Love the desserts! Our food had a little too much soy sauce. But overall experience is good.

Finally tried them for the first time tonight. We had the spring rolls and popcorn chicken for apps. The veggies in the spring rolls were good - chunky and still had a little crunch to tgem, which I like. The serving of popcorn chicken is really big for an app, enough for 2 people to share. For entrees, we had the fried chicken sandwich and the pancit. The sandwich was really tasty, and was actually to big (for me) so I took the second piece of chicken off and packed it to take home. I was curious about how the ube bun would taste, but I ate it all together, so I didn't notice anything different or alecial about it. The pancit was with veggies - cauliflower, onions, string beans, and I think some kind of eggplant. Like the spring rolls, the veggies were well cooked/still a little crunchy. The dish overall was well seasoned. They offer delivery and take out, but we ate in. Their space is casual and small, with a bench for people waiting for their take out orders and seating for about 12 people. There were two people waiting for take out orders when we arrived, and another one who came in while we were there. We were the only ones eating in, so the service was fast and very friendly. I have no complaints and the food was delicious, so I plan to be back.

Holy moly! Great food. Ordered on seamless. Arrived very quickly and hot. You can tell the ingredients were of good quality and fresh. My fried chicken sandwich was perfect. Tasty homemade blue bun & perfect fry on the well-seasoned chicken. The veggies in my pancit were fresh and expertly charred. Will 100% order again. Now to visit in person.

First the good: the owner or operator of the store was very nice and treated us well. The bad: the food was not good, and certainly not Filipino food. Perhaps Filipino inspired is a better way of classifying it. Either way, the taste wasn't to our liking. The restaurant is extremely tiny, with all of 2 tables. We ended up standing for half our meal. Better as a take out place. Edit: from 2 to 3 stars. I really appreciate the owner's response. Truly the food is Filipino-inspired. I think for what it is trying to be, they do a decent job.

we are staying 2 blocks away from this restaurant for our vacation. We got into town and were hungry so we searched for restaurants near us. Tama came up and since my family is from the Philippines we decided to try it. The Filipino part of my family said the different offerings we tried were just like home. I also enjoyed everything we ate. We will probably return again before returning home

We ordered the bicol express (pork belly), lumpia shanghai (pork spring rolls), Adobe chicken, and sauteed seasonal veggies. It was all delicious! Would especially recommend the lumpia shanghai and Adobe chicken - great flavor, the chicken and pork belly melts in your mouth. We went home with leftovers. A small place, seats 8 people, friendly staff.
