“Kainan Sa Kanto brings authentic Filipino fast-food and home cooking to Lakewood's Del Amo Boulevard, operating from an unassuming corner spot in a small strip mall that belies the delicious food within. This family-owned establishment combines a Filipino buffet-style counter service with a small grocery section carrying canned goods, frozen products, and Filipino desserts. The restaurant specializes in classic Filipino comfort foods prepared fresh daily, with generous portions that often result in leftovers for later meals. Kainan Sa Kanto has earned praise for its lechon kawali with perfectly crispy skin giving way to tender meat, authentic pancit, classically prepared chicken adobo, and BBQ skewers offering sweet and salty balance. The restaurant serves the greater Long Beach area's Filipino community and adventurous food lovers, many of whom report that the food reminds them of meals from their Lola's or Ate's cooking. The establishment operates as both a quick takeout destination and a casual dine-in spot where friendly staff help guide newcomers through the menu. With operating hours from 7am to 7pm weekdays and reduced weekend hours, Kainan Sa Kanto provides accessible Filipino cuisine to both longtime fans and first-time visitors exploring the vibrant flavors of the Philippines.”
