup. The leche flan was basically just caramel. We kept waiting for the food. And we could hear them even saying things like "what goes in [this dish] again?" We didn't get our food until 9:14. Almost a good 45 mins after we had initially ordered. It looked good. The Ube Tres Leches french toast was okay. Flavor was alright and the bread was good. But when you have a name like tres leches, i would expect the french toast to be drenched/almost custard like. But it was pretty dry. The tocino eggs benedict was alright as well. The eggs were cooked perfectly. But the whole thing just tasted like plain pan de sal. I couldn't even taste the tocino. The potatos that came with it were good and well seasoned though. I would come back to just try their ulam for lunch and dinner. But as far as brunch goes, it was just alright.

Huge fan of this takeout spot! I love their salmon sisig and crispy pork sisig. So tangy and flavorful. Serving size is also huge. Iβve also had their chicken sisig, pork adobo, chicken inasal, chicken tocino, pork longanisa sandwich, beef tapa, and turon. I donβt have a bad thing to say about any of them! The only thing I do not like is their veggie medley, which was a soggy stir fry that had more cabbage than any other veggie. I do wish they had more vegetable dishes to order as a side. The rice bowls mentioned above do come with small side of lettuce with caesar dressing, but I would prefer other options.
