This place surprise me. Although it says take out only there is a place for you to sit and dine in albeit it on a to go styrofoam plate. It didn't matter, if they served their food on a banana leaf I would still scarf it all down. The food was fresh hot and the place was busy. So you know the food turned over. They have all the typical Filipino staple food. The place was clean and the inside was relatively new i.e table and chairs. I ordered the three item (your choice) combo which included caldereta beef steak and picadillo on the side I ordered one big @$$ lumpia serve with vinegar and two turon. The beef steak had a dollar upcharge...which was ok. The serving size was big so much so that the hubs and I just shared and we both got our fill. Go try it...it's goooooood read more

We really enjoyed this place. The few times we went it was packed. Service was excellent and food was really good. We will surely go back again when we travel to Arizona read more

I remember this place when they were starting. Same taste till now. If you're looking for comfort Filipino food, this is the place to go. Try their lechon kawali. read more

I haven't had much Filipino food in my life so I don't have much to compare it to, but this was a really cool spot for quick ready-to-order food. The prices are also extremely affordable for the portion size. I just got the 1 entree with a mix of rice and egg noodles. There were 6ish pork/chicken/beef options to choose from. The staff was helpful explaining what each dish was. I went with a chicken curry. The curry was pretty good and the chicken was very tender and juicy. The flavor was a bit more mellow than I was expecting though, it could have used more of a punch. I also tried some of the beef entree that another person in my group ordered and I liked it more than the curry. I'd definitely stop by for lunch again and give it another shot! read more

Really good food and customer service! The lady was sooo sweet and kind. It was my first time trying Filipino food so she recommended Pork Adobo and that tasted amazing. The price is really good too. For $11 they give you a LOT of food. And I'm a big eater and I still had a lot of food left over from my 2 plate entree! If this is also your first time trying Filipino food, I'd recommend getting 1 scoop of rice and 1 scoop of Pancit. I'd also recommend getting their Lumpias, Kare Kare, Lechon Kawali, Pork Adobo, and Sigsig. We will be coming back here and I will try their seafood options next time. Amazing food and amazing customer service! :) read more

My wife and I came here at 11:00 AM on a Sunday. Definitely get here a bit early, it got busy soon after we arrived (line almost out the door). Food is served cafeteria style. It would have been nice if the dishes were labeled, especially for those that are unfamiliar with Filipino cuisine. I recognized at least half the dishes. I was a bit disappointed in the pancit, it was bland. Everything else was delicious! The dinuguan, kaldereta, adobo, and turon were ALMOST as good as my mom's ; ) I'll definitely be coming back when craving some Filipino food! read more

Had the day off, after the holiday so a friend and I decided to meet up at this place for lunch. We have been wanting to try this place for some time; unfortunately, the business hours make it difficult to get here in time. While we were immediately greeted upon entering, we had to take a moment to review their menu/pricing to figure how to order food. I opted to try their 1 entree (w/Pancit) and a side order of Kewali Lechon (the only way to order it) and a Lumpiang Prito (vegetable egg roll). My friend ordered their 2 item combo with Pancit and chicken adobo and a side order of their Lumpiang Shanghai (8 pcs per order). This is probably one of the best tasting Pancit (which had chicken in it), it was cooked and seasoned well and the egg roll, along with the Lumpia Shanghai were all seasoned well. The ladies working behind the counter were all friendly and professional. I would highly recommend this place and will be back myself to try other things. read more

