My old-school favorite (for pork sinigang and the silog dishes) is Sinugba on Gellert Blvd. in Daly City.
Also, there have been a group of restaurants popping up lately on the Peninsula that have a modern flair to them. What I mean by that is the upscale decor and menu are not unlike what one would encounter in someplace like Greenbelt Mall in Makati. The result is good quality food that attempts to reach out to the non-Filipino clientele (a good thing).
A few that I've tried include:
- Patio Filipino -
http://patiofilipino.com (my personal favorite of the batch)
- Tribu Grill -
http://tribugrill.com
- Kuya's -
http://www.kuyas-ac.com
- Bistro Luneta -
http://www.bistroluneta.com
Unfortunately, I'd be hard-pressed to recommend a good one in the South Bay. Most of them are the buffet/steam table type that aren't that good (Goldilocks inlcuded).
