If I could give them more stars, I would. I took a trip as of today, from Riverside/Long Beach to Santa Barbara. It's 4th of July weekend, so we hit intermittent traffic all the way up. We stopped at Camarillo Outlets to try and kill time since our Air B&B is not ready until late afternoon. I looked to see if there are any Filipino food spots in the area and I found Lola Betty's. We ordered the short rib plate and the Tasilog plate and lumpia Shanghai- washed it down with Calamansi juice. Everything was delicious, 10/10. The owner came out to check on us and she was so kind, hospitable and shared some history with us on how Lola Betty's came to be. From food truck to walk up, she said that some people really preferred or hoped for a sit down restaurant. I don't have a preference. I only love the soul and passion that is poured into one's food. Love, soul and passion can be found here. The owner says, "I just really wanted a place where you can really be attentive and really take the time to cook the food the way it should be made". I can tell that she loves what she does and she thanked us for trying their food. I wanted to thank HER for feeding us! If I forgot to thank her, here it is. This place is worth a stop if you're smart. read more

Very cute mom-and-pop shop and a hidden gem in Camarillo. I've driven by it many times and never realized it was there. The pricing is fair, portions are generous, and overall the food was good. As a fellow Filipino, I would love to see a little more variety on the menu since it currently focuses on the basics. From a business standpoint, especially considering the location and customer base, I understand keeping things simple. The only dish I wasn't a huge fan of was the Tapsilog, as the meat was a bit salty for my taste. The Longsilog was much better, and I loved that they included a small puto (rice cake) with the meal. Overall, a great experience and worth a visit. read more

My girlfriend and I were craving Filipino food before doing some shopping in Camarillo, and this place completely exceeded our expectations. We ordered the Tapsilog ($15), Chicken Adobo with Pancit and Puto ($15), Shanghai ($5), and a can of Calamansi juice ($3). Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We were also offered a sample of their atchara, which paired perfectly with both the tapa and chicken adobo. It was so good that it elevated the entire meal. The customer service was warm and welcoming, reminding me of being with my own family. Everyone was friendly, and the food came out quickly despite it being a busy Sunday afternoon. We visited around 1:00 PM on a Sunday and found it to be a great time to come after the main lunch rush. There is outdoor seating behind the restaurant and in front and while the sounds of the nearby freeway were present, the atmosphere still gave us beachside vibes and made for a relaxing meal. Overall, this was a fantastic dining experience. The food, service, and hospitality were all outstanding. I highly recommend stopping by and giving this place a try. I'm already looking forward to coming back and working my way through the rest of the menu. Please support this local gem you won't be disappointed! read more

This is a great place if you want a hearty meal for a great price! The food is really good and some of the dishes have a lot of meat! I recommend getting the Chicken Adobo plate as it's one of the most worth it ones. The food takes a moderate time to make. Also, this place is more of a to-go restaurant, but there are available seating options. The ambiance is pretty chill and not crowded. Customers service was good. read more

Lola Betty's Kitchen!! Their pancit is some of the best I've ever had. I usually get the chicken or short ribs, and both are always delicious. The Lumpia Shanghai is always on point too! Today I tried their Kare Kare special and it was absolutely delicious (especially with the shrimp paste). Everything here is always so good! read more

The portions here are kind of decieving. Plates are mostly rice and or pancit. The pancit is standard, maybe a little too salty for our taste. The both the chicken bbq and beef short ribs were marinated well. Definitely filipino style as it is very banana ketchup forward. Lumpia came out hot, decent amount of filling but for the price you only get 3-4 pieces. Nice to have Filipino food represented in this area. Overall just okay. Not sure if I would come back but worth a try. Bring your non-Filipino friends. All outdoor seating, picnic table style. There was a line on Sunday morning. Waited 35 mins for our food. read more

