This is long overdue, but I wanted to finish what I started with this incredible place. I always love checking out Filipino spots in the area and saw that this was on the way home from work one day. I ordered the Patita, which was a slow-cooked-deep-fried pork shank that came with chili garlic glaze, along with garlic rice. The presentation was sensational and I love the name of the restaurant. Looking at the photos I took makes me want to order the same thing again because this combination was truly amazing! Next time I go to this place, I will have to check out other options on the menu. read more

It doesn't get better than crispy pata and lumpia! As a Filipina who thinks my mom's cooking is the best, Spoon and Pork is one of the only places in LA that I will gladly eat at for Filipino food! We got their: Lumpia Shanghai Crispy Patita Beef Tapa Silog Lechon Tacos Garlic Rice The table next to us got The Patita and we NEEDED to get it, and it was soooo worth it! The skin was perfectly crispy, and the meat inside was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor from the tangy sauce they glazed in the outside. It was great with a side of garlic rice, and their lumpia Shanghai is a must get appetizer. Their lechon tacos had the perfect amount of acidity and their tapsilog was so tender and was topped with two sunny side up eggs. This was the perfect amount for three people with more than enough leftovers to take home. When you come in your seat yourself, order everything from a QR code, pay for your meal and wait for everything to come out! I wish they still had servers since I prefer that while dining out, and the majority of everything is self serve now, but it makes for a quick lunch/dinner if needed. Highly recommend stopping by! read more

I love serendipitous dining experience and our Tuesday night visit to Spoon & Pork was a wonderful experience of just that! I was not familiar with Filipino cuisine though I knew it's a blend of indigenous, Spanish, Chinese, and American influences, and many of my Asian friends like it. Jacky, the owner/manager greeted us warmly right away and answered our questions. With her and other Yelpers' recommendations, we ordered a fried tofu appetizer, three Adobos with pork and their famous Patita... Thr tofu came very quickly; followed by the Adobos. Jacky's husband is the chef; he and a young boy (their son, I assumed) brought out the amazing Patita. And I quickly understood why they have "pork" in their name!!! Their pork was amazing! The Adobos came with chunky pork belly cooked tender and flavorful; the Patita is a giant piece of roasted pork leg, enough to feed half a dozen people (with other dishes)! The infusion of garlic and chili (somewhat like Sriracha) was amazing. We ended up having a great feast on a Tuesday night. Ambiance was casual and relaxed. Parking in Sawtelle is never easy; the Marshall's garage on Olympic has been my go-to spot. Back to the food - the Patita was far more than we could conquer so Jacky used two of their larger boxes to wrap it up for us! It was still warm as I walked out with it under my arm. Somehow this made me happy. Bottom line: for meat lovers who want a change from steaks and burgers, this is a great place to try! Now for my Chinese readers: If you like 烤乳豬 try their Patita, it's a 脆皮烤蹄膀！ If you like 東坡肉 or 焢肉飯， try their pork belly adobo, 肉又香又大喔！ read more

I'm very sad to hear that this location of spoon and pork will be closing... I've enjoyed this spot on Sawtelle and it's been a great place for me to bring friends to introduce him to Filipino food. Stand out dishes are definitely their Kare Kare, Lumpia Shanghai and more recently their sirloin fries...the sauce on these fries needs to be bottled up and sold! So delicious! I'm glad that they'll still have the silver lake location and will definitely be making the trek out there to support them. The staff have always been so welcoming, kind, and I appreciate the extra effort they do to make sure that more people know about Filipino cuisine. I wish him the best of luck and we'll be showing them support at their other location for sure! Thanks spoon and pork team! You rock! read more

Came to support a local business. They have counter service when short staffed but today they had a server to help with orders and bus tables. We ordered at pay using QR code tableside. Delicious food; look out for the specials and limited items. We got the Kare Kare (limited today), Patita, tofu silog, and some adobo chicken fries as appetizer. Plenty of food for three so lots to take home! The Patita was fork tender plus extra crispy skin so best eaten quickly. We had extra curry from the Kare Kare so used that with the silog. Great food; we hope their lease situation is in a better spot! read more

