Terrible Customer Service. Terrible Food. Not worth your hard-earned $! We went here a few days ago and ordered the Ginataan Calabasa with Sitaw (we've ordered this in the past, and at other restaurants). This was such an awful experience. The sauce base was starchy like they mixed the coconut milk with water and cornstarch for thickness, and it tasted "PANIS" (Panis = old, left out food). They gave us 3 shrimps (it use to be 5-6 shrimps, some restaurants we've gone to gives more, with pork - Adobolicious has 3 shrimps and NO PORK) and they base was bland. We also ordered the Lechon Kawali. If you really want to try this place - tell them to make the LechKaw "CRISPY" and NOT CHEWY... It was pretty chewy. When we tasted the great Filipino Food at different restaurants before - and this is a rate of 3 out of 10. Lastly - as we were finishing our food, we heard the lady that was serving us answer the phone at about 7:25PM. She said, they are close and are no longer cooking. This place does not close till 8:00PM. They need to advertise that they close at 7:30PM if they cannot take a To Go order 35 minutes before closing. If this was a Pho place, they will service you to the very last minute. Terrible Customer Service. Terrible Food. read more

Adobolicious - Of the nice ladies. - Filipino Near Me - Fremont, California

It's nice to see Filipino restaurants in Fremont, as there doesn't seem to be many. Food is hit or miss depending on what you order. Sometimes the meat dishes (especially the ones that come with rice and eggs) are quite dry. Also, in one particular instance, we ordered the bicol express and while the sauce was good, the pork had a weird taste to it. Not that it went bad or anything, but just something unusual. The sisig, lechon kawali, and garlic fried rice were decent. Service can be pretty slow sometimes, so it's probably not your best choice if you were rushing and just wanted a quick bite. read more

We used Adobolicious catering for my son's birthday party. We got lots of compliments about their food. It's hard to find really good Filipino food around here that is tasty, and not too salty or dry. Even my mom loved it, cause she's infamous for re-cooking Filipino food from a restaurant we definitely will use them again! read more

On my quest to try something different in Fremont, I decided to do Filipino food and this was one place that I've been wondering about for quite some time now. The only Filipino food that I'd had before coming here were lumpia and that just wasn't going to cut it anymore, it was time to explore a little (baby steps). Adobolicious is located in an older shopping plaza in Fremont and can often be overlooked since it's in the corner and the signage isn't lit at night. The interior of the restaurant is pretty basic and a little on the smaller size but they do have a TV and they have just enough room to do a buffet on Sundays. The menu is quite extensive and there seems to be a variety of dishes to suite every palate. They have of course the Lumpia Shanghai, Adobo, Sinigang (soup), Pinoy style Spaghetti, Garlic Fried Rice, Sizzling Sisig and one of their very popular menu items the Super Sisig Burrito. The items look and sound really yummy. I've been here a couple of times and everything that I've tried has been really good. My go to dish seems to be the Tapsilog Rice Plate which is marinated beef with fried eggs and garlic fried rice. Not sure what type of sauce or seasoning they use for the Tapsilog but it is out of this world good, the meat is very tender and flavorful. They eggs are fried to perfection and the garlic fried rice is just the "icing on the cake", it's very garlicky and yummy. I definitely would get the garlic fried rice over the regular rice, I do however want to try the adobo fried rice to see if that tops the garlic fried rice. The Lumpia Shanghai here are so delectable, some of the best that I've had and that sauce that comes with it is very complimentary. It's a little sweet, sour and spicy and just pairs well with the lumpia. This is definitely some good comfort food and I will be back to check out some of the other items I had my eye on and maybe one Sunday I'll give the buffet a try that way I can get a taste of everything. The pricing here is very reasonable, you can order a la carte, rice plates or if you come 11am-3pm Tuesday-Saturday there are lunch specials available as well. FYI they have a Groupon currently if you want to give this place a try, I'm sure it's worth it with our without the Groupon. This is a nice addition to the Fremont area particularly on Thornton Ave. since really good restaurants are hard to come by in that area. read more

My husband loves lumpias and we have passed this place a few times. We did end up ordering to go, lumpias, lollipop chicken (just because the adobo chicken wasn't available) oxtails and the garlic rice. I suggest that if you do not want to wait, to order ahead, my order took about 30 minutes. You can tell this is a family business, everyone was pretty nice and the food was really good. Keep in mind I am not very familiar with filipino food so there was nothing I could compare this to. It looks like a hole in the wall and the parking wasn't too bad but they do offer Sunday brunch and I could see how the parking and space would be limited because the restaurant didn't seem too big. read more

