MFK BY AYSEE MODERN FILIPINO KITCHEN

Love their sisig! It was crispy, flavorful and exactly how I know sisig should be. Didn't order it with egg on top but it was fine without it. Also tried the lechon Kawali and the chicken inasal. The pork belly on that lechon kawali was spot on crispy. My food took a while to come out but I guess it was worth the wait. I think I now have a go-to place to feed my sisig cravings.

This is my third time trying this place and I'm not a huge fan. I know it has good reviews and people love it and I was so hoping to be one of those people. My first time I got the bbq pork belly bowl and it was okay, 3/5. The rice was good, but the pork seemed a little over cooked for what pork belly normally is and very crunchy/hard. This time I tried the loaded MFK Tater Tots with crunchy pork, except they didn't have tots so they gave me fries. It sounded super good and I was looking forward to it, but it was terribly oily and I know I asked for crunchy pork, but everytime I have their pork I can barely chew through the crunchy bits. It's more hard/overcooked than crunchy! I really wanted to like this place because I love Filipino food and wanted to also try the Pancit and Lumpia, but I don't know I will now. I think my biggest problem with this place is that it is very overpriced and I don't feel like I'm getting what I paid for. I'm glad others like it, but I don't at this time. Photo: oily MFK fries

Let me start off with I’m amazed how long it took you guys to open up today... At first I was really upset for waiting nearly 2:30 hours for you to open since I was there at 11:30 am when it says you open at 12. We checked your page before heading over. Should definitely update people better on Instagram that’s coming from a regular as I Would always come to your Anaheim location before it burned down just glad everyone was safe. After not eating breakfast and waiting for you to open I didn’t care anymore about the food anymore . It wasn’t until my fiancé ordered the food for us that I remembered the reason I come here. Customer service was amazing as always . Food was amazing as always . Will continue to go over there from Anaheim until the Anaheim location is open again. Just don’t make us wait to long again. Glad you all god the vaccination for COVID. I came from Anaheim to Downey for your food ! Haha

If you want to try something new or just love Filipino food this is the SPOT!! 10 out of 10!!! You will not regret! I never do

I’m excited that a Filipino fast food is now part of a hip food hall like Steelcradt. Tried their bistek (beef steak Tagalog) rice bowl and chicken inasal combo last Wednesday. The price is reasonable and the servings are huge. I really love the marinade on the beef steak. The right blend of sour and sweet. And the beef was very tender too. The rice was cooked right. It’s nice that they include pansit ( Filipino chow mein) and lumpiang shanghai ( fried spring rolls) in their combos. I like the chicken inasal but maybe a little more flavor is needed. The chef and crew were really friendly too. I’m just happy that they are in Bellflower serving good Filipino fast food. One minor comment. Hope they have a visible menu ( or if it’s changing, have a chalkboard outside). Just that my mom went one time but she didn’t know how to access the menu on her phone. And also for those who are not really that keen about new technology. Overall, i’m excited about MFK!

I've been looking for good Filipino food for a long time. We tried both the sisig and the adobo and they were both mediocre. I think I've had better Filipino food from a take out place than here at half the cost.

The food is Delicious. And customer service is billion %Excellent. 😃 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳..And all of the staff members there are very nice, kind, friendly, kind-hearted,helpful, caring always service all customers with a smile 😃. Thank you again and have a blessful evening and day..#1Always.

Amazing experience. The purple drank is super tasty 🔥 As a first timer, They were very friendly and the speed with the quality is awesome. Thank you.

I'm delightfully surprised at how good the Tofu Skewers are! The texture, the char, and the glaze has great flavor. Two skewers was more than enough food for me. Generous portion size and great value at $10. https://yelp.to/rD_og2pMP4 The plate comes with a choice of rice or salad. I enjoyed the salad because it came with a light dressing, pineapple, and crispy garlic. This plate also came with pickled veggies. Friendly staff and great location at SteelCraft in Bellflower.

Overall, I love Korean and Filipino BBQ so much! I've had this food chain before at another SteelCraft location and I loved it. I really like how there's so many other options in the area and Barrio is just one of those really yummy options when you're there and figuring out what to order. I just love skewers! And the location is so chill with so many seats and tables for quick lunch and/or dinner dates. Sadly though, I came here last Thursday afternoon to try this cafe spot nearby and wanted some good food so coming here I thought was a no brainer until I had to deal with the slow and just not good service. I don't know if the worker lady was just having a bad day or didn't want to be there but I had to literally wait multiple times just to put in an order. She just seemed impatient and wasn't as welcoming or helpful when I had questions on the order and options. Other than that, the chicken and pork skewers are great. I love ordering the Liempo as it's super delicious pork belly. I just wish they were in stock with lumpia as that's also really delicious. Overall, food is yummy and worth it but service here was pretty bad so idk if I'll be back to this location :/

Barrio is a Korean-Filipino fusion joint located in Steelcraft Bellflower. It's what I wanted for lunch when we visited Steelcraft. My wife and I, both being Filipino-American, both craved the Filipino side of the menu. I went with Pork BBQ skewers with rice, which I can never pass up. My wife went with Pork Liempo (grilled pork belly) with rice. The pork liempo was delicious as you could taste the chargrilled flavor. The pork BBQ skewers were well-sauced and very tasty, but a little sweet - even factoring in my very strong sweet tooth. Cost was a little above $30 for our two entrees and a coke for modest portions. We did enjoy eating in the communal seating space at the Steelcraft food hall and I think that this is a very strong option for your entree at Steelcraft. With future visits, I'd love to try their Korean options as they have Bulgogi. I wish they embraced the fusion aspect a little more by offering kimchi and/or atchara to balance out these dishes (without an addendum cost); nevertheless, I think that this is a pretty good option for you at a pretty good food hall in Bellflower!

