A very popular spot and it's conveniently located across the street from Oriental Market. The lines were long but it moved fast and there were plenty of seating. It was spacious inside and there are plenty of tables as well. This was my first time having cebu style lechon and it certainly wouldn't be my last. The lechon pairs well with their soy vinegar sauce. A very hearty (and once in a while) meal! read more

Not going back!!! 1- foods are very salty 2 - very pricey for a cafeteria restaurant, 1 medium container for 1 item price is $15 compared to a better price of $11.99 for 2 items plus pancit and rice on a very good Filipino Restaurant. 3. Lechon is $22/lb and the skin is not crispy at all. Sauce for the salty Lechon is soy sauce and vinegar nothing else, no garlic sarsa like Mang Tomas. 4 -was very diasappointed on the casava cake, small slice I paid $9 versus $4.50 in other Filipino Restaurants. 5 -Very pricey in this restaurant but nothing is special. 6 -My girlfriend that I came with agreed to my review and no way we're going back. read more

I've been wanting to try this place since they've opened, but I wanted to give it time to settle down. Lechon belly- actually not a bad portion for about $13. I understand the cost of labor, pork, etc. I don't think it was salty especially if you are dipping it in the suka. I wish there was chilis to make it spicy. Chorizo fried rice- $15 was way to much for that size. It's turo turo, it shouldn't cost $15 but I just gave it a try anyways. Flavor was ok, but the rice was sticking to each other. $30 for lunch for one person is crazy, especially for turo turo. I wish they had combo plates since it's already made and I'm here on my lunch break. So positive- flavor was not bad Negative- price read more

Came here on a Friday around 12 noon. There were only a few individuals ahead of me. Purchased/review: 1pound of lechon- 7/10 a tad bit salty for me (many reviewers also said this. Instead of the normal lechon sauce, they give vinegar instead.) Paksiw (lechon with a soup base)- 1/10 this was very different from what I am used to. This was watery and tasted like adobo. It should not taste like this. Frozen chorizo (because they didn't have any cooked this day).- haven't cooked it yet. Pancit. - 7/10 nothing special. It was ok. I'd come back for the lechon but hoping they'll listen and add less salt. read more

Short line today and plenty of seating. $22/lb for roast pork belly. The side dishes were good additions. The roast pork were very juicy, and flavorful. The pork skin was the best part. I wish they had some hot sauce to go with everything. The rice was $2 per scoop. They have beer and sodas. This is a very straight forward deli food court style restaurant. Definitely over order on food items because you don't want to have to get back in line again. The staff was all warm and. Friendly. read more

I was so excited when Bai Cebu Lechon opened in Roseville! Any time a Filipino restaurant pops up nearby, I have to check it out. I had been hearing how busy they were and that they sometimes sold out of food, so I came with a game plan... arrive early! We showed up around 10:30 a.m. before the lunch crowd rolled in, and I'm glad we did. The restaurant is clean, cute, and has plenty of seating. It looks like they even have a stage for live entertainment, which would make for a fun dining experience. Ordering is cafeteria style (point-point) so you simply choose the dishes you'd like. We ordered the lechon, pancit, squid, a vegetable dish with eggplant and squash, leche flan, and another dessert made with sweet corn. The highlight of the meal was definitely the lechon. The pork was flavorful, and the skin had that crispy crunch every lechon fan hopes for. The leche flan was also good. It was firmer than the homemade versions I'm used to, but it was still a tasty dessert. Unfortunately, the pancit was the biggest disappointment. It was extremely salty...salty enough that everyone at the table kept reaching for their water. We asked if they had calamansi or even lemon to help balance the flavor, but they didn't have either available. I was honestly surprised since calamansi is such a staple with many Filipino dishes. We mentioned the saltiness to the staff because I'm hoping it was just an off day. I've noticed a few other reviewers mention similar experiences, so hopefully it's something they can improve. Overall, I'm still happy to have another Filipino restaurant in Roseville and will definitely give them another try. The lechon alone is worth coming back for, and I'm rooting for them to continue improving because I'd love to see them succeed. read more

