Mang Eton Filipino Food

I came here with my family and we ordered 3 meals and we ask if we could have some patis (fish sauce) and the staff said we don't offer fish sauce and gave us chili oil which is super odd for a Filipino restaurant not to have fish sauce to give to customer. We sat down to eat and another table came in order the same food we got and was given fish sauce. It was really annoying to see that they gave it to the other table but not to us. We drove an hour to come here to eat to support this business. I was going to ask the staff but she seem so unwelcoming and so annoyed she had to work. I would not come back and would not recommend this restaurant.

DO NOT GO HERE.

I placed an order online for takeout. When my boyfriend got there they told him they didn’t have one item for our order. He called me to let me know what was going on. First of all, why would they not call (my phone number and email were on the order) to let me know they didn’t have the item so we could pick something else so my son wasn’t without lunch? They waited until we showed up to pick up to say anything.
I told him to have them refund it. They claimed they did. I checked my card, there was no pending refund. He let the woman know and she claimed she refunded it.

Over a week later, still no refund. They basically stole $15 and shorted us a meal.

Oh, and the food that we did get was absolute garbage. I grew up eating Filipino dishes and this food was stale, flavorless, and just downright gross. We threw pretty much everything out without finishing it. It was that bad.

DO NOT GO HERE. DISHONEST STAFF AND HORRIBLE FOOD.

One of my favorite Filipino places in the DMV. Sisig is the best.

Some of the best lechon in the area! Great lunch/dinner spot, but also a great option if you want to get whole suckling pig catered for an event. We had two for our wedding, and it blew our guests away!

Also highly recommend the calamansi juice there, it's way better than anything that comes in a can.

Food was delicious (and I am Filipina)! Will be coming back again for authentic Filipino food. Ordered the lechon belly, chop suey, ube cheesecake, and calamansi juice. Yum!!!

Mang Eton in Annandale was a fantastic find! We ordered the lechon belly, chop suey, and calamansi juice, and everything was fresh and flavorful.

The absolute star of the meal was the lechon belly—perfectly crispy on the outside with tender, juicy meat inside. The seasoning was spot on, and every bite had that satisfying crunch you hope for in great lechon. If you’re visiting for the first time, this is definitely a must-order.

The calamansi juice was another surprise favorite. It was incredibly refreshing with just the right balance of sweet and citrusy, making it the perfect drink to pair with the rich flavors of the meal.

The chop suey was also delicious, packed with fresh vegetables and cooked just right. Friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere made the experience even better. We’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu!

Tried a few things. The Lechon Belly was delicious.

Some of the appetizers I tried were not my favorite but were cooked well; just not a fan of the sweet flavors on meats. Not dinging them on those since it's just a personal preference.

Will be back to try more options.

My first time ordering from here, and we got the pancit, kare-kare pork belly, pork barbecue, lechon belly, and lumpiang shanghai. The Pork Barbecue and Lechon Belly were definitely the highlights — flavorful and really enjoyable! Unfortunately, the rest of the dishes didn’t meet my expectations. The pancit was too salty and had a weird taste, the pork belly in the kare-kare was very tough, and the lumpiang shanghai was also overly salty and didn’t taste very good. Sadly, because of the overall experience, we won’t be coming back

First time coming here with great expectations because of great HYPE! One food we ordered was beef steak...it was DRY and tough. My husband did not eat any of it. We had to take it home to see if we can fix it to our liking, coz we feel bad spending that much money on something we did not enjoy.
NEVER AGAIN ARE WE COMING BACK...NEVER AGAIN ARE WE SPENDING SO MUCH OF OUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON FOOD WE DID NOT ENJOY.
I really hope people would be honest in their review so other people will not be lured from the HYPE.

Best Filipino food in NOVA and DC in my opinion. I have ordered several catered dishes from Mang Eton and it never disappoints. Delicious food with quality ingredients.
