I forgot to hit "post" from 2020... Update: I finally came inside the shop to order (instead of UberEats/Door Dash). The gentleman who took my order was very kind! The shop is very clean too! After he took my order, he informed me that he will deliver it to my car, once my order is ready. They have an organized system! Don't forget to tip them... they are all working hard. Especially during this pandemic. New food that I ordered: Chicken wing Silog read more

The coziest homemade Filipino food. It feels like coming home after a long day, with your family waiting for you at the dinner table. That's exactly how this place made me feel. My Filipino ex introduced me to Filipino cuisine, and I've missed it so much since our relationship ended. Coming here brought back that feeling, it tasted like nostalgia, comfort, and love. The service was amazing, and the portion sizes were just right, not too much, and not too little. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Halo Halo - was good but could be better especially if there was added pinipig & kahit isang scoop ng mango/ube/buko pandan ice cream for more flavor! Gulaman - I got confused cause the picture on the board showed a Buko Pandan and I assumed thats what they called gulaman, but ended up given the black jelly gulaman drink which wasn't bad! I didn't bother to change it cause it was already made. It was a bit sweet but once the ice started melting it became more refreshing to drink! I'll have to try the buko pandan next time :) We also enjoyed the hopia that they sell as well that's pre-packaged. Staff was very friendly with greeting us going in and out of their restaurant which we appreciated! We'll have to try the food next time as I really wanna try the crispy karekare :) read more

Got delivery, I called ahead to ask if certain orders come with sauces and when I received my order, the lady gave me extra vinegar, bagoong, sweet and sour. She was so polite and professional. The food was delicious. Kare kare is my go to meal! Delicious meat, tender and crunchy, all the vegetables were cooked perfectly. I do wish they'd add more peanut sauce. The savory longanisa was good, but could improve in flavor, still yum. The egg was perfect. The lumpia was a little overcooked but great crunch and flavor read more

After being out on a cold night, I wanted some comforting Filipino food. I'm so happy I came upon this place because it was exactly what I was looking for. I tend to be picky when it comes to Filipino food because I'm Filipino and I'm used to home style cooking, for fast food this place did not disappoint. I ordered mostly a la carte and the portions were generous. I ordered the rellenong bangus, pork sisig, palabok and 1 combo of dinuguan with rice. Everything was warm, fresh and delicious. Flavoring was on point and not too salty. The meats were unctuous and the fish had a nice bite. The service was quick and to the point, I definitely appreciate then taking my order 30 minutes before closing because it looked like most things were put away for the night. It's a small spot best for takeout but they do have a tidy little nook if you choose to dine in. I would love to come back and try their breakfast combinations, they had a nice variety to choose from. read more

IMHO My husband wanted Crispy Pata for his birthday lunch, after we'd eaten it in Maui. Happily, he found Tindahan while researching, and bonus that it was on our side of town! We ordered online and we picked up 30 minutes later. The Crispy Pata was $26.50 and the Pinoy Pansit Bihon was $17.99. Portions were generous! Definitely bang-for-your-buck here! The pata was crispy crunchy, and gooey fatty. The meat was tender and yummy dipped in the vinegar soy sauce. We'll be eating leftovers for days! I think it has mainly take-out customers, but I did see two tables in the corner for dine-in. You can also find some Filipino food staples and snacks to purchase. Check it out for friendly service and delicious Pinoy comfort food! read more

We had a catering lunch with them and we were all pleasantly surprised! We ordered individual boxed lunches of 4 varieties: chicken adobo, pork adobo, sweet sausage, and vegetarian which is Filipino style noodle. All bento came with boiled mixed frozen veggie, scrabbled egg and a fried egg, a sticky rice flour cake and lots of white rice. The sweet sausage tasted good and juicy! There are also 2 kinds of fried rolls, a vegetarian spring roll and the lumpia meat roll. We like them both, can't complain! I hope we cater from them again! read more

