Porky's Lechon and Barbecue

I ordered Lechon at Porky's Lechon for my Mother's Birthday, everybody's excited to the Lechon when starting eating, everybody's disappointed because the Lechon is not cooked all the way... we only eat the skin, but 60 people not enough for skin only, everyone scared to eat the meat..Raw pork is dangerous to your health...I'm not happy, very disappointed... very..Disappointed..

This has been in my drafts and finally posting after many years. I came here with my friends and we did the Kamayan. Service was good, the workers were friendly. I remember not liking that we were squished in a small area. It was hot and hard to enjoy our meal.

Took my mom here for our Saturdate. People were very nice. They were very busy cooking for party trays. They only have 3 tables inside for people to eat in and one of the tables are occupied with pre-ordered lechon. Food was pretty decent. Lechon sisig was a little bland. Lechon was very crunchy and delish. The best dish was the lechong paksiw. Overall, decent. Cant eat here all the time though. I feel like my heart is clogging just looking at all the lechon.

Food and the flavor was just on point, I got a 2 item combo half rice and palabok, then the kaldareta and lechon. Lechon was chrispy skin and meat was moist perfect texture. And the kaldareta fugetaboutit or pugetaboutit. The flavor reminded me of my dad's pulutan back home from lechon and caldareta. I'm going to lie down for a nap, thats how good this was..

Good food, I recommend to everyone,, you won't regret... sooo yummy and friendly workers

I went with my family and not only did they have the friendliest owner and staff, the food was amazing. Especially the LECHON it was really good. They do an awesome job at making authentic filipino food that will make you feel like you are back home in the PH. The restaurant was very welcoming and I will definitely come back with my family and this place is highly recommended.

What can I say - for most Filipinos in San Diego, we all know Porky's because no true Filipino party is happening without lechon. There's only less than a handful of places where you can order whole roasted pig and Porky's is one of them. I'm a bit conflicted because I do love the fact that Mike got this business started to hook us all up with a little bit of home, but I'm saddened because of its inconsistency. I have had really good lechon from here and ones that have been sub par to the point it makes you pissed off because you spent so much money and you receive lechon with practically no flavor, burnt and you waited hours in line to pick it up. I am hoping the passion and pride comes back. I get it, it's a business, but successful business thrives by the consistency in this case food and customer service. Overselling during the holiday season shouldn't be the goal. Capping the order and having a limit and giving great service and serving consistent delicious consistent lechon should be the goal.

Food is always fresh, their lechon is really good. There are some entrees that could e tweaked a bit more, but that's based on personal taste. I gave it 4 stars because the area could be a bit wider for customers and sit down for those that want to sit and eat. The place is clean. The owner is very friendly and professional.

I ordered a lechon combo with pancit and kare kare. I was afraid to try the lechon because it smelled nasty "Amoy Bulok" as in leftover-from-4-days-ago smellthe kare kare was so gross with all the suspicious-looking chunks of fat (not meat) and pancit smelled like it's about to go bad. $16 worth of food went down garbage disposal. So disappointed. Not going back.

We had my grandson's graduation party on Saturday, June 1st at Mast Park in Santee and I had ordered a whole lechon at This place, Porky's lechon and it was the best ever. Mike the owner was so helpful and pleasant to talk to, he precut the lechon and put it together that it looks beautiful. I had over 100 guest and heard all positive words about the lechon. It was awesome.I also ordered lumpia and pancit that was ordered from them and they were also very good. Actually we had a lot of food but these 3 items were completely gone first. I would recommend Porky's Lechon to anyone. When I have another party for sure I will get the lechon from them. Thank you Mike.
