Hands down, the best place for Filipino food. I live on Maui and we don't have anything that comes close to the flavor and taste of Thelma's dishes. I had the sari-sari and dinuguan. The sabah from the sari-sari was on point! That with some rice...winnuh! The blood was also hitting all the right spots.

We ordered two three-choice plates. I got mine with pancit, dinuguan, and Thelma’s special, plus another plate to share. We also got a side of Shanghai lumpia and adobo fried rice. The prices were extremely reasonable for the huge portions. I couldn’t even finish my plate and still had half left to take home! The food tasted homey and comforting, like a real home-cooked meal. The adobo fried rice was flavorful and the lumpia was crispy and tasty. There was no wait, and everything came out fresh and hot. Definitely a place I’d come back to for delicious Filipino comfort food and generous portions!

I ordered the lechon special almost at their closing time. Is it supposed to be crunchy? because I kept looking for soft meats but couldn't find one. It seemed like they gave me scraps or the old meat. It's disappointing because I wasn't feeling well already and was looking forward to eat this. The older staff was rude as well.

Today Sunday October 5,2025 was our very first time eating at the restaurant. My little family decided to eat here after church because of the reviews I seen on TikTok. Let’s just say WE WERE ALL VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!! Not only did the food we ordered not have any flavor or love put into it but our waitress was very RUDE and her facial expressions didn’t help. She’s a brown haired short ponytailed woman. I was patient when I asked her for Halo Halo being all our first time trying it. She looked disgusted like why am I ordering it?!. We will NOT BE RETURNING AND WILL TELL OTHERS of our bad experience. We like Pilipino food but will once again as I stated, not returning to this poorly, discriminating restaurant. Whoever gave them a 10/10 on TikTok you can clearly now see had the meal for free. Another thing, if that waitress could smile and be friendly to everyone else then how come we weren’t given the same treatment?!. 0 out of 5 is what I would give this place!!!!!!

Everything was so yum. Love Thelma’s special it was crispy, crunchy and well seasoned. The Sinigang was also yumulicious. Perfect meal with great portions will be coming back again soon. Xoxo
