    My wife and I have been coming here for a while now since moving from Hawaii 4yrs ago. This is the…read morebest Filipino restaurant in the BCS area, but it isn't the best overall in Texas that we've had so far. This time around, we ordered the Ilocano Pinakbet, Pancit Bihon, Beef Kare Kare, Garlic Fried Rice, and the Halo Halo for dessert. Beef Kare Kare was flavorful and delicious, but had 2 small pieces of meat and a huge piece of fat. The Pinakbet wasn't as flavorful as it should've been. The bitter melon was undercooked so it was extra bitter and the pumpkin texture was off, like it was ripe and a fresh fruit-like texture instead of a potato-like texture. The Halo Halo was of course awesome. Staff are very friendly. Our waitress Majoko (I think that was her name) was very friendly and welcoming. Service has a little bit of a wait, but because it's freshly made. A decent amount of dining tables and the parking lot is a bit tight.

    Food was great! It reminded me a lot of home. When we walked in, I greeted the nice Filipina Tita…read morewith "Kumusta po". She didn't realize I was Filipina too lol. She reminded me a lot of my Titas. She's so sweet and talkative. We wanted silogs because we haven't had them in a long time. Hubby wanted longsilog and I wanted tocilog, but they had neither so we went with tapsilog and bangsilog, which is why I'm docking one star. The food was delicious though and the service was excellent. The place was clean and felt like home. The tapsilog and the bangsilog really hit the spot. The halo halo also was delicious. You just need one to share because it's HUGE! If I'm in College Station again, which I might be since we have friends here, I'm definitely coming here to get my Filipino food fix.

    I relocated to Houston almost a year ago. After watching Mikey Chan, who I follow on YouTube…read morerecommend this place highly. I told my husband to please let's check this place out. My father is Filipino so I was missing Filipino cuisine. This place did not disappoint. It was clean, and staff were very hospitable. We came in extra early as per Mikey's suggestion. So they were still putting out food for the lunch buffet. Although they didn't not have the sisig or my one other favorite, pork sinigang ALL of the other favorite were there to satisfy this Half Filipina

    After years since our last visit, we finally made it back to TJ Filipino Cuisine--of course for…read moreFilipino breakfast. We really missed Hazel. I'm not sure if she still works here, but the place honestly felt different without her welcoming smile and warm reception. We arrived just in time for breakfast (last Saturday) I ordered Bangsilog, while my cousin had the Tocilog. Service was fast as usual. I really enjoyed my Bangsilog--the bangus tasted fresh, perfectly fried, crispy on the outside while still tender and juicy inside. Unfortunately, my cousin's tocino was disappointing. The tocino was tough and tasted like it may have been leftover from previous day and simply reheated. Either that or it has been sitting in the kitchen for quite awhile. We still finished our meals. Because we were starving, but it definitely affected the experience. It also made us miss Hazel's customer service even more because if she had been there, we're pretty sure she would've handled the situation right away. I waited a while before writing this review because I wanted to be as fair as possible. The lady who served us was still very good, although it was obvious that the overall customer service experience was not quite at the same level as when Hazel was around. The biggest issue was really the tocino. Because of that, this latest visit to TJ's wasn't perfect and honestly made us wonder if it's still worth making this one our go-to spot whenever we're in the Houston area.
