Tony's Barbecue and Bibingkinitan

Tony's Barbecue and Bibingkinitan

Corona, CA

“Tony's Barbecue and Bibingkinitan combines Filipino BBQ with a unique specialty-bibingka-earning a 4.3-star rating in Corona. "Bibingkinitan" refers to a bibingka shop or place that specializes in bibingka, the beloved Filipino rice cake traditionally cooked in clay pots lined with banana leaves. Bibingka is especially popular during Christmas season in the Philippines, where it's sold by street vendors outside churches after early morning mass. Tony's creative dual concept pairs savory Filipino BBQ with sweet bibingka, offering both meal and dessert in one location. This combination makes sense in Filipino food culture-bibingka often serves as merienda (afternoon snack) or dessert after meals. Located on North McKinley Street near Manila Grill, Tony's contributes to a small Filipino restaurant cluster in Corona. The restaurant likely offers Filipino BBQ classics-chicken inasal, pork skewers, grilled meats-alongside fresh-baked bibingka and possibly other Filipino rice cakes and pastries. The bibingka specialty sets Tony's apart in Corona's Filipino dining scene, offering something unique that draws customers specifically for this treat. With 52 reviews and a solid 4.3 rating, Tony's has established a following among customers who appreciate both the BBQ and the rare opportunity to buy fresh bibingka regularly rather than waiting for special occasions. For Corona's Filipino community, Tony's Bibingkinitan preserves traditional Filipino food culture.”

Dollar Hits

Dollar Hits

West Covina, CA

“Dollar Hits revolutionized Filipino street food in America when it opened in 2013 in Los Angeles's Historic Filipinotown, creating an authentic Filipino BBQ experience that transports diners straight to Manila's street food scene. Featured on Netflix's 'Street Food' series, Dollar Hits gained mainstream recognition for its unique self-grilling concept where customers select raw meat skewers from inside the restaurant, then grill them personally on charcoal grills set up in the parking lot. The restaurant's name comes from its original pricing of $1 per skewer, though prices have increased slightly while remaining incredibly affordable. During the day, Dollar Hits operates as a traditional Filipino cafeteria serving classic dishes, but the real magic begins at 4:30 PM when the barbecue grills fire up and the parking lot transforms into a lively Filipino street food party. The menu features adventurous options like isaw (beef intestines), betamax (congealed pork blood), adidas (chicken feet), and pwet ng manok (chicken butt) alongside more familiar pork, chicken, and sausage skewers. Located in the neighborhood with the largest Filipino population in the United States, Dollar Hits must maintain authentic flavors to satisfy demanding Filipino customers while introducing curious newcomers to Filipino street food.”
