    3.5/5 overall. Pros: I really appreciate the White Rice stall at Liberty Public Market, and all their locations are consistent with their options. It's conveniently located in front of tables to enjoy your food, and the stall decorations highlight and introduce Filipino food and culture. Cons: inconsistency. Online, the location says they're open at 10AM on weekends, but i've noticed on 3 different weekends they've opened at 11am instead. A lot of people order online for pickup, and we waited over 40 minutes for an in-person order of two bowls, due of the influx of online orders. The bowl we received had more of a burnt egg than fried, as pictured.

    Love seeing Filipino food vendors! We were waiting for them to open up so once they did I stood there at the register. There was a guy and a girl working and neither of them even looked at me. They were definitely open already based on the time but didn't even bother to say anything at all. I waited an awkward amount of time and finally asked "are you open?" And he responded yes as if I was the one bothering them. So strange and really off-putting, kinda didn't even want to buy anything from them at that point but I knew my kids would really like the pandesal. I was hoping for sisig but didn't see any on the menu so just ended up getting the pandesal and lumpia shanghai for the kids. It kinda took a crazy amount of time just for those 2 things considering I was the first customer. I didn't even hear them call out my number or name and just happened to see it sitting on the counter. But they both came out fresh at least. The bread was really fluffy with a toasted exterior and I liked the whipped ube butter with it. The lumpia was nice and crispy but nothing super unique about the flavor or presentation. I'd round up to 3.5 for the pandesal but otherwise probably wouldn't go out of my way to return based on my first experience.

    Glad to find Filipino food within Liberty Station. Pros: -casual environment. You order at the cash register, pick up your order, and you can either dine inside or outdoors. -their lechon was nice and crispy -good size portions! Cons: -n/a

    Visited the Liberty Public Market location and the service was friendly and fairly quick. We ordered the Lumpia Gulay and they didn't have enough, so they were kind enough to give us some Lumpia Shanghai free of charge. The Uber Pandesal was nice and I really liked the Ube butter spread on top. For my main I got the Lechon Kawaii which is pork belly over a bed of rice. The dipping sauce it came with added some flavor but I enjoyed the dish more without it. With the exception of one piece, most of the pork belly pieces were nicely crispy and moist. They were really nicely seasoned and very filling. The garlic rice was also a nice flavor boost to the overall dish.

    FUXS GIVEN = 4.0 ******************* Food = 4 I can't say it's the best Filipino food I've ever had but it's still fucking delicious. I went with the pork adobo and Shanghai lumpia UX = 3 Order at the counter style in a bigger food market. The whole market was dead but White Rice had good vibes. Service = 5 Server and chef were top notch. Great quick service.

    Moving to SD I was recommended a few spots, this was a common talk of the town. AMBIANCE: Parking: Liberty Station! There's parking and there's not parking. It really depends on the day, time, and if there are events but for the most part there's good street, meter, and plaza parking. Seating: It's very community space so find a standing table or eat outside and enjoy! Vibes: Liberty Station is a signature place to visit if you're in San Diego from the food, activities, or community! Whether you're in the mood to socialize, study, or dine, this is your spot. It's in a marketplace so you'll see a lot choices. The restaurant is relatively simple with your counters and screen-menu. There's some decor paying homage to Filipino culture, which feels welcoming and comforting as a Filipino. Great place for a grab and go FOOD: Sweet Pork Sausage Silog (Recommend) Delicious! Their longanisa (sweet pork sausage) was enjoyable - soft, lightly charred, mildly spiced and sweet. This is usually embraced for breakfast but appreciated all day long. The green onions gave it a good kick and the pickled veggies (atchara). The rice was well cooked - not too soft and hard with a good amount of garlic. The egg gave it a nice savory umami touch. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! I had a gift card and they had some issues but they resolved it. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Excellent! Simple choices, good prices, and a pleasant experience! As a Filipino it's timely to make these dishes so it's great they're able to make these bowls presentable and great comforting flavor. Thank you, Chef Phillip Esteban and team. I wish you all the best! #FilipinoFoodMovement TIPS: * Silog means garlic rice and egg!

    First time seeing this place at the Liberty Market at Liberty Station. Perused the menu and wanted to purchase the Ube Pandesal. However they were sold out already!!! Oh well next time. I ended up just getting the Calamansi beverage!! YUMMMMMMMM I so enjoyed it!!! I will be back again in hopes to get a taste of ube pandesal.

