Filipino Restaurants near Buena Park, CA

“Our visit to this Filipino restaurant was unforgettable! The service was superb, with staff members who were not only professional but also had a real passion for Filipino food. The bulalo was rich and comforting, with tender beef that melted in your mouth. The bicol express was just spicy enough, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. As for the ambiance, it had a beautiful fusion of rustic and contemporary Filipino styles, making it feel like home while still offering something unique. Definitely worth every penny for the fantastic food and excellent service!“

“Omg!!! So delish!!! The pork adobo is good😋“

“yummy 🤤 yummy 🤤 yummy 🤤 yummy“

“I ordered crispy pata the other day and when I got home the crispy pata was over fried that even the bone is burned. Very overcooked so it is very disappointing!“

“I really enjoyed the delicious Filipino comfort food. The servings are generous and the value is amazing. I ordered the beef mechado and another side. I'm visiting from out of town and I have been here three times already because the food is just very very tasty!!“

“foods are amazing“

“I didn't have high expectations.

We ordered pancit canton, bicol express, bistek tagalog, chop suey, sinigang and lechon kawali.

They brought back childhood memories since the taste is spot on like my grandma and greatgrandma used to cook.

Big and tasty servings.

Honestly and highly recommended.“

“Great little Filipino Food spot!! Great delicious filipino food! I love their Bibinka , Dinuguan and their Pancit Malabon!! During the summer I always order their Maiz Con Hielo. Staff here is friendly and attentive. I’m glad we have this place in Cerritos. My little go to when I’m craving Filipino food!!“

“Definitely come try the unique Filipino cuisine. I was mind blown by the variety and flavor. The staff is very friendly and will explain it all.

I will be sharing this experience and coming back with friends.

You can walk in and get a lunch combo plate and also buy anything by the container to go.“

“Wow! I am speechless. I was treated like family and got to try some fish soup!!! The food is... AMAZING! Straight up fire. I am latino but had worked at seafood city in Irvine when it first opened back in 2015. A trip down memory lane. I had cici with rice and a side of lechon. Please do yourself a favor, GO TRY THE FOOD!!! Thank you for hospitality. Can't wait to go back soon and bring my brother with me!We finna do some damage! ???????“

“Great food but does not have a dress code. Should not accept customers wearing undershirt. It’s gross n tacky. It diminishes the restaurant’s ambiance.“

“Fresh food daily. No recycled food.“

“i eat here everytime i get a chance. I just gorged on flan , 3 or 4 pork dishes and longonisa. That was before i got to the delicious lumpia! I come for the lumpia and end up trying other dishes every time. My wife and i recommend dishes to people coming in that may not know what each item is on the menu and the staff is really helpful. Bottom line, all the food is good! You can literally just point at the menu at random, get a dish, and it is going to be fantastic.“

“Been coming here forever. Great Filipino lechon chicken, chicharon and yummy rice dishes like sisig. Tasty food and friendly service.

Parking: They have few stalls, majority are dominated by other tenants. Can be tricky during busy times.“

“We went to the Anaheim branch for food tasting. All the food served were delicious. If you want to experience a fusion of traditional and modern Filipino cuisine, visit this place.“

“I ordered lumpia for superbowl. My family devoured it!! We went back a few times and got dinners including the pork adobo and rice. We have and also the skewers of chicken and also pork. Everything is always delicious!!! Friendly people :) Going back to get more lumpia next week for a party.“

“Still one of the best values for Filipino food if you're coming from the beach areas of The OC. I discovered this place a long time ago while looking for a closer alternative to the famous Magic Wok (now Crispy House) crispy pata. At the time Sawali Grill's version was the closest.There are other items offered at this place which I favored, lechon kawali, beef kaldereta, bicol express, pork sisig, grilled liempo etc. The crispy pata is what draws me in all the time. The skin is crisp and the meat, very tender. As always, I order it "no chop." That keeps it warm on the way back home. And I always ask for vinegar instead of the standard liver sauce they always provide.Lately though I noticed a difference in the quality of the crispy pata. The skin is sometimes burnt in some areas. Besides that little variance, the taste is the same. Crispy skin as always and still a cost effective and closer alternative than driving all the way to Norwalk.Oh, and yes .. they are closed on Mondays as customary to most Filipino restaurants and yes, there is a surcharge for using a credit card for payment, customary cultural habit also!

Parking: There are parking spaces right in front of the restaurant. This place is located in a strip mall so there is a huge parking lot if none of the spaces in front are available.“

“So far, they have the best tasting Filipino food in Socal. I don’t mind driving 10 miles just to buy from them. They’ve got big and generous portions and our To-Go order was carefully packed, too. Will definitely go back again and spread the word.“

“From the first moment you enter this restaurant the stuff gives you an enjoyable feeling. Very courteous stuff, it is a friendly place to to go out with buddies or with your date. delightful food, skillful chef de cuisine, modest pay and attentive service. Highly recommended.“

“WALANG KASING SARAPPPPPPP!!!! superrr bait pa ni tatay johnny������� highly recommended ang mga pagkain pinoy.hindi lang kambing ang mga ulam dito at ang pinaka approved sa akin eh hindi oily..“

“Food is great. Friendly service.“

“I stopped here and ordered the Pan de ube, Chicken tinola soup, Ginataang Bilo Bilo, Apritada, Steamed Rice, and Pork adobo. The tinola was a little spicy. Had a real kick to it. The apritada was good and tender - a bit salty but still good with the carrots and potatoes. The Ginataang was such a nice, little dessert!“

“Best Filipino food ever! Love the ambience, excellent service, and they have live entertainment and karaoke night!“

“wow what a gem in anaheim!
The Best Filipino foods in the heart of this business Plaza.

Freshly prepared BBQ combos and lots of items to choose from.It feels like home (Manila philippines) where you smell the aroma that's been prepared in the kitchen.

They have the Best Pork BBQ and Lumpiang shanghai,it is a must have and also try to grab a bite of their bibingkinitan it is like bibingka and pancake in one!

staff are so friendly and welcoming! We will be back for more❤️“

“Our first time to try this place ( Tuesday 1130 a.m.). First negative point was the narrow tight parking spots of the shopping center. You'd easily get a scratch/dent on your car . The next point .. the food prices are pricey ! ( about $ 6 to $7 bucks higher than other comparable eateries). However, to be fair, once we started eating our lomi n fresh lumpia.. it was a big wow.. it's a real sarap n the servings are huge. So it's still ok to eat here unless you don't mind the tight, narrow parking spots. Don't bring your Teslas, Mercedes n other elegant cars you may have esp on buffet days. The restroom doors by the way are supposed to be self closing n not prop opened per health regulations.“

“Great food and a lot of it. Good waitress too.“

“Great bakeshop to be at service since 1952... d' best!“

“Pakbet Crispy pata Bihon Lecheo kawali & more 😋“
