Total mom and pop shop where you get carry out food, and they have a small section for groceries. The owners are very kind and thoughtful. They made recommendations for how to reheat and prepare the food. Its delightfully refreshing.The pork was a standout. The egg rolls were also crispy and tasty. I was not as big a fan of the eggplant/beef dish, as it was generally bland. The hopia ube, piyaya, biko, and perfect ube, were all pretty good too. I definitely liked the cassava cake.I plan to return for a deeper dive in the pork, a larger portion with rice, and will update this later.

The POM has such a sweet family vibe & the deli daily specials are great. They were new to me, but so good! Love this place as a treat to myself for lunch, after leaving my orthodontist. (Smile)

Weary Travelers from Florida Here.Upon booking our hotel nearby, we came across an unassuming philipino store and deli. To my surprise, Chef Evelyn opened her arms to us and served us wonderful food. As a matter of fact, this food was so exceptional that I almost dont deserve its glory. Theres a certain otherworldly quality to the tenderness of the beef, the crispness of the Lechon and the flavors rising from palate to cerebellum. Will I come back here next time Im in town? Absolutely. So dont go nowheres!-John

Very friendly and talented chef. Tried a little bit of everything she had on the buffet today and each dish was so satisfying, especially the pancit canton and the ground beef dish, I forgot the name of it.Went home with a few snacks and Phillipine groceries as well. They also sell portions of already made dishes in the fridge for reheat later.My first time there and will definitely be back every time Im in the area to try what she will be cooking that day as well!

What a treat! The food was absolutely amazing. This is THE place to get a takeout for authentic homemade incredible tasting filipino food and desserts. Ordered two lunch platters of pancit, double lechon, green beans, beef ribs, lumpia and a series of delicious looking desserts. Pancit with artichoke, salmon, ear mushrooms just hit all the right flavour notes. Lechon was crackling crispy on the outside and the meat was so soft. When you take a bite of the golden deep fried lumpia, you are also eating with your ears. All things ordered had a perfect balance of flavours. Chef Evelyn and her husband were so sweet and kind!!! I would undoubtedly recommend it to anyone and will definitely go back.

If youre looking for Filipino food, this is it. Full stop.But seriously, each dish is thoughtfully created and typically one of the best versions Ive had. To top it all off, the food is priced competitively to say the least. This place deserves attention.Just get here early or else certain fresh items may be sold out.

So glad we found the restaurant on this trip. All the great vibes in the restaurant are amazing. As they know we are the first time customer they let us try all the dishes in a platter. We then spent a lot of time deciding what we would like for our lunch. We ordered Lechon and beef, beef stew and veggies with coconut for lunch. Theyre all amazing.The welcoming vibe and treating everyone like family definitely makes everyone in the shop feel warm. Perfect Filipino food!

The food is great. It was way past lunch tine when I tried to order food. But the kind lady still tried to sell me food because she knew I was only visiting. Good thing she did. I liked the food very much.

FINALLY, a legit place to get authentic Filipino home cooked meals that I dont have to drive back to my parents to get! Apparently these guys have been in the Arlington area for over 40 years, so its been a really well kept secret. Unsurprisingly, they mostly have long-time customers that have been coming there for years. Im happy to add myself into this mix! If you havent had real Filipino food yet, come treat yourself here.

5 stars is too little to express how good was this food, is made by a Master chef Evelyn, she is supper humble and nice and of course her cooking is amazing very tasty, she gave me and my bf free samples of her dishes and was like my grandma food so I felt so welcome and happy to go to her Market. Her ingredients are natural and fresh and lunch is on weekends from 12-2 pm you must go