    I'm in town on vacation and was craving some god old fashion filipino food. The longganisa was cooked perfectly--I love a good sear on them! The garlic fried rice was also cooked super well with a great garlic and pepper balance. I've never made or had the longganisa topped with fried garlic and it was a game changer. The lumpia Shanghai we're also freshly fried and crispy. Perfect flavor, always balanced with the mae ploy. The service was fast and only took about ten minutes or so to cook. There was no line so it was quickly done, and they take Apple Pay which was so convenient after I forgot my wallet at home!

    I miss this place. I've had this dish 4-5 times and only one of the times it was overcooked. The other times it was perfect. Crispy outer skin and juicy and tender in the inside . Ube pandesal here is also AMAZING with the Ube butter. Should've taken a pic of that too. I'll go back here fasho.

    If you want Filipino Modern/Fusion, the flavors here are pretty good. I thought prices were high for Filipino food considering San Diego has a large Filipino population/businesses. The raw onion was a bit overwhelming for me in the Sisig (and I normally love raw onions), but I liked the garlicky flavors and the perfectly cooked egg. Service was great though!

    Got lunch here in Liberty Island, San Diego. We got Spaghetti and Tocino with rice. Foods are tasty and freshly prepared. Service was decent. The place is very clean and trendy. Love the displays and atmosphere of the store. Lots of parking spaces outside.

    Pork Adobo
    Isaac H.

    10/10 would recommend!! It was my first time to this part of Liberty Station and as soon as I saw this Filipino restaurant, I knew this was the one!! Great selection to pick from, I went with the pork adobo bowl. Good portion sizing, not too much and not too little. The pork was cooked perfectly and was super easy to bite into. Never doubt the flavor here ever!

    UBE PANDESAL
    Quoc H.

    This location is located inside a food court area with many other stalls. Parking can be very hard. The stall wasn't that busy and food was made in about 15min. 6/10 Lechon Kawaii $15 - very basic dish that came with 3 pieces of roasted pork and a fried egg over a bunch of rice and a bit of veggies. Pork was pretty plain and you only get 3 small pieces. Pictures all show around 5 but definitely not the case. Egg was fine and sauce that comes with it pairs really well with the rice. For $15 this is insanely overpriced so I do not reccomend. 5/10 Ube Pandesal $9/3pc - The bread itself is just Hawaiian bread with very little flavor. The ube is nonexistent so it seems like just food coloring. At it was soft and airy pillow bread. They also did not mention that they ran out of the ube cream that comes with the bread so this was absolutely trash without the cream. I had to go another one of their other locations to get the cream for the bread. I do not recommend getting the bread unless they have the ube cream in stock. 10/10 Ube Cream - consistency between whip cream and butter. It was sweet but with the bread is just perfect. Melts really well when the bread is hot. Ube flavor is strong.

    There are meals you eat, and then there are meals that bring people together. Tita's Kitchenette…read moredid exactly that. I have a loved one in a nursing facility in North San Diego and the staff there provide the kind of compassionate care that comes with dignity. After experiencing another facility that was so heartbreaking it left me questioning everything. I wanted to do something meaningful to thank this incredible team. A card didn't seem like enough. Flowers fade. But good food? Good food creates memories. I ordered the sisig, pancit, and their famous signature lumpia rolls, along with pandesal from Valerio's. Ordering was a breeze. I placed my order at 9:30 a.m. and picked everything up at 4:00 p.m. Three small trays turned out to be an incredible amount of food. I planned for 10 people, but it fed a whole lot more as many from different units gathered to share. The moment that sealed it for me happened before a single tray was opened. A nurse I had never met walked over and said, "Oh, you went to Tita's. I recognized their lumpia." That gave me chills because I knew I had chosen the right place. The food tasted like it came straight from Mamasan's kitchen, authentic, comforting, and made with love. Staff members kept stopping by to thank us, and my only conidition, "Make a plate for the receptionist. He's awesome too." That is what great food does. It creates connection. If you're feeding family, friends, coworkers, or an entire care team, Tita's Kitchenette delivers more than delicious Filipino food. They help you show appreciation in a way people will remember. "One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well." ----Virginia Woolf

    Omg!!!! San Diego County has got to have the best Filipino food in So California…read more We were visiting the area and family members suggested we drive over from our hotel and order from Tita's. We were in the Point Loma area close to SD airport and Tita's was about 10 mins away. Getting there was a maze freeway wise and when we got there, while the line was out the door, moved quickly. We ordered several combos and from what I can recall beefsteak, pancit, adobo, lumpia, sinigang and menudo/caldereta were all deeelicious and just like what you'd expect at a filipino party- but better. Staff here were all friendly and helpful. Love Tita's and look forward to returning!