I finally got to try Spoon and Pork in the west side with a friend who came from out of town! It's located in a popular plaza with limited parking so your best bet is to find public or metered parking and walk over. The eating area is modern, dim and cozy. You order from the table with your smart phone by scanning the QRC label on the table. From there, you will bet table service and if you were lucky like us, you will get to meet one of the chefs and co-owners who was extremely friendly and chatted it up with everyone. We ordered the kare kare and the lechon kawali to share and let me tell you, it did it's job for comfort food! The lechon was cook tender and comes with atchara and pickled papaya to give each bite a complete taste. The kare kare had beef so tender. Kare kare didn't have rice so make sure to order a side but we were fine with the rice on the other plate. So delicious and I still think about that kare kare dish today! I know I can cook Filipino food at home but come here for the dishes which are more labor intensive and from very talented chefs with a vision. I can't pressure cook oxtail or deep fry patita on any given day so I will let the experts do that! read more

The pork adobo bowl is one of my go-tos for comfort Filipino food, which is very limited around this area. The lechon and lumpia were very crispy. The tofu dipping sauce was interesting in a good way (tangy soy sauce). The steak and fries were a bit underwhelming The service was a bit weird since there was a sign in front saying to seat ourselves but then a server ended up seating us. I remembered previous times there were physical menus but they switched to using QR codes where you directly pay before you get your food read more

Maybe this is the breakthrough Filipino food's been waiting for--a spot planted right in the heart of West LA, surrounded by the hum of pan-Asian cool. No gimmicks. No watered-down fusion for the Instagram crowd. Just honest, soul-soaked Filipino cooking--adobo that still clings to its roots, rice, meat egg pairing (silo) that makes you stop and think. The place isn't trying too hard. It doesn't have to. It's straightforward, still evolving, run by folks who care and who are making changes the right way--quietly, efficiently. You'll taste it in the food. Support them. Take a friend who's never had real sinigang (sour soup). Let them learn something. Let yourself be surprised. You'll walk out full--and better for it. read more

Authentic taste of the Philippines! Went here on Easter because I was feeling homesick and missing my mom's cooking. This place did not disappoint! Got the chicken Inasal and the lechon kawali bowls. Chicken had so much flavour and the most delicate char, the lechon kawali was beautiful and crispy without being drenched with oil which was amazing. ordered the bagoong on the side to make it taste even more like home. Definitely didn't taste like bagoong you could get from a jar and I'm from Pangasinan so I'd say were bagoong experts. The ambiance inside is a modern nod to the Philippines without being overwhelming. Service was very quick and helpful as well. I loved that we could have this special treat and get a quick casual bite of home. I need to try the fries next time!! read more

Spoon & Pork has been on my list of spots to try for a while now. When I heard their Sawtelle location was closing, I knew I had to hurry and visit. Two weeks ago, I tried to stop by but, unfortunately, they were closed due to a staffing shortage. Fast forward to today, and I finally got to check out Spoon & Pork's Sawtelle location before it closes for good. I couldn't pass up their famous Patita ($27 for a small) -- the true star of the menu! The crispy skin paired with the flavorful chili glaze was unique and absolutely delicious. The Adobo Tofu ($8 for six crispy pieces) was another standout. The tofu was perfectly crisp, and the rich adobo sauce packed so much flavor. I also tried the Pancit Canton ($12), which was light, savory, and had a refreshing lemony kick thanks to the toyomansi. Last but not least, the Big Breakfast ($25) was a great deal with three eggs and a variety of meats -- tapa, chori, and tocino. It's a perfect plate for sharing! The restaurant's clean, welcoming vibe in the heart of Sawtelle Japantown makes its closing even more bittersweet. While their original Silver Lake location is still open, it's quite the drive for me -- but with those amazing Filipino flavors, it might just be worth the trip! ------ Exciting update! A day after posting this review, Spoon & Pork announced they're not quite done yet at the Sawtelle location! They'll be testing out a new concept for two months -- Spoon & Pork Express -- offering a modern take on turo turo (a Filipino cafeteria-style eatery) with budget-friendly dishes. I can't wait to see what they serve up next! read more

