Very home-like, feels like I'm in the Philippines! I love the delicious food (extra shout out on the sisig carbonara) and the warm environment :) read more

They served the most innovative lumpiang sariwa and pata tim! I'm definitely inviting my family and friends there! Filipino food served here has the flavor of home but this restaurant has kicked up the taste of Pinoy food up a notch! (Or several notches) They have tickled our palate as well as our eyes to enjoy new ways of eating original Pinoy food. Pinoys being adventurous in their culinary skills like to mix a little surprise element in their food. For example, serving an open faced lumpiang sariwa with fried lumpia wrappers on a mound of vegetables with a sauce that is likened to a salsa like concoction but really a sweet brown sauce for fresh lumpia! I was a very happy customer that I ordered the kare kare (their best seller) to take home. read more

It is so hard for me to submit this review because I want nothing more to support small, family owned businesses. We arrived and we were quickly accommodated without a reservation and I am so thankful for that. Two tables were seated after us and we waited for 20 minutes (maybe more) to put in our order and only after I walked up to the employees and asked them to take our order. We kept waiting and waiting for the food and the lechon rice and steak plate finally arrived. We finished those two plates, but we were still expecting two other plates. We waited around 30 minutes before I finally asked about the other two plates, and the employee said they were working on it. Then, another employee came to check on us, asking if we had gotten everything, and I told her we were still waiting for the two main courses, and she looked surprised. What really disappointed me was the attention that the other tables were getting. The two tables that arrived after us got all of their food before us. They even left when we were still eating our final two plates. It was overall a very very disappointing experience. The amount of waiting we did and having to ask to be helped was disappointing when other tables were constantly checked on. It would have been nice also to get our soda's comped as well! But barely any apology was given. SO SAD. read more

Update: We finally made it back, this time for breakfast, and I just had to update my review because it was every bit as good as our first visit! We ordered the tocilog and adobo ribs. We also got an extra plate of the tortang talong with crab because we had to try it. My husband said their tocino is now one of his favorites, and that's saying a lot because he almost always orders tocilog whenever we go out for Filipino breakfast. I also loved the garlic rice. It was nicely seasoned and not greasy. I was so happy that their adobo wasn't sweet. It tasted like the adobo I grew up with. It would've been a perfect 10 if the meat had been just a little more tender, the kind that falls off the bone, but the flavor was delicious. Our favorite was the tortang talong with crab. It was cooked perfectly and was absolutely delicious. The combination of the eggplant and crab was amazing! We also had the chance to chat with EJ, who gave us excellent service. During our first visit we wanted to try the turon, but it was sold out. When he told us they had it that morning, how could we resist? It's never too early for dessert, right? I'm so glad we ordered it. It was incredible. The delicate, flaky layers and the explosion of flavors made it a perfect 10. I used to bake, so I can appreciate how much work goes into making something like that. Before we left, we loved everything so much that we ordered the longanisa and bangus to go so we could try those too. We'll definitely be back, and next time we're bringing the rest of our crew. I also want to applaud the staff. Both times we've visited, the service has been warm, friendly, and outstanding. read more

We had a great weekend lunch with our family here. The lumpia and tortang talong were my faves. I also enjoyed the kare kare although it doesn't have a strong peanut flavor which is probably why I liked it. I thought the interior is bright and welcoming. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

