Home cooked food at its best! Tamarind soup with milkfish bellies was delicious, perfect on the cold day we were there. The fried spring roll with banana and ube is a must.

Got catering on set, LITERALLY SO BLESSED it tastes incredible and so filling after working up a sweat. The curry and lumpia especially are my favorites, especially dipping the lumpia in sweet and sour sauce.

Very good Pilipino food! Sinigang Bangus is delicious and the vegetarian sisig is brilliant. I don’t love tofu but the sisig vegetarian is now my favorite! The girls that work the counter are very good! Pancit bihon and pakbit are very yummy too! Thank you Nova’s Grill!

This was my first time there and I welcomed with smiling, friendly faces! I got an order of their pork lumpia(they can make it w/shrimp/crab/pork but it is a special order item). The lumping is good and tasty and about 3.5" to 4" long. They also gave me a small portion of their Sisig (a specialty of their's) to try. It is not what I would have ordered (I'm a very picky eater), but it is good and I would order it again! The owner is in the back cooking! Check them out! ;)

The most delicous Filipino food. This is my favorite spot in Southern California for Filipino food. The prices are reasonable and the portions are big!

Hands down the best Filipino food in the Covina area. Their sisig is the best. The serving is big, what a great deal.

Good Filipino food. We need to wait for one hour for the food to get ready but it's worth the wait. This is a CASH only restaurant so make sure you have cash with you before ordering. They should pay attention to orders without shrimp and still give you with shrimp.

We came with group of friends on a Saturday afternoon , there are 7 of us. We were initially seated outside as the staff thought we prefer outside, no way! with this hot weather, We will not endure it. Anyways, all the food that we ordered are soo good. We ordered for Crispy pata, chop suey, pancit, baked milk fish,rice. We really enjoyed everything. The staff are friendly and helpful. The service is a lityle bit slow though..Restroom is clean and plenty of parking in this plaza.We would definitely come back here.
