We were with the family and wanted to try another new spot, so we entered a food truck park on Cesar Chavez st and selected Tito adobo first because I've had a craving for lumpias and they had it! Everyone loved them! Next I will order a lot more just so I have leftovers. Lol The guy running the show is such a friendly dude and smiling all the time. I love it when people just spread their joy. So he said he had hot hot sauce if anyone wanted to try and my husband, being able to handle ghost pepper and then some, wanted to try his hottest. Well! He has some hot stuff because the hubby got sweaty and eyes watery lol that rarely happens. We also had a drink there that was so delicious! It had plum and pineapple. Sorry, don't remember the name. Lol It's a nice little food truck park with about 4-5 options of food trucks. I will definitely be coming back for more and trying the other options as well. read more

Fantastic Filipino food with exceptional service! We had both their special of the day which was a sugar and vinegar braised pork that was melt in your mouth delicious served over white rice with their signature Apple Jicima Slaw. I could eat the slaw all day and it perfectly compliments the richness of the pork fat. I often find Filipino food comforting, but this dish took it a step further reminding me of a brown sugar roast chicken that was one of my favorite dishes my mom made. That's hard to pull off. We also had their Adobo Fried rice which was excellent too. We were able to customize the accompanying spiced vinegar to our spiciness preference. More spice means more Carolina Reaper pepper which I gladly welcomed. Tried their Pancit which was tasty and the noodles were done perfectly. Now for the star of the show, Chef Elvin, just one of the nicest, most genuine people you can encounter and helped make us feel at home and like long time friends. This was such an enjoyable experience. The only thing about Tito Adobo that makes me sad, is that they've been around for the past 2 or 3 years and I've only now tried them. I'll have to make up for lost time; I can't wait to return! read more

Tito Adobo - Adobo Fried Rice - great! - Filipino Near Me

A surprisingly damn good food truck offering Filipino food, that's vastly underrepresented in Austin. I arrived on a special day, as they were celebrating an anniversary. I ordered the lechon, along with lumpia, turon, and the ube horchata. The ube horchata could have had more of a horchata taste, but it was more of an ube milk tea with horchata in the backdrop. It was still enjoyable to drink, although wintertime isnt the most refreshing time. The lumpia are quite satisfying. Not the best Ive ever had, but I can tell they use well seasoned pork. It also has a great crunch that doesn't taper off. The sauce that came with it was ok, but nothing memorable. The lechon was executed well. Crispy, crackling outside, along with a tender fat inside. The slaw they offer was actually an enhancement to the meal, with its sweet yet savory zestiness. The sticky rice was also cooked just right. The turon hits the spot with doughy, cinnamon banana goodness, without feeling overwhelming. And the best part is its only 2 bucks! I hope this place sticks around to show some pinoy spirit in Austin. read more

(4.75 stars) If you never had Filipino food before, make sure you make this place as your first visit. FOOD// This is my second Filipino food experience after Be More Pacific. I had his Pork Fried Rice and Lumpia as well as Ube Hojicha, Fried Pork Skin, and toasted nut and garlic that the guy offered to us. I thought the pork in the fried rice very tender and juicy. The fried rice was moist, but it had small clump here and there - if I'm being super picky. This fried rice comes with the salad, which was pretty unique and helped its greasiness off a little. The Lumpia was just too perfect; so, I will live it like that for you to try. The other three that he offered to us WERE off my mind - so good. ATMOSPHERE// It's inside of THAI 5000 food truck area along with 5 other food trucks. The owners were pretty close to each other, which was nice. There are enough sitting area front of each food truck! SERVICE// He was super friendly and patient with us to explain everything one by one. SURROUNDINGS// East Austin. Near Juan in a Million and La Barbeque. read more

I went on weekday evenings and there wasnt any line. The owner was amazing and he offered so many samples until I lost count. They didnt have the pork jowl taco any longer , but I got myself the "filipino-carnitas" taco, chicken adobo taco, and ube horchata. chicken taco was decent, but the carnitas taco was hella spicy! ube horchata was very refreshing especially on this summer weather. Will come back again next time for trying the fried rice PS: parking and seating might be limited read more

YUM!! Tito's food was so good! We got the Pork Adobo Fried Rice and the Shanghai Lumpia. I loved that it was a perfect balance of traditional Filipino dishes with a modern update to it...not food that your old school granny would make but food made by your really cool aunt or uncle that knows how to throw down. The dishes tasted like something familiar yet something really fun and new. I'm always picky of other Filipinos cooking, well, because I've been spoiled by my parents who are great cooks but Tito Adobo really nailed it! Lastly, the owner was incredibly sweet. I know we were eating outside on a picnic table, but he made it feel like we were dining in his home :) #FilipinoHospitality Can't wait to go back! read more

