    Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Parking: 3/5 Family friendly: 4/5 Stroller friendly: 2/5 ADA accessible: 3/5 Mama I made it! Second time attempting to eat her and finally made it. First time was on a Saturday years ago. Wifey and I saw the line outside writing around the building and automatically got back in the car. This time (Wed morning @9am) we beat the crowd. We had a table of 12 with 3 high chairs and they were able to accommodate it easily on this day. I was expecting good food, but instead it was phenomenal. My wife and I ordered the kamayan pancake flight ($20) to share, Nutella pancakes for the kids to share($14.95), birria chilaquiles ($18) and I look moco ($16.95). It was A LOT OF FOOD. Didn't even finish the pancakes. If my kids (3,6) eat the food, then you know it's good. Service was super quick and very pleasant and helpful. I love the atmosphere with the island vibe, island music and Tagalog word of the day sign. Parking is tricky because it's shared with other restaurants and is limited. Also, like I mentioned before we called on a weekday perhaps to coming in and there wasn't much of a with for a big party. If you're expecting the same during the weekend, I'll pray for you; unless you're one of those people willing to wait long period. Highly recommend Lola's by MFK for your next breakfast, lunch.

    Lola's by MFK is honestly one of the best Filipino restaurants I've ever been to. The inside is beautiful and has so many thoughtful touches that remind you of the Philippines, which makes the experience feel even more special. The staff were also very welcoming. The Adobo Omelette is sooo good and always a must for me, and the chicharron was so delicious that I had to order another one to-go before leaving. Everything we've tried there has been flavorful and comforting. This has become one of our go-to spots whenever we visit California, and it's always worth the stop!

    Love the bangus sisig and chicken adobo, but their lines kill me. Thank goodness for virtual wait lists because I do not have the youth for queueing in the morning anymore!! The service is top notch and dishes are cooked with so much love. You can tell every dish was blessed by someone's grandma before being brought to your table, hahaha. It's actually been awhile since I've been here, but I don't recall ever trying a dish I didn't love. From sweet to savory, Lola's by MFK does it all and they do it well.

    Two egg - Tocino

    My best friend took me here after she reassured me multiple times I would love it lol. And turns out... I did end up loving it! I ordered the 2 egg w/ tocino. I was actually confused at first because the tocino wasn't the typical red color I was used to so I was kinda thrown off. But it ended up tasting delicious regardless! Me and my friend ended up also sharing the lumpia and it really did remind me a lot of the lumpia my lola made when I was growing up. The service was good, and there was ample room for us to get seated on a late Thursday morning! The murals on the wall were also super adorable. The experience was overall wonderful. Would def come again!

    We were super excited to try this Filipino spot and had heard great things. It definitely lived up to the hype. Service was good overall. Ambiance is a fun cute brunch spot. - Silog Breakfast Bowl with Longanisa 5/5: Good portion size and delicious all around, everything was super flavorful. - Ube Tres Leches French Toast 5/5: So yummy! Sweet but still really good and not overwhelming. - Ube Cold Brew 5/5: Delicious and a fun, unique drink to go with the meal.

    This place is fantastic. It's worth the wait. If you love Filipino breakfast you'll love this place. It's a mix of traditional Filipino breakfast with fusion mix. Taking some of the best foods like chicken adobo and longanisa and garlic fried rice and eggs. So yummy. I enjoy coming here for some Filipino breakfast or brunch. So delicious and fresh.

    Ahí Tuna Sisig
    Philip A.

    MUST TRY!!! Had a great visit at Lola's by MFK! From the moment we walked in, the space felt vibrant and welcoming, with a modern twist on Filipino comfort food that made the whole experience feel fun and memorable. We ordered the ahi tuna sisig and the adobo fried rice omelet, and both dishes absolutely stood out. The ahi tuna sisig was UNIQUE, fresh and flavorful--perfectly seasoned with that signature tangy, savory kick, while still letting the quality of the fish shine. It had a great balance of brightness and richness that kept every bite interesting. The adobo fried rice omelet was just as impressive. The rice was packed with that classic garlicky, slightly tangy adobo flavor, and wrapping it in a soft, fluffy omelet took it to another level. It was hearty, comforting, and incredibly satisfying without feeling too heavy. For drinks, we tried the ube cold brew and the buko pandan cold brew, and both were unique in the best way. The ube cold brew had this smooth, slightly sweet and nutty flavor that paired surprisingly well with the coffee, while the buko pandan version was refreshing and subtly tropical, making it a perfect complement to the meal. You can really tell they put creativity and care into everything they serve, and it shows. Highly recommend trying the ahi tuna sisig and the adobo fried rice omelet--plus the cold brews if you're feeling adventurous. Definitely looking forward to coming back and exploring more of the menu!

    I got a chance to try Lola's again and ordered different items. It's safe to say that it's worth thr hype/wait! I got the ube french toast this time and the pandan coffee. They were both so delish and not too sweet. I also tried their lumpia, which was good, but nothing too special about it. Food came out super quick and service was amazing. Will definitely be back.

    Ube pancakes
    Perlie P.

    Our first time checking out Lola's and we are so happy we did! Everything we ordered is absolutely delicious. I ordered the bang-silog which is the fried whole milk fish, it comes with the garlic rice and tomato salad. The fish was perfectly cooked and tender, went perfectly with the rice and the tomato salad gave a nice freshness to the bite. We also tried the silog breakfast bowl with the tocino. Tocino was well marinated and delicious! Ube pancakes were for dessert, not overly sweet and the pancakes had the perfect chew. Service was very friendly and warm. Jas, our waitress, was wonderful! The ambiance is very homey with cute decor. We will be back for sure, I know I'm going to be craving this breakfast again!

