    Wow! Didn't know they moved closer to downtown. What a cute spot. Love the wallpaper and set up inside. They have lots of seating outside as well. We tried everything on the menu and enjoyed our time there. Well worth the visit for Filipino food.

    Super adorable Filipino restaurant with great food, decor and service. Love supporting Asian-owned family-run businesses. They have a great menu filled with amazing drinks both tea and coffee options, hot appetizers like bao buns and dumplings, and traditional rice plates and noodles. The plates were beautifully presented and the food came out fresh. You order at the front before sitting. We started with beef lumpia. They were crispy on the outside and tender filling inside. The lechon kawali was a little on the dry side but the taste was great with the tamarind aioli sauce. The skin was thick and very crispy. The cucumber salad and pickled onions were refreshing and paired very well with the richness of the pork belly. The jasmine rice was topped with crunchy garlic. The lemongrass chicken BBQ skewers was nicely charred and flavored perfectly. The pancit was a little sticky and not as seasoned as we had hoped. Lots of veggies though. The salted ube caramel latte was absolutely amazing! The portion sizes here were good for sharing. The parking was a nice lot nearby. The bathroom was well kept.

    No wait at 3 PM on a Sunday, but crowds came in waves. There's a covered patio in the front for seating, and 3 tables inside. You order at the counter and then they give you a number to take to your chosen table. The decor is pure technicolor 60's/70's Filipino kitsch and it's amazing. The star of the show is the food. We ordered the calamansi lemonade and the Siargao Summer with tapioca pearls, the Five Spice BBQ Liempo and the Mochi-Fried Chicken rice plates, and the spicy vegan dumplings. For those worried about spice levels, everything listed as "spicy" is quite mild overall. The drinks were AMAZING. They would have gotten 5 stars just for those. The Siargao Summer truly tastes like a tropical summer in a cup. Then our food came, and the flavors were all off the charts. The BBQ Liempo had that perfect balance of sweet and savory, and was grilled to perfection. The mochi-fried chicken was crispy and was delicious with the adobo glaze. We found ourselves wishing they could just sell bottles of the tamarind-garlic aioli. The vegan dumplings were also a great take on chili oil wontons. All in all, we're bummed Lucky Tigre doesn't have a West Coast outpost, because the flavors are truly incredible! We're happy we at least got the chance to swing by, and hope we'll get the chance again in the future.

    I had seen this place online and was excited to try it. The girls at the counter welcomed us in upon entry and promptly brought us our order. It was nice to have the option to sit inside or outside but there was no air conditioning inside. From what we ordered, the food was very average. We asked for the lumpia and the lechón dish. Both items were pretty bland but the white garlic sauce from the lechón saved it a little bit. I will have to make a separate review for their matcha if I come back.

    Lucky Tigre was a local recommendation and I'm so glad we listened. It was walking distance from CoHatch where I was working for the day. It was so busy when we arrived which is a good sign! We waited in line for about 30 minutes but it was worth the wait. A regular recognized we were newbies and recommended the pulled chicken adobo and all their drinks so that's what we ordered. We ordered the beef lumpia to start too! The pulled chicken adobo was served with coconut rice, cucumbers, and onions. This was so delicious. The pulled chicken adobo literally fell off my fork. The beef lumpia was so good. We started with 6 pieces. Good started to share! Nice and crispy! Love that it was beef and not pork. My drink was the iced ube salted caramel latte. So delicious and beautiful! Flavors on point! This place is super casual, but comfortable. Limited seating on the inside. There are picnic tables to share on the outside too.

    First time here and expectations were met! I really love the vibe of the place but when I stepped inside it was a bit on the warmer side just an fyi if you plan eating there. The food was delicious too! I can't stop thinking about the pulled chicken adobo. The beef lumpia was also amazing! Next time I want to try their coffee as I hear good things about it.

