This place was a surprise! We ordered Kare Kare and Sinigang Spareribs and both were really good. I'm Filipino and there's not a standard way to cook even the most popular dishes but I say this is one of the best tasting Sinigang and Kare Kare I've had. My husband agrees. And the Halo halo is bomb! read more

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Stopped by to grab some Halo Halo. Inside is clean. Helpful with the menu items and explained all my questions thoroughly. Even Halo Halo is not my favorite, it was still tasteful. I will be back for other menu. read more

I've gone to this place a couple times before and wanted to have it for dinner just recently and what a disappointment... Ordered the longanisa and turon: I don't know if they changed cooks but it did not taste well at all. From the rice to the sausage it tasted...off...as if cooked in a dirty pan? As for the turon, what I thought would be a saving grace was also disappointing. The jackfruit was dry...none of it was pleasant which is weird because it wasn't this bad before. Looking elsewhere read more

I ordered the chicken BBQ, pork BBQ, bulalo soup, and lumpia, and unfortunately the overall experience was really disappointing. The bulalo soup was just okay, the broth had decent flavor, but there was only one piece of meat in the entire bowl, which felt pretty underwhelming for the price. The lumpia was fine but nothing memorable; it tasted like something you could get anywhere and didn't really stand out. But the biggest letdown was definitely the BBQ. Both the chicken and pork tasted like they were boiled and then tossed onto the grill for a couple of seconds. There was none of that smoky, caramelized flavor you expect from actual BBQ. The texture and taste were really off-putting, and honestly, they shouldn't even call it BBQ if it's going to be prepared that way. For the price I paid, this meal was a huge disappointment. I really wanted to enjoy it, but the quality just wasn't there. I hope they make improvements, because right now it's not worth what they're charging. read more

Such a hidden gem. The place is kind of tucked in a little center across from H-Mart, but it's really solid. The inside is cozy and reminiscent of how compact it can feel like being in LA. I really only came for the halo-halo and it was great! It wasn't overly sweet and had a good balance of toppings. Overall, great spot that I look forward to coming back to. read more

Loved this local spot! Growing up Filipino in the Bay Area I was always surrounded by the best food options and Filipino food when I moved down to LA was a lot harder to find but Neri's hits the spot! I had the laing with lechon and it came with a generous serving plus rice. I also took a Bibinka to go - delicious! There's a piece of salted egg in the middle which isn't my thing but the bake on it was great and of course you get that hint of banana leaf. I'm excited to try out their other dishes, they have a lot of the classics plus more local dishes like fresh lumpia (we know what's up on that one), Diniguan, etc. Casual tables and lots of lunch traffic when I went. Parking available in the garage under the plaza. read more

We always come here to each during lunch break with classmates and friends. Sometimes I still would order online through ubereats. The food is delicious my all time favorites are bangus and the bistek tagalog. Don't forget to try the gulaman drink. The place is clean and a lot of space so you can actually enjoy eating without worrying of being packed. The ambiance is very relax and sometimes thry play filipino rock band music? And I like it. I think over all if you miss Filipino food, this is on of the place that is worth checking out... read more

Great food, awesome kalamansi drink!!! I enjoyed the barbecue chicken plate and the turon. Great service and attentive staff.

Absolutely no notes. We asked for a Kamayan meal and they delivered. Everything served was delicious, all the aunties approved and kept saying, "sarap!" while trying all the dishes. We did do our homework and Neri's was recommended by fellow Yelpers. Glad yall came through on the recs! They gave us a table that sat x20 of us and food was hot and ready when the last group arrived. Would definitely recommend this spot for one person dining or an entire large group! read more

Super delicious, super homey food. I wish I was closer so that I could come here more often. Food was extremely well-priced for your portion sizes. Service was helpful and friendly and the ambiance was like any typical restaurant. They were also helpful and mostly knowledgeable with gluten free options. read more

Customer service was great, the place was clean. The bathroom was clean, and this is a plus for me. Ordered pansit bihon and bistek Tagalog. Both were delicious, but on the salty side. We ordered vegetable lumpia to go, and we were really disappointed. They were so greasy with a smell of old cooking oil. The oil was dripping heavily from the lumpia. My husband and I didn't feel good after eating them. read more

We ordered Neri's takeout for team lunch at the office and it did not disappoint. We ordered pancit, kare kare, adobo, lumpia, sisig and there wasn't one dish left behind. While I can't speak to ambiance i can speak to how good the food was, and approved by our Filipino coworker ! read more

Glad we chose this place. We were hungry and in the area and Neris was the top in our search. Their food was delicious. We had the laing, sisig, dinuguan, lechon kawali and halo halo. Everything was so delicious. We left so full and satisfied. Will be back when we visit LA again read more

Great prices, great flavors, and homestyle Filipino Classics. That is how I would summarize Neri's! We were looking for homestyle Filipino food at a reasonable price and that is exactly what we got at Neri's! Something that I noticed right away was the food was not super salty which is a great compliment to the chef since Filipino restaurants can often be overly salted because of the fish sauce and bagoong in dishes. The portions were a bit small on the pinakbet while the chicken adobo had small pieces of meat that looked like what was leftover from the night and the gravy could have been more vinegary. This is my only reason for the -1 star. Otherwise, I thought the menu had a great selection of Filipino dishes, service was fast and friendly, and the restaurant was clean. I would love to come back and try more items! read more

