    Chicken adobo with garlic rice
    Jacquelyn L.

    Chicken adobo with garlic rice. Always consistent, always good. Casual environment. Small seating area inside good service. Parking is in the parking lot out front.

    Ummmm.... Disclaimer for anybody just stopping by to eat here on your drive home....call your order in ahead of time so that they will for sure have food available for you(and your family) to actually eat, otherwise the lil one at the register will keep saying"...oh, unfortunately, we ran out of that..." OR "...unfortunately, it will be a 40 min wait for that..." i mean, they told us they ran out of rice?? What filipino anything 'ran out of rice' ?? ...THIS place! Lol Anyway, we came in 3 fams deep and basically the restaurant was probably not ready to accommodate alot of orders taken 2.5 hours prior to closing time on a sunday. Also, its sacramento summer heat at 103 degrees outside and this spot only using overhead room fans and a portable fan sitting on top the coldest thing inside the restuarant, cola fridge. We had to make sure the kids ate something so we ordered the pork adobo and rice with some lumpia on the side. At least our other fam was able to order silogs and a few savory chicken combo....i guess timing is a virtue here. Cost is not bad for what the food is, just wish it was ready available. Overall thought....theres no more Savory Chicken in milpitas and this the only one to get it if you are craving it and live in sf bay area. So it is what it is solid 2 stars for experience alone, if food is on point then they get that plus HALF POINT.

    Love this place

    So. . .I was hungry and wasn't sure what I wanted to eat but Savory kept popping up in my head LOL. I got the half glazed chicken w/garlic rice and tosilog (for the first time). OMG. I don't eat pork much but that's about to change with this tosilog because it is SO good!! The pancit is a staple for us, my daughters love it. I didn't get his name but the employee working was very welcoming. Great service. Highly recommend.

    5 piece pork lumpia that I already ate some of

    There was a point in time where I would come here on a monthly basis during my college days. I recently went back after 10+ years and it still serves great chicken. The restaurant still looks the same and you can dine inside again. I'm glad they survived COVID. I recently called in an order so I wouldn't have to wait for my food when I got there. The server/girl who answered the phone was really nice and great. She got my order down quickly and efficiently. I ordered the combo plate with half fried chicken, longanisa, upgraded to garlic rice and got extra gravy. I also ordered a side of 6 piece pork lumpia as well. The food is as good as always. It is a lot of food so I got 2 meals out of it. It really hit the spot. My only complaint was the rice tasted old since the texture was like day old rice and really dry. There is plenty of parking in the plaza as well. I'll have to remember to come back here soon.

    My son saw an IG video for their fried chicken. The name itself should convince you to try them! Savory Fried Chicken is a Filipino restaurant hidden in Laguna Village Plaza. Plenty of parking. Although we got our food to go, there are about 10 tables to dine in. They also have a catering menu. Glazed Chicksilog (Breakfast Special) You get half fried chicken served with garlic rice and 2 eggs cooked any way you want. I like my over medium. Glazed sauce on the side. The chicken is indeed savory, juicy and crispy. The glazed sauce is like a sweet, syrupy teriyaki sauce. I like it but I think I like the regular chicken sauce more. My son got the half fried chicken with garlic rice. It's the same item without the eggs, but with a chicken broth sauce that's like a gravy. I think the sauce is what makes the chicken special.

    03.14.2026 - SAVORY FRIED CHICKEN - ELK GROVE, CA - the menu is pretty straight forward - haven't been here in years. It's still here, I guess they'll are doing great and people like their foods. The place appears to be clean and a cute decor of the Nipa or bamboo house decoratively adorns their flat screen television. They have the typical giant wooden fork and spoon and even a metal art of a rooster on one side of the registers. The workers behind the counter are nice and friendly. I ordered the Half fried chicken, longaniza and steam rice. I also bought a side order of their pork lumpia and the girl at the counter said they are Shanghai versions. I ordered it to go. They told me to wait 10 mins. It was around 2:30pm when I ordered on a Saturday. While I waited for my food, I notice the art paintings that depicted life in the Philippines. Got my food and left to go home. I have to say.....the portion of the fried chicken is big. It's practically a whole leg that gives you the breast too. I had to save again and ate it again at another meal setting. I got two of the sweet longaniza and it was nicely cooked. I ordered a side order of the pork lumpia and it was a lot when you pair it with your chicken meal. I was stuffed. I now know that I have to decide how I wanna eat. Because just the chicken alone is already large enough. Not bad. I'd try the other dishes on the menu.

