You'll pay a few more dollars for the food, combos, but but the taste of the food and quality have always been good every time I've gone there. I've been there pretty often since they're right around the corner from my house. Other places are not so consistent, IP & SC and I've been disappointed more often that satisfied with the quality. read more

We got take out yesterday afternoon. There was a line of 7 people. We fell behind them. The walls are stainless steel. There are display cases of food. There are no name tags. You have to ask the employees what the food is if you don't know. Pop music plays from a speaker. It was a 10 minute wait until we got to order. We ordered Laing, pansit, and sisig. A lot of onions was in the sisig. The laing was spicy because of the jalapeño pepper. The palabok had hard boiled eggs. Pansit was $9. Sisig was $12. Laing was $9. It's comparable to other Filipino fast food restaurants. read more

Terrible. The food taste awful. The meat, especially the pork dishes don't taste fresh. It's like they left uncooked meat unrefrigerated for days before cooking them. read more

The Pork Adodo here is so so delicious! It's not dried out and the adobo sauce was well balanced. There are so much food choices to choose from, but I was craving adobo. They also cooked the Jasmine Rice to perfection! The rice was fluffy and not mushy; whatever Jasmine rice brand they use it is of good quality! Lutong Bahay is Filipino food Buffet style: take a number ticket, pick and point at the food you want; then pay at a separate register. Takeout only joint inside a small Filipino market. Service is very welcoming. -Parking should be no problem since it is located next to a huge lot with multiple businesses. - Payment: Cash and Card accepted. read more

They have great selections of Filipino food and desserts. It's inside a Filipino grocery store like a one stop eat and shop store. They have kare kare, bbq, adobo, fish, sinigang and plenty of desserts and kakanins to choose from. However there are no prices anywhere for a combo meal or single item. They said the prices would depend on the viand you choose, but still give us a ballpark figure. I only know they have fresh lumpia for $5. Place is neat and clean read more

They cancelled our Cebuchon order THE DAY BEFORE my father's 85th birthday party. I ordered a whole Cebuchon on Tuesday (2/24) for Sunday (3/1) pickup. There was a 50% deposit and they said I can send it via Zelle. On Saturday (2/28), the day before the party, Anne called me to say they cannot fulfill the order. She said their oven is broken and they tried fixing it and cannot do anything else, etc. etc. I told her they could have called me earlier so we could've find another place to order Cebuchon for our party. When I asked for the refund of my deposit (that I sent via Zelle), she said her manager said they only give refunds via credit card or cash and cannot send refund via Zelle (apparently they can only receive and not send via Zelle ). Manager is not available and Anne (worker) said she cannot do anything else. I didn't want to deal with it anymore and just wanted my deposit back. I drove to their store in Eagle Rock; Anne apologized and gave me my deposit back and gave me a small Piche-Piche kakanin item for all the inconvenience. They caused too much hassle: they cancelled my order the day before and I had to go to their store to get my deposit back (which I sent via Zelle). Not going back to this place. read more

Lutong Bahay - I was so disappointed! I was looking forward eating the vegetables from the Kare-kare but when I got home, there weren't any! - Grocery Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Food and service ! There's a lot of filipino restaurant/ eatery around this area, luckily we chose this. We ordered 2 item meal per person but honestly it can serve 2 people per meal.... I should have took a pic so I can show it... my kids love it especially the beef steak and the bbq. The adobo is very tasty too. I ordered lumpiang hubad and dinuguan . Thank you lutong bahay for that good lunch. Going back to bay area today but will definitely spread the news read more

Come here all the time when I need a quick meal. Super good food and good quality. The food tastes just like home. No matter how many times I come, the food is very consistent. All the workers are very friendly and make time for conversation. read more

So we pulled into the lot for something else completely and I ran in just too see... Well after the smell lured me deeper into the shop there was no way we weren't going try as much food as possible! I wish I could tell you all the names but I don't know them... But what I can say is the man behind the counter was so nice and offered to let us taste something and from there guided us to a dish that had lechon with some type of slaw on top, we had the oxtails in maybe a coconut peanut sauce with long beans, the fried rice was delicious and semi sticky in the perfect way, the noodles had all the right flavors and removed me of a childhood snack I'd grab a a local restaurant. And the vegetable roll and plantain/jackfruit roll were the perfect little sides. I'm not sure why anyone would give this place any lower than 5 read more

went for pork adobo, rice and pancit bihon. chicken bones in the pork adobo - not good.