I ordered the chicken Adobo with Jasmine rice, and a rice cake, and a side of lumpia. The chicken was very tasty and not dry at all. I love that it tender and packed with flavor, the Jasmine rice was fluffed to perfection. The lumpia omg, yes delicious the dipping sauce is so tasty. I was very happy with my lunch. The service was very good, she was very precise in taking my order and making sure she got the order correct before sending it thru, I loved that. The wait wasn't long, and I will say the wait wasn't too long for the food, it was worth the wait. The ambiance was fun and a hidden gem in the open. I was very happy with my experience. read more

Lola Betty's Kitchen is a fantastic Filipino takeout place located in Old Town Camarillo across the street from Fred's Pizza & Woodfired Kitchen and near Planet Sushi. They serve huge portions of some of the best Filipino food I've ever had at great prices. I especially like their Chicken BBQ and the Longsilog (marinated beef) plates. They also offer great daily specials. Please note waits can be long when they're busy. However, the food is so good it's well worth it. Also, this is a minor detail, but they close their window after they take your order. The first time I was there I was worried that they had just closed. However, I learned that they do this after every order and it's nothing to be concerned about. Although they are mainly a takeout place they do have limited seating in front and a few picnic tables in the back if you want to eat there. So, if you're looking for a huge, delicious, Filipino meal at a great price I highly recommend Lola Betty's Kitchen. read more

The place is set up as a fast food restaurant, and they cook your food fresh and hot as soon as you order it, so you get to enjoy the hot entrée. Food quality is satisfying as expected. I like the limited menu idea so they can focus on the good-quality food and taste. The staff are friendly and very accommodating to your simple needs. I would highly recommend this place to everyone and it's close to the freeway so it's very convenient. read more

Well, I'll be damned. This place saved me a drive to Oxnard for foods. I was in town for a couple weeks and had been craving Filipino food, but my lazy ass didn't want to drive to Oxnard after hitting all the bowls. Then I remembered I still hadn't dropped in here since they opened. It's street parking only and there's always plenty of spots available any given day. I got the pork bbq skewer meal which came with 2 hefty scoops of rice, 3 skewers, pancit and a puto. Let me tell you something - when I say I ate everything. I should've taken an after photo because wow. Even that banana leaf at the bottom got licked clean. Yeah, I said it. Skewers- fire. Perfectly seasoned and super juicy. I hate dry meat. The dipping sauce they provided paired perfectly. I sure did use all of it. I loved how loaded that pancit was. There was a ton of veggies. Service was great. I only interacted with the lady working the front who was friendly and nice. read more

Worth the wait. Every. Single. Time. The lumpia was shatteringly crispy. The sticky garlic rice with a fried egg on top, I don't know who approved this decision but I'd like to send them flowers. The meat was grilled to perfection. And just when you think it's over, you see the little cake in the box for a sweet ending. This is the kind of meal you think about on a random Tuesday at 2pm. I'm thinking about it right now. read more

Each dish is packed with flavor and reminds me of true home-style cooking. We look forward to any chance we get to visit Lola Betty's, and it has quickly become one of our go-to spots.

First time. Street parking is available and there is a nearby lot in walking distance. The place is tiny & cute located in old town Camarillo. It's either to-go or outdoor dining in the front or in the back. You order at the window and wait for your food (cooked to order). The young lady at the counter was very helpful and welcoming. We enjoyed the tapsilog (Filipino marinated beef) served with garlic rice, fried egg, vinegar based sauce, and puto (Filipino rice based sweet dessert). We also ordered the ube crinkles. These should have a slightly hard crispy exterior and soft inside. Unfortunately, the inside was also hard. That means they are not fresh. Too bad. Lastly, we ordered calamansi juice hoping it was fresh as well, but unfortunately it is a canned product. Hope in the future we can revisit and review if they announce selling only fresh ube crinkles and consider fresh calamansi juice, especially when they are in season just like now. read more

