Filipino Restaurants in National City, CA

“Always my favorite stop every time I’m in SD!!

Best Filipino bbq ever! Huge portions with perfectly sweet and savory skewers in carmelized heaven. Chicken is amazing they also have pork which I don’t eat (I know Filipino sacrilege... but I’m allergic) but I know it’s good too plus the lechon my friend said was amazing. Great homemade food!“

“Love the food and service was great. We'll be back.“

“If you like to chill and do a little karaoke. This is the place. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. From 6pm to 9pm. Bring your family and friends, show your talent. Oh by the way, try their Sisig Fries you won't get disappointed.“

“We were in SD for the week and heard good things about Ching's so we had to give them a try.

We tried their Baboy, Mongo, Ube, and Buko Pandan flavors. We warmed it up when we flew back home and enjoyed the flaky crust. My favorite was the ube flavor.

Other reviews have commented on poor service, but I didn't have any concerns during my visit. Would return for more pasalubong!“

“Let me tell you, food is so good that I forgot to take photos 😩😂 I just took one photo of the skewers because it looked so good!!!

Definitely recommend trying the lumpia!

The place is a little hot so I recommend taking some food to go!“

“Fiesta Pinoy catering delivered top-notch service for our event last February 7,2026

Our guests not only enjoyed their food, but appreciated the quick and hospitable service throughout the night. I would recommend them to anyone seeking a reliable catering company with delicious food options.Thank you so much Clarisse🙂“

“The best place to eat, recommend it by me.“

“If you're looking for a quick bite and have to satisfy a Filipino food craving this is good spot. Large selection of Filipino dishes including the ever popular lumpia and chicken adobo. All you do is decide how many different dishes and they'll generously fill up your containers to go.

The food counter is nestled in the Island Pacific Market that carries all the ingredients for the dishes being served. Has shelves and shelves of snacks, drinks, produce, frozen goods and dry goods.“

“Very good streets food and love it’s.“

“we're lucky to find this place to cater late night snacks for our wedding reception. we ordered trays of their pork and veggie lumpia and turon. they were all a hit and tasted great that there was no leftover. there's still turon left but it's probably because everyone was full from our cake. the owner/server are very kind and accommodating to deliver to our venue even if late night. we just need to pay a bit extra which we understand since it's all the way to la jolla. overall satisfied and great memory for us!“

“We ordered lechon and it was so good! The skin was crispy and sesoned very well! Their home made sarsa was the best! 💕 we will be ordering again soon!“

“What a hidden gem! I felt so welcomed like I was having lunch at Grandma’s house and I was family. The service is so friendly and kind. The food was amazing as well. One of the best Filipino breakfast spots and pan de sal bread! They don’t just sell cakes and desserts. In the back corner is hot to go food and lumpia. Come check out this hidden San Diego Filipino food gem and support a wonderful small family business“

“Delicious Filipino grilled favorites on demand!

My dad loves coming here because when we go shopping for ingredients of his native food, we can come get prepared delicious meals on hand.

Cafeteria style, you can choose from grilled fish, meats, vegetable and meat dishes, noodles, desserts and more!

My recommendation

Grilled pompano fish
Laing (taro leaves in coconut milk)
Lechon kawali (crispy pork)“

“It’s been good 6-7 year since the last time we dine-in at Goldilocks.

We decided to have our brunch after in laws morning appointment. Got lucky for a parking knowing it’s hard to get one on a weekend close to the restaurant. Attentive staff from start to finish. It was 930AM but decided not to order breakfast items instead ordered our regular UBER orders.

Ordered the following:

Crispy Pata - it’s a must for us! Crispy skin and juicy pata meat. Ordered Crispy Pata here five times last year through UBER since we just love how juicy and crispy it is.

Pansit Canton - well seasoned and great amount of toppings i.e veggies and meat. Noodles not overcooked.

Fresh Lumpia - not pictured. Fresh veggies wrapped in crepe with sweet savory peanut sauce completes the dish.

Highly recommend if you’re craving for some Filipino dishes.“

“Can I give 10 stars instead of 5? Please bring this store to NYC, last time we had a store was in NJ, but closed about 4 years ago. Worth the 20-25 min Uber/Lyft one way to/from our hotel or SDCC. I tagged with me my fellow Bulgarian-American colleague and tried it: she became more of a fan than I am. We had beef wanton mami, chowfan w/ siomai, beef brocolli and honey walnut shrimp toppings, taho (we prefer classic than ube more), and jelly drink (iced gulaman drink sans the sago). Chili sauce to mix is a must have! We were here for a 4 days conference, and ordered from here 3x. Our final order was an Ubereats delivery to hotel (+0.49 long distance surcharge) just to eat in the plane as our meal back from SAN to JFK. We'd eat these over inflight (boring) fruit platter, snacks, and/or sandwich anyday.“
