A really down to earth type of restaurant with AMAZING FOOD! There's not much seating area so get it for take out if you can. The food is great but slightly pricey. But that's just me being cheap. Come here for the fantastic food. They do it really wel. A family run restaurant well know to the locals. I'll be coming again

Amazing Filipino food. The pancit was great (order 20 minutes+ ahead of you want this), same with the chicken adobo, the tapsilog, and the lumpia. We had family friends from the Philippines who would share their amazing food with us. We’ve moved away and have been looking for some great Filipino comfort food since. This place is now it!

This was my first time eating Filipino breakfast. I happened to find this place on the map because it was close to my hotel. I got the tosilog, which was Filipino-style pork with garlic rice and a fried egg. It ended up being probably the most delicious thing I ate in San Francisco.

Absolutely delightful hole-in-the-wall Filipino comfort food restaurant near Union Square. The food is served with a huge heaping of grandmotherly love. I ordered the tapsilog, which was perfectly flavored, followed by the crunchy-sweet turon for dessert. Fancy this place is not, but the value and quality make Kusina Ni Tess well worth a visit. Highly recommended!

Special low-key place in the Tenderloin/Union Square area for tasty Pilipinx food. Manny and Marina and the rest of the aunties are super friendly and you know the service and food are made with love. I recommend the Tapsilog plate and the crispy deep fried pork with the gravy dip. Been twice here now in one month and just love this welcoming and busy joint. They have some tables to sit at, but they can all be taken during lunchtime. And an extra special thanks to them for saving my Fanny pack when I accidentally left there. Highly recommended!!

Delicious and filling Filipino food!!! I felt like I was back home in Manila with everyone around me speaking in Tagalog. Going back again tomorrow ❤️

Felt like I was eating food from my mom and late grandmother. I was staying near the area and wanted an early breakfast. This place was open at 7am and I'm glad Google lead me to it. Tosilog and Embotido hit the spot and kept me full for majority of the day! Come here. The prices are diff good (esp for being in the city). Filipino Comfort Food at its finest.

Nice little Filipino restaurant that serves classic home dishes. We went for breakfast and the food did not disappoint. Our meal came with garlic rice which was a nice bonus. Price was reasonable and good portion.
