We ordered the chicken adobo, beef steak and onion, chicken empanada, another beef or maybe goat that kinda tasted like birria, and sausage. FLAVOR! It was a little oily but besides that it tasted wonderful! The garlic rice is really good too and customer service was amazing!

Appears to be a resterraunt we would be willing to try. However the regressive use of polystyrene & non compostable takeout containors is unacceptable and a no go.

My first time here Workers here are lazy I walk in asked for Halo Halo and she asked me to get it inside this glass freezer I thought that was odd since she works there I felt that she should get it since I'm buying it from the restaurant the location was empty they barely any customers but my first impression I realized customers service is better at Goldilocks I'd rather drive from long beach to cerritos just to get better customers service and better Halo halo I will never come back here even if it's close to home

Kainan Sa Kanto on Del Amo Blvd. in Lakewood is a hidden gem serving up delicious Filipino fare that will remind you of your Lola's or Ate's cooking.

The star of the show here is definitely the lechon. The crispy skin gives way to perfectly tender meat, making it an absolute must-try. Every bite is a flavor explosion!

They have a great selection of other dishes too. The pancit was another favorite, with a savory and satisfying taste. The chicken adobo was classically delicious, and the bbq skewers offered a delightful sweet and salty balance.

For the more adventurous eaters, I recommend trying the cow tripe with peanut sauce kari kari. It was surprisingly tasty and well-prepared.

No Filipino meal is complete without dessert, and Kainan Sa Kanto doesn't disappoint. Their turon, those amazing sweet egg rolls filled with plantains, are simply divine. And to cool off after a satisfying meal, their halo halo is the perfect way to end your visit.

Overall, Kainan Sa Kanto is a fantastic restaurant that offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere along with incredible homemade Filipino food. I highly recommend checking it out!

A solid Filipino restaurant with a great selection of authentic Philippine dishes that’s ready to serve.

I ordered their fried pork, beef tocino, fried bangus, adobo pork, bbq chicken skewers & bistek. Overall it was a good lunch especially with the garlic rice. Solid customer service & a spot to visit for Filipino food.

I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items.

Very good food. Friendly service. If you're looking for pan de sal, this is the best place to buy them.

Got takeout for a group order twice over the holiday break. This place is located on an intersection mini mall lot. My Filipino friends and family approve of the food, it’s solid priced and home style tasting. Out of all the Filipino places in SoCal I go to, this is on the short list.

Well, I’m not sure why she gave me burnt turon. It tastes burnt and was overcooked! Burned sugar is not pleasant tasting at all. The ones on top looked way better, so she purposefully gave me a burned one from the bottom of the pile. ? My bread was burned and over cooked too. ?‍♀️

I ordered multiple dishes to try and all of them were delicious! I'm not familiar with Filipino food at all so the staff was helpful in explaining what the dishes were and helping me choose!

Don't be scared off by the location in the corner spot of a small strip mall and unassuming interior.Selection of canned goods, frozen goods and desserts, variety of Filipino desserts. Also large selection of their prepared foods.I had tocino and 2 large sticks of pork bbqMy Filipina wife had Bangus and young jack fruit prepared with coconut milk.We have fridge in our hotel room so we also got a small container of squash and green bean veggie mix. We also got a bag of Pan de Coco (bun with chocolate inside).All food we tried was so Lami/Masarap.We have been touring Canada and USA for 5+ weeks and were both missing Filipino food. KAINAN SA KANTO is a must try if you are living or visiting the Long Beach California area.While we were there 3 separate Filipina locals came and also got large orders - that is a good sign.The man who took our order was so friendly and he had 3 hard working people cooking behind him. He wished us a good rest of our holiday and hoped we would return next time in LA/Long Beach - we will for sure.Highly recommend this food and the portions are so big we each took out half of our order. The biggest problem is so many tasty choices to pick from!!

Parking: Located in the corner of a strip mall.

Been going here for years for their spring rolls. We order them for any party/potluck we go to & they're always a hit! We get 50 or 100 w/their sweet/sour sauce and theres never any leftovers. Order ahead by phone or stop in to order in advance.
