This is one of the few filipino restaurants my family go to. Not just because it's a filipino restaurant, but because of the amazing food and atmosphere it has! Its restaurant has a storefront, while the restaurant is just to the left of it. We sat down and ordered, and our food came out within minutes of ordering. The service was excellent; while the restaurant is usually slow, the staff took care of our order, double-checked with us, and were super friendly. I gave a 4-star because it felt like their food/menu had changed just a bit-the beef pares and dinakdakan were a little sweeter than usual-but overall amazing. Would recommend La Meza Grill when looking for a local filipino restaurant at Delta/Surrey! read more

I came here alone to have some filipino food since it's been a while. I used to cook alot of filipino food so sometimes I find it hard to go to a restaurant and pay for the small expensive portions. However, this was my first visit here, and I was very pleasantly surprised that portions are very fair and so are the prices that allow people to freely try multiple dishes. I have come back since and still enjoy the new dishes I tried, the clean environment and friendliness of the staff. I look forward to going back again. read more

Craving for a pinoy taste? La meza grill has lots of filipino dish food to choose from, its good restaurants in Surrey, been here many times for dine in and so far was satisfied with the service. They do serve graciously which is good to share with groups, as well as their halo halo is something I recommend as they do put a lot of ingredients into it. During this pandemic we ordered from them and tried the sisigs, despite ordering three sisigs Chicken, Tufo and Bangus, I would say it was really savoury,tufo was deep fried yet not tasting oily. There location is good too, as there's wide space for parking as well as the restaurant is connected with Filipino grocery which you can shop at the same time once you go eat or do take outs. read more

Their website says it closes 7pm, we arrived 6:45pm and was refused service. As a regular customer this experience with them is very disappointing. Will never come back. read more

I always go for their chicken barbecue skewers. Totally recommend. A lot of parking space.

If you've never had Filipino food, you must stop what you're doing and go to this place! When it comes to Filipino food, I can't help but be snobby about it since I've eaten it my entire life. So when La Meza Grill first opened, I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm not a fan of the "turo-turo" style cuisine (which is like cafeteria style and ready to eat), so I was glad that this place was not like that! The restaurant is located inside of a Filipino grocery store and has a cute ambience to it; a mix of nostalgic Filipino staples (like the wooden spoon and fork on the walls) with a modern look. The place is very relaxed and the service is pleasant. My favorite Filipino dishes that I always order no matter where I go are: the filipino bbq dishes, bicol express, lumpia and sisig!! La Meza does an incredible job with their versions of these dishes! The food is delicious and so comforting; it really pleases the appetite! I highly recommend trying this place out as it makes great versions of the dishes listed above. There are many other dishes that are worth trying out as well, like the "silogs", so make sure you come in with an empty stomach and stretchy pants read more

I ordered lechon kawali from this store and got delivered really fast. Just disappointed with the food The lechon kawali pork really smelled bad. The foul smell of the pork can still be smelled even after cooked. I'd prefer other restaurants lechon kawali than this :) Or i can recommend they should cut the pork piece into cubes for better taste inside and cooked well read more

We met a family at the Richmond Night Market a couple of weeks ago and they suggested we try this place out. Given our love for food and adventure, we decided to drive 40 minutes from Vancouver to try this restaurant out. When we arrived, we figured the entrance was via a convenience store, which was quite weird. You wouldn't really know unless you were paying attention to signage. Once you're in, you wait to be seated. It is a lovely impressive little hidden restaurant. Very clean and organized. It's cosy and has a little bit of a Filipino feel to it - it reminded me of a few places in the Philippines that we visited. The little bamboo covers on the lights are so cool! We ordered several dishes based on recommendations. Our server was so friendly and patient with us as our group ordered. Our favourite dishes were their crispy chicken and pork. Our least favourite was the rice noodle dish and a dish made with pork heart and liver. I am game to try everything and I did just that when my husband and friend ordered the heart and liver dish. I tried it and I disliked it - it was a very weird, acquired taste. My husband and friend said it was not what they expected and have had before; so we'd score it a 2/10. The rice noodle dish was okay - noodles was a little over cooked or maybe it was pre cooked and was rewarmed; it was also quite bland. We'd rate it 5/5. Crispy pork - juicy, succulent and flavourful. Crispy skin as expected. A little different flavour profile than what I've previously had at other restaurants but it was delicious. Quantity was great for the price. We'll give it a 8/10. Crispy chicken - truly decadent. So moist on the inside; crispy on the outside and just the right amount of seasoning. We'd rate it 10/10. We paid $58 for 4 main dishes, rice and 3 bowls of soup/broth. The broth is amazing - $0.75 per bowl and you either choose beef broth or sinigang (sour broth with tomatoes). The sour broth was phenomenal! Lots of parking in the area. If you arrive and there's no one around to seat you; put yourself on the waiting list - they have a paper and pen on their little check - in desk. read more

