I first tried Señor Sisig about two years ago and revisited it last night--so it's been a while! The place has completely transformed. I remember it being a small shop, but now it's huge--with great seating, cool ambiance, stunning artwork, and even a bar WOW As for the food, it was just as amazing as I remembered. I ordered the Señor Sisig (pork) burrito, no beans, spicy level: spicy, added an egg--about $18. I also got the Ube Horchata for $5, and it was so good. Worth every penny since I couldn't even finish it, the burrito was huge. LOL We arrived about 30 minutes before closing, and despite that, the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Our order came out in about 15 minutes, and there was no sense of rush or pressure--just great service. Since it's in Oakland, parking is street parking, so it's good to stay aware. But being downtown, it feels safer than some other areas. Overall, such a great experience--I'll definitely be back! Probably gonna try the Sinigang wings next. :)

They have vegan egg, vegan cheese, vegan cream cheese, vegan mayo, vegan chicken, tofu. I don't know what else I'm missing but they will make a replica of most dishes on their menu with a vegan options and that's PHENOMENAL! 10/10 just for their vegan friendliness. What I've tried: 1. Vegan Tofu Vegano Senor (2.5/5): I made the mistake of not getting it toasted and with the vegan chicken :( This is also a portion size for 2 people so watch out. 2. Vegan Crunch-a-dilla (5/5): Everything was made vegan, subbed with vegan chicken. Loved it. This is also a portion size for 2 people so watch out. 3. Vegan Loaded Garlic Fries (4/5): My parents loved it but it was too heavy for me. This is a vegan / veg / vegetarian review

This review encompasses multiple additional visits to this Senor Sisig location. Vegano silog burrito with vegan chicken, no spice: It mostly just tasted like egg and tomato, some parts of the rice and protein were salty and maybe had black pepper too, which I do like. I would probably want to try California burrito next time because it has fries in it which I'm sure would add some crunchy texture as well as tasty salt and fat, and you can modify it to have no guacamole. Vegano chicken taco, asked for no spice and no jalapenos: The vegan chicken definitely tastes like soy meat, for better or worse. It came with two tortillas and cilantro cream sauce. It was just so-so as tacos go, and I don't like cilantro, so I probably wouldn't get this one again. Too Good to Go surprise bags: I've gotten one on two different occasions. The second time, I arrived at the beginning of the pickup window, but needed to wait about 5 minutes for them to prepare the boxes since they weren't actually ready with the surprise bags. But they heaped the container full of rice, guacamole/green sauce, meat (this time it tasted like the vegan meat, whereas the first time I got the surprise bag it was probably actual chicken), beans, and salad. The surprise boxes are definitely a good deal - almost a third of the cost that it normally would for that quantity of food - so it's no wonder I typically see they get bought up very quickly when they get offered on the app.

My wife & I came here on a Sunday right around noon.  We were able to find parking on the street (free on Sundays) without any problems.  We ordered the Lechon Kawali plate and Crispy Sinigang Wings, along with a Calmansi Ginger Limeade (for her) and a Pandan Iced Tea (for me).  The server said that the lechon would take about 20 minutes, which was fine for us.  We took our drinks and sat at the bar.  The TVs on that side of the restaurant were playing random college basketball.  The server asked us if we wanted to watch something else and gave me the remote so I could change it to the NFL playoff game. After a little bit, the server brought us our food, along with a side of white steamed rice.  We started with the lechon plate, piling on chunks of meat inside a corn tortilla, adding in the BBQ sauce and pickled onions.  (While the habanero salsa was very flavorful, it was a bit spicy for our taste).  The pork was chopped small enough to fit inside the corn tortillas, making it easy to eat.  Then, we tried the wings.  The sinigang dry rub gave the wings a great tangy flavor, both by themselves and with the tamarind dipping sauce (which was a little spicy, though less than the salsa).  There were 6 tortillas in the lechon plate and 6 wings in one order, so this was the perfect amount of food for 2 people. Overall, we had a wonderful experience.  The place was busy for a Sunday afternoon. with most of the dine-in patrons also watching sports.  They also had a lot of to-go orders lined up.  But the wait for the food was worth it, and we'll come by again when the Warriors are playing.

As long time fans of their food truck, we decided to try the "restaurant experience". Love the vibe with the spot decorated with all the Bay Area greats! I enjoyed the indoor/outdoor feels with the windows fully open. We sat at the bar and after about 10 mins of waiting, we went to the front counter to learn that the cashier/order taker is also the bartender. We got some drinks made and then had to go back to the front counter to order the food. My first cocktail was good, I enjoyed the Mezcal Mangonada cocktail, then my second cocktail had a hair in it, so I switched to beer. The food was fire, to be expected. We ordered the Sisig Crunch-a-Dilla, this has all of the flavors and textures! We loved the nacho cheese dip sauce that elevated all of the flavors. We also got the Sisig Fries with a fried egg, I loved everything about this. Both items were hella good, chef's kiss! Overall, love the vibe and the food!! Didn't love that the bar area wasn't really being served and you didn't really know until you asked. Seemed a bit understaffed when you have the cashier and the cook coming out to make cocktails. The bar area was also infested with fruit flies, so I wouldn't suggest sitting there. Would hope that the operations of the cantina was a bit more put together. But the food is still awesome!

I wanted to take a trip to Oakland to go to this restaurant. The restaurant serves Filipino-Mexican fusion cuisine with prioritizing Sisig on burritos, bowls, tacos, and their own Crunchwrap version of it. I heard that it used to be a food truck, but very glad that they got their own place now. This place is very aesthetic associating with GSW colors as well as displaying popular influencers at the walls. I'm quite surprised that there aren't many people in the restaurant but maybe because it's not night already. I really love the food here. Ube Horchata is like a very smooth Ube drink. The Señor Sisig Burrito has all Mexican and Filipino ingredients combined together and blend very good! I ordered no spice on the burrito, but couldn't have gotten mild. Most likely because it's my first time here and want to have a chance to try one with no spice. I'm very likely to come back here since there are plentiful choices here especially the Sisig Crunch-A-Dilla. I know that the Rib-Eye Bistek Sisig Burrito is limited and probably to die for, but I gotta get the regulars first haha

I am a huge fan of the food truck. Usually I get some right before a Giants game! Sometimes we just look for them wherever there are trucks. Today was the first visit to the actual building. Clean, open and welcoming! The food is as tasty as ever. I did not expect that bar. I wonder if I can watch the Tyson fight here!

Haven't been by since they opened up their sit-down location right across the corner from their old spot. I usually get the senor sisig burrito but decided to go with the mild tosilog burrito this time. The tosilog burrito was decently sized and had a good amount of toppings with the adobo rice. I like that it had the chunks of tomato to cut through the greasy meat/rice. I added the tomatillo sauce and vinegar as I was eating to add more acidity since I love sour. I do wish the tomatoes were cut into smaller chunks so you don't get bites of only tomato. The place was clean and had an abundance of seating (bar and tables). There is self-serve water and a hallway on the left of the unit leading to the bathrooms, which were clean as well. I ordered through the Toast app but there is also a kiosk you can order from at the restaurant. I would just say FYI, there does appear to be a 5% service fee for ordering, at least through the Toast app. I also did have to return to the counter after realizing they forgot my tomatillo sauce. I saw that they have sinigang wings though, so hopefully I'll be back in the area soon to try them!
