About Tapsilog Cantina

Tapsilog Cantina is a filipino restaurant in Santa Clara, California. It is listed at 1998 Homestead Rd #121, Santa Clara, CA 95050, which places it among the local businesses of Santa Clara that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

Portion sizes and pricing swing widely across this group, from a $10 lunch bowl to a multi-course tasting menu at an upscale sushi counter, so checking recent reviews and photos is more useful than the price range alone. In Santa Clara, dinner reservations for popular izakaya, hot pot and Korean BBQ spots fill up on Friday and Saturday nights, so booking ahead or arriving at opening is worth it. Many restaurants across California run daily lunch specials on weekdays that are not listed on the dinner menu, so it is worth asking. Halal, vegetarian and gluten-free options vary a lot by kitchen; call ahead if you have a dietary restriction rather than assuming the menu will note it.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–2:30 pm. It is closed on Monday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (408) 326-2284. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, tapsilogbistro.com.

Customers rate it 4.4 out of 5 on Google across 254 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded filipino restaurants in Santa Clara.

Santa Clara is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Santa Clara follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Very islander and welcoming . Service was fast. Food was good just wished I asked for sinigang to be more sour and meat softer. Mango sa was definitely a hit for a beautiful weather πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ™Œ.

We’ve been to Tapsilog Bistro and liked it. Not sure why the Cantina location would be different but it definitely didn’t hit the same. The worst offender was the kare kare. The stew visually looked good but had VERY weak flavor. The ice cream we got after our meal was freezer burnt, or maybe just bad. Garlic rice, like the Bistro location, was fine but not really garlicky. The bangus sisig tasted good, but the house vinegar was very mild and barely sour. Also, their menu had AI pictures. :/ Besides these things, I really liked the atmosphere. I think I’ll come back to try different foods since everyone else seems to really like them.

The Filipino food here was truly authentic and full of flavor. Every dish was served generously and tasted just like home-cooked meals. From the first bite, it honestly felt like being back home. The portions were great, the presentation was inviting, and the overall experience was amazing. The staff were awesomeβ€”friendly, welcoming, and made the whole visit even better. I truly hope more people come out to support this restaurant because it deserves all the love for bringing real Filipino comfort food to the community.

On a warm October afternoon, I needed a place to eat with my partner. We ended up choosing this restaurant based on the recommendation of a Filipino friend. And this place did not disappoint at all. Though we were a little confused as you enter from what seems to be a side door, to be then seated either inside or outside, the menu continued our confusion. The menu is massive, with so much text. It might as well be classified closer to a novel than a menu, however underneath all of this confusion, there is a hidden gem in the food. A few of the highlights were the Lechon Kawali and the Fried Bangus. The flavors were outstanding and you must choose the garlic rice over steamed rice every time. The only drawback was the soup that came in the combo was way too salty, as if it had been reduced for 3 hours too long. Regardless, everything else was super delicious and the value was really good. The vibe was authentic and it felt like I found my #1 Filipino restaurant.

I ordered the loco moco ground beef patty with lots of gravy which was topped with a over medium egg on a scoop og harlic rice. Not to mention the very crisp tater tots. The beef patty was a little overcooked but still delicious. Maybe next time ask to have the beef patty medium. We also ordered bangus fish and lechon kawali with garlic rice which was even a better choice. The tocino was homemade which i appreciate. All in all a good filipino restaurant with a great selection.
