Caviten̈a Bistro hit the spot... The pork adobo was on point. I love their lumpia shanghai here. If you have room for dessert, don't forget to order their Halo Halo. What makes this place special is not the food, but the personable experience. It's family owned and had a great conversation with Butz. This place is happening during evenings with music and dance.

I. Love. This. Place !!!!
Their Tapsilog is to die for! The staff is always so friendly and so kind! Reppin the true filipino vibes over here for sure and they got karaoke and party like it's 1999 !!! If you want true authentic filipino food and the atmosphere, def come to Cavetina....The very first Filipino restaurant in Lomita ! Woop woop !!!!!

We are visiting from TX and had to eat some filipino food since there's not so many locations where we live and my hubby is filipino. The food came out fast and the service was great. We had the lunch special. They give you a pretty big portion. The chicken adobo and garlic fried rice was super good. They fried the pompano perfectly. The skin was crispy and the meat soft. We will definitely come again on our next vacation.
