Patio Filipino

We wanted to come back to this location for a while. Their dishes are family style. We ordered: patio sampler ( lumpia, calamari, and fried chicken wings) for appetizer, crispy pata Kare Kare , chicken and pork adobo, the ginataang sitaw & kalabasa, pancit bihon, and garlic rice. Their portions are big, that we had leftovers for today. Everything was so good but the best part was the crispy pata and chicken and pork adobo. It was so tender. The meat was falling off the bone. Yummy. I even got mom stamp of approval with how soft the vegetables were. So tender. We also ordered dessert: their pandan jello refresher. Also yummy. We will definitely come back. Easy parking, great service and yummy food. Why not! Update: 12/19/2025 We love this place. Easy to find parking and plus their food is very good. We ordered: fried chicken, lechón Kamala, pancita ( skinny and fat noodles), kare kare( oxtail), and kalabasa with coconut sauce. Delicious. This is becoming my favorite location to eat Filipino food now that Viamare is closed. We definitely would come back especially since their wait staff is so attentive and kind.

Everything we tried was delicious and the portions were very generous. Served family style. Friendly, attentive staff. We're going back to AZ tomorrow, but we're finding a way to be able to fly home with our leftovers. 😅

The establishment is of a moderate size. Predominantly, Filipino patrons were present during our midday meal. The service provided was exceptional, with accurate orders delivered in a timely manner. With regard to the culinary offerings, we selected the pork sisig, which boasted robust flavor, but suggested consumption while still hot to preserve its crispiness. Regrettably, the fried rice, beef oxtail kare kare, and gisadong bihon were found to be deficient in seasoning. However, the portion sizes were sufficient to serve 3-4 individuals.

Everything was delicious and most Staff are a hit and miss. The old Staff and the young man that cleans the table is good. The lady who took our order will not ask the Chef to alter our order even when we continued to tell her to ask. It’s just to chop the meat a bit smaller. My Aunts comes here often when they crave Filipino food and the older Staff knows them. When one of the usual older staff saw my Aunt she greeted her and my Aunt asked if she can alter our order in which she complied. They need to treat every request with a lil more consideration and have customer service consistency. All in all we had a great time. Clean restooms and there’s an extra parking behind the resto but it is difficult to find parking on weekends.

ordered food pick up. don't know what happened. we've been loyal to patio filipino for years. last night's order was terrible! the crispy pata was burnt, over cooked and really tough to eat. it was a double but we ditched one because it was beyond consumption. the chicken adobo felt like left overs. the pieces were scraps of meat with like 3 pieces of chopped chicken parts. We noticed they have been very busy lately withh all the holiday events. hopefully they could pay attention to the quality of the food they serve eapecially as their prices have now increased. will not be getting food from here right now. so disappointed.

This restaurant was recommended and after my visit, I know why. Tried 2 meals. Crispy Pork Adobo and the Kare-Kare. Both were wonderful. I enjoyed the flavors of the crispy pork adobe better, but as stated, both were good. Friendly staff that came by to ensure we were doing well. I tried their mango-calamansi juice which was a 5 out of 5. Very refreshing. I would definitely go back.

Feels like dining in the Philippines. Most yummy Fil resto I've ever been to. Our bill was charged with the other table's drinks but was resolved quickly. My family enjoyed dining in this place. We celebrated my aunt's bday and she had a very memorable one.

Haven’t been back here in more than a decade! Forgot that portions are huge. Each item is good for about 3-4 people. We ordered way too much food for 3. Fried chicken dish was the hit. Will try and explore other items in the future. Food was pretty good. Service was extra friendly, very attentive and accommodating. They kept checking on us. We sat at the patio. Definitely won’t wait another decade before I come back.