I have never sat in to eat, so I'm not sure how the service is in that regards, but my take out experience have always been great. I always order the beef sinigang and a side of garlic rice. Portions are great. The sinigang is on the sour side, which is my favorite. Overall, great food. read more

I don't get how they have low ratings! This place is awesome! If you order a main dish, you get unli rice! On Sundays, all you can eat buffet for $13-14! That includes unli rice, soups, veggies, and chicken and pork selections. They are very accommodating and the owner reminds me of my tita. Very hospitable, like you're home! TFC CHANNEL for the win! Me and my husband comes here all the time. A great find I would say, and if you're craving for filipino food, this is it! read more

Buffet review: This is the only Filipino restaurant that serves quality buffet food as if they are having party and you are the invited guest, nothing but delicious food, for the price the selection is awesome!!! They always have about 8 dishes, adobo is always in the buffet, they always have soup too, always a good mixture of seafood, chicken, pork and beef dishes all for $11.99 - am not sure if they are making profit with this price and yes buffet comes with dessert too! Only at Adobolicious!!! This place is rather small so my friends and I try to make it on time, a little after they open. We always enjoy our Sunday buffet here,it always exceeds our expectations! The servers and owners are nice to us always!! read more

I went to a friends birthday party for their daughter. They had a huge display of food catered that day. I was blown away how good the food was, Sisig was my favorite that day of the spread. So I decided to stop in and grab some takeout. I got about $60 worth and came home and tried it all. Fried chicken, Beef Machado, sisig again, lumpia shanghai, & a few other dishes. I love the home cooking quality you get from this place. I'll continue to go back. read more

I ordered food delivery thru Uber eats and this restaurant missed one of the dishes. My order total was $69 - The restaurant would not pick up the phone for me to talk to someone about it and neither will Uber take responsibility for missing item. Therefore I would not be supporting either business! read more

YUM YUM YUM!! Went here on a Sunday afternoon. My Mom & I regret getting the lunch buffet with assortments of Filipino food like (pancit, adobo, lumpia, pinakbet, etc). However, we did order vegetable lumpia, sisig tacos & lechon kawali! Everything was super good, not too greasy & not overly salty (like some Filipino restaurants tend to be). I seriously felt like I was eating my Lola's lumpia & lechon! The sisig tacos were BOMB!! They had a mango salsa & I added Tapatio to make the taco a bit more spicy. The plate came with 2 tacos & an extra side of that mango salsa. The restaurant is small, fits maybe 60 people, but the workers are super nice & friendly, the place is clean & the wait time to get your food is short. The only bad thing would be, they forgot about our waters in the beginning & the rice with our meal lol.. Also, this part of Thornton esp the parking lot is super grimey... They would have been better off in a nicer looking shopping strip.. read more

I'm so happy to have stumbled upon Adobolicious. :) My boyfriend and I looked up food on yelp and saw a Mexican restaurant nearby we wanted to try out. The pictures looked appetizing but when we drove by, it didn't look clean and decided to go somewhere else. I checked yelp for something closeby and it said this was .02 miles away. It also had a deal $10 for $20 (which I forgot to use but I'll for sure be back to use this next time). We love Filipino food and were hungry so couldn't wait to try this new place. Another reason to come here, I saw a review saying they had a buffet on Sundays from 11am-3 or 4pm and I was sold. Not only was it Sunday it was 11:05am haha. Perfect timing. They said we can sit down anywhere and took our drink orders right away. I ordered a mango drink that tasted watery but the food made up for it. They had a lot of yummy quality food to choose from for the buffet and was just made. Steamed rice, pork sinigang which is my most favorite food in the entire world, pancit, fried fish, some kind of meat with quail eggs yum, pinakbet, something with coconut and shrimp, something with cyote?, tocino, and chicken adobo. I remembered most of this but cheated because I took a picture for Instagram. Anyway, clean restaurant, friendly service, yummy food, nice atmosphere everything that a restaurant should have. Oh and they do catering which is a plus! Hope you all enjoy! read more

Adobolicious - Sunday buffet with my love. Yummy! - Filipino Near Me - Fremont, California

