    I've never had food from the Philippines before. My son wanted to try this restaurant. From the exterior it looks like a place you'd order at the counter, seat yourself and then grab your food when your number was called. Not at all! What a nice surprise when we walked in! Very pretty inside and we were greeted with warm smiles. Seated right away. I had no idea what to order so my son's gf ordered for us. Food was quite delicious. Server family style. In my opinion, it was expensive. We ordered an appetizer, bowl of garlic rice and pork belly. No drinks, just water. It was $64. I'm not sure I'd eat there again. But my son and his gf loved the food.

    This place is the closest "sit down/dine in/order off of a legit menu" Filipino spot to my Natomas neighborhood. There aren't any other notable mentions in my hood, so if you want decent Filipino food you're going to drive a little bit.. Fiesta has a cute, modern ambience - you'll feel that as soon as you see the IG worthy floral photo backdrop. The cloth napkins and silverware will let you know you're not at a typical "to-go" Filipino spot. Lechon Kawali: to no fault of Fiesta's but lechon just isn't the same without the Mang Tomas sauce! (prohibited from being imported right now) vinegar will have to do.. Pancit Sotanghon: Good Beef Mechado: different presentation than I'm used to but beef was tender and taste was rich. Halo/Halo: perfect way to end your meal, share one because it's plenty. Thank you for not cutting corners and making sure to add some leche flan. Prices are decent, portions are more than enough for 2, perfect for family style dining.

    The quality of food is better than any Pinoy restaurant I've tasted in the county. You can taste the freshness of ingredients and that it was not just reheated. The flavors and textures were authentic, not too runny or dry, that you could tell the chef knew authentic Pinoy cooking. The service was great. She gave us enough info on the dishes we asked about and suggested tactfully. Responded to our needs in timely manner. The ambiance was great. It was not over the top with decoration and the plates and utensils, plus the platings of food look classy. I love this restaurant and I'm hoping it lasts for many years. Having said that, I feel that they should evaluate their pricing, cuz I think that the dishes are a bit pricey. I believe, you will get a lot more customers that would keep coming back if the prices were lowered.

    Took my family here as I've tried it in the past with some friends when they had just opened and it was delicious. This time the adobo was a salty. But good with a white rice. Was served a large serving of pancit bihon, but it was flavorless. The slice of lemon helped, but would have been nice to have more than one slice of lemon on the serving plate. The pork sisig with egg was oily, but tasty. However, we had to ask our server if it was still coming out. We were nearly done with our dinner before it came out. Egg that topped the sisig was overcooked too. The garlic rice was cooked perfect. Very cute decor inside. We came before the dinner rush and were immediately seated. Tables are a bit tiny considering most dishes here are family style. Upon ordering we waited about 45 minutes before majority of our food started coming out. We overheard the family behind us were waiting over an hour for all their dishes to arrive and were full from waiting, lol. Plenty of parking. Maybe I ordered the wrong stuff this time around? Idk. Open to give it another try in the future though.

    Recently came for a family lunch and was excited for Filipino food. Restaurant is pretty big to accommodate to a big party, although their service was on the slower side. We felt like we waited awhile for our food to come out. Our aunties had to keep following up on our food because it took awhile. Once the food came out, it was delicious. No complaints on the food other than it being long. We plan on visiting again, maybe pre-ordering or coming in a smaller group.

    My favorite place for Filipino food! Whenever I am in sac visiting my daughter I always come here. Better kare kare and dinuguan than her family makes (sshhh).

    Plenty of picture locations if you plan on hosting an event at the restaurant

    We just had a party at Fiesta and we all had a great time! Cat was an amazing owner and made sure we had everything we needed to feel comfortable. We had special food accommodations we needed to make (my family doesn't eat pork) and the chef modified the ingredients so everyone was able to eat. The service was great too. Our hostess, Hillary, was accomodating and for a party of 70+ was always attentive. All the workers were so nice to us and our guests. We're sure this will be the first of many events we'll have. We're already planning on using them for another catering event in the future :)

    Great place to get your Filipino food fix in Rancho Cordova. I really liked the decor and the staff were really friendly and attentive. We went with the Shanghai Lumpia to start. I really wanted to try their Beef Mechado but they were all out. Our back up plan was the Pork Adobo and we also ordered the Pancit Palabok. Looking forward to coming back to try other dishes!

