Not very experienced with Filipino food but I dare to say that lumpia is perfectly made and it's gonna be hard to find a better one. The pork filling is well seasoned and so juicy. Eat it while it's hot and there's still soup inside. The wrapper is very crunchy. This lumpia is addicting and worth a trip for it alone. Tried a couple other dishes. They are good but just not impressive to me. I do like the pancit, simple taste but really good. Will come back to try their rice plates. read more

My favorite spot to meet up with my classmate/dentist! * The Food: The bangsilog is my go-to--perfectly fried, savory milkfish paired with a refreshing mimosa to take the edge off the week. * The Staff: They are the highlight. Friendly, fast, and genuinely welcoming every single time I walk through the door. Reliable comfort food and even better service. If you need to decompress after work, this is the spot. read more

Drinks: *Ube Ale *Lychee Sangria Food: *Longsilog and Lechon Kawali Silog *Tocilog and Lechon Kawali Silog Both of our plates come with a fried egg and garlic rice. Service is speedy and food is delicious. Great for parties small and big. read more

Tapsilog Bistro - Filipino Near Me - Campbell, California

We've dined at Tapsilog Bistro several times, and I've been meaning to write this review for a while now. Most recently, one of our (non-filipino) physician colleagues was retiring and specifically requested sisig for his retirement lunch. Without hesitation, Tapsilog Bistro was at the top of my list and it did not disappoint. Their sisig is absolutely delicious, hearty and perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. Overall, this place is about as close as you can get to home-cooked Filipino food outside of someone's kitchen. Everything we've tried has been consistently excellent. Highly recommend the Sisig, Silogs, Kare-Kare, Lechon Kawali, Ensaladang Talong, Seafood Sinigang, and especially the Kamayan Bilao, which is perfect for sharing. We absolutely love this place and will continue coming back. If you're craving authentic, comforting Filipino food, Tapsilog Bistro is a must-visit. read more

8/30/25 I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now and it didn't disappoint! I've tried a lot of silogs in the Bay Area and Tapsilog Bistro is definitely a strong contender! What I liked the most is the variety of the silogs! I got a combination with Bistek & Spam. The Bistek was tender and the flavor was there while the Spam was cooked to perfection! Definitely check this spot out if you're in the South Bay and craving Filipino food! I like Tapsilog Bistro. read more

The food and service was great. They had a lot of authentic Filipino dishes and even a little "market" area where you can purchase popular asian groceries. Kind of expensive but most Filipino places are on the pricier side so it was expected. Would come back in the future read more

The server, ambiance and menu options are ok, but obviously, they were understaffed. The sizzling porchop and grilled pork was way salty (maybe the cook poured the same amount of iodized salt instead of rock salt). The garlic rice has undercooked garlic. The common shortcoming of Filipino restaurants in the US is that the person they hire to cook are not cooks by profession/expertise but people who just needed a job. I think this is what happened here. Like who would not taste what they prepare? At this day and age, they still charge for credit card surcharge but they don't accept cash either. Better go to Isla instead where the food is consistent. read more

Wanted to check this place out for a while now because of all the great reviews and food pictures. The inside kind of looks like a sports bar meets BBQ joint. Pictures everywhere, multiple TVs and beer taps hanging from walls. Wifey and I were told to grab a seat. A couple of minutes later we were greeted by our server, who was very patient with us as we did not know what to order and had many questions. " unfortunately that's where the service stopped, "I was never even offered a refill for my water" Wifey and I both ended up getting the three meat build your own Bilao. For the meats, I got the chicken adobo, fried chicken and substituted a meat for the Pancit noodles. It also comes with an egg, cucumbers in a refreshing and tasty juice, and garlic rice. The rundown: #1. If you are looking for quantity of food then this is your place "just look at the pictures" they give you massive amounts of food! 5 stars. #2. The chicken Adobo was good but very dry, slightly bland. 2.5 stars #3. The fried chicken was way overcooked, greasy dry and super chewy 1star. #4. The noodles were good but very oily, I had to stop eating them due to the heaviness of the oil. 2 Stars. #5. The garlic rice. I could definitely taste the garlic in the rice but the rice completely lacked seasoning, I could not even taste any salt in the rice. 1.5 stars. Bottom line: I'm not sure if I showed up on an off night but there is no way this place should have a 4 star rating "IMO" read more

Food here is nice and filling. I went in on a weekday and ordered a bunch, order was done in 20 min. Gourmet Burrito with Pork Adobo is 6/10, too salty for my taste Garlic Rice is 8/10 Chicken Skewer is 8/10 Chicken Adobo Silog 7.5/10 Sarah has a great attitude! read more

