Yes, we finally had a chance to stop in for a quick take out bite. One person working the "turo turo" line.... Basically it's a butter line where they serve you the food. It takes a while when only one person working on 6 combo platters. I came in and saw the yummy empanadas. At $5 a piece they were hefty looking so I picked up a bunch for a friend and myself. They had chicken and ground beef. They were delicious and I think they were baked. I also wanted just a small portion of lechon kawali but they only offer the small take out container for $13. The pork skin was so crunchy and delicious. The amount included for $13 was very generous. No photos because I gobbled my food up while sitting in the car. read more

Made a food pre-order for a small family gathering, sorry Jhett, I forgot to take a picture of the rest of the food I ordered hahaha but aside from the crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside Lechon Belly, we had the famous Seafood palabok, the yummy adobong pusit, garlicky fried nuts & lumpia rolls! Pick-up service is prompt, ambiance of the place is nice (just needed to make your small table space look more presentable even when there is no current customer eating, to make it still enticing to dine-in). Remove boxes in the hallway pls. Overall, will order food still and the price is decent! read more

All the meats were tender and perfectly cooked. Large portions. Great hospitality and prompt service. We will definitely be back.

It happened again, hunger spoke and I found the closest open Filipino restaurant at 10am. Unfortunately it was Kamayan Fiesta. I have come here before to get the scraps at the end of the day, and it usually was chewy pieces of meat that sat on the steam table reducing over the course of hours. But this time I was there just 2 hours after opening so I was hoping to see them at their best. Garlic fried rice (good), tocino (good), pork adobo (good, but a little sweet). All also very reasonably priced. The bad side was I spied some chicken skins in the corner of the steam table and asked how they sell it, by the lb? I was told they sell it by the bag. When she rang it up and it was like 13 bucks for the shinny bag with barely a quarter pound in it. Too embarrassed to say no thank you, I figured I would try it. Well first bite was a chewy mess, not the expected crackle from a 13 dollar 1/4lb bag of fried chicken skin. And each subsequent piece only being the same or worse. I would guess this was yesterday's chicken skin and not a fresh batch for today. I will likely never go back here again. It sucks when such simple food is presented so poorly. read more

We randomly stopped in the shopping area from getting off of the highway because I needed to get something in the trunk of my car. My mom is Filipino and of course she spots this restaurant, so we had to go in and get some food. It's a very small place with very few tables and limited seating. We got our food to go. We did have to wait a while cause there was a line in front of us. After we ordered, we waited a bit for the food to come out, but it was worth it. There's actually a buffet style of food for you to pick from in order, but we actually wanted more lumpia so we were waiting for that to be done. We ordered halo halo and thank God we only got one lol because that thing was huge. But it was so good, literally the best I've ever had. The food was amazing and you get huge portions. The employees are so nice. We will definitely return when we're back in the area. read more

Halo Halo is HUGE!! Biggest I've ever seen. Recommend if you know what you want to call ahead to order otherwise there'll be a wait. The other food looked old and dry. I got the pancit and it was just ok, kinda salty. I won't come back for food, maybe just halo halo. It's a typical Filipino fast food restaurant. There are tables to sit down but if you're expecting a waiter you won't get that here. There are some dry goods for sale and desserts in the fridge but this isn't a fancy place. read more

The food is typically great, but lately it has been overly salted and if you don't get there when the food is fresh then be prepared to eat super dried up food. When this spot first opened it was amazing , i keep trying to go back in hopes of it turning back around. The hours are always off, and the listed hours on google and yelp are not accordingly noted. I've gone here on several occasions in hopes that they would be opened when craving filipino food. It is a 5 minute from my house so you may be able to understand the frequent stops. Anywho, two days ago i was craving some chicken bbq and halo halo so i stopped by and of course no bbq:( i was too lazy to drive to the filipino market in central Springfield where i typically get my halo halo if I'm craving. I decided to try the halo halo from kamayan, but holy moly did was it wayyyyy too big. The portion they give you is made for a family or two people if you. Considering the price which is not the correct price on the posted menu was a whopping $15.99. The menu says $12.99...-.- disappointed. The halo halo was generous and compared to most places pretty good, but they need to offer a smaller size. I definitely wasted more than half and would have saved a lot of money elsewhere... what i did appreciate was that it wasn't premade so i was able to remove the beans which I absolutely hate in desserts. So thank you. All in all kababayan in woodbride is my favorite, it's just way out of my way. I used to go there everyday when i had cosmetology school 4 minutes down the road! Best prices and the food is stupendous! Don't know if ill be back anytime soon for the food, but if i want to share a halo halo i know where to go! read more

This is your classic small Filipino restaurant. Each dish hit the spot: adobo, longanisa, pork tocino, and pancit. I especially liked the garlic rice, which made the rice pop with flavor. Check out the catering menu, which includes full Lechon, as well as pork and chicken bbq skewers. read more

