Their halo-halo is absolutely delicious! It tastes just like the halo-halo from my hometown in the Philippines. Every spoonful is a perfect blend of flavors and textures--sweet, creamy, and refreshing. It instantly brought back childhood memories. If you're craving an authentic and satisfying halo-halo, this place is a must-visit! i will keep coming back here to eat.

Kare-kare is my favorite so I had to try this dish out. For $17.58, the braise beef kare-karesilog was definitely worth it. Portion size is generous. There was plenty of beef and veggies.

Girl was rude, ignoring requests for sauce and napkins. 1.5/5 Suggestions- Dont let that skinny girl work on the peak of her period anymore, shes revolting. Treated me like if i was staring at her and not asking for stuff . Wouldnt let me browze the confusing little menu . Whoever was there before was better.

I've had seniorita bread before but didn't expect to get it here. Walked in and it's a small storefront that shares space with a boba tea shop. The lady was very nice. I ordered a 10 piece of seniorita bread so that I would have some to snack on later. It took a few minutes but she came back with my box and the bread was still warm. Not too sweet, buttery, delicious! I'll be back if I'm in this area again.

Mold warning. Beware of refrigerated items sold at this location. I purchased a buko pie ($12) and…read moreit had mold growing across the entire pie. I didn't notice until I got home because the lid was clouded from condensation. Because I live far away, I called about it and offered to send a video. Instead of offering a refund, they said they'd allow me to come back for a new pie. I called months later to pick up the replacement pie since I was going to be in the area. They said they were out of buko pies and I could choose another--they apparently only had pies available at a lesser value and would comp with senorita bread. I also received a phone lecture from Joy (through Carmela) that this wouldn't be allowed next time... I'd prefer not being sold a moldy pie next time. Thanks! Upon pick up, they only offered the cassava pie ($7), even though buko pies were in the display. No senorita bread given as promised. Condescending service. They'll sell you food that can make you sick and make you out to be in the wrong. In retrospect, I shouldn't have bothered over $12. Ling Nam, please double check your fridge temperatures and throw out pies once they're old. Or sell them frozen.

Row’s Roll

AWARENESS: Following the Moral, Welfare and Recreation…read more(MWR), San Joaquin's page on Facebook, I learned for the next few weeks, some local food trucks would be on the base during lunch hours offering up some specialty food items for sale. Row's Roll, which I've had bookmarked for some time was on the list so, I decided to check it out. NARRATIVE: On January 23, 2026, I headed to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) in San Joaquin to check out Row's Roll food truck for lunch. Arriving, I located Row's Roll truck parked amongst four other trucks in at the North end of base. After looking at the menu and not being to decide on just one item, I ordered; Chicken Adobo, Pancit and Lumpia to take home. With the order placed, I waited about ten minutes when I got the "your foods ready" from Row. Once at home, I took a few pictures of the food items before I dug in and here's what I have to say about the various items. Pancit - Nice and hot glass noodles sprinkled with diced green onions, Carrots and cabbage. Very good. Chicken Adobo - Three good size pieces of lightly breaded chicken and an over easy egg sitting on top of some very tasty and seasoned rice with two pieces of Lumpia as ad added bonus and nice addition. Again, very good. Lumpia - I believe seven pieces of pork filled Lumpia which was served al a carte with a sweet sauce. The Lumpia was crispy, hot and had that perfect crunch. Very good again. SCENE: Normally, Row's Roll is located at the Lathrop Food Truck Plaza. But for thee next few weeks, she and her truck will be doing lunch (0800-1400) at the DLA San Joaquin - Tracy, which is a Department of War installation requiring credited credentials for access. RECOMMENDATION(S): If you have access to visit Row's Roll at DLA for the next few weeks, take advantage. If not, she and her truck will be back in Lathrop soon. You can follow Row's Roll on Instagram or text to find their location.

As a Kapampangan-style spot, the flavors here are bold, traditional, and consistent. Honestly, walking out with just one item is a physical impossibility--the aroma alone will make you order half the menu! My husband and I usually swing by for a "lutong bahay" fix on days we aren't cooking. The place is clean and the staff is incredibly welcoming, treating you like family the second you step through the door.

I hadn't eaten Filipino cuisine for some time, so she treated me for grubs at Sisig & Boba. When entering there's plenty of space. I didn't ask , but it looks like they have karaoke nights cuz of the TV, and perhaps dancing. Food is cooked fresh, so get the best of it early. They offer combo plates or separate entrees; lots of dishes to choose from, a full fridge of beverages, and desserts. Booths are large enough to seat 4-6 people. The employees multitask with ease. Great and friendly service. Walking out of this restaurant with just one item in hand is least likely. It all looks too appetizing!

It is located in a small plaza so there's ample parking. Although it is not a big place, it is clean and organized with plenty of tables and the food is BIG in authentic Filipino flavor. This spot offers buffet style serving a variety of Filipino food. You can order à la carte as well as their 1 item or 2 item plate specials. This visit I ordered a 2 item special with the 2 pcs veggie lumpia, monggo bean stew and half rice/half pancit. So delicious just like how my mom and dad used to cook Filipino food. For dessert, gotta get halo halo Lol Sooo good! They also sell some Filipino ice cream. There is a small butcher shop inside offering a few select fresh cut meat, along with fresh longoniza (Filipino sweet sausage). And a few doors down, they also have a small supermarket.

From pastries to fried mochi balls on a stick, to melon drinks! Always delicious. NOT the best halo-halo around town, but not the worst either.

I typically order 2 full slices and cut it up myself at home, or gorge on it in the car on the way back. I like the dinuguan and the pinakbet! Chat it up with the in-house butcher for some fresh fish and meats!

We also got a 6pc order of lumpia, half chicken, half pork so that was nice you can pick. The lumpia was freshly fried, you could feel it through the bag, and still hot when we got home. I think I preferred the pork over the chicken filling. The pork sisig was a bit tough and on the charred side and overall a bit hard to eat. It didn't taste fresh. the garlic rice was good though, soft, and fragrant and the portion was generous. the fried egg was cooked well too. Just was hoping for a better pork sisig, and it had white stuff in it. at first we thought it was like melted mozzarella cheese that was cooked w/the pork, but it wasn't cheese....not sure what it was. They make the food to order and it took a while to come out. In the meantime we walked around the store a couple times but then I went to take a seat outside at the table. I would be interested in coming back to try one of their other breakfast items.