Have been going to the Silver Lake location for years so happy to now only be finding out they have one on Sawtelle too! Same amazing food but more options in terms of variety. We ordered the Patita (NEVER MISS), the Kare Kare (MUST ORDER), the Sisig Rice and Laing! Service is quick, warm and friendly. Definitely going back to try more of their dishes next time :) read more

Stopped here for lunch recently and I'm glad I did. What I didn't know was that they were doing self-seating and ordering through a QR code at the table. Not sure if it's always been like that or due to being short-staffed. I ordered lumpia and tocilog. The food came out nice, fresh, and with good flavor. You can get water and utensils at the entrance. I'll be heading back soon to try their other dishes. read more

I met my sister and her family for lunch here today post Christmas and were completely satisfied beyond belief! I'm of Filipino descent and have to say these guys nailed some key dishes that brought me back to my childhood! From the scrumptious Lumpia, Beefstek, Excellent Adobo wings , fried chicken , Lechon and garlic fried rice this place rocked ! We were a table of 7 and were seated right away. This restaurant is centered in the heart of Japan/Korea town off of Sawtelle and is a solid alternative if the places around it are backed up! Overall I give this place a 9/10 and will come back next time I'm in Los Angeles and craving Filipino Food on the Westside! read more

I've passed this spot for years and never stopped in, but I finally got brunch here this fall -- and Spoon and Pork live up to everyone's recommendations! I love that the menu has different types of portions (single, regular for 2 people or family for 3-4 people). I got the Adobo pork belly for breakfast, which includes garlic rice, two eggs, and tomato. It was so tasty and delicious! The garlic rice was absolutely divine. Now I can wait to try the other dishes on the menu! read more

Sawtelle: So many good places to eat and so little convenient parking.... We were trying to get to Big Boi Filipino but they never seem to be open when we hit this part of town. No issue getting a table for three last minute on a Wednesday night Service was quick and friendly and was happy to recommend dishes to us. We started with both the brussel sprouts and mushrooms which I would normally not mention as they are simply side dishes. But both were really delicious and we finished them before we even got to the main dishes. The Patita was phenomenal, with the slightly sweet/slightly spicy glaze all over it. That with a little garlic rice and we were in heaven. Last thing ordered was the Kare Kare - lots of hidden gems inside the bowl, each one better than the last. The peanut sauce is perfectly light so it didn't overpower the other flavors. I can't speak to the authenticity of the food but for our group we thought everything was amazing. read more

Spoon & Pork is a super casual Filipino eatery in the heart of Sawtelle Blvd. Super casual as in you order through your phone and get your own water & put your own plates away. Their little waiter, and by little I mean their son of about 10 years old or younger, offered to get us some silverware & plates so that was a bonus. The place was empty when we got there that it seemed closed! It was a clean, minimalist restaurant. The menu at this place was simple enough but was disappointed that they had sold out of what I wanted to try the most which was the kare-kare plate. I guess it was cause we came an hour before closing time. Anyway the entrees that we did get were delicious! We got the vegan pancit canton [$12] which as really flavorful. Wish that came with just a tad bit more, but shareable if you're not as hungry. Then we shared the Lechon Kawali Silog [$20]- that lechon was the star! The crunchiness of the skin & the tender pork UGH sooo good. Mouthwatering in fact! It wasn't all oily either like the normal lechon kawalis. Really loved that for us. Be warned that parking around this area is tough. But when you do find parking, visiting Spoon & Pork for your Filipino food cravings are worth it. read more