    1/2 Glazed w/ 4 Pork Lumpia & Rice
    Rona G.

    This is the second time we've been here and it always hits! Just be aware that you'll wait about 15-20 minutes for your food if you don't order ahead. They get pretty busy. But it's definitely worth the wait! We ordered the 1/2 glazed chicken with rice and lumpia shanghai and the palabok. I noticed a lot of people order on Door Dash which makes sense because the restaurant isn't huge. 10/10, get your Filipino fix on!

    Half fried chicken
    Keat K.

    Stopped in for a light bite before heading to dinner with a friend. Ended up ordering a half fried chicken for $11, which seemed pretty reasonable. Lots of take away orders being picked up, but there are dining tables and chairs to eat in as well. Chicken came out hot and crispy, meat was a tad of the drier sauce, and is served a long with a side of gravy. Which offset the dryness pretty well. I'd definitely go back and could consider this spot for catering in the future as well.

    Half Fried or Glazed Chicken with Steamed Rice
    Lin L.

    Authentic Filipino food with big portions. Been here twice. First time was pork adobo & longanisa, second time was the fried chicken with longanisa. No pics of the adobo/longanisa from my first visit, I ate it too quickly. Tip: call beforehand if you're driving to eat here to make sure they have fried chicken. We came the Monday after Superbowl weekend and they ran out of chicken right before we got there. They said it wasn't typical, but I suggest calling to be safe. (I think they actually gave me an extra longanisa the 1st time if I'm not mistaken, I presume since the chicken ran out.) Pork adobo: all meat, no potatoes. Sometimes there isn't enough meat when eating at other places so I was actually happy there was a lot. The pork was tender and flavorful. Longanisa: Well done but not overcooked. Very good. Chicken: definitely the star of the show. Similar to Max's Chicken, but better. Delectable skin and juicy meat. Love the gravy. Ambiance: I knew going off of the interior/furniture this place has real Filipino food. It's a casual restaurant with simple tables/chairs and Filipino artwork that makes you feel like you're in the Philippines. It's a safe place to take someone who's never had Filipino food; they can try anything on the menu and would enjoy it. NGL the 2nd time I visited there was a table (or 2?) that should've been cleaned, there was rice on the floor. Otherwise, the restaurant was clean. I like that they package your food in to go containers even if you're eating there, for baon. Customer service was great, both times staff were friendly and polite. Parking: Located in a plaza with plenty of parking. Sarap!! A must visit when in NorCal.

    We purchase the grill and glazed whole chicken ! Both were fresh and flavorful It was a pickup order but we were greeted with big smile when we pickup.

    Half fried chicken  Java rice  Longaniza Lumpia !
    Jonathan F.

    Paid about $18 for the double combo with Longaniza and half fried chicken and $10 for lumpia! Java rice I can pass on Longaniza grilled was bomb... 8.3/10 Half fried chicken a bit salty but a perfect thin crisp 8/10 Lumpia 9/10 long pieces with good pork flavor! Gotta get that gravy with the chicken and vinegar to cut the fats and oils Nice little ma and pa shop and very friendly and helpful service. I'm parked outside right now waiting for it to open at 11am back to back weekends :P Overall a great value and taste

    Pork Belly combo with lumpia
    Chris T.

    Today, I ordered the pork belly combo and a side order of pancit. The pork belly combo comes with a scoop of rice and four lumpia's. The pork belly was prepared perfectly with the right amount of char. It was moist and delicious. This is the best place to get pork belly. The lumpia was very good also. The pancit was very good. The noodles were very fresh, with the chicken and cabbage. The staff tonight were very helpful and friendly. The perfect dinner tonight!

    Levii T.

    Consistent as always, Fast and friendly services. Plenty of parking out front. Delicious food for an appropriate price. Dine available but it's very small and limited seating but it does have good lighting.

    Ask the Community - Savory Fried Chicken

    Do u do garlic noodles?

    Thank you for inquiring. Yes we make garlic noodles.

    Did their dine in ever open back up?

    Yes, it did. But as you know, just a few tables inside.

    Do they still have the sisig fries?

    Yes we still make sisig fries.

    Are they open for dine in now?

    Nope and it doesn't seem like they'll ever reopen for dine in. Shame. The pandemic has been over for a while but I guess they've gotten used to just operating via takeout.

