SiSiG Restaurants

Got the crispy pata and lechon kawali, both with java (garlic) rice. Everything was cooked crispy and juicy at the same time, Mang Tomas sauce and spiced vinegar included, and totally worth the price. Loved this place! Would come back again.

The Best Crispy Pata and Sisig! Their java rice and vinegar dip works well with the meat. They have the original TibokTibok (Maja Blanca of the Kapampangan). We'll definitely be back here to eat.

This is why you should support small businesses rather than the Fil-Fusion high end restaurants. The taste is authentic. I had the Beef BBQ and Sisig, and that’s how it should taste! The java rice is definitely one of the best.

I recently had the pleasure of trying out a Filipino restaurant that exceeded my expectations in many ways. After ordering food for pickup via DoorDash, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my order was ready in less than 10 minutes when I arrived at the restaurant. They even had three parking spots conveniently located on the side. The interior of the restaurant was lively and spacious, with a welcoming atmosphere thanks to its bright yellow color scheme. Although I initially planned to take my food to-go, I decided to dine in and was glad that I did. The BBQ chicken I ordered was especially noteworthy, as it was both tasty and authentic, delivering on its promise of serving legit Filipino cuisine. The Java rice was also a delicious side dish that complemented the chicken well. My only minor complaint was the lack of a trash can, which meant I had to hand my trash over to the staff, but this didn't detract too much from my overall experience. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Filipino cuisine in a lively and welcoming environment. The food was top-notch, the service was efficient, and the atmosphere was excellent. I can definitely see myself coming back to this restaurant in the future for another delicious meal.

I crave for SiSiG every time!!! All the food is soooooo sumptuous. I have tasted all the barbecue & they all taste incredible! They are cooked to perfection! Even the java rice & atchara are prepared to perfection! The crispy pata is surprisingly affordable. Just the right crunch yet the meat is sooooo soft. But save some space for dessert because they are all to die for. They simply melt in your mouth. Looking forward to many more visits! Thank you Sisig!!!

Food is great! Service is awesome! Sisig tastes like home! Highly recommended!!! Kudos!!! 🥰🥰🥰

This is a new to me Filipino restaurant. Being a Filipino to the core, this restaurant brings me joy through their food, however, I am not that impressed with their namesake dish Sisig. Don’t get me wrong, the flavor is there, but when I think of sisig, it’s hot and steaming and it’s on hot plate with an egg on top that will cook by mixing the dish on its sizzling plate. And I’m sweating with anticipation and wanting to eat it right away but I can’t because I’m afraid I will get burn. But their sisig, didn’t do that for me. It was on a nice plate, with rice and some achara on the side. Okay, maybe it’s their version. Gotta give them that. My husband and kids ordered 1/2 bbq chicken and they all loved it! We also ordered a side of lumpia Shanghai which was good. For desserts, we had taho and maja Blanca. As I mentioned, I’m really a traditionalist, so I like my taho warm and not too sweet. But the nostalgia was there. We all really loved the maja Blanca! It’s much more of a custard, not enough corn kernels for me but overall so good that I ordered one more for take out!

This sisig and chicharon combo was such a fun treat while walking around Historic Filipinotown! The sisig was so flavorful I could have eaten multiple servings. Simple + sarap!

I've never physically been to Sisig, but I've ordered delivery from them several times, and it's always amazing! Anytime I'm craving Filipino food, this is my go-to spot on DoorDash. The flavors are consistently on point, and the food always arrives fresh and delicious. Even though I haven't dined in, the quality speaks for itself. I'll definitely keep ordering from here whenever I want a taste of home!

This restaurants offers incredible food. It had a relaxed, casual environment. When I visited on a Saturday afternoon, it was not too full. I was able to order and find a table right away. The food was also so quick to arrive. Sisig is an amazing deal, with huge portions for good prices. I tried both sisig and BBQ pork, and both were incredible. They were cooked to perfection, so tender and rich. I highly recommend getting the Java rice - it's delicious, piping hot when served, and full of spices. I need to come back and try more dishes. My first visit was fantastic, and there will be many more to come!

