It's been around two years from the first the signs appeared until the restaurant was open. That's a long time to wait. The first week that they were open, the aroma of the Adobo was so strong that even my nose could notice it. It was an amazing aroma. Every time I stopped in the past, I had already eaten but I was interested since I lived in a house where the owners had Pilipino backgrounds. Me? Hapones po ako. I went the other day, not having eaten, and didn't know what I could eat other than lumpia or pancit. The person behind the counter suggested the Sisig Pork. Of course, I needed rice, and I got something that was a vegetable dish. I also got to try the Ube Lumpia. Now, here is the problem. As a child, I choked on bones a lot, so I avoid them. The sauces were amazing. The pork was good, but I didn't get far with it. I would fail at Lechon 101. The place was clean. I've been to places where I would only eat the packaged food. The people are friendly. The prices are reasonable. I hope that they have big success. read more

JJ's Asian Cuisine - Sisig Pork, rice, and vegetables - Filipino Near Me - Manteca, California

Me and cousin went in to try this place looked good. I got 2 item with loganisa and beef dish with pandit. Food was goid but pretty greedy only few pieces of beef and 2 sausage for 14.99 plus tax. Beef dish was really greasy too. My cousin got some veggies that had crab or something was really fishy. She ordered a halo halo and mostly ice for $10 not very flavorful or sweet either rice Krispy was stale. After that I see some Filipino folks come in and they were piling their food like really why they get more how insulting. Won't go back waste of money read more

Service: Quite helpful. Any questions will knowingly be answered by people up front, and would refer to one of the sisters ( J&J ) if they need further information. Food : Lived 17 years in the Bay area, live in Manteca almost 26 years now. Talked to one of their owners and asked why their food is so good. She said they didn't compromise their home cooking, unlike other places who commercialized it for others by holding back on ingredients. In other words, authentic. Ambiance: I'll give it an A. You're there to eat, and those TVs keep you entertained while enjoying your meal. read more

Unfortunately, this establishment failed to fulfill our expectations. The customer service is extremely pleasant, kind, and friendly. We are delighted that a new business has opened in Manteca. For us, the food was very bland. We tried their breakfast and lunch options, however they lacked the right amount of flavor. We love the open space, many tables for families to enjoy their meals and even karaoke sessions are a great way to enjoy a good time together! read more

The prices and food were really good and the service was great! We went at around 2pm today and they had just had a large catering order that wiped out several items in the hot counter. They were out of pork adobo and lumpia so I went with chicken adobo and pancit. The pancit was SO good and the chicken adobo had really good soaked in flavor. I'm looking forward to trying their lumpia and lechon (only on saturdays) next time. read more

New Filipino restaurant in Manteca. We missed the grand opening on Saturday 1/17/26 so we decided to check this place out for lunch the next day. They were only serving breakfast at the time we arrived which was around 12pm but they did later on have other dishes out. We ended up ordering 2 bangsilog and longsilog combo plates. The combo plates come with drinks. Overall, great food and service is nice and friendly. We will definitely come back to try out more of their dishes. read more

The Silogs were decent size for the price and you get a drink as well. $15 per plate, comes with meat, 2 fried eggs, 2 scoops garlic rice, a slice of tomato, and a drink (soda, bottled water). There is complimentary coffee, vinegar sauce, banana ketchup, chili oil. Service was friendly and patient, Leo took our order. Also met one of the owners, Joy, sweet lady.

Manteca is fortunate enough to have this new Filipino food spot open. We needed a place that offered Filipino cuisine, and we were in luck! This deli-style establishment has ample parking and seating. Tonight, they had karaoke singing for anyone brave enough to get up and sing. The family-owned business exudes warmth and friendly service. All the food is served deli-style so enjoy picking your dishes, there are plenty of options. I'm happy to say that we now have another local favorite spot. Here's a breakdown of the food: The chicken pancit noodles were flavorful and included pieces of celery, chicken, carrots, and cabbage. The chicken adobo was a hit. The rich sauce and juicy chicken were delicious. Don't forget to ask for the sauce over your steamed rice; you'll thank me later! My favorite dish was the beef machado. It was a savory tomato stew with soy sauce, citrus, and fork-tender beef. The potatoes, red, and green bell peppers were all cooked to perfection. My wife had the pork sinogang soup and enjoyed it. She only wished she had more vegetables. Overall, the soup was a hit. One last note: The two item plates come with a free drink. The one item plates does NOT come with a free drink. read more

