We have been ordering food for our family parties from Matthew’s Grill for a few years. It is always good. Our usual orders include a tray lumpia or lechon kawali. Today we added sisig and pinakbet to the order. I really liked the sisig and will add it to future orders.

Wow what a great place! We went for the first time on Saturday and we will be repeat customers for sure. Never having been to an authentic Filipino restaurant we needed some help with the menu. Reymond, the owner, personally walked us through the menu and made suggestions that were fantastic. The food is great and the staff were the best we've ever had at a dining establishment. Marky also came out of the kitchen to check on us and the food. Oh, and it was busy. We got the Lumpia, Tokwa't Baboy, and wings to start - all great. Then the Nanay's Pancit, Sizzling Pork Sisig w/egg, and Kare Kare as main dishes - it was not only fantastic but also a lot of food. The place is super clean, with great staff, and great food - can't ask for more than that. It deserves for than five stars.

We tried the Boodle fight/Filipino Kamayan Feast with 6 people. It was a great experience and very delicious Filipino food! The staff and the owner were very nice and we felt very comfortable! The dessert called Halo Halo was also very delicious! Perfect for summer! Definitely worth trying!

The food here is delicious and truly authentic! It tastes just like my grandma’s home cooked meals. My favorites are the pancit, chicken adobo, pork sisig, and the BBQ. I also enjoy the desserts-halo-halo, buko pandan, & turon. The service here is excellent-every staff person is kind, friendly, and the owner Reymond is great, too. I've come here several times and the food is always great!

This was Authentic Filipino food! Service was amazing. The Pancit was delicious, the Pinakbet was so good, the veggies still had a good bite to them NOT soft and mushy with a super flavorful broth. We added the Garlic rice to sop up that sauce. What a wonderful experience. We had to honor of speaking to the owner after he saw us savor each bite. He recommended a dessert of Turon and we could not turn it down! We had a few other things so we ended up with dinner and lunch as a Togo situation. We will be back! We will be bringing friends! The family style dining option makes it an experience to share with a crowd. We can't wait to show this place off to our other foodie friends. Well Done!!!!!!

This was such an amazing spot! The food was delicious, especially the Sizzling Pork Sisig. If it wasn't so dense and rich, I'd eat it every single day! We also met the owner, Reymond, who is an absolute gem! I'm not local but I plan to revisit if I'm ever in the area. I cannot recommend this spot enough. You can check out my Yelp review for a more in-depth review!

Great first experience here. Friendly and helpful service. The Sizzling Pork Sisig was my favorite, never had anything with this taste/texture combination. Normally I find liver meat to have an off putting odor and texture but happy to say it was not the case here. It, along with the pork belly was very good. The beef in the caldereta was very tender and flavorful. The stew sauce was great to dip the chicken wings in. But in general I felt the chicken wings were a bit underseasoned. Good amount of meat and very crispy though. Finally, we tried the Halo Halo dessert. One of the waiters explained to us how to eat it (mix it up really well in a bowl). I felt the combination of toppings was great and it was the perfect amount of sweetness (not too sweet). The only improvement I would make is to make the shaved ice finer. We have had Taiwanese shaved ice as a comparison and I would say compared to that, many of the ice pieces in this one were a bit too large. So many other things we wanted to try, will definitely be back again soon. Recommend!