This is the first time I've experienced Filipino cuisine, so the pressure was on. Either I would be a fan for life, or would never set foot in another Filipino restaurant again. This experience made me a fan for life. I was to meet my daughter here for lunch who was running late. This gave me a chance to check out the menu. They have 2 hot tables. Theirmenu is posted on the wall, but nothing on it was familiar so I was at a loss. The lady at the counter asked if I needed help with the menu sensing my inept knowledge of Filipino cuisine. She explained what everything was and what it consisted of. I was able to sample anything from the hot table. This is key to a good experience here. I would not want to pay for something i disliked. I sampled a bit of sauce from a dish that was fish marinated and cooked in a vinegar sauce. I loved it so that's what I ordered. It is a full half of tilapia eyeballs and tail included. I learned that this style of fish is called escabeche. The fish is garnished with strips of fresh ginger and slices of egg plant. All entrees are served with 2 scoops of rice. I persuaded the server to put a couple spoonsful of sauce on the rice. The fish was perfectly cooked. It fell off the bone and was perfectly marinaded. The rise was tender and not sticky. The marinade complimented the rice perfectly. I also ordeder a specialty beverage, sago and gulaman.This is a beverage made of  sago, small gummy-like balls and gulaman an agar-agar or the Filipino gelatin in a syrup made from brown sugar. So, when you put these simple ingredients together and chill it, then it becomes an unforgettable beverage. All in all I'm impressed with this cuisine and will be back to sample more of their delicious delicacies. read more

When I walked in, there are many Ate cooking and the place was packed. I wanted to bring a taste of Filipino food to Thanksgiving since it was my boyfriend's first holiday away from home. I tried to order Kare Kare but this place was out both the day I ordered and for Thanksgiving pre orders. I opted for pork adobo which was about all I could get. Let me tell you, it was AMAZING! The meat was tender with rich flavors. The pan was $90 but it was the hit of our thanksgiving meal and fed so many people. You can opt for smaller portions at very reasonable prices but for holidays it's catering sizes only. Order early for any special occasions . We will be back often! read more

I've been coming here for a long time and the food never disappoints. I've been to many Filipino food places in AZ and Nanay's is by far the best one for me. The staff is so welcoming and nice; I love the cafeteria style and it very much reminds me of the turo-turo restaurants back home. I always look forward to coming here, I love it so much! read more

I was excited to try this place based on the reviews. We always pass through Arizona on our way to California to visit family and are always on the lookout for Filipino food. We paid $64 for 3 meals and lechon kawali as a side order and we're very disappointed. Most of the dishes either tasted bland or were missing the authentic flavor. The kare-kare didn't have the peanut flavor, the dinuguan tasted like boiled meat with dark brown sauce, and the sisig tasted like bell peppers. I have tried so much Filipino food, being from the Philippines and living in CA and TX. This is the first time I left a restaurant feeling hungry. We have so many leftovers and couldn't finish them. I give 2 stars for the melon juice; it was very refreshing. read more

We really enjoy eating and getting catered food from Nanny's. Recently ordered some Pork Adobo, fried lumpia, and pancit for Thanksgiving. We had a variety of dishes severed for family and friends to celebrate and give thanks for this year. The pork adobo was so tender. It went well with the pancit and rice. There were a lot of people that had the same plan to order out during the holiday that I had to wait to get my order. At the restaurant it's a typical sit down and it can occupy large groups if it's needed. read more

I've lived in the area for 15+ years and have heard about this place but never tried it. I'm Filipina so very particular about eating Filipino food that isn't home cooked. It turns out my daughter knows the owner's daughter, so we gave it a try to day since we were craving it. OMG...great service, very clean and AMAZING fresh cooked food!!! I specifically went for the Lechon Kawali (fried pork belly) and it's the best I've had here in the US. This is now one of my fave go-to's. read more

Nanays used to be our go to spot for Filipino food at an affordable price. But unfortunately that is Not the case anymore. Every time we would come in we loved being able to pick our food and they usually always had great desserts at the end such as turon or halo halo for example. I always stuck with turon. My personal favorite since As far back as i can remember. So many great combo options for a quick lunch. One person can ruin your entire experience and feeling as a whole. We were going to use them initially for my baby sprinkle back in February but one phone call destroyed their relationship with us. Now i have grown up majority of my life with my moms family constantly providing for friends/family/ the church etc so that meant heaping amounts of pancit, lumpia, lechon etc. I've never once in my entire life heard one of my family members ever complain and say "too hard to make" Not once. We asked for a tray of lumpia for our party and because we refused to pay for it all up front over the phone they said it's too hard to make. My husband agreed to half if he could pay in person but she was making everything so difficult over the phone. It's not worth pulling teeth over when there's other Filipino businesses that will happily take our money. So we ended up ordering from "At my Place" down the street and they never made us pay anything up front. Looks like toduken and a few other spots will be the only spots to be getting our money from now on. read more

