Filipino food in Virginia Beach! I've been here a few times, but never on a week night. We (party of four) walked in at about 5:30 which was about 30 minutes before closing time. Being from the dmv area, it felt weird for a restaurant would close so early- especially in the middle of dinner time. Even so, there was still a good amount of variety to choose from to eat, and it was delicious. read more

The staff here is super wonderful. I've lived around the corner from here for 2 years and never knew it was Filipino cuisine and I'm kicking myself for it. We were able to walk in, bring a mask currently, and the buffet was out as it was a Saturday. They had lumpia, pancit, desserts I have never seen, adobo, and other entrees I hadn't seen either. The prices were VERY reasonable, such as 25 pieces of lumpia for $12.50. They have a variety of options for catering trays and large orders. The containers to go were a great size since a medium pancit served me and my so well throughout the day. We also got their bbq chicken on skewers. I can't wait to go back and try more. The lumpia was very flavorful and cooked right then, which they made sure not to close it all the way to make sure it didn't get soggy and told us. It didn't even take that long to get 25 lumpia cooked and we were happy to wait. Their options for the buffet change daily, so it's best to go in to get what you want. I wish I had gotten photos, but my phone was dead. I'll make sure to get some next time. read more

My Filipina wife was very happy when she came to the establishment. The food reminded her from her home country.

Great Filipino food place for the east coast! I'm from California and used to a lot of different places to eat Filipino food and so far this is the best place here in Virginia read more

So Far this one of my favorite Filipino restaurant here in Virginia beach! Food are always looks fresh even at end of the day! And best of all they will never give you small serving, they'll put a lot on your to go styro, unlike other places they are so skimpy with the amount of food. I love the guy who works there he is always nice and friendly treats you like a family! Kare kare is one of my favorite here! And the place smells good not like other places. Very clean. They offer buffet on sunday! read more

Fiesta Kainan - Asian Fusion Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

We came here for their Sunday buffet, $13.99. Food was good with good variety. They also have a good selection of Asian desserts. I particularly liked the one that has Yam deep fried. There was a big crowd when we were there and most are Phillipinos, good sign that the food is authentic and good. Definitely worth a visit of you like Asian food, and the price is very good for the quality. read more

Hampton Roads has one of the biggest Filipino communities in Virginia and the amount of Filipino restaurants around that area is indicative of that. I was in the mood for something different and used the YELP app to see what was good for lunch and Oriental Cuisine Kainan popped up. I had no idea what to expect before coming here; if it was a sit down restaurant, fast food, fast casual, etc. I would consider this place more of a fast casual restaurant. I came here on a Saturday to get lunch to go. I decided to get two 16 ounce entrees with meat, each at $6.99 a box which was a great deal. Every box gets a HUGE scoop of rice and one meat and one veggie option. The first box had pork adobo and lumpia and the second box I got lechon and pork pancit. My total came out to less than $15 which was very affordable for two people and they fill up your entire to go box with food. Although I didn't dine in, there were about 10-15 tables to handle the lunch crowd. The service was friendly and very quick and was reminiscent of a cafeteria lunch where you point at what you want as you move down the line. We didn't get to eat the food until about 25 minutes later but the food was still warm. I enjoyed the pancit as it was light and tasty and the lechon had a good balance of fat and lean meat and had a good crunch to it. SN: near the checkout area there was a small selection of pre packaged foods like barbecue pork on a stick and desserts like flan and ube which I want to try on my next visit. read more

Wow! Please stop for the Lechong! Ahhhhhhhh I believe in miracles...if you love Philippine food... stop here read more

I have been searching for a filipino restaurant comparable to my favorite places in San Diego. Most of the places around here are NOT authentic and cater more toward american style filipino food. This restaurant is TRUE filipino food. No substitutions, no fake food lables to attract the extended public. Just good, whole hearted filipino food and generous portions. I never thought i would find it. They have a large variety of choices. I got the pansit, bbq skewers and lumpia. Everything was delicious. The bbq skewers are marinated and grilled perfectly and their lumpia was not greasy and so flavorful. Their service is courteous and fast. The line was long when i arrived at 12:30, but i got all the way through checkout in only 10 minutes. Everything is kept very clean as well. The only negative is that they're only open wednesday-sunday. I cant wait to come back! read more

The best Filipino food place I've had in this area! We ate Lechon Kawali, Lumpia, Pork barbecue on a stick, and something new for me, Tokwa at Baboy (tofu and pork). So good! Paid cash and we received free drinks per platter! We return every time we visit VA! Just did and had the Sunday buffet. read more

