Grace's Lumpia — Restaurant in Cookeville

As a recent transplant from San Diego, I am constantly looking for places to fill my back home food craving. Filipino food is one of them. Lumpia, pancit, bbq, etc... Well, I found a place on a chance encounter! We took a day trip to Cookeville to check out some places and as we are driving down the road, I see a food truck and it says "Grace's Lumpia!" What??? Did I read that right? I yell at my husband who is driving, "I think that truck said lumpia!" And the rest is history! Our only regret that we weren't able to try everything. But we did order the beef tapa combo plate with pancit, pork lumpia and garlic rice. We also ordered a side of lumpia with a combo of shrimp and chicken. Everything was perfect and just what I needed. If you are in Cookeville, or even close, or what the heck, make a special day trip and stop in for some really good Filipino food! We ate in our car but they have some picnic tables with umbrellas. The portion sizes are great, the food is very good and flavorful and customer service was top notch!

When my husband was active duty, his commanding officer was from the Philippines. This officer would often bring in homemade food for the team. My husband has many good memories tied to good Phillipino food.

I am so happy I did. My entire family looks forward to my monthly visit to Cookeville, just so they can get their Adobo. The Lumpia is the best I've ever had.

Grace has always gone above and beyond to help me. The service from the girls, and hubby, that work here is always top notch, with nothing but smiles and friendly faces.

Would I recommend Grace's Lumpia? Absolutely!!!!! I feel it's worth my hour plus drive, each way, and I would make the drive even if I wasn't having my...

I had been looking to try the food. I am not familiar with Filipino cuisine so was unsure if I would like it. I have trouble with food if the ingredients are not extremely fresh. I get violently ill. Hands down the absolute best food I have ever eaten in my life. It was so savory and flavorful. Not even the slightest stomach ache which I usually get with almost everything due to some surgeries I have had. I got the shrimp skewer combo, I chose chicken lumpias they were so crispy on the outside and just absolutely delicious. I can not wait to try everything on the menu. I wish I had thought to take a picture. If I could give 10 stars I would. The price is fair as everything is cooked fresh. Just...
