Capuno's Lutong Bahay - Pork BBQ Plate and Chicken Adobo - Filipino Near Me - Santa Maria, California

I heard about Capuno's Lutong Bahay through the article in the SB Independent! I admittedly had never tried Filipino food before and knew it was a must-do the next time I was in Santa Maria. When my mom and I were coming to Santa Maria for a movie, I suggested Capuno's. She had also never tried Filipino food before but was ready! When we arrived, the first thing we noticed was the display case with all of the treats. They had desserts ranging from ube brownies and cookies to rice pudding. We ended up ordering a chicken combo plate and halo halo. While we were waiting for the chicken plate, the halo halo came out. My mom and I dug in and it was soooo good. I knew halo halo was composed of various parts and was wondering how they'd work together. They worked great! The corn flakes added a lovely crunch to the ube ice cream on top. I loved digging into each component. My mom also thought it was very delicious! We took our chicken plate to go. When we got to eating, it was very delicious! The chicken was perfectly cooked and the sauce was very flavorful. The rice was delicious as was the pancit. My mom really liked the lumpia. Overall, the food from Capuno's was very delicious! I happened to try a chicken plate from another Filipino business and whilst delicious I realized that I preferred the pancit from Capuno's. The man at the front that took our order was also very kind and helpful. I will definitely come back and highly recommend to anyone interested! read more

As I was driving between LA and the Bay Area, I decided to stop for lunch in Santa Maria. As I was about to turn left, I was overjoyed to see Capuno's Lutong Buhay on the plaza's signage. I didn't have any plans for lunch until I saw Capuno's sign and it led me to eat Filipino Food for lunch. I entered their spacious restaurant with a decent amount of tables, chairs and walking area. I noticed their bamboo decorations and framed pictures of their menu items. I truly felt welcome and did not hesitate to order in Filipino/Tagalog. I ordered their Barbecue Chicken plate and it comes with pancit bihon, lumpia and steamed rice. There's an option to opt for garlic rice, but I opted for regular steamed rice. The plate only cost less than $18. I waited for my order for less than 10 minutes and the plate was graciously brought to my table. The barbecue chicken was flavorful, tender and perfectly charred. The pancit bihon was very flavorful with generous portions of meat and veggies. Their fried lumpia has a unique taste with ground meat and chopped veggies. Capuno's offers legit Filipino cuisine in Santa Maria! It's perfect if anyone's craving homemade Filipino entrees while driving along the 101 between SoCal and the Bay Area. I just shared my first fond memory of Capuno's to my mom and family in the Bay Area. On our next trip along the 101, I would love to bring them here for a tasty Filipino meal at Capuno's. Tunay na Lutong Bahay na, napakasarap pa! read more

this place is absolutely amazing and the Capuno's team is so kind and wonderful. Stopped by while passing through on a roadtrip and capunos hands down has the best Filipino food I've had in California. I'm from the Bay Area and try to try a lot of the places and capunos has remained my absolute favorite. I got the lechon kawali combo plate. Everything is amazing and delicious though you cannot go wrong with anything from capunos lutong Bahay. I wish I had one closer to me. I even got some adobo and biko to take home with me! read more

Capuno's Lutong Bahay. What a treasure! This is one of two Filipino restaurants in Santa Maria. This isn't fast food. This is Filipino home cooking and EVERYTHING is delicious. My wife and I try to come as often as we can. I love getting any and all the "silog" meals. The tortang talong is very good too. My wife loves their liempo. Their halo halo is great as well. And you will regret it if you don't get their coconut iced coffee. It's very much family owned and operated. Raul runs the kitchen and cooks everything himself. His wife will run the counter. Their daughter is their pastry chef. And makes solid desserts. The location itself is very much a local diner kind of ambience. I hope they get to expand. Definitely come here and give your support. It's delicious food and they are a very sweet family. read more

Masarap (Delicious)! The place was clean, simple, and unassuming. Our family had a wonderful time sharing delicious lutong bahay that reminded us of home. The food we ordered was delicious, and the servings were generous. They have very good customer service, and we appreciate that the owner came out and took the time to chat with us despite having a busy day. Maraming salamat and Mabuhay! read more

Stopped by while staying in Santa Maria since I heard that there was a good Filipino takeout place and found this place on Yelp. I love Filipino food and had a lot of it in the Philippines. My family got the Sinigang, pares, inasal (bbq), and the beef broth. Every dish was great. The sinigang and beef broth bowls were big and the flavors were quite good. Sinigang was p sour and the beef in the broth was super tender. The inasal was also quite authentic. I haven't had pares before but it was flavorful and the star of the show. Each dish came with rice, pancit, and lumpia. The pancit was very good and the lumpia Shanghai was homemade, crispy, and fresh. The shop owner Raul came out and chatted with us. He was very friendly and told us they recently opened in 2023. The business is all family run and they make all the food themselves. Prices were reasonable and the portions were generous. The ambiance was very relaxed and comforting. Not sure if they have a lot of business right now but considering the quality, they def should have more! Def beats Bay Area Filipino food and I will definitely come back to have some more authentic homemade Filipino food next time I'm in town! read more

