First time trying this place. The side dishes were the highlight for me, so many options and they kept refilling them. That&#39;s a huge plus for the price. The main dish was just okay, but honestly, the sides alone made it worth it for me.

The ramen broth was the star. Rich, porky depth with a hint of soy tare. Noodles had the right chew. The chashu was tender but could&#39;ve been a bit warmer. That broth, though. Kept me going back for another sip.

The staff was so kind when they found my phone. They kept it safe and arranged a discreet Grab return.

Tried the all-you-can-eat lunch. Food was fresh, no complaints there. Staff was nice and quick to clear plates. Just a solid, casual spot for a big group.

Wow! I just want to commend the service and food when my family and I ate at the alley. We were ushered inside with care and everyone were really friendly. The food were superb and I&#39;m sure that we&#39;re going back next time. Kudos to the employees! Will surely recommend it to my friends!

Been coming here for years. The gambas al ajillo is my go-to starter, shrimp are always fresh and garlicky. Tomato soup is solid too. Prices have gone up a bit, but you can taste the quality.

Been coming here for years, and the staff always remembers my usual order. They&rsquo;re just really attentive, never hovering but always there when you need something. That kind of consistent service is what keeps me coming back.

The welcome cake for out-of-towners was a nice touch. Staff were really attentive. My main takeaway was the grilled octopus &ndash; cooked just right, tender with a good char. Portion felt a bit small for the price, but the flavor was spot on.

Waited about 20 minutes for a table during the Saturday dinner rush. Staff acknowledged the wait and kept us updated. Once seated, service was prompt and efficient. No complaints there.

Parking&#39;s a bit tight, but that&#39;s the only downside. Had their grilled tuna belly again last night, just as good as always. Service is quick and friendly, they know the regulars.

Service was friendly and attentive. They kept our drinks topped up without us asking, which was nice. The staff seemed genuinely polite, not just going through the motions.

Got the chance to try their Bib Gourmand spot. The space is so thoughtfully designed, with these warm wood tones and really comfortable seating. It just feels like a place you can settle into for a while. The food was solid, too.

The sinigang had the right balance of sour and savory. The seafood was fresh and cooked just right.

The sisig was fantastic, crispy pork belly with a perfect egg on top. The adobo had a nice depth, not too vinegary. Prices are a bit high but you&#39;re paying for the quality.

The fried croaker was pretty good. Skin was crispy, meat inside stayed soft and juicy. Flavorful on its own, didn&#39;t need any sauce. The fried rice was decent too.

The chef is super friendly, even gave me a free taste of their masala tea which was nice. I noticed they&#39;re really careful with food handling too, you can see it in the kitchen. Makes you feel good about eating here.

Stayed nearby and ended up eating here a lot. The fish and chips are the reason. The batter is light and crispy, not greasy at all. The fish inside stays moist. It&#39;s just a solid, straightforward plate.

The staff is what makes this place. They&rsquo;re genuinely warm and treat you like a friend, not just a customer. It&rsquo;s a nice vibe.

The steak and eggs were a solid portion for the price. The steak itself was tasty, but I did notice the thyme flavor was pretty strong.

Came here with a big group last Friday night. The upstairs area was perfect for us, felt private and not cramped at all. Great spot for late-night hangouts when everywhere else is packed.

The milk coffee here is the real deal. Strong, sweet, and just like the one I had in Ho Chi Minh. It was the perfect pick-me-up after a long walk. The rest of the food was good, but that coffee is the main reason I&#39;d come back.

Pho Chay was solid. Broth had depth, not just salty. Tofu and veggies fresh. Hit the spot for a lighter lunch. Would get again.

The salads are the real star here. The vegetarian options are surprisingly good, the greens are always crisp and fresh. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

The katsudon here is solid. Good portion, tastes like they make it right. Place is clean, even if it looks a bit old. Been coming for years.

The US beef gyudon was so good! The meat was super tender and just melted in your mouth. Perfect for sharing a bowl with friends after work. A bit on the pricier side, but the flavor was totally there.

The adobo was the star. Tender pork, perfectly balanced between salty soy sauce and that sharp vinegar tang. It&rsquo;s the kind of deep, savory flavor that sticks with you. The rice was just right to soak it all up.

I always bring my friends here! The vegan options are legit tasty, and the portions are huge for what you pay. We ordered the jackfruit tacos to share and still had leftovers. Perfect for a casual group hangout.
