Great place for an authentic taste of the Philippines! The crispy pasta is well done, very crispy skin and the inside is tender. The dinuguoan is also reminiscent of the Philippines. Their Halo Halo is very refreshing and filled with all the ingredients that make it great, topped with Ube ice cream. They split our Halo Halo so we could share it, which was just right. They also have home made baggoong that you can order. It'squite good and has a well balanced flavor. Shout out to our waiter David who was very enthusiastic, made great recommendations and juggled many tables while providing great service.

I've been here a couple of times, but my most recent visit with family was disappointing. As someone with allergies, I try to ensure that the dishes I order are safe. In the past it's been fine, but for some reason the chef this time happens to put patis in every dish except the lechon kawali. I typically order the dinuguan, chicken adobo, beefsteak and garlic rice. However, our server informed us that this particular chef likes to put patis in everything! Unfortunately our meal was very limited. On the other hand, our server was amazing! He really did his best and it was upsetting to hear the chef yell at him for asking questions when I brought up my allergy concerns. A lot of Filipino food places I've been going to have been a hit or miss due to the lack of consistency. It seems whoever is the chef that day just cooks however they want without any consideration for guests with dietary restrictions.

Home of The classic Filipino foods! Best crispy pata and Kare Kare. I also ordered their crispy fried chicken, and it was juicy and savory. Got the lechon kawali as well. Their drink sagot Gulaman is really good! My only concern is they share their restroom with the hotel next door. Service was good and we were seated and greeted well. We will definitely go back!

If you’re craving authentic Filipino comfort food, Barrio Fiesta in Upland delivers in every way. From the warm, welcoming service to the bold, nostalgic flavors, this spot truly feels like home. We ordered a great variety of dishes, and every single one was a hit in generous portions: • Crispy Pusit – Perfectly fried, light, and crispy without being greasy. Seasoned just right and incredibly addictive paired with vinegar. • Kare Kare – Rich, creamy peanut sauce with tender meat and fresh vegetables. Deeply flavorful and comforting — one of the highlights of the meal. Paired with yummy bagoong. • Lechon Kawali – Crunchy skin with juicy, tender pork inside. Exactly how lechon kawali should be done. • Lumpiang Sariwa – Fresh, light, and flavorful, topped with a savory-sweet sauce that balanced everything beautifully. To drink, we had Sago Gulaman and Kalamansi juice, both incredibly refreshing and the perfect pairing for the richness of the food. The Kalamansi juice had just the right tang, while the Sago Gulaman was lightly sweet and cooling. Portions were generous, flavors were spot-on, and everything tasted freshly prepared. There’s also a separate area for small functions. Ba
