This little hole in the wall restaurant has amazing food! We continue to go back and each time their food is delicious. Love the chicken kabobs and their sisig is delicious. read more

Made the trek out since I was craving some of my own mom's recipes! Unfortunately, the chicken adobo was not my mom's but it was good! Definitely leans salty but it works with the garlic fried rice. They're more of a to-go operation, but that works in my favor since their meals are made to share. read more

Little Mama's - Chicken adobo - Filipino Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

We ordered the lechon, milk fish and pancit. I enjoyed the lechon as it was crispy and dipping sauce was flavorful. Milk fish was also crispy and easy to eat. The sauce for the milk fish was a bit too sour which I didn't love. It would add more flavor if there was a more sweet and savory sauce. But it could just be me since I'm not too familiar with this Filipino dish. The pancit was a bit different from what I've had because their noodles were thicker. The flavor was good though. Good service. The lady working there was so sweet! read more

Little Mama's Filipino Food was really delicious, and the flavors tasted fresh and authentic. The food was great overall, and I'd definitely come back to try more items from the menu. read more

So grateful I discovered Little Mama's. Whenever I'm in Round Rock, I have to swing by and get my pancit and lumpia. I always like to order in person and dine in, but get my food in to go boxes. I eat a little there and then everything is already packed up and I can take the left overs home. So much food. I can eat it again at dinner and lunch for work the next day. 12 lumpia doesn't last long. Truly is my favorite. This time when I orders pancit I got it with shrimp. I didn't know, or I should say, I didn't realize that the shrimp would be full body. Head, eyes and all. Next time I'll just get pancit plain. Nothing fancy. read more

"Hey little mama, why you taste so yummy!?" If you're in the area, just stop by a grab a dessert from the fridge, trust me! the best philippine dessert i've had. If you like asian flavors this will be a great find for you. also, the lumpias are fried fresh to order and are such a great savory treat. lovely owner and staff with the sweetest service. so quick and lovely read more

Came in to pick up my order but ended up deciding to dine in. The food did take a little while, but it was clearly made with love because everything I had was delicious. The lechon (crispy roasted pork) had the perfect crackly skin, and the pancit (stir fried noodles) was full of flavor. For dessert, I tried the ube cheesecake and the halo-halo. The ube cheesecake had great texture, though I wish the ube flavor had been a little stronger. The halo-halo (a shaved ice dessert) was the highlight for me. It reminded me a bit of Vietnamese chè ba màu (three-color dessert), especially with the sweet mix of textures and the scoop of ice cream on top. I loved the bits of jello too. It was my first time trying halo-halo and I'll definitely be back for it. The experience is more self-service than full dine-in, but I didn't mind that. You place your order at the counter and there's only a few small tables to sit at. There's a separate table with to-go boxes, napkins, and utensils so you can help yourself when needed. The staff was really nice and I liked that it was quiet and peaceful when we visited around 2 PM on a weekday. There's plenty of parking in the lot, which is always a bonus. read more

4.11.25 I spent some time here a few years ago when I was in the area. This is one of those I thought I had posted a review but unfortunately I hadn't. So here goes. The owner is so kind & gracious. She is very welcoming and makes you feel like you're in her own personal kitchen. The service is beyond stellar. She made me feel like I was invited to her home each time I was there. The colors are vibrant inside and it feels very cozy. It's on the smaller side but what else do you need? The food is outstanding. Top notch. One day I was there they weren't there even though the posted hand written sign said different. That's ok, she more than made up for it the other times I visited. The food is very fresh. The flavors to me were amazing. I don't often get to indulge in the authentic Filipino food. So I was in heaven. I have enjoyed some of the best lumpia I've ever come across. Keep doing what you're doing Little Mama's. Keep doing you. It's working. read more

This is my second time here and the the first time I thought they were great this time they were awesome. Only thing that changed much is the price but like what everything else in the world is expected and we want great tasting fresh lumpia made to order right there. This is a place to go to. Don't let the building exterior interior fool you. They know what they're doing here. Lots of different items on the menu to choose from. I definitely will be trying more things in the future. Give them a shot. Let me know what you think. Customer service is out of this world very friendly staff help support your local businesses read more

We ordered a Chicken adobo, lechon kawali, sides of fried rice, and halo halo for dessert over the phone Friday afternoon and the food was ready within 20 minutes. The chicken adobo was so flavorful and tender, paired perfectly over the fried rice. The lechon kawali was a bit on the dryer side, but it was still delicious and the serving size was plentiful. The halo halo had a ton of tasty ingredients and it was large enough for two of us to share it. The prices are a bit high, but I was happy to support a small business. The establishment seems to run mainly on their to go orders, but there was a couple of tables to eat at inside the restaurant. Their sign and building could use some improvement, and their interior is not too inviting, but I'm assuming that is due to Covid, since my coworker told me they used to have a buffet and a ton of seating before the pandemic. If you don't mind that, this is the spot to get great Filipino food. read more

I love Little Mama's!! The food is amazing and the family who run it is so wonderful and nice!!