Inda + Mely is a really fun modern take on Filipino cuisine, and I appreciate what they're doing with the menu. It feels like a thoughtful way to introduce Filipino flavors to a broader audience while still keeping the heart of the dishes recognizable. We came around 5 PM on a Friday and were surprisingly the only ones there for the entire hour we stayed, which made for a quiet, relaxed dinner. The space itself is very cute and cozy, with a warm atmosphere that feels inviting for a casual date night or dinner with friends. Parking is something to keep in mind. They have a very small lot on the side of the building with maybe 4 spots total, so I can imagine parking could be tricky during busier hours if those fill up. I was genuinely excited by the menu because there were so many creative options that sounded amazing. We ordered the kilaw lamang dagat, garlic butter sugpo, bistek tagalog, sisig carbonara, and mango sticky rice. Kilaw lamang dagat - Think Filipino-style ceviche. This was one of my favorites of the night. The seafood tasted fresh, and the coconut milk and lemongrass really came through beautifully without overpowering the dish. Super refreshing and well balanced. Garlic butter sugpo - Came with 5 large prawns that were cooked really well, tender and not overdone at all. The garlic butter sauce was rich and flavorful, though it leaned a bit saltier than I personally prefer. Still a solid dish. Bistek tagalog - Easily our favorite of everything we ordered. The beef was cooked beautifully, tender and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and satisfying. It came with fries, which honestly deserve their own mention because they were insanely crispy. We kept talking about how good the fries were long after dinner. Sisig carbonara - I know this seems to be one of their more popular dishes, but this one just wasn't for me. The portion is huge, so definitely shareable, but personally I didn't think the creamy pasta paired that well with the sisig flavors. Not a bad dish, just not something I'd order again. Mango sticky rice - A nice way to end the meal. Classic and comforting, though they add chocolate syrup on top, which made it sweeter than I expected. If you have a strong sweet tooth, you'll probably love it. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience and love seeing Filipino food presented in a fresh, modern way. Not every dish was a hit for me, but the creativity, atmosphere, and standout dishes definitely make this worth trying. read more

The food was good, but minus one star due to limited options for people seeking a diet low in saturated fats. The menu descriptions don't show the cooking methods. So if you are not familiar with Filipino food, you can unknowingly order foods that are deep fried or sopping with oil. Although they do have photographs, it's hard to tell the cooking method from the pictures. For example, they have an Okoy Salad listed as "shrimp + green papaya + rice powder". This is their only salad listing. We ordered it and were surprised to find that it was shrimp with deep fried items on a bed of greens. Another example was the Chili Garlic Chicken, listed as "annatto + peanuts + Chili + Aromatics". It was chicken that was breaded and appeared to be wok fried. Aside from the unhealthiness of the oil, the food was good. The Bistek Tagalog is slices of ribeye, served with French fries. Also good was the garlic fried rice, which comes in a very large bowl which easily serves four people. We visited on a Sunday around 7:30pm and were seated quickly. The servers were very friendly. The restaurant has their own parking lot. read more

Inda + Mely serves a contemporary, creative take on Filipino cuisine in a small, modernly-decorated restaurant space in San Bruno. For someone less familiar with Filipino food, much of the menu is almost unrecognizable, but the friendly staff was helpful with recommendations. To start, the Okoy Salad was a bed of greens topped with a crispy "bird's nest" fritter made of shredded papaya/carrots and a whole shrimp, fried in a rice powder batter, served with a vinegar dressing on the side. One of my favorite dishes was the Cebuchon Sinigang. Sinigang is typically a sour meat and vegetable soup, but Inda + Mely's "deconstructed" version came with crispy cebuchon pork belly served with sautéed vegetables (green beans, eggplant, okra, tomatoes, potatoes) and an acidic mango tamarind sauce. The best part of this dish was the chunks of pork belly, which had a nice balance of lean meat, fat, and crispy skin. Continuing on, the Laing was taro greens stewed with coconut milk and dried fish, topped with slices of pork shoulder; and the Sisig Carbonara was spaghetti in a heavy cream sauce, topped with crispy bits of chicharron and lechon (pork skin and belly). Both of these dishes were rather heavy but extremely flavorful. Finally, another highlight dish was the Kare-Kare, a stew of super tender oxtail, brisket, and tripe in a curry-like spiced peanut sauce, served with green beans, eggplant, and Shanghai bok choy. The best part was the unctuous, mildly spiced peanut sauce, which went perfectly with a side of beautifully yellow-tinged Garlic Fried Rice. Overall, the food here was delicious, creative, and beautifully-presented in a clean, modern setting with friendly service. read more