My brother-in-law recommended we try Patio, which is one of his favorite Filipino spots in the Bay Area. He even went as far as saying that they had the best crispy sisig. I actually don't eat pork, but even I knew those were bold words. We had dinner reservations for a table of 10 at Patio at 7pm on a Friday. The place was busy, and most guests came with big parties of 8+ people. Half of our group arrived on time, and the restaurant went ahead and got them seated at our reserved table. We ordered several things off the menu including the appetizer sampler (fried calamari, fried shrimp, wings, and lumpia Shanghai), garlic rice, pandit bihon, bangus sisig, chicken adobo, pork sisig, bangus sisig, and crispy pata. I ate the fried calamari and shrimp, bangus sisisg, garlic rice, and a piece of chicken adobo. I also ordered a side of fried egg to make my dish a silog. Loved the fried rice and bangus sisig. I apreciated that the fried egg was perfectly overeasy with a runny yolk. More often than not I get the yolk cooked nearly all the way through. The other dishes were satisfying as well. I can't vouch for the pork sisig, but it was unanimously agreed by the other guests in our party that Patio's is the best. We shared desserts among each other including the fried flan and frozen mango. The fried flan was fun to try once. The frozen mango dish was so unique. It had a chopped mango topping and mango ice cream over a meringue base, which we realized had the texture of the cake part of brasso de mercedes. Lastly, I thought the service was fine. Some dishes came out quicker than others, but the staff members apologized for being backed up in their queue.

My wife and I don't usually go to Filipino restaurants. Why, when your parents can cook still and you can get your favorite Filipino comfort foods at home for free. I know. Sounds cheap and yet I suspect many of you Filipinos feel the same way about your parents home cooking. However when we visited my wife's Aunt in San Francisco we were torn. Her Aunt makes the most amazing kare kare. But she's a little more fragile now so with much fighting and a little deception we convinced her to let us take her out. We had a whole bunch of places from Yelp to choose from also but when her son said he wanted to bring us to his favorite place we said sure. But wait it's Filipino? You can imagine the side eye Aunty gave us all. Going to pay for what she could have cooked at home lol. Well, blame it on her son. For the table (five of us) he ordered: -Appetizer combo: lumpianitas, wings, calamari, and shrimp. This was okay. Standard fried appetizer platter. -Crispy Pork Tata: These were absolutely amazing. Crispy skin. Juicy pork meat. He ordered TWO. We finished only one because there was so much and I could hear my doctor in my head just screaming "stop!" But omg this was a meal by itself. My cousin happily took home the other piece. -Sizzling sisig bangus: This is a personal fave of mine. Shredded milkfish in a creamy lemon sauce. I probably ate half of this plate. -Sizzling beef salpicao: cubed tenderloin in a Worcestershire sauce. I didn't like this as much as I had hoped. Felt it was too salty. Unfortunate since my cousin highly recommended it. -Green beans with longanisa: you had me at longanisa. It was the only vegetable dish we got so I made sure to "eat my greens". You know, be healthy. -You bet we ordered garlic fried rice and you bet I ate my share. -My daughter had ordered a Calamansi based drink which we had to remind them about bc all the food came out before that did. The restaurant has a good amount of seating which is great for the family feel. Not to offend our Aunt but yes I'd come here again when I'm in the city. She got her revenge anyways. Somehow she paid for the bill even though we said we were taking care of it.

We chanced upon this place while walking through a windy & cold night in San Bruno from our friend's hotel to another intended Filipino restaurant in the area. Glad the group was in agreement to try this establishment out. Having never heard of this enduring Filipino-Spanish restaurant, I actually had doubts. That all went away when our Chicken Tinola was served. The soup was so good it exceeded my expectations for such a traditional Filipino viand. Next was a round of San Miguel Brewery's Red Horse extra strong lager and we were good to go. The Crispy Pata (deep fried pork leg) was the next "ulam" that was hands down, another winner. Delicious to the bone as I chewed it clean after we partook with the crackling skin and juicy pork meat. Not a fan of Callos (beef tripe) so I can't compare this dish to previous experience. I'd still give this one 4/5 stars though. For dessert, we shared the Mango Frozen Brazo (custard filled rolled meringue cake). Easily A+. Service wasn't as quick as we hangrily wanted it to be, but the joint was handling several large parties that evening. Patio Filipino will now be in our options for Pinoy comfort food when in the Peninsula.

They catered the food for my wedding reception and it seemed a bit hit with the guests. We came here for my son's baptism afterwards and did a buffet. We also ordered food from here for Easter this year. Ambiance: it's always nice and casual here.

Good food and great people. Reasonable prices and good selections that you would want to try something new each time you visit. Some of our favorites: pork sisig, lechon kawali, pinakbet, and the fish fillet. Check it out, I recommend to go with a group of friends to enjoy Filipino food!

