-First impression about this place is it feels like you walked into someone's home. To most its a good thing and maybe to a few , not so good. They have longer tables instead of individual tables so that customers can sit together and almost eat like a family. The service was excellent, and they are very attentive.-The food , was good but a little expensive.We ordered the chicken inasal and I wish they didn't cut up the chicken but instead just serve it whole because when you cut it up , the tiny pieces of bones can be chewed and hurt your mouth.The sisig I wish was cooked with mayonnaise but nonetheless was still tasty.The halo Halo and maiz con hielo wasnt too sweet was just right.And the presentation for everything they served was nice but it was a little weird that they gave us paper plates and plastic utensils.I would give this place a 4.5Update may 14 2022- tried their other dishes and was not disappointed, they also got rid of the paper plates and plastic utensils ??? it just made my experience a lot better

Great place with amazing food and great people. This is a family owned restaurant and they are very welcoming and they really make sure you feel like home. The food was out of this world, I'll definitely be back soon!

First time eating Filipino food and definitely won’t be my last! The restaurant is very homey and the staff is extremely welcoming and nice, making sure you’re getting a great experience. The food is absolutely amazing. I mean EVERY bite is so flavorful. Got the lumpia, bangus, langonisa, tapsilog, and halo halo. Cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu!

I loved this place! Our server Janette was so sweet and accommodating! We ordered the pancit at inasal, lumpia, and the tokwat baboy! Everything was so delicious ? To finish everything off we had the Halo Halo which was really good too! They give you ample of food for a good price! The staff is so welcoming too!

This restaurant feels like you are sitting in a quaint dining room. This is a cute family owned business and everything is made by the family themselves. We ordered a few things to share; the pork eggrolls, pancit bbq combo, bitter melon, and the marinated beef combo. We finished off with the halo halo which was super refreshing and tasty. Highly recommend this place and will be coming back.

Great Filipino food. The owner are so accommodating

Amazing food and friendly staff!! Highly recommend. Hidden gem in Fort Lauderdale!! You will not be disappointed.

SARAP!!! DELICIOUS!!! Great food, great atmosphere, great service. This place serves authentic Filipino food, served super fresh with all the details to make the dishes tasty. It reminds me of homemade cooking, but taken with so much care and detail. We will be back, for sure! And taking the rest of the family.

presentation was spot on, staff was great, best Filipino dishes we've ever had. Very clean!

Best Filipino restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. We came around 6pm and they still accommodate us for dine in. Very nice staff, food was amazing, and very clean establishment.