We needed a hearty meal after picking up folks at SFO. This was near the airport and very convenient. There's a parking lot next to the restaurant with room for about 6 cars. Very friendly and attentive staff. The owner Raquel was there to assist us and she was friendly. We asked about the history of the restaurant, as the walls have photos of the family history. Food is very tasty, my favorite is the laing. The lechon with the pinakbet is really tasty. We were also pleasantly surprised with the Turon Baklava. If we're in the area, will definitely return. read more

We were hugely disappointed with our Sunday lunch experience here. The interior of the resto is warm and clean, the lady server was friendly however it's the food quality that sadly let us down. We ordered Kare-Kare ($37): bland and tasteless, helped slightly with a dash of shrimp paste (bagoong). The single piece of oxtail was tough as was the green bean topping. The sauce is FAR from the great kare-kare we've grown to love. The other big disappointment is the Pakbet con Lechon ($24). Both its pumpkin and okra were tough/hard to eat. The skin of the liempo was crispy at best but we really couldn't enjoy the meal with the sorry state of the veggies. Their longanisa spring roll ($20) has a crispy rice paper texture but the longanisa was a bit undercooked. Great tasting sauce though! The owner was focused solely on entertaining 1 table only and didn't bother checking/ touching base with the rest of the customers (4 out of 12 tables were occupied) There's a lot of better-tasting Filipino restaurants in the area that I'll return to. Some have faster service than the others. Not sure if this is a one-time off-day here but this first dining experience here will be our last. read more

The food was fantastic! Had a flavor twist with the sisig & sinagang. The sinagang came with a bone marrow & it was great! The garlic rice was delicious as well & we end it with Turon Baklava with ice cream. Very flavorful & tasty with the banana chips, biscoff bits & pistachio. Definitely would come back here again. Service was fast but that's because we went on a Friday lunch so there wasn't much people but it was nice. The interior designs are very instagramable. I like the bamboo chairs & wall arts. read more

First and foremost, the Cebuchon Sinigang is truly out of the norm--an original, never-before-seen dish that brilliantly blends Cebuchon with traditional Sinigang. Instead of the usual broth, it features a tangy, slightly sweet, tomato-based purée. It looked amazing and tasted even better. The flavors worked exceptionally well and were a very pleasant surprise. If recipes could be patented, this one definitely should be. The Beef Kaldereta was also excellent. It stayed close to the traditional version but was elevated by the addition of a Bleu potato purée at the bottom, which made the dish stand out. We originally ordered the Seafood Kaldereta but received the Beef instead. While that was a small service hiccup, we accepted it--and ended up really enjoying the dish--so it became an acceptable mistake. The restaurant itself had great décor and thoughtful table arrangements that elevated the overall experience. While the building looked older, it didn't feel run-down at all; everything was clean and appeared newly renovated. Parking can be a bit challenging due to the small lot, so street parking may be necessary. Overall, it was a great experience, and we will definitely be coming back. read more

WE had such a great experience at Inda & Mely. The food was honestly delicious, with a really unique Asian fusion twist that made everything feel a little different (in a good way). Every dish we tried had so much flavor and creativity behind it. The place itself is beautifully decorated--warm, inviting, and just a really nice space to relax and enjoy a meal. You can tell a lot of thought went into the ambiance. We were also pleasantly surprised with complimentary desserts and spring rolls, which were both so good and a perfect way to end the meal. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience with great food, a welcoming vibe, and thoughtful touches that made it even more special. Service was great too! Definitely worth checking out! read more

Came here on a Wednesday evening g~6:30p and were seated right away. This is a small family business and it's decorated very cute with lots of green. The ladies were all so friendly, patiently answering my questions about their cuisine and dishes. I don't eat a lot of Filipino food, so this is all new and exciting for me. We ordered the garlic rice, cebuchon sinigang, and kare kare -- all of which were really yummy. The pork with the mango sinigang sauce was so tender and the beef kare kare was great too. The ladies checked in on us and shared the family history behind the dishes. You could tell they really cared and wanted you to feel their sense of home. All of this for 75 (pre tip) and enough for two for the next day! Great sizes. read more

