Fil-Am Bakery & Fast Food

Good, home style food for a decent price. Staff is welcoming. Nice little hole in the wall to scratch that filipino food itch from time to time. Eating there and used them for catering. Recommend for both.

1 STAR FOR DECENT FILIPINO FOOD/PRICE!1 STAR FOR FAITH AND HOPE FOR CHANGE!NOT CONSISTENT WITH THEIR HOURS!NOT CONSISTENT WITH FOOD PREPARED!HIT OR MISS! WE'RE WAISTING GAS AND TIME EVERY TIME WE COME HERE!WASTING OUR BREATHS CALLING ALL THE TIME TO ASK WHAT FOOD IS ALREADY PREPARED!WE HAVE GIVEN THEM PLENTY OF CHANCES! WE WERE LOYAL CUSTOMERS, BUT WE ARE DONE!We have been coming here ever since we moved to North Natomas area April 2024. We know the flow of this restaurant. Hours say open from 9AM to 730PM but it changes each day. They say they have certain entrees each day that they make, but not true. Once an entree is sold out, they won't make any more. We're tired of trying to call figuring out what food they have prepared each day, so we don't waste gas on coming and it's either that entree or entrees are sold out, not prepared and or no entrees have been prepared at all. Most of the time no one answers the phone. One morning, it was like 10AM, we thought every thing was prepared cause it says they open at 9AM. We came in and they had no food prepared at all. They apologized and said every thing will be ready after noon. My husband and I were really hungry, so we went to get dimsum instead.Our last straw was a Wednesday after noon like 3PM, we thought no need to call, we learn from last time that it's probably better to come after noon and every thing is prepared. We came in and there's no more pancit and on the window it said they're closing at 6PM instead of 730PM (their usual business hours). WTF? So, what if we came in at 7PM? We would have wasted our time and gas again. IF THEY DON'T HAVE ALL FOOD PREPARED/RAN OUT OF CERTAIN ITEMS, AT LEAST BE CONSISTENT WITH YOUR HOURS!!! We're thinking maybe there are not much people who are buying? Yeah, we understand the restaurant business is tough. Especially for a Filipino restaurant in North Natomas. Also, there's not much Filipino's here. BUT even then!!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE FILIPINO TO LOVE FILIPINO FOOD! You gotta keep trying! Maybe try A BBQ stand like FIL-AM in Daly City. That shiii be craccckinnn!!! Even if they sell out of their entrees, their bbq makes up for all that!!! Try other things to run a better restaurant!!! We see all these good reviews. Are we just unlucky? Sorry, not sorry. PRAYING FOR THIS RESTAURANT!

Great customer service and amazing Filipino food! Unsuspecting bakery and Filipino eatery in Natomas ran by a really sweet woman who encouraged me on what to try after I told her it was my first visit. She told me to go with the combo meal as it would give me a few options. Great flavor on the pancit. Definitely will be something I order on every visit. The Filipino menudo is similar to a stew and came with pork's the potatoes and carrots were so soft and the gravy/sauce was full of hearty flavors. I'd love to eat this on a cold day. The sausages were meaty and packed a lot of flavor despite their small size. Total for the combo was $15. A really big plate of food that can be shared so I'd say it's worth it!

If there was 0 stars I would rate them that, I ordered to go, I get to the restaurant and they said 5 min wait, so I waited. Waited for 25 Min more just to ask what's going on with my food she said 10 more min for the rice, mind u it's a buffet and I watched 10 people in line get rice, place is a dumpster, I don't recommend anyone.

I frequently visit this restaurant to pick up food for our parties (mainly their pancit and lumpia) which have become staples at our family gatherings. One thing to note is that the restaurant's opening hours can be a bit inconsistent. Sometimes they're ready for business at 10 am but other times, it might be closer to 11 am which is due to the food not being ready, and because of this, I usually place my order ahead of time for pick up in the afternoon when they're most likely open.Despite this, we keep coming back because it's one of the few places in the Natomas area that offers truly authentic Filipino cuisine. The food here is OUTSTANDING!! Every time we order their lumpia and pancit, it tastes freshly cooked, and it's clear that they take great care in preparing their dishes. My family and friends always rave about the food whenever I bring it to our parties, and it's become a crowd favorite.The restaurant itself has a very Filipino vibe--it's not full on decorated, but it's warm, homely, and practical. It reminds me of the regular eateries in the Philippines, where the focus is on the food and hospitality rather than the decor. The simplicity of the space actually adds to its charm, making you feel comfortable and welcomed as soon as you walk in (especially the smell of the food!). This restaurant is truly a hidden gem, and for anyone looking for authentic Filipino food in the area, this is one of the places you need to try! The food quality is consistently excellent, and the ambiance is reminiscent of the familiar and comforting places back home. If you're in the mood for some delicious pancit and lumpia, or any other Filipino dishes, this is definitely the place to go.

As they say, "nothing is like a home-cooked meal." Nothing compares to my dad's Pilipino food. But for a quick-fix for fast Pilipino food, I head to Fil-Am. (5 stars belong to dad) ;)Although it says "bakery" in their name, it's more of a Turo-Turo (point-point) restaurant. You point to the meal items you want. I usually order the 2-item combo (2 main meat dishes, & side of pancit or white rice) -see below.Come with a big appetite or be prepared for left overs! I think that's why even dine-in orders are placed in to-go boxes!!Parking has never been an issue, the owners & workers are pleasant, & the ambience is more "eat & run" than eat & linger. The food is hearty... you'll definitely be full! What are you waiting for-- try some Pilipino turo-turo food!!

I would like to update this review because I didn't get a chance to post pictures of their food.I believe pics are worth a thousand words. But pics also don't do justice and you have to go there to try for yourself! The staff is always super nice!

This establishment is in a shopping center with ample parking. The staff is very friendly. The food is prepared ahead of time and on heated trays, like at that fast food chinese place.I always get the combination with all pancit and two entrees. I usually get the menudo (pork with vegetables) and lechon (roast pork). This place can get busy during lunch, but it is worth the wait.

This is a great place to grab a quick lunch or get introduced to Filipino food. They have bbq sticks on some days and a variety of authentic Filipino dishes. Pancit combo with rice and entrees of your choice is staple! They have quick service and pay system! Ambience is lowkey and clean, perfect for small or lunch take out!

Good Filipino food with good pricing. Great for catering events. Great service. Best lumpia in Natomas.