For reference, Bai Cebu Lechon is located next to the Almond Tree Lounge in Roseville's Harding Plaza. Parking is super easy, barely an inconvenience. We, the Cebuanos are very proud of our lechon Cebu (roasted pig) in the Philippines. BCL doesn't cook the whole animal but instead does a rolled pork belly stuffed with spices then grilled to perfection in a patent pending charcoal oven. This version tastes as good as the Suisun City location. Crispy skin and succulent meat. When in Cebu, we eat our lechon with pusô (hanging rice). Here, in the USA, we settle for plain rice, as logistics and the skill set in creating pusô are both lacking. The other dishes regularly served are the Bam-i (50/50 pancit canton and sotanghon) and Dugo-dugo (pork blood with pork offal & bits). The latter challenges an adventurous palate if you haven't tried it yet. :) They have consigned Filipino pastries like hopia (flaky pastry with filling), maja blanca (coconut pudding) and Chocolate Monster (moist cake with custard filling and thick fudgy frosting). If you had to try one, sample the chocolate cake first as this is a legendary Cebu dessert popularized in the 80's. Food was really good!!! Now I'm craving again. The crew needs more experience to handle the customers more efficiently. Less time waiting is the management's aim and that's the gripe of most reviews. We're very glad our Cebu lechon cravings have been answered. We don't have to drive more than an hour plus now. read more

I really only want to give 3.5 stars but I rounded up instead of down. We went to try this new place for lechon. We arrived a few minutes after 10am and there was a line already. It took about 20 minutes for us to place our order and pay. We only ordered the lechon. The price is a bit high at $22/lb. The meat was really juicy but a bit salty as other reviews stated. The piece we got had really crispy skin that we enjoyed but that too was a bit salty. Also be aware that if you pay by credit card there is a 3% service charge added to your total. read more

I told myself that I will not visit Bai Lechon - Roseville while they're in their first few days opening because I'm pretty positive that lines will be long and true enough, I was right. But didn't regret my decision of coming. Bai Cebu Lechon- Roseville opened last Thursday, June 18. This Bai Cebu Lechon location is by far the biggest of the 3. This location was designed to have music jamming with a band from 6 - 10 pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Last Friday, we came twice- for lunch and for the show in the evening. The show in the evening has a $15 entrance fee which includes a free drink. It was totally worth it! The complex itself has a huge parking space. The inside of the restaurant was simply decorated with Cebu posters and signages which reminded me of my younger years. They are open Wednesday to Sunday from 10:00am to 3:00pm and Fridays and Saturdays from 6:00 to 10:00 pm with live band on site for a $15 cover charge. Closed on Monday and Tuesday. Me and my friends came in last Friday about 30 minutes before closing time and line is still long. But when you come in on opening days and you know there's going to be really long line, patience is the key. On to the food - for this visit, of course we ordered their renowned Lechon belly ( crispy skin and tender and juicy meat that is seasoned perfectly), dinuguan ( pork blood soup with meat), pancit (by far the best I've ever tasted). As per Bai Lechon, their menu will change daily to give variety of options and avoid having people loose interest due to repetitive menu (make sense). Local businesses thrive by the support of the community so we all need to be patient and fair in reviewing. If you like the food and gave a good description or review of the food then it's not fair rating them 1 or 2 stars just because the line is long and you waited a long time. So please be fair! I definitely and highly recommend Bai Cebu Lechon. June 2026 read more

I heard about their opening and I was so excited about it because there is a new filipino restaurant here in Roseville. I went Friday since their opening day is Thursday and still long line from outside. Owners are very warm and friendly. Overwhelming support from other nearby cities (Rocklin, Lincoln, Elk Grove) I was in line for about an hour but it's okay I'm so excited to try their lechon belly. So I ordered mango atchara, chorizo, paklay and of course the ever famous lechon belly. Im about to buy their dinuguan but I told myself probably not today beacuse their dinuguan is very soupy. I had a bite of mango atchara and it was okay, their chorizo is okay too not a big fan, paklay is good and their lechon belly is really good not to much of a fat just okay but it's very crispy and delicious. The ambiance inside reminds me back home, friendly people gathered in one place, they also have live bands every Friday and Saturday night that I will try eventually. I will definitely come back for their lechon belly! read more

