Sadly, out of business, saw an For Sale sign in the window.

The food taste home cooked! No crazy additives or excess sugar or grease...this place honestly blew me out of the water! The people were very nice helping us order and explaining dishes since we had never been before.We got the rice noodle with a pork and chicken kabob for $15. Stuffed two people!There is an extra service charge if you use a credit card so we used cash.The kabobs were a little cool but I think it added to the home cooked charm this place has.Will love to come again.

Passing through the area on foot. Looked through the window and saw yummiest of foods. We had chicken and noodles. Don't go for the atmosphere. Go for the amazing food. Limited street parking. Decent bathroom. Plenty of room inside. Really enjoyed our meal.? Perhaps we'll swing in again one day.Highly recommended!!!????2️⃣Parking: Limited street parking

I know that the people here are nice. They are "kababayan" which makes the experience relatableThe food, sadly, only tastes Filipino, and that's the end of it. The preparation is something that is quite distant from being enjoyable. For starters, we, Filipinos, prepare our dishes in tiny bite sizes. That has always been the Filipino way. Here at Fil-Am, it seems that they have indeed embraced being fully American. The slices are designed for Americans, not the Filipinos, nor the Fil-Ams. I ordered Tocino. I regretted it.The fried rice, otherwise called "sinangag", was hardly mashed and not mixed right. I wonder if the person who made this was in a hurry to go somewhere. The flavours of the garlic and salt were not properly distributed.The egg... Eggs are best as over-easy for any Breakfast Silog. If the eggs are not over easy then it defeats the purpose of pairing the eggs with the sinangag and meat of choice.The place sadly lacks the warmth of being truly Filipino. It certainly has the turo-turo set up but that seems to be the end of it. The owners ought to work with lights. It should exude warmth the way that the Philippine archipelago does. The tables, chairs and walls need more Filipino appeal.This is not negative criticism. I really hope this will help improve the place. If not, even if they are the only Filipino dining place in South San Francisco, I may just consider the other Asian food places nearby whenever I am in the area.(I'm from SoCal)

All-Filipino food. The ambiance brings you back home. Their TV shows Filipino movies while you eat. Really BIG serving and very satisfying. Very nice staff. Highly recommended for those looking for Filipino food.

Food trumps all here! Don't expect anything else to be good. The value you get for any of the combos cane turn into a family or multiple meals.Opted for thr pork bbq 2x with pandit + 2 item rice combo with pork sisig and chicken adobo. All this packed to go containers for around $20 is great.Pandit was yummy, not only here. Pork bbq was flavorful and had good amount of ratio of meat to fat. Pork sisig with rice, killer combo and the chicken adobo although a bit dry had enough sauce and brought comforting memories.Service is nothing special and for a fast takeout place tool a while to order and get out because they were struggling with uber eats and rude customers which wasn't my issue but first come first serve would maybe help.
The food was cold had the lumpia and it tasted old not fresh at all only reason for 2 star rating is the owners or workers are not the friendliest also they place a charge for using card

There is little parking most times around this spot, but it is pretty good in terms of Filipino food. I tried the chicken curry, picadillo and chicken skewer. All of it was pretty good. If you're afraid to get some cartilage or bone pieces I would say to stay away from the chicken curry. Garlic rice runs out quick so make sure to go early for that. It's nice to a quick grab and go lunch or dinner.

NO FRESH FOOD!!! Food was cold prob have been sitting out all day, I ordered chicken and pork skewers and they were both cold, also had lumpia that was soggy and cold, overall terrible experience worst $15 I've spent in awhile. DON'T come here unless you want cold food that's been sitting out all day nothing is fresh here.