Lumpia wasn't great, and they struggle to get orders right. Myself and quite a few others were going back to the counter to get it corrected. The chicken skewers had great flavor and I really liked the salad dressing for the side salad.

Barrio fulfills a huge craving for delicious, backyard, home-made tasting Filipino and Korean BBQ, but also a culinary satisfaction for something that feels familiar yet elevated. I had the pork belly, chicken skewers, and lumpia over rice and salad, and everything was marinated and grilled with precision and balance for depth of flavor. The pork belly was charred nicely but still very tender and juicy, and the savory flavors paired nicely with the pickled vegetables. The chicken skewers were far from dry, and wasn't overly salty like some Filipino recipes call for, and the sweetness from the soy sauce conjured some of the most memorable bbqs I've had at Filipino households. They lumpia were great, and the salad was also a big surprise, with cuts if mango and a tangy and sweet dressing. Inside the Bellflower Steelcraft, it warrants a visit either by yourself or with a large group whenever you feel like something comforting and nostalgic. The prices are very reasonable.

I loved this place! It's located inside Steelcraft so it can be a bit hard to find parking here. I ordered the grilled pork liempo with rice (add an egg to it, trust me!). It came out pretty quickly! Although the fat portion of the pork cut was a bit tough, it was still super tasty. I would highly recommend eating it with the vinegar that they give you- the sour flavor offsets the richness of the pork. Would definitely come back for more! :)

Went to SteelCraft and saw a Korean and Filipino Fusion joint and wanted to try it out. I got their 2 Shrimp Skewers plate and it tasted flavorful with a hint of garlic but the pieces were a bit small for me. It felt more like a light snack or appetizer for me. I tasted their Liempo (filipino pork), but I wasn't really into it as it took a while to chew. Other than the food, the staff were very friendly and nice giving whatever condiments needed with no extra charges.

This place is located inside steelcraft. This is the second time I buy food here, & both times were consistent with service & quality. Ordered the garlic shrimp skewers with rice and it comes with pickled veggies. The lumpia was a fan favorite

Barrio is one of the only (if not, the only) Asian food options in Steelcraft. I had to visit since they advertised themselves as a Filipino-Korean fusion restaurant., which is something I've never seen. I ordered their shrimp skewer plate, which came with my choice of carb (I chose white rice) and veggie (they offered kimchi or filipino atchara). The shrimps were delicious and freshly grilled. There were 10 shrimps included, which I thought was a pretty decent amount. The atchara (aka Filipino pickled veggies) portion was tiny, which is sad because it was honestly my favorite part of the dish. I would love to try their bbq tofu next time!

Stopped by for lunch on a nice Friday. Ordered the Tofu skewer with a side of rice and Filipino Atchara. Service was friendly and quick. Food was pretty tasty, definitely fulfilled my crispy skewer craving. Sauce was a little unique but liked the tanginess of it. Defiantly would recommend the pickled fruits and veggies, my favorite part. Inside the Steelcraft of Bellflower I really enjoy this place. Quiet and enough space to get some work done.

I ordered the tofu skewer plate and it was very delicious. The plate comes with rice or salad. Or you can do both with an additional charge. Honestly, the additional charge was worth it. The tofu skewer was tangy/salty and it was very grilled. You can also ask for a soy and vinegar dipping sauce if you would like a more saltier flavor. Also, I ordered lumpia. The portion was small and it was lacking flavor. It reminded me of mini egg rolls. I only liked the dipping sauce that came it. Overall, I would order the tofu skewer again and skip the lumpia.

BBQ charred! Liempo charred! Unable to enjoy the food. It didn't taste good at all. BBQ tofu also not good.

Really like this place. I'm stuck here at the hospital and anytime I'm here it's my go to spot. This establishment is inside steel craft beer garden. So far I tried several items from the menu and everything is delicious. Chicken skewers, beef skewers, plates and bowls all are very good.

Strange flavors it's like yoshinoya on steroids. The best thing there is the chicken lumpia . It's a great deal at $5 but if order two orders because they are small. They do not have soy sauce but ask for their strange vinaigrette. It's very good when mixed with the rice.

Food, service and ambience is great. Will go back again. 2x already. I order the Tofu BBQ. And the pork BBQ is also good.

Absolutely delicious!! This is located at Steelcraft which is a super cool place to hang out in a casual and kid friendly ambiance. I ordered the chicken skewers and my toddler loved the teriyaki glazed grilled chicken and white rice. I wanted to try the pork so whenever I am back in the area, I will for sure be back! The service was friendly and though it takes a while to get your food, you know it is fresh and scrumptious!