Ordered to go! Pork Sinigang, Pancit, and Beef Machado! I came here initially for Kare Kare, but It was not available ); But that's okay because my second choice was the Machado. (; And I have to say that it was delicious! The Sinigang was awesome, and the Pancit was okay, it's only because I like my Pancit to be a little over cooked. But everything tasted fresh and not too salty. I will totally come back to this place. The Staff is very nice and welcoming. Tips: -This is not a fast food restaurant, so please be patient when waiting on your food. (I've read a few reviews that said service was slow.) - What's on the menu is not always available right when they first open. Try calling first. - don't judge the place by the look and setting. - don't order everything on the menu all at once. Trying everything all at the same time will confuse your taste buds. read more

Horrible service - the lady was so rude and gave me attitude, which made me feel so uncomfortable. Maybe she had a bad day, so I guess I will ignore that and order my food and go horrible food - I waited for nearly 25 minutes for my 2 item order, the food was cold and salty, that's all I can taste. I Will Never Ever Return to this place again. Never. read more

This used to be Bobby's Grill in Union City (it burnt down per the owner). Now that it is closer to my home, I will be frequenting this place more often. I love their Binagoongan and bbq on a skewer. I have yet to try other dishes on the menu, but thus far, their food is as good as I remember them as Bobby's Grill. Will be back mos definitely! read more

I had a grupon and failed to read that it was dine in only (sucks) so anyways I bought food.The lady on the phone wasent too good at recommendations and even though I asked her she was kind of out of it. So pick up was 25 minutes but when I got there at 35 mins. it still wasen't ready. The food was good and I loved the pork lumpia but if you go here remember they are very calm and slow so be prepared. Good food, good prices sloooow staff. Right off of Thorton when you get off 880. Parking available in a little old school shopping center. **Update I finally ate there and tried the chicken canton that is a thick ramen type noodle fried with chicken pieces, thick shredded carrot and cabbage that was very good. Next the bbq chicken skewers and my fav was the veggie lumpias. These are bigger than the pork ones and are so good. All the food with exception of the lumpias was on the salty side so I recommend not to add any aditional soy sauce. Faster service today. Used my Grupon that expires in a couple of days. read more

I really really wanted to love this place, but they could have done so much better in so many different aspects... Recently had a fusion Filipino Burrito at the "Island Reggae Festival" (I forget the name of the food truck that was there, but if you're reading this review and know what I'm talking about PLEASE DM me their name!) but my daughter and I have been craving them since! So I yelped, "Filipino Burrito" and Adobolicious popped up... They weren't that far from me so I thought I'd give them a try... Called in an order for pick up... 2 sisig burittos... I had to confirm if they included egg, and if they actually use pig face (as my daughter doesn't like that). The person whom I was speaking with didn't know and had to confirm with someone "On Hold" (but I could hear her asking in tagalog lol) I guess I'll start my, WHERE IS THE LOVE? rant... Came in, no one greeted me... Waited at the counter for a good 5 minutes until someone could help me... The lady didn't know how to operate the cash register so I had to wait a number of minutes for them to fix it, and didn't get an apology for my time... She tried to keep the receipt at the end (pretty sure I'd get a free meal at some places for that) Got home to look at 2 significantly different sized burritos.. WTH, we ordered 2 of the same thing, how is this possible? The burritos were simply OK.... Needed a whole lot more love! Garlic rice, had a hint of garlic only... Sisig was very wet and unevenly distributed (very important with a good burrito roll). **I've had better and this experience was not good enough for me to return... Senor Sisig is still one the best fusion buritto I've had! PS... I started writing this review after eating the first half, and by the time I got to this point, my daughter's belly started hurting... Something also mentioned by another reviewer... read more

So blessed to have this close by whenever I'm craving Filipino food like my family used to make. Got me missing all those family parties pre-pandemic! The pancit, sisig, and pork adobo are so so good, and don't get me started on their sinigang! read more

We ordered to go and their food is really good. I love their Kare Kare, bangus sisig, and their friend chicken. Love it. Can't go wrong here. They are on a cash only basis. No credit cards. Not sure why but worth every penny. read more

My go to for lumpia and adobo. Friendly staff. Cozy for dine in. A lot of take out as well.

