Tita Lina’s: Authentic Filipino Dining Experience in Los Angeles

Tita Lina’s offers very good Filipino food in a clean and comfortable atmosphere. The menu has many Filipino dishes available for preorders and catering; however, for call in orders for pickup or dining in, they offer 8-10 dishes to choose from (toro toro style) in addition to several desserts. We ordered the Chicken Adobo and a large pancit. The chicken was tender and the sauce was a mild vinegar style. The pancet was above average with lots of vegetables and meat. The owner offered us a Turon and a small Ginatan dessert. The turon had a light crispy wrapper (not greasy or too heavy) and the ginatan was unbelievably delicious. All the dishes were excellent, especially the desserts. For the type of mom & pop restaurant, Tita Lina’s offers really good food at a great value. The service was friendly and we will definitely return.

Very happy to find this place on my trip to LA from Denver. As a Fil-Am, I crave Filipino food that connects me back to my roots. Tita Lina’s serves up that fresh home cooking & has great variety with a satisfying finish on the taste buds. Very nice & cozy clean eatery, will be back next time!

1000% coming back and will recommend. If you want authentic affordable Filipino food, this is the place to be.

It seems they serve quite authentic Filipino food. It is advantageous for me that they offer vegetarian options. The price is also quite affordable compared to LA standards. Give it a try if you are curious about Filipino cuisine.

If youre looking for authentic Filipino restaurant with reasonable price, Tita Lina’s Filipino restaurant is the place to go. Food is authentic and deliciously made, staff are friendly, hard working and helpful, Only concerns are not enough parking spaces and absence of toilet facility otherwise, its home away from home culinary delight, highly recommended.

This place on Google was 5 stars, but once I got there, this place off the food alone exceeds 5 stars! Let’s talk about the food— everything was seasoned to perfection. The sinigang had these thick cuts of pork belly with the perfect tamarind and sour balance. The sisig tasted so clean and fresh and I loved how there was elements of pickled onions and peppers in it. The diniguan (pork blood) didn’t taste heavy at all, it was the best consistency and had a slight sour to it which I loved. Everything we paired with the garlic rice and tocino and walked away full yet surprisingly didn’t feel heavy at all. Now let’s talk about the service— I’ve been to a lot of Filipino to-go spots, and at these other spots, it feels like you’re a nuisance for being there. At Tita Lina’s, you feel like you’ve walked into your grandma’s house. The hospitality, conversation, and care made me feel so welcome and happy to recommend to my friends and come back for more! The place was clean and even with people walking in and out, every staff member smiled and made our experience impeccable! I’ll be back when I’m in the area or if I need catering for a party!

Great food all around. I had a combo plate with beef kaldereta and lechon kawali — and the lechon was so dang good. Parking kind of sucks, though. There’s a small shared lot with fewer than 10 spots, so you may end up parking on the street if you’re lucky. That said, the food is absolutely worth the hassle.

I’m so happy I found this restaurant during our road trip. Tita Lina and Ateh Patricia were so welcoming and full of joy. The entire team made us feel like family. The food was fresh and delicious. The sinigang was my son’s fav. We ordered chicken and pork bbq sticks, pancit, adobo, lechon kawali, and turon. We will most definitely keep coming back!
