"I've had the pleasure of knowing Chef Lord as both a dear friend and a respected colleague in the restaurant industry. Watching him earn California's James Beard Award for Best Chef has been incredibly inspiring, but to those of us who know him, it's no surprise. His talent, humility, and dedication to elevating Filipino cuisine are unmatched. Kuya Lord is a true reflection of his heart and passion, and I couldn't be happier to see him receive the recognition he so richly deserves."

"One of the best Filipino restaurants in LA! We even ordered the lechon belly for our wedding, they drove it down to OC (with a small fee) and it was better than the catered dishes that we chose!"

"Kuya Lord sets the trend, pioneers new entrees and other restaurants seem to be influenced by his offerings like lucenachon, prawns, laing, Java rice and more. Waiting for him to offer three kinds of lumpia."