    Pretty good Filipino food in Tampa. There are not a lot of Filipino restaurant choices in Tampa and this one didn't disappoint. The menu is pretty simple from starters, baos, and rice plate dishes. They have a good selection of drinks- matcha, Filipino inspired beverage, and expresso drinks. We decided to get three rice plates- longanisalog, Lechon kawali, and mochi fried chicken. The plates came with atchara- pickled vegetables usually papaya, cucumber salad, and garlic fried rice. All were good accompaniment. The Lechon kawali was good- crispy skin and good with accompanying dips- I prefer mang Tomas lechon sauce or vinegar. The mochi fried chicken is flavorful and delicious. Longanisa is a Filipino sausage- it was good. The calamansi juice is really good. Expresso drinks doesn't have a strong flavor. Make sure to make room for dessert- we had the halo halo and we shared it. It was good with the ube ice cream - it needs leche flan to elevate it a little more but it would do. Place has indoor and outdoor seatings. Service is attentive. Ample of street parking. Definitely would come back.

    The food, the service, the drinks, the environment, the people. It's all top notch. I was so sorry to see the other location close, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this place. Missed the food so much! Can't wait to go back again and again. The lumpia... come on!

    So good. Ample amount of parking in the lot and free street parking. Good customer service. Great drinks, food, and locally baked desserts. I've visited the previous location in SOHO numerous of times and this is my first time at the new location is old west tampa. All the vibes are still there but you are now able to sit inside, bar seating, or patio seating for a nice day (with outside outlets). Julie one of the owners was very sweet and enthusiastic when i walked and when others walked in. I ordered the Smores Ube cookie, Ube donut (both from ngoc bakery) and the salted caramel ube latte. The latte was very delicious, my only thing I would wish differently and that I ordered jsut one more shot for more of a coffee taste. The latte was perfectly balanced, tasted all the flavors: salt, ube, caramel, coffee and it wasn't too sweet at all, which i love! I've tried (from the other location) dumplings, bowls, lumpia, and I truly appreciate the vegan/plant based options, especially plant based pork which i find rare at a lot of restaurants. 10/10 would visit again!

    Came in after seeing them post about their coffee and pastries on Instagram. They had free parking on the street so I walked over and inside is so cute. I ordered a salted Ube caramel latte and a tiger spiced banana muffin. It didn't take long for it to be ready and the lady behind the counter was so incredibly sweet. My drink was delicious I watched her put Ube at the bottom and mixed with the espresso and it was so Yumm!! Also, I really enjoyed the tiger spice banana muffin, beautiful spices swirled inside the banana muffin it was very good. Definitely will be back to try their full menu!

    Chill staff and vibes, great food. Lots of free street parking outside. Pretty quick service and the Filipino food is awesome. Lumpia (not pictured) is a definite must and great small app. We also got pancit topped with lechon and that was juicy fatty and crunchy all in one glorious bite. Tocino "spam"silog with a fried egg was also so flavorful and comes with tasty garlic rice.

    So Lucky Tigre started as a food truck and now they have an actual restaurant. That's how you know you're doing something right. It's owned by this husband and wife team - a proper dynamic duo - and when you're inside, it feels like you're just hanging out in their kitchen. Which I guess technically you kind of are? But in the best way possible. Very intimate. You can see the love and care they put into everything. I had the lemongrass chicken skewers, pork dumplings, and shrimp lumpia. All of it was just...muah. You can taste that these are people who've been perfecting their recipes for years. This isn't just food - it's their story on a plate. And here's the thing - they have shirts that say "Feeling Lucky" and I bought one. Because yes, yes I am feeling lucky. And also because when a mom and pop spot has merch, you have to support that. It's basically the law. So yeah, West Tampa. Great food, beautiful people doing their thing. You should absolutely check it out.

    Lemongrass BBQ chicken skewers rice plate
    Christine G.

