Hands down, the best Shanghai lumpia I've ever had--no contest. I ordered from the catering menu online for a work event, and the entire experience was seamless from start to finish. Easy, convenient, and perfectly priced for the generous quantity--exactly what I needed. But the real star? The lumpia. It stole the show. People kept coming up to me asking, "Where did you get this?" and "Who brought it?" Safe to say, I had the standout dish of the day. Irma's didn't just deliver food--they delivered a hit. I have a feeling my department will be placing plenty more orders in the future! read more

Soooo yummy. Very affordable, great flavor, super fast, and great service. Lots of seating. I was so excited to see calamansi juice!! It was just as great as I hoped. I will be coming back here for sure to try the sisig, adobo, and other options read more

Dinuguan is watery, should be thick like gravy, no peppers, manage to have dry meat parts despite the fact its simmered in sauce. Pancit is vegetarian, lacking taste. Lumpia looks like it was in a turo turo pan, reheated in old oil. If you had filipino food b4, this does not taste like it. If you wanted to try the 1st time, this is not the place. I used to work at Thriftown and came here almost daily. The vibe back then was hole in the wall but food was on point. I see they remodeled the interior, they should've focus on the quality of food. I was nostalgic, but, sadly, gun shy to try again. There's a place near 24th n Mission, Kusina ni Tess, Turo cafe you can try. Nakakahiya na ito ay filipino pagkain. read more

Always a great pleasure visiting Irma's, the food is always on point the service is very welcoming. You can't go wrong with the options here, everything looks delicious and the price is very reasonable. I try to go here before noon to beat the morning foot traffic on the BART and streets. But I always leave here with a cantaloupe drink and a bag of small lumpia's. read more

Maybe I just ordered wrong last time because I recently ordered some food from Irma's and it hits. The chicken adobo rice plate was good. Not too salty either which is good because Filipino food can be a tad salty sometimes. Lumpia Shanghai was yummy and maybe because of the condensation due to delivery, it wasn't as crunchy as I like. BUT I like their price point. $55 for 100 pieces of Lumpia Shanghai! STFD! So guess what I did?! I got a party tray of these for a work potluck. It did cost extra to get it DoorDash to me, but I don't have time to pick up stuff all over town on a work day. Especially multiple trays of goodies from different places. If you do, then this is even a better deal! The LS came in an aluminum tray. Perfectly crispy and yummy. They were a HIT! And gone when you blinked twice! Located on 16th St and S.

The Mission Revisited Edition: On 16th street in the neighborhood I grew up in there are all kinds of food. There are a diverse amount of restaurants from many different countries. One place on 16th street and South Van Ness has been serving food of the Philippines in San Francisco for over a decade since the 1990's . This is the true original places to grab Filipino food in the Mission and offers lots different dishes. Inside Irma's Pampanga Restaurant on 16th street you will see a few tables. The layout to order food feels like a cafeteria/ buffet with different items to choose . You will see BBQ skewers , Sisig, and other dishes of the Philippines. I had the pork and the chicken adobo. The pork was delicious and tender. The chicken was moist and well marinated. The sauce was savory and blended well with the garlic rice to give it great flavor. I also had the Shanghai Lumpia which was a little crispy but scrumptious. This place keeps it consistent. The area in the Mission District is diverse but the majority of cafes and restaurants are"Latino" they have many different types of cafes in the Mission that serves espresso, lattes, and "cappuccino "and one of restaurants which has good food is Irma's which serves food that is "Filipino" with dishes with pancit, garlic rice , and" tocino" On 16th street in the Mission is where I spent my "teens " walking by past the street "fiends " where I enjoyed eating at different types of restaurant "cuisines" and enjoyed going to Irma's Pampanga serving the flavors of the "Philippines" read more

This place is a true hole in the wall and it was delicious. It's totally no frills, but they have pictures of the different foods and a little setup so you can see what you're choosing. The food was delicious and very inexpensive. There were some places to sit and it wasn't too far from the BART. I don't remember what i ordered, but i absolutely devoured it. felt authentic! read more

Service is kind and quick. Got the 2 entree item + lumpia. The pompano sinigang was good, light on flavor. Wish it was just hotter in temperature though. Dinuguan was good but kind of sweet, we prefer more vinegar-ish tasting. Adobo was soft and tender but also was on the sweet side. Pork sisig was good, always a good option. Lumpia was good but kind of felt heavy on oil. read more

Irma's Pampanga Restaurant - Filipino Near Me - San Francisco, California

Delicious Filipino comfort food served cafeteria-style. The staff were so warm and welcoming, especially the lady who helped me! If you order the combo plate, just fyi they do not skimp on rice! (Always have to ask for less rice because they pile them like it's free) Everything tasted homemade, esp the adobo, but sometimes the lady will recommend new dish for you to try, and the best part is the lumpia! seriously to die for. read more

