Fort McKinley Restaurant, Bar & Banquet

Food was so flavorful! We ordered fish, beef calderetta and the garlic rice with pickled veggies on the side, one of the best meals I’ve had in a while from a restaurant! Service was a little slow, it took about 20 minutes for us to get our drinks from when we sat down but the waitress was nice so we didn’t mind much. Atmosphere is a little loud, I think they rent out half of their restaurant for parties and events and there was one going on that night, but that’s also a good thing, I’ll keep them in mind next time I have an event lol.All in all, I’d go there again because the food was top tier!

Small lunch buffet menu Wednesday through Friday. It’s like Panda Express or Sisig Express, you point to what you want and a server dishes on a plate. Nice and hygenic.

Update: They really need to work on customer service at lunch. It would be better to allow customers to serve themselves from the buffet. The waiter allowed someone to cut me in line twice without any care in the world. I was patiently waiting quite a long time and these people were allowed to get their plates, sit at their table and still come back in line right in front of me and get more plates. Twice. I reminded the waiter that there was a line and I am in line and he didn’t care at all and didn’t say anything. I guess only come here for Sundays and holidays so you don’t have to wait for everyone to cut you in line. The service doesn’t exist at lunch at all. They left a pitcher of water at my table and never came back. No napkins, no check in, nothing. Then they let everyone cut me in line. Not worth the price to stand in line and the whole restaurant gets service before me regardless of lines.*****Old review is no longer valid. Customer service is non-existent at lunch.*****Excellent Filipino food! Love coming for their lunch buffet, Mother’s Day and Easter brunch buffets. The pricing is very reasonable. Currently I think $16.99 for lunch buffet and $29.99 for Sunday & holiday brunch. Check out the daily menu online because the lunch buffet menu changes daily. You get your money’s worth in lechon alone lol! Mostly traditional Filipino food, but once they had sisig alfredo pasta and it was delicious! Lunch buffet is a bit fancy because the staff serve you at the buffet line. The price did increase, but that’s everywhere in the Bay Area. The quality and AYCE buffet style is what make the price a steal. The restaurant itself is pretty and clean. I love the piano, capiz shell chandeliers and decor. I’ve had family members use this venue for their event receptions the staff was professional and the food was amazing. There is also a bar in the evenings and it’s very popular. As long as I could remember this place has been popular and well-loved. It has always had great food and a classy atmosphere.

3 Star rating is for weekday lunch buffet experience and customer service. They have lunch buffet Wed - Friday. Buffet Menu is updated each day on their website so you can see what dishes they will be serving. Have came here a few times, no dishes were outstandingly delicious but I would keep coming back since 17 bucks is cheap for the amount of variety you get. They have one dish called 7up shrimp I found nasty and inedible for my palate. Shrimp is mushy, so either undercooked or improperly defrosted. They dont devein their shrimp so you will have to do it yourself with a fork or eat the shrimp waste. A previous review mentions the server behind the buffet allows people to cut the line. The folks that cut the line were very talkative with the server whom I presume are regulars. This is unfair and huge turnoff for people already in line.

Stopped here for lunch before heading to San Jose.If you were to judge the atmosphere by the outside appearance, you would probably be surprised.Not a fancy building, but once inside it seems elegant.They serve a lunch buffet on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Menu rotates, and if you look on their website the night before, it will tell you what they are serving the next day.Offerings are fairly basic. Steamed rice, fried garlic rice, pansit (noodle dish) with veggies and chicken, a fried pork dish, a beef dish, I think it was beefsteak, and seafood shrimp dish cooked in coconut and a dessert. Soup was mongo.You told the server what you wanted and she would fill your plate. Prices were ok, but I wish they would offer more food options.

Planning a wedding venue here for August and was able to work out the details over lunch. Food was great and Zita was personable and accommodating. Were excited for the upcoming wedding in August

I havent been to this place for a long time but since we are around the area I thought a buffet would be nice on Saturday.As soon we came in the buffet schedule was changed to every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.The food was great but I noticed the fried rice if Im not mistaken they used sushi grain rice. Ive never seen a Pork adobo together with plantains, but its taste alright. Calamari is good. Mango drink, I believe it came from a Gina mango juice in can.