Tito Adobo - Fresh lumpia!! Freaking steal! - Filipino Near Me

This place appears to be very screwed up. My wife's from the Philippines and we wanted to try it. About one month ago, we went to the address on 11th st where the food trucks are. They weren't there any longer. We asked and the other trucks said they moved to 7th street. We went there and no truck there either. We wanted to eat there today. There's no where that it actually says where they are located - on their website or otherwise. A professional establishment would at least have a way to find them - and post the information on their website. This is a heck of a way to run a business when you don't tell people where you are at. We tried calling today. We got hung up on a couple of times. We also had a smart-aleck answer the phone and ask us if we wanted to listen to music. Then, he hung up on us. So, I texted and asked for the location. The 11th street address was texted back. We asked if they're back? We got nothing but rude texts back after that. One text said "they have rats in their food". WTF? I don't know if the owner knows that their customers are being treated this way? We gave the place one star without trying their food. You can't find the place. The people are extremely rude and even vulgar when they texted back (an image of an eggplant shaped a certain way). Anyway, as someone who's been in business a long time, an establishment must be doing very well to not provide their location and to be rude to new customers. Good luck with your business! You'll need it! read more

I went to this place once because a friend of mine introduced it to me, and let's just say from that day, i've been coming back once a week for the past months now. I've literally tried almost everything on the menu and I have nothing bad to say about the food. However, what makes this experience even better is the owner himself. He is always a goofy, sweet, welcoming, warm-hearted guy that always greet you as you are one of his close friends. He is always happy to introduce you to new specials and samples of the day, and for him, it is more joyful to allow you to know more about his food, his culture, your laughs and smiles when you enjoy the food more than anything else. It's always a great time coming here knowing the food will always be great regardless of what, and knowing that there is someone greeting you with a little warmth from the heart! read more

Just amazingly good food served by the sweetest and kindest chef/owner. Easy to see why this place has a 5 star average rating. We got the pork belly Friday special and the meat was cooked to perfection. Tender meat and super crispy but not tooth-cracking skin. Owner is charming and loves giving our samples. Honestly can't think of a thing I don't like about Tito Adobo other than the fact that I wish it were open longer and more often!! read more

Tito Adobo is phenomenal I am half Filipina and this hit the spot in such a new and fun way. I live in Dallas but I was in Austin for the weekend and HAD to stop by. Let's start with the FRESH chicharrones. Oh my goodness. My dad would DIE over these. So fresh and dipped into the spicy vinegar they are... perfection. The lumpia shanghai tasted like the lumpia I grew up eating from my Lola and Titas (high praise) and are absolutely be a crowd-pleaser. Crispy and tasty. Then for drinks we got the UBE horchata. Are. You. Kidding. Me. this is both amazingly delicious and VERY instagrammable. Add in the Philippine-imported cold brew and if I lived in Austin I would stop by EVERY morning. For main dishes we had the special of the week and adobo fried rice with chicken. I can't, for the life of me, remember the name of the dish that was the special, but it was a stew-ish dish with the MOST tender beef ever. Oh my goodness. Drool. So good. The adobo fried rice was dangerous because I scarfed it down in .5 seconds. Again, if I lived here, I would probably eat here all the time. Tender chunks of chicken perfectly flavored and marinated like proper adobo should be. Oh and it had a slaw with it that was a super delicious compliment to the rice! I had friends try all of the tacos and they loved them, so that's why I went for the other dishes. On top of this all, Elvin is one of the nicest humans and he has a GREAT team with him. They spent time talking to us and helping us figure out exactly what we were in the mood for. They have come up with a fresh twist on some classic Filipino foods, and I'm so so so happy this place exists. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to dip into the world of Filipino food, anyone familiar with and looking for some Filipino comfort food, and anyone who likes good food in general. read more

This is the flavor that I grew up with. Chef Elvin Lubrin's adobo fried rice is simple but amazing. For the first timer, definitely get the adobo fried rice with some ube horchata. I was lucky to go on a day when he had lechon kawali which is one of my favorite dishes. Tito Adobo will be on my regular rotation every time I come to Austin! read more

Awesome find in South Austin! I Yelped this place and I'm so glad I tried it out. They have a great Filipino-Mexican fusion of food.

Go try it out! read more

Tito Adobo - Filipino Near Me

Owner is really nice! This is gonna be a super short review because there's not much more to say. It's great!! Stopped by for a late lunch and got a free lumpia wee! I got the pork adobo fried rice and there's a lot of it!! I had enough for dinner too. Super flavorful and quality was really good. I can't wait to come back and try lots of other things like the tacos. Lots of great reviews on yelp and I am just bummed I didn't go here sooner! Everything they is true and I hope that more people get to try it out. This is one truck that I'd be so sad if it left my neighborhood read more

Great little Filipino food truck with an enthusiastic owner, Elvin. Each time I go there I ask for a daily special even if it isn't listed, ask for the spiciest of spicy, and slam that stuff hard. I've yet to be disappointed by man Elvin. Man, I hope I'm spelling your name right haha. The half and half horchata and cold brew, outside of the Filipino staples of course, is also really good. read more