    Came for a weekday lunch and opted for the lemongrass BBQ chicken skewer rice plate. I really enjoyed it. The chicken skewers were lean, and the BBQ glaze was incredibly appetizing. I loved the crispy, well-browned exterior and the layered sweetness from the marinade. The jasmine rice was wonderfully aromatic, with the garlic flavor coming through clearly. The rice was fluffy and full of flavor on its own. The atcharaa tasted authentic and would work well as a palate cleanser, though I'll admit I'm personally not a big fan of ginger, so it leaned a bit too gingery for me. The cucumber salad, however, was extremely refreshing and balanced out the richness of the rice and the hearty sweetness of the chicken beautifully. The plate doesn't look large at first glance, but it was very satisfying. The flavors and portion were just right. I left feeling full, yet still wishing for maybe one more bite. Big shoutout to the interior decor as well. I would say even without tasting the food, the authentic decoration is a good cue for me to know I can expect a great meal. The walls are decorated with commercial artwork that may look just retro at first, but is actually very authentic and historically meaningful. As a Taiwanese kid, seeing traditional Tiger Balm advertisements and postwar posters from a time when U.S. and Western aid played a major role in East Asia genuinely made my heart sing. I never lived through that era, but I remember those images from history textbooks. Seeing them here, along with the floral tablecloths, really brought a smile to my face.

The staff at the front were super friendly, which made the experience even better. I went with my mom, and since it was a really hot day, she asked for a recommendation for something refreshing. She ended up getting the passion fruit green tea and absolutely loved it! She mentioned how perfectly balanced it was not too sweet, just right. I ordered the lychee green tea, and it was also really good! I personally enjoy sweeter teas, and this one hit the spot for me. Just a heads-up it might be a bit too sweet for some, but if you're into sweet teas, I definitely recommend giving the lychee green tea a try. We also couldn't resist trying the matcha crème brûlée croffle. I've never had anything like it before, and wow it was so good, I'm already planning to go back for another one. Overall, I had a great experience here. Next time, I'd love to try one of their milk-based drinks, but if you're looking for something light and refreshing, their teas are a great choice. I'll definitely be coming back!

I'm not the biggest fan of matcha but my daughter really wanted to try it cause it's trending in school. The quality of the matcha is definitely high end. I forgot the exact name of this drink but it's pretty much matcha, whole milk, and strawberry puree. We added strawberry boba to it. If you are a matcha lover, you won't be disappointed! I'll probably order one of their top 5 drinks next time. I understand the prices have to be inflated cause of the location but I'm not sure if I can get myself to spend $10 on this drink again even though it tasted great. Ambiance is clean and modern but wished it was more upbeat. Workers were friendly but wished they were more enthusiastic.

The dessert drink was absolutely delicious.

I'm one of those type of people that like to custom my drinks and food so next time I would probably omit some of the fruits in there and either add extra Ube or extra ice cream or something like that if they allow it.

Like most other Filipino restaurants/cafe, there is a behind-the-counter, glass protected buffet at the forefront of the restaurant. From here, you can make your selections as you build your combination platter. The Filipiniana also offers a small section of baked goods and desert, while specializing in drinks such as Halo Halo and other Asian-curated beverages. Interesting to note that the Filipiniana offers catering in the kamayan style (simply put, a spread of various dishes over banana leaves to be shared by multiple people amd eaten with hands). However, they don't serve this in house/at the location - you will have to give advance notice (like with other caterers) to have this prepared. The Filipiniana is definitely a good spot to satiate your curiousity, explore, and discover Filipino cuisine!

I went inside and let them know I was there, and they told me it would be ready in about five minutes. They weren't kidding--the food was ready in less than five minutes! We ordered the Korean-style wings. I got the Hot Garlic and my son got the Sweet Teriyaki, and WOW--they were amazing. They were perfectly fried, crispy, and not overly seasoned or drenched in sauce.

There are no servers and no bar or alcohol, so it's not really a sit-down, full-service type of restaurant.

I'm definitely glad I finally gave Domoishi a try, and it's absolutely going into my regular carryout rotation. Being right across the street doesn't hurt either!
