Filipino Restaurants near Newark, CA

“Food is delicious! We were a party of 4 with a baby and were seated right away and got our food almost immediately. The only downside is that the staff weren't very aware that we were ready for the check. Multiple employees walked passed us as our plates were untouched, so speed of service went down from there.

More frequent table touching would help and treating smaller parties with the same kind of service as the large tables would be beneficial in elevating service at this restaurant.

Restrooms were clean, staff courteous and presentable, just lacking in the areas mentioned above.

We are planning to return in a few months for a larger family birthday and hoping this issue has been solved by then.“

“I know this restaurant has been around for 20 years but it was my 1st time here. The food tastes authentic, service is great. Some people say the servings are small but they are actually just right. I had their lomi (for take out) and had their halo-halo, inihaw na bangus for a late lunch. Was worth the trip. Will definitely be back.“

“Great food. I loved the pancit, but they were out of Adobe.“

“It’s a hole in a wall. I ordered the adobo pusit, bansilog, sinigang broth and tocilog on two different occasions. None took away my breath. They were mediocre. The same as the surrounding Filipino restaurants. However, the owners’ friendliness and genuineness were apparent. Both sisters on two separate occasions, stopped at my table and engaged in a warm conversation, making me feel like a beloved family. I felt like I was being served at Nobu. I asked if they had coffee and she said she can make me one, which was not part of the menu, plus it was’t included on the final check. The black pipping hot coffee was in a paper dixie cup, but tasted better than coffee in Brazil. This personalized and attentive service ensured a positive experience, despite the food.

Overall, this hole in the wall offers a welcoming atmosphere and friendly owners. The food might not be the primary draw, but it’s a great choice if seeking a comfortable spot with excellent customer interactaction.“

“The food here is amazing. You definitely get more than your money's worth. The owner is also very kind and the cook does an amazing job. Its definitely a must try. I love the inviting atmosphere. I always get the fried chicken, the pansit and the lumpia. They have their own special recipe that can't be duplicated. If I could give a thousand stars I would. This family owned restaurant is definitely a staple in the community.“

“It’s my Birthday treat today so We traveled all the way from San Francisco to Hayward and tried their Cebu Lechon. It was Crispy and tasty. Meat was moist and tender. The best cebuchon i tried in the bay area. Highly recommended. Must try also the Pansit. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. Will come back to try all the items in their menu but the lechon is definitely the star..“

“Make sure to come and dine in at Toto’s Grill in Hayward! It definitely bring satisfaction to your cravings. When we miss filo food this place is the real deal. Can’t fault it from decors to little details, every food they serve is exquisite to our taste! Highly recommended *****“

“Excellent desserts including Halo Halo; Mamon; etc. My friends from Arizona are hoping that a store opens up in Chandler, AZ or Gilbert, AZ.“

“Excellent food and service! They do full service catering! The best!“

“People skills friendly and cleanliness“

“My experience was a mixed bag. The food was undeniably delicious, but my interaction with a male matured server/cashier left a sour taste in my mouth.

All the dishes were truly impressive. Each bite was a flavor explosion and equally scrumptious. The place knows what it's doing.

However, things took a turn for the worse when this matured server/cashier came over to my table. While I appreciate enthusiasm, this owner's brand of passion crossed into intrusive territory. He dominated the conversation. The real kicker came when he started micromanaging my dining experience, insisting I order fewer dishes and serve them on plastic containers. He said I wouldn’t be able to eat them all. I order two dishes so I can take it to go. I replied to him I could’ve eaten at McDonalds, but I want to eat on real plates and use real utensils.
Newsflash: if I'm capable of using a fork without guidance, let me enjoy my meal in peace!

While the food was great, the server/owner's overbearing demeanor put a damper on what could have been a fantastic dining experience. If Toppings Two Union City can work on striking a balance between attentive service and respecting customers' boundaries, I'd be more than happy to give them a glowing review. Until then, I'll recommend the food, but with a caveat: be prepared for a side of attitude.“

“Excellent food and drinks“

“Stanford in campus counter style cafe offering a blend of Southeast Asian flavours. One has to lower expectations given that this is within the university and caters to a diverse set of diners, so the tastes are milder vs the local Asian staples. A good representation nonetheless of Asian cuisine. The dining area is soley outdoors but relatively clean and provides a good campus spot to have ones meal and to meet up. No toilets available.

Vegetarian options: Counter style gives you options but ask servers on specific ingredients used

Parking: Stanford University parking system in effect while free parking lots are further situated with the use of free shuttles

Kid-friendliness: Ample options for kid's tastes

Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious seating outdoors but ordering has to be done by counter“