Highlights: & Good service & Garlic rice was great & Note surcharge of 3% (on subtotal) for using a credit card Food: &Mango juice &Build your own personal bilao (2 meats): pork adobo silog and bisteksilog. In the picture it is biskteksilog (left) and pork adobo (right). As I am not familiar with Filipino menu items (yet), I went with pork adobo as that sounded familiar. Next time I'd like to try another item. The pork was a tad on the dry side (as pork tends to be). The bistek was cut into small chunks which was easier to eat. It had a slight sour taste, though it was good when combined with the garlic rice. Service was solid. They were attentive, though they also gave me space when I wanted it. First time visiting Tapsilog Cantina and generally new to eating at Filipino restaurants (though I've been meaning to try more after loving eating home cooked Filipino cuisine at friends/family's homes). read more

Came for brunch on a Sunday afternoon. Yelp filters said it had outdoor seating so we brought our dogs, but we were very disappointed they didn't actually have patio seating. Poor dogs had to stay in the car, but luckily it was a winter day. There was a good amount of people and felt pretty lively. BUT OMG why was the service soooo slow. Ordered two of the loaded bloody mary's and it took forever. At least it was good. Came with a bacon strip, celery, orange slice, and cherry... The menu feels disorganized and just a little confusing, not too user friendly, but just feels like a dad put together a menu, haha. Ordered the eggplant omelet silog dish and it felt too greasy for me and flavors just didn't hit enough. Wanted GARLICKY garlic rice, but didn't deliver. The bf ordered the special, bagnet bagoong, a pork belly dish topped with fried eggplant. He is Filipino, but he didn't rave too much about it, and said it was mid. Would be willing to come back again to try other items. read more

Amazing Filipino food in the South Bay! Loved the food and HUGE portions here, highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Filipino food. Pro tip - ask for fresh chilies with your meal, takes it to another level!

I love Tapsilog Bistro. It is a must-visit whenever I am staying in the area. I have been going there for years, and I bring friends and they enjoy it too. Tapsilog Bistro is such a homey place for locals, even if the service is ordinary. The prices are not the cheapest but definitely worth what you get. My only issue in the past has been navigating the menu, just because it is a very big and dense menu. But that means you can come back again and again to try new items! read more

Tapsilog Bistro - Two meat Silog (deep-fried pork belly and corned beef hash) - Filipino Near Me - Campbell, California

Been there twice, but not in last 4 years. It was great, really good flavors, authentic preparation. Service was good, nothing exceptional. A little pricey. Tapsilog is good standby, if you're in the mood for some solid and elevated Filipino food, not street food! read more

Amazing restaurant!! It's been around the area for many years but I never got a chance to try until now. We ordered: 1) make your own plate: got the sweet sausage, the tapsilong beef, and lechon. Lechon was VERY crispy and juicy. I don't recommend getting the tapsilong beef (it's very salty and chewy). Sweet sausage tastes good too! The egg is made just perfectly and runny yolk coming out when you cut it in half. 2) bola bola: basically fried fish ball with sweet and sour sauce. It's decent. 3) lumpia: must have!!! Very crispy and amazing flavor inside. It matches with sauce extremely well. 4) chalamensi and melon juice are high quality as well. Great service as well. The only down side is they don't have AC so it can be challenging in summer time. I will for sure and return and try other items on the menu! read more

Overall a good experience for classic Filipino breakfast. They have a lot of options in the menu but I just wanted their silog plates. The tocilog (3/5) was good but I had a couple fat pieces. Next time I'd ask for it to be cooked extra cuz I like my tocino toasted. The Tapsilog (3/5) was also good and a bit too salty. I would also ask for this to be cooked extra since I like my tapa crispy. Overall a nice experience. read more

The food was just okay. I ordered for a bagoong and it tasted like sweet ketchup so I asked the waiter why is this so and he said that the US banned bagoong so they had to create their own but it didn't taste like bagoong. The place was clean and cute but the food was just normal. read more

Been meaning to come by here as there aren't many Filipino places in South Bay. Disclaimer: I am born and raised Filipino. This place exceeds my expectations. Only tried their lumpia Shanghai take out, first time eating there in person. The decor takes you back to the mainland a bit. They even have beers and spirits from there. Food: Everything was good! The pancit was probably my favorite. The pork sisig was good but next time I'll try the Bangus sisig with medium spice. The breakfast plate brought me back to morning as a kid eating this. Would come back here with my family and friends for a kamayan for sure. Also try other dishes too read more

Tapsilog bistro is a lowkey filipino restaurant with a bar kinda vibe. They have a few interesting fusion dishes that have a great taste to it. Service is fantastic, if you don't know what to order the people there are more than happy to help you and very kind and easy to talk to Hospitality is at its finest for sure here. The lumpia was piping hot and fantastic. Their 2 meat silog was also great. Overall food was great and had big portion sizes We also got free ice cream! Note there is a 3% credit card usage fee so pay with cash if u prefer Overall parking is easy read more

