The food was excellent and I will definitely be back. The only downside was the noise level, as the space was a bit loud. It would greatly benefit from some noise-cancelling installation.
The food and service at this restaurant are fantastic. It's a perfect spot for a Sunday brunch with unique breakfast options. However, it is on the pricey side. Paying $7.00 for a cup of coffee is quite steep. Our breakfast for 3 people ended up costing $132.00. Overall, the food and service were superb, but it's definitely on the expensive side.
I came all the way from Las Vegas to try the lechon at this restaurant in Chicago because Cebu, where I'm from, is famous for its delicious lechon. I was a bit let down because the skin wasn't as crispy as I had hoped and was a bit tough to chew. The meat itself was just okay. However, the lumpia and garlic rice were delicious!
Delicious food and great service. I loved how they made great recommendations and had such pride in their restaurant. The food experience was excellent. It would be good if they could add some decor to make the atmosphere a bit warmer and reduce the echo from the bare floors and shape of the venue. Can’t wait to return!
INCREDIBLE FOOD, great service, great vibes. I almost want to gate keep this place it’s so good. The perfect place for your Filipino fix especially anything ube, great breakfast food and pastries as well. 1000/10 will be coming back here

The staff are very nice and giving us recommendations! We arrived 15 minutes before our reservation and they let us in. The restaurant is very cozy, smells great. The food tastes delicious. Definately worth visiting!
I was really impressed by our meal! From the waitress being helpful with recommendations and even checking in on us right before happy hour ended to how flavorful all of the food was!We tried the calamari (it was perfectly breaded and crisp), lumpia, and Cebu Lechón (which was on special). I appreciated all of the sauces and unique flavors throughout.
Cebu's Lechon and Halo Halo are pure delights! The Lechon is a succulent and crispy roasted pig that is bursting with flavor, making every bite a heavenly experience. And the Halo Halo is a refreshing and colorful dessert filled with a delightful mix of ingredients like sweet beans, jellies, fruits, and shaved ice. Indulging in these Cebuano specialties is a must for anyone seeking a taste of the region's rich culinary heritage.
Really yummy Filipino food! I’ve eaten here for brunch and dinner ? great service and vibes
So delicious! I broke my vegetarian diet for the meal here and it was well worth it! The lumpia and adobo were so good and I wish I could eat the ube cheese pan every day of my life.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options are limited but they are there!
