They are now inside the Urban Hawker. The actual restaurant shown in google map with a store front photo moved to a different location. The pork adobo was delicious and very big portion for me. It can easily be shared by 2 people so you can try something else. In addition to the vegan pancit, the rambutan salad is also vegan. Only after we finished the meal and talked to the cashier saying it'd be nice if they had somethings like tofu for protein for the vegan dish that he said they have and can
At the old 8th ave location right before the move, had a great kamayan meal. Space was a bit cramped for the 8 of us. The dishes were shared in pairs without some of the larger format items. Grolled fish, shrimp, bbq pork and more on top a heaping bed of rice and bamana leaves. Need to try the menu at the larger new location.
Really amazing classic Filipino food! Ordered the crispy pata and their veggie vegan pancit. Both were super flavorful and the pata was cooked perfectly. Service is fast casual as they're inside Urban Hawker. They paired both with a hot chili sauce. Would definitely recommend especially in comparison to all the touristy restaurants in the area.
