Filipino Restaurants near Gaithersburg, MD

“In the area for a short while, stumbled across this small establishment and I'm glad I did. We asked to try the Ube Soft Serve, wasn't for me but awesome to have e tried something new.Recently back from Hawaii so I've been on a search for Lumpia just as good. These were right on par. Super flavorful, perfectly fried. Thai chili also served as a dipping sauce.“

“So far I've only gotten take out by the food is delicious every time. I just moved to the area and don't have family around and feel so lucky to have found this gem! The owner is from the same province in the Philippines that my family is from and the food tastes so much like home I always start with the chicken bbq and then veggie lumpia (sometimes the meat one too) and I've had the sinigang and the bangus with bogoong and it's all been so good. I wish they were open more days!“

“Finally I went to this place again after visit them a long while ago. Their food was still very nice especially crispy pork belly. Of course, I ordered Lechon Kawali Bowl (Philippines Style pork belly). This is the main reason why I came here. Also I had Papa B's Fried rice that comes with chicken and sweet pork sausage - that was tasty too. I can't complain anything about the taste of their food or their service, the staffs were friendly, helpful and fast, I got the food very quickly even though it was a lot of customers that day. Anyway, this place is quite tiny - there are a few dining tables and seem too noisy when so packed of people when they come in the same time, I recommend it is better to order take out. Food: 5 Service: 5 Location : 4 Atmosphere: 3“

“Great selection of Filipino baked goods, and an Ube and Pandan-lover’s dream.The donut was fresh, with a nice crust. The cream was smooth and light, though the pandan flavour was quite subtle.I loved the Baked Siaopao, a slightly flaky bread filled with pulled pork and egg.I bought the Ube Pan de Sal as well, and am so excited to try it!“

“Went in today to have some breakfast and ordered the Tapsilog (tapa/garlic fried rice/egg), I also got a Turon (plantain/jackfruit wrapped in an egg roll wrapper and fried with brown sugar) with Ginger tea. The food came out at a reasonable time. The tapa is cooked the way I like it, on the dry side. It wasn't too salty or sweet and the seasoned vinegar gave it an extra layer of flavor. The garlic fried rice wasn't too oily. The turon has this amazing crunch even if it was room temp! Filo cafe also has other sweets that they have for sale and other specials. I will have to come back to try the other items on the menu.“

“The take away: I would definitely come back here.The thorough review: A Filipino restaurant with a limited but respectable selection of main courses. After ordering two of the classics for dine in (i.e., bistek and chicken adobo), the cashier asked me just to pay after my dinner—I wasn’t sure if that was the norm or perhaps, she was simply busy helping another customer with another issue. I enjoyed the meal—no complaints. And apparently, they sell bulalo which I may have to try the next time I’m in the area. There is no shortage of parking outside which is a major plus.On the groceries front, I found the prices to be reasonable vs some places in MD that criminally overcharges.Overall, it was a pleasant eating and grocery shopping experience.“