This is a great place if you're craving authentic Filipino food. Located on Temple St in the heart of Historic Filipinotown. They all have the traditional dishes. It's a small family business. And I love supporting local businesses The place has a large seating area with high ceilings and plenty of natural light with windows that face Temple St. Once we walked in, we were greeted by the staff even though they were busy. There were dishes and pots on the stove, they were taking phone/mobile orders. You can smell the delicious aroma of all the flavors blending together. The service was fast. Once we ordered it wasn't but a few mins that our food was ready. They have other menu options to make your dish a combo with a second item. That gives me another reason to come back again

Ordered their crispy pata they Postmates. Was still crunchy and tasted pretty good. Will try their other dishes next time! Trust.

Im so sad this location closed it was like a comfort meal i would treat myself whenever i had a bad day and today i was having a bad day and saw they were closed i hope they make a food truck because this food is too amazing to dissappear on me like this

may have my favorite breakfast-type meal in Los Angeles. I got two additional runny fried eggs, garlicky Java rice, and (pro tip) I didnt forget to ask for a side of seasoned Filipino vinegar for that essential acid . It's rich, fatty, crunchy & tender, a bit smokey, and definitely intense in all the best ways.

We were at the Filipino festival next door and they ran out of food, so we stopped in. Many others seemed to have the same idea, since it was pretty busy! Lots of people waiting for food and lining up to order at the counter. We got the combo which came with 2 meats. We chose BBQ pork and sisig. It came with rice, of course! We also got lumpia. We waited a while for the food, but they were probably a bit overwhelmed with the number of customers. The food was delicious! Everything was tasty. It's easy to mess up lumpia, and these were great! Staff was nice. Definitely tried to work as fast as they could. Not sure if I'll get to come back but it's not a bad option for Filipino food! We had parked pretty far away, but I'm sure there's usually parallel spots that you can easily find if there aren't events going on.

I'm glad we found this place while visiting LA. I love the concept that the kitchen is open, and you can see how they prepare food. This is exactly how I want our little kitchen in Arizona to be (hopefully soon). The menu is simple and easy to choose from. The food is good, the sisig is okay, okay more than most of the sisig I've tried in my current location. I also love that they offer beef pares because I don't think anyone has ever attempted to sell them over here, which excites me more. The only comment I have about the beef pares is that this is rather more of a/ Chinese style than the Pinoy version that you will see on the streets in the Philippines, because this one is more on the sweet side, while the beef pares I know back home is simply just a little thick soup (probably full of MSG, Hahaha) and light color, just straight up fatty meat but delicious.  Still, all the menu they have here are pretty good.  Whoops! Almost forgot. We got our food fast, too. So kudos to the service, cleanliness and food!

I am so happy that I found SiSiG on doordash.. and it's sooo close to the workplace. I ordered: Crispy pata! Sooo good! I wished I ate there so I could get some lechon sauce/banana ketchup for it. Super crispy and soooo good Lumpia - yas! soo good. comes in a good number per order. Served with sweet sauce Sisig - yassss. don't question, just order! I need to come here for breakfast, lechon, and their bbq plates. Small menu, so easy peasy to choose. Parking in an alley, or in front. :)

First time trying and was most definitely not disappointed. I placed my order through the phone and once I got there I paid and got my food pretty quick! The service was really good/efficient and the staff were very friendly! The Java rice was good & soft! Wasn't hard at all & wasn't too mushy, just perfect I'd say. The BBQ pork was so so so good. I'm normally not a fan of BBQ sauce but wow this sauce was really good. The Lumpia was good but with the sauce that came with it, it complimented the lumpia so well. The sweet sauce really elevated the lumpia! Overall really happy with their food & will def come back again soon :)

Like most Filipinos, I'm pretty picky with Filipino restaurant food but this place is decent. We ordered the palabok and lechon kawali. Palabok is not included in the combo deal so for both, our total was about $27 which is pretty reasonable pricing by LA standards. There was a generous amount of meat on the palabok. I liked that the noodles were on the thicker side and included a fried egg rather than the typical hard boiled egg, but the sauce was really watery yet salty. Lechon kawali was standard. I would come back but order different things next time. Service was good. Inside was very clean and spacious with plenty of seating-- would be a good spot for group lunches :)

Got two plates. Both had a ton of food but was a bit too salty for both of them. Parking was pretty easy as we were driving thru.

