So happy to see there was a filipino food option in Bend! I ordered the pork adobo and the lumpia. Also wanted to try the loco moko. As a filipino, I have to say I'm very happy with the amount of rice I got with my orders. The lumpia was really good! Nice and crispy with good flavors and filling. The pork adobo and loco moko was also good and I had enough leftovers for breakfast. I prefer a little more sauce with my adobo, but that's purely personal preference. The flavors were there. Service was very friendly. He stated they made everything fresh, so there was a little wait, but not bad at all. read more

Island Brothers Food Truck at Bridge 99 is THE spot for a drink and great meal. I got the teriyaki chicken with a fried egg on the side. It also comes with roughly 3 cups of rice! The portions are huge!! I ordered around an hour before close and the chef made up a fresh batch for myself and friend. And the flavor was excellent! The chicken was tender and perfectly sauced, and breaking the yolk over some rice added a nice savory touch. I ate half while enjoying a drink inside Bridge 99 and saved the rest for lunch the next day. Great food! Generous portions! And a perfect spot to relax in Bend! read more

Ordered from DoorDash. Haven't had anything from this place in a while and was very excited to have some authentic Pork Adobo (ordered it with extra meat). It was very disappointing. It tasted "okay", but really not what I had previously. The sticky chicken was fire though. I'd give it another shot sometime. read more

Updating my review. I finally tried teriyaki chicken. It was really bad. It tasted dry, like it was sitting in a crock pot the whole day. The mac salad isn't my fave but not bad. I still think their salt and pepper chicken is delicious and would still come back for that. read more

The menus via Yelp and google I was told were incorrect when I called. I was directed to Door dash and made an easy pick up order. Awesome sticky chicken and tasty tender kalua pork. Rice was nicely cooked. Lumpia was great. The veggies side was cabbage, onion & carrot sliver combo was a nice addition to the rice and meat forkful. The four of us hated the Mac salad. Idk if this was an off batch but someone described it as gritty then we realized it may have had tuna in it. Pretty dry with zero flavor. Sorry but had to mention it as we ordered extra since Mac salad is typically a win. Thankfully the rest of the meal was very tasty. read more

Nice little food truck that is currently parked outside of Bridge 99 brewery. It's a food truck so the ambiance is Bridge 99. Excellent, try the Bog Trotter! The food is good. I have lived on both Guam and Hawaii, so I know a bit about Filipino/Hawaiian food. Let's start with the pancit. Only on weekends, boo! Sell it every day, it's noodles. It tastes good but it is not as good as the real, island style pancit that I have had. I am not sure why but I don't think the noodles are freshly made and there is just something missing in the seasoning. Lumpia are legit, get 'em. The adobe and kalua pork are also standouts. Definitely ask for the grilled veggies on the side. They are not particularly traditional either, but you won't regret it. Other dishes that I have tried are tasty and I don't have any real complaints. The staff are helpful and courteous and the food while not entirely authentic is delicious. Definitely worth a stop. read more