Kamayan Fiesta - Your standard fare of Filipino cuisine. - Filipino Near Me - Springfield, Virginia

I went here with high hopes but was disappointed : 1. They close rather early for dinner (6pm, although they open at 8am). 2. Nothing was labeled, which makes it challenging for folks less familiar with Filipino food to figure out what to order. I had to ask the employees what each item was, which they seemed annoyed by. But I was there trying to give them my money to try their food while trying to be polite! 3. They stack disposable to-go containers in a way that blocks their signs that display prices per container and also adds another physical barrier between the customer and whoever is behind the counter, which makes it hard to order. 4. Once I finally picked out and got my food, I found it to be very mid, especially towards the end of the day, when the food has been sitting on warmers for hours. read more

I usually come here and eat the lechon and the breakfast plate. Today I decided to try something else because they didn't have any lechon available. I ordered a 2 item combo meal. I ordered the sinigang and adobo pusit (squid). The lady who helped me was very kind and helpful. She handed me my food and I went to sit down and eat. I was so hungry because I just came from a blood drawn that I took a huge bit out of the a squid. I ended up pulling out the backbone of the squid. Needless to say the squid was not cleaned properly at all. Don't serve a entree if you don't know how to clean and prepare it correctly. It's such a turn off. I won't be returning to this restaurant again. read more

My mom and I tried Kamayan Fiesta for the first time this past weekend. Previously we tried the leche flan and it was delicious so we went back to get some more to take home, but they didn't have it this weekend so that was a little disappointing. So we ended up trying the combo platters. My mom tried the Laing and BBQ sticks with white rice. I tried the lechon, pancit and white rice. The portions were a good amount and the price of the food was affordable. We just wished they had the leche flan but other than that if you want home cooked Filipino food this is one to try. read more

I had a serious craving for Filipino food as soon as we landed from our flight from Argentina. We went straight here from the airport (actually first choice was Manila Oriental but they were closed) and had very high expectations. We got 2 chef's duo (rice and 2 choices of entree). I had garlic rice, sisig and tocino and fiance got garlic rice, chicken inasal and menudo. In general, the food was lackluster. It was very bland for Filipino food. The garlic rice was hard. Some of the tocino's meat was dry (it obviously looked old). The chicken didnt taste like anything. The sisig didnt taste like sisig (maybe im just used to Kapampangan sisig). It was disappointing. We both feel like we ate just to fill our tummies. The craving wasn't satisfied. The ambience is nice tho. Very minimal and chic. The staff are friendly. They also have a "mini market" inside. read more

The food was pretty tasty and the pork in the adobo was surprisingly moist (sometimes meats cooked in vinegar dry out) so I was pleasantly surprised. The longanisa was your typical longanisa aka delicious but they left out my fried egg :( Prices are good and they already seem to have some fans. It's a small place so if there are about 3 people in front of you, expect to be waiting outside! Oh and btw, none of the food items were labeled so either do your research on Filipino food or simply ask them. They are nice people! Personally, I recommend lumpia and adobo for those who are unsure of what to start with. read more

I've been here before and decided to get food for dinner. This is not the first time it has happened, either. I don't know why they have you standing there for 5 min and no one comes to ask for your order. They didn't even try to help me. They looked at me like I was bothering them. So I left. Be prepared for them to just look at you and stand there without asking you what you want. Food is okay, but expensive. Service suxs so bad. If you want to be treated like you have a disease and want to know how it feels, go there. read more

simply put, the customer service is impersonal and has no idea what Filipino food is about. and she wanted to charge me $1 extra for an additional serving for Mang Tomas sauce! I have never heard of that or will tolerate that. No more business their way! People, thi is not worth your money! read more

I torn... I've been there twice. The first time (a year ago), I had the food to go and it was good. Last week, I ordered a variety of food, including fish. The fish was not cleaned. There were so many fish scales, I felt like I was chewing on a mouthful of glitter. read more

October 2021 - COVID Review: I'm glad my husband and I discovered this Filipino restaurant! We went around 10-11am on a weekend so they were still serving breakfast - which also means they have garlic rice (til sold out)! Unfortunately since it was still early, they didn't have the lechon kawali that my husband really wanted to try. But that just means we'll have to come back another time! They were allowing dine-in but the space is very small with only a couple tables available. The line was practically out the door the whole time we were there too. read more

Filipino restaurant in Alexandria was awesome. Sadly I didn't discover it till my last day here. Doh! Pork adobo, mini egg rolls, fried trout and spicy garlicky peanuts for the road. Very very nice. Wish I had discovered it on first day so I could eat here every day!!! read more

I don't have to drive all the way to Maryland anymore! Sorry Lummings, I still like you, but I live closer to Kamayan and they make the lechon just the way I like it! I'm from Hawaii and this is just like authentic Filipino food! Go check them out if you haven't already! read more

