    If you are in Carson in search of Filipino food that just hit the spot, Nita's is just the place to go. The restaurant is usually very crowded during some visits. But I will say that the ambience feels like an authentic filipino restaurant experiance with all the small decor that just screams filipino and it makes you feel at home. My favorite thing to order is usually the barbecue skewers, because I love the strong smoky flavor fresh off the grill. So if you are looking forward to trying filipino cuisine, Nita's would be a really good spot. Also, me and my family often like to buy here a lot so it is one of our top places to visit for food.

    Parking lot gets full easily. The food was alright. They didn't have pork bbq when we came. The dinakdakan was good as well as the squid dish and the Sisig. The lady at the cash register tried to charge us for two chicharron ($12) when I got 1 chicharron ($6) and 1 balut which costs $4. I caught that and spoke up. She didn't give us the right amount of change either

    Service is bad. Staff in the front cashier is even worse with no manners. Messed up our order. I don't recommend it.

Great staff! My friend and I stopped into this great shop in Lomita and had a fabulous meal. I love the way they do their poke - you get to pick TWO flavors of meat! How fun! It was all fresh, good selection of ingredients and the taste in the Crunchy Tuna Garlic was superb! We also loved the Spicy Salmon Mayo. I'm a huge tocino fan so when I saw it on their menu I had to get it! I was surprised it came with two fried eggs and was a nice, big portion. We also had to try their Crispy Masubi and this was fantastic. I've had many deep fried masubi versions and this was much nicer than those. This was the best breaded type of masubi I've had. Absolutely loved it and would get it again in a second. Overall, fabulous meal at Poke & More that I would go back for.

    It's good poke. Heavily sauced, but good. Nothing to write home about. My favorite poke places are…read morestill King Poke, Jus' Poke, and Ali'i Hawaiian Grill. The menu is quite extensive. I don't trust places that have large menus because it screams "jack-of-all trades, master of none." How do you serve fresh poke while being ready to fire up a Hawaiian bbq mix plate? Parking can be challenging depending on when you go as they share a plaza. I sort of stopped going here a few months ago after they discontinued their Saturday special of buy one pound of poke, get one pound free. That deal definitely made it more worthwhile. Without that promo, the other local poke places outshine this place.

All the cakes are prebaked and packaged, but one can come in to have it decorated with custom lettering while you wait. While we waited, we also ordered two other things that we all love from here: their shanghai style egg rolls (25 pieces for $21) and their miki bihon pancit (medium, enough to feed a family, for $21). We've tried a lot of different version from different places all over, and have come to the conclusion that we like the version at Gemmae's, the best (as long as for my wife, they skip adding patis to the pancit). They also have a turo turo steam table here. The yellow curry chicken caught my eye, so got a small container of that. It was solid...first time eating yellow curry (tasted just like the japanese style) at a Filipino restaurant.

Here's what we picked up: Chocolate Chip Cookie (x2) Twin Chip Ube Cookie Cheddar Hot Dog Bun Ube Cheese Pandesal Longanisa Pandesal Garlic Peanuts Spicy Garlic Peanuts This was my first time trying this bakery since I was craving pandesal, and it did not disappoint. We also grabbed a frozen pack of Shanghai, fried it up at home, and wow, it was so good. I highly recommend picking up a pack if you visit! I love that this shop offers both savory food and sweets, so definitely come hungry. The service was quick and friendly, and the interior made me feel like I was transported straight to the Philippines. Pro tip: stop by around 1 pm-3 pm for a great experience.