This place is fantastic! I really wish more non-Filipinos would try traditional Filipino food, especially when it tastes this darn great. On top of how delicious the food is, the staff and servers are wonderful, both friendly and prompt, and the restaurant itself has a very nice ambiance, tastefully decorated, with typical Filipino music (e.g. covers of famous songs sung by pitch perfect Filipino artists) playing in the background. One of the surprise highlights for me was dessert; their fried suman with ube and mango sauce was unique and super tasty. Highly recommended!

The service was excellent, with a friendly staff that enhanced the overall experience. The food was not only delicious but also reasonably priced. I especially enjoyed the fresh lumpia, which was exceptionally good.

Nice gem hidden between San Bruno and South San Francisco on El Camino Real. As a local, I know this place as a good place for Filipino food (especially for take outs). All that aside, it is overall a worthwhile place to go for dinner to enjoy an ambient atmosphere in their restaurant, or a go-to place to watch a game at the bar with alcoholic, which is thankfully separated from the eating area. The place also has a large venue in the back for events or reservation for parties, etc. They have a parking lot, and it does get full, but there are plenty available on the street or the parking lot across. Go for their Crispy Binagoongan and Bangus Sisig, we always order this for take out or for our own parties. Everything else is good standard Filipino food.

Great location and good food for Tania who we lost much too soon. Rest In Peace Now Angel!!!

Good customer service and Philippine fusion dishes, like pork Adobo with plantains. Looks like alot of parties and reception are held here with the large party room in the back. Buffets are held daily.

Nice, classy place with dining and a bar.They had special platters of dishes together and also single dish ordering available. They had a very wide variety of courses to choose from including the drinks & appetizers. They had clean restrooms and very good customer service.

I was looking forward to a delightful lunch but I left sorely disappointed. Variety and quality has suffered since I came last year. As an example, their desert consists entirely of guinataang bilobilo, which was too sweet and tasteless. There was not a single dish which stood out.

Fine dining, savory Filipino dishes, delightful atmosphere, friendly staff and fair price. Dont miss their crab longganisa and gambas ajillo!

Made appointment for a larger party Sunday at 12:00pm with no issues. The service was good & the workers were very helpful. The food was really good! Ordered family-style, and the plates were large enough to serve 4-5 people.Ordered Pancit bihon, lechon kawali, beef nilaga, garlic rice, beefsteak, pinakbet.The prices may be a little high, but the portions are large enough to serve 5-6 people so it makes it worth it!

Very authentic Filipino food where each menu has distinctive tastes. Flavorful and yummy.

Good food buffet and friendly, helpful service for our dear Aunts funeral reception.

We came on time to get a table($200) on the club,but our waiter ,which is the only 1,he get to us after 9 pm he told us some menu is not avail after 9.The crispy bulalo is all bones although it is tasty.The all gender bathroom is very dirty and it smells.The band and the DJ are all excellent performer, the music is very good.

The restaurant is not appearing vibrant as it once was. The venue is spacious but lacks ambiance. Its like dining in an old library. Food quality is average. Nothing special.

My family has had many celebrations here. From birthdays, debuts and most recently a funeral reception. Rita and the staff here have been nothing but wonderful!! They opened their venue hall on a Tuesday, when they’re usually closed, for my family and accommodated our many extra guest. We originally booked their hall for an expected guest list of 130, we ended up having close to 180 guest. They were very accommodating and we were more than happy to pay for the unexpected additions.

Food was good but service is hit or miss. Sometimes its really good and sometimes not so much. You come here for the sisig and pineapple rice.

We had a large party of 12 to celebrate my brothers visit. He lives in Texas, where its hard to find good Filipino food. We chose Fort McKinley to accommodate relatives who live nearby. We ordered his favorites, which he really enjoyed. On certain days, it offers a lunch buffet.There was only one server that evening, so with our large party it was probably fortunate that there were only four other diners in the restaurant that night.

We had a party here and they have different types of rooms at different prices points. The air planes fly over and youll hear it. The food is mehh quality and definitely not recommend for people who might have an easy upset stomach issues

As a filipino, i totally enjoyed a buffet targeting Filipino foods! The food was very delicious and the staff was very attentive and helpful. The price was reasonable and i left very happy and very full!

