    Lechon
    Benedict P.

    This place was great! Masarap ang mga Lechon dito! I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and families if they have any special events and maybe during Christmas and the New Years. The Lechon was very delicious and tasty, it just hit the spot right in your belly. The service was great! Was quick and efficient. The staff were very friendly and helpful when transporting the Lechon to your vehicle. Th ambiance was nice and small but still an amazing place to come and order yourself some Lechon. Maraming salamat po to all the staffs and for all their hard work making the Lechon. Salamat po!

    Amazing super tender meat sauce perfect balance, and they have different kind of rice fluffy n great with the lechoni give 10 star

    Large piggie

    The only reason why I know about this spot is because of my friend.. he wanted a roasted pig for Christmas. We was able to order the pig a couple days before and pay for it the day of pick up. You have to call ahead because they are a catering business and all of their roasted pig whole or half was sold out. The place was easy to find and the lady over the phone was super nice. They take cash only so please remember that. After paying my pig was being brought out and the guy walked it to my car, which is a nice touch. It smelled so good and I can tell it was seasoned perfectly. Now this is our Christmas tradition get a roast pig ! Now I'm excited. The place was so cute full of pig decor, no indoor dinning but you can get the feel of the place when you walk in. We will be back hands down, the drive was worth it and I will come again.

    I don't usually post reviews, but im totally disappointed with their lechon. Please see attached photos (i took these photos as soon as i opened and tasted the food) . I got so excited to order since it has been a while since i've eaten filipino style lechon... but to me, this is the worst looking and tasting lechon. Pork's skin is so old, not crispy at all, looks and tastes like it was cooked days ago... so unfresh and the meat is nasty and dry. So disappointed.. nothing like filipino's original lechon. So sorry for this review but this is an honest one...

    A hidden gem in Ktown! I ordered the 10$ plate and it was fresh and so savory. Exactly what I've been craving but have to put of town to hunt down. The owner was super friendly and sweet, and explained the details to the menu. It was my first time and she offered me a free sauce ( we all know this meal is made better bc if it) making my experience even more memorable. I didn't know they sell the full size pig as well for events!!! Small business owners whose been here over 40 years! Come support this cozy, delicious and adorable spot in the heart of LA.

    Worst place to order. We ordered the 1/4 lechon and we deposited $20. The pick up was 11/6/22 @11am. We we went to the LA store, took us more than an 1hr to get there. The store was closed and I called the number. They told me I did not confirm the day before the pick-up(which they did not even mention to us). So, long story short. We wasted our day and until now. We haven't received our deposit of $20! Is this how they run their business?! It is not hard to refund the $20. I will update again later today.

    The worst lechon. Dry and it doesn't look fresh at all. I don't know if it's just one off but seeing the past reviews kind of validate this feedback. Please see attached photos for everyone's reference.

It's in quite a busy area and parking can be a little bit tricky but it's totally worth the stop. However, it is a very small place so seating is limited, and definitely don't plan on bringing a large group because it's cramped as it is, and no outdoor seating available. We came about an hour before closing on Friday, so luckily it wasn't crazy busy but they only have one lower regular height table, which is actually a handicap designated table, so the higher bar seating isn't super ideal for kids or elderly. Other than that if you want to just do takeout, I saw a lot of people doing that. It was hard to make a choice here because of all the delicious things on the menu, but we were super happy with what we got. The lechon sisig was the perfect amount of heat, and loved the poached egg added on top, definitely worth the extra cost. We also got the longsilog, which was a delicious plate of food. The sausage was cooked perfectly, and it was so juicy and flavorful, our kids devoured all of it! The salad and the pickled achara was so refreshing and really completed the dish. Even the lumpia and the house chili sauce didn't disappoint either. The presentation was definitely all there. Service was awesome as well. My only complaint is that they were out of the calamansi hibiscus drink so I wasn't able to try it, but I guess that just means I have to come back again when I'm in the area!

As soon as you walk in, you'll notice how bright and welcoming it is. I loved how they maximize the natural sunlight--it makes the whole place feel warm and homey. I added a photo so you guys can see! Now onto the best part--the food! Trying the chami was one of the main reasons I wanted to check this restaurant out, and it did not disappoint. It was sweet and savory, although I was personally looking for a little more of that spicy kick since that's how I know chami to taste--sweet, savory, with just enough spice to balance out the sweetness. We also tried the hiramasa collar, which was really good. I believe it was marinated in a soy sauce-based mixture. It was a little salty for my taste, but still enjoyable. But the highlight for me was definitely the Lucenachon! It had such a unique take on lechon and was incredibly juicy and tender. I especially loved the marinade--it gave the meat so much flavor. Overall, I would definitely come back and try more dishes! P.S. Just a heads-up: street parking only.