Delicious hole in the wall goodness! I had the Chicken Adobo and Halo Halo dessert. The Adobo had a teriyaki pepper taste that was like gravy and teriyaki had a baby (in a good way!). Portions are big, I could have split it with someone and gotten enough to eat (or my wife and will get take out and eat it for two days). The owner was helpful in giving advice for those not familiar with Filipino cuisine. They can make things hot or mild for us wimps. The only downside is they are located in Round Rock and I live in South Carolina! read more

This is a small and welcoming restaurant. The individual working the front was so kind when we walked in and walked us through the menu. The portions are fantastic and the food is so tasty. My husband and I got the pancit and the spring rolls . read more

Little Mama's - Pancit and Spring Rolls - Filipino Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

You know you hit the best food when it is a hole in a wall cooked by mom. It seems like it's a mother and daughter team. So friendly. Joanna is the daughter and Nita is the mom. Comfort Filipino food. The sigsig is amazing! It is crispy pork belly, liver and fried egg. I love how they separate it from the rice. The pancit is delicious. The glass noodles are not clumped together which you know that's the best! We got the ube cheesecake as well and Halo Halo as desserts. Definitely coming back here. read more

Customer service was great! The lady seemed super congenial and made me want to ask if we could be friends lol. 5/5 for customer service. However, the food.... The halo halo was great. However, the pancit bihon was so salty, it felt like it was salt-curing the inside of my mouth. I even tried rinsing the noodles off in water and then stir-frying them again with even more vegetables (and even rice!) at home, but I had to toss the dish not even a third of the way into the dish because of the overpowering salt. Mind you, I really hate tossing food and will usually make myself eat even pretty bad food. I also inhale entire bags of super salty chips on the regular, so it's not that I can't handle salty foods in general. But the saltiness of the pancit was too strong here. The lumpia was better. Crispy and HOT even after a 30min drive back home. However, it too was saltier than I would've liked. Perhaps it was an off day for the cook; however, the food made me sad. Probably wouldn't recommend it if you have high blood pressure or if you don't want to drink copious amounts of water and juice cleanses for the next couple days. read more

I have been coming to Little Mama's for almost 8 years. I remember before the pandemic, they had a modest eatery inside with seating for maybe 25 people. Since the pandemic, it's primarily a take out place and you'd probably want to leave and not eat inside based on how run down the interior is. There are better interiors at provincial carinderias in the Philippines. The condition on the outside has deteriorated since the last time I came to pick up food. Now, there isn't even a sign on the outside of the restaurant. You have to find the entrance because of a cardboard sign taped to the door. Maybe, the sign fell and the owners just don't care or have enough money to take care of the sign. Whatever the reason, it says a lot about pride of ownership. Considering they don't care about the appearance of their restaurant, you have to wonder if they care about the food. This was the straw that made me write this review. I ordered pancit bihon, beef steak, and Bicol express. The pancit was super salty, almost inedible. The beef steak was also super salty and the beef was so tough that you have to guess that the meat they use has to be some of the cheapest cuts. Lastly, the Bicol Express which utilizes pork belly still had a good flavor, but the portion was so small and I had to throw out at least half of the pork because it was just pieces of fat. Very disappointing experience overall. I hope they take some pride in their restaurant and food, or else things won't be going well for them. I will never order food from them again. read more