I went for lunch. Food was bland. Not much of a variety for a buffet style all you can eat spot.Would I come back? If someone paid yes. But honestly No. Price is mid-range. My buddy really enjoyed it as you can see in the pics.

Hot sinigang beef is great and variety of Filipino foods tend to be greasy but satisfies ones craving until the next Pinoy party. The crispy pork belly is thinly slice and deep fried that it is hard to eat even if you soak it in cucumber/🍅 salad. Dessert is usually not sweet but merienda. ***Great place for functions!!!

Was ok not to bad, 3 days a week the have a small Buffet with few dishes

One of the best Filipino restaurant in San Bruno.They made their mark for their buffet.Last time I visited the place was before the COVID pandemic.Prices have gone up, but still very reasonable.Food remains really good.Service and ambience still top notch.We ordered kare kare, tokwat baby, sisig, sagot gulaman, pancit and garlic fried rice.Really love the kare kare, sisig and tokwat baboy.Highly Recommended!!

The food was great! If I had a complaint it would be that though I wanted to run through the entire cocktail menu for a friends birthday, we could only order about half since they lacked the ingredients for them, on a Saturday! Bar manager needs to be more on it than that. Also, dont offer drinks you cant make. Id rather have a small selection than a large one that I cant get half of. Service and food was top notch though.

Great food. Love the bangus sisig. Salad was good too. Lovely decor and friendly service. Beautiful place.

After the new owner has taken over the place, everything is going down the path.As the food doesnt taste good anymore. And the owner seems to have an attitude when asked if they still used the same recipe from previous owner.And the drinking water they provide is tap water and it doesnt taste good.They were asked to provide spoon and they said $.60 each for plastic and never offered the real one for serving our cakes.Very very poor service and hardly people go there anymore.I believe this place will close very soon as they cant make up the monthly rent payment anymore.

Went to lounge with the live band and had some great Filipino food.

Great place to meet and hang out with friends.Food is ok considering its a nightclub.Service is ok considering its a nightclub.Older crowd but friendly faces.

I’m from Dallas Texas and It’s my first time in this restaurant. (Just googled for Filipino Food).They served Wednesday buffet and surprisingly it was great food and tastes like home cooked and several varieties.It’s also clean, and their waiters and staff and even the manager are polite and smiling and been talking to me.Highly recommend and definitely want to come back. Wanted to try their other services, especially catering small, medium and big events.All the best. God bless your business.(note: I don’t make endorsements lightly.I encourage readers to give it a try as well).

Delicious food, great service. My family and I had brunch there. I recommend making reservations as the place gets very busy. We were a group of 10, made reservations the day before, got seated right away and started to eat. I have no complaints about the food. It was all good 👍. Then we made sure we had halo halo for dessert which is included in the Sunday brunch price. Our waiter was also kind. We were a group of 10 so gratuity charge was already added to our bill. My cousin who paid didnt realize it and added tip money. So our waiter returned and asked if she meant to add as much since gratuity was included. So she was able to change the amount and not overpay on the tip.

Menu choices are garbage not worth the price. Pork lechon too hard and had a bad smell on it. Pancit was watery and all menu items look like they’re leftovers. Calamari was too chewy and rubbery. VERY DISAPPOINTED! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!

This place has a lot of potential to improve. First, it’s on the Main Street so easily accessible and parking is free but limited and a little cramped, hint, try not to drive big SUVs. Food is good but nothing to brag about tho. However, it’s the first time I’ve tasted pasta sisig and it was quite unexpectedly tasty. There’s a hidden story about this place which I can understand how it’s setup inside. Inside is a bit dated but my guess is this is more crowded at night particularly for events so it won’t be noticed as much. I gave it 3 stars becuz the restrooms needed a full thorough renovation. But aside from that staff is friendly, food is good and plenty of space for multiple events going on.

Great place for food and fun.They have super fun live bands play on weekends. Amazing food! Everything Ive had was over the top delicious. Theres a crispy chicken dish that stays on my mind! The bar and band area has a better feel than most, clean and open, really nice. Love to eat, drink, and dance at this place!(They REALLY need more than a single restroom though!)