    Why is their phone always busy -- it is it off the hook?

    I'm thinking they're out of business. They won't answer. No dine in. You can't order online.

    Holiday hours? Closed Christmas Eve?

    Why is their phone off the hook?

    Lol idk when I call they seem to answer all the time. Keep trying! Their food is pretty good!

Therefore, we drove to 8430 Elk Grove Boulevard and Florin: Surprisingly, PhilHouse is located inside Island Pacific Market. We ordered our meal, paid, i.e., no waiting in a very l-o-n-g line which made Joy quite elated~lol, and we proceeded wolfing down our meals--we were FAMISHED. Gleefully, we ordered Beef Sinigang, Chicken Pancit, Squid Adobo (no pork inhalation for moi), rice, Touron, and Lumpia: For two people's inhalation session costed $33.31 verses at the Mabuhay's Baboy Boy Food per plate would have costed $25.00 per small plate! Therefore, performing an inhalation session at PhilHouse was cost effective, it was much cooler eating at PhilHouse, and PhilHouse's inhalation table's ambiance was pleasant. Surely, we shall return; however, I DO wish PhilHouse/Island Pacific would expand their locations to PLACERVILLE CA, Folsom CA, and Ranch Cordova CA because driving from Placerville is quite a long haul for an inhalation session!

This one wasn't crispy but still loved it. It's too labor intensive to make fresh lumpia at home so we ordered it. It did not disappoint.

Rice is ordered separately but very cheap. Service was 5 stars. They are so friendly and professional. You can feel the positive vibes while eating. Place is not that big but spacious enough to have several tables Not a lot of diners but there was a lot of "to go" as well as catering orders. People kept coming in and out to pick up their orders. Not a lot of good Filipino restaurants around Sacramento but this is one of the best ones. They have their own parking. I definitely recommend this place.

So over the weekend when I had to make a trip to Elk Grove I snatched up the opportunity to stop and bring some food home. I downloaded the app, created an account because I definitely want points and rewards. I also want to order ahead. My very first order was 2 piece chicken meal with spaghetti and mashed potatoes and gravy. It also came with the peach mango pie and the pineapple drink. When getting there my husband goes to pick up the order while I waited in the car with our dog. They were very busy inside and in the drive through so I expected a bit of a wait time. It started to get excessively long so I called him to ask what's going on. He goes to the counter to ask the status of the order. The guy asked for the order info so he gave it to him. He looks around and tells my husband they have no info on my order. That doesn't make sense. So he goes through a bunch of other customers receipts and he found mine. He laughed and told my husband oh I guess we put it to the side and forgot to make the order. Say what? Are you kidding me? They made it then. Strike one on lousy customer service. But maybe the food will make up for it? Yes and no. So my husband brings the food out and the plan was to bring it home to eat. I decided nope I need to try this now because I'm hungry and excited to eat this. I open the spaghetti. Looked good. Tasted better than it looks. I was in love and hooked immediately. My husband took a bite and didn't like it. His loss. More for me. It was a small side so I ended up just eating the whole thing. In the meantime I decided I also wanted to try the burger steak since I don't come often. He goes n to order it and I eat the mashed potatoes and gravy. Best fast food mashed potatoes and gravy I've ever had. Finished that off too lol. He brings the burger steak out. I was going to take the rest home but I wanted 1 bite of the burger steak. The container they used had a hole in the back and they 500 gallons of mushroom gravy ended up spilling over the side down on my bare legs (wearing shorts) and it was hot. At least I'll give them that. Hot, very hot and it's burned my legs. I still have my legs attached so it could be worse. Whatever. I try it. Not impressed. I took the rest home and ate it later because I wasn't going to waste food. But I absolutely wouldn't get that again. It was burnt, bland, dry. Even the Pacific Ocean amount of gravy didn't help the dryness. I ate the chicken at home. Very good chicken. Very juicy and tender. Skin was still crispy even after the drive back to Roseville. I also enjoyed the pie and the pineapple drink I just wish the drink could come in a bigger size. They are opening one in Roseville. I'm not sure when but it seems soon. And I can't wait. I'm definitely going to be a frequent flyer for that spaghetti. The bee outside was cute and I saw a few people taking selfies with it. My husband said the inside seemed clean. He wasn't inspecting it or anything. Just a normal interior of a fast food restaurant. I enjoyed the food, the majority of it. The customer service however was lacking.
