Waited 25 minutes and paid $16+ for maybe $8 worth of cold, bland, food. I ordered Chicken Adobo, and got what appears to be someone's attempt (and subsequent failure) at making Beef Carne Guisada.It is bland and almost tasteless. Not to mention borderline cold. The rice is rice. Nothing to mention there. Lumpia was undercooked and almost raw inside. I had to nuke it in the microwave to make it edible. Despite that it tastes... okay. But it is a far cry from what I know lumpia to taste like.Overall poor experience. I went around 6:30p on a Tuesday. There 1 was other customer in the restaurant and what appeared to be 2 employees sitting and chit-chatting at one of the tables. The cashier was friendly but overall she was not helpful in explaining what the food was that I was ordering. Her description of the Chicken Adobo is "chicken in brown sauce". Which I suppose is an apt description but I wouldn't really know as I got some sort of beef dish.There was 1 cook working and he spent most of his time walking back and forth from the front to close the swinging doors that kept swinging open that led to the kitchen. I must have seen him stop cooking around 30 times to walk all the way from the back of the kitchen to close the doors.This is one of the poorest representations of Filipino food I've ever had. It wouldn't be my first choice of dining in Lubbock and I may not go back.

Do not try ordering online!! I placed an order online this evening 10/16/21 and it was a nightmare!! Owner didn't know they were allowing orders online!! We will never order from there again because she was also rude to me when I called. She wouldn't refund my money either!!

Food was extremely dry and a bit over priced.

The 2nd time I've come to this restaurant and it's closed during business hours. Get your schedule together. If your closed it should be listed on your website!

On recommendation from a friend, I visited Casa Manila and the first thing I noticed is the cleanliness of the place. I went during their dinnertime, 5-9pm, and it was mostly empty. Every table was clean, the floor was clean, everything was clean. I ordered chicken adobo and lumpia appetizer. For dessert, I had the turon. Everything was wonderful: the chicken had the right amount of tenderness, the rice was firm, and the turon was sweet but not overly sweet. I am definitely returning.

Absolutely delicious! Very authentic and fresh! Chicken adobo, garlic shrimp, lumpia and garlic rice was amazing. Will definitely be making this a regular thing.

Had a delivery to purchase from here for a customer. The card that the delivery company has us use was giving us problems. The first 3 attempts, it was declined. The 4th time that they ran it went through successfully and I had a receipt showing that it went through. The cashier was showing prejudice and about 5 minutes later yelled for the kitchen to stop making the customer's order. He came up to us where we were waiting and told us the card was declined that 4th time and gave us a reprint showing the card declined, but it didn't show which attempt it was for, and told us we needed to leave. Afterwards we called card services and they verified the purchase went through and they got their money. Screw those guys, I will never go there again, as a vendor or a customer.

Was not terribly impressed. Food was a bit dry. Plus, it was ready so quickly that I’m not sure there was time for it to have been made fresh. Seems like it was maybe just reheated?

Awesome food and they were nice. Authentic Filipino food at a good price! Reminds me of home and my childhood!