3 years later and Little Mamas' still as good as when I first had it, maybe even more so... As usual, had to order all the classic Filipino hits (Chicken Adobo, Lumpia, Garlic Rice, Spam Fried Rice, Skewers) and some new ones (Kare kare). Everything was spectacular, and not a single thing I would have gotten rid of or change. I had meals for days and not a single regret. The food is SOOOOOO good!! I've had the "classic hits" I've listed before, but the Kare Kare was a first. I was skeptical to try, as Kare kare typically has lord knows what (pig leg, tripe, etc), but Little Mama's uses Oxtail. Verdict? The Oxtail was incredibly tender to the bone and the stew was incredibly rich in flavor. With the addition of the Bagoong (the pink paste aka fermented shrimp), it added an extra layer of depth and flavor. WARNING: USE ONLY IN MICROSCOPIC SERVINGS If you're reading this before you come, don't be intimated or judgmental of the location or the aesthetics of the restaurant. This is the bare bones and actually reminded me of the local restaurants in Hawaii. You'll find a makeshift cashier counter made of folding tables and an old fridge, prohibited access to restrooms, and two tables with foldable chairs. read more

Okay Lil mama. You are doing the damn thang! My partner, baby, and I made a trek up to round rock for this. It was busyyyy, we had an hour wait time after ordering so we whipped over to ikea to keep the baby entertained. the wait was so worth it. We ordered lechon, chicken bbq skewers, and a ginataan bilo bilo for dessert. All the seats were taken inside this cute and humble store. We decided to have a picnic in our minivan anyway bc the baby finally feel asleep. What a nice little treat everything was. The pork belly used for lechon had the perfect meat to fat ratio, it was marinated well, and fried to the best crispness. Comes with two sauces, vinegar and lechon sauce. The bbq chicken was sweet, savory, and had just a hint of char from the grill. There are 4 very generous sticks of meat. Both entrees came with regular white rice that was a good wet/dry level, (IYKYK) Everything was still good as leftovers the next day! I'll come everyday from drippin springs for that ginataan. It's delicious. My 9 month old would also agree. read more

Great and authentic Philipino food. Used to have this food in NY all the time and it's almost close to compare. Price is a little higher than Ny though which is hard read more

The cooking is good, but the portion is so small for the price you pay. It's just too much money it's disappointing.

The sisig and pandan dessert were notably delicious. The fried rice got mixed reviews from my kids who eat a ton of fried rice. I was surprised that they couldn't make chicken fried rice, so I had to order chicken skewers with veggie fried rice. It's a small joint with a small staff so you will wait a while for your food, but I would definitely come back and try more things. The dessert case is loaded with goodies, so save room! read more

Best Sisig I've ever had. Legit authentic Filipino food. I highly recommend this place.

This review is based solely on the poor potion size. Haven't tried the food yet. Ordered Kare-Kare and Pork Adobo. The portion size of the Pork Adobo is crazy small. Maybe a 1/3 of the container full. Along with the Adobo came enough rice to feed a small army though. Need to work on portion sizes. Not sure it was worth the $$ and the drive from Georgetown read more

Tried Little Mama's for the first time on a Saturday afternoon. We arrived around 12:50pm and didn't realize they closed at 1:00pm. The lady was nice and said the kitchen could accommodate a lumpia order so we ordered 6 lumpia and they were delicious! Hot, fresh, crispy and generous lot filled with pork and veggies. Sad we didn't have a chance to try the larger menu but we will be back earlier in the day next time! read more

Food was overall really good! We got the Pinoy Curry, Pork Adobo, Steamed Rice, Garlic Rice, and an order of the Lumpias. All were super good, didn't feel like I had to add anything extra to enjoy it. The service was also fine, although we did do takeout so can't say I had to experience much of it regardless. Ambiance was homey, no complaints there either. read more

Be aware that the food is really salty! We had always been wanting to try Little Mama for a few times, but couldn't make it due to their early closing hours. We were so excited to try Little Mama today, but left super disappointed. All the dishes sounded delicious on paper, but we decided to try their classic ones - lumpia, chicken adobo, and pancit bihon. Lumpia: Regular egg rolls with ground pork and carrots inside, nothing is different than a Chinese or Vietnamese egg rolls. Vietnamese egg rolls are more flavorful. These lumpia's are much bigger than the ones our Filipino friend made. It was served with sweet chili sauce. Lumpia was decent, nothing was special about it. Pancit bihon: SUPER SALTY. It was wayyy too salty that we couldn't eat after the first bite. It was stir-fried clear noodles with a few small pieces of cabbage and carrots. There was only a handful of chicken pieces buried on the bottom of the box. This dish was so salty that it was mind blowing. We had to tell the staff and asked if they could remake it. She happily took it back and remade for us, but the second round was not too much less. It was still salty. We felt bad throwing it, so we packed it home hoping we could fix it (not sure how), so we'll see what we can do with it. Chicken adobo: Braised chicken with onion and a piece of pickled pepper. This dish was also salty! However, it was more tolerable compared to the pancit because we ate it with rice. The pickled pepper added more salt and tanginess to the dish. However, rice or no rice, it shouldn't be that salty to start with. Tap water: Tasted a bit funny. There was no ice. There were many colorful desserts made with ube that we were curious to try. However, after the bad experience about the salty pancit and adobo, I didn't want to try anything else. The 3 dishes that we ordered were their classic ones. If they couldn't make their classic ones right, what about others? There was no signage in the front except the small sticker on the door, so it was very easy to miss. It was a very small restaurant with 2 tables - 4 chairs at each table. They could pull out more tables if we need to, but we would take up all the space. This place is not really designed for dine-in, but for takeout. Even though we dined in, food was served in plastic containers. We set up our own table with paper plates, plastic silverware, and plastic cups. read more