I absolutely adore this place! Neri's is the Filipino restaurant I would always go to if I am ever craving something that tastes like home. Some of the favorite dishes I would get are sinigang, lechon kawali, and laing. You could never go wrong with these amazing dishes! The service itself was also impeccable! If you are looking for a Filipino establishment in Ktown, head to Neri's! You won't regret it. read more

1 1/2 minute read: The original NERIS was on Occidental Blvd. And we lost track of where NERIS went ... till today. I came on YELP and typed CRISPY PATA, and NERIS POPPED UP. Here we are. Happy again. While there, the cashier told me the Owner was in the Kitchen but was busy. I didn't want to bother him (Owner) so I didn't insist on saying "HELLO ", but while our order was being prepared, guess who comes out of the kitchen? Yep. The Owner. When he caught a glimpse of of my wife and I, his eyes popped wide, lifted his right hand and pointed a finger at us, saying "WELL LOOKY HERE!" We knew the Owners, from when they had the restaurant on Occidental Blvd, near Hoover at Wilshire. The Owners are the husband, ROMY & his dear wife NERI. While we ate his food, he told us why they moved their restaurant. We got to know them because they knew my wife's Father since back in the 80's. Anyway, go enjoy some CRISPY PATA and meet ROMY. Thanks read more

The food here was so good! We could have used more help ordering as some of the dishes weren't familiar and we ordered something and got something else. Which caused us to have to order again, more food. But the steak marinated in lime juice, dish, was the best ever, for me! I would eat beef everyday day if it tasted like this! The lumpia was good, not as fat as I'm use to but authentically delicious! I will be back to eat here more often! It's health, fresh and delicious! The space is clean, no frills! Service as well. Just basic. I'm not mad! Great food! read more

Neri's is a solid spot for Filipino comfort food. The lechon kawali was crispy on the outside with tender, flavorful pork inside exactly how it should be. Paired it with their calamansi juice, which was refreshing and nicely balanced, not too sweet. Simple, satisfying meal that definitely hits the spot. read more

I came for the sisig, but they were sold out by noon. Still plenty of yummies to choose from on the menu. I went with the pancit palabok and longanisa (all day breakfast). Note, I didn't crack the take-out containers until two hours after I received my order. That was the intention, and in most cases, these menu items tend to be fine. In this case, I think the food fell short. Everything tasted good, but not great. Longanisa didn't have that pop when you bite into it and the rice was on the soggy and bland side. Pancit was also a bit bland for my taste, but texture was good. read more

I dare say this is the best Filipino restaurant I've eaten in yet! (And coming from a full-blooded Pinay I think that says a lot lol.) The menu was extensive and included pretty much all the classics. Even their dessert menu had good variety. The food was flavorful and comforting and tasted just like home cooking! And best of all, the food was NOT greasy!! Filipino food can be notorious for being oily, greasy and overly salty. Neri's has proven that even classic Filipino dishes can be delicious without making you feel like your arteries are clogging up with every bite, lol. We had barbecue chicken, beefsteak Tagalog, pancit palabok, lechon kawali, tapsilog, lumpia, as well as entire dessert menu. Every single dish was a homerun. The serving sizes were generous, and the prices were beyond reasonable! What a delight to be able to eat at a restaurant without having to break the bank lol. The restaurant was clean, quiet and kid-friendly. The staff was cordial, attentive, and quick on their feet. The service was lightning fast. Parking was a breeze in their building's underground parking garage. We're definitely coming back!! read more

We got Pork Adobo with garlic rice and salad (2.5/5 I love the garlic rice and salad, wish I got more salad, but the adobo was a little salty for me personally) Tocino Garlic Rice with fried Additional Egg (and tomato comes with Vinegar and papaya sauce (5/5 this is how tocino supposed to taste like, I'd get it every single time) Overall, I would come back to this place again! read more

Best Filipino restaurant in town. I had the crispy lecon if this was a school I'd given an A+ plus

So yummy! Found this place via YouTube. I got food to go before driving up to San Francisco. And it was the best road trip snack.

I visited this place due to a recommendation and I'm glad I did. I wasn't disappointed. Filipino isn't my go to but because I came here and I might have to broaden my horizon. A very chill place to eat at. It's very minor but I enjoyed how they bring out the dishes to you, great service. I tried out the bbq chicken and the sauce on it was good, cooked well, and juicy. Pairs well with the salad. The chicken was sweet but also savory. I also tried out the lechon kawali and I got to say, I was missing out quite some time. The texture is what really got me. I enjoy the crunch and the crispiness. I'll probably get this more often. Tip: Parking is limited, park downstairs. read more

I stopped here after getting some documents at the Philippine Embassy. What caught my eye was the Tocino Burger! Alas my luck they had none in stock. Everything looked delicious but I am trying to do a restricted calorie diet. I will tell you I was willing to break it for this! The young lady at the counter Tricia was so nice & in good spirits! The place was very clean & modern looking! Either way this place is bookmarked for the future. read more

