Filipino Restaurants near Newark, CA

“Isla Restaurant in Newark is a fantastic spot for delicious and authentic Filipino comfort food. We availed the Unli Buffet with Dungeness Crabs, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and worth the price. Every dish tasted homemade, with generous portions that truly satisfy. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and has plenty of free parking, making it perfect for both quick meals and family gatherings. If you’re craving Filipino cuisine, Isla is absolutely a must‑try.“

“We definitely recommend Timog Restaurant! Laid back atmosphere and nice ambiance. We had their squid appetizer, bangus sisig, fried lumpia, grilled bangus, kare2 volcano and the humongous todo na halo2. The servings were generous and the staff were Uber friendly. Had a wonderful time! A must visit and will be back to try out their other food. Panalo baby! Taralets punta n rin kau! 😊👍🙌👏🍽️“

“This place surprised us. We’re very picky when it comes to Filipino food because we’re always looking for that taste of home. The dishes we ordered reminded me of home-cooked meals you’d find in every Filipino household — comforting, familiar, and made with love. Every bite felt nostalgic and instantly brought me back home.

The prices might be a little higher compared to other places I usually go to, but honestly, it’s worth it for the quality, flavor, and the feeling of home the food brings.“

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

“kantutan to the max😆😆 see photo“

“Delicious food and friendly staffs“

“My favorite Filipino food spot in the Bay Area! The food here tastes like home. The food is always good whatever you order, and the prices are a great value. I always try to come here regularly.

Just know that the inside seating is very limited and there are not that many tables. So, it's sometimes hard to get seating during busy hours. However, the food is prepared fairly quickly and table turn over is fast.“

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

“The food was okay, typical kind of Hawaiian bbq. Close to it. Not as hyped up as everyone in the comments section it’s saying. It’s good don’t get me wrong but it’s not a 4 or 5 stars good place lol. I went here because of the comments.“

“tastiest Cebu lechon ever“

“Customer Service 👍👍👍👍🔥 Food 👍👍👍👍🔥 Thankful and was Blessed to eat some delicious Food. Came from Vallejo to eat at one spot and then ended up here.. Great Choice!!!“

“Went in to drop my ballot and had breakfast. A tuna sandwich with coffee. The owner was very helpful and friendly. I will definitely go back again. Lots of table to sit and a nice place to catch food before or after taking the ACE or Amtrak train ride.“

“Da Good Vibes offers a delicious fusion of Filipino, American, and Hawaiian dishes. When they replaced the old restaurant, I honestly thought I was going to miss the previous menu, especially the mochiko chicken, which was the old spot’s specialty. I remember hoping the new restaurant would have great food too, but oh my gosh, they exceeded my expectations from day one.

I’ve been a loyal fan ever since. I’ve tried most of their menu, and their roasted beef is my absolute favorite. It’s incredibly delicious, although it’s only offered for a limited time. The chicken adobo and guava-glazed pork are close runners-up, and the chili rice is just as flavorful. The staff is so warm and welcoming that I already feel like family whenever I visit. Kudos to the chef!“

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

“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.“

“Wonderful service and food, I'll be back 😋“

“First time coming to PhilHouse and first time authentic Filipino food. 27 years of visiting America and never once enjoyed the delights of Filipino food. that's why I enjoy bite after bite while looking for similarities with Indonesian food where I come from, the taste is similar. I have to admit that Filipino food is delicious, according to my taste as an Asian. I will come back to PhilHouse when I visit San Francisco. God bless PhilHouse“

“People skills friendly and cleanliness“

“Blend knows how to prioritize customers. The food is balanced and flavorful, the people there are kind and courteous. The only problem is that there needs to be more Blend out there (longer open hours and locations), which I think justifies a 5 star rating.“

“Very small Valerio’s place here in Union City. Lucky that there weren’t a lot of people here, but you’d probably get some good Filipinos goodies here. They also display other foods from the display bar if you’re up for a snack. I just wanted to get one thing there and that’s all.“

“Palabok is my fave….. so good.“

“Great atmosphere, lovely variety of people. Filipinos behind the cash registers are very helpful, informative and positive energy. I highly recommend coming just for the food court. I wasn't even aware it was a grocery store till my bf mentioned it. Lol. All the hot food and restaurants threw me off. We came from Modesto and there's no places like this there for good Filipino food. So we are very pleased to be here and get to eat all types of Filipino food. We hit up the Jollibees in here and it was great.“
