I've had the daingsilog twice now and it's my favorite in the area. Eggs are cooked perfectly and there's so much flavor in the rice and fish. Looking forward to trying other items on the menu.

Ordered longsilog, tapsilog, and pork belly fries for pickup. The silogs were simple but enjoyable - they weren't excessively seasoned/salty nor were they bland. I'd imagine some people would find them to be slightly under seasoned but a healthy dose of their house vinegar adds plenty of zest. The pork belly fries were definitely the standout dish. They were reminiscent of Mexican style fries but at the same time completely unique. The pork belly was chopped in small enough pieces to help keep things in balance. Will definitely be a repeat customer just for those fries alone.

Wow this is right next to my barber so when we ordered food from them I was a bit skeptical since the place is low key.. you can't see in much and it's not very welcoming on the outside... now what is happening on the inside is a whole different story. The service was great everyone was very welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious! Try everything! If you are craving Filipino food this is a must try!

Came across this place on yelp and we decided to try it out & we weren't disappointed , we ordered a few things and everything was fresh and delicious. My favorite was the pork belly bun it's a MUST try! Their chicken wings are cooked to order and nice size. The guy that waited us was very patient with us and helpful ,seeing it was our first time trying Filipino food. Overall the food experience and service were great.

This review is based on the one item that I ordered, the pork belly bao, and may not be representative of the rest of the food. We were traveling on a schedule from out of town. My wife is Filipina, so I thought we'd try Filipino food this trip while near National City. My first choice was to go to Tita's Kitchenette, which had over a thousand reviews in both Yelp and Google. Seeing a line of about 25 people stretched out of the door was a good indicator that this would have been the right choice, but unfortunately, I just couldn't spare the wait time. Delos Reyes was nearby but the number of reviews was maybe 5% of Tita's, and many were older. It wasn't a good sign that this small restaurant was completely empty when we arrived. Given a smattering of recent positive reviews in Yelp and a shorter wait, I took a chance. The guy up front was appreciative that we came. I learned that this restaurant was under new ownership (maybe 4-6 months? I don't recall.). He assured us that they cook their food to order. I like going to hole-in-the-walls and getting good value. The prices were certainly reasonable. I love pork belly when done right. For the price, the slice of pork belly on the open bao was sizable, and the ingredients/flavors around it good. Unfortunately, I couldn't discern any fat, and it was one of the driest pieces of pork belly I've had anywhere. Same with the extra one that I ordered. Such a disappointment! Cooking badly chosen cuts or seemingly old cuts made to order does not make for good quality. To be fair, my wife said that two of the items that she ordered, including halo halo, was good, so I guess it depends on what one orders.

Wow... Wow... WOW!!!! If this place wasn't closed at the moment, I'd be there right now! I would say Crispy Salt n Pepper Chicken Wings are on my Mount Rushmore of food items, and while they're many restaurants that serve good Chicken Wings, I'm sorry to say to those restaurants... I won't be visiting you for awhile. Delos Reyes... meet your new customer! I would go tomorrow, but just realized you'll be closed. So... see you on Tuesday!!!

Delos Reyes has outstanding customer service. Their food prices are budget friendly/affordable. I ordered this Carnitas Bao Bun and it was delicious. I have also tried their "Silog" dishes, Beef Mami, their Halo Halo dessert too, which are delicious as well. The ambience is very chill, clean ambience. I will always come back here whenever I'm craving some Filipino foods.

I love Delos Reyes! Their customer service is outstanding; they always go above & beyond to make your experience enjoyable! :) And their food.... Omg I always get the Daingsilog cause fish is my fav but their other dishes are also bomb dot com! Make sure you try their halo halo & other desserts lol they're so delish!

Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings were bomb! The Pork Lumpia with white rice was also really good!
Finally made my way in here to order take-out, and yes, the food is as flavorful as the pics look. I spoke to the owner, and he mentioned that they've changed ownership and recommended that we try their chicken shwarma next time. I sure will, as I never hesitate to sample any recommendations from a business owner or chef.Lumpia Shanghai 8pc ($5): these were addicting. The pork was well-seasoned, and the onion and garlic flavors came through, 8/10 rating.Pork belly bao ($5): the pork belly and bun were tender, and the veggies were a nice compliment, 8.5/10.Sisilog (pork belly+egg+garlic rice [$9.99]): the rice was tasty with the right amount of oil, and they've nailed the garlic flavor. The pork was flavorful, but it had tons of fat on half of the portion. Also, it was not saucy as I am used to with sisig, but it is still decent, 7.5/10.The service was a bit slow, as they cooked to order, but it was worth the wait. I will have to dine in next time to enjoy it all freshly made. A couple of girls were destroying their salt & pepper chicken wings, so I will have to get that on the next visit.

One of the best Filipino food. They have karaoke so anyone can sing whenever they want. The fried rice is tastey and all the other food they have. Must try Filipino food in South bay.

I've tried so many silog places but this is the best. They have authentic pinoy taste and the price is affordable. There's a lot of selection and portion is big. The environment is friendly and the owners are very accommodating. Such a great place to stop by and 100 percent recommended!!!

Great service and good food with such good pricing. A good spot to bring family and friends. The environment is very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this new filipino snack bar and would definitely come back again!!!