We ordered their breakfast. It was delicious. Garlic-fried rice with adobo-pork belly, and fried eggs. The service was borderline unwelcoming. And worse, for our table of two, they charged outright the 18% tip in the check. And there was no conspicuous sign anywhere stating that they would do that. We would have paid 18% anyway (or maybe 15% in this particular case). In addition, the place was practically empty during our visit. So it's not like the server was overworked. Or maybe she was doing something in the kitchen. Nevertheless. we've never been at any restaurant where the tip is included in the check for a party of two. For all its worth, the place was clean with a decent decor. We'll probably come back because we are giving the poor service the benefit of the doubt (i.e., maybe she was having a bad day). read more

What a great find! In the midst of many Asian restaurants (mostly ramen), we picked this place... We ordered the spam & eggs and the chicken inasal bowls and a side of garlic rice... HuWAW, they were awesome! I had the caramelized fried spam and it was amazing, for $10! It tasted at least $17! I never had caramelized spam, I'll have to start cooking mine like this! The side of garlic rice satiated my rice addiction! My wife had the chicken inasal, she loved it! It was succulent & soft but not overtly flavored like the best Inasal restaurant in the Philippines, Inasal!=o) It was savory-sweet, tangy, and slightly smoky... served with garlic rice, roasted scallions, and pickled papaya (?) & carrots - "atsara." The ambience is very plain, self service, and modern music we didn't really care about. You order thru a QR code menu and the food is delivered to you by the Chef/Owner, Jay! Parking is tough to find in the mini mall parking area and on the streets during busy times but don't park in the side streets after 6PM... it'll be a $60+ ticket!=*o( The competition is fierce at this location but this is definitely worth a try over the other busy ramen places. Besides, you can cook your own ramen at home!=ox Come on in Spoon & Pork, don't be shy and try REALLY good food with Filipino Flava and very reasonable priced! read more

Ok first off we called for a reservation.. We said 10 and a baby. When we got there, i told them our name and then i said 10 and a baby. The lady that helped us said i heardyou said 10 and didnt know you have a baby. I told her that i did mention it but i said its ok anyways because i can just have him by the end of the table. She went on and on pissy about it. I wanted to leave but my patient husband said its ok and just ride it out... It did get a little better but she was still in a mood. Food: 3/5 really expensive for a small serving. Service:2/5 Parking: they have parking in front but always packed so need to park by the street which is the theme for the sawtelle restaurant. Will not be back just was not worth it. read more

It is a modern Filipino comfort food restaurant in LA! We ordered - Adobe Pork Belly ( so soft & juicy! ) - Patita ( highly recommend! Slow cooked deep fried pork shank with chili garlic glaze ) - Laing ( coconut taro leaves with pieces of trout and Thai chili ) - Pancit Canton - Adobo Rice ( so flavorful! ) - Calamansi Juice Our favorites are the Patita and adobo pork belly, the pork belly melts in your mouth and the patita is so crispy and juicy. They don't come with rice - rice is extra order - other than that everything is flavorful and good presentation! Service is fast and the interior is clean. read more

Our group enjoyed our visit to Spoon & Pork. The service was quick and kind. They accommodated our large group and out tables together, brought all dishes out family-style, and cleaned up quickly to make sure the tables weren't chaotic. We enjoyed all of the food but preferred some dishes over others. The noodles, rice dishes, and Brussel sprouts were sooo good! Some of the dishes lacked slightly in flavor, but generally, it was all delicious. Parking can be tough here if you can't get into their lot. There's street parking in the area, but before 6 pm, you need a permit for some of the streets. There's a few lots around the area if you don't mind walking a little bit. :) read more

We ordered the following dishes: Adobo pork belly, shrooms salpicao, Patita, Pancit canton and garlic rice. Overall I'd say the Patita and the shrooms were the stars. Everything was also good but something about fried pork shank that falls apart like fried chicken amazed me. read more

