Filipino Restaurants near Alexandria, VA

“The tasty food is one thing BUT one thing which stood out for me is their great customer service. Jane and her other colleague were all smiles, kind and attentive. You can tell they love the job that they do. This is the kind of service you wanna comeback for more. I also appreciate that they're wearing a transparent mouth shield as it looks more neat than a regular mask. They offer free soup and coffee on top of your regular order which is great since it's winter around this time. I hope they can be consistent with their business approach and I wish their new store a success!“

“Very good sushi and skewers. The bartender was super nice and made delicious cocktails. The Zuki moon Pilsner was very good as well. We got the deluxe tuna roll and rib eye skewers. Can’t wait to go back and try other items. Highly recommend!“

“If you haven't tried this filipino restaurant you are missing out. They might have all the fast food chicken places cooked. The spicy and original are both amazing. Spicy means spicy, too. Don't get thrown off by the spaghetti either. Filipino spaghetti is good with the balance of savory and sweet flavors. And who doesn't want a side of gravy to dip the chicken in or the biscuit, or to pour over the rice. Don't skip on the peach mango pie either. I wished there was one close to where I live.“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“Visited the café today! Loved the delectable and creative menu, the warm service, and the beautiful, cozy interior. We enjoyed the inasal, tocino, and ube latte (complete with delicate latte art) courtesy of Sun and Stars Coffee. Our kid was thrilled she could enjoy an ube steamer, too-- and didn't want to stir her drink because she found the art (Hiraya's logo in this instance) so beautiful. If you want reimagined, creative, and elevated Filipino cuisine where the flavors simultaneously bring back sensory memories of the comfort food of your childhood, this is the place for you. Can't wait to return!“

“it's about time! Mocktails are my jam these days. Thanks so much for opening a cool bar I don't have to worry about a drunk fight or gun shots breaking out.“

“Sarap ng food at mga kakanin nila dito 😋😋😋“

“The area is blessed with two Filipino cuisine locations. This business and Lumings.

For taste, I choose this place. The food is very flavorful and does not feel as fatty/oily as Lumings. Also, Kabayan's combo meal (rice and two entrees) does not break the bank and is a very good value.

For those desiring Filipino cuisine:
Kabayan: If you prefer flavor and less oily/fatty
Lumings: If you prefer BBQ and stuffed seafood

Both are 5-star establishments in my book“

“I love dining at the restaurant (for a lumpia snack, lunches, and early dinners). I thought so much of Fairfax Inn that I chose to cater them for my wedding. We picked up the food and brought it to our wedding about an hour away from the restaurant. The food was incredible as always. We got lumpia, chicken adobo, pork adobo, white and garlic rice, and pancit, enough for 50 people. Fairfax Inn was accommodating and were very helpful in our planning what to get and how to get it to the venue. Recommend trying Fairfax Inn! I hope you love it as much as I do. Can't wait for our next visit!“

“Love Halo halo !! Huge bowl .. omg.“

“My recent visit to Sari Filipino Kusina with my son was nothing short of a delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere drew us in. The restaurant combines modern decor with touches of Filipino culture, creating a setting that’s both stylish and cozy.

The food is the real highlight. We started with lumpiang shanghai, which was perfectly crisp and packed with flavor, a promising start to our meal. I went for the adobo, which was tender, rich, and savory, while my son chose the sinigang, a soup that had just the right balance of tanginess and warmth. The lechon kawali we shared was incredibly crispy outside, with melt-in-your-mouth tenderness inside—a true treat.

Dessert was a shared halo-halo, and it was fantastic. It’s a layered, colorful mix of flavors and textures that ended the meal on a refreshing note.

Sari Filipino Kusina is a gem for anyone who loves authentic Filipino flavors or wants to try something new. Our meal here was not just food—it was a shared experience that we’ll remember fondly. Highly recommended!“

“Phenomenal restaurant with unique dishes and exceptional service. While at times understaffed, the endearing front of house makes the effort to provide a great experience.

The space is quaint but vibrant, perfect for any occasion for singles, couples, or small groups.

Plate sizes vary and the salo salo $70 3-course, a la carte meal is a great option.

Favorites have been the Ube colada, golden rush, hamachi, cassava cake, ensaymada, lamb shank, prawns, and burnt cheesecake“