Let me start by saying, this is our favourite Filipino restaurant on this side of the river. But when we were there last night, something was really lacking. The service was non existent, the food was off, and the servers seemed more interested in mocking the young new guy (seemed like one of their brothers). Last night we had Crispy Pata, Pork Sisig, Pork Sinigang and Leche Flan. The crispy pata was really bland. Even with the vinegar dip, it just tasted like oil and had no seasoning on it whatsoever (or so it seemed). The Sisig was just a big pile of oil. It was almost like they cooked it in a bunch of oil, then poured a ladle of oil on the sizzling plate, and poured the sisig on top. You could not taste any of the ingredients and was almost inedible. The sinigang was actually pretty good! I'm not a huge fan of sinigang but my wife loves it. It had a really great flavour and was full of fresh tasting ingredients! The leche flan was the star or the show. But you can never go wrong with leche flan . I would like to give them more stars but we were never checked on once during our meal and when we wanted to order something else, there was no on nearby. I know we will be back because we've had more good experiences than bad here, but it really let us down last night. read more

First time to be here for dinner with 4 friends and our experienced was good. The restaurant door is confusing as it's being shared with the grocery store. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The food was good. I like their Dinakdakan and Crispy Pata. The Bicol Expesss dish is a bit confusing from its color and taste. Their prices are reasonable. read more

Came here for Takeout. It's a small place inside and you have to walk through a Filipino Convenience store, but the menu is comprehensive of filipino cuisine (not just adobo). I had a delicious Bicol Express (Diced pork in coconut suace), Crispy Binagoongan (Pork Belly in Tomato Shrimp Paste Sauce) , Pinakbet (mixed veggies with pork chicken and shrimp) and Bulalo (Ox Tail Soup) which were all amazing. There is so much to check out for a future visit that I will for sure be back. Calling in the order was easy and the ETA was right on time. read more

Very good food and good service and very clean. The food are tasty and authentic Filipino foods.

A great Filipino restaurant! After swimming on a hot day, we wanted something to cook us down and we ordered their halo-halo, which is enough to share between 2 people. We were still hungry and ended up ordering their palabok, chicken bbq skewers, la meza seafood fried rice, and the veggie lumpia (egg roll). Although the veggie lumpia was fully stuffed and was quite large in size, it wasn't as tasty. Hence, my 4-star rating. Other than that, we will definitely come back and try the other dishes. read more

This place is absolutely delicious! My manager brought trays of pancit, Shanghai lumpia, pork bbq, and chicken bbq at the end of December for an early New Years celebration and everyone loved the food! I've had Filipino food before and at the places I've tried have been okay but La Meza Grill definitely won me over with their perfectly flavoured pancit. The noodles weren't dry like other places I've had and was loaded with veggies too. The bbq skewers were on a whole other level though! They were perfectly marinated and grilled, and definitely not cheaped out on portion wise. Overall, the food was very good and I'll definitely be coming here myself to try some more! read more

Ordered spaghetti and 2 chicken lomis yesterday. The wait time for pick up was 30 minutes but ended up 1 hr. The kids were excited to eat spaghetti but as soon as we opened it the sauce was pale and a bit watery. The sauce was sweeter than usual. The edges of the noodles and some of the meat were burnt! The cabbages in the chicken lomi were dirty too and lack of ingredients. We paid regular price on these take out foods but seems to be more like left over Emailed these photos and complained to the manager but so far no response. TIP: Do not order between 6-8 pm as the quality of the food will not be good. read more

