$15 for lechon and same for kare Kare. Both were delicious. Food came out hot. I was the only customer for lunch. Hope this place has better business than the day I was there cause I want to go back. read more

My go to spot for filipino food when I'm in Long Island. Ordered some to go food for thanksgiving. They usually have a lot of options but since we didn't pre-order, we just got kaldereta and pancit. I usually order their pork adobo, lumpia, and BBQ, those are my favorites when I come here. Staff and service is always great. I'll have to come back when it's not a holiday. read more

My friend and I met up for lunch at Guiradelco and honestly, this store reminded me of California. I've been craving Filipino food for years now and I'm glad my friend told me about this place. You order your food and you can either take it home with you or just sit down in the back and enjoy it. We were able to pay after we finished our meal. I missed chicken adobo so I ordered that! Wow oh wow!! It was amazing and definitely hit the spot. We also ordered the bbq pork skewers (I'm sorry, I don't know the name of it) but they were so good I ordered extra for home! The service was nice. The gentleman behind the hot food bar was very friendly and thoughtful. He gave us our food in the plastic containers so we can take our leftovers home. The woman working behind the register was also very nice. I can't wait to go back for a visit again! read more

My friend and I came here for dinner and it's definitely a quiet little shop and very unassuming but overall the owner and workers were very kind and served us quickly. The food was pretty good as well! A highlight was the halo halo, this was my first time trying this dessert and it is definitely unique and very fun! I haven't tried any other Filipino cuisine around here before so would love to do so but this place is definitely something to check out if interested! read more

Guiradelco - Halo halo - Filipino Near Me - Westbury, New York

This place will rip you off. I went here because my Filipino friend wanted me to help her buy sisig. They charged us a higher price of a large container but did not fill the container up. Poor and rude customer service. Rather go to Philippines best in Hicksville. Trust what other reviews said regarding dishonesty. read more

A good friend of mine told me about this hole in a wall spot in Long Island. This place is located in a parking lot behind a Tex-Mex place. At the entrance of place, there is a tiny supermarket and a buffet style where you can order freshly made meals. There are no combo meals except for breakfast on the weekends. We ordered the breakfast combo of longsilog, two fried eggs, and fried rice for $10. I also ordered a BBQ pork skewer for $3.50. The skewer was very good and worth the $3.50. The breakfast combo could be better if they had the option of garlic rice or fried rice. The longanisa was pretty good. I also ordered a pakbet to go but I was impressed. I also ordered ube turon, and that was good and not messy. I'd definitely return to check out more items. I'll inquire if they open on Thanksgiving or Christmas because it would be worth the trip to pick up items for a potluck. read more

Guiradelco - Longsilog and BBQ pork skewer - Filipino Near Me - Westbury, New York

So glad I found this Filipino place in westbury. So close to home and do not need to drive to East meadow. You walk in and you order and then you can take it to go or there is a back area where you can eat and a small area in the front for snacks. All the food is already made so it's so quick to grab something on the go! My usual dishes here: Beef menudo, kare kare, pork sinigang, halo halo. I wish they had grilled pork but they don't. Sometimes they don't always have the same dishes every time you go so it's possible they swap back and forth. read more

I hate hate placing ine star on small businesses BUT THE OWNER/CASHIER IS A THIEF. We ate there as a family of three (hubs and infant). We had two meals, two rice, and ONE SODA. Owner charged THREE SODAS AND THREE RICE. She does this ALL THE TIME, bec who really meticulously looks at receipts, right?? BEWARE, ALWAYS CHECK WHAT THE LADY CASHIER CHARGES. Attached is photo of the receipt read more

Been going here for over two decades and will continue to go here. Since it's halo halo season definitely try that out. I usually get bbq and lumpia sariwa but it's only available on the weekends. The staff is always nice, especially Emma. It's a cute place and has parking! read more

