Hapag Pilipino - Daly City

It was our first visit. Dinner was good. We were happy with everything we ordered ... kare-Kare, adobong pusit, Hapag sampler (a way of knowing that they have the best lumpia, pork rind and calamari) and pork inihaw. Food is so good that we tried all their desserts. We left the place happy. Yes, we had closure. We will go back to try their lunch buffet.

Hapag Pilipino is an excellent gastronomical place to experience. The dishes are authentic and are flavorful. I love their buffet brunch where they offer a wide range of varieties. The place is very clean and well kept. The service is great ! Will definitely keep going back to this place for good eats !

The best Pinoy food and the owner of hapag are very nice and they have daughter she a good singer

Love their Bangus Sisig. Family fave. Bistek not too oily like other Filipino restaurants. Pinakbet is also a family fave. Not too salty.
