Filipino Restaurants near Tukwila, WA

“The best restaurant in Seattle under new management. Food and service are great. We will visit again. Highly recommended.“

“The food is always great!“

“Service and Atmosphere: 2 Stars
The service felt rushed, and two employees in particular seemed disengaged and inattentive. They did not appear interested in listening to customers, which made the experience feel unwelcoming. Another staff member repeatedly asked us to repeat our order, yet still failed to provide what we requested. Overall, the process was chaotic, disorganized, and lacked hospitality. Additionally, some food labels were missing or mismatched, adding to the confusion.

Food: 4 Stars
The price point of $9.99 for a two-side, one-entrée dish was reasonable. The turon, chicken adobo, and pork adobo were flavorful and well-seasoned. The adobos leaning more on the sweeter side without being overly vinegary or salty. However, the mini eggs in the adobo were noticeably overcooked, suggesting they had been sitting in the dish too long. The lumpia and pancit were acceptable but not remarkable. Unfortunately, the food was served at room temperature, which diminished the overall quality—likely due to the slow-moving line.

Overall Impression
The food itself shows promise, with certain dishes standing out in flavor, but the overall experience was impacted by poor service, long waits, and inattentive staff. The cashier was the only friendly employee, though service at checkout was slow. I would consider returning when it is less crowded, with the hope that service and attentiveness improve to match the potential of the food.

Price: 8 items for $31.92“

“Musang is absolutely some of the best Filipino food you will ever have. They put their heart on the plate and it's an experience to remember. I'll be back.🥰“

“Easily some of the best Filipino food in Seattle. Huge portions, fairly priced and amazing service. And the lumpia and pancit has mind blowing flavor. Cannot recommend enough-this is a can't miss food truck.“

“We absolutely loved the food, the people, and the history - what an experience! Thank you for an unforgettable night!“

“Great food and even better staff and owner- very accommodating and friendly!“

“Amazing food with lots of variety that is plentiful and reasonably priced. Bring a hearty appetite and someone to share with you. Can't wait to go back to try the desserts and ube pancakes.

Vegetarian options: Most dishes are vegetarian. You choose what protein to add.“

“Really filipino food! It's so good you'll slap your wife. (Just kidding 😂!)
But Really, it awesome!

My son got to order his food in tuglag (he's half filipino).

Stop by early because they run out of food, because, they cook everything fresh daily!“

“Easily the best restaurant in CID, no complaints, the adobo is the best I've ever had, they make it different from the plain soy sauce with vinegar version, far more complex and delicious. The place is impeccably clean too. Service is fast. Salamat to my Filipino friends.“

“Our family always gets lechon from here so we decided to get one for our son's 1st birthday party. They did not disappoint! Meat was so tender and tasted so good! We only had about 60 guests for an XL pig and it was almost finished! Will get it here again for sure when we need lechon“

“This is a great restaurant, the people and the food are great for the most part. A lot of people have an issue with the weird times this place is open and with the price of the food. I understand that the pandemic hit hard, and it's hard to run a restaurant. However, there are definitely things to critique. The food is good, but expensive for small portions. They are also having a menu change at the end of August (that's what I was told last time I came here). They changed the vegan lumpia to only have vegetables in it (tasted like a spring roll), and are getting rid of the adobo burger (no longer on menu) :(. The current menu does not have any lumpia besides the new vegetable one, no dessert, and no potatoes. I thought the lumpia was a favorite? I used to visit every now and then because we love the lumpia, but I don't know how often I'll visit after the change. Maybe it will be good though, I can update later. This place was great, sad to see a decline because of the pandemic or other issues :( If you have the money, it's a good place to support!“

“We come almost every weekend. Comfort food to the MAX. Would happily give 5 stars if we could, especially given they seem to treat their employees so well (e.g., extended time off after the new year) Almost half the options are vegan, which is much better than most places. They often have a new vegan option of the month as well! Make sure to check the hours before you come; I’ve been absolutely crushed realizing they were closed only once I tried the door 😩😩“

“the best ube & vietnamese coffee cheesecake😍“

“MEKENIE FILIPINO RESTAURANT In the large Filipino community that has come to South King County in the last 20 years you ask the question: Is there Filipino cuisine in Renton? It seems like a tall order. But it isn't. You just have to ask. And the answer is Mekenie's! Opened in 2018 by Monna Lisa Perez, the restaurant is run by her daughter Jonnarae greeting you in the front of the house and son, ChaRly in kitchen making up your tasty fair. Located in the Cascade neighborhood of Renton, Mekenie is housed in the Cascade Mall. Although unseemingly quiet, it quickly gets packed on a Saturday afternoon for lunch, and sometimes on Sunday. The restaurant is also available for private bookings. On a technical note, their food and hospitality has aspects from the Pampangan region of the Philippines, known for its rich culinary heritage. This tradition was on display in this homestyle decor with homestyle tastes that any diner will recognize, and where Filipino Americans will find comfort. All are tasty. As an appetizer, I had the fresh, hand rolled, deep-fried pork lumpia - which came out piping hot out the fryer (awesome). I also had a traditional pork Sinigan with just the right amounts of tamarind, lemon, and tomato - making a nice clear consume broth. And just a little bit of Philippine style fish-sauce for taste. One note, no Coke products here. It must be Pepsi - Definitely a Filipino thing.Philippine brand snacks and drinks are also available to round out the experience. Stop by. Have Pepsi, and prepare to order! Mabuhay!! #supportrentoneats #mekeniefilipinorestaurant“

“this restaurant needs more location food is great!“

“Good service and delicious food“

“stopped by on a whim as I drove down west valley highway and I was very pleased with the service and food! ordered lumpia, crispy pork belly combo and a brown sugar boba and I was blown away! the crispy pork was beyond good! came with a Mac salad some diced veggies and a wonderfully flavored rice with green onion. the lumpia was freshly made and the boba complimented everything. 10/10 would recommend“

“I had the best experience coming here! From the host Dannon, to our server Anna, service was top notch. My party and I all had lots of questions and everyone was super helpful.
The food was as is described; comfort. The lumpia was a stand out as well as the veggie patties. Next time I will definitely be trying the Ube Bread Pudding.
As if the food isn’t enough - the drinks are very clearly thoughtfully crafted. I had the Pecadillo which had a mellow sweetness with a tart ending. Perfection, big thanks to my bar tender Daniel!
If you are looking for elevated drinks, Filipino street food, sandwiches, and generous plates - come find the little speakeasy on an unsuspecting corner of Cap Hill.“

“I used Wildcats to cater a major event for the City of Seattle. They were responsive through the entire process, from helping us pick out menu options, to their patience with the complicated payment systems. The food was delivered on time, the service was friendly and great, and I would use them again in a heartbeat. And most important of all, the food was INCREDIBLE. Thanks Wildcats!“
