Tindahang Pinoy

Reviewed on 3/26/24Cuz and I stopped into this cute little combo restaurant/food market. The nice lady in back of the front cash register took our order, and we sat down in the small restaurant area in the back and we ordered egg rolls (lumpia), and Bistek Tagalog.Both of us felt like both of the foods we ordered had were well cooked but could have used more seasoning.The store has an extensive variety of Phillipine dry foods, seasonings, snacks, and frozen food.

Fantastic little grocery store that has a small kitchen that makes all your favorite Filipino foods.I love Filipino food. I was in the area, and I bought a bunch of treats for dinner. I bought some lumpia, pancit bihon and kawali. The prices were very reasonable. And the food was absolutely delicious. My husband is now a Pinoy food lover too!They also have a selection of Pinoy groceries (no fresh fruits or veg, though, so you'll need to stop by MD Oriental to round out your meal).There was only one person working there, so I expect you could wait for a long time if there are multiple customers. I was the only person there, and I only waited 10 minutes for my food. He was very nice and chatty and welcomed me to sit while I was waiting.

Tasty treats in a comfortable spot! Filipino food is my favorite and this small spot did not disapoint! Prices are very reasonable and portions and the perfect sizes. I wish there were more places like this around and we will be back!

Great Filipino store with great homemade Filipino food! As soon as you enter the store you get blasted by some delicious smells. I got the dinuguan and rice. Tasted amazing. The meat was extremely tender, literally melts in your mouth. Mixed the two together for the best combination of flavor. The staff at the store are super nice too. Friendly customer service, guy working there is full of smiles. The ambiance was calm. The store also has many Filipino items you can purchase.You'll find almost everything you need to make your traditional Filipino meals or feast. They have canned products, dry food, refrigerated food and frozen food available. You can also get boxes you can fill up with your favorite items to send to your families or friends back in the Philippines!Honestly if you're not Filipino and you want great Filipino food, or if you've moved from California and you're craving Filipino food come here! It will not disappoint.

Don't expect anything fancy when you come in here since it's a true hole in the wall place that serves authentic Filipino food. You walk in and you're greeted with a small market where they sell some Filipino grocery items - from snacks to frozen items to condiments and everything in between.We specifically came here for food so we headed to the back of the market to order. It's a quaint place with only 2 tables and a kitchen. We placed our order and within 15 mins, we were served with tocilog, daingsilog, lumpia Shanghai and gulaman drink. Everything we had was delicious and took me back home. It was very hot in the eatery area which is why I docked a star (but truly feels like the weather in the Philippines if you want that authentic feel).

I took my mom and my brother when they visited last week for lunch. Ambiance is as I described before, small eating area, crowded by refrigerators and boxes. We ordered an array of food: dinuguan, lechón kawali, lumpia, fried bangus, and pinakbet. In my excitement, I forgot to take pictures, but the food came out quick, hot, and delicious as always. My mom and brother loved it. It was definitely "lutong bahay", food that is cooked in most Filipino homes. I'll always come back to this store when I'm in the area. I learned that this store has been here for twenty years and I hope they're here for twenty years more.

This place is good for Filipino goods! They also have a little kitchen inside where you can order legit Filipino dishes. I recommend getting their dinuguan and kare kare! So good and it hits home! The prices can be a little higher than other places though. The workers/owners are very nice and welcoming. It is pretty small inside so it can be quite difficult to get around especially with few customers. They got ice creams, noodles, frozen goods, canned goods, and all those Filipino snacks you've been craving for!

Best Lechon Kawali around. If you miss Filipino home cooking, this is the place. While you're at it, pickup some groceries.

We've been to many Philippine restaurants in the area over the last 25+ years of being in the area. Everything has been really subpar and just never compared to my mom's cooking. This is EASILY the best Filipino food I've had in the Tampa/St. Pete area. We tried the lumpia, adobo, sisig, and lechon kawali. The lumpia were tasty. I actually never tried the adobo, but my family loved it. Sisig is very different than what I'm used to, but it was still very tasty - has a nice kick to it. The lechon was easily my favorite - crispy, and the sauce was excellent. The store itself is pretty small/tight, but they pack a lot of good items in here. I've been trying to find Royal for YEARS - and we finally found it! Definitely not as good as I remember, but it was very nostalgic for me. The owner is very nice, and they also do Balikbayan boxes (drop-off only) here. We will definitely be back.

We love this place!! I recommend the diniguan and sisig! Bistek is also my favorite! Can't leave without getting the lumpia! Walley and his sister make you feel right at home! This is the best Filipino food in town, they have that place next to the racquet club on fourth street, but I do not recommend it. Hate to leave bad reviews but we couldn't even finish the sisig there, very disappointing unfortunately. This place never disappoints and is very consistent with good food and friendly atmosphere! You can even catch the latest Showtime show from the Philippines while you eat! Get some Ube ice cream to take home for dessert, thank me later!
