I ordered the misal pav and was completely blown away by how closely it resembled the homemade versions I remember from family gatherings. The spice level was just right—enough to tantalize but not too overwhelming. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it perfect for casual hangouts or fun meals with friends. Plus, the service was prompt and attentive, and they even offered recommendations based on my preferences. I would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)
