Carillo’s Caldo

After getting off the cruise ship, like many other travelers we smelled something delicious and followed our noses. The pork BBQ stick was a generous amount. The lumpia Shanghai was the biggest I’ve ever had and crispy and delicious. 10/10 would recommend! Super sarap!! Maraming salamat kuya!

Amazing food. Amazing customer service. Amazing guys that run the joint. My first time in Juneau, was walking downtown and had to follow the irresistible aroma to this place. Should I ever find myself in Juneau again, will def not hesitate to hit this spot up for delicious Filipino bbq and rice.

We followed our senses and smell to Carillo's Caldo or Carillo's Pinoy BBQ after a paddle excursion in Juneau, AK! Our senses immediately detoured us to Carillo's Caldo once we we dropped off by tour right outside of cruise port. We ordered two bbq sticks with rice and we devoured this so quickly. Homemade Filipino food , we miss good Asian food much. Nom nom nom.

The best Asian (Filipino) Restaurant in Juneau! My favorite dinuguan and pork bbq. They have lots of selections from their restaurant (main branch) and also they have a food cart nearby Public Library. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. They accept major credit cards for payment. Will take a picture of their menu next update.

We are on the Alaskan cruise this summer and we stopped off in Juneau and saw this stand. Maybe I should say we smelled the food cooking from the stand. The smell was incredible as was the food also. If you’re in this area, don’t hesitate to stop and grab a bite to eat.

Great food, big portions. After 4 days on a ship, we all needed some quality rice and skewers. Would absolutely recommend and go again if we're ever back in Juneau.

The long line was so worth it. Went to Juneau last July and this was an absolute recommendation from the ship crew. Seventeen bucks for a pair of bbq and rice may seem to be expensive but it looks like it is good for two persons. BBQ was freshly grilled and the rice is very soft, it seems to be freshly cooked. My 6 y/o daughter almost ate the whole thing and even wanted to take it home (but we can't, sorry!). Servings are huge. Dinuguan and lumpia are delicious as well. This is just a food stsnd in the middle of plaza across from the fire hall. It is close to the port of Princess and HAL.

The pork bbq is the best ever! Alternate larger Carrillo’s Caldo food truck located two blocks west on Egan and Whittier (next to Pucker Wilson’s truck)

The aroma of sizzling meat tantalized our noses well before we ever reached the blue capped tent of Carrillo's Caldo, situated in the middle of Marine Park in Juneau. As we rounded the corner southbound on Marine Way, we saw a cloud of smoke wafting in the wind, and a huge line of people. Would we join it? Of course; the smell was too good to pass up. The line ended up taking about 20 minutes, and soon afterwards we sat down at a nearby picnic table to eat. Combo 1 ($19) - This combo dish comes with two skewers and rice. We went with one of each skewer: Chicken Skewer - Fantastic char on the exterior with blackened almost charcoal-like crunchy bits, but no burnt acridity at all. The skewer is covered with a supremely tasty sweet and savory glaze. The caramelized glaze penetrates every bite of the meat. The chicken is a little dry, but the flavor is phenomenal. (5/5) Pork Skewer - Similar to the chicken, great char, great flavor, but unfortunately the meat on this skewer is a little too far gone in terms of moisture. It's almost like eating a pork jerky given how desiccated the meat is. (4/5) The rice is not good. It's very undercooked with a disturbingly firm texture, making it difficult to eat. The only way we could stomach eating it was liberally pouring condiments on top. Luckily, the truck has a plethora of condiments to choose from. There's white vinegar, spicy apple cider-ish vinegar, and plenty more. Even with all the flavor enhancements, we ended up not finishing the rice. (1/5) We also ended up ordering dessert here: Karioka ($5) - Pretty nice sweet skewer... or at least it would be if it had been fresh. I could tell that the inside used to be bouncy since it seems to be made from glutinous rice flour. It's fried, so there's a doughy chew as well, but it's too far on the firm side, indicating lack of freshness. It does have a good coconut flavor and the outside is nicely sweetened. I think the exterior used to have a crisp sugar shell ala tanghulu, but again it's softened by the passing of time and moisture degrading the dessert. Still, it's tasty enough and nice to eat. (3/5) If I'm ever in Juneau again, I'd visit Carrillo's again, but for the chicken skewers only! I would definitely not get anything containing rice again. Maybe Filipinos like their rice undercooked and hard, but not me!

Our Filipino cruise ship crew all seemed eager to visit in their off-time. So we had to give it a try. Really glad we did. Highlight was the dinuguan - one of the best I've had. Very tender, flavorful pork. Whole dish was gently sour, allowing the ginger flavor to still come through nicely. Longanisa and bbq pork skewers are the easy choice for Filipino food newbies. These were well executed here. The strong sweet/savory flavors are complemented/cut by the plainness of white rice for a tasty, filling experience. Together - this is Filipino comfort food at its meaty/carby best.

If you're in Juneau and craving Filipino food or maybe you want to try some BBQ then this is the place to be! It was raining but that didn't stop us from coming here. There's no tables to eat your food but that's okay. There's space around the cart or you can walk over the roofed area. I ordered the chicken BBQ and it was so good! I wanted to buy a whole tray of it! It was a good amount of meat on a stick for me. I can't wait til next time when I visit Juneau because I'll definitely stop by here again :)

There are two stands next to each other. Choose the blue roof!!! Avoid the red roof at all cost!!! This business has a line for a reason. The service is amazing and the food is hot off the grill in front of you. The view is amazing and it is convenient for anyone in the downtown area. The meat is cooked perfectly and the sauce is caramelized on to the meat. Not a sweet sauce or a deep sauce. This compliments the meat perfectly. I have had everything on their menu and anytime I'm in the mood for something grilled I go here!

Food is always delicious. I've never had something I didn't like I just wish they had longer hours !! The owners and cooks are always so kind ! The lumpia is some of the best I've ever had. The 1/2 order of teriyaki chicken is HUGE. The fried pork belly is absolutely delicious. So perfectly fried and still juicy. Definitely one of my top picks for a food truck in Juneau !

A delightful seasonal Filipino BBQ food stand along the waterfront in Juneau AK. There are multiple similar stands, but this one has long lines of Filipinos -- they are staff on cruise ships, and on their time ashore, this is their preferred food source. I got two pork skewers with sauces and peppers ... delicious and different. Unfortunately, I got food from them on the last day of the season -- they are expected back next spring when the cruise ship season starts again. Here's a link to the owner's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/weng.carrillo/videos/1442463175802543/

We picked up food for our Filipino steward on our cruise. We decided to some for ourselves. Disappointed there was no sauce for the lumping that was included in my combo... looked more like a Shanghai style... there were no veggies in it.

So freaking good!! No complaints, one of my favorite restaurants for lunch!! Definitely recommend
