Growing up in the Bay Area, I was use to Filipino food. So when I got the chance to try PhilHouse, I was excited. The food was good but the service not so much. The young lady looked like she didn't want to be there. Even my daughter who was with me asked me, " what's her problem?" Maybe we caught her on a bad day but idk. Willing to go back, hopefully with better service or even a nice smile would go a long way. read more

Food is good but not sure what the extra $1 charge is for? I got the 2 item combo plate with the pork sisgi and chicken curry. The pork sisgi was sitting outside of he warmers underneath the banana leaf so it was a bit cold and the chicken curry was lukewarm. Would I come back again, maybe. They speak Tagalog so if you don't, expect a longer wait and smaller portion because they definitely cater to the own. read more

It's my first time here and it was OK. The customer service was good but th edits was OK. I had the curry chicken and it was mostly bone, not enough meat. The menudo was sweet and a lot of peppercorns. The ukoy was most not crispy. I wish I cans say I enjoyed my food but I didn't. I might come back and try it one more time. read more

Finally was able to grab a chicken stick. 11am is the time to come here. So much to choose from and it's hot n fresh! I enjoyed the chargrilled taste of the chicken. There was a lot more staff on site so it was a very speedy process to pick what I want and check out. The reason why I'm leaving this at three Stars is because none of the workers are friendly or welcoming. You would think at least one of them would be. Every time I ask What something is or what it's comprised of I get a stare from them that makes me feel like I'm dumb for asking! I am not Filipino so yes, I do have questions about dishes served because I am curious and inquisitive lol I think the pricing is a little high here. I got a piece of pork belly which wasn't that big and weighed about a pound and they charged me $21 for it. They didn't flavor or season it so it was pretty blend and I honestly don't think it was worth such a steep cost I do enjoy the lumpia, the protein sticks, and a couple other things here, but the lack of customer services deters me. read more

Nearing closing, they unfortunately but understandably ran out of sinigang. We ordered a side of chicken and 2 combos which included steam rice, pancit, mongo, soup, yellow chicken curry, and afritada. Common service with pleasantries via cafeteria-style ordering. Note, there's a new bakery, also inside Island Pacific. read more

We came back after about three years, but, unfortunately, this time its just OK for me. The price is still cheaper than average, so no issue there. Service is also outstanding, again no issue. The food though is just mediocare at best. I ordered the 2-item combo, which came with rice/pansit half and half, with pork adobo and pork bbq. The pansit was bland, and the adobo did not taste anywhere near what adobo should taste. The pork bbq was not bad, but definitely not the best pork bbq that I have tried. read more

It can be difficult to find Filipino food in Fresno, but PhilHouse really kills the cravings for me. They are situated as a build-a-plate place, with all their dishes out in pans for you to choose from. I typically go with my mom because she likes to have tortang talong, and I like their chicken barbecue skewers. The food is good and tastes like home - I wouldn't say it's the best, but it definitely tastes like your more typical, authentic Filipino food. The only gripe I had was that my mom doesn't eat pork, but the pancit bihon already has it mixed in - it would be nice to be able to add meat to the pancit. The workers who serve you are typically very helpful, though. They are quick and very nice. The seating area itself is alright, but nothing special and sometimes dirty (I'm guessing they don't have enough staff to be constantly cleaning though, obviously). It's very food-court style. Either way, the portions are decent, the prices are pretty good for how much food you get, and it's nice to sometimes just kill those childhood cravings and shop around after or before a meal. read more

Great pit stop for Filipino food in the island pacific market. An issue is the flies that come in from the outside. Service is pretty good, can be slow on weekend when line bogs down with lots of people ahead of you, and moreso when they can't decide on food. read more

Everything is freshly cooked right before lunch hour so that's the best time to go. End of day looks so sad barely filled and looking lifeless so my rating would be lower at that time of day also so GO EARLY! I was just sad that the dessert turon is never made early. So that is prepared right at lunch hour NOON! If it's Smoky inside from the grilled meats and fish that means it's being freshly cooked by the hustle and bustle of Filipino employees that are ready to serve to the lunch hour frenzy of hungry customers. The bbq sticks are really big so one is sufficient for one person. I enjoy the fried chicharron intestine, smelt and chicken skin served with their house vinegar sauce. I usually get the basic pancit, pork adobo and beef kaldereta but I'll be back to try the grilled stuffed squid and hopefully an order of that fried banana Turon dessert! read more

Good grab and go Phillipino food. So much to choose from but my favorite are the bbq skewers and lumpia's , little egg rolls. Everyone is so friendly. This is such a unique place as there is not another Philippino "fast food" type of place in Fresno! Also love that they fry fish of your choice Fresh! Fantastic and can't recommend enough read more