Had a great and filling time here. Food is delicious and the staff are attentive and very friendly.We ordered days ahead since we are quite a big group and the food came without much waiting once we were all seated.

Nice quiet setting. Very delicious food, I had a beef and a chicken dish. Both were very satisfying. They allow larger groups too. I recommend you give them a try also considering they were the only restaurant that didnt have a wait at 630pm

Ive only come here several times because I was invited for a birthday party, wedding or baptism. But all the time, Ive had only positive experience. The place is nice and friendly, the service is prompt, the food is great, and the live band is awesome. This place is famous from my friends hanging around, drinking, eating and watching the live band.

Great food, but each basket of food was $10. Casual club/bar. No need to dress up and there is no entrance fee. Not many people in there but the DJ played a few good songs. Overall it was an okay first experience!

The staff service treats every party like family! Its a great venue for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and big get together as they have several rooms to accommodate everyone. The Filipino classics they serve live up to the taste of home. You wont be dissatisfied with any of the dishes they have to offer!

First time here..overpriced for their food. $16 for a siomai and lumpianitas for a few pieces? Ridiculous!!!!

We went for a presentation with lunch, food was good and service was good. The dining area is too dark and a bit cold inside there. Bathroom needs some tending, it was dirty.

This spot is where the old Filipino Titos and Titas go on Saturday night! All jokes aside, the food is awesome! Weve been here for receptions also. The bands are fun and engaging, and the bar has what you need.

Started off good, but after we got our appetizer the server was MIA! After about 45 minutes we flagged down someone and got their attention. Yet about 20 minutes more we finally got our food. They totally forgot us. Too bad cuz I was prepared to give them a good review but the experience was not a good one. I feel sorry for the under staff and poor management.

Garbage service, I don’t understand how tipping is mandatory, we need to change the tipping system. If you’re not happy with the service you should be able to express that through tipping, this is why they don’t feel obligated to earn the tip and give garbage service.

Went here on a Saturday (5-1-2021) and ate at a reception in their hall after a memorial service. They had a catered buffet, and I was informed that the most of the menu items served were not on their regular menu. That being said, I was very impressed with the food and the friendliness of staff. On my plate were Lumpianitas, glazed fish, garlic chicken, and what turned out to be my favorite, the sisig pasta. I inquired with staff to wiggle out any recipe info on the sisig pasta, but expectedly to no avail, it is a secret recipe 😃😃😃😃 Would definitely come here again the next time Im in the Bay Area.

Pretty nice place food is awesome

First time here and it was pretty decent. A band was playing cover songs that I really like, such as tunes by Doobie Brothers and Queen, but the volume was kinda high for the area size. Appetizers we had (Sisig Nachos) was good and the beers were priced fairly. I would come back here, but cant say Id be a regular patron. Try it though!

Very deceiving from the outside, but very nice and clean inside. The three sauces provided ; are delicious. Moderate prices and friendly staff. Plus, they delivery. This place definitely is gonna be a go to spot. The only issue is the parking, but I can look past that due to the all around atmosphere inside.

Delicious filipino food with friendly staff and stylish decor. Parking is limited.Update- we came here around 1pm on Sunday and didnt realize its buffet only until 5 pm. If you dont have a huge appetite,like us. I wouldnt recommend paying $17.95 /person. So we left and ate @ another restaurant.

The food was really good, the only complaint I have as an American actually plays into something Filipino people love, that is the meat has lots of fat... the dessert we had looked like raw meat but it was coconut and tasted great...

Food here is not good... Went here for a party and they had a buffet... They give you hella small plates so all the food mixes together... The lechon tasted like the pinakbet and the pinakbet tasted like the weird cheese fish dish they served... But even the individual dishes were mediocre at best. Yeah not a good spot for Filipino food in the Filipino capital of the bay area...

Awful seating system! With such a large dining room, only 2 people were working on seating groups with reservations and walk-ins on Sunday morning while about 50 people were waiting to be seated. Every time the 2 walked a party into the dining room, no one would be working at the front desk. I got there at 11:25am for the 11:30am opening and didnt get seated till about 12:03pm. The food and service at the table were great, but the bottleneck at the front nearly ruined the meal.