This review is solely based on Food Safety & Sanitation regarding food handler(s) at this establishment; the food is great but cleanliness is concerning. As I pulled up to pick up dinner, there was a guy urinating near the storefront besides the bushes. I said to myself "I hope this guy doesn't work near the food stall." As I walked into the store, the man urinating next to a bush was walking behind me and went straight into the kitchen. Then I said to myself "I hope he washes his hands before...." and that's when I saw him handling a large metal bowl with what seems to be uncooked food. Again, the food is great but this will be the last time I'll be eating at this establishment. read more

The Good: The portions of food that are served up here are dang huge. This isn't like your Panda Express type of portions. The styrofoam container you'll leave with will probably weight at least 3-5 lbs no matter what you order. I've seen combos for anywhere from $7 to $14. There are some items that are more expensive than others, completely to be expected if you ask me because they are not the usual daily faves. Some of the specialty items include skewers of bbq meat, poached salmon, egg washed and fried egg plant stuffed with meat and veggies, etc. The rice that comes along with the combos is plentiful also, not 2 scoops with an ice cream scooper kind of portions. There are a few things that I really enjoyed but they don't seem to make those items so often anymore. The items that I enjoyed include: sweet and sour meatballs, fried fish, teriyaki chicken, and their turon. Parking in their lot is free but can also be terribly complicated because of how busy this lot gets with the other businesses in here. Nobody seems to follow the directions as far as which direction to drive and all that. Goodness. The Bad: The staff in the food service kitchen area aren't real happy campers. They do their jobs but they aren't real personable. They talk a lot amongst themselves but won't have much patience with their customers. I've noticed the customers and the servers usually just kind of bark orders at each other. And even when you go and pay for your items at the check out register, the cashiers aren't real friendly either. Even before covid caused all these closures and what not, their prices had been going up and up and up. After a while, although we'd ordered the same items time and time again, the prices started to differ. Sometimes the meal was $7, sometimes $8 and at least a time or two it was $10. Hmm, I guess it depends on who helps you but it's not great that there isn't an actual set price for anything it seems. Beware, sometimes people have huge orders and so you may wait in line for your number to be called for quite some time. Sometimes it moves quickly and some times the wait is just incredible. It all depends on the time of day as well, or so it seems. The Ugly: The market x restaurant have a C cleanliness rating. To me, that is terrible. It looks like there are folks cleaning something all the time here, but to find that this spot has a C rating, that's pretty scary. read more

I have not been here in a while. I was craving Dinuguan and I love the way they cook Dinuguan. Unfortunately it now costs $11 for a medium tub!?!? The medium tub seems smaller and I also noticed that it was cold. After heating it up, it still tastes good, so 2 stars. But next time, I think I will cook this dish myself. ;( read more

Lutong Bahay - What a rip off! - Grocery Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great food- been coming for years. Lately however, I've been finding hair in my food unfortunately. It's not all the time but it's been somewhat more present lately... I do still love the food though- they cook everything amazingly. read more

The cooked take-out foods are DELICIOUS (Eagle Rock location). Any entree cooked there has been great in my opinion. It's one of the best Filipino cooked fast foods in Los Angeles! Five stars for the cooked take out foods. I tried the Vermont location, it is NOT as good as Eagle Rock location. I prefer to take a longer drive to Eagle Rock. The check out lines are long and slow. The customer service isn't that great. the cashier attendants do not take the time for customer satisfaction. They do not even honor pricing for when an item has the wrong price listed directly on the item. It's a hit and miss experience. Three stars because of the poor customer service. read more

Good variety of choices to choose from! Fresh cooked daily! Always yummy Filipino food! Nice staff! Love the silogs and entrees! Will always be back! read more

I ordered 4 items last Friday over the phone, paid fully for today''s pick up 12/31/23 and when I get to pick them up, was told they did not see the chicken teriyaki in my order. They offered different item to replace but I declined and asked for refund instead. There is a reason why I ordered the item specifically. Very disappointing. read more

