♦ Tribu Grill ♦
Tribu Grill is just wonderful if you are a fan of Filipino and Southeast Asian food like we are! People rave passionately about the food here and they come back time after time for the incredible dining experience. We love the tuna sisig and the chicken bbq, and we also enjoy the lychee and mango smoothies paired with just about anything on the menu! Be sure to try the binabagoong rice too, and the sinigang! Wow. You'll go wild over the dishes that they serve here, that's for certain. You can find Tribu Grill on El Camino Real between Crystal Springs Road and San Felipe Avenue.
♦ Patio Filipino ♦
You may not expect to see two Filipino restaurants one after another on this list, but we enjoy them both so much that we couldn't decide which one to leave off! Really, we'd recommend trying both. We're sure you'll enjoy them as much as we did! The crispy pata is one of the greatest things in the world, literally rated one of the 100 World's Best Foods according to Saveur Magazine! The steamed rice is also excellent, and the pork sisig is just incredible. You will not believe the flavorsor here. Also be sure to try the lechon kawali! You'll be able to locate Patio Filipino on El Camino Real between San Benito Avenue and Santa Lucia Avenue.
♦ BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse ♦
BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse will really blow your mind both in terms of the food and the drinks! We love their perfectly cooked pizza, their flavorful pasta, their incredible stuffed potatoes, and their surprisingly good sandwiches! Even the basics are just amazing here. The service is very friendly but sometimes a bit slow. However the food makes it worth the wait. Our favorite cocktail here is the pomegranate margarita! That one will really quench your thirst and it pairs well with any dish. The location of BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse is on El Camino Real near the intersection with Commodore Drive.
♦ Don Pico's Restaurant ♦
Don Pico's Restaurant has the kind of Mexican food that you probably haven't been able to find up to now even here in this mecca of Mexican food, California! Everybody that we know just loves it here. It's very comfortable, so you can just come right in and enjoy a delicious burrito or taco, and how about that mouth watering chorizo fundido? Their shrimp dishes are all very good too. We've really enjoyed their steak tacos and halibut veracruz too! You can find Don Pico's Restaurant on El Camino Real between Jenevein Avenue and Taylor Avenue. Very highly recommended!