Love the atmosphere here. Stop in once a week while daughter is in dance class. Bar tenders are very nice and personable. Live bands, floor lighted stage, large wall sized projector screen t.v., at least three big screen t.v.s yo watch game and a beautiful new custom bar top. Also very good bar bites!

Very good. Compare to patio Filipino and oingpin. Great ambiance from what it used to be. Not a big crowd 530 Saturday. Good food. Got out for 86 for 4 orders, 1 drink, and 2 desserts. Oingpin better price. Fort better ambiance. Patio in between. All good.

Good food, nice variety for lunch buffet at an affordable price. Friendly service and Gigi was great!

For $10.95 + tax the buffet is not bad at all. There are plenty of wait staff to pick up dirty dishes. And the chafing areas and stands are clean. Chafers are well stocked with none of the entrees dry or left over for long periods of time. Food looks and tastes delicious. Tuesday restaurant is dark. Did not use lavatory so I cannot comment on tidiness. The lack of a five star is the condition of the lavatory, an unknown, a variable.

Elegant, Great Service & Drinks

A lot better than the last time I ate here a few years ago, food quality way better, entitled tipped employees gone, service attitude way better, now I know why, there are new sheriffs in town. Otherwise they have been ran out of town. But still a long ways to get back to the glory days of 12 years ago.......

This is a Filipino restaurant. I know, right? Who;d have thunk form the name? Decently classy setting as far as Filipino restaurants go. Good food but not remarkable but no complaints to be had about service or taste and rooms for events and parties.

The atmosphere was electrifying live music and dancing was awesome !

Authentic and classy place. Some of the best philipino food I have tasted. Has a separate bar with live music often and conference rooms for big dinners. Dinner of buffet available.

Great for its tasty & authentic Pastel Lengua and Callos, which not many Filipino restaurants serve, among other old-time favorites. Restful and classy ambience, reasonable price, and attentive service.These are what draw me to this restaurant time and again. See for youself.

We visited bay area again after many years to visit old friends and enjoy buffet filipino lunch together. Wr saw their add online and tjought it would be a good place to meet up for lunch. This experience turned out to be a very stressfilul and disappointing one. The lady server was very rude and annoying, not only that she squeezed our party on the very end of the small restaurant against the wall, when we told her that its very difficult to be seated this way, her redpose was what do you want me to do?! To accommodate 10 people, she squeezed us all in a table that can only accommodate 8 or less. It was very difficult for many of us to go in and out of our seats to get some food. Few people had to stand up for some individuals who needed to get up to get some food or use the restroom. If you have big group, this place is not ideal. The food wad ok not so amazing for any of us tocome back for. Whata huge disappointment.

Had reserved a dining hall for 50 guests for an occasion, food was mediocre and so was the service.

We went here for dinner and they had great Filipino food with large servings enough to share with 2-3 people!

In fairness, the food that we ordered were all delicious. I wish they can keep the taste and quality. Ill give an A to the service. Jane, our server, is pleasant and has good customer service.

Fort McKinley....the food , services is par more than excellent. The price is very reasonable . The buffet table is never empty. Celebration of my brother Rhuddee birthday . I will recommend Fort McKinley to everybody. Good job.

Weve been here for brunch on a few special occasions and have been impressed each time with the quality and quantity of selections. The servers are friendly and attentive, and the prices are reasonable. Well be back for sure.

Thursday nights has karaoke @7pm . In the bar area , when you buy a drink , your drink comes with song slips . You can also order food from the kitchen before a certain time . Kitchen is closed after a certain time ( I think 8:30pm or 9pm)

Food was bland. Plenty of seating in each room. One of the biggest problems I came across is that there are only two toilets. I believe the capacity for this place is over 400

Great Filipino food! Friendly waitress. Live entertainment on Saturday night.

Cute place, food is okay, kitchen is slow. Granted, we did have a large walk in party. The waiters were very nice and attentive, just waited a long time to get our food.

