Filipino Restaurants near San Bruno, CA

“Staff was attentive and helpful and the items we ordered were all delicious“

“Please open a location in Southern California!

Filipino is my comfort food and this was comfort to the max. I dined here with family and we enjoyed the food and venue. Our servers were very attentive and refilled our water and rice without our asking. I ordered the kari kari with crispy pork belly and it was an experience nearly identical to that of the moment the Ratatouille food critic had when he bit into the bite of Remy's ratatouille dish.

The only bit of constructive feedback I had was that I wish the tables had lazy susans. My family and I ordered several different dishes and it was a workout passing serving dishes around and/or reaching across the table. Other than that, everything was a delight.

I'm excited to come back next time I'm in the bay area!“

“This place has been around for years but surprisingly, this was my first time here.   When you walk in, it gives off the vibe that it used to look like the elegant but homey vibe.  It still has the same vibe just a little worn.  From the outside it is definitely a hole in the wall, you wouldn't think it was that big from the outside.
I think we were one of the first ones here?  We were greeted and seated right away.  It wasn't too busy when we went but you can see the regulars slowly coming in.
We ordered:
1.  Nilagang bulalo - Hot and fresh for the cold afternoon.   It was very meaty and had a variety of vegetables like carrots, potato,  and bok choy

2.  Pork sisig - I'm not sure why I was expecting it to come out sizzling, surprisingly it didn't.   After mixing it the flavors were on point.   It was the perfect amount of spiciness from the jalapenos, crunch from the onions,  and saltiness from the soy sauce. This is one that I highly recommend,  maybe even with a fried egg on top or garlic rice.  It's also perfect as is with steamed rice.

3.  Pinalutong tadyang- I thought this would be crunchy and hard.  It was the opposite, it was tender and didn't need much to get it off the bone

4.  Pancit bihon- I liked there was a lot of noodles and not all vegetables like some places.

Service was good,  food was delicious,  and reasonably priced.  A lot cheaper compared to filipino restaurants nearby.   It's not bougie, it's home style cooking good ol comfort food.   I will be back soon and try their other items.  The breakfast plates people were ordering looked delicious and the portions were generous.“

“I really liked the Binagoongan Rice. The flavor was there. It’s a meal by itaself and the portuon was large.“

“no frills takeout filipino restaurant serving a variety of silogs for less than $10. you can’t beat the value per price point at superstar. overall, top tier restaurant!

hong kong style pork: must try. perfectly fried and flavorful. garlic rice was a hit.“

“Mama Go's is bar none the best restaurant in Terminal 1, if not all of SFO. They're extremely friendly, their food is delicious and fresh, and they're really quick if you've got an imminent flight.

In our case, we placed a large catering order and were blown away by the excellent service we received - they white gloved the whole process end to end, from order to pickup.

They are our go to's when we're traveling and crave Filipino food!“

“One of the best Filipino food to go to if you need a quick fix! Also very friendly staffs. School street in Daly City, CA.“

“I chose this spot for a girls’ brunch out I organized because it could accommodate a large group up to 10 people and the online reservation system through Toast was flexible, allowing me to make modifications leading up to and even during the week of our reservation date.

I’m very satisfied with this place as a brunch option. I prefer Asian fusion brunch to other brunch cuisines, so this place was ideal. Also, various members in my party, including myself, have dietary restrictions, but this place is allergy friendly and accommodates special diets as well, so there ended up being something for everyone, and everyone in my group liked the food.

One of my friends who’d been here before ordered the poached chicken porridge/congee. Out of everything on the menu, it sounded the best and seemed reasonably healthy, so I got that as well. It was delicious and reminded me of the congee I was served on a Singapore Airlines flight a couple years ago. While a bit pricey, the portion was large, so it was a decent value.

So far, this has been one of my better brunch experiences in SF and probably one of the only places I would return to.“

“I had 2 separate deep cleaning by two different dentist and they both were wonderful in their own right, yet they both had the precision touch known by this dentist team. It is the reason why I come here. I also had a follow-up as well. Great attention to detail. Thank you!“

“I Love Purple Burritos!!!“

“Irma's food is delicious and the price point is something that cannot be beat ! Thank you Irma for being a part of my 2020 New Year's Eve celebration ❤❤❤ We will be seeing you in the New Year and Beyond 🙏🙏🙏“

“Food was great and tasty. Will come back again.“

“Love eating here at Chibog;) Home cook meal! Great service as well. They have so many delicious food to choose from!“

“Amazing flavors and presentation, efficient service. But letting entitled, shameless patrons bring dogs in the restaurant to whine and yap and disturb diners?? Management needs to train staff to stand up to the Karens, bounce dogs, and avoid heath code violations.“

“This is the second time we have been here. We ordered so much food, which caused us to have a lot of leftover, but we wanted to try different plates we haven't tried the last time. I loved their, kare kare, their lumpia, their pork and chicken adobo, pinakbet with garlic rice. Yummy.“

