Super helpful and explained all the dishes and my girlfriend and I decided on the lunch special, 2 mains and rice.

Everything was under seasoned as well - which was a shame because Filipino cuisine has the potential for so much more. They have a small stage ready for karaoke - which is a plus for parties.

They had live music (was a Saturday) and the atmosphere was super fun because multiple tables were celebrating birthdays/wedding anniversaries. It was more busy in there than I expected. We ordered lumpia shanghai, palabok, and sisig silog. All were really good and the portions for the palabok was pretty big and we had taken almost 1/3 for leftovers. Palabok had a nice shrimpy taste to the sauce which was nice. Our lumpia was deep fried and piping hot when it came out. Would come again for the boodle fight more people!!

If you are wondering where to go for a traditional Filipino boodle fight for just a group of four…read morepeople this is your place. It's hard to find places that offer this for only four people. Normally you need a lot more so this is an excellent little gem of a location to know. The service was really excellent, and you could tell it is family run. You can see also some personal memorabilia and collections in the bathroom, which really gives the traditional province feel of the Philippines. Philippines is a vast country with over 100,000 islands and this place gives me a feel of the province. The service was really good and the ambiance is nice. Though I would have life to see a few more things even like plants are photos in the main dining hall. Something to be aware of and it is a common problem for most places in Vancouver. Parking can be a real challenge so read the signs very carefully.

Overall, really positive experience with regard to taste, portion sizes, and prices. Dishes are definitely meant to be eaten with rich and shared with the table as they can be rich on their own. Service is a bit slow due how busy the place was (we came on weekend) and ambiance can be loud as people came in big groups. Spring Rolls ($14) Pork and vegetables based mini spring rolls. I'd say this is decent appetizer, but just so-so compared to the rest of the dishes Kare-kare ($25) Beef stew with peanut sauce, served with eggplant and bokchoy. They also give you shrimp paste on the side, which really helped to cut through the richness of the peanut sauce. Really good dish especially the the eggplant, but I find the beef had too much fat to meat ratio Crispy Pata ($24) I feel like this is the Filipino take on German pork knuckle dish. Always a fan of crunchy skin, and paired well with the soy based dipping sauce and pickled salad (serving similar purpose like sauerkraut) Halo-halo ($10) The only other halo-halo I've tried was served in a bowl, whereas this one is slightly tricky to share since it's in a glass. It's always interesting to see how SEA countries have similar dessert concept to one another, however the ube really made it quite different.

They even make their own sauces that are bottled and you can bring home. They seemed to be set up for take out and catering. But they do have seating for about 20-25 people. We ordered: BBQ Pork Combo meal $10.50 Chicken Inasal Combo meal $10.50 both with Garlic - Annatto Rice +$.75 each and we added pork spring rolls $4 The combo meals are tasty and filling. With a slight char on the BBQ pork which is what I enjoy when having skewers. Honestly the garlic- annato rice wasn't really worth it. I personally couldn't taste it over the sauce on either the BBQ pork or the chicken Inasal. And would have been happy with just regular rice. The lumpiang was meaty and everything I look for in a crispy spring roll. The dessert options area also great. Not sure if its seasonal but they had a slice of coconut (buko) pie in their fridge. Whole buko pie need to be per-ordered and picked up on the weekend. They also have leche flan and ube cheesecake for a sweet treat. Over all a great comforting small business with friendly staff and a meal under $12. How can you go wrong? Give Hapag Ihaw-Ihaw a try if you're in the area.

That means in order to get anything, you must wave down the waiter. The food is also very mediocre in terms taste. To make matters worse, the quantity of food is not filling either. Finally, many of their entrees do not come with rice. Therefore, they nickel and dime you from the individual orders of rice that you have to make to go along with the entrees. Only street parking is available for this establishment so be prepared to circuit around the neighborhood several times before finding a spot.