Im with the band... lol well yes. We came out for my mother/father-in-laws birthday celebration. Just so happened to be on a Wednesday that my father-in-laws band was playing, Cool Elements they play classic rock, if anyone likes the classics (who doesnt?). This place is HUGE!!!! The parents-in-laws rented out this back enclosed patio area that had a waterfall, lights, and easy access to the bar area so we could hear the band. It was a bit chilly in there but with enough bodies in there you really couldnt tell anymore. Food is meh ok, it was banquet foods so Id like to try their real menu items, especially the bibingka soufflé that others keep raving about. I had a Ube Mudslide martini, sans the chocolate syrup, I believe the bartender forgot it, oh well I think I wouldve made it a lot richer, but overall it was still very tasty (ube ice cream, whipped cream, and Malibu rum). Hubby got a Shocktop... he said it tasted crisper/cleaner than other places hes had it.

Foods are few to think this is a buffet restaurant we can’t get by ourselves must wait for a server not like before pandemic they’re no longer the same and most of all for your information the restaurant is formerly a funeral home

Very good Filipino food, friendly staff, and clean restaurant. Reasonable prices. Make reservations for large group. You wont leave hungry.

Food was late, guest had to waitOtherwise everything was very niceMany guest didnt know about the place and were going to revisit or have a party there. I would def. Recommend

I love the food. Other than the close quarters dining areas its not bad. I have always visited during their brunch time services.

Way over priced, lousy service and its like they rush you to get out...and theyre not even full. Been here a few times and still hasnt changed. Live and learn. And, yes, Im Filipino.

Fancy place but lowers its quality with substandard service and using plastic cups and plastic plates. Overpriced but the food was good. Halo-halo was missing most of the important ingredients.

For restaurant quality Filipino food, theyre pretty good. I really enjoyed the Kare-kare and lechon kawali. A nice surprise was the sisig quesadilla appetizer - yummy.

If you can get past the part about how this building was a former mortuary, then youre in luck for an interesting time. Many Filipino Americans that have visited Fort McKinley have given rave reviews on the atmosphere, food and service. However, the first time I stepped foot in this place, I had a weird feeling. I couldnt get past it, so I asked a staff member who told me the history of the building. I also got a tour and of rooms where the morgue used to be. Some people might get creeped out, but if you can get past the history, then you can easily step foot into a modern and exciting atmosphere with tasty Filipino cuisine. I definitely recommend their kare kare and homemade bagoong. It reminds me of Islas own kare kare. Parking can be a hassle around here, especially when spots have time limits. If you can find street parking, then go for it.

Food was ok, went in for lunch and didnt know that it was only buffet. Asked server if I could order something else but she said no, but then I saw another table getting a side order so asked another server and was able to order what we wanted to try... just took extra time and wasnt super happy with buffet, which we really didnt want.

I always have a great experience here. The food is pretty good and the buffet during breakfast has a lot of great variety. I like the ambiance too

Apparently it is easy for them if you have a reservation, although we were walk-ins and it took some time for them to find us a table. We came for the lunch buffet, not a lot of dishes but what they served was awesome!

For the Lounge: karaoke DJ sucks. Need to change. Better to have in house karaoke. Regular karsoke patrons do not spend enough but want to sing all night snd bribe the karaike dj with money. Dont need to pay for a lousy karaoke dj.

Very good places has a good bar.and band and kareoke places.

The dining room, menu and the restrooms smell really bad!! The food is acceptable and large quantity with reasonable prices. Must clean up the smell problem before returning there!

Very nice place with good food. We went here after a memorial service. The food was self serve style. Good Filipino food and good service from the staff.

I was pleasantly surprised. Nice layout nice people not too bougie or anything like that. The food was good and the drinks or just as good, very comfortable place.

Quite a small bar/club area, songs selection from DJ is quite decent, the live band performed oldies so some might not into it. You wont see any younger crowd on a Saturday night.

The worst buffet I had in entire life in USA..we came at 1:00 pm and there is no food in some tray, they have munggo, chayote, siding, no chicken tinola , rice, and egg roll..for a 12 dollars it is a robbed.. there is a little bit left in each tray..the host keep on accepting customers knowing there are no food on trays...COME AND VISIT ALABMA..12 DOLLARS YOU HAVE UNLIMITTED STEAK, SNOW FRAB LEG, SHRIMP, BBQ RIBS AND A LOT OF ADIAN FOOD..I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS. ..