4.5 STARS Ok, San Bruno.... I see you! The City has Abacá. The Town has FOB Kitchen. Lafayette has Tropa (on my list to try). Even Wine Country has Carabao. And, now there's Inda + Mely. The northern peninsula has some of the best Filipino food so it's about time there's a Modern Filipino Resto. (Although Avenida in San Mateo advertises as Modern Filipino, IMO I don't think they are). Opening in early October 2025, Inda + Mely (owners' names) took over Tastebuds (lechon). Open for lunch and dinner on the weekdays + breakfast, lunch, and dinner on weekends. Rezzies accepted (via phone). M E N U Elevated, modern Filipino cuisine. Creative dishes like okoy (fritter) salad, chicken adobo pâté, sisig carbonara, sizzling bulalo (beef bone marrow), turon baklava, and much more. Liquor license pending? F O O D * Open Face Lumpia w/ ground pork, mixed veggies, fried pastry ($24): https://tinyurl.com/3dfbpjpn I thought this would be deconstructed lumpia with the fried wrapper as a vessel. However, this is a hybrid of fresh lumpia (soft crêpe-like wrapper) with a ground pork and veggie filling, layered with a crispy lumpia wrapper. Garnished with mixed greens, tomato, and cucumbers. Nice textures but hella salty and messy to eat. Least fav item and quite pricey. * Sugpo con Mayonesa w/ house mayo, crab fat, chili (5 pc-$23.98): https://tinyurl.com/56wc4kf2 Giant, tender prawns coated in a deliciously rich, umami crab fat sauce (not spicy). Don't forget to suck 'em heads. * Cebuchon Sinigang: Cebuchon Belly Roll w/ sautéed veggies, mango tamarind ($25): https://tinyurl.com/3dakxzcy Great plating! Not your Lola's soupy sinigang, this modern rendition showcases "cebu-style" lechon (more like lechon kawali), satisfyingly crunchy, and tender pork belly alongside a very mild tamarind sauce. Served with tender eggplant, kamote (?), green beans, radish, and tomatoes. IMO, the sour flavor needs to be dialed up several notches to achieve the flavor of sinigang (tamarind soup). * Lengua Sisig w/ ox tongue, special sauce, chicharrón ($30): https://tinyurl.com/ck6maenw Modern take on a beloved classic, diced lengua, meltingly tender with crispy edges coated in a creamy sauce. The crushed chicharrón topping provided a great crunchy contrast. Rich, beefy deliciousness. Very steep pricing for the small portion tho. * Garlic Rice ($9.98) Savory with a mild garlic flavor. S E R V I C E Incredibly warm, welcoming Pinoy hospitality. Not busy at the time so prompt food service. A M B I A N C E Classy dining room with modern touches. Love their "Kumain ka na ba?" (Have you eaten yet?) IG sign....it's the Filipino way of asking, "How are you?". There's about 12 tables. P A R K I N G Limited parking in their lot with 7-8 spaces. Very hard street parking. Overall, Inda + Mely is serving delicious and unique Modern Filipino dishes. I found their pricing ambitious for the area but nonetheless, a welcoming addition to San Bruno. With their creative and innovative twists to Filipino classics that can't be found anywhere in the bay, I think they'll be a destination for the Fil-Am community. read more

This place is so cute and trendy! The food was absolutely amazing! It's the Filipino flavors of home with a modern twist. All of our orders came to the table in a timely manner. We ordered the following: 1) Deconstructed lumpia - more difficult to eat than the classic lumpia but the flavors were so bomb that it was worth the effort. 2) Patatim - reminiscent of paksiw na pata but with mushrooms. The meat just melts in your mouth! 3) Bistek tagalog - their take on steak and fries, but better. 4) Kaldaretang baka with bleu cheese mash - classic kaldareta flavors on a bed of mash potatoes. We were a little unsure about the bleu cheese part, so our waiter offered that it can come on the side. We tried it with the dish and while it was good and added a tang, bleu cheese is just not for me so I'm glad we got it on the side! The meat was cooked perfectly - still a little pink on the inside so it wasn't chewy or overdone at all. 5) For dessert, we got the buko pandan which my mom absolutely loved. Owner (I think) and ancestor of Inda, Raquel, came out to greet us and ask how everything was. She was so kind and glad we had enjoyed the flavors. She even boxed up our leftover for us! Food gets a solid 5 stars - I would give more if I could! For atmosphere, I give it a 4 as it was a hot day I don't think the place has AC, so it was really warm in there. For service, I also give it a 4 because although our waiter was super friendly, kind, and very helpful, I felt that he could have checked in more. For cost, I feel that everything was priced fairly. It's just a little more expensive than your "regular" Filipino restaurant. Overall, I would recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be back! read more