They finally got with the program and got a little organized. Their cooked food is delicious - although I did see them use prepacked powder sauce. Good go to place when you're not up for cooking. read more

I haven't tried most of the food, but what I have tried, I loved. We usually get the vegetable lumpia and their barbecue. Both are so delicious and are a must try. The vegetable lumpia is really big and so cheap. They are very generous with their filling and it's so good. I believe they run out quick so you have to come early. The barbecue sticks are also very generous. The meat is deliciously seasoned and they are not stingy with the meat portions. read more

Huge selection! Beef steak was so tender, the Chinese long bean was so flavorful!!!! The mungo beans were just like how mom makes them! 2 thumbs up! read more

The place to go if looking for variety. There are really so many viands to choose from so look first then wait in line for your turn and be ready with your choices because the servers are really quick and eager to pack your food and send you on your way. Our orders have always tasted good - the chicken and pork bbqs are a standout, but really, so much good stuff on offer. read more

Pros: free parking, cheap, and huge portions. Cons: food is not that good, at least the breakfast (Tocilog) and it's cold. So if you're all about quantity instead of quality, this is your jam! read more

I normally don't care about writing reviews, but I am compelled to do a review this time. Ordered Seafood mixed with gata at Lutong Bahay as we have had them many times before and it was really really good. However we ordered this dish for Thanksgiving and we were so disappointed because the way it was cooked, ingredients, texture, taste wise and everything else was so bad. How can you say it's seafood when 97% of it's ingredients is fish? There was one or 2 squid and tiny tiny shrimps. That's not the only issue. The dish was so watery and it was so bland; so different from all the prior times we have ordered this. We definitely felt cheated having paid $70 for a dish that we have no choice but discard it. And we were embarrassed as the guests were also saying the same thing. Lutong Bahay, you should refund what we paid you (I kept the receipt just so you're aware this complaint is legit). read more

I go here all the time. They remodeled the kitchen so its more clean and organized. The food is always so awesome but it has become more expensive. I love getting the combos and just make sure to ask for utensils cuz they do forget. The fried fish is super delicious. Also, they do catering. Catering so worth it. Oh most fave combo would be kare kare and pork bbq. So delicious. Its also a market so you can get your Filipino goods especially since seafood city doesnt have some brands you can find it here. Like katinko. Ooh they are always stock up with clover chips. read more

Yes, I'm a fan. This is my favorite Filipino food to go place. Depending on the time you enter, you pick up a number that might be 17, and they're still on 4, so it may take a while, especially when Nanay wants to taste some of the dishes or asks how much that costs and complains that that's too much. It's also only standing room, so you'll be wandering around the place to see what else delicious you might find. Well, it also depends what you're on the mood for because you can pick only what's on the counter. Some dishes are freshly cooked, and others might have been sitting for over an hour. These are some of my favorites: chicken BBQ sticks pork BBQ sticks ampalaya tortang talong pork adobo chicken adobo longanisa nilaga chicken tinola dinuguan pansit canton pansit malabon pansit (all of them) beef steak ginataan lanka fruit salad flan buko pandan Yes, I've bought these dishes many times, and I can heartily say that they taste like home cooking. Don't tell my Mom. I definitely will be back for more. read more

An assortment of Filipino dishes freshly cooked, hot and ready to go. They do have quite an assortment of Filipino delicacies which some I have to say is comparable to Mom's home cooking (sorry Mom) but unfortunately they do miss on some items as well which most likely have been sitting quite too long in the warming cabinet. I purchased a deep fried tilapia at "Lutong bahay" once and never did again, after getting home and served the fish with "pakbet" a traditional vegetable medley, the fish, though one side looked delicious the other was soggy and just tasted gross, I believe this fish was sitting quite too long in that deep fried dish cabinet - it was not good and ended up doing a summersault in the trash (talk about throwing away money) this experience left a bad taste in my mouth and never bought it again no matter how tempting. I do however liked their "Bistek" which is a dish of thinly sliced beef marinated in soy sauce, lemon juice with onion slices, it's yummy. The pork adobo and beef "caldereta" a traditional filipino beef stew also got top marks for me, the "pakbet" is okay meaning I had better. This place is always bustling especially with people like me who do not have the time to cook dinner after a long day at work, the peeps behind the counter are always nice but it seems they need to do something with the crowd hogging the front counter as honestly, more often than not, you can barely see what they have prepared for the day/evening as piles of people think the food line is a good place to camp, a divider rope maybe? In and Out? Just sayin. Anyway, Lutong Bahay ain't too bad amidst the afterwork frenzy, I like most of what they have and serve but I'd stay away from the fried fish or maybe have them check it first before getting it bagged and find an unpleasant surprise once you get home. read more