Picnic tables were nicely shaded. read more

I was craving some Filipino food after shopping at the outlets. So glad I found this spot to try. The building looks like an old drive thru food spot but you can't use the road anymore (they blocked it). Thankfully there's a lot of seating at the front where you order and at the back where there is a few tables/bench seating. This was also good option for us because this space allowed us to eat while ensuring our dog had some outside time. We decided to order lumpia Shanghai, pancit plate, longsilog plate, and chicken bbq plate. The worker who helped me was friendly and quick. The best thing we had was the garlic rice. It was so good! It had all the garlic flavor I was wanting. The longanisa was cooked well and the rice cake was soft and moist. The pancit was good; I was hoping for a little more soy sauce and vinegar flavor but still very enjoyable. My husband had the chicken bbq and he really liked it. He finished it all! The lumpia was crisp. The worker told me it had a mix of ground beef and ground pork. I don't typically like that pairing so it was just okay for me. But we had two orders of it and it was all gone by the time we left (mostly eaten by my husband), so it was still good. read more

The food is delicious. Served hot and fresh with generous portions. The lumpia is the best, 3 pieces for $5.

Tried this "to go only" food establishment and ordered short ribs bowl for $17, lumpia (3 for $5) and ube crinkles (6 for $7). The bowl is not really a bowl of food. It's the same to go boxes you get from Chinese fast food resto. I got 2 scoops of white rice, pansit, 1 puto, and 2 strips of short ribs (each was cut into 3 small pieces). The short ribs were overcooked - they're kinda hard and the flavor was just ok. The Pansit and the lumpia are really good. The ube crinkles are dry. Overall, it's a good resto but I think it's overpriced. I wish they have more variety. read more

I am so happy we have this spot in Camarillo and that they are serving up stellar Filipino food for all to try. My review was somewhere between 4-5 stars but bumped them up to a 5 because the service was super friendly, the food delicious, and good sized portions! Our only critique is the lumpia seemed to need a little more of a pork/meat flavor or ratio. We couldn't put our finger on it - everyone enjoyed the lumpia but noted needing to give them another try as it was missing something. Otherwise the experience truly was a good one and the food was so so tasty! I've been following Lola Betty's from when they did catering and more pop ups. I always like their food and their hospitality. I feel so lucky that Camarillo has something so stellar in their downtown. A much needed addition and I've been so happy to see lines everytime I drive by. I came on a Sunday at opening and there was already a crowd, I love this for them. My friend and I ordered and were told it would be a 15-20 minute wait time. I honestly don't think this is bad at all, especially if you are downtown sipping beers across the street or browsing the local businesses. The staff taking our order was a younger gentlemen and he was very friendly and got our order taken down correctly. Staff seemed organized and efficient. I like that they call your name out opposed to a number system, so much easier so love that! Prices are fair. It's homemade, freshly cooked Filipino food. It's hard to find another place comparable in the area and again, I felt the portion sizes were very nice. Maybe only upgrade would make a lumpia serving 4 instead of 3? I only say that because if you are sharing the side of lumpia you only get 1 1/2. Otherwise the bowls/plates were very generous. I couldn't finish my entire short rib plate so I'd say it's a good value. The short rib plate I had was very very tasty! I've also had their chicken adobo in the past and liked that a lot. The short rib is my favorite so far though as the meat was tender and I liked the mild light sauce. Pancit was delicious and the white rice could have used a little garlic but it was still tasty and a great side accompanied by the veggies. My friends also had the short ribs and meat plate, they liked their meals as well. I really want to try their sausage next time, yummy! Overall this is such a cute spot to come dine casually in Camarillo and I'm eager to come back to try all of their plates. Food was all pretty good overall, the vibes are fun (love the logo and setup) and staff were very welcoming. Welcome to Camarillo Lola Betty's. Yay! read more