We love this place. Easy to find parking and plus their food is very good. We ordered: fried chicken, lechón kawali, pancit (fat and skinny noodles), Kare kare (oxtail) and kalabasa with coconut sauce. Delicious. This is becoming my favorite location to eat Filipino food now that Viamare is closed. We would definitely come back especially since the wait staff is so attentive and kind.

We attended a networking and this is where they held the event. They have reserved a private room just for our group. They ordered lumpia shanghai, chicharon bulaklak and camaron rebosado as appetizers. Then for main entrè - beef mechado, callos, adobo, paella, and bangus sisig. Everything was good And for dessert some ordered halohalo and some got the brazo de mercedes which has an ice cream and corn i think? The service and staff were really great and fast. Parking is a little challenging though but the place is clean and decent. Overall , I would recommend it here for filipino food cravings.

My cousin was in town from Arizona and was in nearby in Burlingame. It was a cloudy/ rainy evening, so I brought her to Patio Filipino. We ordered the sinigang na baka (beef) and the chicken/ pork adobo. It was just what we needed to feel warmed, comforted, and reminiscent of our childhood and our Lolo Bert. I ordered the sweet tea gulaman, which was perfectly light and refreshing. This is a great restaurant to visit if you're flying into SFO or you're traveling through and just want that comfort food. Thank you, Patio Filipino!

Food was great! Husband and I ordered sinigang and crispy Pata. Serving size was more than we could eat and have plenty of leftover.

Patio Filipino really knows how to do crispy right! Their Lechon Kawali, Pork Sisig, and Crispy Pata were all perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside--exactly how they should be. The Patio Sampler, Sizzling Bangus Sisig, Pancit Combination, Sotanghon Guisado, and Pinakbet were also amazing, packed with authentic flavors that really hit the spot. The restaurant has plenty of tables, making it a great spot for groups, and service was fast and efficient, which was a big plus. The only reason for the 4-star rating is that the Kare Kare lacked flavor--it could've used a richer, more robust peanut sauce. Other than that, everything else was fantastic, and I'd definitely come back for more!

My husband I had dinner here last night, Monday 09Jun2025. This place never fails me at all. I ordered lumpia, beef bulalo, calamari, pancit bihon and buko consetta for dessert. The place is clean, peaceful. Servers were attentive and nice! The calamari is crunchy and tasty, and lumpia too. They had the fresh garlic and vinegar dipping sauce or chili sauce. The bulalo is soo good with lots of veggies. The pancit is super good with vegetables and sautéed garlic on top. The buko consetta is the best and so unique with mix halo halo and gelatin line inside. Thank you

Love coming here! The food is really good. I usually get to go but when I go there, there's usually always a table to be seated right away. The space is spacious and clean. Usually when I go here I get the pork sinigang, longanisa sisig, bugus sisig, garlic rice. Food is always 10/10 but it is a bit on the pricier side even though it's ala carte. Parking can be a bit tough but they do have street parking available.

Great food, family style sharing is strongly encouraged. can't wait to go again. There is an outdoor patio (hence the name). Great place for catering etc.... Can't wait to return.

Great selection of filipino food. Restaurant is spacious clean and decent looking. Only downside is There's limited street parking. Staff are attentive and service can be quick or slow. Sisig seems to be made from an old lechon kawali. Ordered sisig, bangus sisig which is alright and I enjoyed the laing.

Me and my family really liked this place! It was busy when we went and I guess my only critique was the lone girl who was serving (the 2-3 other people else seemed to be busing tables). But she was really fast when we needed something. Sizzling bangus sisig was soooo good and flavorful! I almost ate the whole thing to myself. My new favorite bangus sisig I liked their Adobo chicken wings Lechon kawali was nice and crispy and delicious. The garlic rice was also really good and complemented the rest of the meal nicely. The Beef Steak Tagalog was pretty good however it's tough to compare to my grandmother's lol Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for good Filipino food! I wanna come back to try the desserts!

I took my husband here today for lunch. It is actually his first time at this place. And pleasantly, he enjoyed the food. Their food is delicious and has generous serving. Their food is delicious. We had crispy pata, adobong pusit and relyenong talong. Masarap Ang timpla nila. And because it's generous, you have food "to go". In addition, it was an honor meeting and Getting to know the owners of Patio Filipino Resto. Mr Gonzales and Mr "Bambi" Fernandez, and the young owner of Goldilocks were very nice owners. They were very friendly and down to earth people. Thank you for the nice service, Prescy and Alissa. We will definitely be back. More power to your business and God bless you all.

