Some slices of cucumber and a slice of tomato was also provided, plus a delicious dipping sauce of vinegar, soy sauce and chopped onions was included. The fish was crisply fried, everything from the fish head, the belly and tail was edible. The order of stewed pork with tamarind soup was hot, flavorful and worth a second helping. The soup had lots of vegetables like greens, green beans, eggplant, taro root, onions, tomatoes, Japanese radishes and okra. "Maraming salamat", thank you very much, Manila Fiesta.

We were looking for a lunch spot in Salem and this place looked good…read more They were busy when we stopped in, but they let us know they were a little behind and it might be a longer wait. I really appreciated how up front they were. We weren't in a rush so we had no problem waiting and it wasn't long considering they were making everything fresh. My daughter's pork adobo was fork tender. I was able to steal one bite before she devoured it. My husband also really enjoyed his chicken adobo. I went with the weekend special and was very happy I did. The bbq skewers were perfection. They were perfectly cooked and the sauce was sweet, tangy, and had a lovely bbq flavor. I also loved that each meal came with lumpia! Everyone wants lumpia. This is a family business and I so appreciated how they came and checked in with each table. This is a great option if you are hungry and looking for a filling meal made with love!

Rude attendant - got a 20% tip upfront for doing basically nothing and not even a simple thank you…read more They serve you on a whim either bone-in or boneless chicken if you order chicken adobo. I liked the boneless. When you get bone-in - it's tiny bony pieces and they don't even provide knives, I had to get one from another food truck. Got the pork adobo for the first time today because at 2 pm he was already "out of chicken" - and man oh man was that gross! Tasted greasy and of left-overs like another reviewer stated. The guy at the truck obviously doesn't want to be there and it shows. Also, the food is overpriced - it was a better deal when they first started at the BeeHive. Hate to give such a bad review but when consistency is so off and last 2 times were just very bad - I just can't eat there anymore. Recommend you try another food truck at The Yard.

Food is great…read more Service is a hit or miss. I called before they opened and they took my order, I arrived at the expected time and they looked at me like a deer in headlights. They took the slip they wrote my order on to the back and said it would be 10 more minutes, it was 30 minutes more. Just be honest next time, I would have come back another day if I knew they were super busy. The portions have also gotten smaller- I started coming in 2023 and smaller and smaller they get, like the torta talong I've tried everything on the menu and it's authentic!

Absolutely love this spot on Foster in SE Portland!…read more Chris, who has served us the last few times, is fantastic--attentive, friendly, and always brings great energy. He's a Filipino native and also a Portland DJ, which adds to the cool vibe. The lumpia could be a little less crispy, but they're still tasty. The chicken adobo? Absolutely spot on. But my favorite dish so far has to be the beef mami soup--it's packed with flavor and tastes just like homemade comfort food. The chicken adobo noodles and beef were pure heaven in every bite. The ambiance is simple but carries a nice Filipino touch. If I had one small suggestion, it'd be to turn up the heat a bit in the restaurant. Other than that, it's an awesome lunch spot!

It handful of tables inside with a nice covered patio outside. The vibes were great... until they weren't. We greeted our waiter with "Mabuhay" in which he replied, "What?" confused- it's literally painted on the wall my guy. Crazy way to start dinner. Food came out impossibly slow. The restaurant wasn't full so I'm not too sure why it took as long as it did. They didn't mention coursing it out so we assumed they did. Drinks were all on point, everyone loved the Filipino inspired cocktails. Ube Colada was the table's fave. We ordered a bunch of things: 2 Skewers of the Bistek [$12 each], 4 Skewers of BBQ Pork [$10 each]. Bistek could have used a little more lemon/citrus as Bistek is known to be a little sour but the steak was amazingly juicy and tender. BBQ Pork always hits, super good! Did the Pancit Bihon [$17], it was "okay," have had better. Sisig [$17] was good as well, like the "pork bits" different way of prepping the dish. Diniguan [$27] as my most favorite part of the meal. I was sooo impressed with how that one came out. Loved that dish so much. Such an innovative way of presenting the dish. It was pork chop (cut up) with diniguan sauce on top (not drenched) with shishito peppers. OMG mouthwatering. LOVE that dish. Vibes were high until we asked where the other dish was which was the Lechon Manok [$27]. Our waiter kind of gave us an attitude saying that it was coming & that it took a while to prep. Mind you we ordered everything at the same time. That wasn't even it. The chicken came out we were cutting it, and then he saw us kind of struggle a bit, so he took the chicken and started tearing it apart with his hands... That should have already been a red flag. He said his hand were clean. Then he comes back like literally 10 minutes later asking if we wanted a box. Bro, the chicken barely came out give us time to enjoy the chicken you tore apart. He asked if it was good & we said it was 'alright.' Cause it was. Wasn't impressed with that dish at all. He left us alone for a bit and then came back saying, "I feel like I'm not doing enough, do you guys need anything?" If you were bored, just say that. Whatever, he lost us at that point. We saw him smoking outside, so hopefully his hands were clean. The food was great, the service was whatever.

Always delivered to my home hot and their spicy jelly for dipping is just as great. Top it it off with a delicious Halo Halo for your dessert or drink and you e got a great dinner! The fruits in the Halo Halo are fresh and perfect amount of shaved ice keeps it the perfect temperature the entire time. I haven't tried any of their entrees yet because, well, because lumpia, that's why. Lol. Give this place a whirl if you're craving some great food!

We got the tapsilog as well, with a side order of red hot dogs. The tapa wasn't quite the same texture as traditional tapa. Halo halo was yummy! The star of the show are their bbq skewers (not pictured). The taste is very traditional and brings nostalgia from Filipino parties. I would come back specifically for their bbq skewers! Food is made to order so it took a while but it's fresh and warm to enjoy.

Showed up for a very late lunch at their Alberta location. Stepped up and ordered: Palabok-Rice noodles, seafood sauce, ground pork, sautéed shrimp, pork crackling, fried garlic. First, I should have added an egg for $1. This was a little more bland than traditional palabok. Noodles were also a little thicker than I like. Its good, but I do favor the more traditional palabok. Adobong Gulay-Green beans and fried tofu in a tamari and vinegar sauce. My sister had been hoping for the Kare Kare, but they were sold out, so she opted for the Adobong Gulay. I tried a bite and found it tasty. Lumpia-Good lumpia. Says it has longanisa sausage as a filling, but it wasn't the usually strong longanisa taste. Ube Bibingka-ube flavored rice cake, toasted coconut. Not as heavy as a traditional bibingka. It was fluffier (reminded me of marshmallows). And I ate every bite. Good solid filipino food cart.