This place is amazing. I'm from north luzon area and their food here is exactly the taste of my hometown dishes. Everything here is filipino legit and for the $12.99 buffet you get excellent quality filipino food. A true cafeteria style eating. They had a great variety of dishes and desserts including all the classics - lechon kawali, adobo, lumpia, pancit, sinigang, puto, leche flan.. etc etc. Sundays here definitely gets packed so come after the church crowd. We didn't have to wait too long though when we came in peak hours. Maybe a 10 minute wait. I brought 3 of my friends here who never had filipino food and they loved it. I always make it a go to place whenever I'm around Virginia Beach. read more

In general, their food tastes homemade with fresh ingredients especially the vegetables, always crisp and bright green .one dish that I regret I ordered, ukoy! It looked good under the warmer light, but don't be fooled. It was very tough and chewy.. Granted it had a good size shrimp but not worth to buy. What a waste! If I can rate ukoy alone, it will be a negative (-) star! read more

Very good Filipino Food. However, the buffet on Sunday is PACKED. The after church crowd packs the place and you will have to share our table with people you do not know. They ALWAYS have problems with their AC, so be prepared. They do not have regular fountain drinks or tea. They have like a regular water cooler for room temp water and they sell can soda and canned juice. The buffet is good and decent price, I recommend getting your order to go. read more

The sweetest, nicest girl helped me with my order. Excellent customer service! I needed to spend $5 to meet the requirement to use my credit card, she suggested purchasing 2 lumpia which put my order at $5.01 read more

I live with the best filipino cook in the 757. That's gospel. 12 years ago I married the most amazing woman that happen to be the daughter of a lady with some serious cooking game. LOL. I'm taking about that " Lola". It's always been a hard sell to cough up my hard earned money to pay for filipino food, especially when I can eat for free. We decided to give this place a try one Saturday...and we were surprisingly pleased. C Don't waste your time. Go straight for the filipino BBQ. It's the realest and is as ubiquitous at pinoy parties as your tipsy Auntie Baby getting her line dancing in. Mabuhay kaibigan! read more

Whoa! That's some excellent lumpia!! Special pancit is most delightful too. My coworker treated us last week to lunch and I must say, it was so good I'm already trying to figure out what day I should take some home for dinner. My only issue, the lumpia is cut in half and I don't want anyone to see me consume 20 when it's really 10 lol. The sauce is tasty too. Hhhmm, if I take the long way home Friday I'll go right by here. Yep, already have dinner planned. read more

Had the sisig and lechon kawaii. Food tasted great and there was so much food for around $10. Went.on a Sunday, so there was a huge line probably because of church folks. read more

Came here for lunch. Nice colorful space.They have the usual Filipino staples. Price a bit higher than the other Pinoy restaurants. Pay cash and you get a free drink. They don't use styros for plates but instead the breakables. Come here for lunch where everything is freshly cooked. read more

A foodie's delight. I don't know what everything is called but it is superb. Highly recommend! Do it!

One of our weekly lunch spots, wide variety of choices. Fresh food and great tastes. Serving line style pick and choose. Very friendly staff. Best in the area for Philippine food , special order available for event read more

Classic no frills family style Filipino cuisine. Not the place for a first date but definitely the place to go after church on Sunday! They offer quite the variety of Filipino food. An awesome place to bring people who have never had Filipino food before. Sunday's they have a buffet with all the best stuff (crispy lechon bits, dinuguan, kare-kare, and pansit bihon). Atmosphere is normally packed on Sunday's and it doesn't really die down but it's worth the wait. You pay before hand and then get a seat after, don't be that person saving seats before you even payed haha! Give this place a shot and I think you'll be happy with the results! read more

Totally felt like I was in the Philippines when walking in yesterday for their lunch buffet. Hot as (bleep) would be the best description. Yelp reviews will tell you that the place gets packed on Sunday so let me confirm that is the absolute truth. Plan on waiting 10-20 minutes. There really isn't any rhyme or reason to waiting in line for a table. Pay when you arrive and then wait around until seating is available for your party. I'm not sure of other days but I know Sunday is all about the buffet. They had about 10 different food options... don't ask me the names of all the dishes. Everything was pretty good Then again, my favorite thing they offered were the simple and obvious lechon and chicken wings. Of course, they had your typical lumpia and pancit. There were a couple dessert options, one of them being flan, which I'm not a fan of to begin with so I didn't try anything sweet. Filipino food as a whole is pretty heavy so be sure to be hungry when you arrive. Overall, pretty good food. Don't expect anything too fancy with decor because it's really simple inside. Expect lots of food for a decent price. Three of us with drinks cost $40 so pricing was quite reasonable. read more

