De Guzman Oriental Food Mart

Came here for lunch with a friend. No place to sit, so we sat in her car and enjoyed some Filipino food. I had the chicken adobo and a beef dish, both of which I enjoyed thoroughly. Also a great little market for Filipino and other Asian goods.

It's soooo much food. The taste was pretty good. Everyone liked it. They have a huge menu with many popular Filipino dishes. I can't wait to try the desserts. The only thing I don't like is that there are no prices listed and everything requires you to call. It would also be nice to see how many people could be feed by a tray on average. Overall it's a great place.

You'll find most of the basic Filipino kitchen staples here. When it comes to their hot bar, it's best you order on the spot. Most of the time the dishes they prepared look appetizing. But one time I made the mistake of placing an order ahead of time with multiple entrees and one of them was the pork blood stew 'Dinuguan'. I ordered and paid for the large size but when I got home and opened it, there was barely any meat just filled with sauce to the top. I was aggravated that the man I talked to over the phone who packed them up made a fool out of me but the drive back in the heat of Florida wasn't worth it. Never phoned an order in advance since. Just pay attention to hot food you're paying for getting packed up in front of you.

It's a small place but they're ready to eat food is always great

To go food with a couple of entrees only to choose from (menu changes I guess). Anyway, whatever they have is always really good, better than some of the Filipino restaurants I’ve been to…

Would not eat the hot food section, but their catering is decent. This place has been here for years and my family had been going here since the early 2000’s. The only reason I’m giving 3 stars is because their catering is decent, because they have to make it fresh per order. It is better than other Filipino restaurants in East Orlando. We usually order pancit and lumpia and they come out good. Their daily hot food selection: The quality of the food is so inconsistent! I’m happy they even have a hot food section with different dishes to pick from, but I wish the variety and consistency of taste was better. Lately the food tastes almost like it was precooked and reheated in the microwave. It might just depend on who is cooking the food that day, but we want to taste the best that Philippine food has to offer so I hope they can improve on this. I wouldn’t go here for the hot food unless you really have to or don’t want to cook. I prefer Kabayan Grill close to Kissimmee. It’s worth the drive. But if you need catering in East Orlando, they get the job done.

I'm a Filipino and I know what good food taste like. Too many Filipinos cut corners when cooking Philippine food. The Beef with Onions is too tough. The Pork Adobo too salty. The Langka w/ Coconut is also tough. As a chef myself, it's important to taste the food. I don't think these people check the tenderness of the food they sell. Come on folks, let's do better in cooking our national dishes.....