The workers were very kind the day I went. It was super busy but i experienced professionalism from them. On top of that, the Filipino food was amazing! Just like my Lola's. read more

Good: The food quality and portions are stellar. Bad: Customer service needs work. The girl, curly hair, young-ish, working the register, had a major chip on her shoulder and was not happy to help us. Her attitude and demeanor really put a damper on the experience. Never greeted, even had the nerve to ask us to empty the basket which she was already emptying herself. She made a strong effort to never make eye contact and never uttered a word. She tried to shove the receipt into the bag but because she shoved so hard, she had to try again. She didn't say thank you or goodbye. She needs training or go hide in the stock room. read more

I got Diarrhea from here At first, I saw the B rated health sign and thought "whatever, most Asian places have'm" then I started noticing the flies as I ordered. Then I saw batches of cooked meat prepared for the next day laying around with flies on them. YUCK. Then I saw more flies everywhere. So I ordered just to try them out. F. I got diarrhea the next day. These guys have low standards. Anyway. This place won't change and my review won't matter because most Filipinos just want cheap stuff anyway. Good luck with flies on your food. Maggots in your food!!! read more

Called to place an order for pick for the following day. The lady asked me to come in the afternoon to pay for the next day's order and that's their protocol now. So I just decided that maybe if I call to place the order on the day that I need the food maybe I don't have to go to the place and pay first since I live in Pasadena and that's time consuming to be going back and forth ...especially if that's you're only way to order because you work during the day and you live far from this Lutong Bahay grocery store . So I called and placed an order to be picked up at 3:45-4 pm today .. the lady said I have to give a down payment if the order will be picked up around 4pm. I asked her if they accept debit/ credit card so I can pay via phone and she said "No, because that's the policy." How inconvenient is that? You order food via phone to make it easier and they want you to go to the place and pay first then go back again to pick up the food? If it's the " tingi" style maybe I'll go there after work and pay right away but I'm ordering food in trays . Can they provide it right away?Most people are working and the only way they can make life easier is to call to order , pay and pick up... but, even credit or debit card they won't let you pay.. you have to go there and put a down payment in person . You are losing money and customers if you don't change your system. Think how to satisfy your customers .. don't think how to make it convenient for your business. Your customers satisfaction is the priority . If I will go there again to buy??? NAH! read more

Sometimes you learn so much more by just making a mistake... Recently I was on my trusty Yelp App looking for Filipino food and found Lutong Bahay. I liked what I saw from all the pictures and the reviews were pretty good. I guess I didn't pay close enough attention to the address (or description of the place inside a market) and ended up at another Filipino restaurant instead. Lucky for me I came back the very next day and righted every wrong from the day before. I immediately was impressed by the large line-up of delicious looking Filipino dishes inside this very tight and extremely busy corner of the market. There must have been 10 different employees busily working the giant woks and prep stations. I guess one of the employees must have seen me drooling through the windows and he immediately greeted me and proceeded to take my order. First off was the beautiful huge pile of white rice he loaded me up with (I think I actually shed a small tear) I asked if they had pork adobo and he said of course with a sly smirk. As he loaded me up with the huge side of pork adobo I asked for gravy on the rice and he happily obliged as he validated my Filipino heritage in that one small request. I also asked for Sisig and he dished up a very healthy side order as well. I watched as he wrapped up my to-go-order carefully with shrink wrap so I wouldn't loose any of that delicious sauce on the ride home. I happily took my order to the front counter where the girl then asked me for like $8. Well I could not wait till I got home so I ravaged my order right in my car that day (there is no tables or benches available) I dove straight into the luscious pork adobo and was immediately taken back to my grandmother's kitchen. The pork had just the right amount of fat to soft meat and the sauce was spot on perfect. The sisig was also flavored very well with just the right amount of onion and pepper. Overall I was incredibly happy with everything I got at Lutong Bahay, the prices were fantastic for the shear amount of food you get. The food was delicious and the service was great, This is my new local go to place when I want a taste of my heritage, Aloha read more

