What a nice restaurant, very friendly staff. all you can eat is awesome. Lots of baboy or pork at the bar, the salad is ok but the only thing I left wanting was lumpia. For the parking there are free parking spots along the road that are taken. We parked at the bank of America parking lot just a few blocks up and walked around to all the shops.

Came at noon on a Friday. Taste quality varied, but literally none of the hot food was even warm, really worried about the potential for food poisoning. No heating elements under the hot food trays or hot lamps over the hot food trays, everything was cold, really disappointing...

Not a good place for parties. They take back to back reservations and they will only give you exactly 1 hour to finish your event. If you don't start packing up they will FORCE you out. Their staff will will start putting away food, turn off lights, tv etc.. It is a very embarrassing experience. This is my first time posting a bad review, I feel obligated to get this known so others won't make the same mistake of hosting a party at this place. Apparently they care less about your event, they only value how much money they can make. If you want fun memories for your event...this is definitely not a place to build those memories.

Definitely not a good place for parties. I made a reservation weeks before the event and they decided to call me on the day of the event, 2 hours before my reservation telling me that they can only accommodate us for 1 hour. Since I cannot make changes at the last minute, I have to rush my guest to eat and at exactly 1 hour, their staff FORCED us to leave by turning off the lights, TV and putting away food etc. It was an embarrassing experience. I would not normally post a bad review but I feel obligated to inform others who may be considering this place for big events...definitely think twice if you want to enjoy and have fun memories. They apparently don't care. It looks like they only favor the people who will pay more. I later found out that they took another reservation after us. I wonder if they also got kicked out?

It's fun and good to try at least once. The bringhe dish which is especial rice cooked with coconut milk is really nice and unique. Staff are very friendly and once we showed interest they explained all the food and dessert options. Quality of the other foods is average. Another reason giving three is that at the time we visited most of the food were almost cold and the heater under them either not working or not strong enough.

This place is the one I always prefer. I eat in many restaurants but to this place I constantly return again and again. The crew is very warm and the cooking they place on your table is so fresh and tasty. I never decline to have a decent meal here. I recommend this place with pleasure.

Great experience! Service... food... portions... all great! I had the green coconut lamb (first time) and it was amazing. The naan is just like my mom used to make. We will definitely be back!
