Best Filipino Restaurants in Austin | Eater Austin

"At this Hutto restaurant, side dishes take center stage. Elise’s crisp, golden lumpia come stuffed with succulent pork, chicken, or veggie fillings that are well worth ordering in large quantities. For those craving something other than egg rolls, find other menu standouts, including bistek tagalog with soy sauce-marinated pork steak. Dessert here is a must. Order the Turon, a crisp banana roll with chocolate drizzle, or the Halo Halo — a show-stopping amalgamation of crushed ice, evaporated milk, sweetened beans, yams, jackfruit, sugar palm, and coconut strips, all topped with ube, ice cream, and leche flan. Best of all, diners can enjoy the cozy dining room or order to-go through its speedy drive-thru." - Clara Wang
