Authentic Filipino cuisine served by a friendly sole proprietor. While we ate, a steady stream of regular customers came in to chat with the owner in Tagalog and pick up to go orders. Felt like we were being welcomed into a stole of the Filipino community in the city.

High Five for JT’s Filipino Restaurant!
If you’re craving authentic, home-style Filipino comfort food in San Francisco, JT’s Filipino Restaurant is the spot! I stopped by and ordered their Longanisa and Afritada over rice, and let me tell you—it was a flavor-packed experience!
The longanisa was perfectly sweet, savory, and caramelized just right, with that irresistible snap in every bite. The afritada? Tender chunks of meat simmered in a rich, tomato-based sauce, full of deep, hearty flavors. Served over a bed of steaming white rice, it was the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and satisfying.
The portion sizes were generous, the service was warm and welcoming, and the food tasted just like a home-cooked meal. Don’t let the atmosphere distract you from the home-cooking deliciousness—this place is all about the food, and it delivers big time.
Five stars, high fives all around—definitely coming back for more!

If you're a fan of Filipino food, this restaurant is a must-visit. The service is impeccable, with a team that goes above and beyond to ensure your dining experience is memorable. The food is a culinary journey through the Philippines, with the kare-kare and halo-halo standing out as my favorites. The ambiance is warm and charming, reflecting the rich culture of the Philippines. An absolute delight!

I always liked to support filipino businesses pero di ko talaga bit food nila dito. All the food is very sour. My first time I had adobo and its so sour I end up throwing away , ang sayang cause I had convo and it’s expensive for a convo $20 . Even though I did not liked the first time I went again and get dinuguan and caldereta and it’s still very sour. They over power everything with venigar. They need better cook.
One of the worst places I've been in. Staff is unfriendly. Food taste horrible. I wouldn't trust eating anything from this place. Buyer beware!

Someone brought me dinuguan from this restaurant, but it was disappointing. It was dry, resembled shredded pork, and was overly sour. I had high hopes that this would become my new favorite spot for Filipino cuisine, but it certainly won’t be.
Lovely Filipino restaurant! Will be coming back for more! :)

Lovely, humble spot for homestyle Filipino cuisine. Let Tita Tess, the owner and chef, make you a plate of her favorite specialities and you won’t be disappointed! I especially loved her pancit and munggo beans, both of which are vegetarian. Cash only!

A restaurant that Koreans will love. There were 10 Koreans who ordered different dishes and they all said it was delicious. I only took pictures of my food, and it was very delicious.
