    This is THE place in the Valley for BBQ. We got corn, mac and cheese, burnt ends, trip tip, ribs and brisket. Everything was amazing. I recommend trying their various BBQ sauces. The burnt ends were my favorite! We'll be back again soon... Thanks Ma's!

    Not good. No caramelization or smoke flavor.

    We wanted this to be good. It's so close and has great outdoor seating. But it's not. Save your money. Seem like good guys but they don't know bbq. The meat tastes bland like it' is baked in an oven and then slathered in sauce. No smoke flavor or caramelization on ribs or burnt ends at all. The sides weren't good either. The Mac and cheese was terribly overcooked. Like mush. Save your money.

    The meat was not only tender, but incredibly flavorful. The firmness was just right, so you could leave a bite mark on it. One time I got a beef rib with little meat on it. The owner gave me a replacement. It's a good idea to say something if you happen to get bad meat.

    Simple bbq food truck with food home style bbq. The Texas Twinkies were delicious and a were a medium hot in spice. The pulled pork was on point, moist and flavorful (my favorite). It had good smoke and sweetness to the pork. The sausage was tasty, had good flavors but a tad too dry for my liking. Good service, fair pricing, tons of homemade sauce choices, and appreciate the generosity in sampling the meats choices.

    I was very happy to stumble upon this place! Soooo good! The bbq was prepared so well and the slaw I got was so good! The guy working the food truck was really nice. I'd reccomend stopping here!

    Here's our Pulled Pork Sandwich with the side of Mac and Cheese. You see the texture of the Mac in this photo.

    This was our first time eating at this establishment we were so excited as we live in a small town so good options are more limited. It's a new spot with many different food places/choices all in one space called the Phoodery. We really love BBQ so we opted for Ma's my fiancé ordered and the women working the counter were rude and couldn't even fake being happy or crack a smile. He got the Pulled Pork w/ bbq sauce, jalapeños, slaw and pickled onions with a side of Mac and Cheese. When we got the sandwich it was very lightly dressed with bbq so he kindly went up to ask for a little extra and was met by a what do you want from one of the ladies working the line. Overall the sandwich was good. The mac and cheese was not great or very creamy it had more of a curdled appearance. 4 stars for the sandwich ~ 0 Stars for the service it was so bad that I had to give an overall experience a 3 we came on a Sunday noonish.

    Pulled pork and ribs

    Great roadside find after a long day of sightseeing. Friendly owners and fall-off-the bones tender and tasty ribs as well as pulled pork. Yummy sides included their own baked beans, potato/mac salad, Mexican corn. Highly recommended!

    SO happy we chose this spot! Service is stupendous:…read morefriendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, fun. The Kare-Kare is amazing: the peanut sauce was delectable, and the braised beef just seemed to melt away. Love the green mango salad. Julienne cut mango, perfectly ripened for the dressing for a not-too-sweet blend of flavorings. Perfect. Can accommodate gluten-free. I'll be back again very soon.

    Should you eat here? My recommendation is:…read more Yes, if you've stopped by every "New American" eatery in Ashland and want to relive your youthful visit to the Philippines and can't find any other place. No, if you're expecting perfect execution of the classics. Half of what you'd eat here, is more along the lines of "Pinoy-inspired". If you go here, be aware: - There is no fish sauce on the table - There is no vinegar chili sauce on the table - There is no salt on the table - A lot of the dishes here are missing many, many traditional ingredients. Many of which can be pre-stocked ahead of time or grown locally, so there shouldn't be a good reason why these dishes shouldn't have at least 50% of the base requirements. Adobo Chicken Seasoned and fairly traditional tasing with a good bit of seasoning and flavor. IMO lacking some tanginess, but that's a family style preference and can change from place to place. Green Mango Salad Has all the ingredients of a green mango salad but lacks the most important ingredient; shrimp paste and a pinch of salt. Kare-Kare Avoid this dish. I ordered this because one of the first photos showed shank bones (shank or flank is used as an acceptable replacement for what is traditionally Ox tail), so I was fully expecting something of that nature, especially considering shank is plentiful in this area. The meat added was very dry slices. The base lacked salt and fat during the cooking process, so it came out very bland. The string beans were boiled (again without any salt). String beans in this dish are traditionally served fresh, or if you cook them, you cook them in the broth, and/or pre cook them with some type of sodium on a pan and thrown into the pot. And because the base lacked fat that would have come from shank or ox tails, the base really suffered. Another missing ingredient was shrimp paste, and braised eggplant. Very disappointing. Sinigang Don't order this. This dish tased like water with a little bit of tamarind powder. This dish is missing so many ingredients: Taro root, okra, chili, fish sauce, fresh tamarind, water spinach. Powder is fine but it's missing so much that makes this dish unique and flavorful. Also note that this place is on the pricier side, so not getting the basics right hurt a little more than just the wallet.
