Kuya Lord

Kuya Lord is Chef Lord Maynard Llera's elevated fast-casual restaurant featuring regional Filipino dishes from Lucena City, Quezon Province, reimagined through classical French techniques he honed working at acclaimed LA kitchens like BESTIA. Born from a pandemic garage pop-up that gained a cult following, this James Beard Award-winning chef now operates from a 28-seat East Hollywood space, showcasing dishes like his signature 4-day Lucenachon (Filipino-style porchetta) and authentic Pancit Chami with over 20 ingredients. The restaurant has earned recognition in LA Times' 101 Best Restaurants for three consecutive years and uses premium ingredients sourced from local California farmers and specialty purveyors worldwide.
