    With all decorations, including waitstaff, dressed for Christmas it was a festive atmosphere. Even the outside eating on the patio was bedight with colored lights and decorations. The food was excellent. Having eaten at this location during the holidays for several years this was absolutely the best food I have seen them produce. Even the desserts were outstanding.

    Went here for our Noche Buena and ordered mostly filipino food - Pork sinigang, crispy pata, and adobo rice. We also ordered the wagyu on crispy rice, crab roll, and molten chocolate cake. We were given complementary bibingka. All the filipino food were PERFECT! They tasted as expected and felt exactly like home. We were stuffed and will definitely be back to try other stuff on the menu. This is honestly one of the few restaurants that does filipino food really well.