Enjoyed stopping by here a couple of times. I think the food was not bad and felt tastier and with a cleaner finish than many Filipino places in the area. I think the bbq chicken was the best of all the dishes and felt the pork dishes didn't have much of a flavor. Not sure if the marinades were not as long.. and the out of packet/bottle sauces felt a little simple. I think what's special about the place tho is that there's plenty of seating and friendly staff.. I think the place would be cool to capitalize on by making a quick and easy dining stop with lots of fun condiments and food that's hard to eat fresh (um like sisig) since it's got decent parking and at a nicer/quieter pocket of town. If it stayed late, (minus drunk people bs) it would be yummy as a good competition to Leo's tacos that has been going downhill. Looking forwArd to visiting this place in a month or so again!

I was looking for food because my fiancé and I were both getting hangry. Luckily I found this place because we were in the area. And we both like trying new Filipino spots. Menu is super simple nothing fancy but the food is good! Egg was cooked perfectly. Whites fully cooked with runny yolk. Has a lot of flavor. Def would come back if we're ever in the area again. It's a pretty decent sized restaurant. You wouldn't expect it. Decent amount of tables. You come and it's straight to the point. You're coming for food not ambiance. Service was quick waited about 10 mins.

Authentic Filipino food in a casual dining setting. Tried the sisig for the first time, grilled seasoned pieces of pork in a citrusy marinade. Went for the lava rice option and glad with the choice. In and out location, makes it convenient for a quick lunch. Looking forward to try other dishes.

Coming from a mid morning doctors appointment, we decided to pick up lunch nearby before going home. We were passing thru Filipinotown, so I searched (within google maps) Filipino restaurants along my route, and this popped up. Its just by Temple and close to the 101 inlet, across a small hospital. The ambiance looks bare and industrial-hipster, but clean. A bit of a stark contrast to this area, which isn't the cleanest part of LA. Their menu is very simple: BBQ CHICKEN, pork, sisig, crispy pata, and they are already served with rice ($2 to upgrade to java rice if one preferred.) Most of the meals were $12 and up. I opted for pork sisig and crispy pata. The latter's portions were HUGE! and considering crispy pata is such a fancy feast, and was affordable for lunch, I went for it. I almost bought dessert (taho!) however they were quite expensive for a small portion so I skipped it. I really liked how soft their pata is. The sisig had a lot of onion flavors (so that may or may not be up your alley), but overall had good flavor and was good value for the money. I wouldn't mind coming back! A couple of parking spaces on the side of the restaurant, but the front of the restaurant also allows people to park. Not sure if they are metered.

I would skip the sisig. $25 for sisig and a kampangan tamale with a tip they ask you for when you pay at the register without any service. I asked for a cup of water and I didn't get one. You are pretty much ignored while you eat as well. You even have to pick up your tray of food instead of them bringing it to you. Carl's Jr. brings you your food and they don't ask for a tip. They didn't deserve the 20% tip I always feel forced to include when I pay these days. I need to stop this COVID habit until I feel it is deserved. The sisig is strangely the worst version I've had in my life. No flavor at all. Traditionally at Filipino restaurants, it is crispy, fatty and comes on a sizzling plate with an egg on top. Sisig is very flavorful and there is a textural contrast with the fat and crispness of the meat. I was forced to eat it all because my lunch was expensive. Last week, I visited the modern Filipino restaurant, White Rice Panciteria in National City, their sisig was served in a paper bowl and was delightfully crispy, full of flavor, and included an egg on top. Maybe try the kampangan tamale because it was delicious and a Filipino regional food that is hard to find. I only ordered the sisig because someone told me it was the best and the name of restaurants suggests that it is their specialty. If you must, eat something else other than the sisig.

Surprisingly awesome! Everything that we ordered was good. Our favorites are 2-item combo with crispy Pata, sisig, Java rice, also their goto!! The restaurant is clean with a lot of natural light. Service is fast so there isn't a long wait to start our delicious meal.