Inda Mely restaurant is bad, and not worth your money! There's only one server and it take too long. We're only 5 people and there was an automatic 20% charge for large party plus 3% credit card charge. The food was not exceptional, typical Filipino dish. I'm not going back to eat in this restaurant anymore. read more

This is by far our favorite Filipino restaurant! The food is consistently delicious, the place is nice and bright, and it has a slightly fancy feel while still being very comfortable. The prices are reasonable, and the staff are always friendly and accommodating. It's the kind of place that feels like home and tastes like home, which is exactly why we keep coming back. The Sisig Carbonara and Beef Salpicao are our favorite dishes--you won't regret ordering them! The Bistek was really good as well. So far, it's always our number one choice when it comes to Filipino restaurants. Highly recommended! read more

Went for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and immediately loved the vibe. The space has a strong Filipino influence with a fresh, modern feel--and everything was spotless, which I always appreciate. Since it was just the two of us, we kept our order small, but every dish delivered. The menu features classic Filipino favorites with creative updates, along with fusion options. The carbonara was my standout--it was absolutely delicious. We also tried the shrimp and the pompano, both of which were well-prepared and flavorful. For dessert, we had the mango sticky rice, which was the perfect sweet finish. Great service, quality food, and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. Definitely a 5 out of 5 for me. read more

Cute interior, interesting menu, but execution fell short. Bistek Tagalog was labeled ribeye but way too tough. Fries took up half the plate--crunchy with mayo, nothing special. Cebuchon with the wrong buro was better but still just okay. Smoked fish rice tasted more like plain garlic rice. All in: $96. Strong aesthetics, mid flavors, value didn't quite deliver. read more

Love this new Filipino restaurant. The pork sinigang was good but I would have loved it even more If there were more sabaw and more watery. The kare kare was good but the tripe was overcooked. The Pampano was my favorite but instead of the butter sauce I'd ask for vinegar sauce next time. The Pork sisig, pandan and mango sticky rice was perfect. Owner, Raquel even stopped by at our table to ask how we're doing and stayed and chit chat for a bit. I can't wait to try the other foods on the menu and bring my other families and friends. read more

Inda & Mely is the kind of restaurant that reminds you why food matters. The moment you sit down, it feels less like dining out and more like being welcomed into someone's home--a space where the story behind the dishes is just as meaningful as the flavors on the plate. Their menu blends Filipino tradition with thoughtful, modern fusion in a way that never feels forced. Classic flavors like lumpia, lechon, and coconut milk sit comfortably next to creative twists that highlight the depth of Philippine cuisine. Every dish tastes like it was made by someone who grew up with these recipes, understands their roots, and knows exactly how to elevate them without losing their soul. There's a warmth here that's rare. The energy of family cooking is woven through the experience--big flavors, comforting textures, dishes meant to be shared, and that unmistakable feeling of being cared for. You taste heritage, innovation, and home all at once. read more