Real Customer gives REAL Reviews. I was charged $57.00 for these three items, which feels pretty expensive. Has inflation really gotten that bad? Noodles, meat stew and 8 Sausages. Dang It's Worst than Minnesota. read more

Food, service and ambience was amazing here. I tried the combo plate which consisted of an entree and two sides, got pancit with 2 lumpias and mechado. The pancit was very light and flavorful, the lumpia was very crispy and were huge, and mechado was probably the best I'd have ever. Great recommendation! read more

Scrumptious and competitively priced meals! Everyday they serve different dishes you must try. Looking forward to other Asian dishes Did I say they also have Karaoke? You might want to try that too on top of satisfied tummy! read more

The service was awesome, the food was really good, we had the fried fish, chicken adobo and pancit. We also tried the turon and lumpia, we very much enjoyed our lunch here at Climate Care. Thanks JJ'S Asian cuisine! read more

12pm. Lunch time. No lumpia. Told me to come back around 1pm. Let me tell you, you should have your most famous food item ready to rock. I was shocked and disappointed. I means it's 12pm guys. read more

Tried this new Filipino restaurant in Manteca.. and we were not disappointed.. generous serving, free drinks and coffee with combo meals and the taste of the food is very good! Their dessert- turon/ sylvana/ nilupak were all very delicious! We had the chance to meet the owner/chef.. very nice and friendly! Highly recommended! read more

Food served cold. Some are salty and some are bland. Really disappointed after waiting for so long for this place to open. Hope they are open to honest reviews for improvement. read more

Lightly salted SPAM?! C'mon, even the low-sodium canned variety itself is less salty compared to the regular one, and still you have to salt it lightly?! I'll pass. If this place is stingy with its portions, which is what Pinoys are known for, I'd rather go to Panda Express. They're known for their stinginess, but at least they have gourmet options available on their menu. read more

One of the best Filipino breakfast I've had in a while. Food is delicious! Great customer service as well. Always great to see a family run business! read more

Staff are terrible! Thought my first time was just a busy day for them but return today and still they have terrible staff. I came in to eat lunch ordered a breakfast item but told me that it would take a while because they run out of rice! But I told her I'll wait cuz she told me 10 min. So I waited she went inside the kitchen and disappeared and never cameback. Another staff came out and take orders from other customers, so I ask him if my order was taken because I've been waiting a while.nope the guy have no idea of what I'm waiting for.imagine a Pilipino store running out of Rice!! Walk out and bought a Taco.. read more

I believe this is the first Pilipino restaurant in Manteca. We checked it out earlier today and it was a great experience. The taste, temperature and quality of the food is very good. Example for Kare Kare they use oxtail as the protein of the dish and not a lot of restaurants use that. Michado was very on point on the taste and meat was very tender. Place is clean and very inviting with some Pilipino decor. People talk about us Pilipino's being very hospitable, wait till you experience the hospitality of the people that run the place. We met one of the JJ's if I remember she is Josie one of the owners and her son as well who helped us pick our food. They were very hospitable, they make you feel welcome in their restaurant. We will be regulars here moving forward. Thank you read more

great filipino restaurant and only one serving the Manteca area. Delicious food and clean restaurant.

So disappointed in the serving size. They gave such little portions! Other Filipino restaurants are not that stingy! Food was good but cmon could have gave better serving size read more

The food was scarce, ran out of everything that looked decent. Food was cold to kinda warm. Had to ask 3x at least to get some sauce for the lumpia. We were very disappointed overall. read more

Wow this place was wonderful and the people are so nice. Thank you so much for opening in Manteca!
