SUBO Filipino Kitchen

Pancit: 10/10 Lumpia: 10/10 Turon: (I wasn't sure if I'd like it) 100/10 The person serving was very nice, gave us the info on eat ingredient and best way to eat (Turon is more of a dessert). Hidden gem next to the Kimball station. They also have a parking lot.

So yum! This cozy counter service Filipino food spot offers a wide array of entree options that you can mix and match with your garlic rice bowl. During our visit, we tried out the crispy & savory fried milkfish Bangus, the tender and well-seasoned Bistec, the rich pork pieces in blood stew Dinuguan, and the crispy pork belly Lechon. Every dish was well seasoned and incredibly comforting. The garlic rice that came with the bowl had very generous portion too. We left very full and satisfied.

It's very unfortunate. Filipino food used to be very affordable. Now it rivals just about any other place with the skyrocketing prices. The food was still good here. The customer service could have been a little better. When we arrived two ladies were sitting down and they weren't very welcoming. Like not a hello, or any type of eye contact. A customer after me received even worse service. The young lady was on her phone with the same no greeting and then finally looked up to place the gentleman's order. We placed an order for their Lumpia with pork. My wife ordered their my wife ordered their Pancit Bihon and I ordered their Tocino breakfast bowl. The Lumpia was very delicious. It had a nice crispy outside and very tasty pork inside and served with a sweet chili sauce. This is a must order at any Filipino restaurant. The Pancit Bihon came with thin stir fried rice noodles, with chicken and vegetables. Just a few years ago, you could get this dish for around 7 to 8 dollars. Now it's $15. But still worth it. You get a lot of food, it's very delicious and filling. My Tocino Breakfast bowl that I got for dinner was really good as well. Although I would have preferred my rice to be more garlicky and more fried, it didn't ruin the rest of the dish. I also would have preferred my fried eggs to not be so over cooked. I like my eggs runny, especially on top of fried rice. The tocino was definitely the highlight of this dish. It was so tender, and just the perfect amount of sweetness to go with the rest of this savory this. Would definitely order this again and will definitely be returning.

The restaurant had a really nice ambiance for a Sunday meal after a church meeting. The food was filling and flavorful. The pork breakfast bowl was a bit dry for me, but the lumpia really hit the spot. Same goes for the halo halo dessert. There's so many items to try on this menu. The service was friendly and efficient. The food came out within minutes. The amount of garlic rice they give you for the breakfast bowl is enough to feed two people haha. Wish they would give you more meat for the sausage breakfast bowl, I only got 3 small pieces. There's plenty of parking in the strip mall area. The bathroom is in the back of the restaurant. You have to walk through the kitchen area to get to it.

SUBO is located in a strip mall and has some free parking in front of the restaurant. The restaurant itself is small and there are only a few small tables inside. I had the palabok (thin egg noodles with chicharon, boiled egg and scallions) and hubby had the tocino (sweet cured pork) breakfast (comes with two eggs and garlic rice). We also shared an order of pork egg rolls. The dishes are large and plentiful. However, the palabok and garlic rice were both lacking in flavor. The pork egg rolls were good but pretty standard. We also shared a halo halo (can ask for it to be prepared when you're ready). It came with various items including ube ice cream, jack fruit, red bean, flan, coconut jelly, and red/green jellies. We were stuffed but couldn't pass up trying the halo halo which was a great end to our meal.

We had held off on dining in at SUBO for a long while since it seemed like even dining in was all disposable-ware. Recently after surveying new Filipino options near home, we figured to hit the circuit and include SUBO, especially after seeing some actual plates in the dine-in photos. Came with just family on a casual Friday dinner and had the place to ourselves. Having options to get different entree sizes (16 oz vs. 32 oz) as well as the pick one/two with rice gives you different approaches. For our family of three, it was best to go with 16 oz entrees and ordering a 16 oz rice separately. We got the palabok, kare-kare, and the langka and side of bagoong was provided. The langka was probably the most mild flavored Indeed the dishes came out on reusable plates/bowls while our personal plates were styrofoam with plastic utensils. We brought our own utensils. Self-serve water was available in styrofoam cups, but sodas are reasonable $1.50. We were there close to closing - and had originally thought to order something sweet. Will do so next time were there earlier. Total was about $50 and we took just under half home - reasonable!

Decent Filipino food, but a tad salty for me. I was concerned about it being greasy or heavy, but it was not the case at all. Menu is a large and I had difficulty deciding what to order quickly. My friend and I shared 2 combo plates and an order of lumpia for $50, which seemed pricier than expected thinking that each combo plate should be about $12.99 before tax per the menu. Not sure why they tacked on $1.50 per entree item so that was an unpleasant surprise, bringing the combo plate to $15.99 they should be more transparent about how they charge or guests may feel cheated. We shared the daing na bangus, bistec, caldereta, and lumpias. My favorite was the lumpias. Rice was a bit dry and probably would've went better with sinigang, which I plan to try next time.

For catering needs:When the holidays arrive catering needs are required (especially when work/life gets too busy to cook). Subo has tasty options that can satisfy in a jiffy. The BBQ'd meat sticks, different types of filled & fried rolls and more. There's an ease to acquiring catering needs. No need to call several days ahead, they will accept orders that can be prepared and picked up within hours. Though I've noticed that when giving them more time to cook and prepare, quality is best. When having lesser times before pickup, quality is different depending on what's being prepared. Ie placing an order when they open and pickup later that afternoon. I've had catering order/pickup times both ways these past holidays. Good to go catering includes:Large orders of lumpia shanghai & or eggrolls. Pork or chicken BBQ skewers.

Fantastic freshly made food here. Had the pancit and it was delicious. Light and super tasty. Very nice people too. And reasonable prices. I'd go back anytime soon and try another dish. Menu looks great with lots of different options and tastes. This place is a gem. Go eat there or have it delivered. Either way just go get some here. You'll be happy you did.

Very good food, very fast and friendly service, and a very reasonable price!Got three things:- Chicken BBQ: very good and flavorful, good texture. Only thing would be that I like a lot of sauce and these didn't have as much as I usually like.- Lumpia: Not usually my favorite but they were so crisp and fresh! Loved their lumpia!- Dinuguan: I LOVE dinuguan so I was looking forward to it. Very good, but different than I have ever had. There was a lot of ginger which I was not expecting. I liked it, but not typical in what I have tried.