We had a party of 7 on Sunday on 7-12-26 at 12 noon. We ordered dishes to share. I ordered #28 beef tenderloin salpicao was $35 and my gf ordered #17 Stu's sisig $23. The first thing that our matriarch said as the dishes came out was "they sure don't give very much". My gf's dish was very similar to one we ordered at an event from a Filipino vendor and it was free too! That one was a lot tastier and was made with corn beef hash. and was free! This one was mixed with too much goulash, she hardly touched it mixture of so much c--p made it unappetizing. The only saving Grace was the sunnyside egg on top was the only thing she liked about that dish. Mine's was saturated with too much sauce. Every time someone passed the dish around the sauce would overflow and spill ontobour hands and all over the table. The fried milkfish #11 was $23.98 tasted bland too. . Was nothing to wow about. Never once did our server stop by to ask us if everything was okay and if we needed anything else. The dishes were too overpriced. To be a swanky Asian fusion restaurant as this place is, the dining experience was destroyed with the lack of attention from the server. This killed the entire ambiance for us. The portions are too small, in fact, I had to scrounge and scrimp tiny slices of meat, slicing up a small chunk of meat so 6 others can get some. One of our guests weighs 400 lbs so he ate the entire chunk without sharing it with the rest of us (rude). Will not be returning. I'm sure there are plenty of Filipino fusion establishments that have reasonable prices which this place does not, better attentive service, and tastier food. This was real disappointment and the others in our party expressed the same sentiment. read more

This is by far the best Filipino restaurant we've been to. The food is excellent, authentic Filipino flavors with a creative twist. (Thank you for using string beans. I've noticed many places substitute green beans instead, so I really appreciated the authenticity.) Even the space reflects that concept, with a modern, fancy Filipino-inspired design. The owner personally came over to introduce herself and share a bit about the restaurant and its dishes, which we really appreciated. Our server, John, was also wonderful and friendly, knowledgeable, and great at giving solid recommendations. I always enjoy dining more when the staff truly knows the menu. I absolutely loved the menu, especially that it includes photos of the dishes. While I'm familiar with Filipino food, the unique twists made everything feel elevated and special. The prices are absolutely worth it for the quality and experience. read more

What a fun-tastic luncheon celebration we had for my son's graduation party! We had about 40-50 family and friends who came over. This is a perfect place for any occasion. The food is great and one of a kind menu. We ordered 10 dishes on a catering style. The open face lumpia was the most loved. It stayed crispy all throughout. We had my favorite authentic Kare-Kare. Other outstanding dishes are Sisig Carbonara, Chicken Inasal, Cebuchon , Sugpo in Alavar(Jumbo shrimp), Salpicao and Kaldereta. They were all very tasty and the meats were tender. We never missed to try the desserts - their big serving Halo-Halo and Turon ala Baklava. I can't say enough about the service and staff. They were very attentive. They decorated one spot with balloon theme color of USF ( where my son graduated from). Raquel, the owner is amazing. She is personally involved in the operations and goes out of her way to cater on the specific preference of every guest or group. While the ambience is conducive, modernly renovated and has good vibes, it was a bonus to have an entertainer who played that day. His name is Prince Leviticus. I highly recommend this place either on a regular dine in from breakfast to dinner or celebrating special occasions, and setting a group or family. event. read more

It was this or ramen. In short best decision my wife and I made this week. Different take on Filipino food I've tried. The flavors are super comforting almost like homemade. The chorizo dynamite was bomb (no pun intended). Not sure of the pepper i would guess a Serrano pepper that is stuffed. It was wrapped and served like a lumpia. We order Cebuchon Belly, Salpicao, and the Kare-Kare as our meal. If I had to choose, my favorite is the Salpicao. Great portions as well. Worth it to me. My wife was the Kare-Kare and the bagoong it came with. We didn't ask but I swear they made the bagoong themselves or tweaked it because that was good by itself. I know we'll be there next week to try the other items. I'm sure I'll update this if I find a better favorite. read more

My first time dining at Inda + Mely was for my nephew's graduation celebration, and it was such a wonderful experience. I immediately loved the restaurant's interior décor, especially the wall display that said, "kumain ka na ba?" -- it gave the place a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The buffet was beautifully set up for the party, which gave me the chance to sample a variety of Filipino dishes. I especially loved the presentation of their layered lumpia, and the cebuchon sinigang was incredibly unique and absolutely delicious. They also served turon baklava and halo-halo, which were both amazing treats to end the meal. I also appreciated how hands-on the owner was in serving and making sure everyone had a great experience. The excellent service made the celebration even more memorable. I'm already looking forward to coming back again to try more of their authentic Filipino dishes. Many thanks to the team for such a fantastic dining experience! read more
