My family and I have been loyal customers for years, always ordering pick-up and choosing their party trays for every occasion. But lately, the service has been frustrating, especially when ordering trays over the phone. They quote one price, then charge nearly $20 more at pickup. When questioned, they claim the person who took the order made a mistake. If that’s true, why not call to clarify? They had no problem reaching out to upsell me to a larger tray so clearly, they know how to contact me.
I finally asked to speak with the manager, only to be told she had already left. What they didn’t realize is that I understand Tagalog—I heard one tell their co-worker she was hiding in the back, leaving her staff to handle the fallout from her kuriput tendencies.
At this point, I don’t mind driving a few extra miles to Tita’s Kitchenette in National City. If you’ve had a similar experience, I highly recommend venturing out elsewhere!

Tried this food truck several times since our neighborhood often books them, hoping to support local business. Unfortunately, the food consistently disappoints — every dish is excessively salty, with heavy, unnecessary sauces that overwhelm the flavor. The meat quality is quite low, and the prices are unusually high for what you get. From both a health and value standpoint, it’s not a good choice. I’d recommend exploring other options before spending your money here.

I ordered a pork lumpia tray and vegetable spring roll tray to go for a potluck. They had it ready pretty quick, and the pricing for the pork lumpia really reasonable compared to a lot of places. Food was tasty and my colleagues enjoyed it. Would definitely highly recommend (at least for catering).
This place is great. It's never crowded. You can eat your food in peace. The food is delicious and the prices are decent.

This place is a great place to get Quick Service Filipino food.
This place is similar in style to Tita‘s kitchenette. However, I would argue That the quality of food I have here is a lot higher. Just keep in mind that you may want to get here early. They tend to run out of food Towards their closing times say an hour or so before closing.
highly recommend to go here as well simply because the price of their food is hard to beat. their two item combo with rice can easily feed two people no problem and it would only cost you $15.
like their food in my opinion was so good. I forgot to take a picture of it just chowed down.

Placed an order for a small whole lechon pig a week in advance and was required to pay in full up front. Got a call 3 days before the pickup date only to be told that they messed up and overbooked. This was for a special occasion and so unprofessional. I would never order from here again.

I drizzled Ginataan (Tombo Tombo/Bilo Bilo) over a few scoops of Real Vanilla Ice Cream, sitting on a bed of sliced bananas. Yummy! For lunch, we had half fried Bangus, Pinakbet, Chicken Apritada, Mungo, pancit and steamed rice.
