Hands down the BEST cheesesteaks in the valley! And don't get me started on the fries! (As a fry enthusiast they are my all time fav) I usually call ahead and pick up to go and they are super quick and great! I've dined in a handful of times as well but seating can be a hit or miss since they're fairly popular. 100/10 read more

The good: Great service. Great cheesesteak sandwich and fries. Fantastic Lechon kawali. The not so good: chicken teriyaki was super salty. All in all a solid place for quick good eats. Just go easy on the salt. read more

What a unique restaurant! You can order American food like cheesesteaks, burgers...then order some Filipino food. Perfect for a couple like my husband & I, where he always prefers American food but I always want rice. Lots of parking. Not the prettiest inside, but everything was clean & the staff were very friendly. Although the boy at the register kept getting our order wrong. My hubby asked for the large 16" Philly, and even clarified twice, but was charged & given the small 8" one instead. He was also bummed that his Philly didn't come with fries, we thought it came with it since it wasn't clarified on the menu nor did the boy taking our order asked if we wanted fries with it. Nevertheless, my husband loved his Philly cheesesteak. Also, none of us asked for lumpia, but it was added to our order. It was a nice mistake tho because the pork lumpia was crispy & delicious. I also ordered both the lechon kawali & the tapsilog. The tapas in the tapsilog was delicious & had the perfect flavor. The lechon kawali could have been a little crisper, but my husband enjoyed that as well. We would definitely come back next time we're in town & craving Filipino & cheesesteaks. read more

My boss wanted to take a colleague and I out for lunch, as a thank you for our hard work. He had mentioned this place and I hadn't been before, so I was excited. We didn't end up getting cheesesteaks, which he said were excellent. Instead the three of us ended up getting different Asian/filipino dishes. My boss got a lumpia plate. My colleague got teriyaki beef. I opted for the lechon. Each plate had rice and some tomato and cucumber slices. My lechon was crispy almost to the point of being dried out, but still flavorful. I did use a little bit of hot sauce to cut the fattiness (vinegar in the sauce.) My colleagues ate up their plates, with no complaints. I didn't realize it was more of a takeout place. We got a table, near the back door, next to a freezer. Had I known, I might have suggested just doing take out. Now, I want to go back and try the cheesesteak sandwich. read more

My family always orders from here when they staying in Indio (second home) so I was excited to try it. Unfortunately the rice was old, the tapa tasted like sebo and the bangus was just ok. The suka wasn't spiced just cloudy. I will try it again one day but very disappointed. read more

I ordered the lechon plate, and it was disappointing. When lechon sits around, the crispness of the skin disappears, giving a flat bite.... If they had dropped it into a fryer, the skin could have crisped up..,, Oh, well.,, 2 stars read more

Service was good. They were kind and polite. We ordered to go but ate some there to try it fresh. I ordered fish and chips and my uncle ordered the Korean bbq plate. Both were very delicious. The fish and chips were crispy on the outside with the flakiness and tenderness inside. The tar tar sauce was very delicious. Not overpowering just right with flavor. The Korean bbq was very tasty. I love the sauce paired with the fluffy white rice. It was exceptional. read more

To begin with the lady at the front counter was extremely disrespectful and belittling us for asking if they had an item on the menu, she gave attitude the whole time no wonder place is dead I ended up voiding the order because I was so upset the way I was talked to. Don't waste your time here go to the PD location they are way more welcoming and the customer service is better I think they also have more menu items because I asked for something that is at the pd location and they apparently don't have it here, oh and also if I ask for a order of fries don't ask me if I want regular fries because my bf asked do you have seasoned fried and in the rudest way possible she answered that's all we have no wonder place was dead don't waste your time here. read more

Quick and friendly service, easy to find location, and great food but way overpriced.