Some turo-turo food (you point (turo) your pick/s) and others made to order. No combos though. Get your food first, in pint or quart containers - priced by container size and whether it's a meat or vegetable dish. Table seating so add rice then eat. Mungo is ok. Pinakbet looked good with the mix of veggies, shrimp and some pork belly but our container was lacking squash. Binagoongan had some fatty pieces. Not salty cooking. Has a parking lot. read more

Would highly recommend this Filipino restaurant!! The food is absolutely DELICIOUS. Everything is so fresh. They have a wide variety of food. The service is always great. Everyone that works here are very friendly, especially the owner. Also very clean. Once Again, this place is a must visit to everyone! read more

Been coming here with my family for many many years for dine-in, takeout and grocery. My favorite Filipino food on Long Island. Warm, caring and accomodating staff, great food and good grocery/snack selections. Can order ahead special requests and also catering trays for parties to go. Order in advance for major holidays. On the weekends there are more premium Filipino dishes and also silog breakfast combos. Everything tastes home made. The desserts are great too. I send people here in the summer for halo-halo cravings read more

Guiradelco - Weekend breakfast menu - Filipino Near Me - Westbury, New York

I think this filipino spot has the best selection and price of all the filipino food restaurants on the island. It's always impeccably clean. The service is great. Very friendly and helpful. I think if you are weary about trying filipino food, this is the place to get your footing. The food looks approachable. The have clear labels on what the food is. And it is always fresh. I come here on the weekends to pick up filipino bbq, which is an absolute MUST have. Both the pork and chicken bbq are so delicious. Whenever my brother is in town from the Philippines, he always wants to come here to pick up the bbq particularly. The food store is small but has the common wants. Plus they are priced just right in comparison to other places. For some reason these place doesn't show up whenever you're trying to look up filipino places in long island, which is weird considering it's one of the OG filipino spots. It's truly a hidden gem and shouldn't be slept on. read more

First off I am Filipino and wished this review was better. We came here a couple of times. First time we came our experience was ok. But pleasant. Food was decent and close to home. Don't know of any other Filipino restaurants around this place. That all changed when we brought our son. He was around 2 years old. He was curious and walking around and checking things out. I was walking around showing around and my wife was picking out our food. The servers behind the counter looked very annoyed and almost didn't want to serve us because of my son. At first we thought they were just having a bad day, but they treated the other customers differently. Then they told us to pick a table and wait our food. At that point the waiter came to serve us the food we picked out at the counter. He also was annoyed. We felt very uncomfortable. The whole time we talked about while we ate was that this will be our last time coming here. So unfortunate because my wife loves filipino food. Towards the end the waiter softened up, but it was too late. We made up our minds and we would never come back ever again. read more

Before COVID-19: This place brings so much memories. My family and I have been going here for decades after mass in Queens and take a few minutes drive into Westbury, Long Island for lunch. It's a favorite of my parents, especially to eat with relatives or friends who want comfort food and this is it. This is definitely a no-frills, small mom-and-pop. It feels like a homey Filipino restaurant when coming here... The interior is dated and decorated with paintings of the Philippines. Most of the patrons eating here are Filipinos from around or living in the city. It's part grocery store and part restaurant. There are several table seating for parties to dine-in. Guiradelco is also a turo turo restaurant: a point what you want, cafeteria style place. They also have a menu up top but the food in front changes everytime we come. The staples are always there though and one that we always order is the kaldereta! Their goat kaldereta is my favorite. The meat is super tender and the dish is super saucey. I love taking the sauce and adding it onto my rice like a curry because it's just that good! Of course, in breakfast or brunch time, we get some silogs, my favorite being tocino. Overall, I also grew up on their food. I can't think of a bad experience. I'm always left full and satisfied. It gets really sunny inside as well. The location is a bit strange where you have to drive behind a building into a parking lot to see the strip of businesses. The owner is super nice and loves talking to her regulars. Also note they do affordable catering here! We usually order ahead of time for New Years Eve party and is always a hit. Bathroom available. Accepts cash and card. Don't forget to check out the grocery in back! They have all the goodies to take home after being really full of Halo Halo... I usually end up with some Chippy and Jack n Jill with a side of calamansi juice. My mom likes getting bags of pandesal to-go. Mangaon ta! read more