    I'd been to their dinner service, but I finally got the chance to try out this iconic brunch! Luckily, it was restaurant week so we got to enjoy the brunch kamayan deal which came with a cold brew or mimosa for $35. THE FOOD: It was actually my first time eating kamayan, so was definitely excited for the experience! It fed 1-2 people, and I think it was good enough for me and my friend to share. The garlic rice was an amazing base for all of the dishes on the kamayan, with the longanisa and tocino being my favorite. Both were perfectly sweet, and the tocino was rich and tender. Beef tapa and chicken adobo were also good, and the lumpia was on par with past lumpia I've had. The cherry tomato salad was a nice palate cleanser. They have thai chilis available, either whole or sliced, and there were condiments at the table like banana ketchup, seasoning sauce, and hot sauces. THE SERVICE: Super long wait to be seated, though I'm not sure if it was different due to restaurant week. There's a system to queue up and they text you when it's your turn. Once seated, food came out decently fast. Servers were very nice and helpful! THE VIBES: Pretty cozy - I'd bring friends, family, or a date here! BOTTOM LINE: Don't think I'd be here too often due to the wait, but glad I got to try it! I wouldn't be mad if someone invited me out here though (as long as they come first and queue up for me? ;) )

    What a wonderful breakfast experience! I needed a simple breakfast that would not leave me stuffed and was tasty and this did not disappoint. Two things that brought me in: cold brew flight and Ube, and I got a lot more than that! The food was tasty, I had my sweet and savory and was not disappointed! The service was pretty good, and the lady was patient with me while I decided on my order and answered all our questions! I love this is a small business- it was so cute and situated in a nice shopping center right off the freeway with superchargers nearby in case you have a trip ahead of you. Will def be back for more!

    Elizabeth G.

    the food here was to die for. i've never had chicken adobo rice but wow!!! the gravy on top of the omelet was great too. we also got an ube horchata (the best!!!) and loaded potatoes. the service was so fast it felt like 5 minutes passed from putting in our order to actually getting it. we will definitely be back here.

If, however, you enjoy drinking beer that actually tastes like beer, go anywhere else.

Monkish is the archetype of the undrinkable-but-worshipped California brewery -- sixteen IPAs and one sad, soapy afterthought of a pilsner. There's no food on offer aside from whatever vendor might be visiting, and he was sold out when we visited. As for atmosphere, expect lots of unsupervised children running amok while patrons shatter glasses. We cut our visit even shorter than usual because one bartender kept interjecting in a voice so loud that it literally startled us each time he made chit-chat with other patrons. I've said it about the Torrance location, and I'll say it again about Anaheim: Monkish is junkish.

Especially during weekends, big games, etc. We came on a Sunday during a game AND movie night, but were able to secure a place to park with some patience. Again, the place is huge. They had two bars open AND a booth outside selling canned drinks. There is lots of seating inside and outside. It was honestly hard for me to wrap my head around the size of the place! I also liked that they had multiple restrooms around the building. They have a very impressive beer and seltzer collection. You can get various sizes or a whole pitcher for the table. You do order food outside separately at the X Eats area. This is a food truck setup, but they did have an impressive amount of options.

The workers here are always super chill and friendly. They genuinely seem happy to be there and bring good energy to the place. Overall, it's a solid brewery with great vibes.

They were charging for parking so we paid $30 plus processing fee. Kevin the manager couldn't care less that we were here as customers not for the monster truck thing so they didn't give us a table and we had to sit at the bar. He initially said that there was a 30 min wait even though we could see empty tales. We had already paid so we had to stay to get the $30 discount on your bill when spending $30. He was not willing to refund since they were not technically the ones charging you. Once we sat at the bar, the bartender was nice and made us feel comfortable so we could enjoy our night. The place was crowded with families with kids, adults just overindulging and being very loud. The moment the event started time got closer, all of this crowd started leaving which allowed us to really enjoy our night. The food was great as always. The poke nachos are really tasty with a good balance of fish and nachos. The fish and chips is one of our go to dishes they are always perfectly cooked. We have noticed that shrinkflation has happened throughout the years, but after enjoying a few beers you don't notice anymore. This was the first time trying their burger and it was amazing! The patty was perfectly cooked and the flavors just worked together. We also decided to give the beeramisu a second try and we enjoyed it. It is a creative and unique twist to your traditional tiramisu. Since it had been a while, we didn't even know that they have a club now. We gladly join and got the poke nachos as a welcome gift. Overall the experience started on a bad note but we left happy after good food, service and drinks. Also, Kevin came by after the mess to check on us and apologize for the inconvenience.

I especially enjoyed the green cilantro sauce on the carne asada fries! I love that this location lets you do a beer flight with as few as 2 beers. Some of my favorite beers I tried in my flight were the Golden Stout, Wreck Alley (a stout), and Boat Shoes (a tropical IPA). One thing that shocked me about the restaurant setup was the lack of TVs. It has a sports vibe, especially with Angel Stadium right across the street, but the only TV I could see from where I was sitting was super far away. So come for great beer flights and fun apps, but not to hang out and watch sports.
