Arko Foods International

Went here to buy lumpiang sariwa and found out that it is mostly Filipino products. We came here so early after work as they open. Ate breakfast tocino and longanisa. As we check out the place they are filling up the counter with all of the new cooked food for the day and maybe next time will order for lunch or dinner.

I always like coming here cause it has almost the taste of the Philippines and then some... On this review I want to point out that it has been a long journey for the cooks to maintain the usa standards when it comes to handling the food so now I can give them a 5 star for taste and service...

I've been visiting Arko for years because they have the best Filipino food in LA. That is a statement that many many local Filipinos would agree with. Arko is an establishment. Their cooks are from different regions of the Philippines and cook the specialities of those places--llocos, Pampanga, Visaya, Batangas...I'm sure there are more. My mom is llocano and she loves their Dinengdeng and Igado. The food is consistent and SO tasty. I find I'm always looking for their Puso ng Saging (banana hearts), Ginataang Langka (coconut jackfruit), Adobo, and Bilo Bilo (purple dessert).

Love coming here! The food being sold here is authentic filipino food! My favorite is the beef steak, I can eat it all day! The store is also amazingly stocked of all filipino kitchen necessities! Even moving out of state I make sure I can stop by here and eat the delicious food! Anything you need can mostly be found here easily. You also have the option to buy your food and eat it at their outside dinning area. You don't have to worry about missing anything when shopping here! The staff here are also super friendly and are always willing to help you find things you need. Also if there are some things you need, the staff takes notes on it to see the average needs and hopefully they bring it in their store. Always worth coming and shopping here! I promise you won't regret shopping. I wish they had more branches across the state but also in America. Im almost convinced in applying for a job here just to get the recipe for their food cuz that's how much I absolutely love their food here! I will be coming back here every time I visit California again! Thank you!

Arko is an Asian Supermarket that also sells Filipino food & dessert. I came here specifically to have some traditional Filipino dessert and boy oh boy….it did not disappoint! I forgot mostly the names of the dessert but I had sapin-sapin and it was dee-lee-cious! They also have tables & chairs outside where u can eat and it helps that there’s free parking, too. 1 to 10 and I would rate my dessert a solid 10! It was soooo good I came back the following day! So worth it!

I saw a video about this spot on Instagram. I drive by here several times a year on my way to Eagle Rock/Highland Park from Atwater Village but would never have thought to stop. They have a huge selection of "fast food" in vats and bins and you take a number and they bag it up for you. No signs so you have to guess, though it's easy to recognize a curry or a pad Thai type dish. I bought some of the pad Thai looking stuff and two pork skewers and two banana egg rolls for desert. Really great value though the heavy reliance on pork means a lot of Angelenos (including my partner) can't eat a lot of what's here. The staff are not there to help you. Most everyone was speaking tagalog.
