The 15 Best Filipino Restaurants In SF - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"This spot pulls double duty as a restaurant and a bakery, and both are worth a visit. The bakery serves some of the best Filipino-style pastries—don’t leave without grabbing the cloud-soft starbread and a pork or chicken empanada with a snappy shell. At the restaurant, expect the classics like textbook-standard lumpia and a $20 all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet with scrambled eggs, garlic sausage, adobo, and rice. There’s usually a line, so if you're short on time, head to the bakery instead and fill up on whatever’s left in the display case." - gabi moskowitz, julia chen 1, patrick wong
