D’ Pinoy Joint

We always come here whenever I get the Filipino food craving and I’m too lazy to make it myself. Kathy knows us. We always order for our family gatherings.

Worst service… Don’t expect to even get eye contact if your not philipino or with someone who is philipino… We waited 10 minutes and no joke we weren’t brought waters or menus, sad because the food is good.

Very good food. Tasty and good service. Have been here a couple of times and never disappointed.

Great Filipino food! It’s like straight out of my mom’s kitchen. The kare-​kare, pork binagoongan, bagoong rice and okoy were perfect. Crispy pata was good but would’ve been better if there were no hair visible on the trotters.
The service was fantastic. Food were served quickly and servers were accommodating.

Ordered $ 302 for a baptismal the food came, one order was wrong. But the owner is insisting that the order is right but it’s not won’t order there again.

Ordered catering for 70 pieces of egg roll and was pretty good. Visited the place before ordering it and everyone was very nice and place was clean, no funky smells. The lady worker was very accommodating.

D’Pinoy Joint has to be one of the better Filipino Restaurants I’ve been to. I know this for a fact because I grew up on Filipino food, and I can tell what is great and what isn’t so much.
First let’s talk about food. The food here is pretty darn delicious. I can name a handful of dishes that make the trip to D’Pinoy Joint worth it (sisig, nilaga, bistec, sago gulaman, palabok, bikol express, and etc.).
The food is like how I would imagine my Lola (Lola=Grandma in Tagalog, the official language in the Philippines) would make it. Since she doesn’t live anywhere near me, it was a great comfort food.
Second the atmosphere. The restaurant is small, cozy, and feels like you’re in a distant relatives home.
Then theres always a singer on stage singing songs in tagalog, which is pretty nice. Live performance and a meal that tastes homemade is amazing.
Third the service. The waitresses and waiters are really kind, attentive, and polite. Which really is great, because in some Filipino places the servers have an ‘I don’t wanna serve you’ tone in them.
Overall I really do like this place, a taste of home if you may.

Brought my family here for a brunch. We all ordered silog (tapsilog, tocilog, longsilog). All were delicious served with garlic fried rice and vinegar… yummm! And the price is also very reasonable since they give you big portions! We also ordered pork sinigang, although me myself, I like my sinigang soup really sour. Their sinigang is not too sour for me, but I was okay with it. My family liked it. Vegetables were half cooked too. But its ok, it was still edible.
For dessert, we had the Ube Halaya which was really good, served with macapuno on the side. We also ordered ginataang bilo bilo. It didn’t have a banana! And it was tooo sweet…(in a negative way) lol!
Service was very friendly. We felt like we were just at home. They also have an acoustic band playing. At first, we were like, it’s super early for a band to be playing… we wanted a nice, relaxed, quiet time to eat. But when the grandpa started singing, we couldn’t help but sing with him as well! Haha. You can request a song to him and he’ll sing it. Or if you want, you can get on the stage and sing it yourself while he plays it.
We got there at 11am and nobody was there yet but us. The place started getting busy and packed at 12noon. Good thing we got there a little earlier than everyone else. =P
All in all, good experience! will recommend to any family, relatives and friends!

This was my first time in Vegas and first time eating Filipino food. First of all, they had a acoustic band playing cover songs which was awesome! I ordered the combination fried rice, crispy pata and ended it with the halo halo. The food was excellent and relatively cheap as well. The portions were also enormous! This was the best meal I had in Vegas and I will definitely come back here when I visit Vegas.

Just like aunties used to make.
Whenever I come here for lunch I’m always prepared to wait a while for the food as its a sit down restaurant and not buffet style. But the quality makes up for the wait. Always order the beef sinigang. The portions are large and I always have some to take home ;) #yumyum

First pinoy food in Vegas since I can’t remember when! Usually hit the buffets cause that’s what you do when you’re in Vegas right. Anyways, flip family craving so, flip food it is.
We called in our order for couple of silogs, their special fried chicken and their binagoongan fried rice for pick up. By the time we got to the place for pick up, it was all ready and waiting for us. The counter cashier/​server was very friendly.
Our food taste delicious. My cousin who had the bangsilog complained that the bangus was all head and no meat. The fried chicken taste delicious. The binagoongan was good but a bit on the greasy side.
I wouldn’t mind coming back to this place to try their other stuff!

Everyone is in beast mode the moment they put those food in the table, I couldn’t even take pictures of it. That’s how good the food. try the binagoongan crispy pata with eggplant deeeeeliiiissshhhhhh to the bones! Yummmmmm

If you’re looking for an authentic Filipino food place with great surroundings… you have to try this place!!! My mom’s coworker recommended this place to her and we came here with a big group (family in town) and ordered about 10 different dishes.
This place is so home-​feeling like, and it’s clean, too, which is a plus. I’m Filipino, so I’m very picky with the Filipino food I’m eating, but as soon as I tried that first bite of adobo… win!!! It’s like my taste buds are already tingling as I’m typing this.
The great thing about their menu is that they have a variety of food you can order. If you want some noodles like pancit, they have that. If you like chicken, they have that. If you want some vegetables, they have that as well. Go-​to Filipino food restaurant for sure! And it’s super affordable, nothing is overpriced for the taste that you’re getting. Our bill came up to be $ 144, but there were about 10 of us. They also charge 18% gratuity of parties 7 or more. Service was great, every time we needed some help, we just called someone and they came up right away.

