Brought both the fish and shrimp plates. Wish the fish plate came with slices of bread to make a sandwich but overall the food was great

I really enjoyed this tho next time I will ask for no lemon. Also i thought pancit came w lumpia instead of spring roll which is why I ordered it because it says that on this app but this tasted good. Thanks.

The Debris Fries are Delicious. The pork and chicken had great flavor and very tender. Not typical but the pasta salad tasted different today- and we didn't care for it🙃