    The Kare Kare from Spoon & Pork is nothing short of a warm, comforting hug in a bowl…read more When the dish arrived at my table, I was immediately drawn to its rich, golden peanut sauce -- smooth and fragrant, with a roasted nuttiness that made my mouth water before I even took a bite. Nestled in the sauce were vibrant, perfectly cooked vegetables: tender bok choy, slightly charred green beans, and slices of eggplant that had soaked up all the savory depth of the stew. At the heart of the dish lay generous chunks of beef -- fork-tender, deeply flavored, with just enough fat to melt into the sauce and give it that rich, silky mouthfeel Kare Kare is known for. Sprinkled over the top were crunchy bits, adding a satisfying contrast to every spoonful. Of course, the small side of bagoong (fermented shrimp paste) was essential -- a modest dollop transformed each bite, balancing the sweetness and creaminess of the peanut sauce with a punch of briny intensity. Paired with steaming garlic rice, every scoop felt like the perfect blend of textures and flavors, a true homage to the Filipino classic. Eating Spoon & Pork's Kare Kare felt both nostalgic and elevated -- the heart and soul of a traditional comfort food presented with an eye for freshness and balance. It's the kind of dish that makes you slow down, savor each bite, and immediately start planning your next visit.

    4.5 stars. Sorry,…read moreguys - I'm still catching up on my reviews and am kicking myself for failing to write this before Spoon & Pork permanently shut its doors. This was an unforgettable eatery. During our trip to Los Angeles in May, 2023, Wendell invited Jay, Z and me to meet up with Veda and him for a late lunch at 2 PM at one of their favourite Filipino restaurants, Spoon & Pork, on Sunday, the 7th. Spoon & Pork, which originated as a food truck, was a restaurant that specialized in Filipino comfort food with a contemporary twist. They offered a fresh, inventive fusion of the flavours of the Philippines with modern sophistication. Nestled in the vibrant heart of Los Angeles' Silver Lake neighbourhood, Spoon & Pork was a cozy boutique eatery on bustling Sunset Boulevard that greeted guests with a neon pig sign at their front entrance. No private lot on this busy street, so finding nearby parking was a bit challenging and although the charming spot offered both indoor and al fresco dining, seating was also limited. The tropical-inspired dining room with warm wood accents created an effortlessly cool and relaxed atmosphere that felt both modern and rooted in tradition. Upon entry, guests were welcomed by the aroma of sizzling meats and fragrant spices which alluded to the culinary journeys to come. The food at Spoon & Pork wasn't exactly what one's nanay (mom) or lola (grandma) would cook. Celebrating fresh takes on the richness of Filipino cuisine, the menu was an invitation to indulge in unexpected, compelling twists on a thoughtfully curated selection of traditional dishes, infusing familiar flavours into new forms. Below are what we ordered: beef tapa ($25) - MASARAP (DELICIOUS)! Of all the dishes that we ordered, this was the winner of them all as the succulent meat packed a punch of flavour. adobo tofu ($14) - One of Wendell's regular orders, this notable plant-based option, was a tasty, innovative take on the Philippine classic that balanced tradition with modern creativity. laing ($9) - From their platito, small plates section, this bowl of coconut braised taro leaves was rich and creamy deliciousness, but, yes, mini in portion size. garlic rice ($4/$7) - Ordering the garlic rice over plain jasmine rice was a no brainer. Thoroughly infused with the savouriness of the many bits of garlic, this rice perfectly paired with all of the other dishes. bistek ($28) - The skirt steak was very tender and the sauce perfectly balanced the tanginess from the calamansi juice with the savoury soy sauce. lechon kawali ($23) - Another reimagined classic dish featuring crispy, golden pork belly with crunchy skin and tender, flavourful meat inside. The dish was complemented by a tangy, pickled red cabbage that enhanced the crispy texture and added a refreshing contrast. This mastery of flavour and texture tickled Z's tastebuds and won him over. Before this day, Z was never a fan of Filipino food. Everything tasted boldly rich and every bit intensely intoxicated our taste buds. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive. What a remarkably epicurean feast and delightful experience we enjoyed! We're super bummed that Spoon & Pork permanently closed shoppe. Z and I were hoping to return for another tasty meal. Truly, a worthy spot this place was to hit up for an impressively creative taste of the Philippines in Los Angeles.
