Kadok's brings me so much joy and nostalgia. I'm glad they're still up and running, even at their new location in Daly City. The ambiance is very cozy yet warm. My mom and I ate here for an early dinner, and there was adequate seating. I ordered a Chicken Mami with Pork Asado Siopao while my mom opted for a Pancit Malabon plate with Pork BBQ and Lumpiang Shanghai. We received our orders in less than 10 minutes for dine in. The mami was flavorful and the noodles were fresh and not soggy. The siopao was moist, sweet, savory and tender. I tried a bit of the pork bbq and it still tasted great like the first time I tried it 20+ years ago. The Gulaman Sago was not too sweet, but the sago pearls could've been fresher on my next try. Kadok's is truly my go-to place for their pork barbecue, chicken mami and more for all occasions! read more

Just got done eating. We ordered 2 arroz caldo for this rainy weather. The arroz caldo was very delicious. Came out steaming hot. Definitely made for Cold and rainy weather. Portion was huge for the price. Per order it's $8.25. Love how they top it with chicharron and their big pieces. Little bummed out they didn't have my fav -- goto. But that's okay. Arroz caldo will do just fine! Wonderful and fast service. Order came out less than 5 mins after ordering. Also, that's like me you get the headache and shit. The establishment is very clean and well kept. They work super hard here. Love coming here. This is the house of best Goto and Arroz caldo. read more

I got the bangus with shrimp paste and it was super filling and good. Honestly one of the best bangus variations I've tried! The service was decent and the ambiance of the resturant wasn't too pleasant as the space was a bit small. Although I understand since it's a small business. read more

Great place to have some feel good Filipino food. With the usual classics to some more robust and hearty dishes, it feels like home cooking and definitely enjoyable. I did notice that my beloved Dinuguan was not offered and another soup-like dish, boo!! But other foods are well made and yum! Order from the kiosk and sit down in the self seating area--it's rather small and compact. You'll need to bus your own table and maybe clean up after the previous patrons--but I feel like most orders are probably to go? Service was what you'd expect at a fast casual joint. And I love seeing Filipinos of all generations (mostly the older generations) spend time here eating porridge and soups. Parking in the big open shared lot outside. read more

Service is kind, but slow to clean the tables as we wanted to sit and eat. Food is good. Love that the goto came out so hot! Everything tasted good, just that the bbq was kind of tough to eat. read more

Never actually opened or has anything. Always getting hit with we're close even if you go there an hour early. Wonder what time is the actual operation hours because it seem to either doesn't want to sell halo halo or be opened? read more

I ordered the M4 goto and specifically requested tokwa only because I can't eat pork. Unfortunately, the dish I received still had pork rinds in it instead of beef tripe. Please pay more attention to special requests and dietary restrictions next time. I could have ordered arros caldo instead of goto if no tripe. read more

So good! It takes me back to the comfort of my Lola's cooking. Service was quick and easy where you order at the counter. Restaurant is really small and can only sit about max 50 people or a little less. But that's okay. I'm only here for the food which hit the spot :) read more

Finally got a chance to check this place out. The menu they have posted in the shop is not everything they have available. Their online menu noted additional items and combos. Went with the Pancit Malabon w/ Lechon. Maybe about a 10 minute wait for the order to be ready. May not look like a lot but it was quite filling. The lechon was crispy and not too fatty - only wished I had the soy vinegar sauce to go along with it. The pancit was good but maybe an additional lemon wedge would've been good. read more

We were headed to a family potluck and I was in need of bringing something that would be enjoyed by various age groups and picky eaters. I placed an order for 75 lumpia from here - the online process was easy and straightforward and my order was ready when it was supposed to be. It made for an easy pickup experience and everyone loved the lumpia. They were fresh, crispy, and delicious. Sweet and sour dipping sauce is provided on the side. I look forward to coming back to The Original Kadok's and sampling more of the items on their menu! read more

