The food we tried was tasty! But the bar tender made our experience. (Can’t remember how to spell her name but she was a dream catcher). Energetic atmosphere and great drinks. Large food portions!!!

Excellent customer service and the best Filipino food Ive had. If youre a karaoke enthusiast - their sound system is the best in Jacksonville!

The worst place ever to visit. The owners daughter Jessica is rude and disrespectful. They dont value their customers at all. You are a liar. Jessica came on the phone disrespecting me to the point my teenage daughter stepped in. You messed up my food which she admitted and said I would receive a refund and didnt. I went off in her after listening to her constantly disrespect me and then she tried to disrespect my daughter. I dont care if you stick beside such a toxic person. I wouldnt ever want to visit that establishment again. I spent thousands of dollars in a two month period at your restaurant and I wish I never heard of you. Your bartender even admitted the night before that you messed up my food and requested I come back and get the meal replaced. Its only two things good to eat there anyway. You lie and say I complain every time. You also lie and say I call back on different days after I take my food home. I call you as soon as I get home and open my food. Ive also taken pictures of your mess ups. You all are trash. You never comp my food. Each time I come to your establishment I never pay under 60 for food for two people. I have paid over 80 dollars for two people so dont act like youre doing me a favor when you mess up my food. If I couldve rated a zero I would have. I waited for an hour and a half and spent my money.

Amazing atmosphere, delicious food (huge portions), and the staff is super friendly. They are a bit short staffed, so bring your patience and taste buds. The tofu dish was amazing and I got to enjoy it as leftovers for a while! I will definitely be back.

Nah man….this place charges way too much to be putting out this kind of food…my son ordered pick up and when we got home, this is what the food looked like…the rice wasn’t even fresh…chicken thighs and rice are inexpensive…don’t charge high prices for day/days old food…will not be returning or recommending this place to anyone…

I ordered an order of pandit and lumpia over the phone and was told is was going to be a 25 min order. When I arrived at the store my order hadnt been placed because there printer machine was down, and were apologetic and said it would be 15 min til I receive my order. I sat in there for another 30 min and still hadnt recieved my order, food is ok, but the service was terrible

Decent food with average prices for dinner. More of a drink and dance/karaoke. The food takes some time to come out but you are plenty entertained while waiting. The pancit is awesome. Easily feeds 4 people.

I cant begin to explain how amazing this little hole in the wall place is...we randomly found this place and Yumi was our server. We tried all kinds of different food which was all super yummy filled with flavor and the best part the food was fresh no cold food everything was hot which is important to me lol she informed us on different Filipino drinks and Filipino favorites I will definitely be coming back here and highly recommend this place the portions are big and its reasonably priced this is the type of restaurant u go with a group of family or friends and just have fun.

My boyfriend’s family comes here frequently. Karaoke and line dancing every time we come by! Nothing makes you feel closer to the Philippines than this restaurant surrounded by friends and family.Some years ago, my grandma (her name was Esther) passed away and we had food catered from here. Ed knew of her and helped us out with plenty of food! Very friendly people and environment. I love going here.

The restaurant is connected to the convenient store (different hours) but during the daytime, you could go into the store and they have meals already made (just pick your combo platter) Friday and Saturday nights, the restaurant turns into a dance club with karaoke until 2am (with a full bar and DJ) and you could host any events or party there too! Its definitely a fun place and the food is excellent. Ps: Call your orders in advance if you do not want to wait too long for bigger parties. They do catering too :)

Review №38

Lechon kulai, pancit Canton both good but service was slow due to understaffing. We were there 9 to 11pm, Sat night April 6th, 19. Little slow really, a few karoke singers, mostly Kano-kana, line dancing was a big hit perhaps cuz of the single babae mga. Worth the trip if your not too far away but go late maybe 10pm to eat then dance, I was probably the oldest there but enjoyed it.. Ingat ka.

I had a great experience! Sheilay(my server) made me feel at home. The food was great! Just know that when you walk in just take a sit where ever you feel comfortable.

I will share my experience and let you be the judge. We walked into the restaurant and nobody greeted us at the door. In fact it was completely empty, save what looked like a few musical instruments setup for a band. After approximately 10 minutes of standing around awkwardly a member of our party went searching for help. A few members of the kitchen staff stood around in back looking confused and we were finally shown a table. We sat down, and after another 10 minutes a server came by and asked us what we would like to drink. Water for the table seemed simple enough, but apparently this restaurant was fresh out. At the same time another party entered the restaurant, was promptly seated, and within 5 minutes their drink order was not only taken, but filled even before our own! Naturally we sent a member of our party out again for service after which we were provided water, sans apology of course. Our food arrived a day later, or what seemed like a day. We had 4 very small children in our party who we had to keep entertained during this extended waiting period. Naturally they brought the adult portions first and proceeded to place the hottest plates directly in front of the smallest children. Luckily no one was burned. Finally they bring out the scalding hot spaghetti on glass plates complete with a giant serving fork. As for the food, since the owners of the establishment dont seem to value their customers or their time, I will decline to comment. If you have half a day to spare, feel free to try it yourself.

