    Sizzling sisig bangus to go. Made fresh to order. It was so delicious. Definitely give this a try if you love bangus (milkfish).
    Kevin A.

    Got the sizzling sisig bangus awhile back forgot to leave the review. Food is great. Service is amazing even if im ordering to go. Ambiance is quaint it has the home feel or like those places in the Philippines. Makes feel homey even just waiting for my to go order. I do recommend getting some food here. Its all made to order. Its not those places where they make a massive amount and have on warmers.

    It was cold and we were craving for hot soup. Ordered the sinigang na bangus with shrimp and it was very satisfying. The broth was perfect! The tokwa't baboy was crispy with a good blend of the vinegar, onions and soy sauce. Very delicious and will definitely come back again.

    Not sure why their name in this listing is spelled as one word. It should be 2 words: Miles Bistro. Casual Filipino joint in somewhat quite Filipino Milpitas. Demographically this place fits like a glove. Been in twice and both times 100% Filipino customers. I can understand the language, but I can't really speak it, so I love to hear all the amusing convos in here. The nature of the food here for the most part is family style portioning. I think they may have a small section for individual rice plates, but any other a la carte items will be in huge portioning, like meant for 3-4 people to share. We once came as a party of 2, ordered 3 things and we had so many leftovers that I don't even think we dented half of it whilst there. The dishes are also kinda pricey, but if you do factor in how many meals you can get out of a dish, then it isn't as daunting. Crispy Pata ($32/5*) I ordered this once for take-out and took it to my cousin's house for a celebratory dinner. This is somewhat of a hardcore dish as it is whole pig's foot/knuckle that is deep fried to a glorious crispness. Theirs is a really legit version as it is perfectly seasoned/salted and the contrast of super crisp skin/exterior and tender meat with gelatinous attachments just makes this a very ethnic eater's dish. I'm pretty sure that this is a very popular dish here and rightfully so. This is good enough to be my anchor dish here. Tortang Talong ($16/4*) This is basically an egg battered and fried eggplant. This is a meatless version but they do give you 2 whole Asian eggplants for this price. It is pretty plain but nicely executed. Beef Brisket Kare Kare ($31/4*) Just okay to me as the sauce didn't wow me, not peanut-y enough. The sauce also had a tinge of sweetness that I was not expecting. The beef was indeed tender and beefy and I think this is the first time I actually seen brisket get used. But the best versions I've had for this dish uses oxtails, but for some reason I am seeing it less and less these days. I did like how they put in a good amount of veggies in though to balance out the richness of the dish. Lechon Kawali ($26/3.5*) I think this is the most I've ever paid for this dish. But like I mentioned they did give us a lot, like enough for at least 4 peeps. It is nicely crisped and the oil quality was decent, not overly dark or old tasting, good fry technique. But it was a tad under seasoned, and surprised me quite a bit, since the Crispy Pata dish I ordered another time was seasoned well. But find a sauce to dip this into and most should get resolved. This resto is in a very Filipino centric complex with a Seafood City, Goldilocks and Valerio's. So if ever back on this block, I would opt here than say any of those mentioned for a hot entree or 2 to take home.

    Crispy Pata (they ask if they want us to cut it im like sure :)
    ezie r.

    Service 10/10 Food is 4/5 So the pancit to be honest was ok nothing to special . The Crispy Pata was delicious and perfectly cook with the sauce on the side with rice yummy . I a mango float shake it was pretty good tbh kinda too sweet in my opinion . The portions were big and decent . The service was nice our server was a husband and wife and they were nice . I feel like this place gets overlook because there's a Max but I rather take my money here in Miles Bistro because Max is good but it's overhyped and will definitely come back see more dishes .

    We visited this place after going to a fabric store in San Jose. At first we were going to go to Max restaurant next door but they don't open until 11:30 and decided to walk around and find somewhere place to eat nearby since we were extremely hungry. We ran into this place by accident and thought it was a Chinese restaurant, but saw that most pictures displayed outside the windows are Filipino food and decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed and glad we ate there instead of going to Max Restaurant. The food was awesome, especially the Crispy Pata Kare-Kare combination. It was so good that some of us had ordered it again for to go. All of the food that we ordered was good. A little pricey ($30 for the crispy Pata kare kare) but the serving was good for four people. We will definitely go back there the next time we are looking for fabrics in San Jose.

    The food here is great, it reminds me of my mom's home cooked Filipino. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and attentive. I came alone, but I would bring friends and family to here 10/10!

    Crispy Pata
    Dong Wook C.

    I love their crispy pata. So unhealthy but sooooo good. Yes, worth risking a heart attack for. In all seriousness, their crispy pata is reasonably priced and fried to perfection. They have 2 sizes. Also picked up some lumpia Shanghai and their chicken wings. Definitely worth the visit. Great value for the amount of food. Simple and casual interior. Staff are very friendly.

It is such a blessing to have it close by. I can pop in anytime a craving hits for their pork menudo, sizzling sisig, or pansit palabok. Must-try staples include Chicken or Pork Adobo (a rich savory stew), Lumpiang Shanghai (crispy spring rolls), and Pancit Bihon (classic Filipino noodles). Be sure to finish with halo-halo, a popular shaved ice dessert. My family literally drives up from SoCal just to eat here. It is THAT good.

We first came here on a Sunday for lunch, and didn't realize they have a Sunday buffet so the place was very busy. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated. We didn't go for the buffet, but ordered a few dishes to try and wow were we impressed. Their menu is a book, but there's a picture of every dish along with a good description, so ordering was made easy. We enjoyed our dining experience so much that we came back again the following week with the whole family for dinner. The place is very simple and homey. There are lots for large round tables, and they filled up quickly. Our favorites were: + Original Sisig Kapampangan - this came out on a sizzling plate, and the crispy bits at the bottom were fought after. You can choose your spice level. + Chicken Halang - Halang - chopped up chicken simmered in coconut broth. + Pancit Bihun Guisado - this had so many yummy things in it, including pork, shrimp, quail eggs, squid balls, and veggies. + Ginataang Green Beans At Kalabasa - green beans in a coconut sauce with pumpkin squash and lots of other goodies. + Lumpia and chicken wings - favorite appetizers I also really liked that the staff didn't "own" a table. It seemed whoever was available, came by our table and served us. Looking forward to coming back and trying more items from their book.

The dinakdakan was really good, with a nice sweet and savory taste. The customer service was good, but overall it was slow, so it helps to plan for a bit of a wait. On top of that, the surroundings were clean, and there's plenty of parking.

Was excited to find out another Filipino business taking over. I've had my fair share of tusok-tusok experiences in California and I mean it when I say that I am happy this place opened up. I think prices are pretty fair for a bbq stick in the Bay Area. They carry pork bbq, hot dogs, intestine, kwek-kwek, bettamax, pig ears, etc! Although I wish they had fishball or squid ball for even more variety but thats ok. They provide a marinade to brush on while you grill your own BBQ and provide vinegar and another sweet sauce for you to dip it in post-grilling. Overall, the flavor is really good and you can't really go wrong. They carry other items on the menu in which they serve to you such as sisig, pares, siaomai, empanada (available weekends only), lumpia, melon juice, etc. And yes they have rice! I wish I took pictures of the food we ordered but the kids got to it first while we were bbqing. We went on a Thursday evening so it wasn't too crowded but they still kept the party going with karaoke and music. I could imagine the place being full on weekends. The parking could also get tricky in that area if full too. They take cash, Zelle, and card (with surcharge). The grill is located inside in the center of the restaurant so it gets pretty smoky inside even with all the doors open and vents running. So expect to smell like delicious bbq coming out lol.
