Exceptional menu! We had a huge table for family and this place was able to accommodate us all. We had platters after platters of Filipino food and we were all happy and full. Service was great too!

Thamara N.

Great service, friendly staff and attentive. Huge selection of your traditional Filipino food. We ordered a platter which was enough for 3 - 4 ppl. We got to select and ordered inihaw na manok, chicken bbq, beef tapa and a side of inihaw na talong. Ambiance is very homey, good meal.

The Baseline: For Filipino fine dining, the food the flavors need to be authentic with the flavors of the Philippines , the portions have to be properly sized, the service must be great, and the restaurant must be comfortable and stylish. Food: The food is okay and has authentic Filipino flavors. The Crispy Pata is worth it but it is a big bunch-o-pork hit. The fresh lumpia was good and the eggplant was just grilled eggplant. The garlic rice is a must if you come here and get vinegar to break up the massive pork fat hit you will get dining here. Service: We got served and it was okay service. Ambiance: It is a nice strip mall restaurant with easy parking. The bathroom wasn't immaculate and that is the nicest way of saying that.

Make Your Own Platter

Togo 3 platters around $180 with fried rice, and additional white rice with tip. Easy to do to go. Enough for 15-20 people. Did not order in advance. 20 minute wait for Pick up. Friendly staff. The crispy platter and the make your own was delicious.

Great first visit! Salo-Salo is a Filipino eatery just down the street from Los Cerritos in a small strip mall. The parking lot is tiny and shared with other businesses. The disability spaces were taken so we put up our blue placard in a regular spot and the person next to us graciously left us plenty of room. There were two servers working on Wednesday. They were so welcoming, sweet, and attentive. They opened the door for us as I was wheeling my mom in and did the same when we exited. My mom got an eggplant dish that comes with either coffee or tea. She said Salo Salo's eggplant dish was way better than the competing last place she had it at. Filipino breakfast is a treat for me once in a while. I either choose pork tocino or pork longanisa w/a well-done scrambled egg. Wow! Loved the flavor of this dish! There was nothing I needed to add to it. I asked if brown rice was possible for the garlic rice but it was not. Also chose a raspberry iced tea that came with my plate. I saved half of my dish in a to go box so that my hubby could have it later. When I opened my portable cooler when I got home later, there was a nice aroma of the tocino! Although the restroom was fairly clean, I had to flag an employee for more paper towels. There 2 soap dispensers and the bottled one wasn't working. The restaurant office has a bunch of Dodger bobbleheads in the office window and my mom took a photo by them. She likes this restaurant a lot. Overall, our food was so delicious! I imagine on the weekends that their customers have to hunt for street parking since their lot is tiny. Will very likely return during the week sooner than later. Looking forward to trying their longanisa breakfast!

Salo-Salo Grill is one of our go-to places for Filipino food in the area. We usually order their pancit miki bihon, which everyone in our family enjoys. This last visit, we ordered their grilled meats platter, which had different types of meat (some more tender than others though). We also had their crispy pata, which was just okay. We ended the meal with leche flan, which was really good. This no-frills restaurant is good for families, as most dishes are served family-style. Service is friendly but sometimes can be a hit-or-miss, depending if they are busy or not. Parking is relatively easy as they have a large lot shared with other establishments in that complex.

I LOVE that SaloSalo serves ALL DAY BREAKFAST - Longanisa MY FAVE - not many Filipino restaurants offer that - especially during dinner time. PLUS the service / waiters are much friendlier and nicer there than similar places like Gerry's. The prices are also competitive (If not lower) than other restaurants here. I found my new favorite Pinoy restaurant!

Garlic Fried Rice and Crispy Bangus
Nico C.

Have been going here for years and can't believe I've forgotten to leave a review. This is my favorite Filipino spot in SoCal - the bangus, lumpia, the garlic fried rice, the pork adobo, everything just hits right. The waitstaff is fantastic, very attentive, refilling drinks before you even have to ask. Parking can be a bit challenging during the rush for lunch and dinner, but worth it.

Beefsteak Tagalog
Ren M.

This place is a staple classic in the Cerritos / Artesia area! If you're looking for Filipino food, Salo Salo will hit the spot. My girlfriend and I ordered the sizzling beefsteak Tagalog, adobo fried rice, lumpia Shanghai, sizzling sisig, and pancit guisado. All tasted very authentic and prepped well! I wanted to give my girlfriend a Filipino restaurant experience and this fufilled that. The beefsteak was a bit overcooked, but overall the dish tasted great. Lumpia was a bit dry on the inside but served fresh and hot. The pancit was actually our favorite thing we ordered - served hot and steamy with pancit noodles sauced down to perfection. Sisig was really vinigar-y but we love that so that was not an issue. The adobo fried rice I feel like could've been better but it wasn't bad! Been going to this place since I was a kid and it still hits the same. I would recommend giving it a try before judging it based on the star rating.