“Always to stop in on my way to , or from grab bite to eat yummy“

“Incredibly authentic Filipino hole-in-the-wall doling out a wide variety of ready-to-go stews and crispy fried specialties (e.g whole fish)Very reasonably priced, generously portioned lunch platters with choice of carbohydrate and two entrees. Highlights include:(i) chicken or pork adobo,(ii) ginataang kalabasa (pumpkin coconut milk curry with fresh veg and seafood), and(iii) lumpia rolled fresh by the house matriarch on-site.Glass-noodle pancit, while tasty, is more of a personal preference choice.An excellent option for Filipino in the Outer Mission/Excelsior — with a very strong, no-frills, friendly vibe from the islands.“

“It reminded me of when I was a young girl and would go to visit my mama and papa. Papa always threw down in the kitchen, from adobo to caldareta! This place is one to go to for authenticity. But they are CASH ONLY. So be sure to hit an ATM beforehand. Enjoy! Highly recommend.“

“Very tasty Filipino food, only one small table outside…. But there is a park just a block or two away to enjoy these delicious creations“

“Laing is delish, torta, beef afritada is good. Pansit bihon a little soggy. I’ll rate Via Mare 4 out 5 stars. Will definitely recommend your place and will comeback to try other dishes. Very polite staff I may add. Keep it up👍🤞“

“Chinese Restaurants serving Fusion of Filipino BREAKFAST SILOGS. I've been going here since 2004 , for almost 20 years 4-star. price is reasonable.“

“I went to a Starbread at a different location a few years ago and fell in love with the señiorita bread. I was in San Francisco for a few days and found out there was a Starbread here as well. I wanted to go back and get the bread that I remembered being so good. Well, this place did not disappoint! The señiorita bread was actually better here, it was fresh and sweet and buttery! Because I was traveling back home, I only got 10 for $6 however next time I will be getting a bigger box to bring back home!“

“I love🥰 every inch of you, 2-tier yummmmy Ubelicious cake😋“

“Delicious Filipino food 👌🏼“

“Whenever I'm grocery shopping here, I make it a point to stop by here. The food is always fresh, and you get service right away. I typically get lechon kawali or the bagnet. My dad loves the crispy chicken skin, or depending on the mood, they get chicharon bulaklak. This time around, my dad tried the crispy bangus.
I'm not sure why the reviews are so bad. The food and service are good.“

“Unadulterated Filipino recipes. Very reasonable pricing. Wide variety of choices. Great people behind the counter. Operated & managed according to the values & demeanor of the original founder & owner. And if you were lucky enough to know the lady that's all the recommendation you would ever need.

Dietary restrictions: If you have dietary restrictions don't go to a Filipino restaurant. You'll have a difficult time enjoying the food as it should be eaten. If you're willing suspend the rules, for one meal... by all means- go.“

“I've been here a few times, and I recently brought my mom. It's her favorite Filipino restaurant now. We've ordered and enjoyed: lumpia, chopsuey, beefstik tagalog, and pansit miki bihon combo. Our latest visit, we tried the Hawaiian oxtail soup. The meat was tender, and the broth was light and flavorful. And we always get my favorite dessert: mini bibingka, always warm and yummy.“

“Food (Lomi was the best) and service was good. Starbread AmAzing as always! 😋“

“Though I don't gamble and live like 40-45mins away from this place, we tend to drive up to lucky chances from time to time to get tapsilog, they do have a variety of tapsilog combinations and not to mention large portions too. I love how they serve you the whole fried bangus with the head and tail still attached ??, The bangus sisig is also good. We usually try and take it to go since this place gets packed at times, but end up eating it there and somehow finding a table for our group. The servers are not the best at times. They could come out rude at times when it's busy and tend to forget about your table after the food is served you often have to flag them for water refills or for napkins and when one or two of your orders are still missing. Other than that, it's always good food and a decent spot to get some good Filipino eats.“

“Food was so flavorful! We ordered fish, beef calderetta and the garlic rice with pickled veggies on the side, one of the best meals I’ve had in a while from a restaurant! Service was a little slow, it took about 20 minutes for us to get our drinks from when we sat down but the waitress was nice so we didn’t mind much. Atmosphere is a little loud, I think they rent out half of their restaurant for parties and events and there was one going on that night, but that’s also a good thing, I’ll keep them in mind next time I have an event lol.
All in all, I’d go there again because the food was top tier!“

“Good food 🥘 Fun atmosphere“

“The hopia is to die for!!! Good luck trying to get a hold of them. I gave it a 4 because I can never get a hold of anyone and it's closed when I go to the actual store. Hours need to be updated on line or have some type of updated sign with actual store hours...Or you can always hire me to answer all calls and take orders and pay me in hopia.. Lol“

“Good food! Had fresh lumpia, lechon kawali, guinatang laing, halo hali, sweet and sour tilapia, rice! aBusog lusog!“