Very good. Was craving a crispy pata and looking for a new spot in the area I was in. Decided to try this spot and def didn't d regret it!! It's right across the street from the hospital and has a dope mural on it. It's very clean inside and staff was very nice. Prices are also super reasonable. I've paid a couple bucks more for just the pata, no rice. I did the Java rice which was a $2 upgrade. Food was ready in a decent amount of time and I asked for an extra vinegar. Pata was crispy and perfect. Liked how they had it cut. The rice, was initially a little hard for my taste but I did enjoy the flavor. The vinegar here was different than the brown one I'm used too. More pepper, which I honestly didn't love. I couldn't get enough of the pata, and I ended up taking the rice and repurposing it w Erewhon short ribs and sauce. 2 fire meals! And adding the extra moisture to the rice made it perfect. I'd definitely go back and repeat this and try other things. Parking, clean, reasonably priced, nice staff and good food. What more can you ask for??

We stopped by Sisig after having an early Filipino dinner on Temple Street. I wanted to get a feel for the place and check out their menu and seating. It's a very clean and minimalist set up so dining in is good. The menu is simple and seems to have a good selection of favorites. I ended up ordering a crispy pata to go and my wife ordered lumpia to go as well. Before we got home, we tried one of the lumpia and it was delicious. We will be back and dine in. Oh, and my crispy pata which came with rice, that ended up being my breakfast.

Looking for an authentic Filipino food experience that is very well priced? Look no further! The chicken bbq is juicy and marinated with a sweet tangy and we'll balanced sauce. The sisig is exactly what you would find in the Philippines . Customer service is warm and friendly. Parking is free and they offer parking spots to the side of the building too.

In the heart of Historic Filipinotown lies this gem of a restaurant, most of the things in the menu are mostly savory meaty dishes from pork , beef, chicken and shrimp. Truly a vegan's nightmare, I suggest having a maja blanca for non meat eaters (good luck with the dairy though), most dishes are served with rice with Java rice as an option together with sweet sour papaya salad (atchara) and condiments accompanying the dishes making it an enjoyable meal. Staff are helpful with the menu and will explain how the dishes are served , there is no fountain drinks so asking for an extra cup of water or ice might be needed for the hearty meal. Unfortunately, limited parking on the side of restaurant and front street parking is the one of the flaw of the place, a wide window view of Temple Blvd in front of the hospital, most of the ones eat here are really rare because of the parking factor hence most of the people only do pickup orders. But if you get past the parking problem, you can enjoy the atmosphere of quietness or random original Pilipinas music playing in the background.

First time visit. This is a Filipino restaurant that serves various grilled meats. I had no trouble with street parking. I ordered the lechon and grilled chicken combo, which came with rice. The lechon was a bit too fatty for my preference but the meat itself was good. The grilled chicken had a nice savory flavor to it and was tender. I'm taking a star off because I thought my portion was pretty small for the $19 it cost me, although I recognize food here in LA is expensive. In terms of service they seemed like they were trying to get ready to close for the day but were friendly enough. The restaurant was spacious. I'm not sure I'd return here just because of the cost relative to my portion size and there's other better value places in the area but overall the food tasted good.

The bbq chicken was so good! The achara too!! Will definetly go back!!! Minimalist modern esthetic!

The sisig here is absolutely wonderful. I'm planning to comeback to try all their dishes. Not only was the food delicious, the customer service was excellent as well. This place feels like home-cooking by people who cook with love. The menu is relatively small, but it's all about quality of food. Please support this business, and if you've never had Filipino food, this place is an excellent restaurant for those who are willing to explore and try new things.

The best Filipino & sisig around. Such a hole in the wall, great food & portions. I crave the sisig! Pretty reasonable prices too.

They are suppose to be open at 10:30 am. I was there at 11:06 am but this place is closed. I saw a guy, a small, Latino guy chopping some food on the table. He looked at me and he seemed annoyed that I was there. The gate door was locked. The door was closed. I went there because I told my family I'll try it first. We will not go to Sisig because they do not treat their customers right.