First time experience. The restaurant was located inside the super market right off the entrance. Service was decent: 3/5 Atmosphere is fair: 3/5 Food: 4/5 Overall a 3.3/5.0, and a good experience with an interesting taste. I recommend people to look at the menu ahead of time before waiting in line to order. The restaurant gives a Philippine Panda Express or fast-food serving vibe. The serving was good (not too little, extra for take home if desired) and a fair amount of food as we ordered two combo#3 plates. We agree with the highly recommended chicken adobo side item. read more

The portions are plentiful.The beef in peanut sauce was good. The spring rolls were good with the sauce. They were out of noodles which is half the reason we came here. The tofu/red pepper, and bean sprouts dish was not bad but we didn't really like it either. The chicken adobo was very good. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Good value. read more

PhilHouse - Peanut beef, bean sprouts and tofu, chicken adobo - Filipino Near Me - Fresno, California

Located inside Island Pacific Seafood Market is Philhouse. They served hot food your option to eat it there or have it take out service. I ordered the combo #3 which comes with choices of meat, rice or pancit. I also got the Turon which is so sweet and delicious for dessert. The market place and the restaurant was clean with visible signs all around placed perfectly. I highly suggest you make a visit to Philhouse on N First Street for your Filipino cuisine. The photos are attached to this review. read more

For some reason, I been craving Filipino food these days! I was already in the grocery store (Island Pacific) and this little food court was inside. I didn't know what to order at first cus it was a bunch of dishes I didn't know of. I only kno the usual pancit, adobo and lumpia. The young man behind the counter was a HUGE help! We went down the line (luckily it wasn't busy) and I asked him what was what. I wanted to know what kind of protein and if the dish was on the sweeter side cus I didn't really like sweet savory dishes that much. I preferred spicy savory or even a lil sour. I ended up with the two item combo. I did pancit as the base. And I decided on chicken pastel & bisco express (something like that). I was gonna get a third item cus my son likes squid and they had grilled squid. But once I got back to the squid I seen a fly hovering over that station. And there was foil there tryna cover up the food but it didn't work cus once I pointed and was like I want that squid, the fuckin fly decided to land on it!! And now I'm thinkin nope nvm cus idk if it been landed on it earlier and hatched eggs, I dont fuckin know!! But I wasn't gonna grab shit that had a fly land on it. So we both got stuck and looked at each other and he said sorry and shoo'd it away! I told him nvm on that. I really think they should have covers for all the food and if not, at least have fans or something to keep flies away. I get that flies be coming in the stores or whatever but I'm sure there are ways to prevent it like how other stores have. I just hope a fly never landed on any of the food I already picked and paid for. Took it to go, tried both dishes and they were both good. A little on the oily side but the meats were nice and tender. The pancit wasn't the best I had. I ended up reheating and remarinating it cus it lacked flavor. I don't think I'll be back for the other dishes. But I continue to go to the grocery store that it's located in. read more

I catered here for my daughters 1st Birthday. I ordered in person about 2.5weeks before her event. I ordered the salo-salo package which comes with 5 trays and you can choose from a variety of dishes each with a different type of protein (Beef, chicken, veggie, pork and pancit or lumpia Shanghai). The order: Beef Stiek Chicken afritada Pinakbet (veggie) Pork adobo 100pc of lumpia shanghai I would have to say everything was delicious. The veggies and meat and the flavors were so good. Only complaint was the chicken afritada had little bits of bones through the dish which made it a little difficult to throughly enjoy without having to stop in the middle of eating and the adobo was a bit on the sweet side. The lady that took my order was really nice and she gave me clear instructions and gave me the option to pay at the time I ordered or during pick up. I had my dad pick up the food the day of and he didn't have any issues. When I saw the trays they looked small but it was packed. There was so much food left over even after we had our guests pack food to-go. Overall I had a great experience. I will definitely be ordering from them again when I host another party. read more

9/30/23 Getting lunch. Two Chicken BBQ combos ordered by calling . It comes with Pancit & Lumpia. The worker was kind & said it would be ready shortly. I went in to get it. Its inside a Mart. They were busy! Music playing and they have tables where you can sit if you want. I told the worker after waiting in line and he checked on it. One was really rude, ignored me and got to another customer. Wow! Not right! Really disappointing & unexpected. They finally figured out my order after talking to a 3rd worker to get it. Lunchtime! It's a lot of food! Sunday lunch too! The BBQ chicken was tender & delicious! Great BBQ sauce too! Tasty Lumpia with sauce! Great Pancit too! Mother said the BBQ chicken was "off the hook!" Lol! Lumpia was great & Pancit was fresh & good! I can tell you, if I was treated well and it wasn't so chaotic to try to get the order that was called in, it would've received 5 stars, but what I went through to get it wasn't worth it. =( read more