When craving for authentic Filipino food, Salo Salo is the place to go! It's at a nice corner lot with plenty of parking. Even though their menu was extensive, we only focused on their seafood dishes since it was Good Friday '26. We ordered the combo plates; the servings were huge! Our meal was delicious & tasty but we had no room for desserts. We will definitely go back & try their other dishes plus the sweets!

Adobo Fried Rice
Nis J.

I will say the service was pretty fast, and the food was hot and fresh. I liked the lumpiang shanghai as it had the right meat to crop one's ratio. The Chop suey was fresh and sauce was made to perfection. The only thing I didn't like was the adobo fried rice. Just tasted like regular rice with soy sauce. Otherwise the ambiance is outdated but the food and service was great.

Combo platter with lechon kawali, bbq chicken, fish, and inihaw na talong + fresh coconut + kare kare
Carlo G.

Authentic Filipino food, perfect for family style! I came in on a Tuesday noon, so there wasn't a lot of people dining in. I liked the interior of this restaurant, it was decorated with the essence of Filipino culture with the bamboo and beautiful mural. The servers were also nice too and accommodated me and my family well. I came with my aunt and uncle and we ordered the make your own platter with lechon kawali, chicken bbq, fish, and inihaw na talong. Everything was cooked well and super flavorful - it was delicious and filling! My favorite was the lechon kawali which was soft, crispy, and very flavorful. It was up to par with some I've had in the Philippines. I also loved the bagoong with the talong, a great combination. We also got the kare-kare which was great as well! I'm not normally a fan of kare-kare, but this one was great! The flavor wasn't too strong which I liked and the oxtail meal was nice and tender. I also loved the veggies that came with it. Lastly, the fresh coconut juice was yummy and refreshing! This one was actually fresh and I loved scooping the meat from the insides! This is a solid spot if you're in the area and looking for authentic Filipino food to share with a group!

The egg noodle options has an extra $1 charge. You also have an option to order it dry or in the broth. We ordered the small rice noodles dry. The dry option comes with the broth on the side, along with a giant beef rib bone. The highlight for me here is the broth, as it is super tasty, and the beef rib was super tender. I prefer the dry noodles since you can add additional seasoning to them; my favorite is the chili oil, which was quite spicy. ​The rice porridge is different from the ones you get at dim sum. It is lighter, with the rice grains still pretty intact. Like with the noodle dish, I really liked the broth and it goes well with the house-made breadsticks. The pork liver was a bit too overcooked for my taste, though. ​Overall, the dishes are pretty solid. Will come back again.

The best late night comfort food! Soup Shop has good food, and they're open late. It's no wonder…read morethere's always people waiting for a table outside. We were craving some warm pho on a cold night, and Soup Shop sounded like the perfect spot. The plaza Soup Shop is located in is usually super crowded, but if you go after 9pm when most of the other restaurants and shops are closed, you'll find plenty of parking. Write your name down on the waiting list at the front podium and then wait for your name to be called. They have a few seats to wait right outside the door. Once we were seated, we were given menus. I really like that their menu has a lot of large photos of the dishes, so you know what you're getting! Once we ordered, the food came out pretty quickly despite being busy. For appetizers, we ordered the Crunchy Pork "Bao" since it sounded unique. Inside the bao is pork shoulder, mushroom, Vietnamese sausage, and quail egg. The outside has a thin, perfectly crispy layer that gives a nice little crunch when you bite into it. Really enjoyed these and would recommend! We also got the Crusted Parmesan Cauliflower. Not sure what's in the sauce, but it's sweet, tangy, and delicious! It's also topped with fried onion, cilantro, cucumber, and parmesan cheese. Also a winner! For entrees, we got the Chicken Pho and the Pho Ribeye. For the chicken Pho, you can get it with thigh or breast meat. I got it with breast meat, and they gave a good amount of meat! A little dry, but I appreciated that it was nice and lean. The flavor of the soup is really good. Pho Ribeye was also tasty! Hit the spot.

