We had sisig, bicol express and crispy pata.

The sisig was a little burned but otherwise very crispy and tasty. Slightly caramelised or sticky. (4/5)

The bicol express had a great coconut sauce, but the pork would have been better if it were fried prior to integrating it with the coconut sauce. (4/5)

Can't really fault the crispy pata in any way. (4.5)

The service was excellent. Their shake machine was out of order, so we had to get mango and pineapple juices from 7-11. Throughout the course of the meal, they offered ice refills for our drinks. They were attentive and courteous. (4/5)

The atmosphere had some typical filipino music, the decor was typical and the servers were typical filipino...
