The ube pandesal is 🌬👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 so freaking good. Highly recommend it! I ordered the loganisa dish and it was a good sized portion. The bowl of food was prepared very neatly, and you can tell the cooks actually take their time cooking and prepping this food for you. Check them out if you can!
Food and service was excellent! I recommend trying the Ube rolls.
Delicious food and a great first experience with Filipino cuisine! I stumbled upon this spot while walking around Liberty Station (shortly after moving to San Diego) and decided to give it a try. The menu was pretty limited back then - just pork belly over rice - but the owner recommended the ube bread with butter, and it was incredible. Eating it fresh and warm on the spot was unbeatable. I’ve ordered it for takeout since, but nothing compares to that straight-from-the-oven...read full review
White Rice Liberty Public Market offers Filipino cuisine with standout dishes like longganisa and lumpia Shanghai. The longganisa is cooked to perfection with a seared exterior, while the garlic fried rice has a well-balanced garlic and pepper flavor. The lumpia Shanghai is fresh and crispy, complemented by the mae ploy sauce. The ube pandesal with ube butter is a must-try, and the freshly baked bread is loved by many. The ube drink is also a great choice. Service is generally efficient, and they accept Apple Pay. However, some customers have reported limited menu options and issues with wait times, especially on weekends. There are complaints about the lechon kawali, which may consist of fat pieces and over-cooked meat, and the sisig, which can lack flavor. Additionally, the restaurant can get loud due to its location in Liberty Station and the shared seating can make finding a table challenging. Overall, it is a recommended spot for those craving Filipino food, with most dishes cooked to satisfaction, although some items may be on the saltier side or more expensive than expected.