Neri's can make for a great meal! I've been to Neri's a few times and specifically, their breakfasts are excellent. And open since 1984!? Wowza!!! Their Shanghai Lumpia were so darn good. Perfectly crispy, nice and small, filled with delicious minced pork flavor. Pro-Tip: I popped the leftovers in the air fryer and they were equally as delicious! I'm a tosilog addict...give me tocino, garlic rice, atsara and egg, and I'm a happy girl. Their tocino had great flavor, perfectly cut sized pieces and really easy to eat. Garlic rice was stellar and a very healthy portion. The kind of weird thing was the egg looked small. Not sure what was up with that, but I somehow survived the case of the tiny egg and still enjoyed my food, lol! Neri's is a solid Filipino option in KTown and I wouldn't mind trying more off their menu! read more

We had dinner last Friday and it was fairly good. We had crispy dinuguan, fresh lumpia, chicken empanada, and Okoy. I think I enjoyed the Okoy the most. The staff is welcoming, the service is fast and the owners are hospitable. One of the Filipino food places you can come to. read more

The pork barbecue i had was tough and chunky, They should have used pork belly instead. They need to hire a better cook !

Crispy pata was dry, over cooked and tasteless. One small container of vinegar. Uber Delivery.

Came in here on a rainy Sunday for lunch, and specifically was in the mood for sisig. A lot of reviews were pointing to come here, so I did. The service was friendly, and I asked the guy if he could make my sisig spicy (I'm a huge fan of the little red Serrano Chile peppers), but he noted they would put jalapeños in mine. Anyways, prices weren't too bad here, and I did like my sisig. It came out pretty quickly, although I've definitely had better sisig before. The Shanghai limpias were decent and I tried my friend's sinigang which was a bit salty but delicious! read more

I'd like to express my Gratitude to Neri's Restaurant and her Wonderful Family and Crew, for their Amazing Services provided with our Holiday Party. From the very beginning, in placing my order directly with Neri, she has been so Professional, Kind, and Gracious to accommodating our requests in planning our Holiday event. They were patient in working with our requests and showed up on time to set up our event. Their set up and service of their buffet line provided by Tess, Trisha and family were top notch and highly professional. They were the Best Crew! ~and Neri's Food~ Such a Huge Hit!! Everything not only looked amazing, but was delicious, and tasted so flavorful and good. We esp. enjoyed the presentation of the lechon (roasted pig) and how it was served added character and celebration to our buffet line, which fit in with our Holiday theme. It was moist and flavorful, and the skin~ so crispy~ complimented by Neri's homemade lechon sauce. Our guests also loved the fish, butter veggies, and their pancit ~were so good! I especially loved the roast beef and mushrooms. We can't forget the delicious lumpia and cassava cake for apps/dessert included, and Elegant Fruit Punch Fountain that was a perfect complement! Overall~ Such an Impressive Display and Service provided by Neri's Restaurant and Team! I am So grateful for All they have done to make our Holiday Event a Very Special and Memorable Experience, shared by a Delicious and Comforting meal. Thank you, Neri's Restaurant and Family,~ we will continue to recommend you! W/ Kind Regards and Gratitude, ~ Trish read more

This place is a cute spot. Average ambiance. The staff is always peeping from behind the little kitchen door and talking about the patrons. Misleading menu with average pictures. The quality of the food they are serving is below average. Certainly doesn't match the pics on the menu. Management is never present and it seems as if they struggle to receive constructive feedback from customers. My experience was horrible and the server made it clear "WHAT YOU ORDER IS WHAT YOU GET, IF YOU DO NOT LIKE IT , THATS A PERSONAL PROBLEM. WE DO NOT REFUND OR DO EXCHANGES FOR SOMETHING ELSE. ". Customer service is definitely not a priority for them. Don't be tricked by the ambiance, the customer service and dining experience will be a nightmare with no apologies from management. The servers are trained to come off confused when they are called out for unacceptable food. Great training to your staff , whoever management is , while you get rich in the background. NOT RECOMMENDED. There are other cute spots in KoreaTown that's way better and will provide a better dining experience and way better food . The competition is real . Why is ZERO stars not an option read more

I just ordered from Neri's Filipino for lunch. I am so happy they offer delivery in my area with no additional fee through Postmates. This convenience alone deserves a round of applause! I decided to try various dishes, and boy, was I in for a treat. The pork laing was flavorful and had just the right amount of spice. The fresh lumpia was a super yummy combination of crisp vegetables and savory meat wrapped in a delicate wrapper. I also tried their version of Palabok. I wish it had more sauce, extra chicharon, and fried garlic for toppings. Also, I got to try their cassava cake for dessert - it was the perfect sweet ending to my meal. The fact that they deliver without any additional charges is a huge plus. I will be ordering from them again in the future. I highly recommend it! read more

Nothing to rave about. Food was mediocre at best. Kare Kare was super salty and the Bilo Bilo had absolutely no Bilo Bilo. So disappointed.
