“ The Gud Burger was really good, although I was expecting it to be bigger. The fries were crispy and tasty. I liked the chicken lumpias as well. I wasn't a fan of the apple turon and the Kare Kare bowl was just not good. ”
“ Another great find in Spring Valley! Ordered the Gud burger, curly fries, and chicken lumpia (They were out of pork belly so no sisig fries or lechon, dang. Next time.). An ube garlic bun?! Juicy patty?! Well seasoned fries?! All the umami one could ask for. I will be a regular for sure. Support local! ”
“ I tried the Gud Burger, did not know what to expect. Thought it would be like a regular burger. I was wrong. Super delicious, one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. ”
“ This little spot located on the east side of Paradise Valley Road is a hidden gem that's been killing it since they opened. They have the best filipino fusion out of anywhere in San diego. The staff is friendly and they provide a clean eating environment with a tv that's usually on a sports channel so you can watch while enjoying your meal. Their menu consists of a few classic filipino dishes (my favorite is the corned beef hash-silog) to newer things like sisig fries and the delicious Gud burger which is an ube bread smash burger. Their ube churros paired with the ube dipping sauce is sooo good too! Definitely a must try place! ”
“ Ambience / atmosphere: zero Wait time: about 30 minutes Food: SPECTACULAR We ordered the hot honey chicken sandwich and the pork belly loaded fries. Everything was delicious! Very flavorful, great texture. The price was average / fair. Restaurant was very loud, a little sticky, and hot, so we opted to take the food to go. Super tasty and we will be back! ”
“ this shit is amazing. I would kick a child in the face for an order of their Longanisa fries (forgot the exact name) I have been munching on this all day. You know that feeling when you eat while you have the munchies? That's the feeling I get without munchie time ”
“ If you want something non-commercial and deliciously tasty? Give this place a look. It's in a strip mall type of place and it's not a very big place... but this food is what comfort /take-out looks like to me. It's freshly made, and it looks like someone's tita or Lola is in the kitchen... i think it's their spirit(s) if I'm being honest. The music was good. I knew a few of the tunes, and the staff was very attentive! Props for the Ube Churros and the creme. This food was Fire We will definitely be back. Don't sleep on this place, y'all! We shared the Spam Katsu bowl and the GÜD Burger. God bless this place, and it's people! ”
“ The Hot Honey Chili Garlic Chicken Sando and Kare Kare Bowl with Short Rib were sooooo delicious. I wanted to try the Filipino Corn Dog, but it was sold out. Better luck next time, I guess. Cashier Justin had excellent customer service, too, despite being super busy. Will definitely be back and recommend to others. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu. ”