I'm not the first, I won't be the last, and I am certainly not the most creative. But, I have to rave about how absolutely fantastic Tito Adobo is. The pork fried rice is legit. So. Damn. Good. When my boss had the chicharron he said "That's how they're supposed to taste!" I appreciate that they're willing to accommodate my picky office - Chicken taco in a bowl with no tortilla? No problem. No egg on 1 fried rice, but slide it onto another one? Sure thing! Even offered to help carry the food down to my people. Next time I'm definitely taking them up on it. Seriously good food. Go there. Have a great meal. Enjoy, Austin, enjoy. read more

All I can say is wow! I've been making my way through a lot of food trucks over the last few months. This is by far the best experience in both quality of food and customer experience. You would think that good customer service is a standard practice, but Tito Adoba is, by far, a superior experience. I wouldn't have written this review if the food was average. The food was incredible enough for me to actually write a review, which I very rarely do. Five stars. read more

Talk about amazing customer services. Answer all the questions I had about the menu, respecting and accommodating to my dietary needs. Good was tasty read more

Elvin and his crew are a delight but to mention the food was on a five star point!!! Everything was so good and mouth savory! I'm so glad he such a short distance from my home .. I can always get my Filipino fix !!!! Must try!!! I insist!!!! read more

THIS is exactly what a food truck experience should be. Over the last few weekends I've probably tried upwards of 15 food trucks and none have come even close to Tito Adobo. I ordered the Adobo fried rice with chicken and a Carolina reaper sauce, tacos, pineapple juice, and purple horchata. Literally everything was incredible! The customer service was out of this world and I wish more places had the friendliness and energy that I just experienced. I cannot wait to come back as soon as possible. read more

Awesome customer service. I was able to place an order through Eat24 and it arrived incomplete. I called and spoke to Elvin who explained that they weren't supposed to be listed on Eat24 anymore and because of that he never received my full order. Not only did he make one order on the spot when the delivery driver arrived unexpectedly, but he also put together the rest of my order and delivered it personally just to make it right. He even brought us a couple watermelon drinks, just to be nice on top of nice. He could have saved himself the hassle and just refunded me, but I appreciate that he didn't leave us hungry. Excellent service, tasty food. Would recommend. read more

Everything we ate was so good. Elvin is awesome. He was so friendly and great to talk to. We left it to him to pick some favorites and surprise us. We had some pork fried rice, lumpia shanghai, fried chicken skin, and his special barbacoa-style tacos. Washed it down with the horchata/ube cold brew. Thanks Tito E for taking care of us! read more

Disappointed... Between the 3 of us who went for lunch, the best review was at most "ok." Fried rice was bland and had no vegetables that I could tell.. it was literally rice, jackfruit (the vegetarian option), and egg.. also it was quite oily. Fried noodles were overcooked. read more

Lumpia is amazing!! I will be coming back for those jackfruit tacos.

On our way home from having dinner,my wife and I were looking around at all the local food truck lots and saw Tito Adobo. Skrrrrt,made a u turn to check him out,support out local pinoys/pinays,even tho we were full. We chatted wit Elvin for a min,had some drinks. Bomb ass drinks! We ordered chicken and pork adobo fried rice. I had a taste and had to stop myself from finishing. Remember, we Just ate at another spot! We will definitely keep coming and supporting this man! Wish he was up in Leander! read more

The filipino hospitality is real! It felt like I was at a real Filipino party. The food was delicious and tasted just like my mom's

Delicious!!! The staff is always friendly and quick service!! My go to once a week maybe twice ! read more

Tito Adobo - Filipino Near Me

Stopped by here after a rowing regatta by Town Lake and decided to try some Filipino food, American style. Me and my girlfriend decided to order the fried rice with egg, one with chicken and one with pork. We also had an ube horchata drink and a fruit style drink. The gentleman Elvin happily prepared our food and brought it out to us. Oddly, for some strange reason he referred to my girlfriend as a "he" twice, which is laughably absurd because she is the most girly-girl I know. Aside from that, everything was great. The food is definitely of good quality and the drinks were delicious. At $32 dollars total without tip though, it's definitely more of an occasional food truck stop than be a regularly go here. read more

Wow, this place is delicious and fantastic! The Guys were super cool and friendly, when they discovered it was my first time trying Tito Adobo they got super excited and gave me a sample of the ube horchata and pineapple drink. Both great but VERY sweet. The pork adobo fried rice was fantastic! I'll go to this place again and again - but please stay open later in the evening! (loved that y'all stayed open in the rain) read more

Great food and super friendly vibe!! We walked up randomly after seeing them by driving down south 1st and they greeted us by treating us to samples as we decided what to order. The food was delicious. read more

Friendly service from the folks at Tito Adobo. The pork adobo fried rice was moist and flavorful - served with a side of crunchy Asian slaw. The shangahi lumpia were meaty, crunchy, and served with a vinegar dipping sauce and a sweet-and-sour dipping sauce - both were yummy! I also got to try out a pork sisig taco, which I hope makes it onto the permanent menu! read more

PLEASE you MUST try. Sooooo good! Besides, Tito is such a great guy! Good food, awesome service, clean and deli!

You have to get the Ube horchata!! Adding cold brew to it is also super amazing! The owner is super friendly and it made my day meeting him! Don't miss this when you're in Austin!! read more
