2022-Feb: We arrived at 1 pm. The front parking was busy.

We parked behind the building. The facility has a little grocery inside. It's clean. It has single-stall toilets. Jennie, the owner, and her sister Lina, were both nice.

The restaurant side of the facility is only open every 11 am to 2pm on Monday through Friday. They are close on Saturdays & Sundays. The market side is open until 7 pm Sunday through Friday.

We were seated right away. The lady took our drink order right away. We grabbed a plate and tried each entree in the buffet. Lots of choices (from chicken adobo, sinigang soup, pinakbet, pork bbq, pansit bihon, pansit sotanghon, and so much more!! They even have banana-Q, corn bread, and ginataang bilo-bilo! Very, very tasty!

4 of us, with one soda drink, our total came to $60.23 with...

Came to visit my aunt and she told me about getting lunch and a few Filipino sweet breads from here. The lady at the cashier was very helpful and pleasant. They serve a buffet lunch from 11 am to 2 pm according to other reviews. We got there before 11 and the place was full. We didn’t stay but got a to go box(about $13.00/box based on my receipt ). The selections were great from pork /chicken bbq, various pancit, vegetable lumpia, lumpia shanghai, mungo with ampalaya leaves(this was what we came for and they provided a styrofoam cup for it which was very convenient), Filipino fried chicken,and kare-kare(that could use more peanut sauce though the veggies were done well) and much more if you look at the pictures included on this post. I would like to stay and dine...

We travelled from SC to pick up my daughter and didn’t have time for a dine in. We stop by for a to go plate. The food selection was limited and it was a few minutes before closing. But the staff are very accommodating and nice people. They’re all smile and thank us for stopping by. My daughter really love this place that’s why we had to try. Wish we had time to go there the next day but we left home early. The binignit that we had tasted great, but definitely can improve by adding vanilla. Other than that everything was good. Food that reminds me of us of home. My pictures aren’t that great to showcase their food. But this was taken during the few visits my daughter made with her friends. The place is all you can eat...
