Estrellita

This Filipino restaurant was delicious. We are from the Bay Area and have had many good restaurants to eat at in San Francisco and Daly City. This matched that very well. Meals are huge and well prepared and served.

This was my first experience with true Filipino cuisine, and it absolutely did not disappoint. The food was phenomenal. It’s a small, cozy spot with only six tables inside, so space is limited. Normally it’s first come, first served, but I highly recommend checking their website for reservation information. If you can snag a table inside, great—but they also have a few outdoor tables on the sidewalk, which are a nice option. There were five of us in our party, and we ordered a variety of dishes so we could try a little of everything. Every single dish was outstanding. We even shared bites from each other’s plates, and there wasn’t a single miss. You have to try the ube (purple) drink—it was incredible and something I’d go back for alone. Portions are generous, so expect to take food hom

We were walking to another restaurant when we ran into Estrellita. And I’m so glad we did! The best Filipino food I’ve had in a while! I got the lechón Kawali with coconut rice and salad and it was out of this world! The meat part was juicy and the skin was perfectly crispy. My spouse got lumpias and chicken bbq skewers with rice & fries and that also was very tasty. The food was overall delicious, the place was a bit small inside but definitely worth it!

Ate here 2/20/26 as a birthday treat to myself! I ordered the longanisa, chicken skin, and chicken inasal/ribs combo. The Combo plate can definitely be shared, comes with 2 sides. Everything was so delicious, I almost got full with just my appetizers. Taste is not a fusion, but authentic Filipino flavors!

Loved the food, great value for money and authentic Filipino flavors. We liked the lumpia, longganisa, ribs and lechon kawali. The Ube ice cream to cap it off as well. I wish they had a larger menu but I understand why that's not practical right now with a small kitchen, hopefully the expand soon!
