The food was delicious, the service was friendly and the ambience was very nice. I ate here in Early August. Now I’m back in the bay from Washington, D.C. for a few days and I’m taking my wife to eat there. I can’t wait to feast! I’ll add a second review then or maybe I’ll let the Mrs. do so.

The two go great together.

Food is unique, delicious, and served fairly quickly. The adobo ox tail and the crispy pork binagoongan are highlyrecommended.

It was decent, but I've definitely had better. I'm used to it being served with chopped jalapeños and onions to mix in. On a positive note, the interior is fantastic and the menu looks impressive, so I'd like to give it another shot. I’d rate it around 3.5 stars, but since that's not an option, I’d have to give it a solid 3. I might return to try something different next time.