A combination of a small ethnic market with a cafeteria style restaurant further inside. I made a catering order here and it was a simple process. The food was ready for pickup at the time requested. The lumpia was good and was easy to eat even without sauce. The lechon we got was very crispy but a bit dry. However, the flavor was good and our guests still enjoyed everything. Will be back to try some of the other menu items. read more

A neighborhood staple that includes a restaurant and grocery store. Everyone there is super nice and the food is always delicious. My favorite is the crispy pata, which I would recommend calling in ahead on a busy weekend or holiday because those are popular and may need additional time (15-20min). It's clean, spacious and no frills kind of eat in place, perfect for casual dinners. Dessert selection is A plus. read more

Guiradelco is a Filipino store/restaurant that I was told hasn't been dine-in since pre-pandemic days. But you can still enjoy a taste of the Philippines from this place! You enter and there are Filipino baked goods and canned items from the Philippines. Further in, to the left, is a selection of prepared dishes of the Philippines. Employees are very courteous. The ginataang, a dish with squash, shrimp, peppers, green beans, and ginger in coconut milk, is rich and creamy, with a bit of a kick from the peppercorn. I like it with some brown rice (not purchased from Guiradelco - don't believe they sell it). Also a fan of the beef empanada - I recommend it with some hot sauce/Tabasco sauce, if you like spicy. :) And the fish escabeche is so yummy - I recommend asking the server to pour a little extra sauce on the fish when you order it...it's sweet and sour goodness! read more

We are on our way to visit our friends in Long Island which we miss a lot since this pandemic erupted and thought of bringing over some Filipino food to share with them. The food here has the authentic taste and highly recommend. The portion of the chicken bbq was bigger than the usual as compared to other similar Filipino stores. IMHO, the chicken adobo recipw has a different twist to it and must be from a specific region back home. I just prefer the Tagalog adobo. Still, this place is a must try for those whom are not familiar or are adventurous to try a new dish from Asia. read more

Food is always good. Very good variety. It's a turo-turo Self Service place with a grocery attached to it. They also have special order items like Crispy Pata, Lechong Kawali, Lumpiang Shanghai, etc. They are always friendly and very accommodating to everybody (both Filipinos and non-Filipinos alike). Love their Halo-halo too! Our go-to Filipino place in Long Island. read more

They have the best food ever, service is good. :) Their Shanghai Lumpia is also really good

An ordinary little place for yummy Filipino food. Don't expect fancy atmosphere, the focus is good food, lots of variety. Have to get there early for the pancit palabok & barbeque, they're always out. Halo-halo & Taho are my favorite deserts. Attached is a little store where one can get filipino snacks, hygiene care & stuff that we enjoyed using back home. Parking is adequate. Glad i found this place! read more

My family has been going to Guiradelco for 20yrs. Since the place sold the food has been so bad. The people that work there do not know how to cook Filipino food. All the staff changed and the new staff are horrible. Take your money to Kabayan Grill the food is much better. read more

I've been coming here for nearly 25 years, and it's always been consistently good. Taking my kiddies here after visiting my Dad at Holy Rood nearby, it brought me back to going here after mass with my parents. I told my kids stories of what I'd eat: a half kaldereta, a half kare kare, and 3 bowls of rice. My son has memories of coming here when he was a toddler, and the chicken tinola brought him back to those days. Filipino food is like a warm embrace from a good friend. It's not elegant looking, and it's not really 'gram worthy, but it hits the spot and can trigger fond memories. Guiradelco's, to the uninitiated is good homestyle filipino food, without having to travel to Queens and battling for parking in Woodside or Jackson Heights. It's a definite visit when we're in the area. read more