Looking for a royal bibingka? A Filipino delicacy of rice cake much like mochi cake with cheese on top. I've bought them many times at this store as gifts to friends and family simply because I don't have the time to make it. If you're on a rush and don't have time to make some of it come here it's pretty good. They also sell meals for takeout where you just have to point which one you want in the array of viands and selections. They also sell, packaged Filipino delicacies like seaweed and jams that provides childhood nostalgia when living in the Philippines. The place is small, which is right next to the Vietnamese grocery store. The people are nice typical for a Filipino establishment. If you're looking for an Asian food fair without rude Asians, come visit the place and try the food and leave with a smile. read more

Tindahan Pinoy - Lechonsilog - Filipino Near Me - San Jose, California

Came here with some friends this morning for breakfast. We got all 5 of the different ones and some lumpia. Milk fish was a bit dry. Lechon was also a bit dry. The Filipino sausage was probably my favorite. Also liked the sisig. That was delicious. Good flavor. The lumpias were so cute and yummy (seemed a bit over priced though for these. $13.99 for 15 pieces and the pieces are very small) Garlic rice was yummy! They give you decent portion. Service was nice. The worker was very pleasant. This is more of a take out place. There isn't much seating. One round table with two chairs and then We had to ask them if we could use this other table that had their stuff on it and they were nice enough to let us. No tables outside either. read more

Tindahan Pinoy is located in a strip mall that has Pho Dao, Đại-Thành Supermarket, Popeye's Louisiana Chicken, T4, etc. The parking isn't too bad. Small place with a couple of shelves full of merchandise for sale. They have a steam table for some food and a kitchen in the back to quickly cook other foods. I came in here to try their breakfast meal of two scoops of garlic rice, a fried egg, tomato & cucumber slices and one meat (Tocino) (3.5/5). It was prepared in about 5-6 minutes. It's usually crowded but not at the time I visited. read more

I ordered this food to go so I can't say much about the ambiance or service. I ultimately picked this restaurant because I saw that they served arroz caldo and that's one of my go to dishes when I'm feeling under the weather. Arroz caldo: 4.5/5, I really really enjoyed this. It tastes very similar to how my mom makes it which I love. I loved the strong ginger taste and the portion was pretty big! Sinigang: 4/5, There was a good amount of pork and veggies. The pork ribs were my favorite part. I wish there was more meat on the pork belly. The vegetables were cooked perfectly. I hope I can come here to eat someday! Def tastes like home cooking. read more

I was craving Filipino breakfast and visited this place. Glad I did! Food: I ordered isda silog, rellieno, and lomi so I had breakfast and lunch. It was delicious! The isda had a good crisp and the rellieno was full of flavor. All meals are enough for 2 people, I honestly had enough for dinner and the next day. They also offer a la carte if you have parties. Service is great, it's small business, and there are a couple of chairs and tables if you want to eat there. It's mostly like a grab-and-go store! (hence the name tindahan haha) Parking is easy and I'm always able to find parking when I visit here. It's right next to a supermarket, so there is ample parking. I waited about 15-20 minutes for my food since they make the silog fresh. Not too bad. Overall, I would definitely come back if I'm craving Filipino food! read more

I had the Tapsilog delivered. It was fresh and delicious. The egg was cooked perfectly and the Tag (beef) was flavorful and tender.

Low quality pork with lots of fat and skin used to stir fry with the pancit...$18 not worth for the portion of noodles and fat...will not order again read more

When you're craving Filipino breakfast and don't want to cook this is your place! They have all kinds of log dishes! Serving size is just right and price is fair. This time around I got the crispy pasta and dinaguan aka chocolate meat. This is a take out place so you can place order online and pick up or order and wait. Crispy pasta is nice and crispy tender inside. First time trying the dinaguan and it just the way I like it. Will have to come back to try the dakdakan. Darn I forgot to take a picture! read more

