Parking is really hard to come by. Food was pretty good. For better tasting pancit, I think Little Ongpin on Beverly Blvd. are well-seasoned with it's soy sauce, noodles, and vegetables. The 12pc Siopao is delicious and $3 cheaper in this branch than the Beverly Branch.

1/2 minute read: If memory serves me, Little Ongpin has been here since the late 1980’s. The menu you see there has been (basically) the same. There’s nothing to complain about that. They provide a good number of dishes that are popular with their culture. You’ll see Pancit Bijon, Pancit Miki, fried fish, Kari Kare, Sisig and other standards. If you would like more information related to those menu items, I’ve found that YouTube can help you. Just go to YouTube and search the name, like PORK SISIG. There’s street parking and just next door, there’s a parking lot but I’m not sure if it’s private. As I mentioned, LITTLE ONGPIN has been open at that same location for some 35 years, meaning- they have a faithful Following, including my wife and I. My wife loves the Pancit Bijon, and I’m not picky- I like it all BUT I won’t eat a dish made with Blood. The service is good, courtesy, fast and easy. Eat in or take out. The Servers are helpful and friendly. If you can, leave them a tip. OK, I’ll have more photos later on, thanks.

I'm from MD. What was for dinner tonight - Filipino food. I've never been able to just go to a Filipino resteraunt because there weren't any around. In Thai town, i found a really good homestyle Filipino resteraunt. At home I would have to wait for dad or someone in the family to make something. Or beg -Pancit MK with meat and seafood. - Miki a type of fresh thick flour noodle. Bihon is a thinner variant of a rice noodle. -Lumpia - pork spring roll -Pandesal - roll light ans airy with a hint of sweetness. It was all really good.

I think it's Filipino. The Gawgaw Maki is the best soup I've ever had. You have to go just for that. If visit LA again, I will absolutely go there again just for that soup. Don't miss the calamansi juice either.

Best Pancit and Lomi! They make it when you order so it's always fresh and tasty! I phone my order ahead so I don't have to wait.

Gosh. You can’t go wrong with any selection. Hands down the best lumpia in all of Los Angeles. Their other location on Beverly is similar but the service staff is much nicer and less rude/snappy when you ask for things. There’s somehow always street parking when we go and we go once a week. I really enjoy the baked/steamed goods and always love the siomai.

Authentic Filipino. We ordered the Maki without noodles (9.50), Miki Bihon (9.50), Kikiam 2pcs (12.50). Paid around $40 including 3 canned drinks. Order the Kikiam. It was so good and really reminded us of home. The miki bihon was legit as well. I liked the Maki but my dad said it should not have ginger in it. Must try little hole in the wall.