    If you want a taste of home then this is the place to be. The crispy pata was to die for, Kare-Kare is spot on and the halo-halo is really mouth watering. Service and staff are great, owners were really nice and treated our group like royalty! On our second visit CaMi band was performing live and we didn't even need to pay for entrance, 2 Filipino experience for the price of one. We'll be coming here not just for occasions but every time we crave Filipino food!

    We had no idea this place was here since 2022! Only regret is that we wish we found them sooner! All of our dishes in the photos were super delish! Very generous portions, sooo flavorful and served hot! Very nice dining room, so clean and lots of tables! Staff very friendly and polite. We had so much to eat that we needed to pack up the leftovers and indulged once more the next night for our dinner! The menu is quite extensive. I'm pretty sure most common and popular dishes are offered. We will definitely be returning to try new and favorite dishes!!

    Clean restaurant, friendly staff, OK food. We dined in their dining room and waited for the food was 25 minutes. Not bad. We ordered shanghai lumpia, pork sisig, squash with long beans, shrimp and coconut. Shanghai lumpia: OK. Seemed a little dry to me. Pork Sisig: OK. I was missing the different textures and crunchiness that I have tasted from other pork sisig recipes. Presentation was nice but taste was a little lacking. Squash with long beans, shrimp and coconut: Good. I wish it had some pork in there.

    Went here last saturday because its my Grandmothers birthday and she really wants some Filipino Food. It a little bit far from us but we still went here to have some lunch. The place is great but as soon as we arrived they said its an hour wait. I paused and think if it is worth it to wait that long but we drove 25mins to get here and my grandmother is really looking forward to it. The cripy pata is good, dinuguan and pinakbet which is my grandmom's favorite of all. Disappointed with sisig and pancit palabok. Not so good to be honest. We waited aroung 40mins for our order. We assume that they have some party with the other side of the resto thats why it took for them to prepare for the orders but still they should've plan that ahead of time. The serving is big and good portion. I dont think Ill go here again next time.

    Pork Sisig with Egg
    Robin V.

    I really hate to leave a bad review, especially when it comes to supporting Filipino restaurants, but I was very disappointed with the pork sisig I got from Fiesta Philippines. I paid almost $19 for a portion that was shockingly small--it honestly felt like a rip-off for the price. Beyond the portion size, the flavor just didn't deliver. The sisig was incredibly mild, lacking that bold, savory, slightly tangy taste you usually expect--especially from Kapampangan-style sisig. There was no lemon or calamansi included, which is typically a standard accompaniment. It just felt bland and uninspired. I wanted to like it, and I really hoped to find a go-to place for sisig, but this just wasn't it. Am I going to give it another shot? Probably not.

The lechon, chicken adobo, and pancit really make this place feel extra special and local.

When Rosa sold the restaurant (formerly El Papagayo), she didn't take the decision lightly. Her dedication to quality, and respect for her loyal vegan clientele needed to be preserved.

As of this post, the current special is the Palo Tallow, flavorful fried rice featuring thinly sliced, sweet and savory Chinese sausage, topped with an omelet for added protein.

Customer Service: 0/10 It was our first time here, and the staff did not greet us when we walked in. We ordered our food from a kiosk, and the young Asian lady working didn't even inform us that there was self-serve water or where to find to-go boxes; we had to figure it out ourselves and go ask. Worse, she completely ignored my daughter when she tried to ask a question, literally trying to make herself look busy even though she knew my daughter was speaking to her. During our meal, we noticed that while she completely ignored us, she actively greeted and thanked the other customers who came in after us.

It is incredibly disappointing to see an employee be so selective about who they want to greet and provide decent customer service to.

Professionalism and basic courtesy seem entirely missing here. Please do better. Food Review: * Cucumber Salad: Had no flavor. It was basically just sliced cucumber tossed with some sesame oil. I love cucumber salad, so this was a major disappointment. Rate: 0/10 * Chili Wonton: Super plain with literally no flavor. I love chili wontons, and these were completely tasteless. Imagine eating wontons with absolutely no seasoning. Rate: 0/10 * Chow Mein: This was okay--probably the best dish out of everything we ordered. Rate: 3/10 * Black & Gold Molten Lava Bun: It looked interesting with a sweet, glittering liquid gold filling inside, but it wasn't as good as it looked. While the bun was soft, the filling fell short. Rate: 2/10 * Shrimp & Pork Shaomai: Just okay. We've had much better elsewhere. The outside wraps were dried out and chewy. Rate: 3/10 Would I come again or recommend anyone who happens to be nearby: No. Go somewhere else.

