Love this place! We were on the way for a spontaneous trip to LA county and.. wow! What a hidden gem! Every dish was fresh and perfectly cooked from the kalderetang kambing, pork bbq, bistek, and lechon kawali. I wish I could have posted better pics but we were so hungry We will return here again. Thank you for the owners for being so nice and accomodating early Sunday morning. You all made our day!

Excellent service, friendly staff and delicious food. Went in to get some crispy fried pork and they took the time to refry it before serving it to me. Great pricing for portion sizes. Will be back. Highly recommend.

I came here for lunch. It taste it good for being a fast good. Also the price was good. In general the food taste was really delicious. I will defenitly come back again. Reason I gave 4 start because I wished that the employers were little bit more friendly. Other than that I will give it 5 starts.

i am writing this review while i a having lunch. it is first time visit. i was in the area to visit my doctor. Two ladies working behind the counter. Both greeted me warmly when i said it is my first time visit. Both engaged with me Food tasted home cooking and very tasty. The lady must be the owner who helped me with my order and also siopao. it is a happy place. Every customer is treated with kindness. i will he back.

We used to go to the mall for their food and now that they have this new location we find it much better with more tables and more wide clean seating area. The food is still one of the best if not the best in the area. It’s fresh. The lechon kawali is a must try. I have to commend the owner Serran for her amiable excellent service. My partner from England definitely approved this location and fresh food as well.