I was very skeptical to coming here but I am so glad we did! I'm very picky when it comes to filipino food because mama does it the best. LOL But my filipino roots love supporting Filipino owned business/restaurants! Off the bat coming in, it seemed so homey! Not crowded and didnt wait long for our food. 1 lady cooked our meals-- I think she's the GOAT tbh. LOL working by herself and seeing her hustle like that. Legit, the tapa and tocino breakfast was soo good! (They serve breakfast all day btw). Meats were so soft and flavorful and not dried out.. my fiancé tried the java rice (i lived in the Philippines for a while so IYKYK. The Aristocrat restaurant in the PI is legit my fave Java rice with the java sauce too, cmoooon!) i have not been to a filipino restaurant that had java rice on their menu so when I saw it, told my fiancé to try it and he liked it! 1 plate is more than enough and we both took the leftovers home. So happy to see places like these thrive!!

10/10 this little while in the wall hit the spot!! between the friendly staff & open space to sit and eat the food was delicious!! Would come back.

First time going here and it was worth it !!! Their Pork BBQ was the best! You'll surely love and enjoy every bits of it. Their location is actually nice though it might be difficult to find a parking lot if they get busy. Other than that the place is clean and very accommodating.

Drove here at 5pm on Friday and it was closed. Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

Came in an a rainy day with a craving for some Filipino food. I grabbed a sisig plate with white rice and a Starry, it's like a Sprite. The portion was big and the food was flavorful. Definitely want to come back and try out some of the other food.

Everything is fantastic, especially the food presentation. One thing that has always kind of dogged Filipino food appearance and atmosphere. This place feels modern, clean and the menu is simple and easy for non-Filipinos to decide. The service is walk-up and order and the people were friendly and made some great suggestions.

Definitely an Authentic Filipino food! Their Chicken Inasal, BBQ Beef, and ooof their Crispy Pata was delicccccccious! Their sisig was good too, to people who likes their meat spicy, definitely recommend the Sisig. Place is neat and clean, and relaxing with their oversized panoramic windows. Kuya Cook was nice and a calm cashier, he was multitasking !

We somehow stumbled upon this place driving thru LA and found it on Yelp! From the aesthetic of the place & minimal decor but a lot of Light this place welcomes you in. I rarely give 5 stars but this place changed my mind real quick from the first bite or the bbq chicken and Java rice, growing up Filipino- American I never even heard of Java rice! So a new favorite for me. I usually don't gravitate to Filipino food because of the fat and oils but.. The chicken was grilled perfectly with so much flavor and just enough burnt parts. The sisig was super fresh and I normally don't like it bc it's so fried and spicy. But MUST try Filipino cuisine, I love the plating as well. Sometimes less is more! Will be coming back!

Sisig is my go-to lechon kawali spot. They cook it perfectly so it's light and crispy but still has juicy fat. Many places often overcook lechon to the point that it's hard to eat. I've tried their Java rice as well. Personally I prefer plain white rice with lechon, but it generally has good flavor and is worth adding on to your meal. Finishing the meal off with Taho is the perfect way to go. Overall, Sisig is a place that does not overcomplicate Filipino food or try to make it somewhat "fusion," which I really appreciate. They just make the dishes and do it really really well. It's a hidden gem that I hope gets more recognition! The owners are Kapampangan and iykyk that means the food is gonna be bussin'. There is a lot of seating inside, and you pick up your food at the counter when it's ready. The inside has a lot of windows, so lots of natural light. There is ample parking on the streets and in a small lot next to the building.

Saw this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try since it is walking distance from the apartment. The worker was very nice and recommended that I try the Sisig with Java rice. I decided to add a fried egg on top, which I thought was a great addition. Personally I thought the Sisig lacked flavor. I wish they had options to add more spice to it. The Java rice was fine. The BBQ pork and beef looked a lot more appetizing, and I wish I went with those instead of listening to the recommendation. I will be back eventually to try the bbq instead of the Sisig.

