    Big disappointment!!! I haven't been able to get filipino food for awhile due to my budget. Still really shouldn't have yet I have been very conservative lately and not bought food out for months. Craving their Dinuguan and they had Pork Kare Kare so I tried it and of course couldn't forget the pansit. Food did not have much flavor and Kare Kare had only 1piece of pork with a huge bone in it the area circled with red is the meat everything else was fat, skin or bone, 1 slice of egg plant and maybe 3 green beans, to top it off a hair in my pancit. To think I paid $35.00 for this when I really shouldn't of. I take it as my sign from God to just make my own even though it takes work. I could of had a few meals that way. For someone who used to love going here, I don't think I will do it again. At least the guy that helped me was nice.

    This Filipino restaurant is underrated. This place has been here for years. The name changed a few times, but I believe it's still the same family. The place has updated over the years to look more modern, but for the most part it still looks the same. For my 20th year wedding anniversary 5yrs ago I ordered some lechon & pompano for my kamayan and it was delicious. My favorite fish is pompano and they sell the fried big ones or the fried smaller ones at a good price. If you're worried about trying Filipino food, you should check it out because they have the food out like Panda Express and you can just point w your finger or your lips haha. We haven't gotten food this year yet, but we should be visiting soon. In 2023 we've probably ordered take out several times since we're always craving dinuguan. The pinakbet was bomb, but my only gripe was that they only gave a few pieces of meat and I wanted more bite. Staff is not always super friendly. Probably because nga English English ka me and ang asawa ko mestizo kag hindi marunong ma sagut kang Tagalog. It's okay... I get it. For the most part on a good day they are okay. Food is really good if you don't feel like cooking at home!

    After years, I thought they'd be better in cost and quantity and thought I'd pop in since I was passing through. But NOPE! I never learn! This is near $10. Just the entre. So, no, they are worse with cost to quantity. Won't go there again.

    Tucked away in a quiet strip mall, a couple doors down from a pizza parlor, you would probably never know this place existed here. And unless you're a Pinoy craving some Filipino home cooked meal, a Pinoy too busy to cook for yourself, or married to a Pinoy, you would probably never come and eat here. And no, you will not find Filipino spaghetti or Filipino fried chicken here. At least not the kind that Jollibee serves that has amassed a cult following. What you will find here is authentic Filipino cuisine. The kind of food your Lola (grandma) or Nanay (mom) made at home. But let's be honest for a sec here. We all know that out of all the Asian cuisines, Filipino food doesn't garner the attention of the masses in the way Chinese, Thai or Vietnamese cuisine does. But growing up, this is the kind of food I ate as a child. And as an adult, this is the kind of food that when eaten, gives you that warm nostalgic sense of comfort. The restaurant ambiance is casual. There's a hot table with dishes to choose from, meant to be eaten with white rice, but don't expect the dishes to be nicely labeled like Panda Express. More than likely, the dishes will be unfamiliar and might seem like they all look or taste the same. However, I guarantee that if you said adobo (chicken or pork), barbecue stick, beef steak, pancit (noodles) and caldereta, what you'll end up before you is a nice array of the classics. All of this will be served with rice and maybe if you asked, a bowl of sinigang broth (sour soup). If you're feeling adventurous, try the dinuguan (stew made with pork, blood and seasonings). Before you judge, this is actually good because there is no liver and no irony taste. I was skeptical because as a child I always shied away from this dish but now, I almost always order this dish each time. If that's not your jam, they always seem to have on hand a variety of fried dishes--whether it be fish, pork belly or pata (shank) or dilis (baby smelt fish). However, don't forget to ask for the spicy vinegar sauce. For desserts, they may have turon, biko, puto, cassava cake, or flan on any given day. And last but not least...what I really come here for is my childhood favorite called halo-halo. Halo-halo literally translates to "mix-mix" and probably what most would consider the official dessert of the Philippines. It's a cold dessert made up of sweetened red or black beans, coconut jelly, gulaman (colorful agar jelly), buko (coconut jelly), sweetened banana or jackfruit, topped with shaved ice, evaporated milk, a scoop of flan and ube ice cream. Use the tall spoon they give you and go to town mixing the ingredients in the glass. On a hot Bakersfield day, this is what you need to satisfy that sweet tooth. And trust me when I say, this is the most authentic as it comes to what you normally have in the motherland.

    Amazing food! My go to is 15 piece lumpia, sisig, and pork on the stick and pancit is really tasty.

    First time here and I enjoyed it. The Goat Kaldereta and squid was soon good. Kinda pricey but worth it. The customer service is awesome. 5 STARS. Highly recommended.

    Are they open? Nobody answers when I call. Im coming from Bodfish so I need to make sure theyre open.

    No. They have been closed, unfortunately. I feel your pain. They are my goto flip food.

    Is this the only Filipino restaurant in Bakersfield?

    There was a sort of store and prepared food counter on California Ave but I think they also closed or went out of business recently.

We placed a large order at 11:15am for the 10pc chicken joy, the glass tumbler, Yum burger with cheese snack pack, spaghetti family pack, and some sides including mashed potatoes, rices, and coleslaw. They had a promotion running if you spend $35, then you get a free chicken sandwich too. About ten minutes after placing the order, our food was ready. There was a small mix up because I thought I said to go, but it was rang in as dine in (I'm really not sure if this was my error, or the cashier's error), but when the food was ready it was on a tray. I asked if we can have it bagged up for take out and Iris was very sweet and kind about it. It was really refreshing to see someone not get upset or defensive about extra work a little mistake caused. I really appreciated the customer service. When we got home, the order was accurate. Unfortunately, I was so excited about the food, it didn't even cross my mind to take a photo of the feast. I really enjoyed that the chicken skin was still crunchy, and the chicken itself was still moist. As for the spaghetti, and yumburgers - they tasted just like the other locations we've had in the Valley, SGV, and in Honolulu. It's really nice to have this option here in Bakersfield. Even the parking is plentiful. Overall - this is a great spot, and would definitely recommend coming here.

The moment you sit down and hear that first sizzle on the grill, you know you're in for more than dinner. You're about to enter a delicious little universe where time slows down, everyone leans in, and the table becomes the heart of the evening. There's something magical about cooking together at Kalbi King. One person becomes the self-appointed Grill Master, another becomes the Sauce Explorer, and someone inevitably declares themselves the Chief Lettuce Wrap Architect. Before you know it, everyone's laughing, flipping, grabbing side dishes, and building the perfect bite like a tiny edible masterpiece. And the meats--oh, the meats. High-quality, tender cuts that cook beautifully right before your eyes, caramelizing into smoky, juicy perfection. The kalbi is the undisputed star, but the pork belly, bulgogi, and marinated chicken hold their own like a talented supporting cast. Each bite feels like a round of applause in your mouth. Don't even get me started on the sides. The banchan lineup comes marching in like a whimsical parade--kimchi with personality, pickled veggies bursting with tangy charm, fluffy rice ready to join the party. Everything feels fresh, generous, and crafted with care. But the real reason Kalbi King stands out? It turns a meal into a family moment. You're not just eating--you're sharing stories, dodging smoke puffs, laughing at slightly overcooked slices, and cheering when someone nails the perfect grill timing. It's the kind of place where you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. If you're craving food that's flavorful, interactive, and memory-making, Kalbi King Korean BBQ is the crown-wearing hero your family deserves.
