Phx Lechon Roasters

I saw this pop-up (I'm ass advertised on the Arizona Asians Facebook group, so my fiancé and I went there for lunch on the Fourth of July. They were set up in the parking lot of the Wandering Tortoise. We just moved from Albuquerque recently. We didn't have much of Filipino food there. So I was thrilled to be able to have some!! The pork skewers were delicious. It's a little hard to eat but so good. I liked their Mac salad as well. The lechon was tasty as well :) The service was also pretty good--charming, friendly staff.

Delectable pieces of pork belly and crispy skin - this guy is a genius. The chicken and pork skewers are legit - if you're Filipino, these taste like home. Follow on IG to see where he pops up next - you won't be disappointed!@phxlechonroasters

Wow, lechon baboy just like I remember it from the lechonan (pig roasteries) places back in Manila! The pork is succulent, with crispy skin, and came with rice, mac salad, atchara (pickled shredded green papaya) and the requisite sawsawan (sauces or dips). I followed their schedule and location changes through their facebook page and it's a really good idea to come early - I did, and there was already a line; and at the rate the lechon orders were being dispensed, they must have sold out pretty early too.

My family and I decided to stay in town this Thanksgiving and wanted to celebrate our recent wins with a whole roast pig. We usually go for the chinese style roast pig, but those were pricey and small. I found Phx Lechon Roasters on Yelp, and without ever tasting it first, decided to take a chance and order a whole 32lb charcoal roast pig/lechon from Brian. All my family has to say is: FANTASTIC.Service: Brian is SO kind, attentive, and prompt. I asked if he could somehow chop the roast pig up but assemble it back to its whole form. Originally he said it was impossible. But right before our pickup date, I called to confirm and he let me know he was thinking about it since I asked and he found a way. Sure enough, it was assembled back PERFECTLY! Pickup was a breeze as well. Taste: Skin was CRISPY. Meat was tender and juicy. Just how my family likes it. Not overly salted whatsoever. Dipping sauces were also included. Our friends and family are STILL raving about it (and trust me, they're picky)! I do have to warn everyone... it was torturous bringing the steaming, fragrant pig home in the car without having a bite! OVERALL, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!

On December 3, 2022, PHX Lichen roasters catered a winter festival for us at Mountain View Estates. It was a cold and rainy Saturday but I must brag on Brian and Josh. Not only did they arrive on time but the meal was a 5 star success. The presentation, skill of preparing the meal and their genuine concern for having the meal go off with out hitch was evident for everyone to see.We had over 100 attendees and the people who went back for notably seconds but thirds is proof of how well the food was prepared. My hat off to Brian and I encourage everyone that is considering a true Filipino pig roast to contact Brian. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY! Danny

I have been following them for a long time and I was able to try it for the first time today in Phoenix, they set up a tent by rewined beer and wine. Their post showed a whole roasted pig in Instagram that looked very crispy and moist. Sad to say I was not impressed, maybe it was a bad day but the lechon was dry, no flavor and worse of all the skin was already soo soggy.. I also ordered the ube pandesal and it was dry. The cheese was ok but for $12 for a half dozen??? $2 per pandesal should blow my mind with freshness and flavor but it didnt... I hope its not always like this. PS. This is coming from a Filipino who grew up in the Philippines. On a positive note, their customer service is great! Hope to try them again in a better day...

Long overdue review for a meal I had back in April. I had 2 Filipino friends visiting from out of town so I decided to order a Kamayan meal for us since, well, I've never had one before.It was a great decision! Our meal (I think the dishes change from time to time so better to check with the business) that feeds 4 people features lechon kawali (deep fried pork belly), lechon manok (whole chicken), pancit (stir fried noodles), and lumpia (fried egg rolls). It also comes with rice, Achara (Filipino green papaya relish), brown sauce (mang tomas), sweet and sour sauce, and a vinegary soy sauce. Banana leafs are included too so we could make our own spread at home.The pick up location is in Mesa which was over 25 minutes away from my home. The packaging was great, the fried items were not sealed so they would not steam and become soggy. When we started eating almost an hour later the pork belly and egg rolls were still extremely crispy - those were my favorite two items although I enjoyed everything we got. The chicken which was stuffed with lemongrass, green onions, bay leaves, and garlic was very flavorful. The rice was made stickier than normal so it was easy to pick up and eat with hands which is the traditional way to eat! We also got pandesal filled with ube jam and cheese which we didn't really have room for after the meal but they were great the next day too.I would definitely recommend trying the Kamayan from Phx Lechon Roaster! Great food, value, and over all a lot of fun!

Out in AZ with our large family, and meeting a few other family members. I had the idea to look for a pig roast for the group, but didn't have the resources or skills to cook one myself. From Google, I landed on this company. Brian was EXTREMELY responsive, and on pretty short notice of mike 3 days, he was able to prepare and organize a delivery to us in Scottsdale. We ordered a whole pig (about 35lbs) and 2 of the rotisserie chickens, that came with sauces also. The presentation and cook temperature was excellent. From the crispy skin, to the perfectly cooked pork, we did a pretty serious job carving up, pulling and stuffing our faces. Definitely recommend this for a group - we had 19 adults and a couple kids. Was plenty of food. Not sure we even touched the chicken until a few hours later. Go pick up some pork or see if a delivery will work. Service was great and delivery on the time

Very much recommend the Lechon Kawali and Sisig dish! We bought the Kamayan dinner for 4 but we eat a lot so we felt it wasn't enough for us. It's a good experience if you want a traditional Filipino feast platter.Thank goodness we did add the Sisig and half a dozen ube pandesal. Must try ofcourse! I am sure we will be back for the ube pandesal, Lechon and Sisig! $50 kamayan with Sisig dish $12 and half Dzn ube pandesal $12.

10/10 amazing, friendly family owned and delicious. Couldn't recommend more. The sides, the crispy skin, the sauces.
