My coworker and I came here on our lunch break for the first time recently. We dined in. We got the Kare Kare and Ube Horchata, Lumpia, and Ube Pancakes. The Kare-Kare was well presented, you can chose lechon or beef, I chose lechon and I am glad I did. The lechon was perfectly crunchy. Some bites were super salty though. I appreciate that they put the bagoong on the side so you ca control how much you want. the ube horchata was very yummy. My coworker enjoyed her pancakes. Lumpia was also delicious. Food took a bit to come out, but not too long. They are a bit on the pricier side but i feel like the portions make up for it. Our waiter was very nice. Now, today I ordered takeout. I wasn't feeling great so I decided to go with Bulalo (bone marrow soup. Around $22 after tax) I will say every
Lechon Loco was our first time here and we really liked the whole Filipino-Latin fusion idea. There were six of us and we all ended up trying a little of everything. Overall, most of us enjoyed our food. I really liked the ube French toast and the pork bagnet chicharrons on the side — both were really good. My little one ordered the enchilada plate and the portion was bigger than we expected. I tried it and thought it was okay, just not something I’d personally order again. We went on a Saturday for lunch and it wasn’t very busy. We were seated right away, and the space seemed big enough to easily handle a group of about 10 people. I’d definitely come back. There were a lot of things on the menu I still want to try, and I wish I had taken more photos.
We absolutely loved our experience here! Everyone was friendly from the moment we walked in, the restaurant was clean and inviting! The real showstopper is the food, we had a hard time deciding but after some recommendations we settled on trying the Lumpia to start, it was crispy so flavorful. Then we ordered the Ube Waffles with Wings (garlic fish sauce) and the Lechon Belly - Crispy pork belly, sunny side up egg, pork adobo rice. Both were fantastic! The waffles were fluffy and decadent with an ube sauce to drizzle on, the wings were crispy and succulent. The Lechon Belly was fresh and delicious. The service was amazing, enough check ins to keep our drinks refilled but not feel like too much. We are already planning our next trip back!
Finally found the time to make it into Lechon Loco. The concept of Filipino x Latin food intrigued me awhile ago, and I am so very glad I stopped in. Cute space with a dining room and separate bar that has a full view of the kitchen. I ordered their signature Lechon Belly, which was a large portion of crispy fried pork belly aside a pork fried adobo rice with an over easy egg and veggie garnish to eat there and an order of lumpia to go. The portion was big enough that I had to take some home and everything tasted fantastic. The pork belly was crispy on top and perfectly tender under. Rice wasn't overcooked, egg was gorgeous, vegetables were a nice texture difference. It came with a home made brown sugar based ¿Vinegrette? That added complexity and a subtle sweetness to anything you dipped
My wife and I came here for our wedding anniversary brunch. 10 out of 10 Highly recommend. The atmosphere is very clean and cultural with the artwork on the wall, bringing that Mexican and Filipino heritage to the art as well as on the food menu. We had the Lumpia, Sisig and Pampano. Both our coffees with Ube and the cream cheese topping, which surprisingly made them taste really good. Prava was our waitress and was very friendly and even give her a big tip. Definitely coming back🙏🏾🙏🏾🇲🇽🇵🇭
