I've been craving Filipino food, so I came here with my family and it totally hit the spot. The food is way in the back of a grocery store-type operation, but I didn't care about the styrofoam plates and cups because the food was so good. My mom is allergic to pork, but their lumpia shanghai has BEEF which is very rare for us to find at filipino restaurants-- so she was happy! I had the sinigang and it was full of veggies and delicious soup. I just wish I had room for the huge halo-halo dessert-- if I wasn't so full already, I would've gone for it in a heartbeat it looked so good (and big!) Only downside: they close too early for dinner! read more

This place is legit, authentic and filled with Filipino customers. Their menu is short but includes typical Filipino fares including desserts. They even have Filipino breakfast items on weekends. Love it! read more

See all

Home away from home and a place to bring family and friends for some great Filipino food. Josie and sister have doing this for nearly 20 years. In 2008 after moving into a new house and on the way to the local BJs for supplies , I discovered the place because I wanted a soda. What I found was smells and tastes of home if my own mother's cooking Pancit and Chicken Adobo. They serve Turo-turbo style so the menu is a rotating goodness. They serve breakfast with the usual and of course the Pinoy version of corned beef hash. If your in a bind, you might as well enjoy a piece of home and nostalgia. Good! Serap serap!! read more

Visiting from out of town and our airbnb was close to this restaurant. You're first greeted by friendly people and served fast. I ordered the pancit palabok which is my comfort food and it was delicious. Only ate half and l was stuffed. Ordered the lumpia shanghai and it was crisp to perfection. My bf ordered tosilog which had Tocino, garlic fried rice and fried eggs. Soooo delicious. Will definitely visit again when I'm back in town! read more

To but something u needed to buy 20$ worth and I'm just one person.....I don't buy 20$ worth of stuff. I just wanted one thing and she wouldn't accept less. I just left then. read more

Excellent taste and excellent service ! Highly recommended ! Food is made to order , fresh and with great taste . Service is friendly all of the time . read more

Delicious Filipino food and friendly staff! I wanted to try everything on the menu as it all looked so good. I ended up having the Caldereta (a beef dish) and Saba (an egg roll type wrap filled with plantains). Both were tasty. This place also sells groceries. After eating, I looked around and bought some favorites. They have the yummy Chinese BBQ pork buns I usually buy from the Asian grocer. This place is definitely worth a try if you're in the neighborhood! read more

Just real authentic Filipino food, the way we eat it at home or at a family gathering. If you're not familiar to Filipino cuisine, you may need to develop an "acquired' taste for some dishes here. This is a little grocery store-small restaurant and they serve food cafeteria-style from heated metal pans. However, there are some dishes that can be made to order such as sisig, silogs, and halo-halo. If you're not familiar with Filipino food, you can't go wrong with the lumpia, calderetta, and adobo. The staff is awesome and welcoming. This is also a small grocery store, so you can find the basic necessities to cook your own Filipino dishes at home. And you can also find Filipino snacks and frozen foods here. Four stars especially since its the ONLY place I know of in Miami that serves Filipino food. read more

Pampanguena is a little Asian grocery store with that also serves Filipino food. They offer a variety of dishes such as sinigang na baboy, dinuguan, adobo, etc. Their Filipino food has the best flavors in South Florida. I've been to a lot of Filipino restaurants and most lack that authentic Lola-made-this-dish taste. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. read more

Great little market and the food is so delicious!! I come here whenever I am in town.

My Family & I have been coming for years and it feels more and more like family every time we come. Everyone knows my family by name and everyone that comes to eat. The food is Great and so is the service. read more

LOVE!!! I missed Filipino food so bad and I finally found the only one in Miami!! It is a small location, the food is located in the back. I wish they had more chairs but it's ok the food is fantastic! I can't wait to go back! They had the typical Filipino cuisine, very yummy. read more

Josie is the best Restaraunt owner I've ever met she's so friendly and provided the best Filipino food I've ever had period. If your looking or craving Filipino food in Miami then this is the place to go. read more

Visiting Pampanguena was like entering Grandma's kitchen. Same warmth, joy in serving you, and even though food was new to me, it felt like comfort food. You just don't walk to a place like this anymore. We ordered white rice with pork chop. The "all you can eat" rice was ok. The flavor of the pork chop was amazing. It felt like grandma's pork chop but with an asian touch. Simply delicious! We also had a chicken soup with "chayote" (squash in English but related to watermelon). This soup lacked the flavor and spices of "grandma's". I want to go back and try their famous Chicken Adobo that it's serve on weekends only. read more

this is my go to lunch spot and filipino market , so close to work and always fresh authentic food. Ladies are so polite and inviting its like eating at grandmas. read more

It's a little market that serves a small amount of food in the back. Nothing was very appetizing and I left without making a purchase.

Small but very nice selection of cafeteria-style food, plus grocery imports. Now they are doing the food Fri-Sunday, with limited selection on other days. read more

Family owned with delicious food! We feel right at home and we aren't even Filipino. Home cooked food and desserts.

My hubby and I were around the area craving for some Filipino food so we tried this place. Although there weren't a lot of menu items when we went (wed), the customer service was great. We met the owner & she was really friendly. She told us that we should go back on the weekends because its busier so they serve more food. I love the idea of paying all at once after eating & picking up items from their mini market. Regarding their food, it was only average. We would probably go back on weekends and whenever we also need to buy something from their mini-market. read more

Like other yelpers, I loved this place. Very affordable prices and fresh cooked ingredients!

Oh my! I'm latino but Pampangueña (Philipino (a)) is so good and similar to our coastal food in latin america and makes me feel at home! This family really knows what they are doing! Keep up the good work! read more

Just love their food especially the dinaing na bangus, their Filipino breakfasts, the pakbet, the buko pandan and just about every dish that they make. Everything is deliciousl ! And oh, the halo-halo, too. read more

Yum! The food is great and the people there are super nice. I come out the store very full and happy. I love the turon! It's my favorite thing there! read more

I drive all the way from Broward to come here! They are amazing people and the food is SO GOOD. Just like my mamas cooking!

We were so happy to find a Filipino restaurant in Miami! We had Lumpia, Pancit, and Adobo and all were delicious!! All very traditional and full of flavor! Staff was very friendly, came to the table and talked to us for a bit. We will be back on a regular basis for sure!! read more

Not very appealing from the outside because it's in a warehouse district but one of the best spots to satisfy your cravings for authentic homemade Filipino food! You will not be disappointed. read more

The owner and her sister are the best! Authentic Filipino cook foods! although when we went there there's only few cook food left but worth it. There's also space for you to eat. Owner in friendly and accommodating answering all your questions as she can ;-) There's a lot of goodies so after you eat you can grab what you need and pay everything. They also have goldilocks products which is A+ !. WIll be coming back in these place if we visit Miami again. read more

Not the place I'd go to right off the bat but I was convinced by some friends that it was a hot new trend in town. The food we ordered spoke for itself - full of flavor and very satisfying. I had some Filipino-style marinated beef with garlic-fried rice on the side as well as some greens. None of that standard salty chewy stuff I'm used to, this meat was full of flavor and prepared to perfection. I'm definitely coming back here sooner or later. read more

Complete hidden gem. Found on Yelp and took the leap of faith, delicious food, great price and friendly service.