Food are not authentic filipino cooking anymore! Will not recommend to eat there if youre looking for a good home cook meal.

Im impressed with the size of the restaurant. Good quality, tasty wonderful selection of Filipino food. Very inexpensive lunch buffets.

The food is tasty and flavorful. They have a nice private area for a party.

Amazing food and great service!! Friendly people specially June, he made as feel at home. We will definitely come back...

$12.95 lunch buffet, selections offered change daily, check Facebook page for daily options!! Full bar after 5 p.m., otherwise beer, wine, soda.Look forward to second visit to try more Filipino specialties!!

Delicious food, excellent selection, the staff is extremely professional and friendly and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend it, they have plenty of room for celebrations and anniversaries

Very poor service,under staff. Some food were ok , grilled tuna panga was bland n took 40 min. to cook. Would not recommend or go back again.

First time here, very lively and happening place...well be back! I recommend this place in So. City, if you want to have great food and a real happy time, this is it!

The lounge smelled like a bathroom, there wasnt anyone at the desk and no one answered the phone. We called many times but the phone didnt even ring. We waited more than 20 minutes and there still wasnt anyone. We didnt even get our food.

The food, atmosphere is great and services was performed well. I enjoyed my first time and experience there.

I enjoyed their food very much I feel that its a kind of place you take people for special events as well as a girlfriend on a date.

Lunch buffet 11am to 2pm arrived at 12:25 PM buffet menu baked fish run out

Lovely venue for a large event. Food was delicious. Service staff was friendly and helpful.

Good food, service and location for Filipino food and drinks. Good band also. Parking a bit tricky when full.

Great food, sometimes they have a buffet where you can taste the many different dishes.

Its like a half resto half bar! Super cool and great bar chow! Had a great time here. Def worth a visit!

The best filipino restaurant in the US of A!!!! Always our dining choice whenever we are in the bay area!!!!! They have to open another one in Los Angeles!!!

Did not expect the food to be sooo good. Went for a party during the holidays and we ordered almost every dish and every dish tasted good.

Its fair. Price and quality of food are acceptable. Nothing different from any other Filipino restaurants.

Family style gourmet Filipino food. Food was good. Service was slow and portions were small for family style.

Love coming here for the buffet lunch. Price is reasonable. Wish they will include coffee or tea as part of the buffet.

Surprised to have live piano music! Comfortable and roomy seating. Good food. Will come back.

Good food always celebrate birthday party in this place we keep on going back for me this is 5 star!!

Great food. It also serves as a venue. Staff has good sense of humor.

Staff are very friendly. Good food. Peaceful place. Also got its own function room

Place is above average in my opinion. its just Ive seen faster bartenders in San Diego

Food is cheap and decent. The bar is lacking in selection but the cocktails are very affordable

Quality food at a great value. Awesome service and nice decor. Highly recommend.

Great food, loved the Cubano meat, cant remember what it was called exactly but it was really good.

Interesting place, good band, nacho cheese is ok. DJ- good choice of music. Drinks are fine.

Huge venue for parties. Great Filipino food with a nice bar and a dance floor to burn the calories off.

Had meals with friends here a couple times, the bar usually is awfull horrid slow if not non existent customer service! I try to avoid the place!

Out of garlic noodles and adobo! Ordered other food that was disappointing, dry, and as if the chef didnt care about the quality.

Awesome ownership..staff..food .prices...bands... security is handsome and really nice...love it

Great place for chilaxin and dancing with the barkadas(friends).Food were delicious and service excellent.

We had a small banquet here and the service was great! We even had lechon and it was good!

Very clean workers are excellent with the people, and make you feel good about being there, plus the food is also good there. Gilbert S. Wong

Service is wonderful! Came for a party, but food is... Well... Its okay.

The best Filipino Restaurant for events like birthdays, wedding or family meals in South San Francisco.

Really great food. Fun atmosphere. Definitely recommend!!!!

Good food and decent place to eat. But they need to keep their restroom clean.

Order came out fast. All taste good!

Great buffet. Went for a funeral reception. Food and staff were top notch.

Great food and fantastic service. Excellent choice for party events.

A great place for a special occasion gathering. The venue was clean and beautifully maintained.

Very nice banquet room. Variety of Filipino food served
