Paragraphs:
Customers come for the lechon—crispy skin, juicy meat, and a solid $15 combo with rice and a pop—plus generous portions that hit the spot without breaking the bank in Niagara Falls. Diners enjoy the warm welcome, with staff and even fellow patrons offering dish suggestions, samples, and the occasional free pandesal. The vibe is friendly and easygoing, and the team is quick on their feet. Folks also appreciate seeing the food cooked in an open kitchen, which gives some added peace of mind. It’s mainly a takeout spot, with just a couple of outdoor tables for small groups.

Taste-wise, many diners say the flavors feel just like home—especially the lechon and sisig, which reminded one Kapampangan of hometown cooking. Others rave about the pork barbecue, dinakdakan, pancit, kinilaw, and shrimp okoy, saying almost everything they tried was on point. Although, some customers mention the flavors could be more distinctly Filipino to their palate, showing that expectations vary.

There’s one notable caveat: a customer called out cleanliness issues—entry touchpoints, fridge, floors, and staff appearance—while others specifically noted the visible kitchen looked clean, so experiences differ. Overall, diners enjoy the generous portions, friendly hospitality, and dependable lechon, although a few folks mention minor inconsistencies and the limited seating, making it best for grab-and-go.