Guiradelco - A: Chicken Tinola B: Beef Mechado C: Beef Oxtail Kare Kare - Filipino Near Me - Westbury, New York

1st review for 2016, now there are not too many filipino restaurants in the Garden City, Westbury and Uniondale area, Guiradelco came up on the radar as I placed a search for Filipino food. The place is located not too far from the LIRR "Post Ave" station. As you travel north on Post Ave from Old Country road the restaurant can be difficult to find since it is off Post Ave and located in a small secluded street with parking right in front of the restaurant. The decor is dated and hosts a small grocery store with mainly canned and dry goods for sale, but I was not here to shop at the grocery store. When you walk in there is already prepared food sitting in heated trays with varieties of your favorite filipino classics like, kare-kare and beef Karedata, and other dishes I can't even begin to pronounce. The kitchen will also prepare items like Shanghai Lumpiang, Lechon Kawali and Crispy Pata to order. We decided on the kare-kare, beef Karedata and ordered the Lechon Kawali. After ordering we seated ourselves in the throwback 70's tables and seats which was cool since style points don't count here, only the food and service matters to me. The person working the front also doubles as our server. Our Kare-Kare and beef Karedata dish arrived on our table right away since it was on the prepared food tray. The Kare-Kare tasted bland as bland can be, even the shrimp paste (Bagoong) wasn't that good and the oxtail did not have much meat. The beef Karedata was tough and chewy. We had to wait almost 20 minutes for the Lechon Kawali to come to our table and we were disappointed. The pork was not crispy or tasty, we surmised that the oil probably did not get to temperature. I did not like the dipping sauce for the Lechon, according to my Filipino bud it should be liver based, but he said it was not even close to what it should taste like. The people were friendly but that alone does not make or will a good meal. Parking was a plus which was the only notable highlight that day. read more

Decided to finally check this place out after hearing some positive reviews from friends and reading all the positive reviews online. Definitely a little tricky to find and the reviews were right that the outside doesn't offer much, but parking right in front is nice. There's a little grocery area where you can find many Filipino snacks and canned goods. On the other side there's prepared food. There wasn't that much of an assortment when we arrived (mid afternoon), but we decided to order some halo halo. Not the best I had, but definitely satisfied the craving. All in all an ok spot, but not too sure why or how it got the reviews it did. Seeing as how it was only slightly closer than driving to Queens to some of our usual spots, we will keep it on the back up list, but likely aren't itching to come back soon. read more

I love the food. The people working there are very friendly. But sometimes they run out of my favorite's pretty quick. I highly recommend the food for take out because they have limited dining space which is not that attractive. read more

Good food and great family owned business. Nice to have the shopping area also. Service is excellent!

Never been to this place for a long time until today if not for an emergency need to bring a dish in the office. The dining place looks old to me ( I was here just to pick up my order btw) but their food based on the one I have ordered is still one of the best in town ( Long Island). The Lumpiang Shanghai is a hit in the office. Can't believe that inside these petite spring rolls are just a mix combo of pork and celery. I am thinking there were tidbits of onions and carrots that go with it. The reviews of my co- workers who have tried it for the first time are surprisingly good in all aspects. The pricing is affordable and economical to its serving portion. Actually their price was lesser to what my caterer charge. I may continue to use their service in the future catering needs. The place has a grocery store inside. Lots of childhood snacks that I am surely missing are available for purchase. Too bad I am in a hurry to meet our luncheon party time. What I like most was how they entertained my order on a last minute placement. I was grateful to Dan who picked up the call at 7 am and have my order ready on time. The location is hard to find. I missed it twice. As it is located in the rear, the right entry to the restaurant is confusing. Their parking lot comes handy. read more