9/10 Overall: this was my first time at a sit down Filipino restaurant and all I have to say is wow. Their food was not only beautifully plated but tasted so flavorful. Everything was seasoned perfectly and tasted amazing! I loved the ambiance of the place and would def visit again. Patita $27: 5/5 the skin was perfectly crispy and the meat was so juicy. This was a fried pork shank and everything about it was heavenly. The chili garlic glaze pulled it all together! Adobo pork belly $22: 4/5 the flavors of this sauce were so rich and the pork belly was so tender. My only concern with this one was that it was a bit expensive for the amount they gave us. Chicken Inasal $15: 3.5/5 this was a Filipino grilled chicken that came with 3 leg and thigh pieces. This was super delicious with the sauces they gave us but weren't as flavorful as the other two dishes we had. read more

I visited the Sawtelle location of Spoon & Pork at a super awkward time (I want to say around late May)--the owners had planned to close it, but were forced to stay open as plans to transfer the lease or something like that fell through. Nevertheless, I am happy to have tried it before it formally closed this past August. It was very hard to reach the business over the phone, as my original plan was to get takeout, but my friend and I decided to make the short trip over to Sawtelle, knowing that we could fall back on plenty of other options in case it was closed. The restaurant was pretty much only staffed by one person, and he was very nice. We got lumpia Shanghai, pork adobo, and lechon to go. It didn't look like much at first, but it was REALLY good. I am not a Filipino food connoisseur, but I could tell that the meat used for the adobo and lechon was quality. I grew up eating Cantonese roasted pork (siu yuk) and always hated it when there was more meat than fat. That was not the case with the Spoon & Pork lechon. I also loved the prominence of black vinegar in the adobo, which gave the meat a nice tang. Each entree came with silog (sunny-side-up eggs and garlic rice) and some pickled onions. The pickled onions especially helped out in cutting the fattiness of the meat. I finished the meal feeling sad that I had not been a patron of the restaurant earlier, but I am glad that their Silverlake location remains open. read more

I have been looking for a chance to try Pinoy cuisine after finding out that I am 5% Filipino. Finally I was able to do so while searching a place for quick lunch in Sawtelle. The Michelin starred restaurant is in the middle of a plaza with dozen other restaurants and we almost missed due to its subdue store front. The restaurant décor is simple with quite friendly staff who brought us the menu right away, they even have a picture menu which is very helpful for those who are visiting the dinner for the first time. Here we go with the dishes: The Papita was great and in my opinion it is a must order dish. The skin is crispy, the meat is tender and well-seasoned with an exquisite garlic sauce. Kare Kare was also pretty good with its soft meat and simmered vegetables. However the main attraction is the sauce which has a wonderful mixture of seasoning with hint of peanut. The only downside is the price which is on the higher end. The chicken legs were perfect grilled and the price was really reasonable. Both garlic and adobo rice side orders were also quite nicely done and great complement to the main dishes. Just a head up: 18% gratuity is included. Overall a 5 star experience. read more

My sister and I came the other day, not knowing what to expect as we don't often eat Filipino food. I loved the flavorful and tender pork tocino paired with two runny eggs and garlic rice, and the pork belly nigiri was also delicious.