It doesn't seem much when you walk by. Seems like a small mom and pop shop. But the food is a fusion of American, Mexican and Filipino rolled into one. I had the tapsilog (chopped flap steak with eggs over garlic fried rice). It was great. Only thing missing is the usual Filipino dipping sauce for the steak. Husband had the Philly cheesesteak, which was also amazing. It gets pretty crowded during lunch and there are not a lot of tables. The owner and staff are very friendly. read more

Closest asian/filipino food you will get in the Indio area! Whenever my family and I are in the area we always like to come to this place for their filipino food. They have Tapsilog (marinated beef, rice, and eggs), Longsilog (sweet pork sausage, rice, and eggs), Pork Sisig (pig snout, ear, and liver, rice, and eggs), Lechon Kawali (deep fried pork belly), Bangsilog (fried milkfish, rice, and eggs), and even Halo Halo (ice cream dessert). This place amazes me because they even have Philly Cheesesteaks & other sandwiches, salads and even some Mexican dishes. Pretty good filipino food and my fiance and his family seemed to enjoy it as well :P Maybe we will try something else on their menu! read more

The bacon cheesesteak is my favorite. Always consistent. Fries are well seasoned. Staff are always friendly and patient when I go with a large group during lunch. Plenty of parking. Huge menu including traditional Filipino options that I plan to try in the future. read more

The restaurant was in an unassuming strip mall across from the Riverside County Fair grounds. The service was great and friendly. The food was really good, especially the milk fish, long silog, and unexpectedly the fries. It is great to find and support a Pinoy run place in the Coachella Valley. read more

So far so good:) food is amazeballs, service is on it, and view is great:) super love the delicious Filipino food(:

Great value for your money. We tried a philly cheese steak & the Korean plate. We thought everything was pretty good, a little greasy but we liked it. It's al little place located in a strip mall. The place is small & the service was fast. We really liked the sweet potato fries, they're great! The other dishes I thought were just ok, I'd try something different if I were to ever come back. All in all I would rate this about 3.5 star. Not necessarily my favorite but they do have many other things to try. To me this place is kin to just eating fast food. Try it out if you're looking for something different from a fast food perspective. Happy eating read more

This was a random find on a Sunday afternoon as a pit stop on a road trip. They had a good mix of American and Filipino fusion. The pan fried longanisa is sweet but not too sweet and went great with the rice. My sister got the sisig and it was good, just missing some hot sauce/vinegar. The fried eggs were great with the yolk still runny. They were quick to make the food, even with the orders being called in. Also, the Lakers game was being shown so good entertainment! read more

Never tried the Filipino food here but you can get a decent sandwich here. I don't eat beef but my husband likes the Philly cheesesteak sandwich which is $8.79 for a small. I get the chicken Philly which is $8.49 for a small. The chicken Philly at Denny's is honestly better though. I don't eat here frequently but if you're nearby, it's worth it to stop by. read more

I was craving some Filipino food and this place is a local favorite. Known for its Lumpia and Philly Cheesesteaks I had to try it out. I had an order of Lumpia to go and I was not disappointed! Orders come in 8 pieces with tangy sweet & sour sauce. They were tasty and filling definitely satisfied the craving. Everyone was friendly and service was fast. The place is an Asian American comfort food stop they have a little of everything. It's a bit divey but let's face it you're not coming here for the ambiance. I'm coming back for those cheesesteaks because they looked and smelled great. read more

Best lechon kawali and longanisa in the desert! Excellent customer service! Worth driving out to Indio for!

We were on the trip to the desert and I had a craving for Filipino food. When we found the restaurant, I was not sure what to expect. They have a large variety of sandwiches and cheesesteaks. However, there is a nice section of Filipino things that most Pinoy will recognize. Pros: - super fast - friendly service - Filipino food is surprisingly good. Looks unassuming but the taste is definitely there Cons/pointers- - The entrance faced away from the streetsso I did not see it when we turned into the parking lot - nothing really bad to say - it's not fancy, but it is spot on Tips: - I had lechon kawali. It was crisp and tasty - my wife had Korean bbq. It's bistek (if you know Filipino food) read more

This place has been a family favorite for years!! I usually stick with what I like so I always get their teriyaki chicken with a side of fries. It's one of my favorite things ever and the portion size is HUGE. I get two meals out of it. I've never had their cheesesteaks before but all of them look delicious!! Those are usually my family's go-to and they're never disappointed. I might have to give one a try someday. Come out and support Alkobar! read more