One of our favorite spots in South Bay for brunch and Filipino comfort food fix. Always feel like family when we come here. We haven't had trouble getting seated on weekends although heard that it can get a bit busy after church. Service is always so warm, attentive and quick. The silog dishes are by far our favorites and regular orders. We always get lechon (probably my favorite lechon anywhere) and lumpia. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to try Filipino food and needing comfort food. read more

I would rate this place closer to a 3.5. The restaurant was decorated with lots of sports memorabilia and medals. We came in on a Saturday around lunch and it wasn't too crowded! Service was prompt. The food was just okay. My boyfriend and I expected the sisig to be crispier but he thought the flavor was solid. Just wasn't the type of sisig we were used to. I liked how the fried tilapia came with some veggies. Mixing it with the fried fish added to the dish. Prices were higher than what I'm used as well. We would come back again but maybe try some different dishes. read more

Filipino Food in the San Jose area! I've been meaning to try more Filipino food here in the South Bay and I've seen this place get hyped up on Yelp and Tiktok so I decided to take a friend here to give it a try! Though it was branded as a Filipino restaurant, the ambiance gave off more of a typical American fried chicken restaurant. I also noticed that the restaurant was understaffed but the server did do his best to serve us as we ordered the Chicken Pancit Guisado Noodles, Dinuguan Na Baboy, and Turon Ala Mode. Chicken Pancit Guisado Noodles was a 6/10. It's pretty hard to go wrong with Pancit as the order was enough for the two of us, though, I will say they did not give us a lot of meat for the order. Dinuguan Na Baboy was a 7/10. Since dinuguan is my favorite dish, I was so excited to try it and it met expectations! I do find the portions for both the rice and dinuguan questionable. Turon Ala Mode was a 5/10. The Ube ice cream combined with the Pinoy Banana Fritter was really good, though we did not get the cherry, almond, and chocolate syrup along with that dessert as mentioned on the menu. Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Tapsilog Bistro! The reason for the 3 stars came down to the food portions and overall restaurant experience. Whenever I go to a Filipino restaurant, I'm used to having much more generous portions for the amount that I paid. I also think the restaurant could use more decorations that represent Filipino culture since I got thrown off by the lack of that when I first came in. read more

My friend and I like to try different cultures food and we wanted to try Filipino food. I ordered the Grand Silog four meat combo plate to try a little bit of everything. I got Crispy Chicken Wing, Crispy Pork Belly, Sweet Sausage and Tapsilog beef. My favorite was the sweet sausage, but everything tasted really good. The combo comes with garlic rice and two fried eggs on top. Only negative was the fried eggs were over cooked, so no runny yoke for the rice. The rice needed it badly here. I have seen in other pictures the eggs are cooked sunny side up. This should be standard each and every time. The service was good. If you want some stick to your ribs comfort food, definitely give Filipino a try. read more

Tapsilog was really salty, and for the garlic rice, there was no hint of garlic. Sisig is just mid, I asked the crew if they have mayonnaise and they said they don't have it.

Wow! This place really looks nice inside. I saw their restaurant name sign outside and seems like they haven't changed it since they opened, which is a bout a decade ago. Anyways, you can see that there are plenty of decorations inside and it's mostly about sports. It also gives you a good vibe of living in the Philippines since the environment of that place tends to be like. Let's talk about the food. I am quite impressed that they serve us food in more cultural plates with a leaf sticking at the top. The food is also delicious and authentic. Really great choice of seasonings especially on the garlic rice and pork sisig! No wonder this place is so popular especially on Yelp. It's also great that they leave utensils out there unlike most restaurants where you have to ask them for extra. Honestly wish that they have more individual plates options in the menu, but that's fine. I came here for breakfast and popularity of it anyways! read more

Stopped by here on a Saturday for lunch after having this place bookmarked for quite some time! We were hoping they would have more outdoor dining available so that we could sit with our dogs, but they only had three small tables outside. The place was quite packed, with a few large parties seated at the longer tables inside, but thankfully we were able to get a small high table right away. They were BUSY so it took a while for our food and drinks to come out, but we didn't mind since it looked like they were pretty short on staff. We ordered the 2 meat silog plate with lechon kawali and longanisa. The meats were both pretty tasty, and I enjoyed the pickled cucumbers that came with the plate. The garlic rice was a little plain for me and could have used a bit more garlic, but otherwise the silog plate was solid. We also ordered the pork sisig fries which were a bit disappointing. The sisig pieces were a little too big to make a cohesive dish wish the fries, and I also felt it was lacking in flavor despite the lemon, salsa and guac that came with the plate. I probably wouldn't get this again. We ordered some diniguan to-go to take home and I grabbed a bite of it while it was still hot. This was made very well and I was pleasantly surprised by the large portion. We also ordered the nafrada osa (calamansi juice, strawberry puree, champagne) and lychee sangria. Both drinks were very yummy! The only thing I did not like about the nafrada osa is that the strawberry puree was too chunky to go through my straw so I had to leave most of it behind :) I'm very picky about Filipino food but this place is legit! I had high hopes and was excited as soon as we walked in and I saw vinegar and Mang Tomas on the table. I would recommended sticking to classic Filipino dishes and entrees here (no sisig fries for me next time). They also had a lot of Filipino desserts and drinks, including San Mig beer. read more

