The Filipino food here was truly authentic and full of flavor. Every dish was served generously and tasted just like home-cooked meals. From the first bite, it honestly felt like being back home. The portions were great, the presentation was inviting, and the overall experience was amazing. The staff were awesome—friendly, welcoming, and made the whole visit even better. I truly hope more people come out to support this restaurant because it deserves all the love for bringing real Filipino comfort food to the community.

I ordered the loco moco ground beef patty with lots of gravy which was topped with a over medium egg on a scoop og harlic rice. Not to mention the very crisp tater tots. The beef patty was a little overcooked but still delicious. Maybe next time ask to have the beef patty medium. We also ordered bangus fish and lechon kawali with garlic rice which was even a better choice. The tocino was homemade which i appreciate. All in all a good filipino restaurant with a great selection.

On a warm October afternoon, I needed a place to eat with my partner. We ended up choosing this restaurant based on the recommendation of a Filipino friend. And this place did not disappoint at all. Though we were a little confused as you enter from what seems to be a side door, to be then seated either inside or outside, the menu continued our confusion. The menu is massive, with so much text. It might as well be classified closer to a novel than a menu, however underneath all of this confusion, there is a hidden gem in the food. A few of the highlights were the Lechon Kawali and the Fried Bangus. The flavors were outstanding and you must choose the garlic rice over steamed rice every time. The only drawback was the soup that came in the combo was way too salty, as if it had been reduced for 3 hours too long. Regardless, everything else was super delicious and the value was really good. The vibe was authentic and it felt like I found my #1 Filipino restaurant.

Decent size cantina. I liked that they have ‘sungka’ on the table to use while waiting for your order. Plenty of sauces and oil for condiments. Service is great. Friendly, accommodating and helpful. I ordered the Sisigsilog, and I like the generous portion. The plating of the food is actually efficient and labor-saving with the use of banana leaf on top of bamboo paperplate. The sisig was good but i think it needs a bit more mayo. Nonetheless, it did hit the spot. Will definitely come back again.

Got there when it opened so there was no waiting on a late Tuesday afternoon. When I read the menu, it warned in advance that everything is made to order, so customers might have to wait, but seeing as I got there, I didn’t have to wait a long time.
Lechon Kawali was crisp and hot, the silog had the right amount of garlic, tho I’d appreciate plain rice as an alternative. Like the availability of condiments on the table.
Liked the small touches, like blankets available for the outside diners, as well as the shell game on each table.
When I return, it’ll probably be with a bunch of people.

Love some good Filipino food! Everything were so tasty. The only “meh” was the pansit bihon. They cut the noodles about .25” so they sort of looked like leftover. Not that great tasting either. But the shrimp, Tocino and tamarind soup were yummy. They have polite and friendly staff. They are all efficient! Price was also fair and you will be full when you leave. Highly recommend!

Ate here last week and really enjoyed their bangsilog! Cooked fresh to order and the size of the milkfish was huge compared to other places I’ve tried. It was also not dried out like other places. One of the best I’ve had in the Bay Area!
I also like how they have all their dipping sauces available at the tables. Will definitely be back to try other dishes and dessert!

Brought my family here from our of town around brunch/lunch time. They have mancala at the table while you wait. I ordered the pork moco while my wife order some kind of fish stew.
The pork moco is delicious. It came with tater tots and they smothered it with gravy so it was perfect. The rice given is garlic rice and it complements the entire dish no matter how you combine it.
My wife fish stew was also excellent. Its mackerel in a tomato sauce similar to the ones you get in a tin can but they added extra spice to it. It’s not a knock on it, I find it very delicious and I would actually prefer this over my pork moco.
Either way for the two dishes I ordered, can’t go wrong with either of them.

A great homey Filipino restaurant in Santa Clara. Parking lot is a lil tight and small but should be enough for the plaza (if not find street parking)
Overall a great experience, went on a Friday night and got their burrito which was huge.
Their combo meals are good cuz it comes with soup and ice cream.
Happy hour menu is great for lumpia
Overall a great experience as the owner was super friendly and helpful and served his customers happily

Welcoming and cozy atmosphere. Food is homemade, made one by one – explains why they are delicious! Staff are attentive, and the owner often checks in with people, even recognizing patrons that visit.
They also occasionally play some city pop – heard plastic love even come on the radio!
Silog platters are great value as well. You can add more meats for just a little bit more. Tried the ribeye steak, was also pretty good.
Great place for any kind of meet up, whether casual or for post-work vibes.
Highly recommend this place.