Have I found a Filipino restaurant that I’m finally excited about?! Shockingly, yes!
I grew up eating traditional home made Filipino food, so I definitely know what authentic is. Now that I’m older and live no where near my mom or my aunt, I crave the dishes I grew up eating. I’m always hesitant to eat Filipino food at restaurants because it just doesn’t taste the same. Surprisingly, my non-​Filipino BF was the one who found this joint and took me here. And I’m glad he did.
They have a large menu with pork, seafood, chicken, beef and pancit dishes. They even have the breakfast ‘silog plates that Filipinos know about. Here’s some of the things we’ve tried so far:
Lumpiang Shanghai: little fried egg rolls that are a staple to the Filipino culture. Crispy and freshly fried! ⁵⁄₅
Tortang talong: grilled eggplant omelette. Just like my mom used to make! A little oily, but it was rich and tasty. ⁵⁄₅!!!
Crispy Pata: deep fried pigs feet. This is why Filipinos have high blood pressure. It’s crispy and full of that fatty flavor that we love. ⁵⁄₅
Pancit palabok: a little too much sauce for my liking, but still had that good smokey flavor and the little crunchy pieces of chicharron. 3.5÷5
Sizzling Pork Sisig: pieces of pork belly and pork mask sautéed with onion, sweet peppers and jalapeños topped with a cracked egg. I usually don’t opt for sisig, but this was full of the flavor and the egg added a richer flavor. ⁴⁄₅
Oxtail Kare Kare: oxtails simmered in peanut sauce with tripe and vegetables. Kare Kare is my favorite dish of all time, so I was a little underwhelmed. It wasn’t peanut-​ey enough for me. But I liked that they put the vegetables on top so they wouldn’t get mushy. 2.5÷5
I’ve been satisfied with what we’ve tried. This definitely fulfills that Filipino food craving. Can’t wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.

Very nice little sit-​down Filipino restaurant. The place inside was comforting; very nice and home-​y. There are tables and booths for seating as well as seating by the door and at the «bar» which also acts as their register/​waiter area.
The food was pretty good, too. The presentation of the food is what made it even more appetizing. It reminded me of my Tita’s cooking every time we would have a potluck. I had the sizzling bistek and the kare-​kare.
The bistek was so good. It was perfectly marinated (but could use a little kalamansi) and had the perfect tenderness to it. It’s the perfect pairing with the caramelized onions and steamed rice. The kare-​kare was cooked perfectly, too. The meat was so tender and slid off the bone with the tripe not being too rubbery, and the gulay (veggies) had the perfect crunch and green color to it, so I know it’s fresh and not overcooked. It also had the creamy peanut-​buttery taste to it, just like a classic kare-​kare dish should have.
I will come again with friends so they could try the flavors of the Filipino culture!

I’m always up for trying new restaurants especially in Vegas! This place was recommended to us by my aunt and uncle and I was excited to try out.
The menu here consists of various appetizers (ranging in prices from $ 5.99 to $ 12.99 and consisting of favorites such as lumpiang shanghai, chicaron bulaklak to non-​traditional shrimp tempura and fish balls), noodles (all priced at $ 7.99 and include bihon, canton, miki, malabon and spaghetti) and beef, pork, seafood and vegetable dishes ($ 6.99 to $ 12.99 in price).
My party ordered a lot of seafood dishes and I am not a seafood eater so my review will mostly be on the non-​seafood dishes that I tried.
I first tried the kare kare. Their oxtail kare kare is $ 12.99 and comes with oxtail cooked in creamy peanut sauce with beef tripe and veggies. The dish was small in size for $ 12.99! I liked that there were a good mix of veggies and the oxtail was pretty good as well but there seemed to just not be a lot in this dish. The portion size was small for the price.
The other dish I got try was a little bit of the shrimp tempura. I tried the veggies from the shrimp tempura and was fond of the batter that they had. It was slightly on the sweet side. This dish was also $ 12.99.
Lastly I got to try was the pork binaggongan with eggplant. This is lechon kawali sauteed in shrimp paste topped with fried talong. I normally don’t eat shrimp paste but decided to just try this a little bit and it wasn’t bad. The shrimp paste was not too strong in flavor and the lechon kawali was nice and crispy.
Tastewise the food was good but i think the dishes were fairly small for the prices. This place is kinda pricey and I would’ve expected a more generous portion.
As for drinks, I chose to get a sago gulaman. Theri sago gulaman came with a lot of different ingredients. It had baby sago and red and green gulaman. It was a very pretty drink with a decent amount of sago and gulaman but needed to be more sweet. It was a little on the bland side.
My first experience at D’Pinoy Joint was all in all ok.

