    A bucket list restaurant I wanted to come check out since I found this place which searching for…read moreFilipino food with my husband one day. We opted to walk over from Petco Park as a pregame dinner. It's a nice walk from the park to where the restaurant is located and so nice to be able to order at the cashier then grab a seat inside or outside. Service was great, everyone is extremely friendly and gives excellent recommendations. We received our food pretty quick from ordering to it being on the table. Everything was extremely hot so be careful before you burn yourself with how fresh out of the kitchen everything came! The wings were large and flavorful, the lumpia heaven and the rice bowl delicious. My husband and I would be here all the time just to get their pandasal though. Fluffy, airy, perfection! Get a bag to go! You won't be disappointed!

It was dark so there were little lights for us to see the menu but it was good vibes. Luke was our server and he was ON IT! He did a really good job on checking in on us and getting our orders even though it was getting really busy The food was great. Our favorite was the sinigang WINGS and the fries. The cornbeef with garlic rice, longanisa with garlic rice, and the chicken tocino with garlic rice was really good but I was honestly disappointed with the Lumpiang Shang-hai. The place is called lumpia factory but the lumpia wasn't good at all. The texture was mushy on the inside and none of us really even ate it anymore after trying a couple of bites and ended up wasting it. The pork adobo was also wasted because it was honestly TOO SWEET for our liking. It wasn't a good flavor and tasted also like they used liver in the sauce which we personally didn't like. Everything else was good. We enjoyed the music and the vibe while we were in there tho. We would come back but not for the adobo and lumpia but for sure for the WINGS.

    Wow, husband and I are still trying to figure out how we missed this place when we came to the…read morebakery a couple of doors away! So I was craving a certain Filipino dish, diniguan. And most of the ones I have tried does not compare to moms cooking. Because of mom's health she no longer cooks.... Husband was so kind listening to my food cravings and doing research, he found this place. First, this place is located in strip mall mostly made of food stops. Secondly and importantly, the parking is no joke! Come early and watch where you park. The parking is not plenty and the area is narrow, making it a challenge to see when pulling in or out of a parking space. When you get out of your car your sensory will be on overload on the aromas that seem to hook you by the nostrils! You walk in the restaurant and you will see the tables most likely all taken. How it works is you walk up to food counter and select what items you want. They offer different platter options. It was a lot going on up the food menu on the wall above the staff. Behind the counter it is well staffed so even though the line may be long it moves pretty quickly. Husband and I decided to go with a two item platter. My platter I choose half and half (rice and noodles) . My two items were chicken adobo and diniguan. We got an order of lumpia too. I found the chicken adobo to be pretty good! The chicken portion was pretty good. With chicken adobo there seems never to be enough of the sauce to saturate the rice. The diniguan to my surprise passed the test! It was tasty and had the right balance of flavors! I saved half to share with mom and she liked just as well. A plus for us is they serve seltzer (soda water)! They do have a self serve water station off to the side. The lumpia was good, but I probably would try one of the skewers next time. I forgot to mention that we had to ask to share a space at a table with another couple as there were no more open tables. They gladly shared. There are not outdoor seating. I would definitely visit this spot again.

    We tried them on a whim and the portions are generous! We had the #1 rice combo with Pinakbet and…read moreGinisang Monggo--delicious and filling! We came around 11:30am, hoping for breakfast but missed it. There was a long line but it moves fairly quick. We also ordered one chicken inihaw that my husband enjoyed. Unfortunately, they ran out of the pork inihaw and had barely started grilling more. The wait time would have been much longer. The costs were around $22 including tax and a Diet Coke. There was plenty of seating but it's first come first serve.The parking lot was chaotic--no surprise there but we were able to snag a spot. Overall, this is a great turo-turo spot! I'd come back.

We came here to celebrate my birthday and right off the bat the ambience was amazing! The music, the vibe and our server was wonderful. Started off with the tuna kinilaw. Hubby said and I quote "this is literally the best thing I've ever had in my life!" Got the Taiwanese chicken and it just melt in your mouth like butter. The basil aioli accompanied with this appetizer was just perfection. How do they come up with this? Wagyu corned beef fried rice was also good but definitely not the star of the show! Crispy potatoes were definitely a favorite and that sweet Chinese sausage made it ten times better. Short rib kare kare was so tender. The flavor I wasn't really feeling, but it was still good! The star of the show was definitely the pork tomahawk tocino. So tender, so flavorful! Just when you thought they couldn't get any better. The sticky rice crème brûlée...omggg I want to have this everyday! Please if you were ever hesitant to eat at Animae, you need to now! Everyone needs to try this at least once in their life! I can't wait to go back.