We both ordered something off the Merienda menu. The Malabon BBQ Shanghai was excellent. The Malabon was tasty, saucy, and had a bunch of different (yet pleasing) textures. The goto-tokwa't baboy combo is always a favorite. I really enjoyed the tripe in my goto. I think my favorite part was the crunch bits of chicharron and fried garlic as garnishes. They were really generous with it. The people were so kind. You do have to bus your own table, but there wasn't much going on so they took over for me in bussing my table. I would like to go back and try the Dubai halo-halo read more

Ordered a party tray of lumpia for thanksgiving. Everything about the process was smooth. Order was set for 10 am. Picked it up at 10:30 and it was all ready to go. In fact, the lumpia was the biggest hit! It was all gone halfway throughout our time together. Everyone who had a few pieces loved it. Will be my go-to for lumpia in the future read more

Went to Kadoks on a Friday afternoon to pick up some lumpia, palabok, and arroz caldo. Overall, it went well. Food prices are just right and the food always hits the spot. The folks running the restaurant were kind and answered any questions we had. We paid cash and were given free arroz caldo which is great. The restaurant could use some changes to decor to make it more inviting to sit and eat there but nothing to complain about there. I always visit this spot and continue to! read more

I have tried to eat at this place for at least 4 times but the employees are always seemingly busy in the end of the store and never at the cashier and even though they saw me they dont approach but strangely the moment a Philippine person enters the store they go talk to the person, i would not be saying this but LITERALLY this has happened 3 of my 4 times trying to but here so i am done entering this store and i guess maybe the store is exclusive to some people. read more

3.5 Good prices and variety. Located in a plaza, so parking is available. There was a few seats available if you were to dine in. Ordered online for pickup and everything was ready when I got there and service was friendly! Food: - Malabon con lechon kawali: Wish they had pancit palabok instead of malabon. The lechon kawali was good. - Bihon/BBQ/Shanghai??: I forgot which one I ordered ... the dish was good. - Lumpia gulay: Can't really go wrong with lumpia! Would recommend ordering more than one. read more

This spot is an awesome no frills type of place! I've ordered so far their bangus sisig and bangus silog and both do not disappoint! I typically like to order online through their website and then pick up. So far I've had no bad experiences and everything has been super quick. The bangus sisig is so delicious, it's creamy and flavorful and pairs well with their garlic rice. The garlic rice is packed with flavor and is a nice add on to the main entree. The bangus silog is a different texture then others I've had bring it seems fried in a batter? But nonetheless it is still super yum and the portions are great for the price. I would recommend trying this place out and I'm excited to try other dishes from them. read more

I got lunch here recently. It was alright. You get quite a bit of food for your money.

I went to the UPS store nearby and was looking for a spot to grab lunch. I almost went to Red Ribbons but noticed Kadok's and decided to give it a try. I ordered the Malabon with BBQ and lumpia. The Malabon reminded me of my favorite, palabok--I didn't even know the difference until I looked it up, lol. The lumpia was nice and crispy, and the BBQ was decent. The girl at the counter was really nice and respectful, addressing people with "po." The place is small, so seating is limited, but I definitely want to come back to try their halo-halo. read more

The food is good, but be weary of the people that provides you with the food, I was there twice different months & I witnessed that they do not wear gloves in getting the food, but with their bare hands - so it is direct contact - this was the furst time. The 2nd time that I saw this happened was when the cashier touched cash from the register & then grabbed the siopao for a customer who was waiting in front of the cash register, put this on a plate & served this to the customer which made me really want to say as undanitary! I like the food at Kadok's, but this is makimg me think before I go there again. This is sad! read more

I recently bought their vegetable lumpias, $45 for 20 pieces (frozen). When I cooked them and tried their lumpia, it's not vegetable lumpias, Cabbage lumpia. The only vegetables they put is cabbage and carrots! Anong klase g vegetable lumpia yan, sobrang madaya! Di man lang nilagyan ng green beans, corn, or any other vegetable for vegetable lumpia. Mura kase ang repolyo. Grabe!!! read more