The food reminded me of home delicious and comforting. The staff is friendly and inviting. Must try!

Everything from start to finish was delicious, with the exception of the lumpia, which is why I takeoff one star. It was decent, but we felt it was a bit dry. Also I didn't like the odd smell of the moist towelettes at the front stand. read more

Friday Lunch The restaurant can be hard to spot, just a tiny sign on the window in a strip mall. Food is cooked to order so be prepared to wait 25-45 minutes. Strongly recommend calling to order ahead for pickup. Inside dining has been reduced to 3 tables in a corner so it fills up quick, more of a takeout place now. Dessert case: Cheese Puto (savory muffin), $4.99 Ube Biko Dessert (purple yam+sweet sticky rice), $8ish Buko Pandan (jello salad), $5.99 Meals: 6 piece Lumpia, $8.79 Chicken Adobo, $12.69 Pinoy Chicken Curry, $10.99 Sisig (chopped crispy pork belly), $19.99 Mixed Pancit Noodles, $11.99 Garlic Rice x2 Steamed Rice x1 Total $95, enough to feed 6. BEST filipino food I've had in quite a while albeit heavy. CALL to order ahead! read more

I came in today to get my fried fish fix! I have come into this location before so I knew what to expect. I came in and ordered the fried Tilapia that came with a side of rice. As this location is providing service using active COVID protocols, (consumers are required to wear a mask as well place orders over the phone or in person with a mask and after ordering wait outside), I placed the order for my food inside with a mask on and waited in my car for the order. When I received my fish, it was fried to perfection. #supportlocal read more

Food is not as good now. Also they charge $2 for an extra tiny bagoong for their $23 kare-kare. Filipinos don't do this !

Ordered whole fried pompano (my favorite!!!) Guinataang kalabasa with shrimp and 2 chicken BBQ skewers. Everything was AMAZING!! I wasn't expecting a whole lot from a Filipino spot in Texas... but I was SO impressed by how tasty everything was. Tasted like home!!

Their food is so comforting to me. My family loves Filipino food, and we would eat it all the time when living overseas. The Pancit is on point, and I could eat lumpia all day ! The Adobo was a little salty and not very much portion, the Cheesecake was good not to sweet though (like traditional cheesecake) if that is what you are looking for which is what I prefer. Overall, we do enjoy food from here! read more

Sarap! That pretty much sums it up! So happy I found this place!! Moved here 8 months ago and finally got my Filipino food fix The food, everything, was just so flavorful! Not salty but flavorful. It reminded me of my dads home cooking. It's that legit! It's that good! Even the sisig and bisteak meats were tender. My kids even ate, and they're picky! They usually stick to the pancit lumpia and adobo but here they tried and loved everything. The service was good. They were punctual polite and efficient. The place may be tiny with minimal seating, but it's clean and organized. Everything was in stock except for the cassava cake and that's only because they sold out. Definitely will be coming here again and I encourage all to come check this place out. Definitely worth the trip read more

Great cooking and nice staff. Plenty of authentic dishes to choose and each comes out on point. I am particular to basics like caldereta or pork chops. I've tried just about most things and can bet you will enjoy the food. Unfortunately, the operations haven't expanded with the popularity. The seating area condensed even more than pre-CVid. The wait can be longer than 5 star locations and no reservations. First come, first serve which is fine concept. However, I've come twice and each had an hour wait. The wait is a testament to the popularity and deliciousness, but they leave money on the table. read more