Have not been back since the summer of 2017, but not by choice. This location is about a two-hour drive from our home, but needless to say, we make the drive just for the service and food! On this visit, we noticed the renovations and new look, but the food is still authentic and never disappointing! Every dish on the buffet line is awesome! The price is cheap for all you can eat! They even have a dessert addition to the buffet line with an assortment of drinks. I would say this is the best Filipino food in Virginia! read more

This is one of the few Filipino restaurants in the area that offers a buffet selection. Hope you come here hungry because there is plenty of food to choose from. And Filipino food is typically heavy so you will be satisfied. Inside of the restaurant was cramped and tight but now they are renovating it to make more space for diners. I go for the kare kare, chicken adobo, and chicken wings. But they have the works their including Lumpia and pancit and lechon. If you are not familiar with Filipino food, just know whatever you pick, you win . They have the usual Filipino desserts as well like leche flan and fruit salad so it's a complete meal for not a bad price. Only negative thing is that their water dispenser is just multiple water containers that you pour yourself which can be a sanitary issue? Not sure. The space was inside was cramped but hopefully when they finish renovations, it'll be more spacious. Good place to eat Filipino food for Sunday Brunch. read more

Stopped by this place on Sunday for lunch. Heard of it a while ago but never went by. Glad I did. I was a little timid about walking in. It was super , super packed and I hate large crowds. But I had a major craving for lechon and lumpia so my mind was made up. I knew church had just let out too. The sign on the door said 12.99 buffet. I just wanted to pick up something to go. Everything moved pretty fast. I just went to the front of the line to order my food. I was very happy. I definitely will be back again. hopefully on a Sunday but when they first open. read more

Authentic! Great ambiance if dining in. I visited on a Saturday, for a little take out before work. I am a fan of jazz & they had the jazz music blasting throughout the restaurant. It was slightly too loud, but it didn't seem to bother anyone who sitting down eating. read more

Stopped by this restaurant for the first time at around 5pm on a Saturday. The restaurant was pretty vacant and it took us awhile to order since their menu was a bit confusing. But the workers were friendly and answered all our questions. I got the platter with two entree's. The crispy pork and something called a kare kare with white rice. When it was time to pay, the cashier told us that if we pay with cash, we each get a free drink with our meals, if not it's $1 for a drink. My husband and I don't ever carry cash so we only had $15. So I paid for my meal separate because after taxes we were 25 cents short. Both of our meals cost us about $16. When we sat down and took a bite, none of our food was remotely hot in temperature... the best way to describe it is when you have a big family gathering and you set up a buffet style feast and leave it out and eat it all day! The only thing that was hot was the rice that was in a separate rice pot. We really wanted lumpia but they sold out.. I didn't notice the hours beforehand but I guess it's understandable since they generally close at 6 pm. They also only do buffets every Sunday and the hours are from 11am~4pm, so you can really only go for lunch or late lunch I saw a sign that said it was $12.99 a person. My husband's pork had mostly fat on them and he was disappointed and all the food was so greasy that we felt gross after our meal. One of the workers walked past us and noticed we didn't really eat very much and made a comment saying "you didn't finish your food, already full?". I might give them another chance for a Sunday buffet, but not for a long time. read more

Fiesta Kainan - Fatty pork - Asian Fusion Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

We ate here right before embarking back to our journey to eastern KY. Apparently VA Beach saved the best for last. My family seemed to really love this place. They had deep fried pork belly that my wife savors. They even had Bangus (Milkfish. The best Filipino fish). They had a unique way they tried to keep people from using credit cards. If you pay cash your drinks are free. That's a GREAT idea that I couldn't utilize. I will in the future. read more

They have really good Adobo but it's kind of greasy, if you get the sabow (broth). It's the adobo I actually like. There are also many other options to choose from read more

Looking for genuine Filipino food in the area? Want something that's absolutely delicious and a great price? Look no further. Growing up in a VERY Filipino household, I ate true Filipino food every single day, and this place offers a ton of options and all of them are good. My whole family and I came on a Sunday for brunch around 10:30; we were seated quickly (partially due to the fact that my aunt and uncle have been there enough that the servers know them). Their buffet offered food such as: fried rice sinigang adobo kare kare pinakbet But my favorite was the longanisa (breakfast sausage). Good longanisa in the US is hard to come by, but their's was delicious. I would come back just for this. However, their dessert options are also hard to find. They offered puto, flan, some corn casserole, and ube. Honestly, I would be back here all the time if I still lived in VB. The only criticisms I have are that the decor is super lacking, and the drink and dessert area can get crowded if the buffet line is long. read more