After seeing the raving reviews of their garlic noodles, I convinced my husband and our daughter to…read morecome dine here with me while we're in the area. We arrived a little before 7pm on a Saturday. We're surprised to see so many Asian restaurants at this location! While the parking lot in the front was packed, we're able to find some empty spots at the back. The inside of the restaurant looked nice and modern. There's no wait and we got seated immediately. It appeared that their tables didn't have designated servers. While we could get help from any server, it could be quite confusing when we got asked the same questions from different people. Service was friendly, anyway. We each ordered a different garlic noodle. I had the Pan Seared Salmon with Garlic Parmesan Cheese sauce. It came with yummy Grilled Cajun Zucchini. The salmon was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside while moist inside. It's tasty on its own even without the delicious garlic parmesan sauce. The noodle was garlicky and flavorful. I had a small piece of my husband's filet mignon beef, and it's pretty good with a kick to it. Our daughter's Sauteed Veggies & Tofu looked good as well, but she said the sauce from the vegetables made her noodles soggy and not as desirable, and she preferred the noodles on our plates better. Our fellow Yelpers didn't disappoint, now we know where to go next time we're craving for garlic noodles.

What I Ordered: Juicy Pork Dumplings ($11.99)…read morePan Fried Chinese Chives Pork Shrimp dumplings ($12.99) Wonton in Spicy Sauce ($11.50) Chicken Fried Rice ($12.99) Dry fried string bean ($13.50) Orange Chicken ($14.99) Kung Pao Shrimp ($18.99) Dan dan noodle ($13.99) Beef roll pancake ($12.99) Spring rolls ($3.50) Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba Food: The Pan Fried Chinese Chives Pork Shrimp Dumplings. I absolutely loved the crispy bottom layer because it added such a satisfying crunch to every bite. The inside stayed really juicy and flavorful with a good balance of pork, shrimp, and chives. The Juicy Pork Dumplings had soup inside, which was rich and savory. I've had soup dumplings before where the wrapper breaks apart too easily, but these held together nicely while still staying soft and delicate. The Wonton in Spicy Sauce was my personal favorite from the entire meal. The spicy sauce flavor was savory with a little sweetness. I'm typically not good with spice, so this is at a spice level that should be very manageable for everyone. I absolutely loved the spicy sauce, so I started putting it on everything. Definitely put the sauce on the chicken fried rice! The Chicken Fried Rice was a great dish to pair with everything else that we ordered. With several orders of entrees, a solid rice dish is a must order for any Chinese meal. The rice had a nice savory flavor that I enjoyed, and there was a generous amount of chicken mixed throughout the dish. I even asked the waitress if they do anything special with the fried rice because it tasted better than many other restaurants. It felt comforting and balanced compared to some of the heavier dishes. The Dry Fried String Beans were cooked perfectly with a slight crispness while still being tender. The garlic and seasoning gave them so much flavor that it honestly didn't even feel like I was eating vegetables. I do have to note that these were very much on the salty side, so if you don't like foods that are too salty, I would choose a different dish. The Orange Chicken was really crispy and juicy, which I appreciated because soggy orange chicken is always disappointing to me. The sauce had a nice citrus flavor while still keeping that classic sweet savory taste. The Spring Rolls were simple with vegetable filling on the inside with a crispy outside. I would try a different appetizer next time. The Kung Pao Shrimp was packed with flavor and had a really satisfying combination of textures. The shrimp were tender, and the peanuts added a great crunch to the dish. I thought the sauce had a really nice balance of spice and savoriness without becoming overwhelming. Another dish I really enjoyed was the Beef Roll Pancake. The pancake itself was nice and chewy throughout each bite. The sliced beef with green onions and sauce all wrapped together made every bite really flavorful and satisfying. For drinks, I ordered the Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba. I really liked that the jasmine tea flavor was noticeable instead of being overly sweet like some milk teas can be. The boba had a soft chewy texture, and the drink itself paired perfectly with the spicy and savory dishes from the meal. Staff: All of the staff members were quick and friendly Ambiance: Indoor seating only. A good amount of parking in the parking lot that is shared with other shops in the plaza.

At first, I wasn't sure what to expect, but the overall experience was better than I anticipated. The seasoning was a little strong, and some dishes had a fairly familiar, standardized taste. Nothing was bad, and everything was prepared well, but I do feel a little disappointed when the authentic flavors of traditional Chinese food become less noticeable. There were four of us, and we ordered about eight or nine of their most popular dishes. My parents really enjoyed the food. I have worked in China before, so I may be a little more sensitive and particular when it comes to Chinese food. Overall, the restaurant has good reviews, the prices are reasonable, and it was a pretty good dining experience.

My partner and his dad have also ordered the Beef of Two, which was perfect for sharing and another great option. The restaurant is small but very efficient, and they do a great job of getting guests seated and served quickly.
