Ongpin Restaurant Reviews
Haven't been here in a long time. Took my family to try the buffet for Father's Day. As soon as we walked in they were like pay first. They did not greet us or were polite about telling us to pay first. They were rude. They did that to everyone who walked in. I felt that if this was the case, they should have a sign that you need to pay prior to seating or collect payment whe you walk in and not have you go to the opposite side of the room to pay.

We ordered lechon kawali which the portion was a lot but needed little bit on toasting. Lomi was also good
Great food and staff was pleasant. The negative criticism is they automatically charged for service fees (tip), no matter how big your party. In my case there were only 2 of us and it was an automatic charge.

Ongpin Restaurant, situated in a former liquor store building, is a beloved spot in the Bay Area, serving authentic Filipino dishes since 1994. The warm atmosphere and friendly service create a home-like feeling, where the community comes together to enjoy meals like kare-kare and sizzling sisig. The staff's hospitality is exceptional, reflecting the Filipino spirit of warmth. Customers can also savor dishes like lomi, shopao, lumpia, and chicharron, all presented in a basic yet welcoming setting. Ongpin Restaurant is the preferred destination for anyone craving an authentic taste of the Philippines.
Recent reviews highlight the great customer service and the exquisite flavor of dishes like sisig silog, which reminds one diner of their grandmother's cooking. The ambiance is quiet, complemented by good music. Another customer appreciates the quick service for take-out orders, mentioning favorites like fried calamari and sinigang. The fried calamari is praised for its balanced coating, while the pork sinigang is noted for its perfect sourness, eliminating the need for additional fish sauce. Overall, Ongpin Restaurant continues to be a top choice for those missing home-cooked Filipino meals.
