Reviews
There are actually a handful of employees here who recognize us as regulars, know we’ve been coming in for years, and always treat us with the utmost respect. Because of them, we kept coming back for so long.
Unfortunately, there is one specific employee, a young Filipina woman who usually wears a mask, who consistently treats my boyfriend and me very poorly. Her attitude is rude, dismissive, and unwelcoming, and it’s reached a point where it’s uncomfortable to even order. The issue isn’t the place as a whole, it’s her.
On top of that, our orders are constantly inconsistent when she handles them. We’re often missing items like sauce or fries, and when we order a popcorn chicken bowl, the portion is shockingly small, barely any chicken at all. When I order pancit, it tastes old, like it’s been sitting out all day.
After years of loyalty, it’s just so disappointing. Every time we come here now, we leave with another reason not to come back. Good food and respectful service go hand in hand, and being treated poorly over and over has completely turned us off. I really hope management addresses this, because loyal customers shouldn’t feel pushed away due to one employee’s behavior.
These things pop in your mouth. They are plump, soft and melt in your mouth with just enough give to make it a delicacy to chew.
Each bite is a visit to heaven, you will need rice to temper it’s flavor because it’s almost overwhelmingly delicious.
The flavors are an explosion of culture. It’s history. You can taste the Spanish influence, blended with Phillipine’s unique sense of flavors.
I don’t think any other Longanisa is anywhere near this. I don’t think any sausage hits like this, if you live in the San Francisco area you need to try this.
If you get one thing here it should be the Longanisa, garlic rice and Laing (leafy veggie in coconut milk.)
If you want something sweet get the Turon.
Jackfruit, Banana and other yummy things stuffed into a fried roll. Absolutely perfect.
Beef Kaldereta, a highlight — savory beef stew with a creamy finish from liver paste in sauce. Chicken Adobo, on-point with soy sauce-to-vinegar proportion (slightly more salty than sour). Pork Sisig, charry goodness flavored with savory, sweet and vinegary. Pancit, impressively packed with vegetables and protein — a relief from the normal carb-only option (with a few slivers of carrot and cabbage) often encountered elsewhere.
Dishes are clearly made with pride and high-quality in mind. An excellent option when exploring Filipino food (complete with explanations from the very helpful staff).
One of my favorite places for Filipino food is Turo Cafe and Grill. No frills place that makes homemade Filipino dishes. They have your usual standbys like pancit noodles, pork and chicken skewers, and lumpias. They also freshly make other items like sisig or kaldereta and many more items.. You can also get 1 or 2 item plates that comes with a choice of pancit or rice or both. I recommend you try their sinigang, you might become a believer!
She advised me on all the food options, and sold me on a plate off the BEST fish, moist chicken, and “hawaii shrimp truck like” garlic rice I’ve ever had, and I used to live in Hawaii.
It was so good, that after my class at CCSF I walked out of my way back here for Pancit and more chicken… and they were not only happy to see me again, but sold me on another dish that was even better!
Best little spot for Philippino food I’ve ever been too!! Give it a try and say hi to Clarissa!
Thanks for listening.
