  • Authentic Filipino Specialties & Fusion Twists

    The kitchen serves authentic homestyle specialties alongside cafe fare, highlighted by perfectly balanced crispy pata and Filipino noodle options cooked with traditional flavors.

    My pea & mint risotto deliciously velvety, butter chicken was superb, the duck with pear and the lamb shank also met with great approval.

    We ducked across the road from the Waikiki dog park and were so happy there was a dog friendly space out the front. The dog we were caring for loved his puppacinno