Generous portions and great asian flavors, we had the grilled squid, roasted pork hock and chicken curry with garlic rice. I wouldn't have been able to make this on my own at home, I'm sure they used a real charcoal grill and rotisserie to cook with. I would order all these dishes again for sure as they all taste good. Will definitely be back next time to try their other dishes. read more

This was not on our original plan to have Filipino food for lunch but we were glad in the end that we did. Pinpin down the street closed. So we Tried some of their signature dishes like bulalo, crispy Binagoongan, grilled squid and bangus sisig. Pleasantly delicious. The Binagoongan had coconut milk which was a good surprise. We very much enjoyed the Bangus sisig. Overall 4 star review for the food. Servers were quite shy so hopefully they can interact a bit more. read more

Average Filipino food, it wasn't bad but it's not the best either. However, their service was horrible. Me and my boyfriend were waiting for the food for AN HOUR AND A HALF. I was so frustrated that we decided to order our food to go instead. There was no one in the damn restaurant, but us! The server tells us that there was a lot of people ordering take out, that just tells me their system needs to change. The server shouldn't be giving us excuses, as I never heard excuses from a busy restaurant. Since busy restaurants still get their food served in a decent and reasonable amount of time, but not La Meza Grill. I usually never complain like a spoiled brat, but our food took so long it was unusual. Also, their food quality has gone down over the years. Their barbecue chicken and pork always come out raw for some reason, whenever I ordered it. read more

La Meza Grill is situated inside a Filipino grocery store. My first time having Filipino food so can't really compare. There were a few names I recognize but my friend told me that for two it's wise not to order too many as it might get filling. We had the beef noodle soup which was ok to me. The broth tasted like Campbell chicken noodle soup. The noodles were also similar to that except they were longer. The beef was tender and there were cuts of carrots and onions. For the main we ordered the pork hock. Initially I wanted to order Kare Kare but thought that would go better with rice. Perhaps next time. The pork hock was crispy and it was indeed a good portion for two. I liked the vinaigrette that came on the side with some dice onions to cut through the fattiness of the pork. I knew I can't leave a Filipino restaurant without try halo halo. We got one to share since it's winter time and we knew couldn't finish one without turning into an ice cube. In hindsight, I realized we had to mix everything instead of eating each part on it's own. I guess that's the reason why I didn't enjoy it as much. The ube ice cream on was nice and creamy and went well with the ice. I liked the coconut jelly, leche flan but the sweet beans at the bottom weren't my favourite. Not sure if I'd order this again. read more

Food is good but the serving is not enough on what you paid for. Over all the space is small because it's shared with a Filipino store. Try it just for a quick lunch or dinner. The servers are quick and friendly. read more

There's a filipino grocery shop next to it and you can go there while waiting for your order to arrive. It's got the typical filipino restaurant vibe, nothing fancy. The kare kare and sisig are bomb, definitely worth a try. If you go there in a group of 4, two orders of sides and a bowl of rice should be plenty, as their portions are decent. read more

So disappointed and appalled with the service I received and the food itself! After hearing praises about this place I decided to take my kid for some food and dessert. It took 55 mins from when we arrived, to when we finally received our food. The couple sitting next to us, which ordered at the same time as us had not only received all their food items before us, but was almost done their meal by the time we received ours. The pork and veggie dish we ordered had only one small shred of pork throughout the entire dish. When I told the waitress, she didn't show any desire to rectify the situation and dismissed me. I will not be returning to La Meza Grill. read more

Best Filipino Food! I was on my way back to Cali then I started craving for Filipino food so I stopped by here. I've ordered chicken inasal and it was really tasty. I also ordered Spaghetti for $9, at first I thought it was expensive but when they gave me the food, it was a lot. It's probably good for 3-5 people. Also, they have the best sago't gulaman. read more