    Such a special evening at ANIMAE…read more Led by Executive Chef and James Beard Award Finalist Tara Monsod, ANIMAE brings a personal, deeply cultural perspective to San Diego's fine-dining scene. One of the things I appreciate most about Chef Tara Monsod is how she stays true to the Filipino dishes and flavors so many of us grew up with, while still finding a way to elevate them beautifully. The Tuna Kinilaw, Crispy Pig Ear, Short Rib Kare Kare, and Pork Tomahawk Tocino were all standouts. Each dish still felt unmistakably Filipino, but Tara brought her own creativity through technique, texture, presentation, and refinement. The Short Rib Kare Kare felt familiar and comforting, but completely elevated. And the Pork Tomahawk Tocino was such a fun interpretation of a flavor so many Filipinos recognize instantly. Then came dessert. We tried the Sticky Rice Crème Brûlée, Chocolate Crémeux, Buko Pandan, and Matcha Mousse. I especially loved seeing Buko Pandan, another familiar Filipino favorite, presented in such a polished and creative way. And we absolutely LOVED our waitress, Joy! Her enthusiasm for the menu was contagious. She was genuinely passionate about recommending the different dishes and explaining them to us, which made the experience even more fun. And I have to give her extra credit because her Filipino pronunciations were on point! We noticed, Joy! That is what I love about Tara's food. She respects where these dishes come from and keeps the heart and soul of the flavors intact, while still making them feel fresh, sophisticated, and completely her own. And what made the evening even more special was Tara taking the time to come visit with us after coming over from her other restaurant, Le Coq. She was gracious enough to stop by our table and spend some time visiting with us. Such a thoughtful gesture and such a wonderful way to end an already memorable evening. Amazing food, incredible service, beautiful surroundings, wonderful company, and a chef helping Filipino cuisine shine in such a beautiful way. Definitely a night to remember.

    The restaurant and ambiance of Animae is gorgeous though I'd give the food a 3.5 rating…read more Nothing wowed me other than the tuna kinilaw which was buttery, supple, and melted in my mouth. The Wagyu fried rice was flavorful as were the drinks but that's where it stopped. The steamed buns were basic and I would not recommend them. We shared one and left the others behind. The filet was flavorful thanks to the banchan and raw egg saw they provided but it was medium well to well on some pieces and should've been cooked perfectly for $68 al a carte. The Taiwanese chicken was spicy and probably should've skipped it for something raw or more refreshing. The service was great and the servers were all super attentive. We arrived early and saw 20 other people in different parties arrive after us and get seated before us for the same time slot. We finally got seated 10 minutes after our reservation time against a wall of two top tables. Odd choice of seating since the person opposite the booth has their back to the entire restaurant. I don't think I'll return but appreciate what they're attempting to do. Some items were superb and others should be left off the menu completely. Definitely order the tuna.

    Surprised there was no long line outside since today was the Sunday brunch and read from other…read morereviewers to come prepared to wait. Upon walking up to the door, we noticed the closed sign but there was some tables filled already. Asked the young man if they were open or had a private party, he didn't even realize the closed sign was still on. He asked if we had reservations, we did not then he told us to wait outside to be called on, there were tons of empty clean tables, but we didn't argue. As soon as we stepped outside, before I could sit down we got called right back in by the other lady to come inside. Okay. Weird quick game of musical chairs lol. She explained to us how it goes. Drinks on this side of the room. Food on that side. Check. First plate: garlic fried rice (Sinangag), fried eggs, longoniza, Filipino spaghetti, lechon, and a bowl of arroz caldo. Also grabbed two cups, one for water the other for what the waitress said was mango ice tea (spoiler alert: no mangoes were hurt in the process of making this ice tea). Second plate: watermelon and pineapple slices, menudo, kare kare, ube pancake. First the sinangag tasted like it's been left out too long even though it was just brought out. Lots of hard pieces of rice. I decided to not finish it. Next, the fried eggs and longaniza. Fried eggs felt too rubbery for maybe just me. And the longaniza didn't taste anything like longaniza. No spices no garlic. Just a basic sweet hot dog. Maybe I'm wrong and it's just a hot dog. I can say the Filipino spaghetti did taste somewhat like actual Filipino spaghetti, sweet. But not too sweet but also didn't see any hot dogs in there! Now the lechon. Tasted exactly like fried pork. That has zero spices and kinda been out for a while. The arroz caldo had some shreds of chicken I think but I had to fetch for it in the pot. Unfortunately there's no boiled eggs to add but you can add everything else to it like the fried garlic, spring onions lemon etc. Now the drinks. What's up with the non mango mango iced tea? It just tasted like iced tea and if I was told that id be okay. But I love mango drinks and was looking forward to it. The water is the only thing I could say I wasn't disappointed with and only if I didn't have to get it myself I guess would be the only downside lol. I did try to get a second plate. Consisted of some watermelon slices and pineapple slices, menudo and kare kare with white rice. The kare kare and menudo did look like what they were called and that is about it in comparison to what I've had in the past. The menudo had no tomato paste taste to it and was rather bland and the kare kare was also bland. Their kare kare sauce was very watery, missing the thick savory peanut buttery taste. And unfortunately, it was the watermelon slices that made me quit and lose my appetite. It had a weird rotten taste to it. I almost had to vomit. First I thought it was soaked in something maybe vinegar, or I dunno. But I just could not eat anything else. I hope today was just an off day and the food is better. Unfortunately, I doubt I'll ever come back or even recommend my friend or family to come eat here.