We stumbled upon this place when we found out our usual place shut down. What a great find! We tend to over order and everything we've gotten so far has been yummy. The food is fresh and hot and we appreciate how well every order is packed. We think the staff are awesome and friendly. read more

I had the best sisig here. My co-worker knew I was looking for the best sisig so she brought me sisig and turon from here. She said it's kapampagan style cooking. I wasn't too impressed with the turon because it was already soggy since she got it the day before. The sisig was pretty good. They had 2 different types of sisig so make sure you get the right one...the other one didnt look appetizing IMO. I went back here and got some sisig and beef steak and shrimp ukoy. Not a fan of the beef, the ukoy was not bad but the sisig was still good. I was a little disappointed with the service because the guy just looked at us weird when we asked him to help us. He said just wait (he didn't tell us to take a number) then scooped some rice and dishes. I thought he was helping other customers so I waited. He got the plate and then he started eating. Another lady was helping me and she was super sweet. Then the same guy approached me and said: you guys didn't ask permission to take picture. I said "oops sorry". Then he walked away looking kinda mad. Maybe I distracted his lunch time. I went back again to this "turo turo" place for the third time recently. I got the sisig again plus nilaga soup, ginataang baboy (pork cube in coconut milk), pork adobo and turon. I also got these sweet sticky desserts wrapped in banana leaf (suman?). Sisig was 5 stars again. The turon was surprisingly delicious. I guess my friend was right. I wasn't too crazy for the other dishes but I like going here because it's cheap and convenient. The sweet cashier lady told me I can mix and match the suman since they had cassava, ube and sweet rice. Lutong Bahay is kinda yummylicious!! read more

This is the best take-out Filipino food I've had in LA . Unlike NorCal, there isn't a dearth of very good Filipino restaurants in the SoCal area--- this place takes the cake!!! It's too bad it's only take-out but very well worth it. Be prepared to take a number, wait for a while, it's crowded. I love falling in line here and enjoying the smells while I wait my turn. The smells of garlic, fish sauce, stock that's been simmering for hours, freshly fried fish, crispy pork belly (lechon kawali) are appetizing. The chicken adobo is superior and flavorful but I wish they would debone the chicken. It's cheap for home-made tasting food. Feel free to ask what the different dishes are. Im a huge fan of the pandan dessert here: shredded young coconut, pandan jelly cubes and other jellies in cream/condensed milk. Love it here and make it here often. Note: This is also a small grocery store/market for philippine products. Im not impressed with the produce section although you can buy mangos or oranges by the box for cheap. In the meats/seafood section, you can select your fish and it will be cleaned and fried for ya. No extra charge. How cool is that! If Im in a Mexican mood, I buy my favorite salsa and eat this with tortillas or if Im feeling like having it Asian style, I whip up a sauce of chiles garlic, soy and fish sauce and chow down baby! read more

REALLY Good Filipino Fast food TO GO place. If you don't feel like cooking dinner, this is the place to go... There is always a wait, but it's worth it since, their food is very tasty. I Recomend: - Pork Adobo - Beef Steak - Sweet and sour Fish - Chicken Adobo read more

It's about time to post my second review. A time to share my experience. And calling DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH. It was such a disgusting truth to notice flies all over the used-to-be the top most Filipino turo-turo joint. It was more like a showcase of flying objects feasting in the open trays of food and no one appeared to care about it. Door was open. Welcome, maggots!!!!! read more

We placed an order 2 days ahead of time and then when we get there our food wasn't cook and ready yet..get ur shit together and please NO Filipino time! The manager(amy) didn't know they have pick up orders at 1pm and told us to wait 25 MINS? Having 2 chefs in the kitchen is not an excuse..We have visitors waiting for the food and we don't have anything at home..sorry but we're not coming back here again, bad experience and very unprofessional filipinoes..smh! PS: the address doesn't exist..I think it's a good thing for the other costumer for not going here..smh read more
