Customers come for the sulit P100 rice-and-ulam combo, the generous servings, and that homey lutong-bahay taste—all in a clean, air-conditioned carinderia. Diners enjoy quarter chicken plates, adobong pusit, and veggie sides, with a few lucky folks even getting freebies like gulay or cansi soup. The staff consistently earn praise for being friendly and accommodating, even when you walk in close to closing, and several customers mention how they take time to explain how ordering works.

Diners enjoy the value even more because it’s in Boracay, where cheap meals can be hard to find. The place is popular and can be packed, especially with students, workers, and backpackers looking for a filling meal that doesn’t break the bank. Although many say the food is flavorful and freshly cooked, some diners mention that items are pre-cooked and reheated, and one visit had rice and Bicol Express served not hot. Another customer called out the Pork Bicol Express specifically for being too oily and missing that creamy, spicy kick. Still, most folks leave happy, citing big portions, friendly service, and a convenient Station 2 location near Azalea, Henann, and Watsons.
