Update: Upgraded to 5 stars. It turns out, you can request additional protein for purchase and they have expanded their hours to dinner and brunch for some days of the month.
———- Delicious food with a great vibe. I stopped by their special Saturday brunch event. I had their Lechón plater and their recommended PH Breakfast plater. I’m glad that I took their suggestion. The savory and Smokey tocino spam was a nice match for the sweet longanisa. Also, why not having eggs and rice for breakfast?
Next is the Lechon. A roasted pork belly. This is one of my favorite Filipino dishes. The meat was super tender and the sling a bit crunchy. Great seasoning distribution and fatty as it should be.
Price-wise, the dishes are very affordable and you are getting quality food for fast food places prices.
I hope that if the business pick up, they are able to operate outside of the limited hours. Like many of people living in Bellevue, our work is in another city and can’t stop by during the work week. Also, looking forward for them to allow us to buy an additional side of...
Read moreTried this place for the first time today, and must say I'm impressed. I'll definitely be a repeat customer. The Lumpia was the best I've had, in my limited experience with it. It was delicious. I also ordered a few other things including Kalua Pork with garlic rice and a noodle dish with cabbage and carrots that I can't recall the name of. The flavors of everything were just great.
I've tried lots of restaurants around the country based on the good reviews they've gotten from people, and I'm usually disappointed. I'm hard to please and have an extensive history of trying every foreign food I encounter. Most American versions of foreign foods are a little (or a lot) bland in comparison to authentic foreign cuisine. This place though.... I'm so pleased with it. And the women I encountered inside were super friendly and helpful.
Can't wait until next time! I'm going to try their Spam Musubi and Tonkatsu. I'll eventually try everything. I can't imagine being disappointed. They're skilled cooks.
Thanks ladies! And thank you for serving me so close to...
Read moreNot authentic Hawaiian food... Filipino dishes are instead. As a native Hawaiian from Hawaii, were so excited to hear of a restaurant that would be serving Hawaiian food. Sadly, we were super disappointed. The menu is very limited, and 99.9% Filipino food. Why the heck are you claiming you serve Hawaiian food? The only item that is a little untraditional Hawaiian was the kalua pork and cabbage, which did not taste close to what we know in Hawaii. Also, manapua is Chinese and Buttermochi is Japanese. My advice is just be a Filipino restaurant that serves Filipino food and stop using 'Hawaii and Hawaiian' as your marketing strategy. Not only will people be disappointed (what we heard and seen) but you are insulating Hawaii food itself. We hope you succeed but dont believe you will if your not making true authentic Hawaiian food. Please don't ruin Hawaii and Hawaiian cuisine reputation. Good...
