Great food! Tastes home-made. We tried combo plate with two different meat choices.

Trying this spot out for the 1st time because I love Philippino food and it didnt disappoint. For my main meal I got the curry chicken and bbq pork skewer.
1st off the BBQ pork was amazing I wish I got more than 1 for my meal , the curry chicken was ok packed full of ginger but not as flavorful as the pork skewer.
The lady at the register was nice enough to let me sample the pork adobo and that was , I highly recommend ordering the pork adobo when you come in here for lunch or if you cater.
This place has a home style vibe and felt very cozy inside like I was eating was family. I will definitely be back in the future to try more of the menu.

6 months ago I tried going there during their posted opening hours on Tuesday and they randomly just left (9:05 am). On their social media, they apologized and said that everything is better now. I called today to see if they are open. I purposely called an hour after their opening time to see what is available (10 am). A woman told me they opened up an hour late so they only have milkfish and nothing else. They should change their hours so that they have food available when they open. I like to support small, local businesses but this is unacceptable. Not sure I’ll try again, given their current track record.
——————————————-
I came on a Tuesday morning at 9:05 am and they were closed. The owner was inside but the doors were still locked and lights were off. The owner left shortly after without any notification. Why post your hours if you’re not going to work? I wanted to try this place but now I can see why there aren’t many reviews.

Never had Filipino food before but I really enjoyed this. The little sausages were unlike anything I’ve ever had before. I loved them. The owners are both really nice people. Cool spot

Just like his old store. Val’s cooking is so delicious and tasty. The food is great. I had the diniguam, miswa and bangus and I wasn’t disappointed. The place is a little bigger than the old one and it s’more organized. Nothing fancy but it’s real good comfort food.

Tapsilog was great. I’ve been here multiple times at this point and I must say that Val has not made a dish that’s disappointing. Everything that I have tried has been good.

A nice Filipino restaurant any foodie must try. Place may be a little hard to turn into on location but the food is worth it. Anyone born in IL, filipino community growing up knows this place. A legend. Try the Pancit, Fried Chicken if unsure. The biko for sweet lovers. Don’t be shy to ask. They do catering for events and after masses too. A family team of cooks you can trust. Masarap!

I came by when it opened one Saturday and they didn’t have breakfast ready yet, but they made some fresh for me! Garlic fried rice, fried fish, a fried egg, and some vinegar sauce. Delicious and a good price. Will be coming back when I’m in the area for sure!

My Family and Relatives have been a big fan of Val’s carryout and catering as far back when his store was located at the Brookhaven Plaza. He’s moved to a different location in Darien by Teddy Ted Hots. We enjoy everything he prepares! My favorites are his lumpia shanghai, pansit, adobo, and pinakbet!! You could do no wrong with anything Val prepares!!! He also has a beautiful assistant, his wife who’s welcoming and always accommodating! Please try Val’s cuisine!!

I like their food . Usually very delicious when they have stuff. They do more catering these days. So limited to what they have on hand in the restaurant most times I go. The owners are friendly and nice. They started to do Friday night fun night, which includes more dessert type items, with karaoke , movies, and fights on the TV. So far it been most family and friends of the owners that show up.all are welcome. It starts from 6 pm to midnight on Fridays. I believe it only for the summer months.
