friendly staff, the prices are reasonable. i ordered halo2x special and cheesecake slice; theyre just ok. the next day, ordered breaded chicken (half) and vegetable fried rice are good for 2. again, theyre just ok. as well as halo2x even for the 2nd time, still just ok.












Their food is tasty. I give it 4 stars because of its location. Located in a narrow place and limited seats only. Hopefully they can move to some better place like inside malls or to a wider space.
Things for improvement:
- suggest adding some "merienda in the menu like banana cue/ camote cue, buchi, siopao, etc. that would compliment their "Halo-Halo".
- the "bangus daing"- better to have 2 flavor or option; 1.) Just regular 2.) Marinated, depending on the customer's preference.
Generally, food quality, service and price are very good.
Calamari is perfectly cooked. I liked it so much! 5/5
Kare kare, lomi, Also great 👍-5/5
Siomai- 3/5
Halo-Halo - 4/5 (due to inconsistency in ingredients)

We frequent here for their halo halo. The place has very little seating space. Too small than usual restaurant but has alot of customers all the time. Halo halo tastes good and understandably enough due to the taste of fruits in dubai. Not the best halo halo but better than most halo halo in dubai from other resto. We also tasted their chicken sisig. It's good. But I'm not a fan of waiting on long qeues or waiting in the heat from lack of seats. It would still be our go to place for halo halo though





The restaurant itself is tiny it gets crowded easily so it is not comfortable to eat at all.
It is too hot inside the place not sure if not enough air condition. So we end up turning on the fan cause it is burning hot in the place.
There is a lot of flies all over the place so hopefully they can do something about it in the future. You will see on the picture I will post.
Ordered Sinigang na bangus it is pretty good and soup is sour which I love!
Disappointed on seafood Bicol express - sauce is too think and the food color isn’t really appetizing. It doesn’t taste authentic at all! Expecting it to be a little spicy too🫤
The Halo halo is good but I wouldnt say it is the best in Dubai.

Except for the authentic halo halo in the Philippines, this is the best halo halo I've ever tasted in Dubai. I give it a 5 star rating and recommend that they expand their space because they are starting to get a lot of attention. However, overall, the best halo halo recommendations can be made.





I am a member of Food Trip UAE facebook group. I checked the reviews before going here. I was so hyped to try their food, specially their famous Halo-Halo. Unfortunately, my experience is far from what I expected.
We ordered Lumpiang Sariwa, Kare Kare, Mais con Yelo, and Halo-Halo.
Lumpiang Sariwa - the vegetables are so big which is not the usual julienne cut for this dish. They don’t have bamboo shoots too, which is again, something that is usual in the dish. Their peanut sauce is okay.
Kare Kare - Tasted like they just reheated it in the microwave. The meat is tough, and the serving is small for the price (35 AED). The sauce is a little bland for my taste, and the bagoong doesn’t help a lot because it’s salty.
Mais con Yelo - It taste okay and there’s a right amount of corn, but I didn’t like the slushie texture of the ice. I prefer the usual shaved ice that still has some crunch to it. I suggest that you grind some corn bits to add a little bit of texture to it.
And last but not least, their famous Halo-Halo - I’m sorry, but no; I don’t think this is the best one in Dubai. Kind of worth the price-point, considering they are generous with the ingredients (although I personally only liked the sweet banana). But it melted right away because the mixture is like the one in mais con yelo (slushie type), and in the end it looked like I’m drinking melted ice cream.
The place is small, so a lot of people would be waiting outside on the street. Their tables are wobbling too, so be careful when eating something with hot soup.
On the bright side, their service crew are fast. They are checking tables from time to time, and clear the plates once done.
I know that they’ll still improve over time, and we will still go back and try the other mains. I hope I won’t be disappointed when I come back the second time.

🍽 Typical Filipino carinderia food - felt more nostalgic! The chicken tastes like Max’s as per my Hoobee. Sago’t gulaman is only AED 5 😳
🏷 Super affordable - spent about AED 100 for 2 people plus we bought a slice of Cheesecake (not in the photo)
📍Location is hidden behind Union metro and the place is small with only 4-5 tables. They take the last order at 9:30PM but you can stay until 10PM-11PM depending on the day.