We had a bad experience with this restaurant! Our company christmas party was on Dec 12th and my co-worker went there on Dec 7th to order and pay $450 for 1 large LECHON to be picked up on Dec 12th at 3PM. One of our staff drove there yesterday, Dec 12th to pick up the LECHON, but when they were about to get to the restaurant, a lady named Maritess from the Patio Filipino restaurant called and said the order was "CANCELLED"! Literally last minute cancellation for an order placed and paid almost a week ago.... And their dumb reason is something popped on the oven... I bet the Lechon was cooked a few hours before the pick up time so they can atleast inform us about it earlier.. But last minute? I know they were lying!!! Unacceptable and very unprofessional... Zero star for them!!!

This is one of my favorite Filipino restaurants in the Bay Area. I don't go here often since it's a long drive from my house. But it's definitely worth it. When we are not busy, my family actually likes to eat here for lunch or dinner. I highly recommend their crispy binagoongan. The flavors of the eggplant, pork, mango, and tomatoes taste very delicious. It's a small restaurant. There are two rooms. On the left is the main dining room. I believe the room to the right is for private parties.

Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday. Ordered my favorite paella and portion was huge. It was worth $40. They only have paella on the weekend. Make sure you ordered right away because it'll take 15 minutes or more to get it on your table. Beef tasted liked beef jerky. Loved it. Totally recommended.

Good Food, service is fast and attentive. Family feel restaurant. If you are looking for a fine dinning restaurant for your American friends, this is a place you can take them.. the presentation and the twist of the food suits for all and still maintains tge authenticity of the dish!!!

Patio Filipino serves hearty and comforting Filipino food. We came here for a family birthday celebration and reserved part of the restaurant to enjoy a private party of 20. Our table was a little cramped since it was a long table and half of the guests were sitting against the wall. Getting in and out was quite challenging. I was happy to sit on the end. The ambiance was nice but dated. It felt like you were at your lola's living room from the 90's. However, the food did not disappoint! We selected a few orders of the Patio Sampler, Sinigang, Bulalo, Sotanghon Guisado, Crispy Pork Adobo, and Lechon Kawali. Everything was tasty and flavorful. I especially enjoyed the Crispy Pork Adobo. It inspired me to not make my adobo at home soupy. I now caramelize it to give it a more intense flavor. So good! The Pandan Jello Refresher was delightful. Definitely a palate cleanser and very refreshing. It lives up to its name. This type of home cooking is what I miss the most when I moved to the East Bay. You really can't find quality dine-in Filipino restaurants where I live. So yes, when I visit the peninsula I look forward to Filipino food. And Patio Filipino will always come to mind.

So much yummy food! We went with a party of seven and we're happy to be seated out on the patio in the fresh air. I was excited to be able to get fresh lumpia! The pork sisig was amazing. The only negative was trying to find parking.

Ok I haven't been here since 2019. I recall the food being really great back then Fast forward to now-2025. Ordered chicken adobo, combo pancit with no Chinese sausage, and bangus sisig. All take out. And if you read my reviews I always try to support local San Mateo businesses because I live here and pay my taxes here. Negative review start here. For $76.00, I got a chicken adobo with a lot of bones, not very meaty, extra plantains (did not request). Combo pancit of bihon and canton noodles. I asked for no Chinese sausage. The order had 3-4 pieces of Chinese sausage. When you tell a food server to make your food to order, I would have an expectation that they would make the food to order. Maybe it was I didn't speak Tagalog, who knows. Today, when you order takeout, the restaurant figures they're getting paid anyway so disregard your customer. The only dish that wasn't screwed up was the bangus sisig. Everything tasted good. I like your style of Filipino cooking. I just wish your business wouldn't skimp on ingredients. You want loyal customers-I'm sure you have them. I just hate half ass cooking and customer service. Good luck. I'm NOT coming back.

I don't know what happened to Patio Filipino, but they have definitely gone downhill. I used to eat here for friend's birthdays or celebrations, but they have become over priced and over rated. Every dish is almost $20 plus and you need to order at least 4 dishes for a party of two to feel somewhat full. I even ordered to go recently and it came in the smallest to go container. I could've sworn their take out is only for 1 person as well. There are definitely better Filipino restaurants than here.

