The mall seems derelict, but it’s worth finding this restaurant in the food court. Good authentic Filipino food and friendly staff. We had the bistek tagalog and crispy lechon kawali with lumpia and both were delicious and satisfied our hankering for home cooked Filipino food. The halo halo was not too sweet and was the perfect way to top it all off. We didn’t get photos of our food because we just wanted to eat!!! The only reason why I’ve marked them down is because of the strange atmosphere walking through an empty mall.

Authentic Filipino food. Tastes good and very affordable. It’s inside the mall (Burnsville Center) in the food court hall. The mall looks closed but there’s plenty of non chain family owner restaurants here. Love supporting local businesses. They also sell the filipino pickle in a jar here (achara).

I have been hooked on trying Filipino food after learning about the variety it has to offer in its cuisine through Filipino food vloggers. I did some research prior to coming here and learned their menu is always changing. You can either check their Facebook page for the menu of the day or just wing it and see what they have to offer. I looked at prior menus and everything looked delicious so I was going to be stopping in regardless. Before I get into the food, I just wanted to note how friendly everyone was here. The customers shared some recommendations while the lady serving me also helped me pick out a couple dishes. The gentleman working was very personable as well and made me feel like family! He stopped by a few times to make sure everything was tasting good and was also great to chat with. I would recommend this place based on the customer service alone. It was a very happy and uplifting vibe that the workers were giving off which really made for a great experience. Now, back to the food. Since it's an á la carte menu, you get the opportunity to try a bunch of different dishes. I ordered the lechon kawali, pork adobo, dinuguan, lumpia shanghai, and a halo halo to go. Everything was delicious in its own way but the pork adobo was probably my favorite. The meat was ridiculously tender and flavorful. Although, the lechon kawali with the sauce they provided was pretty killer too. Everything was seasoned perfectly and nothing was too strong in terms of spice or flavors. The dinguan was new to me but a customer told me it was good so I gave it a shot. For anyone unfamiliar with this dish, it was meat I believe that is cooked in pork blood and other spices. I also got a cup of fried rice which paired well with the dinguan. The leftover stew could be topped over the rice too for some tasty bites. It might sound a little crazy if you aren't an explorative eater, but I found it to be pretty good! Don't knock it til you try it. However, if it really came down to the star of the show, it would have to be the halo halo. Don't get me wrong, I would come back for some pork adobo, but this halo halo was kind of life changing. It made me feel like I was in a game of Mario Kart if that makes any sense, specifically rainbow road. In other words there was a lot going on and I was trying to make sense of everything. None of these ingredients would've been anything special on their own, but when combined it was a masterpiece. You will have to stop in and try it to see what I'm talking about. This was the best treat I have had all year in terms of taste and uniqueness. Anyways, I will eventually make my way back here in the future to try some other dishes they're cooking up. If you haven't been here yet, make sure to stop by and show this place some love! You will be happy that you experienced some Filipino comfort food.

I've been waiting for what seems to be an eternity for great Filipino food. And finally... Manila Sizzling Wok serves it up with comfort, love, and great taste. The pork belly sisig is luscious and just goodness through and through. I don't want to share it with anyone. The lechon and pretty much everything is also delicious. The owner and staff treat you like family. So grateful for this hole-in-the-wall comfort food shop.

I always go here for their pork belly sisig. This is where I get my Filipino food fix at the Twin Cities. I’ll drive here even though it’s kinda far from where im located. I love the service here, very warm and welcoming. I definitely recommend this restaurant as a Filipino myself. I need to try their Halo-halo next time

The calamansi drink is made from a fruit that is like a hybrid between a lemon and and orange. Delicious! The blood broth pork (dinuguan) isn’t the most photogenic dish, but it’s extremely flavorful with a hint of vinegar. Tasty! The sour soup (sinigang) is good too. 👍🏻
