Filipiniana is as traditional Filipino food as you can get. Majority of the restaurant’s patrons are through their catering service. They do have an option for dine in for their daily buffet. The restaurant itself is not a place you will bring a date to, probably not even your wife or parents, unless you were born in the Philippines and, know and accept that Filipino boomers only care how your food taste. And that’s Filipiniana’s greatest strength….the food! Once you start seeing and smelling the food, it will bring you back to your childhood or your grandmother’s house. Majority of the traditional dishes are available everyday and are also available to take out. Chicken and pork adobo are a must. Pork sisig shld be on the list to try. Menudo and caldereta are also available. White rice and garlic rice (!) as well as pancit bihon are always part of the layout. Diniguan, the infamous pork blood stew is a favorite amongst the Filipinos. If you want to try a variety of traditional Filipino dishes, Filipiniana shld be on your list.

This would be a good place to go if you want to try Authentic Filipino food. The buffet has a lot of choices. Taste of the food on offer was really good. Reasonably priced. Very friendly service.

Had been craving Filipino cooking lately. Specifically my dad's cooking, but sadly, he is no longer with us.
Whenever we were out though, and he wanted a quick lunch of our native foods, he would choose Filipiniana restaurant. The buffet is brimming of freshly made and hot variety of Filipino dishes like pancit palabok, chicken and pork adobo, kare-kare and lechon kawali just to name a few. My mom, husband and I went there during covid time and they had plastic gloves, hand sanitizer and disposable plates and plastic ware as precaution to the virus spreading.
The buffet wasn't at its normal filled food capacity but the dishes they had out was still plentiful and delicious. I would say, I was alarmed that they did not have any of the sweets that's usually on the other side of the hot foods, but when I mentioned it to one of the friendly attendants, she happily offered up that they had a few kinds in the back and promptly brought out some sapin-sapin and bibingka.
Craving was satisfied. The restaurant is clean and welcoming even though the location could be better. I would recommend this place for people who want to try Filipino cooking and also to kababayan coming from out of town.

The BBQ Chicken is beyond belief!
All dishes were very good.
The restaurant has a nice feel to it.
All of the dishes were kept replenished so nothing ever ran out.
The website said buffet was $7.99 on Tuesday but owner Minda said $9.99.
She made good on the $7.99 price but it took a bit of work.

Roasted pork belly was excellent. Everything else, was cooked far beyond my taste. I will try another Filipino restaurant, as I do not know if this is a "thing" for their cuisine.

This place has so much variety of foods and so flavorful. The staffs are very friendly. The lady who took care of my to go food gave me an extra cup filled with vegetables for my sinigang that was nice of her. Thank you ate. Besides having flavorful foods, this place feels homey and pleasant and it's very clean. I'll keep coming back to this place