If there was a no star rating, this place would get it. My wife and I suffered from FOOD POISONING, after eating at Patio Filipino. We love Filipino food, but this is the bottom of the barrel, the worst of the worst, this was hell. Stay away, it must be freaking dirty in the kitchen. They should get an inspection from the health department. STAY AWAY.

This restaurant gives me a taste of home away from home vibe from the flavor of the food, the ingredients they use on each plate and wells a the very personable staff, always kind and sweet like grandma making preparing food for you without the palo or kurot if you don't listen. Definitely worth coming back to. We ordered beef sinigang sooo delicious right amount of spice, veggies and the beef soooo soft, the laing was soo coconutie, I meant so rich in flavor, not to mention the crispy pata so crispy and so delicious with the right amount of salt and savory goodness.

Came here at about 7:30 on a Thursday and we were seated right away. Our server was super sweet and attentive. She took our order and I told her I had shrimp allergies. She was very careful on explaining dishes that has shrimp and even suggested that she will seperate the shrimp from the appetizer sampler which I very much appreciated. We were excited to have Filipino food after days of vacationing so we were looking forward to this. Our table ordered appetizer sampler,kare Kare, lumpia gulay,fresh lumpia,crispy binagoongan,bangus sisig and sauteed bittermelon. Everything came out about the same time which was perfect,BIG portions (definitely family style) and it was so good. My least favorite was probably fresh lumpia tho I felt the wraper maybe had an after taste. But we loved everything else. We will be coming back for sure.

The staff thought I couldn't speak or understand Tagalog and made fun of my hair, saying my hair looked like a troll's, like the ones under a bridge. I was excited to share Filipino food with my boyfriend, but I ended up being embarrassed of this place. The appetizers were overcooked and hard. There seems to be a pattern of unprofessionalism and poor service to those who look a certain way with skin tone and perceived social status. I love my hair and I am no stranger to toxic comments from old Filipinos, but the people and food here do not reflect the best of the Philippines.

Offering traditional dishes, this place gets busy. The food is served hot and fresh. The sampler plate offers a good variety of appetizers to get you started. The paella is a great dish to share with about 4. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating is available.

The service was quick and the staff were friendly and they have the best paella. Highly recommend!

Everything here was so good! We came here with a group of four and ordered a little of everything with lots of leftovers! We got this beef tendon curry based, veggies, fried rice, sig sig and rice noodles. Sig sig was my favorite but loved trying all the other dishes too. The dessert was this ube ice cream with coconut jelly cream on the bottom which was so bomb

Great staff and good food Celebrated my son's birthday there and the first were happy with the food and venue. Party was a success

The chicken bbq that was served to us was PANIS!! The dish reeks of foul & rancid odor! How can the cooks, even the servers, serve the dish to us??? It spoiled what would have been a memorable birthday party for us. The rest of our orders was good, but this dish really was a downer.

Adobo was bomb & buko pandan was good. But please fix your Beef Caldereta. It did not taste good! Other than it being salty, it was this weird dark color with no flavor. Lumpia shanghai was aight, no flavor.

We eat there on Father's Day we waited for our food for an hour and then the penakbet came and their was a string in the bowl we ask them but they don't know what it is so we left the restaurant. The service is very bad.