The food is watered down. The bistek we had must have been cooked and recooked over and over again because the texture of the beef is different. Also, different entrees tasted the same. I have tried several Filipino restaurants, but I know that I'm not going back to this one. I'm just not crazy about the taste of their food. The best Filipino food is food cooked by people from Luzon. read more

It is kind of like buffet style except they scoop the food for you. You tell them what you want and how big of a plate/bowl. My plate : Chicken Curry & Steak with Rice Bf's plate : Chicken Curry, pork and pork with rice The food portions were pretty big. I had to bring most of my food home. The taho was pretty good too with the tapioca toppings. It wasn't too sweet by the time I ate it. It had cooled down. They have a water dispenser near the register. Restrooms inside as well. They seem to only have indoor seating which is nice. I can imagine when it gets busy, it will be hard to find seating. read more

Food was made with love and was delicious, but more importantly the service was phenomenal. Great family style restaurant

This is ONE of my favorite Filipino restaurants in AZ. Unfortunately they are too far from me that I can only visit them on the weekends, otherwise I would be there every other day! Super flavorful, decent prices, variety of food & it's all fresh!!! The service is good. The ambiance, busy lol If you're lucky, you'll find a seat. Highly recommend this place!!! read more

Food is always delicious. Adobo, pancit & lumpia are my go to dishes. I also love the cantaloupe drink. Service is always great. Love the music they have playing too read more

Great food, and it's a nice and clean establishment. Reminds of you of entering a traditional Filipino establishment. You grab a serving tray and pick you entrees. Good customer service and they take time walking through your options. My suggestions are trying the dinuguan - if you like things like bone marrow, this is something right up your alley. And the halo halo dessert - picture shaved ice and bubble tea having a baby.. with ice cream on top. Both are must haves when available and when you dine a proper Filipino restaurant. Stop in and grab some dishes, you won't be disappointed. read more

It used to be a lot better but ever since this year, they raised the prices and the service/food is lacking. I barely got any food for what I paid for and I know they needed to raise the prices due to supply issues but it was disappointing. There's no trays either which makes it hard to transport your food to your table. We had to take trips from the counter to the table. read more

Best Filipino food in the valley. Service is always friendly. The hours are sometimes tough as they close at 5.

Food is good and prepared cafeteria style. Overall it's good for a Filipino restaurant. I enjoyed the Afritada and Inilang (not sure I spelled that correctly or I heard the name right) and the Shanghai lumpia. But the chicken and pork adobo is way to oily and the pansit had a flavor I couldn't get used to. Overall, food is good and will come here again. read more

Nanay's - Chicken Curry - Filipino Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Food wasn't all that. With all the hype I had high expectations. I've had much better Filipino food elsewhere.

Family-owned business with very nice employees. The lady that helped me was patient with all my questions and sold me more than I was planning to buy. Wouldn't say it is cheap, but I was excited carrying out all my new goodies to try. Maybe it is just preference, but I wasn't a fan of the chicken curry. It tasted heavy and oily. The bilo bilo was pretty good, not overly sweet, but the cassava cake, which is topped with baked flan, did not taste fresh. It looked much better than it tasted sadly. read more

Nanay's is probably the closest thing to Filipino cuisine in the Metro Phoenix area (at least close to Gilbert). The location is definitely an adventure, but it's cool inside for the hotter days. It's mainly more "turo turo" style (point point), but well worth it. The servers are great, efficient & know both English & Tagalog. read more

Their prices aren't excessive and the staff is pleasant enough but there is no information on what the ingredients are in the foods offered. I tried the pork adobo which tasted very good but more than half of it was fat and totally inedible! They BLAST music non stop and THE NOISE LEVEL IS EAR-SPLITTING - drowning out all conversation even with people sitting at the same table.I didn't enjoy the meal and will not go back. read more