Stopped by Tindahan Pinoy since I was in the area grabbing dinner for my toddler. Located in the plaza with Dai Thanh Supermarket, on N. Capital Ave, you can navigate this eatery by its happy emoji logo. Tindahan Pinoy offers an array of authentic Filipino dishes such as: corned beef, milkfish, roasted pork, sausages, spam [IYKYK], noodle dishes, & traditional desserts. Being an obsessed lover of Filipino longanisa, I jump on the rare opportunities I get to enjoy this dish and with it being a best seller, I had to stop by. I placed the order for a longsilog plate which included 4pc of sweet longanesa, garlic fried rice, & a fried egg. Unfortunately, this dish and its sausages didn't do it for me. Factoring in these sausages being considered "sweet" the level of sweetness was not sweet enough for me. My excitement quickly turned into disappointment but maybe I'm just really picky when it comes to my Longanesa... The garlic fried was good- nice level of garlicky flavor and rice was cooked well. The slices of tomatoes and cubed were fresh. 3 stars for this experience. I may not want to return for PT's sausage but there are a few Filipino favorites I'd love to sample. Hopefully those will tickle my fancy. read more

This little gem fed us with BIG Filipino flavors! We ordered Pinakbet, Sinigang Pompano, and Torta Talong. Each entree was delicious and brought back comforting memories of my mom and dad! Thanks so much to the chef Jay and restaurant staff for their hospitality! There are only 2 tables and a few chairs but it perfectly accommodated my 100+ yo Aunt, my husband and I to enjoy our mid-afternoon meal with gusto! We will return again for sure! read more

Silog silog silog! Our go to place for take out when we're craving Filipino food. Garlic rice is on point. Lumpia is always fresh and good. My go to plate is lechonsilog and the rest of my family can't get enough of the cornsilog with the corned beef. If you're looking for healthy, this isn't the place to go to. But if you want good tasting, quick filipino take-out, I'd give this place a try. Shop is small and mainly for takeout orders. They also have a small market area for asian staple ingredients to purchase. read more

I mean this really really really ( i can't stress enough) really really is great filipino food. man. second time that i've been here and holy moly i wish it was closer. somehow, someway ive never had lechon. but im so glad this was my first time having it. crunchy and tasty. tosilog was hitting crazy. nice balance to the greasier lechon bc of the sweet. always very good garlic rice and i love the veggies with it. also ordered 2 pieces of turon to bring home to mom. a bit sad bc they gave them to me lukewarm at best so i had to reheat them to really enjoy them but the flavor is amazing. trying my best to not go back next week.,, read more

We ordered the lechon kawali and lumpia party trays for a get-together, and they were really good! The lechon kawali was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the lumpia was packed with flavor and the perfect snack for any occasion. Everything was well-prepared and well-communicated. Good service! That said, I did find the prices a bit on the higher side. But honestly, I'm happy to support a local business. The quality and service were solid, so it's worth it for the convenience and the support of a small, community-driven spot. Will definitely consider ordering again for future gatherings! read more

Visiting town and was craving something savory for breakfast. What better option than some Filipino food? I love that they open at 7am for the early birds. Ordered the Tocilog and it was everything I was craving. The garlic rice had crispy garlic pieces and the tocino was well marinated and its sweetness was not overpowering. I definitely had enough to save for lunch on my travels home. The store is neat, clean, and well designed. They have two small tables outside. Once I got my food, I enjoyed my hot delicious breakfast basking in the morning sunlight. read more

Don't eat here if you're on a budget. The food is not that great. Halo-halo ingredients taste stale, ice cream is not even sweet, must be home made. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! Had to edit this review, He'a right price of the lumpia is not $23 my apology to the owner. But still not going back. read more

Really good an authentic Filipino foods. Nice place to hangout and chill and they have kareoke.