We ordered the Arroz Caldo and Sisig. We felt the Arroz Caldo had good flavor but lacked any chicken meat. There was more Chicken livers than anything. Which would be ok, if we were that into chicken livers but we are not. The sisig was ok, I would have like to have tasted a bit more acid in the seasoning of it. Wanted to try this place out, and we did. Just not gonna be eager to try it again.

The chicken is a bit too sweet for my liking but I'm not docking any stars for it because that's a preference. I would have preferred more garlic in the flavors. the Java rice is delicious, but I wish it was served with more gravy - kinda on the super crisp dry side. Apparently I should have tried the Sisig. Overall, I'm not too enthused about paying $20 for chicken and rice, but I guess with inflation and given that it's in downtown LA as opposed to Santa Ana where I think some of the best Filipino food is at. Ultimately you're paying for location. I'm not sure what all the reviews raving about service are about. Service is minimal.

My husband got me to go a BBQ beef platter with Java rice and Okoy. The portions are pretty large. Java rice - tasty and had good flavoring Okoy-- very good - fried but didn't feel too oily. I haven't had Okoy in such a long time. BBQ beef - tasty just a bit on the sweet side. SERVICE: they were already cleaned up and it was near closing, but they still took the order. I know a lot of mom and pops place will close ig business is close, but they still took the order. I was very appreciative and it wasn't dire that I had to have it that day. If you want to try filipino BBQ this is a must try place

Long overdue review. Went here to bring a friend that's visiting from DC. We enjoyed the food, top notch crispy pata with java rice(which made me miss of Aristocrat resto in PH) and lumpia, okoy was so-so or maybe because I'm just used to how my mom makes it. Clean tables and fantastic staffs! Will definitely come back to get my crispy pata fix soon --only thing I didn't like that much is the cleanliness of their comfort room overall it was OK.

Staff was extremely attentive and food was pretty good. Definitely gives a karinderia vibe. Not going to be my go-to but it's close enough to consider when craving Filipino comfort food.

It's a shame I don't come here more. It's gotten better over the past year or so! The red rice is so good. The dessert is a must! Service was great and the food came out quick for pick up. Can't wait to eat here again.

I got the sisig with Java rice, wow the sisig was actually really lovely without it being too oily feel fatty. I finished the whole thing. Lol I do wish there was more serving of the atchara. The Taho was also pretty delish.. the Syrup was the closest I've ever had that reminds me of the Philippines. Next the lumpia was okay.. maybe 6/10 Lastly the Maja Blanca was quiet simple but satisfying! I'll definitely come back and try the other bbq.

Kapampangan style legit Filipino food in Filipinotown. They have the best Sisig in town. Hence their name. I always go here almost every week to try each and every one of their dish. Their Sisig and Bbq chicken marinade is what I use to remember in the Philippines. They have Tamales Kapampangan style too. Authentic taho, chicharon, Maja blanca. Need I say more. Prices are reasonable, actually cheap with regards to the taste Service by Micah is great and impeccable. If I can go here everyday I would. I think I will have a heart attack but not because of the food!!!!

Great Filipino food at reasonable prices And clean place to eat too The best ukoy and maja blanca too Oh and try their halo halo too!

This place is the truth! I got the Sisig with Java rice and it was so good that I wanted to cry. The food only took 5 minutes to be ready The staff was great Cute interior with some nice shady sidewalk seating Bomb portions Unbeatable price Perfect amount of sweetness and spice I could probably go on and on, but honestly just come here lol. Looking forward to trying more on the menu!

Located on Temple in LA is SiSiG. Not a to overwhelming menu, which is a nice change for me. You order at the counter and then they call you when the food is ready for pick up. You can choose to sit anywhere in the restaurant. With the bright yellow walls, it is hard not to miss this restaurant. It has some parking spots around the corner, but it is scarce. Food is good, with the rice and the sisig, along with the BBQ chicken. All flavors are there. For the sisig, I wish we got more of the meat, but overall great quality in the plate.

I hope this business does really well. Their food is really good and reminds me of the Philippines. The crispy pata with spicy suka is on point. Their chicken was perfectly seasoned and juicy. My only complaint would be the small sized cuts. The sisig was also tasty. Servers were really friendly and had good energy.
