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“

“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“

“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“

“the best ube & vietnamese coffee cheesecake😍“

“Good service and delicious food“

“this restaurant needs more location food is great!“

“One of my favorite quick and easy travel meals in the city! I used to go multiple times a weeks when the location was downtown. The new capital hill spot has fairly easy parking. Though not near my work route, I still make the trip over for the bacon/ham/ egg or the garlic beef. Lots of amazing stuff to try with loads of light and airy seating options.“