Great family business made you feel welcome and the food was great. We will return definitely for the egg rolls. The lumpia is close to what I had in San Diego. read more

We had been long time fans of Jade's Filipino Food and were willing to try out this business that took over after Jade's closed. The menu has changed but they still had our favorites - a pork adobo combo & pansit. The combo included the adobo, rice, pancit & lumpia. Their adobo is slightly different but good. There are bones in their version so just be sure and check for them. The adobo sauce is very good. The lumpia is excellent. The pancit is good but a little light on the veges & chicken, mostly noodles. If they 'beefed' that up, it would be perfect. There have just opened so overlook the handwritten menu, printed ones are coming. We will certainly return. read more

The food was delicious again! I came back for the Crispy Pata which can feed 2-3 people depending on how hungry you are. I previously had the Lechon Kawali. Which was delicious as well. Crispy on the outside and tender pork belly on the inside. The owner & family really love to cook. You can taste it in their food. I'll definitely be back to try some more dishes. read more

Capuno's Lutong Bahay - Adobo, Bangus - Filipino Near Me - Santa Maria, California

Was in Santa Maria area, thought of Filipino food and found Capuno's "Lutong Bahay" which means "Home Cooked." Looked promising with fairly good ratings. However, I was not impressed since I know what a real good "home cooked" Filipino cuisine could be. I tried the special of the day, Pinakbet which is basically a mixture of vegetables sauted in either fish sauce or shrimp paste. Their version was boring, dry, served in too small of a portion compare to price $18, and lacked some protein like pork. The side fried egg rolls or lumpia and noodles aka pansit were good. I liked the Uber crinkle cookie a lot but the Ube cream cold brew that lacked cream, not so much. I may go back to try other dishes but I wouldn't go out of my way for it either. read more

Serving size in comparison to price. I understand that inflation has gone up. This is why many people choose not to eat out anymore.

I came to Capuno's once with my boyfriend and loved it. I finally had the opportunity to order their catering size plates and got the famous lumpia and pancit for a work potluck. When I tell you that the food was GONE within minutes. Everyone loved it more than any other food. This is an excellent family establishment that provides excellent quality food with some of the best customers service around. I recommend trying any of their desserts, as they're all made in house, and are fantastic. I will be patronizing this business more often. A 10/10 experience. If you have an itch for something new or for some classic Filipino food, Capuno's is the place to go! read more

The strip mall showed the sign as Jade's Filipino food. Capuno's had taken over December 1st so the signage was a little confusing. We found it since they did have a sign above their entrance.We came to get an order to go but ended up eating it over an hour later since we didn't get back right away so my lumpia was not crispy but full of flavor. I should have eaten it when I first got it. Hubby got the longanisa combo that came with 2 scoops of rice, pancit, lumpia and cucumber. He asked if the longanisa was homemade but I didn't ask them so if they are homemade you should market it as such cuz he loved it! My tortang talong (eggplant) was just what I was craving! We had been on the road for a few days so we missed having rice and home cooked food . Thank you and Happy New Year! read more

Food was so so. Service was ver good. Atmosphere was nice and had a very clean feel. Unfortunately I went there for the food. Nothing was bad, just not wow, this tastes great ! Itsa mystery to me why the cooks don't taste / eat their creations before serving to the public. Go back for another meal ? I would have to pass . I'll save my money so I can go to the Philippines.

They are the kindest restaurant owners in Santa Maria. We were on a road trip up north during Thanksgiving holiday. Having difficulty finding a restaurant that open late at night, the owner was took an order from us even thought they are closed already and cooked up authentic Pilipino dishes for us , a hungry family of six. They even gave us extra Pancit so we can share at the hotel. What a great experience! I highly recommend giving Camino Lutong Bahai a try when you are in the area. The dessert, purple yam brownie was yummy. My son love their Philippino spaghetti. read more

Amazing, courteous service, great prices and delicious food. From the friendly young woman that took our order to the cooks in the back that came out personally to ask us how the food was, it was a five star service. And I craved the food in the days after I left it was so good. I will be back! read more

Capuno's Lutong Bahay - Pork adobo plate - Filipino Near Me - Santa Maria, California

If the smells don't grab you and bring you in you better check your pulse. The food here is very very good. The menu isn't huge which means that the dishes they do are paid attention to and very tasty. Do not knowing the menu stop you, ask and they will inform you on everything. Food comes in combo and ala arte. The combo comes with Lumpia (think of the best egg roll you ever had), Rice and Pancit (thin noodles that rock) and you choose your main to go with it. I had the BBQ and let me tell you don't miss it !! And the crispy Pata is a must !! Think crispy pork like no other. The crispy fish was also very good and I know I'm gonna sound like a broken record but try it and DO NOT MISS THE DESSERTS . The Halo halo is a must but they also have mini cheesecakes and the Ube (purple yam) is prevalent in their desserts. If you're in Santa Maria and want to try something new and Delicious stop by and enjoy a Philippino feast . read more