Ms. Lola Betty, please come to the FRONT!!! For years, I have always enjoyed homemade Filipino food so when I heard about this place from my bestie Jara, I knew I had to try it out. Lola Betty's did not disappoint!! On the first day, I ordered the Chicken Adobo and BBQ Chicken. Both plates were just pure perfection. The chicken adobo was tender, flavorful, and just fell off the bone. The sauce on the chicken just melted into the rice. The pancit was great and the BBQ Chicken was tasty. The very next day, I went back again. That's how good it was. Even though I get very sad when the chicken adobo is not on the menu because it sells out, it gives me a chance to try other things that are just as good! On this visit, my chicken adobo was available and I also got to try the pork skewers. Of course it was a 10/10. I love this place so much! Some other things to know. This is take-out only. So you would need to park and walk over. Lots of people love to order their food and go across to grab a drink. The menu items are limited and they do a great job of updating what sells out throughout the day. Next, we will try the short ribs! :) thank you Lola Betty's Kitchen! read more

First time trying this place. Ordered from a delivery service which I know isn't always the best (I did pay the small extra fee for priority delivery) but everything came hot and fresh. They even put tamper evident stickers on the boxes for safety. Ordered a beef short rib plate and chicken bbq plate with extra side order of beef short ribs and bbq chicken and it was a lot of food! The ribs are tender and the chicken isn't dry. The pancit is also on point. The lumpia are perfectly crispy and delicious. I will say I've never had a rice cake that comes with the plates but I was surprised at how tasty it was as a little sweet treat. Next time I hope to try the longsi! I love supporting small businesses like this and I hope they do well! Thank you Lola Betty's for the yummy food! read more

Found this place driving through Cam and always noticed that there were people waiting which seemed like a good sign. I waited a while for my bbq chicken plate but it was worth the wait. The rice I got was a little dry but for me the rice is mostly filler. Everything else was great. Great portion size as I was stuffed after. Service was good and the outdoor seating back away from the street was nice. I tried to order the lumpia but they were out... which I took to mean they must be a very good favorite. The chicken, the hitch is the main part of the meal was definitely good with a good marinade. The pancit was good too and had a nice unique flavor to it. I definitely will be back to try other menu items. Glad I found this place. read more

Lola Betty's Kitchen - BBQ Chicken Plate - Food Trucks Near Me - Camarillo, California

My first time here cute little spot downtown Camarillo, old town. I really didn't know how to order the menu is tiny. You can barely see it. The windows are tinted. I ordered a pancit bowl and I asked for some pork meat. They removed it off a skewer and placed it in my bowl. The reason why I put the stars so low is because I didn't realize that I paid a lot of money for a bowl of Pancit that didn't have any meat in it or any vegetables in it pork or anything. I have eaten Pancit in the past many times in many places even home made by friends and it had pieces of pork in it. The pancit I ate today had nothing in it. It was just plain pasta pieces. It was just an expensive bowl of sopa .. unfortunately I will not be returning .. not worth the price . read more

As a person who can appreciate Filipino food, it was great news to hear that an eatery opened up in the Camarillo area. Situated in Old Town and right across from Topa-Topa brewery, this seems like an ideal place for a new food joint place to venture. Now my first experience here at LBK was during their first week of existence. I arrived here at 2pm and was unfortunately informed they had sold out of all their dishes except the BBQ pork or chicken bowl; no lumpia, no beef, no pancit. As disappointing as it was, I was glad for LBK that there was a such a demand for their food that they "successfully" ran out. What settled for was the BBQ skewers. The unpleasant part of the order is that it took over 30-minutes to receive a bowl that contained: 1 1/2 scoops of rice, 1/2 scoop of pancit, and 2 pork skewers that seemed to have been split in half from 1 bigger skewer. Perhaps they were still low on supply of food and felt to provide smaller portions just to satisfy customers; for $17, the quantity to dollar ratio did not match up. That being said, the flavors of the pork and pancit were on point. The flavors matched a good Filipino BBQ protein, I only with there had been more for the amount of money spent. Seating can be limited so I took my bowl across the street and matched it with a Topa-Topa brew. Hopefully LBK will solve their inventory of food so no customer will be limited to their dishes and the amount of time it takes to get the order to the customer. The few negative issues will not stop me from coming back to LBK because I saw they were doing the best possible and that they are a representation of Filipino flavor that is lacking in Camarillo. read more
