My partner is always looking for the best pupusas in town, so I had to stop and get some to put them to the test. After an embarrassing interaction due to a Spanish/English language barrier (I really should know more Spanish), I worked out one order of chicharron pupusa, which included three and curtido. They were made fresh; I could see the man making them by hand! This also means receiving the order took some time. I wasn't in a rush, so I spent my time looking at all the delicious international products they hosted in-store. I noticed an $11.99 lunch special that I'll have to come back for and a bunch of spices that I need to add to my pantry. I received my hot and fresh order with a smile and waited for my partner before digging in. They were delicious! A true delight. The outside was just the right amount of crisp, and the inside was gooey cheese, pork, and beans. I can't wait to go back and try more. An FYI to first-time visitors: the parking lot only has one entrance, and you can speed by it if you don't notice. The parking lot is small, but this seems to be an in-and-out place, so I suspect it shouldn't be too hard to find a spot.

I have been here several times to pick up food, but this was my first time actually going inside to order. The line was long around lunchtime, but it moved quickly. It is fast casual style, so you walk down the line choosing what you want and then pay at the register. I honestly had no idea that was how it worked before, so I was prepared to wait a while. I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient everything was. I was in and out much faster than expected. While putting my order together, the man helping me handed me a sample rib over the counter. I am a very socially awkward person and do not handle unexpected moments very gracefully, so I probably reacted a little awkwardly. That part was on me. The rib was GOOD though. He was very kind about my reaction and even handed me a napkin. The whole staff was friendly, asking how my week was going and checking in to make sure everyone was happy. Even though it was busy, they clearly care about customer service. The food was great. The garlic and green onion sausage had so much flavor, and the bananamisu was the perfect sweet finish. I originally went in hoping to order the BBQ oxtail, but they were sold out within two hours of opening, which honestly says a lot about how good they must be. I had also gone the day before around 7 PM and they had already closed because they were sold out for the day. Just a heads up that they do close early if they run out of food. Overall, great food, friendly staff, and quick service. I will definitely be back and hopefully I will finally catch the oxtail next time.

The pulled pork and ribs were my favorite on the 4 meat platter! Others in our party enjoyed the brisket and the sausage.

The potato salad is also very good and the Mac and cheese. Love their pickles as well! You order at the counter and it didn't take long for the food to be ready. Seating is plenty inside the brewery!

When we arrived around 8:30pm, it was about a 30 minute wait but we assumed it was because of the Valentine weekend. Once we were seated, our server quickly greeted us and provided the run down of the food items for us to choose from. I absolutely loved how we were able to order our food right from the tablet at our table. It made ordering very convenient and the food was served pretty quickly. We tried some of everything, the Spicy Beef Bulgogi, Spicy Chicken, Sliced Ribeye, Garlic Pork Belly, Calamari and Scallops to name a few. We also ordered the Gyoza, a few sushi rolls and white & fried rice. After we ordered, we went to the sauce bar to grab our sauces and the area was very dirty. Some of the sauces were empty as well. They should have someone on sauce duty to keep that area clean because it was disgusting! I chose what I could and we headed back to our table. The food was fresh with the exception of the seafood, I wasn't a fan! My favorite was the Spicy Beef Bulgogi! Unfortunately, it did take a while for our server to change out the grill after we finished cooking. At one point, we both started coughing because the grill was smoking profusely as we waited for it to be changed out lol. Overall, I would give 3.5 stars. Our server was very friendly and the food was pretty good but I would probably try another Korean BBQ spot next time.

They apologize about being sold out and were so nice about it. I walked out the establishment sad. So I got in my car and got on Yelp to look for other places in the area that served Lechon. As soon as I was about to pull out, here come the owners saying that had some save for their sister. They said they didn't want me to leave empty handed and called their sister to see if I can buy it. I was so hype! The lechon is so good! Will be back for some more! Only an hour back home and it's almost all gone. Thanks for making my day! Good people, business and vibe! Tip- Make sure you call to order! So if you're in the area, stop by and give it a try!!!

Lechon or roasted suckling pig is a very popular dish in the Philippines. In Hampton roads we are…read morefortunate to be able to experience this amazing meal at House of Lechon on Princess Anne Road in Virginia Beach. Traditionally, lechon is slowly roasted and served whole and this is the way House of Lechon does it but every Sunday they sell it by the pound with a minimum order of two pounds. Whole pigs or by the pound orders require advance orders. They are only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM but you can place your order any day (for pick up on the weekend) by calling them on the phone or sending a message on Facebook Messenger. I've ordered both ways with success. This is strictly a take out restaurant as there is no dining room. On Sundays when they sell lechon by the pound they make a little extra for walk-in customers but I highly recommend placing your order at least a day in advance. I have enjoyed partaking of the whole pig a couple of times at events and have ordered a few pounds a couple times. It is truly a wonderful dining experience. The skin is crispy and the meat is so juicy, tender and delicious. It is served with a very nice dipping sauce. You can order the whole pig, the head, shoulder/butt or belly. Check out one of my photos for the price list. As I said before, you can order lechon by the pound for Sunday pick up. Staff is friendly and pleasant when ordering and when you pick up the order. My wife and I really enjoy their delicious pork.