Spoon and Pork is another Filipino restaurant in LA that I've been eyeing to try for years! They have good portions that can be easily shared among the table. The interior is modern and light on the eyes, has some sort of an island-theme with the wallpaper and rattan chairs etc. Note: they have an automatic 20% gratuity for parties of 5 pax and more. This location is in a plaza that has parking but since a lot of really good restaurants are side by side to each other, it can get busy as well. What we got: Pork belly nigiri - this was an item that I used to see online and one that I wanted to try the most. The pork was soft, tender, and delicious and I love the umami sauce that it has underneath. I wish we had some chopsticks as it would be best to eat it that way instead of a fork Patita - their version of crispy pata which had some sort of a sweet chili sauce that is almost Korean-inspired in our opinion. This was actually worth it for $27! It's huge and delicious. The skin was just crispy with trimmings of juicy fat and the meat was soft. Probably the best item we ordered. Inihaw na Liempo - could use more marinate/ sauce in my opinion but it was still good Chicken Inasal - the biggest letdown. My friend vouched that they do it better at their other location so not sure if we just caught them on a bad day. The initial look alone, the chicken was pale instead of orange (from annatto oil) as how it usually is. This could definitely use more sauce basting! The portions were good as each plate came with three leg quarters. Garlic rice and annatto rice - both sharing sizes were good but nothing spectacular. Thea annatto rice was better between the two-- and I usually love garlic rice no matter what. Overall, food was amazing but just lacking in some flavor here and there. Still coming back in the future though. read more

Spoon and Pork deserves all the flowers! I don't know if they know what this jewel of a place means to me but when I first tried their food, I was truly blown away. Their food is genuine, soulful and just executed beautifully - something I didn't expect in a modern space. Everyone talks about the crispy pata, including the owner of Bridgetown Roti (another notable LA restaurant) because it's so damn perfect but it's their laing that I dream about. I've dined here a couple of times and the staff are always friendly and food remains consistent. Can't wait for my next trip there and this time with my family. Cheers! read more

The menu has changed, but the Filipino food is still bomb. Great spot for sharing--highly recommend the kare kare and pork shank with a couple of rice dishes to round it out.

Not going to sugarcoat this as I was really disappointed by the food. I was excited when I first heard about this place so I went right ahead and ordered my usual favs; kare kare, chicken inasal, adobo, etc. The kare kare was way too sweet; almost like eating a butterfinger chocolate in stew form. Also not sure how they came up with the $20 price tag for the personal size, as I doubt the ingredients were that special or were handpicked to be able to justify that price. I honestly have nothing to say about the chicken inasal and adobo as I didn't feel nostalgic about home when I tasted them. Having said that, I do love fusion food (if this place is considered one), but this was just not it. I would rather make the drive to Artesia and visit Gerry's Grill. read more

I've been meaning to try this spot for well over a year, but it opens kind of late for a lunch spot so I always missed it. Finally stopped in and while I liked it, it wasn't anything super memorable. Went with the Adobo pork belly entree and upgraded the rice to match. The food was solid, but the flavors weren't super punchy. I liked the plate, but not enough to come back. It's pretty basic inside and the waitress seemed to have a few many other tasks. She was still super nice though and I enjoyed my lunch. Nothing bad here to warrant less than 4 stars, but there's way better meals to be had in the same strip mall. read more

Spoon & Pork is a modern Filipino comfort food restaurant. No wait for a Friday night dinner in Sawtelle, so that was a plus. For two, we got the lumpia shanghai, brussels sprouts, patita, and garlic rice to share. Lumpia Shanghai - Crispy! We got charged $1 for additional sauce when they initially gave us very little to start with. Other than that, good appetizer. Brussels Sprouts - A bit too burnt, leaving a little bitter after taste. Very crunchy though! Patitia - The best part of the meal. Slow cooked pork in a chili garlic glaze. I enjoyed the skin the most as it was so crispy. It did have a strong pork smell (not a fan of). Do note that there is a 18% gratuity for all bills. Overall, not a perfect meal but pretty good Filipino food! read more

Wanted to try this location for some time. I went to the Sunset location years ago and really liked it. The owner chef was there at Sawtelle when we were there and was so cool. What a sweet dude. It's a cute shop. The server was not very patient with us and was not too helpful which was a bummer. Im not very familiar with Filipino dishes so I had questions about the menu. She was quite impatient. Fortunately we liked what we ordered. Lucky guess! It was a yummy meal. Hopeful if I return the service will be more welcoming. . read more
