Well, talk about a hidden gem. I had this place bookmarked but could not tell you where I heard…read moreabout it. It is basically a little luncheon oasis dropped right in the middle of a gigantic industrial park. On the drive over I was seriously questioning my Yelp choices. It is that kind of location. But trust Yelp and sometimes you are handily rewarded, which we absolutely were. We came after a few hours strolling around at the Botanical Gardens, so we rolled in around 1:30 and there were still plenty of people there. I can only imagine at noon this place is packed, and honestly it should be. My biggest complaint is the menus. There is one above the counter that does not include everything, and then a different, more complete version if you scan the QR code at the table (But 2 different navigations even on the website with slightly different menus). Do yourself a favor and look it up ahead of time so you are not standing there making panic decisions. There is a half sandwich and half soup combo (Not on the board but online menu), which is definitely the move. I got the pozole, which you should absolutely order, and a half grilled cheese on their housemate sourdough. Normally not my go to, but I was trying not to be completely stuffed since we had dinner plans. And they bake their own sourdough, so I had a strong feeling it would be great, and it delivered. Toasty and melty, American and cheddar. My husband got the southwestern wrap, and my friend went with the half club and half tomato soup. She immediately regretted not getting the pozole and the half birria sandwich, which tells you everything you need to know. Also need to mention the snickerdoodle. Not much to look at, kind of humble, but it completely makes up for it with flavor and that perfect soft texture. Go ahead and get the cookie. You are not here to make responsible decisions. Bottom line, it may feel like you are driving into the middle of nowhere, but keep going. This place is worth it.

So I was really disappointed to learn today that they no longer offer a kids menu. The food here is fantastic, truly. But with kids, we relied on children's portion sizes and children's prices, and without that option, bringing the family here just doesn't make sense anymore. Unfortunately, we won't be coming back until the kids menu returns. I really hope it does -- we'd love to keep this a family tradition.

After waiting for years for this building to be converted from a dry cleaner to a restaurant, it…read morefinally happened. And even then it took us a few years to finally drop in and give this place a try. Not sure if this is the first or second restaurant in this location since the changeover. So finally today we stopped in. The inside was much larger than I expected it to be. It was very fresh and clean on the inside. The inside had a little bit of a 1950's vibe with its light turquoise padded booths and chairs. Along with fresh clean walls and similar tones of turquoise, it was a very refreshing visit. The restaurant was sort of divided into two sections. The main dining area and a smaller area on the side with mexican sweets, sweet breads etc. It is a nice little area to come for coffee and a treat for breakfast. They also have bread and tortillas for purchase. I ordered the fried tilapia and grilled veggies. The tilapia was very good but I didn't care for the veggies. Also came with rice. There was a lot of food on that plate and the piece of fish was big too!!! The prices were good. Staff was friendly and attentive. Definitely be going back.

Luckily we tried to go before church let out and all the heathens (haha) thought the same thing and it was busy. They were really sweet in the service, kept apologizing for food coming out late, but we didn't think it took that long. So we basically had the left side of the menu. Our favorites were definitely the Lechon meal, the Ube pancakes, the Longinista meal, than the Spam meal. My husbands favorite was the Pandam pancakes. They were sweeter than the Ube ones. We got 5 meals, 2 pancake meals, 6 drinks, and an order of Lumpia, all for $108.00 WOW !! That was so cheap, to feed 6 grown adults. Loved it !!

I'm usually pretty particular when it comes to Filipino food, but after seeing all the great…read morereviews for Mari's Kitchen on Yelp and TikTok, I wanted to give it a try! I stopped by for a late lunch and ordered the Tapsilog with sliced beef, egg, and rice. My first impression was great. Everything looked clean and spacious, and everyone was so kind and welcoming. The restaurant is also tucked inside an office building, which I thought was such a cute and unexpected little spot. My food came out in less than 10 minutes, so service was quick! The rice portion was super generous, especially compared to the amount of meat you get. As for the tapa, the flavor was a little different from what I'm personally used to. I'm from California, and the Filipino food I grew up eating tends to have a different flavor profile, so this version was new to me. The beef had more of a tangy, very sour flavor and aftertaste. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing at all, simply not the style of Filipino food I'm accustomed to. I think this comes down to personal preference more than anything! I didn't end up eating as much as I expected, so I was still hungry afterward. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another dish to see what else they have to offer. Overall, the space was lovely, the service was wonderful, and everyone made me feel welcome. It's a beautiful small business, and I hope people continue to support them!

I like to eat in nice surroundings and in a descent neighborhood. However, from what I read about THIS food, it made me change my mind. Not in a great neighborhood and in an old strip mall, we seated ourselves. I think at one time this place was nice but now it needs freshening up. But none of that matters now after the food experience that we had. We started with the rich and delectable Roasted Poblano Cream Soup. Oh man, oh man, oh man - my friends, this is a must try. But that was nothing compared to the next dish of Signature Pollo Sazon. Description from the menu: Chicken breast stuffed with chorizo, poblano peppers, and queso Oaxaca, cornmeal breading, pan-seared and laced with a house ancho chile honey sauce. Folks, there were so many flavors going on, I don't even have the words to describe the deliciousness. And what a beautiful presentation! I will definitely try this place again and again.

The space feels a bit stark - the blue and white decor and the harsh fluorescent lights aren't doing the space any favors. A lot of the signs have a "laugh, live, love" sensibility.

I liked the hearty serving on the veggie omelette - it comes with your choice of a wide variety of sides. I tried the hash browns and they were perfectly crisp and salty. I also picked a biscuit for a little extra carb-loading. So delicious!
