Manila Sunset derived its name from this beautiful Philippine scenery – for in many ways, the food of Manila Sunset evokes the same nostalgic feeling. They bring back the memories of old-fashioned homecooking and traditional celebrations: Pasko, Simbang Gabi, Flores de Mayo, weddings, homecomings and other joyous occasions. Specialties include Bibingka, Puto Bumbong, Pancit Malabon, Lumpia Shanghai, and many other delectable dishes

This is a no frills Filipino restaurant. A step up from Toro Toro. They make the food fresh. The desserts are delicious.
PRO TIP- order and take home the dessert.

We came to pass through Historic Filipinotown and wanted to try some Filipino food. We were very pleased how good the food was, very reasonably priced and nice dining experience. We’ll be back again when we pass through.

For what it is…the food delivers. It’s pretty authentic Filipino food. I found it rather heavy and greasy, but that’s what it supposed to be. Fried chicken was quite good, and the pickles on the side were phenomenal. The pork belly was a little too heavy and fatty, but hey, that’s what it’s supposed to be. I will say, they took a while to get us our food. Seemed to be like a fast causal type restaurant but took about 20 minutes to get our food. Not sure if that’s typical, but if so, doesn’t make too much sense. Atmosphere is clean and tidy – no complaints. The potato noodle type thing was apparently their best selling, which was ok. Had almost kinda Indian curry spice type vibes to it. Threw me off a bit.

It’s my first time visiting Manila Sunset’s new location in Koreatown. I came here for brunch after mass on a Sunday. The food is excellent as always, however, service was really slow and subpar that day.

I ordered a Chicken Barbecue plate. It comes with 3 barbecue skewers, beef soup and 2 scoops of steamed rice. I also ordered a Sago’t Gulaman on the side. The Sago’t Gulaman came first, however I was not expecting to wait more than 30 minutes for my order. There were groups and orders that were placed after me, yet they got theirs first. I had to follow up at the front and assertively yet politely told the staff that I have been waiting for my food for more than 30 minutes. This is supposedly fast food.

I understand there were high volume of orders ranging from party trays and individual orders, however the pace of orders must be systematized and balanced. Many establishments are able to handle orders efficiently despite the high volume of customers. Perhaps, I suggest issuing buzzers/pagers for customers’ orders instead of relying on customer’s names.

When my order was finally ready, the staff apologized and gave me a complimentary dessert. I appreciate the complimentary item, but I’m optimistic that Manila Sunset’s service will still improve after this mishap.

The chicken barbecue is flavorful and grilled to perfection. The soup was a bit salty, but the beef chunks were tender. I will still return because I love your pancit and barbecue dishes.

This Filipino restaurant offers a spacious and inviting atmosphere with numerous clean tables. The ordering process is efficient and resembles a fast food establishment; however, the food quality pleasantly exceeded our expectations. Notable dishes included the Pork Sisig, grilled pork and chicken skewers, and Pancit Malabon, which were quite flavorful. The other dishes we sampled were also enjoyable. The desserts were delightful, with generously sized ice cream scoops that evoked a homemade quality, providing a refreshing finale to our meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone interested in experiencing authentic Filipino cuisine that is both reasonably priced and delicious.

Ordered to go, the lady taking the order was nice and polite. She clarified some questions I had about the menu without an attitude even though it was busy. The beef lumpia were good. The bibingka was decent. The only thing I really didn’t enjoy was the mabalon pancit, was expecting some chicharrón in there but none. Overall had a good experience and will return to try their Halo Halo.

I waited in line for about 20 minutes before they even took my order but it was worth the wait! I was starving so it really hit the spot. The halo halo I ordered came out pretty quickly like ~5 mins and then the lumpia and pork skewer came about another 15-20 minutes later.. the lady who helped me said that they’re made to order!

Relatively inexpensive OK filipino food popular with locals. Grilled squid was tasty but very chewy, and came with a way-to-salty bowl of beef broth. Arroz caldo was decent, but I’ve had better. Informal atmosphere, counter service, and paper / plastic serving dishes.

Top rating for Manila Sunset. Ordered the Lumpiang Shanghai to go. Was very delicious, especially with the sweet sauce this is included. The food is prepared and ready rapidly after ordering. I certainly look forward to being back there again soon.

The place is very huge with a lot of space to dine in. It looks very clean as well and easy to order. Been here a lot of time and the food is phenomenal. Price might be a little bit expensive if you compare it to php but it’s worth the crave.
