I recall having some amazing home-cooked Filipino food a few years back w/some friends. I was impressed with the flavor combinations and variety of options. This restaurant is the closest I have found to that same style of home cooking and all at a fair price.The menu appears to have a mix of Latino, Filipino, and Puerto Rican dishes. The number of different options, most of which I had never heard of before, all sounded appetizing and made deciding my order difficult. The waitstaff was, thankfully, very helpful and provided a good rundown of the different options and what would be good for a first time customer.I started with a nice appetizer, moved on to the main dish, and then concluded with a nice dessert. The entire meal was very reasonable, considering how much I ordered and the portion sizes were just enough to be filling, but not so large as to be stuffed. Considering the price per dish, I'd say it was a well-managed menu.Overall, if you're looking for a good meal with a little kick, you have come to the right place. The food I ordered had a little kick to it, but nothing that would send you running for water. I seldom have the opportunity to say this, but my compliments to the chef of this establishment.

My husband and I visited on a Thursday, late afternoon. The restaurant is small, family owned. We got a few recommendations from our server which were spot on! We got some chips and salsa to start. Chips were warm and salsa was tasty. Next we got cheese stuffed appetizers, a specialty. They were excellent. We then shared a chicken fajitas platter. Plenty for the two of us after eating chips/appetizer. Everything was well prepared, and yummy. A nice little gem in Lorton. We will definitely be back! Thanks.

This place isn't very big, but it isn't like a hole in the wall or anything. I've been addicted to their food- go 2-3 times a week. Enchiladas- delicious, Pupusas- excellent! In particular in regards to the pupusas, their cabbage with sauce mix is not spicy- pickled, crunchy and tastes delicious- I actually like that it is not spicy like most places make it, It is the best pupusa I have had so far! Those are the only two items I have tried so far because I like them so much.. it is hard to order something new (but I will soon!). I often order carry out and take it home where I can eat like a pig. The gentleman that is always so friendly! Always says thanks in a way that you know he truly appreciates your service! It is always great when you can eat great food, but it is even better when you know you are buying from great people too!