We order here quite often for hospital parties coz it's near our work. and this time just looking at It I knew there's something wrong, it looks like it was re fried...it's super oily and looked burnt. I ordered this from doordash, I called the store and complained and what they wanted me to do is to bring the food to the store and they will replaced or refund it. I said there's a reason why i ordered thru doordash because I cannot leave. the lady then suggested to bring it after my work. There's no point of arguing coz clearly the lady is not getting. we are long time customer of this store, we got bad lumpia and terrible customer service. Will not order here anymore read more

I was craving Filipino food and decided to try Irma's with the help of DoorDash. I got the Adobosilog because I love adobo. It was tasty but you need to be careful of the little pieces of shattered chicken bones. The meal was a great deal and arrived quickly. read more

Ordered lunch through door dash! They were really quick on this order, which is probably why I'm not too happy about big chunks of pancit being too hard to eat. The pancit has good flavor but it's giving day old vibes. Got a feeling it's not fresh today. Lumpia's are delicious! Crispy , hot and fresh. Was hoping for sweet chili sauce but received sweet and sour instead. Not too big of an issue. The bbq chicken on a stick is my favorite! Just wished it wasn't colder than everything else on the plate. read more

I ordered turon for an office party, and decided to order food for dinner. Big mistake. Horrible customer service. The prices are no where to be found, except in font size 4 posted way up on the wall, for the combos only. I proceeded to order pork adobo, but was asked if I wanted chicken also. So she topped it off with a bunch of barely meat, skin-on chicken legs. I then ordered moongo, and pancit palabok. She started to box up the other pancit (miki-bihon). I don't know why, but when I told her I wanted palabok, the attitude given to me was as if I I stepped on her LV Speedy inside the church pew, so I said, "it's okay," and kept the entire order. When it was time to pay? The line items read $40, and $13. Not sure how it was calculated, but each pancit box was very light in weight. NO LOVE. Brought it all home, and maaaaaan. I asked my hubby to wrap it all up, because we're giving it to a homeless person. Nothing tasted how it was supposed to taste. No shrimp in the moongo. No meat in either of the pancits, except one piece of whatever meat they threw in there. Adobo sweet and thick sauce. Awful. Rude. Just nasty! Never again! read more

Good, fair price. Love eating here because it reminds me of home. Lots of different food offerings - so much to try read more

Definitely for the filipinos INTO dishes that aren't as Americanized. I wasn't a big fan of their lumpia, which is usually a hit for me. While the service was fast and the interior seemed generally clean (with a slight exception of the restrooms), the prices were a little pricy, but definitely worth it depending on your "filipino palate". read more

Food is mid. Pancit had NO flavor, BBQ chicken skewer was a little dry and the lumpia is small but good. They give SWEET AND SOUR PACKET with the food no vinegar. Probably wouldnt try again read more

Food is really good there, great prices as well. Only thing bad about this place is they are very unfriendly. I try to smile and compliment them while I order but I can't get a smile, a hello or a thank you out of them. Makes it a little awkward. I get they work around a lot of dope fiends , and quite a few characters, but normal people do go in there and should be treated a little bit better when they are supporting their business and spending money there. read more

If you don't want the hassle of traveling to Daly City or even the Excelsior District for your lumpia-fix, then Irma's on 16th St & S. Van Ness is the place to go. It's laidback ambiance provides a relaxing dining experience from the hustle just outside its door. The lovely titas lay out a delicious spread of your favorite Filipino dishes for your choosing. Everything from the aforementioned lumpias to classic pork adobo, savory pancit and even the "chocolate stew" dinuguan is offered. Service is a snap! Simply point to what you'd like and it's immediately portioned out in more than you'd expect. Definitely a bang for the buck! Situated in the heart of the bustling Mission, Irma's is conveniently close to both the 14 Mission and 22 Fillmore as well as the 16th St Bart Station. To sum it up: Easy access and Filipino food that your Mama would approve! read more

Made a catering order to feed 70 of my employees. Food was good. I felt like they could've filled up the pan more with the garlic rice and an additional sauce was needed for the 200 pieces is lampia that I ordered. Good food and price just wish they would be more giving and less frugal read more

I rarely write reviews, but this needed to be said. The food was good. But the customer service was trash. I walked in with my smile as I always do. It was met with a very no so welcoming face. The lady behind the counter was scowling at me as if i robbed her the day before. She wasn't very friendly at all. Food: the food was good. Even though the hostess was rude, the chef is doin her thing in that kitchen. Then i ordered today and they sent the wrong darn order. Ugh! read more

Went to a party that was catered by this place. Everything was so delicious. Was told by host that this is best place for meals.

There aren't a ton of good Filipino food in San Francisco, in my view, so i'm glad there's Irma's. Servings are a good portion and it's really delicious and tastes authentic. read more

Food is not edible. Food poisoning happened to me! I would never come back here. It is so disgusting.

