good food. good serving beautifull ambiance. very authentic filipino food.
Our family has enjoyed numerous meals here, and each time, the food has been exceptional. The consistent quality and delicious flavors are truly noteworthy.
We were the first customers at 8am. For dine-in we ordered Dinakdakan. It is the best one I have tasted with the smoky flavor making it standout. The servings were generous. We did some takeout like Pancit Batil Patung and Laoyang Kalabaw. The complimentary soup is the bomb like Filipinos claim "sabaw pa lang ulam na". The service is really great. Prompt waitress and cook. They made sure we are well attended.
Quite a long time in waiting for your order be served. But it just means meal orders are freshly prepared. The solo serving is generous. Price is budget friendly. Pancit Cabagan and Pancit Batil Patung tastes just right; not salty, not sweet. Poqui-Poqui dish is really yummy. Highly-recommended...
Super yummy! We ordered pansit cabagan, it looks normal serving but it really can make you full! There are a lot of lechon in the serving, I think I got dizzy at some point. Lol. Kidding aside, we already decided what we will eat the next time a must try!
Tried the Pansit Cabagan at Plato ni Juan Antipolo and it did not disappoint. The flavor is really close to the original from Cabagan, Isabela, which was a pleasant surprise. The food is freshly cooked, so expect a few minutes of waiting , totally worth it. The place is clean and well-maintained, though it can get a bit noisy since it’s right by the highway. Service is superb; the staff are attentive and friendly. Overall, a great experience. I’ll definitely be coming back!
We are regular customers. We dine at least 2x a month. As always, we come back for the very delicious food that is not very expensive. Definitely worth it! This is actually one of our comfort foods. Service is very good as well. Staff is very friendly
good savory tasty food, fantastic service, if you want food with a twist, one of the place to be, will definitely go back and try out other food/s on their menu
