This place exceeded our expectations! The Bulalo Pares was sooooo tasty, & the Loco gang sauce 🤤🤤. Chimichurri sauce on-top of the balut was a really good pairing.

It was our first time having Filipino food & what an amazing experience! We had the #7 & #8 & while both delicious, #7 was a flavour I've never had before & absolutely loved it. The egg yolk mixed with the sauce was 10/10! & the service was even better than the food, which is saying a lot! The cashier helped us by explaining everything on the menu & was so friendly! Will definitely be back again :)

The best bulalo house in Montreal! This restaurant serves such comforting food, reminds me of my Filipino parents' cooking. My all time favourite dishes are: Bulalo Steak, Loco-Gang, & their Corned Beef Silog (made in house 😉). Also, the broth is to die for!! Not only is it super tasty & comforting, but it's good for the skin 😋 Lastly, the staff is super friendly & the ambiance is just so chill & nice. A solid 10/10