Initially, they could not find my reservation, but they found it and accommodated us with a table right away and even threw in a Halo Halo for my birthday. The hostess was really nice and jovial. With the amount of people in there it got really warm and unfortunately with the door swinging open over and over there were flies, but there isn't much they could do to prevent that.

    I was very excited to try their Filipino food! Unfortunately, I did not truly enjoy it…read more It's a small shop where you order and pick up your food at the window. There is about a handful of tables and chairs right outside if you're lucky. I ordered the Chicken Adobo bowl which comes with garlic rice and 2 pcs of Ube Pandesal + Ube butter. I was so hopeful but to be honest, the best thing of the whole meal was just the Ube butter! The chicken adobo bowl disappointed me. It didn't help that while I was waiting for my order, I did overhear an employee tell another that he "tried really hard to save the rice and it was difficult, but was able to fix what they had." I was wishing that it wasn't MY order that he was talking about. After waiting for at least 15 minutes, I got my food. As soon as I took the bite I knew what the employee was talking about. The rice was hard. The cook didn't make it correctly and it was easy to tell, plus I overheard that confirmation earlier during that conversation between the employees. It ruined the dish for me and didn't pair well with the chicken and egg. The chicken "adobo" was okay, but I didn't love it. Usually Filipinos pair the rice and protein in a single bite but I couldn't do it this time. The adobo couldn't even mask how bad the rice texture was Ube pandesal was okay. Lacked flavor but glad it did match authentic pandesal texture. The ube butter saved it by leveling up the flavor. It was sooo good I want to put it on everything. Service was okay, nothing special or super friendly. Wish they would've communicated the overcooked rice thing... I would've been willing to wait for a fresh batch if they told me. I didn't go back because all the tables were full and/or too hot from the sun around 2pm and took it to-go. Not sure how you can mess up rice at a Filipino restaurant and be okay serving it for money. None of the employees that day looked Asian or Filipino, which I also thought was odd for cooking and language purposes. I don't see myself coming back here

    Nanay's Best BBQ - Sausage - like a sweet Asian sausage but soft. No snap to the bite. Good.

    Came across this spot and had it bookmarked for the longest while. Here was my experience…read more AMBIANCE Parking: Plaza parking, no problems here really so you should be good. Seating: Limited seating you're moreover better sitting outside using the plaza tables/chairs. Vibes: The spot itself is nothing too flashy, your typical Mira Mesa plaza with plenty of good eateries. The restaurant itself is your casual Filipino turo-turo/point point feel. It's decorated with Filipino decor and food, every space used up. Great place for a quick food adventure or family order. FOOD Sisig (Recommend) Masarap! This sisig hit differently, rather than fried and crispy I felt they used different parts of the pork. Then mixed with onions, seasoning and citrus flavors. I enjoyed the textures and the comfort to it. Fried Chicken (Recommend) Another comforting dish - crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and seasoned well rounded. Nothing overly complicated or trying to reinvent fried chicken--just straightforward familiarity. CUSTOMER SERVICE Awesome! Friendly people and quick services. TL;DR OVERALL 4.5 Stars. Good portions, reasonable prices, and comforting Filipino food without all the extras. Nanay's Best BBQ feels appropriately named. There's something familiar about walking up to a counter filled with Filipino dishes, choosing your ulam, loading up some rice/garlic rice/noodles, and sitting down to a hearty meal. For some familiary Filipino flavors, definitely check out Nanay's Best BBQ. #RepresentAZN #FilipinoFoodMovement TIPS * Come hungry--the combo makes for a hearty lunch.

    The Combo we ordered cost $14.25 each. This place gets our thumbs up and it fits our $59 date…read morebudget. And the Pork Sisig is a must try. First time I've tried a Sisig that has Pork BBQ in it. Great improvisation in using their specialty Pork BBQ with the traditional Filipino Sisig. Place is small but there are plenty of table outside. Their chicken bbq is also very tasty and very Filipino, you know, sweet bbq. Check this place out!
