Gabriel C.Gabriel Chung: Delicious authentic filipano food. the chicken adobo, flan, cassava cake are wow!

Minda A.Minda A: It's all about the halo-halo and bistec. Reminds me of cafes in Ayala Alabang, Manila. Share authentic Filipino (vs fusion) with friends here if you don't have patience for Queens, like me.

VernaVerna: Great authentic food but service can be very inconsistent - slow, wrong orders, forgotten orders, etc. Try to go at odd times when there aren't too many people.

The Corcoran GroupThe Corcoran Group: Crispy and fresh, this thin-crust pizza doesn’t leave you feeling stuffed and greasy. Go when the weather is right because seating outside is much more enjoyable.

CompassCompass: This place is packed for weekend brunch for good reason. Fluffy omelettes and farm-to-table produce keep locals coming back for intimate meals in the rustic brownstone.

ripovripov: Pretty good food if you can maintain your appetite with the really nauseating acoustic adult contemporary playing. Personally, it was a struggle.

Adam S.Adam Silver: Crowded on the weekends with rich kids whose parents just bought them a bland one-bedroom in Murray Hill and newlyweds who met at HBS. But the eggs are fantastic.