I had high hopes for this place because my co-worker highly recommended it. We ordered take out on a Monday evening. Food was prepared in a timely manner. We ordered Kare-Kare, Liempo, Palabok, Pork BBQ and Chicken BBQ. Sadly, all of them tasted bland. Kare Kare was so watery and didn't have that thicker consistency that it usually has. Palabok was tasteless. Liempo tasted salty and that's about it. The bbq skewers weren't too bad and they were big potions. I'm still willing to try it one more and hope that it's just one of those days. Can't say much about the service since we ordered take out but the girl seemed pretty nice when we paid a the check out counter. I did enjoy shopping at the Filipino store next to it. read more

This is a must visit restaurant. The food is served hot off the oven and I really love the pandan chicken. The service is fast and the only drawback is the space. It's rather small but if you're waiting anyway, might as well go shopping. There's a store right at the entrance. Make sure you leave room for dessert. The prices are a good bang for the buck.

Nice Filipino restaurant adjacent to a Filipino store - all in one location. The diner's ambiance is good. The servers are efficient. The selection is of typical Filipino signature dishes. We dined in with some orders made to-go. They cook as you order, btw. One thing we notice right off the bat is that a dish is neither too salty nor too sweet which is great for people who are either watching what they eat or not used to the typical saltiness and sweetness of Filipino culinary dishes. Our take-out orders had big portions. Bigger than what the other Filipino diners would provide at the same price. However, we wished they had not the transferred the hot Pancit Canton straight from the cooking pan and onto the styro box right away as this somehow melted the bottom of the box. Yikes. In spite of this miss, we'd still come back and try the other dishes. read more

Best Filipino food experience in greater Van! Very generous portions and great tasting food! Great value for a good price! Good option for family or group dinner!

Poor service. Lost orders and chaotic. Stay away if you want a pleasant customer service experience. Huge disappointment after what I heard. Looks like its going to the dogs. Only a hungry desperate person would be willing to wait for their so-so menu and food. I will make sure my friends will hear what I have to say about their disappointing service. What a huge fail!! read more

I was so disappointed in all of the foods that I ordered. The tortang itlog was somewhat burnt and I was expecting it to be just the eggplant and egg mixed (the added veggies made the torta not torta). The kare kare tasted awful that I only ate the 2 tiny size cut oxtail, was watery and was very tasteless (I had to add a lot of salted shrimp to give it a taste). The Krispy Pata was burnt, went to waste. The palabok noodles were so stiff and not tasty... I wish there was a bit more shrimps or eggs added. The garlic rice and crab rice were too pricy for the portion. I spent 100 dollars worth of food and I drove one hour to taste their food but was so not worth it at all. And oh, the cashier can't give a smile or an inviting greeting at least... so I'd say poor service. Overall, la meza grill place is very pricy for the small portion per order and the poor quality of foods. I do not read more

Inconsistent. Yup, I believe that's how I'll summarize the 2 visits I've had at La Meza. The first time was an accident as we meant to go to the other filipino restaurant but it was closed and La Meza was just across the plaza. It was a Saturday and the place was busy with brunch folks. Our party of 9 was eventually sat in 20 mins (which was fine since most of our brunchers were late.) The wait staff were very attentive and brought us water and our drink orders right away. Unfortunately, the coffee is not brewed but instant (gah!) We ordered a lot of food and the stand-outs were the tortang talong (roasted Japanese eggplant with minced pork and egg) and the dinuguan (blood stew). I was extremely disappointed with the pork BBQ. It was primarily fat and gristle smothered in the sweet and garlicky sauce. On our next visit, I was with a smaller party and we came in the middle of the week for lunch. We were able to get a table right away but the tortang talong was the only tasty 'ulam'. I'm not sure if I'll venture back to La Meza. It's just so.....inconsistent. read more

Coming from California, it's hard to impress me with Filipino food. My aunt and uncle graciously toured us around the BC area, and brought us here for dinner. I found the food to be tasty (the sinigang was perfectly tart), but what blew us away was the panga ng tuna!!! It was not what I was expecting - it was HUGE with a lot of tuna meat, and perfectly grilled! It was fully cooked on the inside, and not badly charred on the outside. Kudos to the chef! I will be dreaming of that dish until our next trip to BC. read more