I really liked their Filipino food here at this sit-​down restaurant! We came here at lunch time and they had decent lunch specials on the menu.
We ordered a side of shanghai egg rolls which came with a side of sweet and sour sauce. These came out fast and piping hot. They were good.
The lunch special I ordered came with two entrees and a scoop of white rice. We tried their pork adobo and ‘lechon kawali’ (fried pork belly). The adobo was delicious, a great balance of soy sauce and vinegar. Nothing overpowering, and the meat was very tender.
The lechon kawali was amazing. They really pack the serving bowl with the pork belly so you are getting a lot for your money.
This by itself could have been enough for my wife and I, but I wanted to try the shrimp-​paste (bagoong) fried rice. This did not really compare to the flavor you get from the version at Goldilocks’ filipino restaurant but it was ok. I poured the adobo broth and it gave it a really good flavor! =) The fried rice comes with chopped tomatoes, chopped mangoes, and pork pieces mixed in.
The food service was very fast and attentive. The food came out very quickly, and the plating was really nice for a Filipino restaurant. Will definitely come back when I have a Filipino food craving.

The fiancé and I came since we were in the area and I’ve been meaning to try this place out for two reasons — I rarely eat Filipino food at restaurants despite being Filipino and been craving some and also wanted to find a solid spot that does some catering. Ordered 3 items I was interested in ordering for catering to share.
Pork Tonkatsu — basically lechon kawali like… yet there is also lechon kawali on the menu so I wonder what the difference is. Either way, the pork was tender and had pretty crispy, but not too crisp it’s hard, skin. Very solid stuff.
Miki Bihon was very close to how I would make it at home. Good flavor and very generous portion that didn’t skimp on meat and veggies so every bite had a bit of everything.
Lumpia shanghai was pretty decent. They were about 2 bite sized and came with a dozen in a order. Very crispy, hot and not greasy.
The place had a steady flow of customers and was pleased that things came out pretty fast, fresh and hot. Filipino cuisine isn’t really the best known for speed and tend to be slow service typically. The server we had was a younger guy and he was friendly and checked on us pretty well.
I’m not normally one to be really into a Filipino place, but not only was it good, I think what made is slightly better was their style of cooking seems closest to what I’m used to (my mom is from the Quezon region) than any other place I’ve had so far. I appreciate all regions, but theres something more satisfying when it’s closer to Lola/​Nanay cooking. Filipino food is one of my fiances least favorite Asian foods to eat out only because he hasn’t had very many good ones, but he really liked this too.
We will be coming back soon and if it’s consistent to boot then it may be the only Filipino place I’ll be going to on a regular. I think I will be hitting them up for catering trays.

I’m happy I found this place because just a couple of weeks ago I was traveling all the way to Henderson for Filipino food! I’ve been hesitant about eating Filipino food at restaurants due to an awful experience I had at Goldilocks years ago. Im so glad I gave it another try!
I was with my husband and his friend (who I thought was Filipino). Since they both were not familiar with the cuisine I had to guide them through the menu. I chose the Pork Tonkatsu, pork adobo, lumpia and pancit to share around the table. I also ordered a coke which came out first. I was sorry I ordered it when I took a sip of my husband’s house iced tea. It tasted kind of like coconut and a bit of a citrus flavoring.
I ended up stealing his drink!
If you order the Pork Tonkatsu make sure someone will share with you because it is a big serving. It also came with a banana ketchup dipping sauce that was tasty. I couldn’t finish it all so I ended up sending my left overs to a friend.
The pork adobo, and pancit were also very satisfying! Those were the favorites at the table. The lumpia (egg roll) was good but I wish they made thicker ones like how my mom used to make.
Whenever I get homesick and want a little taste of home this is where I’ll be going!

I’ve been looking for a place to fill the void that Salo Salo Grill left since their horrible health inspections. I was going to actually keep on eating there, until my family went to eat dinner there before my wedding day and my mom’s boyfriend got a bad case of diarrhea that night. (Hopefully D’ Pinoy Joint stays out of the SNHD’s radar).
This place is up the street from Café de Cebu. I’ve had trouble with the wait time for food at Café de Cebu, especially when they’re waiting on the lechon to be cooked/​delivered, but I haven’t had that issue here. Some of my favorite dishes here were the chicken skin and lechon. The tonkatsu lunch plate is also just another way of referring to lechon as well. I thought the crispy pata was a bit dry here, so I’ll always get the lechon if I want to pig out. I like their Mang Tomas sauce, but I usually make my own sauce of 1 part soy sauce and 1 part lemon or lime.
The servers here have always been polite and efficient with us, and we visited soon after their grand opening. I’m just glad to have another Filipino option here on the Westside and hope the rest of the dishes I have yet to try do not disappoint. I have yet to save room for my favorite dessert, halo halo.