2nd visit & they're consistent if's not better! Tip : they don't have the exact same menu everyday so if we have particular dish we want to buy, make a phone call and make sure they have it for that day. Their service is 5 stars & food is good & it comes with a bottle drink for each combo. Each visit that I noticed, they're usually busy around lunch time. Next I'll try their desserts! I saw it cane with huge portion and I can't take it no more for today lol Also, if you plan on dine in, they have limited aeat but you can also eat outside there are 2 tables outside. Majority customers prefer to go box based on my observation lol The lumpia is also fresh & the oil that they're using is decent. I've experience nasty lumpia from other restaurant I didn't want to mention. ^__^ Kudos To The Owner! read more

This restaurant have really good Filipino food. They have a large variety of dishes so there is a lot to choose from. The sisig is pretty good, they make it at the spot if you order it on the menu. It is a little on the higher end price but there is a lot of work making this dish so it's worth it. The squid with adobo sauce is really good, and I tried a couple other entree and they were decent dish. If you're getting the lechón fried pork, make sure you get the dipping sauce. It is so good, the owner was so nice and gave me extras since I loved the sauce so much. The chef duo is a really good combo since it is only $9.99 and you get 2 entrees and 1 water bottle. The owner (I think) was super friendly and nice. She was helpful in telling me what were the dishes since I'm new to filipino food. This place serve different food everyday I think so you might get different food depending on the days. The food is also for breakfast and lunch, and maybe dinner. The fried squid look so good but I came in too early so they didn't have it at the moment. I will definitely come here and try it next time. Overall, I definitely get why other reviewers gave them 5 stars, it's because the service is super good and the food is decent! Definitely check this place out for some worthy food. read more

We had a terrible experience at Kamayan Fiesta restaurant in Springfield, VA. Not only was the food subpar, but the owner's behavior was completely unprofessional. We asked why they need our address to complete a transaction when we're picking up the food. Instead of addressing legitimate concerns, the owner resorted to name-calling and sarcasm. It's clear the owner takes any feedback personally and make assumptions about customers rather than taking responsibility for their shortcomings. If you piss off the owner, she'll fight you back. Save yourself the headache and avoid this establishment at all costs. She's not the only Filipino restaurant/store in the DMV. The other Filipino restaurants/stores like Manila Oriental and Kababayan to name a few will treat you far better than her. read more

Tried this place for first time yesterday and I was pretty happy with my visit, their prices are a dollar or 2 more compared to manila oriental but it's worth it. Their flavors are really good and serving is a lot (the combo serving is good for 2) I didn't not see the Kare Kare and sisig on their turo turo selection but I asked if they have sisig and i was told it's per order which was available in like 5-10 mins ( so if you don't see some of their dishes on their menu just asked them). The place is small compared to the other Filipino spots, they have I think 3-4 tables available for dine in. I'll definitely come back for more read more

Ok with the food but they need to work on speeding up the order. The twice I have gone, I waited 30 minutes. I keep saying no more but will probably give them another chance. If they put a system in place or hire more people to work the front, they could have a better place! read more

Food did not taste good, small portions and too expensive. I won't come back. I got stomachache after eating food here.

Crossed upon this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. The staff were very friendly. There is no sit down. It's pretty much for take out. The food is amazing! I will definitely be coming back here. The food was very flavorful and big portions for your buck! read more

I can only rate the service and operations as poor. I can't tell you anything good or bad the food was because, simply, they did not have any food prepared when we went there. On our first visit, we went in just before 5 PM on 12/18/21, and all the pans on the steam serving table were empty. We confirmed the place was open until 7 PM (checked the website too). After a bit, we got the attention of a person in the kitchen who came out and said told us there was nothing ready to eat and she was not going to take a food order from us and prepare something. I could be more understanding if this was 15 minutes to closing but this was TWO HOURS before closing! "Kamayan" must translate to "waste of time." We had heard the food was good but that will continue to will be a mystery to us. Maybe we just visited on a bad day, but I doubt if I need to visit this place in the future with such abysmal business practices. I really wanted to support a local business but, hey, you got to meet me halfway and serve food. read more

This place was such a mess and so slow that I didn't get to try the food. There was a crowd of people but no clear line-- and only one person working both the food and cash register, which did not portend great things. Also, the food in the buffet didn't look super appetizing but will reserve judgment until I actually get to taste it. read more

It was my first at time at Kamayan Fiesta and YOU have to go! It's the cutest little spot in Springfield with amazing food. The pictures on Yelp looked so appetizing so I went ahead and ordered small trays of food -- Kare Kare, Seafood Malabon, Chop Suey with shrimp and fruit salad. It was to die for. The food was perfect specially the fruit salad. I will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience. I don't have to drive across the bridge to Oxon Hill anymore for Pinoy food. Thank you Kamayan Fiesta. Keep it up!!! read more