There's an abundance of restaurants offering elevated Filipino food nowadays, but Patio Filipino isn't that. This is the type of place you bring your kids, and then your kids grow up and bring their kids, and so on. They offer Filipino comfort food with family sized portions, so that you can share a meal with your loved ones and everyone leaves overly stuffed and happy! Every entree we ordered was delicious! There were only 4 of us but we came to eat! We tried the following: Pork Sisig Tofu Sisig Pork Sinigang Beef Kaldereta Pancit mixed canton and bihon noodle Garlic Rice I love how the pork sisig was extra crispy. This was texturally appealing since everything else we ordered was on the softer side. The tofu sisig had a nice crisp too, as they cut the tofu pieces small and fried them well. The tofu sisig could have been a little more creamy but the flavor was there. They topped both sisigs with two thai chili peppers and lemon wedges. Squeeze the lemon juice all over and mix mix mix for that final touch. We were so shocked to see thai chilis as it's not common in Filipino cuisine. We're a family that loves spice so this was greatly appreciated. We even asked for more and they weren't stingy with it at all. They gave us about 8 more thai chilis which we chopped up and sprinkled on everything else! The pork sinigang was soothing on a cold day. For those who have never had sinigang, brace yourself. It's a mouth puckering sour soup! This one was loaded with all the veggies (eggplant, okra, green beans, etc), which we all know is the best part! The broth in this wasn't overly oily (talking about you cafe colma). It was a really clean broth so you know there was a lot of care put into this soup! The pork chunks were a nice blend of fat and meat, but next time we'll probably give the shrimp sinigang a try instead for extra variety. If beef kaldareta is on the menu, I'm probably gonna give it a try. This one has a lot of flavor but it was pretty heavy on the oil. They overloaded this with olives too, which felt super unnecessary. The beef was cooked down so tender, that it was mostly shreds versus chunks. In contrast, the bell peppers and carrots could have been cooked a tad bit longer as they were still pretty hard. It's a nice stew like dish, and was great over rice, but it could have been prepared a little bit better. Would still give this another try though. We opted to have the mixed noodle pancit and I was surprised to see that this only had chinese sausage, chicken and cabbage. Don't get me wrong, this was good, but it wasn't great. I'm used to seeing more veggies like carrots and celery in this dish. Overall it was pretty basic. It's a good dish, if you just want some noodz but we'd probably opt for another entree than pancit next time. They have a few diff rice choices to choose from and all serve 4, however it honestly could serve about 4-6 depending on how much rice you consume. We ate more than or usual rice portion and still had enough for another full serving to go. They do have steamed rice for one, but that will also serve about 2+ persons, depending. We ordered one garlic rice and one steamed because my toddler is a little picky. The garlic rice wasn't garlicky enough for me and overly oily. Most of the rice wasn't even sticky anymore because of how much oil or margarine they used, so a lot of the rice grains were actually loose. I'm not saying I wouldn't order it again, but it's not my fav garlic rice either. TBH I'd probably just stick with the regular steamed rice if I was eating other saucy things, OR I'd give the adobo rice a try for a little extra flavor. They do have a separate dessert menu you can ask for, however, the two items we'd actually want to try were out :( Ube Floating Island I'll come back for you one day!! If you're coming here, make sure you come hungry and honestly, come with at least 3-4 people so you guys can try more things. Each dish is about $20-$25 so its definitely meant to be shared. Each dish feels like your parents or your friend's parents' cooking, and the vibe just feels like you're at home. Though the food was good, the service was a little mixed. The person who initially greeted us asked if we had a resy, and said "I'll see what we can do" and then just walked away.. even though the restaurant was maybe 10% occupied. So weird. We eventually got seated with a diff woman who was really friendly. All other employees were very nice and helpful when we requested new tableware, water, extra chili peppers, etc. We got the initial server again when we asked for a dessert menu, and she kind of gave off the same attitude like she didn't want to be bothered. Not sure what her deal was but we ended up not getting dessert anyways since the items we wanted weren't available. My sisters and I all agreed we had a good overall experience and we'll make our way back the next time we have a hankering for some Filipino food!

Best filipino food! First time trying, ordered through the phone and picked it up after 30 minutes. Crispy pata was big for 1 piece, kare kare has atleast 6-7 oxtail, bbq chicken was marinated like from Maty's in the PH, sisig was super crispyyy and serving was good enough for 4-6 people. 10/10 overall everything was delicious!

My parents go-to place for crispy pata! It's my go-to for bangus sisig! I wish the binagoongan rice had more bagoong and I wish they would use a thicker noodle for the palabok. The wait staff are friendly and polite. Outside the restaurant needs to be revamped but overall, this is a great place to eat Filipino comfort food!

The space was clean and well decorated. It smelled delicious too with the scent of sizzling sisig coming from the next table! The food was phenomenal! it tasted exactly right, and was beautifully plated. All the servers were friendly and helpful and made nice comments about my toddler. They even brought her a plate of orange slices when she wanted fruit. We had the Kare kare, lumpianitas, pancit bihon and caldereta. I can't wait to visit the Bay Area again just to have a meal here!

Service isn't good , Gave me 2 orders of the same dish without reviewing order .. restroom dirty . Not going back there !

I went back for a private party. The service was a lot better than the last time I was here. The lighting was much brighter which I appreciated. I tried several dishes and each one was very good. My only concern was the temperature of the food, but other than that it was good eating. I'm a fan of the calamansi drink too. Thank you.