    Shoutout to Folsom, CA. Kabayan!…read more This is a super worthy shout out. Kabayan is Filipino casual counter service eatery serving up some darn tasty food. I'm not well versed in Filipino cuisine, but I got working tastebuds and I like what I like. I meandered into the eatery on a recent weekend mid-afternoon. The tables were filled with happy folks enjoying their meals with a line of folks waiting for an open table; that's always a good indicator. I decided to order to go. The owner was cashiering. She was super helpful and engaging. Big smile. I ordered the two item combo $13.99 that comes with rice and pancit. The pancit was classic with all the familiar flavors. Ginisang Pusit. Squid. Soooo good! I never had this dish before. The squid was super tender, not mushy nor rubbery. Perfect tenderness... how did they do that?!? It had a sweetness and slight spiciness. Spiciness without the heat, but packing a bunch of flavor. I'm still thinking about that dish. Pork Kare Kare. It was served with a side of fermented shrimp paste. Not a lot of restaurants provide that shrimp paste, so I was stoked even if it was a smallish portion. The paste was a perfect compliment of saltiness to the creamy peanut butter sauce. Yup, PB gravy sauce. They also sell imported Filipino packaged snacks and pantry items. Plus they sell halo halo. I saw folks with gorgeously delicious looking halo halo. Colorful layers of shaved ice, ice cream, and toppings. The eatery is not particular large, so when it's a full house, it gets crowded cozy.

    This place has been open about a year now and while I go to the Vietnamese restaurant in the same…read moreplaza often, this was my first visit. There's plenty of parking spots as it's in the same plaza as Raleys. It's a smaller shop that poses as a restaurant on one side and a small market filled with Filipino snacks on the other. There's not much for ambience, but it's clean and cozy. The owner served me, and she was super warm and friendly and very welcoming. I had questions about the food and their menu and she was very patient going through all of them. She introduced me to pitchi pitchi which is a sweet and salty cassava dessert that reminds me of mochi. The cheese threw me off a little, but I read that sometimes it's served with coconut flakes. I ordered two halo halo desserts, two combos, the cassava dessert, upgraded the rice to garlic rice, two orders of lumpia, and picked up a couple of calamansi drinks and garlic peanuts as a snick snack. Total bill plus tip was over $100. The menu changes every day, which I think is interesting. And every Sunday they serve lechon for $18 a pound. Check out their Facebook page for updates in case I got this information wrong. For the food, I had half pancit and half rice. I had adobo chicken, butter chicken, and two pork dishes that I don't remember the name. I like that the pork had a good combo of fat and lean meats. I wish I could've eaten it there but we had lunch and then decided to stop here. I felt like the food being warmed up after sitting in the fridge for a bit, It kind of made all of the entrées taste similar to each other. Next time I will vary my order, like I'll get a saucey dish, a sour soup, and a bbq skewer. All in all the food tasted very homey and delicious. It's heavily seasoned. I can see myself ordering lumpia and pancit to a party. Can't wait to go back and try their lechon and pork belly.

    Was super excited to try this spot given the raving reviews and high star count... and left rather…read moredisappointed, unfortunately. Food is great, don't get me wrong. But for the same price, we can get so much more at places like Oriental Market and just as delicious to satisfy our craving for Filipino food. Parking was easy with plenty of spaces out front, service was great and friendly. Seating space? Extremely limited, especially if you have a party of 5 or more. Best to order for takeout food which brings me to my main point - if I have to order Filipino takeout because of extremely limited seating, I'd rather simply get a la carte elsewhere and pay a lot less or hit up Rocklin area where there are restaurants that serve fantastic boba drinks with fantastic Filipino dishes for much more affordable prices! Is the food incredible? Yes! Will it satisfy your craving for Filipino food? Absolutely! Would I return? No, I wouldn't, to be perfectly honest. Regardless, I feel it's worth a try if you haven't yet but just be mindful of the highs and lows. It's not all great, but it's not all bad. Mediocre and average, at the very least, given all factors. Do I have high expectations of Filipino restaurants? You bet I do!

    It's hard to find decent Filipino food, especially in this area. I would definitely suggest this…read morespot if you're ever in the mood for something that tastes like home. The space is small, so seating is also pretty limited. You order at the counter, take a seat, and they'll call you up once your food is ready.
