You get a lot of fresh and tasty Filipino food at an affordable price!
Highly recommend if you enjoy made-to-order high end Filipino cuisine.
I love the BBQ skewers, Max's Chicken, Kare Kare, and Sisig!
Don't miss out on this hidden jem in Chula Vista - Eastlake area!!

good quality food. Just not the quantity I expected for $20 each and not same amount received when eating at the restaurant. Also don't get halohalo or drinks for delivery always spills and not sealed. you always end up with only half what they send.

Ordered Nilagang Baka (Beef Soup)- flavor is good, but serving size was literally one small soup bowl. Not worth the $18 price. I think the bowls in-store are larger. I literally thought it was rice that came with the meal...no rice comes with anything. Ive had it before via door dash, and the order was much larger. Enough as side sabao, not a meal. Max's Fried Chicken was good, regular size. Lechon Kawali Sisig (Sizzling Diced Pork Belly), and Pancit Palabok (Thick Rice Noodle) are about same size as any other Filipino restaurant, only double the price. Really enough for one person. Had to reheat leftovers to feed us properly. Pretty expensive $75+ meal to end up feeling this way. Must be better as a dine-in.

The palabok noodles is not thick as described in the menu.
The ground pork on top of it he noodles is burnt.
There are no other garnish except egg and burnt ground pork.
The food is not tasty.
There is no manager at the store to answer customers' complaints.
The food is a rip off. They charge $7.00 for small rice. I or beef Nilaga. . It has 4 small pieces of meat, big chunks of cabbage and few potatoes. It costs $19.00 plus tax.
I don't recommend this restaurant.

Beef bulalo did not have any bone marrow like pictured and could have more meat. All in all portions are small feeds 1-2 people. Meat prices are expensive.