First time eating here today. Filipino food is one of my favorite things to eat. I ordered the tocilog play and a side of lumpia. Everything was really good. The tocino was sweet and savory. And the portion size was good. The garlic rice was really flavorful as well and I like their spiced house vinegar. Service was really good and we got our food quickly. Definitely going to come back as there's a lot of items on the menu. I want to try. Also, my friend had several different dishes and one of them was the fried tofu, which was really good. Definitely a good appetizer. read more

A lot of people love to regard some restaurants as "authentic," but I disagree with a lot of their reviews because what really is authentic when it comes to Filipino food where there are so many regions and food flavors and their authenticity is just as varied. However, these folks serve some of the quintessential Filipino dishes, the mainstream ones you'd expect from a Manila restaurant. Their flavors are spot on and if you're hankering for the classic taste, this place hits the spot. They say that over time, as generations go by, people lose a bit of their culture, whether it's traditions, religion, clothing styles, but what tends to linger through all that is their taste for food. I think that any Filipino would appreciate how this place remains true to the originality of its Filipino-ness. And if you haven't ever had Filipino food and are willing to jump in for a try, this is a good place for your starter restaurant. A word of warning, it's a place you'd be wanting to go back to over and over again! read more

We found clear push pin in our $18 kaldereta meal that we about to eat! Stay away from this business! No quality control for food and it's concerning to see that the food we eating came with clear push pin, was hard to tell and was hard to catch! Stay away! Specially for geriatrics . You don't know what you about to end up with! ER or bathrooms! read more

Ordered the peri-peri chicken and loved the flavor on the chicken and the rice! Really compliments each other and the veggies round out the full meal. Good portions and even had some leftover for later. Their BBQ Pork skewers were also great for an afternoon snack. Good customer service and seating if you want to eat in. Ordered to go and we didn't have to wait long for our order, and it was still hot when we got home. read more

It was really good! We had the tocilog and my friend had chicken. We also got fishball and lumpia. Lumpia was my favorite here. One thing we didn't like was the dubai chocolate halo-halo - the flavors and contents just didn't jive well. Service was quick and friendly. read more

I mainly come here for the halo-halo -- the matcha one is my fave so far! They've got cool flavors like ube, pandan, and Dubai chocolate too. Just a heads up: the halo-halo can run out, so call ahead if you're going later in the day to see if they have any left. The first time I ordered, service was a bit slow (one of the staff members seemed unsure how to make the matcha one), but my second visit went smoothly and was much quicker. I do wish they added leche flan, though! Food looks great, so I'll be back to try more. Limited seating inside, but parking's easy since it's in a plaza. read more

Shrimp in pancit should be fresh and fried fish less greasy. Crispy pata is ok if was less greasy.

Picked up my bf at the airport, and I was so excited to try this place and it's been awhile... they used to have it in Milpitas. I got Sisig silog 7/10, flavor is great but unfortunately I didn't enjoy it because the meat was a little hard and even the rice it was cold, should be freshly cook. We came here at 8:30am and the order was ready few minutes.. He order Lechon silos it was good but the rice was too hard like I said it's not "freshly cook." The lechon was juicy and crunchy, at least he enjoyed his food I was disappointed on my food. The staff are friendly and clean place. read more

I heard about this spot from tiktok and wanted to come try it for the first time. It's pretty cozy and the staff are super friendly. I wanted to try their new best seller, the peri peri chicken w/ java rice. It was a pretty large portion and everything was seasoned so well. The chicken was fall off the bone tender at some spots but other's it was a tad dry but easily fixed by dipping into some of that sauce. The sauce is has that pungency from the garlic and is reminiscent from the garlic white sauce spread you get at mediterranean spots, just a bit more tangy here. The rice was super good, great texture and taste, but I was just expecting it to look more orange from the pictures so I'm actually not sure if what I got was the java rice or just garlic rice. I'll be back to try more things again for sure. read more