We ordered a variety of different appetizers and entrees, and each one was literally perfection in all ways possible! Presentation, texture, and taste, all came together in every single dish to create a unique and lasting memory. The food simply cannot be over hyped, it really is that good. Dessert: After having some of the best food we have ever tasted, we definitely wanted to give their dessert a try as well. We shared the Sticky Rice Creme Brulee. Simply wow! Once again made to perfection. Service: The staff were very friendly and our server was knowledgeable and answered all our questions to help us pick what to order for the evening. She even brought us a complementary desert when she found out we were celebrating an occasion. Ambiance: The restaurant looked and felt upscale. There interior design was very well done. I particularly loved the multiple sources of low lighting that created a calm atmosphere. To Summarize: We had some of the best food of our lives, honestly. You can tell that so much care and planning was put into each and every dish they make. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and calm. Literally everything about our experience here was perfect!

I saw that Lia's was going to be parked outside a coffee shop I love so I was excited for lumpia and my caffeine fix in one go. The truck was supposed to open at 11 but when we arrived at noon, they were just opening up. Obviously not ideal that they were an hour late but that meant we were 4th in line. We ordered the pork sisig and adobo lumpia and were told that it would be 20-25 minutes. Totally get that they're hand-rolled to order and that it's only one person. But if we're the 4th order, then you should have a decent idea of how long it's going to take you to prep and serve to set expectations accordingly. Over an hour later we got our food which was great - crispy and well filled. The garlic sauce was nice and punchy. The adobo was a little bland and didn't make a lot of sense with the sweet chili sauce. I think a traditional vinegar, garlic, and pepper dip would have been more true to the OG flavor. I'd rather be told it'll be an hour and then have it ready sooner if that manages to happen, but over-promising on the wait time is just a bummer. I'm not sure if I'd try Lia's again.

    This is a spot located in Liberty Station and it's a great spot for home cooked Filipino meals…read more We got the chicken adobo and the longanisa for breakfast. Both items were actually pretty salty... I've had these before and I don't remember it being this salty and heavily vinegar based. Either way. The food was pretty good. I think we got there a bit too early as they still needed time to open up shop before they were ready to take orders. Nonetheless they were respectful and were transparent that they'd need time to open up and also to cook the dishes. Since this is in liberty station, it can get pretty loud in here. The seating is also all shared among the other restaurants so finding a table can be tough. It's also near the air strip so if you eat outside expect it to be loud from the planes flying by. Overall, pretty good for a "taste of home" Filipino dish, but my only gripes are the pricing (it's on the pricier side), the saltiness (shout out to the vinegar) and the timing (Filipino time that we all know and love lol).

    Very decent. A++ for the Lumpia. Tastes like a family recipie. Nice length and consistency,…read moreperfectly fried (though I like it a bit more crispy). Area of improvement may be the Sisig. The pork to rice ratio was nice, but there was a missing element. It needed a bit more fat or some binding agent. Wife and I split these two during the work week and it was a more than perfect amount for the both of us.

    R&B FILIPINO CUISINE @ MIRA MESA…read more Parking was super easy since there's parking available right out front, and there were plenty of spots when I came on a Friday evening after work. Just note that they close pretty early, around 5:30 PM on weekdays and 4 PM on weekends, so definitely plan ahead if you're trying to make it there later in the day. The restaurant is located in a busier area with other restaurants and businesses nearby, but once you walk in, it has a really chill and welcoming vibe. They have a bunch of Filipino snacks and items displayed on the side, and the whole place feels very authentic and homey. The setup reminded me a little of places like Chipotle or Panda Express where you move down the line and choose what you want on your plate. I got plain white rice as my base, but you can also get pancit, which are glass noodles with veggies, for a small extra charge depending on the plate size. For my sides, I got the crispy pork sisig and lumpia rolls, which are thin crispy Filipino egg rolls. For two sides and one base, it came out to around $16, and they loaded the plate with so much food that it easily became two meals. My boyfriend got the spicy squid along with a pork and liver dish, and everything was super flavorful. Overall, I'd highly recommend stopping by here if you want authentic Filipino food that feels homemade and comforting. My boyfriend is Filipino and even he said it tasted really good, which definitely says a lot. The portions are huge, the food is flavorful, and the whole place really gives that classic mom-and-pop shop feel.

No one in the kitchen expects you to take a bite of lumpia, or taste a bit of lechon with its shatteringly crisp skin, and have a moment of ecstatic pleasure, where you think to yourself (and say to whoever is nearby), "God-DAMN! That's the best thing I've ever eaten. They expect you to have that reaction at your Tita's house, in her backyard, at a birthday party for someone you're sort of related to. Turo-turo is for sating your appetite with large portions of rich, flavorful food, then going back to work. It's for grabbing a mixed bag of dinner plates and side dishes and desserts, then heading home to your family, where everyone is hungry, that kind of hungry where you talk with your mouth full while you eat, but no one minds, because they're doing the same thing. It's for leftovers - awesome leftovers - that taste as good as they did the first day, maybe better, planned-for leftovers that help keep the kitchen clean and the family full and happy. It's for comfort food, though I can't imagine anyone eating a piled-high meal of pancit and adobo and pinakbet, then pushing back from the table and saying, "You know, I feel really... comfortable." R&B serves all these things, and more, for all of these reasons. And maybe it's not excellent, but it's damned good, and it does the job it's meant to do.
