Go big or go home and by go big, go sisig and by go sisig, I mean, go sisig poutine. Filipino food snob over here, but I actually really loved the lumpia. Delicious, cheap, and non-pretentious grub.
Did the lunch rice bowl, pork belly, adobo style. Everything was cooked perfectly but a lil bit on the salty side. The lumpias here are the star. Happy to have a filipino option in the west village.
Keep it simple here and go with the restaurant’s eponym, lumpia ($7) - they're Filipino-inspired spring rolls. Also worth trying: the roasted duck version, with a kick of Sriracha and hoisin sauce. Read more

Last trip here after cashier screwed up my order the 2nd time and insisted that it was my fault. Chicken adobo has no flavor. Get the pork belly instead.
