“ No frills Filipino food spot. The halo halo was a delicious treat. The portions are fat and they're not bad in price. If you're not a fan of pork,8 don't recommend it but they do serve burgers as well. ”

“ Can't believe I haven't updated my review in 6 years lol Lost a star because they don't sell the chicken on skewers anymore! And it's more expensive! Guy at the front said since Covid.. guess it's really been a while. The alternative options are buying pieces of chicken in a small, medium, or large container with the large being $20 for what he said was 4 or 5 skewers. Large is probably the size of a tall soup container you'd get your pho takeout in. I took his word for it and bought two large containers because I know 10 skewers would feed a small party (it was a potluck). It was not 4-5 skewers worth of chicken lol. It was more like 3. If I remember correctly, each skewer would have at least 4 pieces on it. Not a huge deal in this scenario cuz my party had a lot of food to choose from but just a heads up. If the skewers were like $3.50 each, that'd be half the price of what I paid for one large container. I'll be back for the regular food but probably won't be coming here for the bbq chicken since it's cheaper at FilAm and they still come on skewers. ”

“ A casual joint on the corner of San Jose Ave and Geneva Ave, right next to the Balboa Park BART station, this late-night Filipino restaurant is the perfect place to stop by if you're hungry for good food. Closing at midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, the restaurant's interior has a cozy seating area with Filipino music/TV shows playing on the TV. I do want to add that the parking right in front of the restaurant is such a huge plus since it takes away the inconvenience and potential danger of finding parking in SF! The best option is to get the 2 entrees with 2 scoops of rice, so I got the dinuguan and sinigang as the entrees. The dinuguan and sinigang were both very sweet, sour, and savory. Would highly recommend everyone to grab a bite! ”

“ The Lechon here is sooo good! We've ordered from them twice and everyone loved it. Their lumpia is also yummy and great for snacking. Highly recommend this place for take out!! ”

“ The food is amazing. I've ordered bifsteak, kare kare, laing, lumpia, ginataan, turon, pancit... Everything is so good. Right now, I'm enjoying a halo halo. We've ordered delivery and grabbed food to go. We're never disappointed. ”

“ Ordered from DoorDash. If you're craving some meat with rice, this is the perfect plate and so filling. Tosilog is pork, it's not too sweet or salty it's marinated perfectly together! The garlic rice was made perfect! The over easy egg is the right egg for this type of meal. And the garlicky spiced vinegar was the bonus! Thank you Filipino folks here I love it! ”

“ Turo Cafe and Grill is one of the few places in the Bay Area to get good quality, Filipino food. Turo serves the same dishes that I grew up with at home. In the past, I've ordered popular dishes, including: pancit (noodles), silog (breakfast combos w/egg), pork sinigang (tamarind soup), BBQ skewers, and of course, LUMPIA. It's rare to order lumpia shanghai (finger food pork egg rolls) at such a girthy size. And there's is kinda girthy for a shanghai. Believe me, I've had shanghai in other places which were either "too skinny" and/or "too short". There's one place I know of that tends to roll their shanghai in extra wrappers to almost deceive customers that it's actually filled with enough meat! LOL. In any case, Turo's Shanghai is "fat, tasteful and meaty" for the discerning lumpia lover in you! Turo Cafe deserves 4.5 stars!!! @feastyle approved! The Turo Cafe storefront makes the store look as if it's heavily busy because of outside traffic, but I've developed a "system" on how to work with here. LOL Otherwise, everything has been great since the food is so tasteful they bring back memories of the quality Pinoy dishes I know and love. ”

“ If the world had a potluck, it would closely resemble Filipino cuisine. Over the centuries, between colonization, imperialism and the rise of global migration, the influence of international culinary in the Philippines has been ongoing and immense. You name it, from indigenous, to Spanish, Asian, American and every other cultures that have chosen to migrate to the Philippines, it has made it into the mixture. Turo is a great place to sample Philippine cuisine and it's all prepared and all you have to do is point at the dish you want and it's served to you. In fact, that's exactly what the name of the place means, Turo = Point. Okay, you got the point. ”