If only this restaurant was down by fort lee drove straight here from Petersburg for lunch and I'm so glad we did!!! They had the best rating for Filipino food, just what my family and I have been craving! Great way to start my Mother's Day weekend. I'm trying to convince my husband to come back tomorrow (Sunday buffet) for Mother's Day brunch! The staff is very friendly! Especially the guy =) read more

One of my favorite Filipino Sunday brunch buffets!! We went here after a half marathon and the food just hit the spot. It's truly a Filipino spot with good food, no decor no matching seats and tables, mom and pop family type of Filipino restaurant, you basically step into the Philippines when walking in read more

$10.99 Lunch Buffet on Sundays is as clutch as you can get with the best homestyle Filipino dishes in the area other than your mom or grandma's kitchen. $6.99 on the weekdays includes two buffet choices! The lechon & kare kare are my top 2 faves! The lechon skin is so crispy, and the pieces are more meaty than fatty! The kare kare was very savory and you can bet I got second plates of these! There's a great selection of other popular Filipino dishes such as, pancit, lumpia, dinaguan, chicken adobo, vegetable medley, menudo, pinakbit...and more. The sinigang was sour perfection, just how I like it! The dessert selection includes puto, cassava cake, fruit salad, and leche flan. The atmosphere however, is very...Filipino. Lol. The layout is too crowding for my comfort. When you walk in, the cash register is at your right and it's hard to form a line without blocking the door or getting in someone else's way, this being on a busy Sunday. There are bar seating, tables, and booths but prepare to wait if you come with a large family if you are planning to sit all together. On the weekdays, the register is near the buffet and it is less busy. When you walk in everyone happens to stare at you, probably to see if they know you, because "we" all happen to know each other... right? Lol. The buffet is definitely worth it and the staff is hard working! Whether you are new to Filipino cuisine or not, or just very selective when it comes to Filipino dishes such as I am, you will find something to enjoy! read more

Overall a good place. The food was great, and plentiful. Only reason that it got 4 stars is that the place was unorganized. Shoulder to shoulder, and jam packed. I would've made people line up outside, instead of blocking the front entrance. read more

This place has the best Filipino food in the Hampton Roads area. It is a cafeteria with a buffet but the food stays hot and the staff are friendly. They have a wide selection of PI favorites. The pancit and menudo were great. I thought the kuri-kuri was bitter but the friend I had with me thought it was delicious. The Shanghai spring rolls and Lechon Kwali were the best I've had in the US. I'm sure I'll be back again. read more

They're just the best! They have the best filipino food by far, and they have buffets during Sunday! I can't say enough how good the good the food is, the yummiest I've had since coming to Virginia! -Lets talk about the letchon kawali: Super crispy skin, tender meat, not dry, hard or chewy. It's just plain delicious! They serve mang Tomas on the side where the sauces are. -lumpia: crispy, not too salty or dry. I can gobble them up in seconds! -fried chicken: better than mine! So crispy, well flavored and cooked to perfection. They have a bunch of food like caldereta, Kare-kare, adobong pusit, veggies etc! I liked the caldereta and kare2 the most. They have Sinigang Sabaw too that'll cure ur sinuses. Just the right sourness and pork flavor. So much desserts to choose from. Creamy flan, maja Blanca, turon, u name it! I love their bilo bilo, heavenly! This place is by far the yummiest filipino buffet hands down. I'm from California and we've been looking for a nice filipino place to come and eat at and we found it. read more

A hidden Gem in Virginia Beach. Best Filipino food in the area. If you aren't looking for the restaurant you will miss it because it's right behind Captain D's on Indian River Rd. I have been here on numerous occasions for lunch, take out and Sunday buffet. The service is great, you are greeted before you even reach the counter. I have ordered Lumpia and Pancit for parties, which my family loves. It was done on time and I didn't have long to wait to pick up my order. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others. They are only open from Wednesday to Sunday. Sunday is when they have a buffet, $10.99 for adults, $5.99 for children a day $1.00 can soda. The place packed on Sundays so come early.ok read more

This is your typical Filipino "family" restaurant. Meaning, it's hot inside and people everywhere eating. The blanket of odor will hit your nose as you walk in, but rest assured, their food is amazing! There is absolutely no other Filipino restaurant that serves food even as close to my mother. Sinigang is yummy, they have kare Kare, adobo, tocino, fried rice, desserts such as bibingka, leche flan, and cassava. This place is definitely a hidden gem!! read more