I intended to swing by during their Grand Opening but observed the closing time at 3PM. I managed to swing by on a Saturday around 12:30PM. Ample parking. I arrived to an extremely long line. That being said, I HIGHLY recommend arriving early. That being said, I didn't mind it as I was able to converse with patrons that have been to their other locations - at one point, I believe one of the co-owners came out to mingle with us all and offering water and I believe pan de sal during the wait. Once inside, the establishment was very clean and spacious - Most tables were occupied. Everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals. I observed a lot of us (including myself) were planning to order to go and many ordered large portions which probably was the reason for the long wait time. I admit I was worried they would run out by the time I was able to place the order. I ordered 1 lb of lechon and after some convincing with patrons in line, I also ordered a few chorizo. I was slightly disappointed that they were short on many of the other side orders but it is something I am sure they'll perfect as time goes on. The food was amazing! I generally only have lechon during celebrations, but this was different. Very succulent and flavorful! I regret only ordering 1lb. It's one of those "must return and order more" in the future type of meals. The chorizo was different than what I am accustomed to but in a good way as it had a slightly sweet flavor. Overall, I WILL return in the near future and plan to order in advance for any gatherings I have in the future. Very glad they have a Filipino restaurant representing the City of Roseville. Thank you! read more

My coworker recommended this place for lunch and being so close to work I figured why not. I had seen the post on social media and knew there would probably be a wait and there was but they moved through fairly quickly. Staff was helpful to let us know all the different sides they were offering that day. This restaurant is a cafetería style, so walk up and through the line. You can opt for dine in or carry out on this day we did carry out as we had to get back to work but they offer plenty of seating inside. read more

The queue at this restaurant isn't nearly as long as they make it seem. The reason there is a line every day is not because of overwhelming demand, but because the service is extremely slow and inefficient. During my visit, it took approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes to serve only 20-30 customers. The line barely moved, and there appeared to be little sense of urgency from the staff. Long wait times can be understandable when a restaurant is exceptionally busy, but in this case the pace of service was unacceptable. Customers were left standing and waiting for extended periods. The overall experience was frustrating and not worth the amount of time spent waiting. The food is okay. Some of the skin are crispy and some are chewy even though it came from the same roll., No meal is worth standing in line for over an hour and a half due to poor service and inefficient operations. Unless significant improvements are made, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone who values their time. read more

Another Day Another Cebu Bai Lechon- Wow..Delicious&Tasty. We love it here!!! We went here at lunchtime, and the line is still packed with customers who are craving Cebu Lechon. I was in line around 12:45pm, and I placed my order around 1:13pm. It has been worth the wait to line up for delicious Cebu Lechon. This is worth a meal for lunch. We decided to eat here inside the store instead of going out. It's a really good setting, clean and modern. We highly recommend this place, and we will always come back. read more

Expensive... $22 per pound of lechon belly is way too much. Ribeye is more cheaper. Maybe once in awhile. Average cost per meal per person is around $30 and for a point point place...self service?! Nevertheless, the lechon is good, but not the best in my own opinion. Again I'm NOT DISCOURAGING anyone to to try them. This review is my sole opinion. Goodluck! read more

Tried their food multiple times. I cannot tell you how much I crave for good Pinoy dishes since I moved to Roseville. I can cook so I know a good food tastes like. Service is ok. Give them a chance, of course they have flaws, some employees are overwhelmed with the flock of customers. The place is new, clean and well maintained by the owners and staff. I would always want to eat there without feeling cramped like in other Pinoy establishments. I went to the Cebu Nights last night and enjoyed it. It's like a breath of Pinoy vibes like my college years in Baguio and my working years in Manila. And who would have thought Roseville can have a nightlife. Love this place and will keep coming back. read more

I had high hopes for this new Filipino restaurant- especially since it was in the Roseville area. We walked in around 10:20am on Saturday morning and there was a long line of people waiting against the walls. The wait was a good 20-25min before we reached the front. I didn't see a menu just a window where you could watch the lechon being prepared. The couple behind me seemed confused as well on how to order. My total was $60 and I got 1lb of lechon, a small pancit, Biko and Leche Flan. Food was okay (dessert was good) but I don't know if I'd wait that long again.*Fee for using credit card read more

the lechon was very good but it was $22 a pound and one pound definitely did not feed 2 people. Other than the lechon, they only had like 4 ready to order items - also rather expensive. Service was awesome! read more