Quite unfortunate!!! I tried this place once long time ago, but recently a co-worker bragged about their adobong pusit. So this weekend, I stopped by and ordered it When I got home, it stunk my entire kitchen with a fishy and pungent smell. It was such a horrible smell. So I called back to ask what they used as vinegar. Long story short, they gladly offered my money back once I return the item. So I did and I made them smell the dish and she agreed on the horrible smell, nothing like any other adobong pusit I've ever had in my life. I gave then 1 star for refunding my money. Never again going back !!! read more

I went to Adobolicious last week with my family. We were satisfied with the buffet food selections, as well as the friendly service they provided. Not situated in the best location, but They offer yummy food at a descent price. I just wish they had Kare kare, menudo , and pancit. Something we didn't see for our first time visit & something i was expecting from a Filipino restaurant. We also tried ordering the ube shake but they ran out of ube. We did not bother looking at the menu, but maybe we should order ala carte next time. They have catering menu as well. You just have to ask. read more

It was our first time here. We came before the lunch rush. We super excited because it was recommended by a friend. We ordered an adobo burrito, calamari, pancit, sinigang, kare-kare. For dessert we had the ube shake and cantaloupe shake. The wait time was over an hour, but that was because our order was large. We didn't mind the wait because the food was delicious. We will definitely come back here again to try the other things on the menu. read more

Service is horrible, cranky old lady takes your order. Wait time is from 45 mins to an hr. Food is salty and oily. You are better off ordering ahead and taking it to go if you are craving Filipino cuisine. read more

Came here for some pancit and beef caldereta and it was just ok. The pancit tasted funny, i'm not sure how to explain it. like the noodles were still kinda raw it had a starchy flavor that was not delicious. For the price of the beef caldereta $12.95 you didn't get very much. I took the order to go and was just MEH. Service was fast though. i ordered and was promised it would be ready in 15 min and it was. I appreciate that. When i walked in, it was no frills, and they had a smattering of customers dining in. Looks like they have a buffet bar too. I'm not sure i'd be back as there are better Filipino joints. I really wish i loved the food because this is the closest to me. OH well. I'll make thhe drive for better flavor and quality until i can find something else. Happy Yelping! read more

We ordered our usual but something is different. As frequent customers, we know what our pallet desires but today's meal doesn't have Kuya's recipe. Something is off. Upon exit, we noticed another man in the kitchen. Aha, I knew it! The food was cooked by someone other than kuya. It wasn't as good and would prefer to have kuya cook my meal. This is why we continue to come read more

Adobolicious is definitely delicious! Probably the best halo halo ice cream I have ever tasted in my life...this place is a go-to place for Filipino food in Fremont. I am definitely coming back to try the actual food other than desserts (came here just to try the halo halo); I heard from the owner that they have a buffet on Sundays, 11-3 pm, so perhaps after church I'd go back. Just looking at the menu, the foods are definitely worth trying! The five-stars is for the halo halo and the nice service that we received! The two ladies that work there by the counter are awesome! Talk about Filipino hospitality and kindness...proud to be Pinoy here... read more

How they made the Halo-halo. The lady used her bare hands on the crushed ice. The wait time is more than 15 minutes even though they will say 15 minutes. I waited 30+ on my order. They don't accept card and only use cash, Venmo and Zelle. read more

We usually use Groupons to eat here, but I'd go here without a Groupon too! It's a very homey ambiance here. I usually order sinigang na bangus and it is sooo good! It's served in a metal pot and it has the most perfect sour taste. The waitress is very attentive and kind to us every time we eat here. I haven't had the chance to try their buffet yet but I'd love to go when I have a chance! read more

Very accommodating staff and food was delicious and plentiful. Will definitely order from this restaurant again.

Good filipino food. The crunchy turon is a must. I loved their menudo n mechado. The ube reminds me of the delicious kakanin during christmas season. A good place to order your party trays. read more

WE like this place. Its small and family owned. No waits. My favorite is the Bangsilog (Fried Fish). Good sized food portions. If your getting appetizers ( lupia) and dessert ( halo halo), I would split a burrito (Sisig). Its laid back atmosphere makes this place great to come sit relax and really enjoy your food and company. They have a buffet which we have yet to try but it looks really good. read more

Adobolicious - Bangsilog - Filipino Near Me - Fremont, California

I have been eating food from Bobby (owner) for over 10 years now. It is delicious! It is the food you would eat at home. The palabok is the best I have had and now it's on the catering menu. I really wish he would put it back on the regular menu. And when it's cold outside and you want some soup, the bulalo is the way to go. I wish I lived closer so I could go to Adobolicious more often. I've turned many of my Filipino and non-Filipino friends to Adobolicious for good home cooked food. When I got married July 2019, I already knew Bobby was going to cater my wedding. I got my lechon and a whole slew of dishes from Bobby including the palabok! My wedding was on a tight schedule and Bobby was able to deliver in a short time window for setup. I was also able to use the chafing dishes and serving utensils. He also has the burners available as well as a hot lamp for the lechon. read more
