This place is unreal.
So I've never really had Filipino food before. I've had lumpia and Jollibee a little but never Filipino food proper so I had to come here to try some.
I don't even know what to say. Every single thing was delicious. The meats were all incredibly tender, the sauces incredibly flavorful. It was all cooked to perfection.
The man at the counter was very friendly and helped me out by explaining the dishes to me a little bit (and I tried everything anyway).
This place is perfect if you're new to Filipino food since it's a buffet and you can try a little bit of everything. For $14 it's an absolute STEAL because this food is insanely good.
Also, I know a lot of people are a little shy about blood but definitely try the pork blood stew here. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about it myself but it was probably one of my favorite things in the bar. Only a little of that iron taste but it went perfectly with the rest of the spices and the rice.

Honestly? Just try everything. There wasn't a single thing I disliked on the bar. Everything was delicious and fresh and full of flavor. Just eat all of it. I...

Filipino Kitchen by Grace was such a breath of fresh air! The workers there are so welcoming and easy to talk to. I come here pretty much every 1-2 weeks for the weekend buffet and they already know me as a regular. Even other customers are so friendly and the conversations had there are very much as if I were at the different houses of my tita’s back in L.A. and Vegas. I’m so thankful that I found this place and how they feel just like family. It means so much to me that I can go somewhere for a taste and...
Read moreIf you grew up in the Philippines and your aunt or mom lived nearby, this restaurant would feel just like that. It’s not just about restaurant food; it’s about home-cooked meals that bring comfort and nostalgia. The ingredients are all-natural, and you can taste the authenticity in every dish. Every time I come here, it feels like home. The food quality is excellent, and the buffet style allows you to enjoy a variety of dishes. If you were to order the same amount of food at a regular Filipino restaurant, it would easily cost five times more. And every time you go, you are greeted “Tuloy po kayo!...
