    First things first - this restaurant has a very small seating area with two very small tables. We…read more(3 people) dined in, but I have to assume that almost 100% of their business is takeaway. That said, we were not like sardines in a tin, we were comfortable in the space we had. It is probably relevant, though, to mention that two of the 3 people in our party were very small Filipinas. The entrees were excellent. Those were, in no particular order, lechon, Bicol Express and pork belly. We also got a large side of lumpia, which was not bad, but rather, decidedly average, so it suffered in comparison to the superb entrees. Additionally, they sliced it into small diagonal-cut (think of the way ziti pasta is cut) pieces, which I imagine was done for the sake of presentation, but I didn't find it visually appealing in the least. No matter, it's a mere trifle compared to the overall meal. The Sapin Sapin dessert was also fantastic, and somehow we made room for that after eating the generous entrees. The service was attentive and professional without being overbearing. Definitely coming back here again, and so are the two Filipinas (Tacloban and Mindanao). I think that sums it up neatly, right?

    We decided to try this place because we wanted something different and were excited after seeing…read moreall the good reviews. Unfortunately, our experience started off on the wrong foot because of the customer service. The guy taking our order was not very pleasant and gave us a reluctant vibe from the beginning. When we try a new place, we usually order several different dishes so we can get a good variety of what they have to offer. We ordered three plates, and he asked, "How many people are you ordering for because you already have three plates?" That comment didn't sit right with us, but we let it go. As we continued ordering different items, he made more awkward comments, including, "Are you sure you want that? It's the same thing, just made differently." We honestly didn't understand why he was trying to discourage us from ordering. If someone is willing to pay for the food, why try to talk them out of buying it? It left us feeling very unwelcome. We waited nearly 30 minutes for our food, which we understood because we ordered a good amount. But when the food came out, there were no pleasantries or anything that made us feel welcomed as customers. Unfortunately, the customer service completely overshadowed the experience for us. Customer service is a big pet peeve of mine. If I feel like I'm being treated unpleasantly or made to feel unwelcome, I'm not likely to return. Safe to say, we will not be going back. As for the restaurant itself, it is very small. There were only about two tables inside, along with some outdoor seating, so I would not recommend it for larger groups. Three people would probably be the most comfortable for the indoor space. The food itself was okay. Honestly, I think we may have rated it higher if we had a better experience with the customer service. The two dishes we really enjoyed were the dinuguan and laing. They also give a good portion of rice. Unfortunately, when you combine the food with the customer service and the very limited indoor seating, this just wasn't a place we would return to. **Customer Service: 1/10** **Inside/Seating: 1/10** **Food: 5/10**

    I was out running some errands on my bicycle and remembered I wanted to try Makulit. I have been…read morepurposely holding off visiting this spot because the Modhaus indoor spot still isn't finished, but since I was just getting takeout I figured I might as well. The guy working at the cart was very friendly and I ordered the Very Good Morning. It traveled the 5 minutes home with me just fine, getting a little soggy on the way but acceptable. It's a huuuuge boi. This is a great big tall breakfast sandwich with a lot going on. It's very pretty to look at and the various tastes and textures were great. If you're in the mood for a serious handheld breakfast option and don't want another breakfast burrito, I would highly recommend this. I think next time I might go with the smaller one which I think just omits the hash brown patty and avocado? Either way it was really good. Can't wait for Modhaus to finish their build out so I can come back and enjoy some of the other options at Makulit which look LIT!

Personable guys at the Makulit food truck. I ended up ordering a Baby Bunso and Chicky Bites with two dipping sauces. The Baby Bunso is a 4oz longanisa patty with cheese on a soft bun. The Chicky Bites are essentially chicken karaage but using chicken thigh meat. I ended up with the BBQ sauce and burger mayo sauce, guess they were out of the spiced vinegar. Since it was a hot late afternoon, I was thankful to be provided a steel cup with water while eating onsite. No fuss food, packed with lots of flavor, and with Filipino flair!

    Holy smokes, yes please. This place is amazing. This spot is more of a order at the front and…read morethey'll deliver to you. But even then the vibe is still really elevated with the interior feeling clean and giving off an industrial vibe. Everything about the food was beautiful. The Heydey milk bun is so most unbelievably soft brioche-esqe piece of bread and really made the breakfast sandwich. We got it with pork belly and it was beautifully cooked. It was soft and fatty but still held its structure. We did also get a longanisa silog. The longanisa was a little more smoked and cooked than I liked, but the pork sandwich more than made up for the silog. The silog was still good, just may try another protein next time.

    My boyfriend and I stopped here on a Friday night for some sigig. I had never had this dish before…read morebut was excited to try. We each ordered our own plate. Mine was made both df/gf to met my dietary restrictions. The sigig was made with pork belly and had an egg on top. You can choose to upgrade to sun rice which my boyfriend did. He enjoyed it but not sure if he would get again. I got the mango peach hot sauce which had a kick to it with tons of flavor. 10/10 I would love to buy a bottle and use on my eggs in the morning. I ordered the matcha margarita which to be honest I didn't have high hopes as matcha to me tastes only just okay. However, I was impressed with this drink as it tasted like a less sweet margarita which i enjoyed immensely. Other notes, you pay up front and get a number. Some seating in and outside. Also street parking which could be challenging depending on the time of day you are here.