Came here with family and it was a HIT! We ordered the Alfonso Sample Platter, Pork Binagoongan, Bicol Express, and Nilagang Baka. Absolutely love that the sample platters come with ayce rice!! You know we went IN on that garlic rice. My favorite items were the pork binagoongan and the bangus and crispy pata from the sample platter. The fried items were perfectly light and crispy and went great with the provided vinegars. The binagnoongan was still crispy despite being stewed together with the tomatoes and sauce; we just did not understand the magic. If you order the nilagang baka, beware it is HOTTT. I'm pretty sure they just take the pot directly off the stove and put it on your table bc it is STEAMINN. It personally wasn't my favorite as I felt it was too oily for my tastes, but it did help warm me up. Of course we have to end the meal with a halo-halo and their ube ice cream is SO THICC and decadent! It must be homemade because of how creamy it was. Or if it's not, I gotta learn where to buy it from! read more

This would be my first time coming here after so many years - Definitely one of the best Filipino restaurants I've been to. The service was astounding, I brought my dog with me during lunch so we were able to get seated outside. Our server even brought him his own water bowl which was awesome. We were craving a hearty breakfast and Tapsilog Bistro definitely served exactly that! We ordered breakfast/brunch food that consisted of eggs, rice and meat, as long with pork lumpia as an appetizer. Everything tasted great, decent portions for the price. Overall, a great experience. I would definitely be coming back soon! read more

Forever one of my favorite places to get some DELICIOUS Filipino food. The pork sisig is always my favorite.

Never got to eat here so the review is about customer service. Was excited to eat some Filipino thought I would try this place. Walked in smiling, looked at a man standing in the restaurant. He asked, "To go?". He looked like he was having a bad day. I said, "For here." Still smiling. He asked again, "To go?". I was loud enough the first time but repeated myself. He asked the same thing again so I left. He must have wanted me "to go", so I went to eat somewhere else. read more

Love love love every single dish here! I can't get enough of the meaty and juicy skewers. The sinigang was so good that it reminds me of canh sấu (a Northern Vietnamese sour soup).

Tapsilog Bistro - Bangus + Lechon Kawali w/ garlic rice and sunny side egg on top - Filipino Near Me - Campbell, California

We've been fans of Tapsilog Bistro in the past--drawn in not just by the food, but by the warm, family-style hospitality that made the place feel like a hidden gem. Unfortunately, our most recent visit was anything but that. The service was surprisingly below par. Dishes came out in a random, confusing order, with one meal not arriving at all until we finally followed up. Even then, we were told it was "just made," but the first bite revealed it was cold. If they had simply been upfront that it was forgotten and needed a few extra minutes, it would've been far easier to understand. Instead, it felt like they rushed it out to save face, which only made things worse. When we let the server know we'd prefer to skip the late, cold dish altogether, the reaction was visibly sour--leaving us feeling awkward, rather than cared for. That was the biggest disappointment of all, especially from a place known for warmth and hospitality. It's hard to say this after previous great experiences, but unless something changes, we won't be returning. Restaurants make mistakes--it happens. But how those moments are handled is what builds (or breaks) trust. And sadly, this time around, it was the latter. read more

Tapsilog Bistro is one of my go-to restaurants when I'm craving Filipino food! It's really hard to go to a Filipino restaurant and order your favorite dishes when you're so used to the way your parents cooked growing up. But this place always hits the spot. The space isn't too big, but feels very cozy and familiar. We came here for Sunday brunch, as we wanted to avoid the hour long wait times for the more typical brunch restaurants. Since we were craving breakfast, we had to order their "silog" options. There's no such thing as Filipino breakfast without a fried egg lol. We got the bangsilog and sisilog, and both were so full of flavor. The garlic rice and vinegar dipping sauce tied everything together. It was reminiscent of having breakfast with my grandparents in The Philippines. We also got some mimosas, which tasted really good and were pretty strong (to our liking). Will continue coming back here for my Filipino food cravings! read more

We couldn't believe it, after years of ordering food from here and going in person as well. The food doesn't taste the same, for example dry pancit no flavor, and the chicken adobo was all SALT. The service was bad, we walked in and waited, we seated ourselves. Asked if we could order. Then after order - nothing for over 1 hour. Asked to have it to go, they question and show some of the food is in a plate. Tell us, are the real owners on vacation? read more