Review №56

I wanted to love this so much because it is rare to find a Filipino eatery... However, they were out of what I originally want to order (okay, it happens when certain quantities of delicious food are made, I get it.) So after QUITE awhile after ordering I was informed of this and picked something else. My drink ran out and I didnt see our server anywhere for awhile. Then when our food arrived, the dish was room temp and, no, its supposed to be hot... After another long period of time we got to relay this to server and she did bring out a hot plate of food relatively soon and explained how she brought out the wrong plate before (???)Please, please, please attend to your customers and Im sure you guys would have a plethora of rave reviews. I need pork adobo in my life but I get frustrated when I feel like my presence is unwelcomed.

Review №57

I eat here a lot, I mean a lot!! I love the food, the lunch buffet they serve is always good. And the owner Eddie care about his company and his clients. If you don;t like the food then you dont know anything about original Filipino cooking.

This is one of the weirdest and coolest restaurants Ive ever visited. Its Philippine food, which is not easy to find in my area. Theres a deejay, and after a certain time, they start playing j pop, k pop, etc. Theres a crowd of regulars who dress appropriately and dance. Its a nice scene.

Review №61

The food here is a hidden gem! So fresh so home cooked. When food is that good, I dont mind waiting a little extra. The wait wasnt bad though. The server wasnt the best server ever, but she was friendly and did nothing wrong. People leaving this place bad reviews over petty things are doing everyone else who values good food a disservice. Five stars all the way. My new favorite place. Get the lumpia. The beef maharlika was also phenomenal. Like soul food from the Philippines.

Review №62

Maharlika is our new favorite spot! I loved the fact that I could go somewhere on a Saturday night and have a great time with my teenagers! We sang kareoke until 2 am and the crowd had me feeling like Beyonce! There was so much love!! Line dancing was amazing and it really was a family environment!! But there were still drinks available for the adults. Havent had this much fun in years!

I tried their food for the first time at the Riverside Arts Market on 10/29/2016. It was beyond delicious. Take it from a chunky person because we know good, quality food. I wrote down their information and found their page immediately after I got home. I will be going to the restaurant tomorrow and its a 30 minute drive from where I live.

Review №68

I gave a 3 to average my two separate experiences. 4 stars for their lunch line item offerings, and 2 stars for their sit down dinner offering.For lunch, this was a good deal. They had the basic line item offerings. Good price point, yummy, and quick. One downfall was that lumpia was separate and on the expensive side.For dinner, this was not a good experience. Went here for dinner w my family who was visiting from out of town. There were ten of us and we were the only ones there. We ordered a good amount of food but it took forever and the portions were on the smaller side. Our meal cost over 200 dollars and my mom commented that it probably would have cost 50 bucks for that in San Diego.Will come back for lunch but never again for dinner.

Honestly the food here is really good. The service here is garbage though. Ive had decent service at the bar later in the evening but any other time...there is nobody helping anyone hardly. I watched workers mess up payments and along with many others, I was waiting for anyone to help with a drink or food for a ridiculous amount of time. Its amateur hour. The 2 stars is just because the food is good. Otherwise, probably not coming here again.

The food is great. They could use more servers during the weekend, especially when there are group parties going on. We were told there were only 2 servers that night and from what I heard there were 3 big birthday parties at the same time. We were told to be patient, which was fine, but we ordered at 730 pm and did not receive our food until about two hours later--and at that time, what I ordered was not even complete. Our drinks were in cans ( not sure if we needed to request glasses with ice ) and the music could be better to appease just more than the usual line dance crowd. Line dance music I can understand, but mix it up with Top 40, 80s, club, etc. could have more people on the dance floor. I havent eaten there during the day, but hopefully the service will be much better.

It was just like what the majority of the commented said - SERVICE IS HORRIBLE! After an hour and a half, they told us one their cooks left. There was a large party there too. It would have been nice to let us know at the time we arrived they were short staff, we would have decided to go somewhere else. This place needs to read all these comments and do something about their service. Sorry great food does not make up the difference. THE PROBLEM IS FIXABLE IF THEY CARE ENOUGH TO DO SO.

Authentic Philipino food, decor and feel. Dont expect to be greeted and seated, just relax and help yourself and enjoy great food and atmosphere. They have a bar and karaoke if thats what you into. A lot of space to accommodate big parties. Lumpias are great, plates can accommodate 3-4 people easily.

I was here on Wednesday night and it was a bit of a wait on the server (10 mins or so) at the beginning but the food was worth the wait. The portions are pretty big (they serve in a family size), so don’t worry too much about the price. I would definitely recommend to a friend or if you just want break from the norm.

The slowest service in history! We had my brothers birthday dinner there, reserved it and they triple booked the restaurant along with a big singing competition finals. It qas an unorganized chaotic mess. The food was delicious, at least what we were able to try because they cut to a VERY limited menu without letting us know. We were extremely disappointed.