Service at this place is Terrible. I don't know if she was in a bad mood, but she was extremely rude and didn't want to answer my question when asked for pricing on some of the food on the steam table. Came here for their Turron, which is very good. But Won't be coming back, due to the lack of customer service. I rather drive to Daly City to get my turron and lumpia fix. read more

Great assortment of Filipino dishes that range from main items (such as fried whole fishes, meat skewers, quarter pieces of chicken, salmon, pork chops, etc.) to side dishes, beverages and deserts. It's a great place to try dishes you heard of and definitely a good introduction to Filipino cuisine. Portions are ample. You can do combos that come with two huge ice cream scoops of steamed white rice. Their foot long fried bananas are delicious. read more

4.5 for sure. The food is VERY flavorful and authentic. I ordered the bbq chicken skewer, pork adobo, and sweet pork over rice. Whatever you do, get extra sauce over your rice, It's bomb!! Every bite was on point. I've only eaten half, but am close to a food coma haha. Plenty good portions. On a side note, I would love if the calamansi juice they offer wasn't as cut with as much ice/water as it was. More potent would have been perfect. read more

I ordered Irmas on Doordash. Ordering was simple, and they have a catering option for a small selection of 100-piece lumpia and small or large party platter size pancit. We ordered for pickup to be dropped off around 10-10:20am. I was a bit nervous as my door dasher went to pick up around 9:50 and they were cooking my order still, but it came just in time! The food was delicious! The size small pancit platter fed around 25-30 people and we still had at least one serving full leftover. Both pancit and lumpia came steaming hot and ready to eat and was delicious! Lumpia was crispy. Came with dipping sauce enough for 100. There isn't a lot of catering options for Filipino food on doordash, and I am grateful to have Irma's Pampanga Restaurant as an option! read more

20 years ago they took pride in their food, I went today and ordered chicken and pork adobo. Didn't taste anything like it used to be, it's like they have given up on cooking great food. When Irma took pride in it, the ladies tried giving me mostly bone in the chicken adobo and the pork was over cooked and sloppy. That's not filipino food.. read more

Stumbled upon this filipino restaurant while in the Mission with my friends. I got a 1 item combo. I'm not too sure what the entree item I got was called, but it was coconutty and delicious! My friends got silogs and sisig which were very good as well. There was a decent amount of seating inside, and lots of entree dishes to choose from. The only thing that wasn't great about my experience here was they had mentioned my dish was jackfruit.. so to clarify, I asked "there's no meat in there? its jackfruit?" which they replied looked at each other, paused and said "no... there's meat too". Unfortunately, there was no meat in the dish (meaning pork or something of that sort) which I was extremely disappointed with. The sauce and flavoring was overall great but I thought it was meat and it was not. Didn't want that to ruin my review or rating, as the dish was still good and everyone else's food was good too! read more

My former coworkers used to order catering from here for our potlucks and lunches. The store is at a not so good location. The store gives an old run down vibe. However, the staff working there is efficient and straight to the point. They take card but prefer cash. Lumpia is always a crowd pleasure. $17.50 for 50 pieces. Win! read more

Ok so this spot looks basic and is easy to walk past, but tbh, the places with the best food usually aren't flashy. This place is one of those. It has a diner like set up and those classic Filipino dishes taste like they're homemade. The pork Tocino with garlic rice and eggs is my Filipino go to dish and this did not disappoint. The meat was sweet and savory, packed with flavor and the rice had crispy garlic fried into it and was dripping with the Tocino meat juice. I loved it, and it was a very reasonable price, after tax and tip like 11 bucks! read more

Ordered ahead for an office potluck -- Irma's delivered. The lumpia was crispy and packed with flavor, the garlic rice was perfect, and the vegetable egg rolls were fresh and well-seasoned. Everything tasted homemade. Portions were solid and the price was more than fair. Definitely using them again for future events. read more

If I can rate this place zero I would!!! I rarely write reviews, but this experience was unacceptable. I placed an order through Uber Eats AND called the restaurant twice to confirm a specific item. A woman took my calls both times and assured me the order would be correct. Spoiler: it wasn't. Instead of the item I clearly requested, they substituted a cheaper meat without any notice or explanation. When I called to clarify, the owner not only denied that anyone spoke to me (even though a woman answered twice!) -- he also yelled at me and blamed me for their mistake. Completely unprofessional and disrespectful. If you value accuracy, honesty, or basic customer service, skip this place. I gave every opportunity for this to go smoothly, and they still dropped the ball -- then yelled at me for it. Unbelievable. This place sucks!!! read more

Irma's is a solid spot for classic Filipino dishes. They have a wide selection of dishes for you to try - Lumpia, Chicken Adobo, Kare Kare, etc. It seems they also change up their menu every now and then. I tried their Chicken Adobo and Lumpia with Garlic Rice and loved how fresh and savory everything was. The adobo had a hint of sweetness, which was unique. Some cuts were mostly bone and not enough meat, however. Service is reminiscent of classic Filipino food joints - quick and straight to the point. read more

Love that this spot utilizes door dash and I was able to schedule a next day drop off for a taste of home and to be able to share with my coworkers and friends. Lumpia is always a hit at a potluck and there is so much more to enjoy. If nanay or tatay aren't able to cook for you, please go to the mission and you will thank me!! Great price for so many. Not able to take pics bc they were gone so fast. Salamat po! Will be ordering more food soon. read more
