My recent visit to Fil Cuisine in Lynwood, WA left me a bit underwhelmed. While the ambiance was pleasant, the service fell short of expectations. Unfortunately, there were some lapses in attention to detail, such as forgetting some of our food items and serving the hot tea at the end of our meal, we had to ask for it. Additionally, the quality and prices of the dishes didn’t quite meet the standards I had hoped for. Our rice was cold and we encountered a small issue with finding a piece of foil in our pinakbet soup, which was a bit unexpected. Despite these setbacks, I believe the restaurant has potential and hope they can improve on these aspects in the future.

Tasty flavors and good service and for vegetarians you can get some of the vegetable dishes without meat. Bitter melon and veggie lumpia is excellent

Food was amazing. Best in-store Filipino food I ever had. Big portion sizes so definitely bang for your buck. Service was proper and atmosphere was comfortable.

Expensive, I really don't get itOily, bland, and extremely expensive.$18 for some beef stew...I ordered, bland. Expensive small bowl. The size difference between family and single serving is identical. The dishes came out at awkward times. We received the pork Lechon Kawali and waited 10 minutes for the other dishes to show up.Pork Sisig - greasy, half of it was fat unfortunately. $16 roughly...it was not "sizzling"Pork Lechon Kawali - decent, but $14 seems very steep. A lot of oil.Filipino beef stew - bland, confusing, and once again, bland. Tender chuck or whatever is in it. That's about it.Overall the food was just very expensive and bland. We had high hopes, but the serving sizes are terrible for the price. We won't be back.

Somehow managed to get to 36 years old without ever getting a chance to try Philippino food, and boy it did not disappoint!!! This place converted me to a newfound lover of this inspired cuisine. Extremely delicious and affordable. I had the breakfast dish with corned beef with some extra eggs over easy, "comes with two already", and they go great with the garlic rice that comes with the corned beef altogether with extra eggs was still priced under 20$. A perfect breakfast that hit the spot in my stomach and missed the spot in my wallet, if you know what I mean. Service was great as well, and I recommend coming in on a game day because they'll have it going on the big screen TV. Ask for Tess, great server.Vegetarian options: Whole bunch of only veggie choices on the menuParking: Tons of parking, with spaces for larger vehicles like my work van or a truck.Kid-friendliness: High chairs and small things to help keep kiddos busy.

The Lechon Kawali is my favorite dish. That dipping sauce was so delicious. The servers were very nice. The restaurant was clean and orderly. I will definitely be returning to try the other items on their menu. I highly recommend Fil Cusine to anyone craving Filipino food. Oooh, they even had baked goods!

I've lived in the Lynnwood area for years now and FINALLY, yes FINALLY, there is a Filipino restaurant in the house! Fil Cuisine is a restaurant in the same area as H-Mart. A little place in the corner without any glitz or glam, but definitely hits all the right spots when you're looking for good Filipino food. I've been here a couple of times, mainly orders to go. First order ever here was the Longsilog. Very traditional with the little sweet and a little spicy sausages, a bed of garlic rice, and an over easy egg. A standard for Filipino food and it did not disappoint. Since the first couple of visits, I've upped my game and straight go for the lechon kawali. The absolute unhealthiest food you'll ever eat, but still probably one of the best did not disappoint either. Deep fried pork belly with some perfectly crisp skin and rice. You cannot go wrong with this unless you tryin to lose some weight.Love Fil Cuisine and for sure will be going back for more.

We arrived and it was pretty busy and a great indicator the food was good. It's got a very casual "five guys" kinda dine in feel so don't expect a romantic dining experience. They do take reservations. Which we did to make sure we'd make our movie in time. Staff: not very welcoming or friendly. One of the girls looked annoyed, didn't look at us or smile once in the near 1:45 mins we were there. Brighter if the people who served us were very knowledgeable or seemed like experienced "customer service" oriented people. At least the second server smiled and was nice though seemed intimidated to be dealing w people. They gathered in the front behind the counter talking and drinking w each other. Not paying much attention to others in the place. I've worked in the restaurant industry and that was never allowed the places I worked. Connect and eat n drink in the back. And be aware of your customers. Do they need napkins, more water, the check?Food. We ordered soda and water to drink. Soda came in a can w a straw. No glass was offered. Took awhile for someone to come back for me to ask for one which I did get promptly. Appetizer: we ordered the pork lumpia. Small and crispy but very yummy. Salad: ordered their tossed salsa which had small fresh cubes of mago. W a honey mustard dressing that wasn't typical but was quite refreshing and a perfect pairing w the salad. Entree 1: chicken adobo and rice. Just ok. Had a strange taste we couldn't quite identify but didn't taste like a traditional adobo. I thought it was almost Smokey. Regardless couldn't put our finger in it and was just ok. But serving size was good for 1 person. Also came w a big bowl of white rice. Entree 2: porketa. Oh my oh my. Delicious. It's served chopped up. We ordered "family" size and quite frankly there's so much left over the 3 of us can prob eat for 2-3 more days. This was tender, flavorful, crispy on the outside. So amazing. Side dish: pancit. We got the traditional one w a combo of chicken Pork and shrimp. It was perfectly made. Noodles were soft and flavorful. Little bits of meat and cabbage in every bite. Family size was Again enormous & Prob can eat this all week. Both filling yet light. The fresh lemon squeeze gave a perfect brightness to the noodles. I enjoyed seeing many Filipinos in the place. And watching all the delicious food they ordered while we waited for ours. So many options and so many things sounded delicious but we'll wait for next time. Pricing is good especially for the quantity n quality of food. Only 3because I would come back for the food NOT the service. Infact likely would grab and go. But it's nice to have a local authentic Filipino place. So if you want to try some good food check them out but set expectations accordingly if you're dining in.

There is a girl that has right arm tattoo very rude and interruptive. IDK if she's having a bad day or something, but really had an attitude when I was ordering my food and gave me a rough 1st impression to the restaurant.Food is good but if there is a category rating for service it would be low or poor quality.
