Casa Filipina Bakeshop And Restaurant - Filipino restaurant in Phoenix - 3531 W Thunderbird Rd, USA

Was so excited to try this place, as I'm visiting from out of state where we don't have many Filipino dining options. The food was PHENOMENAL! We all ordered different dishes and shared, and loved every single one. We also got an ube cheesecake and flan, which were perfectly not too sweet - so so good!! Planning to stop back in again to get some baked goods before we return home. 😊

I'm a little disappointed with this place. How can you look another Filipino in the eye and give him skinless longanisa. Lol. That's like ordering q burger and getting it in lettuce instead of a bun. I'm jappy to find a Filipino place in AZ that has longsilog but they use skinless longanisa. Garlic rice did not taste the most fresh. A few bites had that taste right before rice spoils. Not sure if they reheated the garlic rice for used old white rice. I suspect the latter. This place should do well but it's a little outdated. The food wasn't that bad. The kaldereta was actually pretty good. I think with a little redesign, this place can do well. The food, except skinless longanisa, was very good.

Although we did not sit down in the restaurant, we took our food to go. The restaurant was quiet and nicely decorated. No one was in the restaurant anyway, it was empty on a Saturday @1:15-1:30 pm. I ordered the chicken isasla, and it was good until I saw that my chicken was undercooked. The egg rolls were good, and the pork belly was good at least.

An exquisite gastronomic find at Casa Filipina Bakeshop and Restaurant. The Filipino cuisine is tasty and authentic, and it is expertly prepared. For those looking for rich and homey Filipino cuisine, it's a great option because of the welcoming atmosphere and attentive service. Excellent choice for a fulfilling meal experience.

We are visiting from out of state and wanted to try a couple of Filipino restaurants in surrounding Phoenix area in the short time that we have here in AZ. Casa Filipino is the third restaurant we visited and the experience was not as pleasant as with the other restaurants we have visited so far. The price on their menu was clearly outdated and obsolete since the price that was charged to us when we were ready to pay was about $4-$5 more. Why can’t they have the menu prices changed? It doesn’t cost much to have it changed (at Kinko’s or some other similar place). It’s just annoying to be looking at the prices knowing how much roughly it will cost you to eat a good meal at this place. It felt like being lured and deceived to order menu items supposedly because of the reasonable price being presented only to be surprised by the price change after. Talk about the lack of truth in advertising in their menu prices and it’s so disappointing. Additionally, why can’t they serve tap water? We have bottled water in the car and having to order bottled water because they can’t provide tap water is a bit wasteful (for us).

First time trying this place. Unbelievable! The staff treated us like family and made us feel welcomed. Everyone was down to earth. The second you walk in and order you will think that the place is inconveniently small, up until you are seated. They do not allow any menus at the tables (due to covid) so they ask that you please order prior to being seated. You pay after you eat. The restaurant inside has spread apart seating and smooth piano-jazz music playing while the aroma of the bakery and food fill the air. It smells heavenly. The service was a little slow, but it seems to be as though they have a small staff. Take out is optional. I ordered 3 dishes and 2 desserts. Chicken Adobo which is bone-in chicken marinated with vinegar, garlic, and soy sauce with rice. Comes with about a cup serving each of rice AND noodles. 10/10. Mouth watering tender meat packed with flavor and covered in thick, rich gravy that pairs perfectly with white rice. It will have you licking every last drop. A must try! Pansit Bihon Guisado which is rice noodles with sauteed vegetables and small pieces of chicken. 8/10. Lemon elevates the noodles. The carrots were sweet, the chicken was soft. Nice seasonings. Squeeze a lemon over the top and stir noodles. It really adds a loving flavor and pairs nicely with lemon. If you enjoy rice noodles I would recommend this dish. Lumpias which is 9 small Filipino style crunchy egg rolls that come with sweet chili sauce. 10/10. When I say crunchy. I mean it! If you have a big party you're going to want to buy 2 orders. They are addicting! Delicious inside and out. Crispy. Crispy. Crispy! If you like spring rolls, egg rolls, or anything fried and crunchy. I highly recommend these little guys. Must try! For dessert I took home a Canoli and finally got to try their famous fluffy mini Ube Cheesecakes which are made with purple yams. When I took that first bite of the cheesecake I was blown away. Was not expecting it to taste THAT good. Nothing like American cheesecake. Incredibly smooth and leaves your mouth drooling for more. If you love cheesecake I highly recommend. Must try! I will be going back. I have to try more. Round 2. Fight! 🙏

This place is very nostalgic. They offer both food and pastries at this location. The food is reminiscent of food my mother cooked growing up. The food was cooked fresh and well seasoned. The pastries are delicious, a bit pricey but worth it. If you are Filipino or craving Filipino food it’s a must

We stayed knowing there would be a wait due to a large group and that was not an issue at all. First, the gentleman took our order and added something we had not asked for but caught it before we sat down. Lumpia was great! Sadly, the only great I can say. We ordered chicken adobo and a stewed beef. After about a 20 min wait, the stewed meat came out and told the chicken would be right out. 15 min later and no chicken. So now my meal was cold and my husband didn't have his meal. Now, 2 employees/owners walked past us several times and not a word. I finally stopped the gentleman and asked how much longer it would be, and he looked at me, questioning, you haven't gotten your other order?...clearly seeing that only one of us had a plate. At this point, my meal was cold, and the experience really ruined the meal. As we went to pay, we were asked how we liked it? We said not that much and was asked why. An attentive owner would have already known why. You served 1 person at the table and probably gave the other meal to someone else but left us waiting 15 minutes. We espessed that despite the meat being tender, it was too vinegary for our taste. We would have expected a response like, that is our style, sorry you did not enjoy it. Instead, we got a bit of a defensive attitude and...well that is our style, and lots of people like it. I am certain a lot of people like the place due to the reviews, but you asked US why WE didn't like it. We have no plans to return, but I would hope that you take just a bit more consideration on how to treat new customers. I am sure the food is good, but the experience ruined it for us.