Experienced Barrio for the first time and really enjoyed my chicken terrayaki skewers. The protein is cooked to order and marinated in an extremely flavorful sauce that compliments the chicken thigh skewers. A bit too much white rice for me but you have an option for a salad instead. Definitely order again. Staff was super friendly and offered additional sauce etc. It's located at steelcraft bellflower so ample outdoor seating. Nice way to spend some time out of your day.

This is some really tasty food, and beautifully presented for food served out of a cargo container. I got the chicken skewers and even though I'm not a barbecue fan the taste really grew on me and I ended up scarfing them down. Also got the lumpia, which also got better the more I ate.

I ordered a plate to go. I do have to say the skewers were rather small for the price. When I went up to get the order the lady at the window insisted that everything was included inside the box, which I thought was odd. However I took her word for it and went on my way. Unfortunately, when opening the box we did not have any utensils, which makes eating the rice and pickled salad kind of difficult.

Glad we found this hidden gem! The food was exceptionally delicious but a few hours after eating we did get a slight headache maybe from the MSG added, not sure if they added any. Nonetheless it has phenomenal flavor, beautiful presentation, juicy shrimp and bulgogi, chewy perfect rice, and everything tasted fresh so I highly recommend. It's still worth the slight headache! The ambiance was just beautiful because it felt very hipster and modern. It felt like you could have business meetings there too because you see a lot of people with suits. It gets very packed on weekends. Now finally the service...I'll be honest they hired a really cute girl that was cheerful and sweet! However, the manager or owner (not sure) seemed very dismissive and rude. Although, maybe he was just like that so maybe I can't judge. Not sure but it was honestly very off putting. Either way, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt so we would still come back! Update: Hi Stanley, thanks for getting back to me. That's good to know you don't add MSG we're sorry for assuming. Typically we have that reaction to MSG so we just assumed, I apologize! Anyway, thanks for the good food. :)

I'm guessing this place has geared its flavors to accommodate the American taste. Not really authentic Filipino flavors here.. price is pretty expensive compared to portions. Guess you're paying for the ambiance here. It was a nice try but not likely to come back.

I woulda gave it a 5 star but I came on Weds 8th @ 8:00pm and the lady didn't want to help. She said they were closed, but had no sign and she seemed annoyed. I drove a long way for the lumpia and she didn't not want help even tho we saw her making food. Bad business practice.

over the weekend i tried barrio. ordered Liempo, it looked delicious but ended up kind of disapointed. there was about 70 to 80% of the order was fat and not meat. also ordered Lumpia. they were tasty and reminded me of goldilocks.

Super yummy meat/shrimp/ tofu skewers with both Filipino and Korean flavors. Decently priced! You get a choice of rice or side salad. The side salad is really good! Lumpia also tasty, my kids had 2 orders. It's a great addition to Steelcraft.

New spot here inside the Bellflower Steel craft , Korean/ filipino fusion. I had to check it out, The pork bbq is great! the Atsara * pickled veggies is not bad, I will try the Bulgogi next time, I recommend this spot, good food at reasonable price, Also you're within reach the coffee spot, Boba spot , Beer and Wine in all in one Spot.

Food was amazing . Fresh. Pork Belly was marinated beautifully. The vegetables on the side were fresh and I appreciated the pickled garnishes as well. Skewers were juicy and not dry. Dripping in juice !!! Lumpia was bursting with flavor I even got an extra so thanks . Will forsure be back did not expect such great food.

Tried this new spot at steel craft. So damn good gotta try the rest that's on their menu

It was good the first time my wife and I tried their food. Our second try, not a good experience. The Leimpo is mostly the fatty part, BBQ skewers is dry, and the Bulgogi is just okay. Maybe, I got a bad batch but I wouldn't be serving that. Sucks, we thought we have a go-to place to eat... We are X this place on our list.

The chicken skewers had a slightly sour taste to them. Some people like that I guess. But my husband did like the bulgogi and said it had a good flavor. He typically likes atchara which is a Filipino accoutrement usually made with pickled papaya but Barrio's version is made with mango, carrot, and daikon and unfortunately my husband didn't find it appetizing. I want Filipino businesses to succeed so I do wish them all the best.

I've only been here once. I got the skewers and they were very good. Very tasty but the two skewers don't have enough meat for the price. They do pile on the rice. They're generous with the sauces. I'd like to go back and try some other items.

The food here is so consistently delicious. So far, I've only met Ximmery and Stanley, but they are always really sweet and helpful! Barrio is inside of the Bellflower Steelcraft, so you can come here on a casual date, with a friend for lunch/dinner, or with family in this cozy, communal space. I've tried the Pork, Chicken, and Shrimp skewers which all have a beautiful consistency and a delicious seasoning/sauce accompanying each skewer. Skewer combos also come with a choice of rice or a salad. I always feel completely satisfied after a meal from here, but never like I ate too much. There are other food spots in the Steelcraft, but for the quality, portions and price Barrio offers, they are a must try!