Super excited to try this place especially the Cebu Lechon. I ordered a pound but after tasting it, felt really disappointed due to excessive saltiness to it. Didn't even use the sauce cause it was salty already. I'm thinking that it might be a bad batch and the other Lechon is not as salty. Maybe I'll try again and see if I was right about the bad batch l. I also noticed that it was a bit burned. I also tried the tripe menudo but it was chewy and hard. Could be better if it was tender. read more

Service was good, they were all nice and friendly. But the food was a major disappointment. I ordered lechon, the skin was a litlle burnt, salty, and just not good. Dinuguan was way too sour, runny, and bland. The bam-i was bland too. And it's expensive. I'd rather drive to Island Pacific on Elk Grove next time. I am so baffled why they are popular? Definitely not coming back. All their entrees are ala carte, turo-turo style but no combo option? It's just not the Filipino style. I hope the owners could improve on the taste of their food. read more

Was disappointed at some point. the experience wasnt so good, The cebuchon skin was to hard and kinda burnt compare to the others oh and to salty.. lechon are overpriced like a pound for 22bucks is to much and the service was slow which is bad when you have a long line..they need to step their game up if they want to keep customers . Its nice to have a new filipino joint in Roseville but they just need to train on how to work faster to get it right. I will be coming back though regardless because i love lechon read more

The lechon was worth the hype. So delicious, crispy and tasty. There was something unique about how they cooked the skin. There's the crispy layer and then the 2nd layer where it is like eating really tasty chicharon. Meat was also tasty and juicy and only had a bit of fatty portion. All-yummy meat and skin! The bam-i was ok but pairs with the lechon well. The acharra was very good as well. We also tried dinuguan and it was good but very soup-y and had not enough meat in the small serving/order. The only other suggestion is to have a faster person to run the cash register for more efficient flow. Will definitely recommend the lechon and will come back when we crave for it in the future! read more

I ordered Cebu lechon which was crispy but way too oily and so was the pork paksiw, (lechon in soup base) which was too oily + vinegar-y, pancit was meh (surprised there's no meat, just all noodles, and not used to so many canton noodles and less bihon noodles). Weirdly, they have a dipping sauce for lechon, but no calamansi juice for pancit. (Something I'm not used to again.) I also am not too thrilled when saying you want to "eat in" and the cashier still gives you a styrofoam container and paper plates, no plastic knife, only fork and spoon, and no serving tray. If you order multiple dishes, it's a hassle juggling these items when walking to your table. To me, it feels a little impersonal, that's all. The only bonus is that I came here for the first time with a friend on a Wednesday around noon, and there was no long lines, or long waiting times. Gave this place a try, but IMO, it's one and done. read more

Waited till the lines died down. Went yesterday for lunch (around 10:30) and there was probably 6 people ahead of us. I was disappointed. The lechon meat was salty but the skins was crunchy and well seasoned. The dishes were not good. We had mungo which was very watery (like soup), my adobong pusit was okay but they left the long cartilage in the body of the squid. The pancit was okay but I like mine better! lol the Biko and flan we bought for dessert was good. All of the dishes are à la carte so it gets pricey especially when you add the rice. Won't be returning! read more

I am so thrilled that this place is open and serving delicious Filipino Lechon! I was working so my mom graciously picked me up some Lechon.

Went on a Saturday for one of their Bai Cebu Nights. They offered one free drink with ticket purchase ($15 cover charge for the event). Fun event overall, but the food could've been better. Sisig was very wet, and kind of sour (must have had too much vinegar), and the Lechon kawali was overcooked and very dry. Haven't yet had the Cebuchon, but wished it was served instead of the menu they had for Cebu night. The manager/owner seems to be more engaging and welcoming with customers via the videos on their Facebook page, but we didn't have that experience unfortunately. read more

I went there to see the live band last Friday. The venue is too small for having a live band, the sound was too loud for the size of the room. They don't have age restrictions since they serve alcohol. I saw a family with little kids, poor kid he was on his iPad and covering his ears. The food was okay, sisig could've been better I've had sisig before but theirs need some work and the calamari was alright. The only one I like was the fried lechon. Not enough drink selections. I like the ambience. I was really excited that there's a Filipino restaurant that has a live band but if they improve some of the foods, drinks selections and the loudness of the sound for the size of the room my wife and I will go back again.