After a trek through IKEA, we were craving some comfort food on a cloudy, cold day. A quick yelp searched pointed us to this place and I am so glad we took the chance! The entrance takes you into a tiny "marketplace" that has lots of Filipino snacks. M quickly decided we were going to peruse after lunch. You walk to the left and there are hot foods already made. The menu is pretty standard and it seems like the food that's behind the glass plate rotates. The prices were more than fair with the service and amount of food we got! Everything was absolutely delicious and the ladies behind the counter were a joy! There is a small parking lot which is a godsend in NY but it can be easy to miss the entrance. Keep your eyes peeled for a juice place and it's right behind it! Highly recommend if you're in the mood for some delicious Filipino food! read more

Food is precooked and instead of keeping it hot , you get the food that s barely warm - barely warm rice , barely warm pre cooked eggs that just sit there in a pile . the grill that they use is tiny and doesn't grill the meat too well - the barbecued pieces are not barbecued all the way and are barely warm . Barbecued meat covered in some Ketchupy flavored bland sauce . Kidney stew is swimming in bland vegetables including mushrooms from a can . I saw the guy who works in the kitchen bring in Ronzoni pasta and some aweful cheap supermarket pasta sauce to use in cooking 'authentic ' Philippino food The only redeeming point to all this is Dessert that's sold right by the cashier - namely Carioca and Ube Turon. You can skip Halo Halo though . read more

Come with an appropriate level of expectations. This is not fine dining or catered dining. This is a buffet cafeteria with authentic family style filipino food. The food is very flavorful, more on the sweet side, and very affordable for a quick eat. My favorite dish so far... Fresh lumpia Sisig Skewers Pancit read more

This was my first time here. The woman at the register rang up a family and I was next.  I slid my tray in front of her and all of a sudden she picked up her phone and started reading the screen.  She never looked up but I know she knew I was there.  She just kept on reading her screen.  I almost asked "did jesus just text you, what's so interesting?" but I seriously wanted to see how long it would take before she acknowledged me.  I stood there staring at her for 45 seconds.  That's a long time in retail world to be ignored! There were basically no vegetables in the pancit - mostly noodles. And the beef in the Kalderta was very fatty. The bean hopia is good though, thankfully. read more

Filipino on Post Ave? I'm down What to do when you are OVERWHELMED by a new cuisine? ORDER ONE OF EACH. SISIG Never been a liver guy, cubed pieces, lot of texture but no no for me. Even after telling them none of us liked it (virtually untouched) we had to pay for it (would have been nice if they removed that item) LECHON KAWALI Save for the inedible crunchy exterior, this was delicious. Inside pork was oozing of oil and more OIL. Heart attack in a bite bite. (Outside will stick to teeth beware) HALO HALO This was a slushie. Mostly ice ice. Not sweet like other halo halos I've had. Unusually bad. PORK BBQ (SKEWER) Defn get it (Sat/Sun). My friends' favorite item. Best bang for buck. FRIED RICE I mean, its rice. It should be good, and it was. Contains egg. PANCIT Bland bland. Few tables. seems to get packed during weekends. We waited 15min (Saturday ~ 1pm). Our male server was inexplicably rude to us first-timers. Lady at counter shadily rung me up $314.57. God if someone recorded MY FACE. Then rung me up $55 which seemed appropriate.

Good Filipino food, unhygienic food handling I have been to this restaurant for so many times maybe because there's no other better Pinoy restaurants in the area. Since the COVID19 pandemic happened, their workers started using gloves. However, this server has practically not changed her gloves for the 45 minutes while I was waiting for my order. And she was was using it for everything else that she was doing. One of them also does cashiering because the owner/regular cashier was having lunch. She was using the same torn gloves to hold the money or credit cards when preparing the orders. I am wondering what is their idea why gloves have to be used. read more

Best. Filipino. Food. Ever. I don't really know what some of the things I have tried are called, but the staff is so friendly! If I have questions, they're never short tempered or rude.

They also have a cute little market where you can take home frozen lumpia, banana ketchup and sweets, it's delightful! read more