Great Food and Service! Thanks J and team for a great evening enjoying Filipino cuisine with friends! .

Is this a safe space? (Aka i hope my stepmom or ex's mom never sees this) but this is the best Filipino food I've ever had! This place is so low-key, we had a reservation, but didn't need one as there were only two other parties when we arrived at 7:45 on a Thursday night. We started with the calamansi juice, which was so delicious, not overly sweet, just right. To eat we had the Gambas ajillo, beef caldereta and pork sisig. They were all incredible. It's really hard for me to choose my favorite, but that would probably be the shrimp. They were just immensely packed with flavor, in a way that I have not tasted in a long time. The same with the beef, the vegetables were cooked to perfection inside and the sauce had a sweet finish that didn't hit until a few seconds into the bite, I guess maybe it's made with coconut milk (?) but omg.. absolutely to die for. The pork sisig was also seasoned perfectly. I'm not usually a person who eats pork neck, it's a little crunchy for me, but with this mix of sauces and ingredients it created a creamy, sticky, oniony and just absolutely delicious fusion of flavors and textures. The garlic rice is not a want but a need, it is the perfect accompaniment for all of these dishes. We had the Ube halo halo dessert, which is served in a coconut and it's just marvelous, layered with coconut jelly and other types of fruit pieces. Sooo yummy.

When you get that craving for some legit, tasty, big-portioned, Filipino food, you gotta stop by this gem in San Bruno. We had relatives visiting from Virginia and my auntie wanted to treat us to some authentic delicious Filipino food. My fam and I had been to Patio Filipino in the past and I had fond memories of hella good crispy pata, binogoongan fried rice, bangus sisig. They have a ton of the staples- pinakbet, dinuguan (chocolate meat), kare kare, bulalo, etc. Kudos to Mariteza who suggested that we preorder so we don't have to wait too long. We arrived close to when they opened- they were having a private party and the dining room had filled up (with most if not all Filipinos) by the time we settled in. Definitely make reservations- popular place! We went a little crazy ordering and I highly recommend the following: -Crispy Pata (a must for the lechon lovers- the crispy skin is the best) -Bangus Sisig (sizzling vinegar, soy sauce marinated milk fish with veggies- so flavorful) -Binogoongan Fried Rice (fermented shrimp (bagoong) fried rice topped with tomatoes, mango and crispy pork) -Pancit Combo (mix of canton and bihon noodz) -Buko con Seta (coconut with halo halo and ube ice cream on top!) -Buko Pandan (green pandan ice cream jelly dessert drink) Although it is more upscale/expensive than other hole in the wall Filipino places (our party of 6 was ~ $40 pp), it still has that homey vibe of having dinner at your mom's/lola's house with huge portions. Of course, we had baon for days. Come with a group so you can try everything!

I would give more of a 3.5-4 stars because the food was all delicious but the service was a bit slow. Party of 16 for a birthday and reservations are a must. The restaurant was packed but i had to ask for rice 3x and with a few small children getting hangry, it was difficult to keep them happy. The calamansi juice and coconut juice was refreshing and the highlights were the crispy pata and pancit. Desserts were a must especially the Ube Floating Island. Would return but recommend ordering rice in advance.

As someone who knows how to cook filipino foods too, I love how they managed to bring a really good taste in their dishes, it indeed taste like how I would like my filipino food would be.

Heck yeah I would come back to this place. Awesome service and bomb ass food. This was my 2nd time here, we never had to wait to be seated and parking is always easy to find in the front or back. The host even offers to sell me coffee that may actually lighten my skin. How thoughtful for them to share such cool products outside of thier business. So check it out, I can eat like a king and possibly leave in a lighter skin tone to help raise my credit score. You can not beat this place. You know I'm coming back!!! YOU WILL TOO!

Me & family had dinner here & we always order our favorites: Lechon Kawali or Pork Sisig & Binagoongan Rice. The lechon kawali & pork sisig are very popular dishes. Every time I eat here, I always see other tables ordering one or the other or both. I do want to point out their new dessert which is the Ube Floating Island. It's like ube bread pudding with ube ice cream & yes it was very delicious. Can't get this anywhere else so if you eat here & you like ube, save room for that. Service was fast & homey. The staff always makes us feel like family. The setting kind of reminds me of being back in the Philippines. Also, if you need a private event, you can rent out the other half of the restaurant or outdoors in the front patio.
