2023-06-10 23:34:39This restaurant is a remarkable dining destination that not only offers tasty Filipino food but also provides an immersive experience where you can truly taste and feel the Pinoy delicacy. During our visit, we had the pleasure of trying their mouthwatering dishes, and the flavors were absolutely delightful.The menu showcases a wide variety of traditional Filipino favorites that capture the essence of Pinoy cuisine. From classic dishes to lesser-known specialties, every bite was a true testament to the rich flavors of Filipino cooking. The authenticity of the food allowed me to experience the true essence of Pinoy delicacies.Moreover, I must mention the exceptional service provided by our server. He was incredibly accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was memorable. From explaining the different dishes to offering recommendations, he made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. His attentive and friendly demeanor added an extra touch of satisfaction to our visit.While we initially went there specifically for the kamayan experience, I discovered that they offer a range of other delectable options as well. Even though we didnt have the opportunity to try the budol fight or kamayan, a communal dining experience where you dig into a shared spread with friends or family, I am definitely looking forward to returning to experience it. Their commitment to providing not only delicious food but also an enjoyable and immersive dining experience is truly commendable.In conclusion, if youre looking for a place where you can indulge in the authentic flavors of Filipino cuisine, Villa Manila is a must-visit. The tasty food offerings, combined with the warm and accommodating service, create a memorable dining experience. Whether youre enjoying their kamayan feast or joining a budol fight, this restaurant promises a culinary journey through Pinoy delicacies that will leave you wanting to come back for more.#LetsGuide

2023-08-29 05:47:24I brought my Filipino family visiting from the east coast here, and they absolutely LOVED it! Even though they are a hard bunch to impress, I was very happy to make it known that quality Filipino food was accessible - not greasy, overly salty but well-made! We got lots of dishes to share so bring a group to be able to try them all!

2021-06-25 00:12:23Had to do some indoor dining while visiting San Diego. This Filipino restaurant did not disappoint. Great customer service and food prepared well. Restaurant was not practically empty with 1-2 other tables filled. There were lots of take out or delivery service pick ups.

2019-01-06 04:11:24We had the family style dinner where they put banana leaves on the table and all the food on top of it. Its a fun concept but your hands get real greasy (they do provide water to rinse your fingers).The food was good and so was the service. In my opinion the beef was the best. The coconut stew was really good too but a little spicy. This is a great place to go with a large group. I would go with a group of at least 4. Otherwise, it will be too much to share.

2023-03-04 01:51:16Good service, nice environment, reasonable price but the food is salty. The chicken adobo was salty and the pansit was salty and juicy.

2023-07-18 18:13:21Went here 2021 on a 4th of July date with a former boyfriend before he got deployed. The waiters and MC made it very special. Regardless, Beautiful atmosphere, old school vintage Manila. So romantic too perfect for couples and family. Excellent food, high quality!!! Remember growing up in Manila and loving these dishes and this restaurant did them justice

2021-06-28 03:44:23The food and service were amazing! First time dining in there, was recommended by my lady who is Filipino. So if youre looking for some delicious and authentic Filipino food, Villa Manila is thee spot to go! Stop in and try out the menu. My fav dish, as of now, has to be Kare-Kare. Is recommend trying that and the Lechon!
