It’s a surprising place. We got there at 7:30pm, we ordered Sizzling sisig and fried pork belly appetizer 16oz for two. The food was so fresh and delicious, sisig had a rich flavor in spices. The two servers we met in the store were nice, they said they’d give us more pork belly later because the box was not full but we didn’t even notice that. They basically fried a little more before they close just for us. Worth trying!

Food – They have different options to choose from. We had the pork dinuguan and humba along side with 2 cups of garlic rice for $11.99. We ordered the 5 sticks of pork barbecue which was on promo for $13.99 with small atsara and vinegar on the side.
Pork dinuguan and humba was good. Portion size is good for the price. The pork barbecue is not bad too, had a smokey flavour. Different type of barbecue that I had on other Filipino restaurants which had pork fat at the end and on the sweeter side.
Service – It was good. We were helped by two ladies over the counter.
Atmosphere – Quiet place inside the store.
It’s our first time visiting Mama Rosa. It wasn’t a busy time when we went there. Lots of foods to choose from. They have a separate spot at the basement where they have all sorts of Filipino things like snacks, sauces, etc.
The grocery side doesn’t have proper pricing available. You can ask the employee to scan and see how much the item is.
Parking is not a lot since they share with other establishments at the area. Make sure to bring your valuables when leaving your vehicle. Lots of broken glass outside, probably someone else’s car has been broken in.
Would definitely come back for more Filipino food!

Food is okay. But they do not place price tags on their grocery items which I think its not right and deceptive according to Maryland consumer protection act. Sometimes you will get bill shocked upon checking out. People should know and be informed how much the item is prior checking out. Hope this helps changing things around in you business.

I’m not sure what happened with the BBQ chicken, but it was undercooked. The thicker pieces toward the bottom of the kabob were still pink. I don’t enjoy leaving this type of feedback, but I hope it helps prompt action to address the issue. I truly appreciate the atmosphere and the excellent service, and I value the team there—but serving undercooked chicken is a serious concern. Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time I’ve noticed this.

This carryout and grocery was like being back in a small grocery in Makati. We got a platter with a few different dishes and garlic rice – great taste and a very reasonable price. The grocery prices were what you would expect for any specialized grocery. Staff was very friendly. I only give the 4 stats on atmosphere because we showed up early after my wife’s green card interview in the morning and they were still stocking shelves. Still, I would highly recommend!

We happened to be nearby again, so we just had to stop by Mama Rosa Grill for some Filipino food. We got veggie lumpia, combination pancit bihon and canton with pork, and chicken and pork BBQ. As always, it was very tasty, and a taste of home that I did not have to cook myself
Update: Went back for pinapaitan, dinakdakan, tortang talong and buko pandan.

The customer service needs work. I came to pick up a catering order around 10:30 am and was the only customer. I wasn’t greeted or acknowledge, I can understand the young man not saying anything at first because he was on the phone but there was two ladies who could have said hello and assisted me. Once he got off the phone he walked away from the front area. One of the other ladies went in the kitchen and the second lady started cutting vegetables. Maybe a minute later the young lady cutting the vegetables notice that no one was helping me. So she finally helped me. With this being my first time coming to his restaurant this is a horrible first impression.

The bad: The lumpia is awful! I have ordered it on several occasions. Each time, it was very disappointing to me and my family. My friends feels the same. It does not taste like lumpia, and sometimes it is overcooked. I had to quit ordering it.
The good: Great food all around! I love the buffet on the weekends. Great selection. The pancit and adobo is wonderful. The garlic fried rice is my favorite. Friendly staff!

a very comprehensive grocery of filipino items that only rivals a grocery in jersey city nj that closed 2 years ago… and it just so happens they got a legit casual restaurant/grill inside… or is it the other way around… whatever… everything we ordered was really good including the halo-halo… highly recommended!
