Customer Reviews
Service is great. Staff gave good recommendations and explained each dish very well. Maybe i chose the wrong dish but my spaghettini was not good. Flavor is a bit bland and pasta noodles were undercooked. The puff pizza is great but a bit messy to handle. The teriyaki chicharron was so so. I didnt like the combination. Each ingredient stood out and did not mesh well overall. Small dining place with a fee tables. Very cozy but the place is a bit hot. But not too bad. I would try again and maybe choose a better dish.
I expected the place to be packed, but it was surprisingly calm when I walked in. The staff were super friendly and really on top of things. I ordered the chicharon teriyaki, gravlax and schmear, and a ruby pistachio tart. When I asked about their pastries, one of the staff members actually took me over to their pantry and showed me what they had. He even brought out a tablet to show pictures of everything, which was a nice touch. I really enjoyed the chicharon teriyaki. The gravlax and schmear didn’t quite hit the spot for me, but that’s probably just personal taste. The ruby pistachio tart was great, and the iced tres leches latte was pretty refreshing too. I also appreciated how the waitstaff cleared my table right away after I finished each dish, giving me more space, which was nice. Overall, I had a great experience here and definitely plan to come back to try more of the menu when I can! I'm also gonna add pictures of myself because ang ganda ko lang.
Liked this restaurant. Felt the cozy and homey vibe. Unique menu choices. You can’t help but notice the fusion approach to food. While I liked the salad , soup and entrees, the flaky pizza is a must try . And while I liked commending the staff for their professional approach to service , the open kitchen is something to look out for. They also bake their own cakes and pastries. So don’t miss out on their desserts and coffee.
This restaurant serves very good food. I went back a few times after my first visit. Since it is also near my office, I have been ordering food to take out.