Philhouse never disappoints! I always get the pork Sisig, some kind of soup (this time it was the beef Nilaga) and beef caldareta. I opted to get half pancit and half rice and was hooked up with the pancit. Pancit was nice and flavorful and had fillers/toppings like fish ball, few pork pieces, and some veggies. The 3 item combo definitely comes with more than enough food for multiple meals. I usually pick this up and split it into meals for the week for work. Very close to authentic Filipino food that you would find in Southern California! They also cater too. I brought a tray of their pork Sisig to a Friendsgiving and paid about $60 after tax and my veggie lunpias. Everyone loved that dish. Friendly staff, line can get long but usually moves quick. read more

Lots of variety food choices offered. Food are cooked fresh daily. Excellent customer service.

I love the variety of Filipino food they offer, and that it is combined with a market so it's a one stop shop. The inside is very clean, good customer service. I most definitely will come again and bring friends and family. read more

Honestly, Filipino food needs to improve in the Fresno area. This place doesn't have good quality Filipino food. In other places in California, you will find great Filipino food, such as places like Carson, CA and the Bay Area. The Filipino food in those places are amazing. At Phil House, it just doesn't feel like the food was made with passion. It doesn't pack the same kind of flavor. The barbeque sticks are whatever. They are kind of dry and lack sweetness. The only thing I can actually recommend from Phil House is the Caldereta. That is actually good. I don't mind eating that with rice. Their pancit is good too. But really, those are the only two things that I can recommend. You can go ahead and enjoy the good stuff they have in the Island Pacific Supermarket though, where Phil House is actually physically located in.. In there, they have good smelt, Filipino Ice Cream, desserts, bread, noodles, and more. You go there for Island Pacific, not Phil House. So yeah. read more

Fresh food ...lots of customers!!!cheap and reasonable.friendly staff and accommodating to customers request,

I love Filipino food and whenever my mom and I aren't on good terms, I come here. I love how nicely the chicken is cooked for the chicken adobo and I love how the other meats are cooked too! They don't have the same food everyday but it's like a nice surprise to see what they've got. I don't know if it's because I'm hungry right now but oh man the breakfast they have is really good too! If you're picky, STAY AWAY FROM HERE. I don't wanna see a bad review because of your picky options. Go eat somewhere else. Anyways, the service are always friendly Filipinos and sometimes you can see the cooks in the back wippin it up. Also, the supermarket too is pretty nice and I like how they can also fry the fish you bought for you. read more

Catering-style Pinoy restaurant inside the Pacific Islands Seafood Market. You can find nice variety of many authentic Filipino dishes like pork adobo, sinigang, chicken afritada, pancit and kare-kare just to name a few. Additionally, the menu includes breakfast plates (silog) with longanisa, with garlic fried rice and fried egg, lumpia (egg rolls), crispy pata and lechon, and pork and chicken skewers. Dishes can be ordered individually a la carte or served as combination plate with rice and pancit (noodles) to give you a variety and save you money. Many, if not most, dishes could be ordered as a catering tray to serve large parties of people. BEST BET: chicken tinola, chicken afritada, pork menudo and pork adobo There is a small dining area next the counter where you order. Avoid coming in the late afternoon and evenings as most dishes are gone by that point or have become dry from sitting under the heat lamps. read more

So many greasy foods here if you like fried foods. And I think the price is kind of pricey. Once for a while is ok .

I stopped by here since I was in the area. I've had their food at parties but never have gotten food from their actual restaurant. It's located inside of Island Pacific grocery store. There was plenty of parking so it wasn't difficult to find a spot. When you enter the grocery store the restaurant is located to the left. There's some seating inside but they were all taken up. The set up is like a fast-casual style. You stand in line and as you walk through you tell them what combo or foods you want. There's a variety of sizes you can order. I told the woman it was my first time there and she was very kind and patient with showing me different sizes to choose from and what the dishes were. There's so many different options to choose from so I just chose what I knew. I got the pancit bihon, chicken afritada, and pinakbet. For dessert I ordered the bilo bilo. Everything so delicious. The only thing that threw me off was the purple flour dough balls in the bilo bilo. It has this really weird grainy texture. My daughter said it was good and it didn't taste anything grainy. So who knows maybe it's just me and my texture issues. But I'd like to go back and try their grilled fish and bbq because it looked really good. read more