If you're craving Filipino comfort food, Tindahang Pinoy is definitely worth a visit. The dishes here feel very home-style and satisfying--perfect when you want something warm and familiar. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the portion sizes, which makes it a great spot for a casual meal. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Overall, it's a nice place to enjoy comforting Filipino food without spending too much. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I ordered the lumpia meal with rice and egg. Was slightly thrown off by the lumpia as it was chewy and not crispy. It also tasted pretty bland. Egg and rice were fine. Maybe other items on the menu are better...maybe one day I'll come back and try. Maybe. read more

We live pretty close from this place. Like down the road, not bad if your wanting filipino. Its kind of like a Panda Express but Filipino food. And they also look like a small market for filipino sauces and bakery items. I like my filipino foods from the two cities ( Union and Daly ) but don't always want to drive.. Food is good. We got Three items. Lechon Kawali, Dinuguan and Corn Beef Silog. Lechon is Filipino Pork Belly that is fried. It was yummy and not oily. They sell by the weight. I would return for this only. The only downside to the Lechon is that there was no sauce. Never had Lechon with no sauce before here. Dinuguan was a bit more vinegary than others. Corn Beef was pretty salty and Ive had this dish before. Service was ok. Nothing out of the ordinary other than they scoop up your food. Portions aren't great. Overall just mediocre in my opinion. No surprises. Prices aren't clear so ask before you buy anything. The place is pretty quiet and has a private lot right in front. read more

I ordered a plate of tapsilog here and it was kinda pricey. Wait time was okay, maybe somewhere around 5-10 min. I would suggest ordering ahead of time if you're in a rush. Great service, they offered an extra vinegar if I wanted. Price was justified because when I got home, the serving of tapa was more than enough. I actually almost ran out of rice. Very delicious, too! Definitely would come back and order more next time I'm craving tapsilog. read more

We ordered a whole lechon here expecting something special, but it fell short. At $600, it really wasn't worth it. The party is nearly over and more than half is still untouched. The skin wasn't crispy and looked burnt, and the sauce was just a bottled Lydia's lechon sauce. Sharing this so others know what to expect before ordering. read more

Stopped by here on a Saturday morning while waiting for my tattoo appointment. They have a lot of options for combinations. The garlic rice is really good. I came in with a craving for corned beef and longanisa already so it was pretty much a done deal for me. It all tasted really great! The staff are really really nice and very accommodating. They also have a lot of suggestions if you don't know what you want. They have a few tables and chairs if you choose to eat there. They also have a few other Filipino snacks and popular Filipino condiments and sauces as well. They have a lot of people coming in and out for pick ups and orders. They definitely seem very popular in the area. Definitely worth stopping by if you have a craving for some Filipino foods. There's plenty of parking, and they're conveniently located in a plaza with a grocery store and other stores nearby. I'd definitely come back when I come back to the Bay Area! read more

Can't believe it took me this long to scope this place out...I live about a 5 min drive from here...literally around the corner. Good spot to fulfill your Filipino food cravings. Not a whole lot of room on the inside. Tindahan Pinoy isn't exactly a restaurant, one mos definitely can't eat in here, although they do have some make shift outdoor seating. They sell a lot of Filipino products like snacks, condiments and baked goods as well...kinda like specialty market. I'm not all that familiar with Filipino food. So just cam in to check it out. Filipino eats: ~ Shrimp Ukoy - 4/5 Ukoy is the Filipino version of shrimp fritters. Small shrimps with head and shell on are mixed in a batter and fried until crispy. Very tasty, not overly oily and cheap! My first time trying this... Now I just need to return with someone who really knows their Filipino food and try a whole bunch of stuff... read more

Best Arroz Caldo I've tried, compared to other restaurants. The Sagulaman Drink was not bad, but could use less sweetener.

Took an early flight into SJC and first thing was where can we get a Filipino breakfast. Yelp said go to Tindahan. Upon arriving, we noticed it's more of a takeout restaurant. Two small cafe tables outside and no seating on the inside. Ordered tapsilog, bangsilog, a small serving of lechon kawali, and dinuguan. Besides fighting the flies outside the food was just terrible. Lack of flavor, the lechon and tapa were so overcooked that it was like beef jerky. It was disappointing for being there so early in the morning. Will have to look around for another breakfast place in San Jose. They did have a small sari sari setup going on inside for those who needed something without going into the mega Asian store Nextdoor. read more
