Coated Cafe - National City

Delicious food with excellent service. Highly recommend trying it out!Food: 5/5

The staff at this restaurant is fantastic, and they serve the best empanadas I have ever tasted in San Diego. I would deduct one star due to the sporadic operating hours, but I understand that they are a family-owned business.

I absolutely adore their dishes, especially the egg pie and guyabano juice! The food gets a perfect 5 out of 5 rating from me.

Been coming here for the past six months now but haven't posted it's deserving review till now. I've always support small businesses/Veteran owned like Coated Cafe, especially they provide great customer service and delicious desserts. We keep coming back for their empanadas and egg pie. Generously loaded with meat fillings in a thin and crispy crust the way I like it. Best empanadas ever!, even better that my in-laws recipe. They have special menus during the week so I recommend to call the store first and check. Highly recommended if you're looking for some Filipino treats in the National City area.

The best Philippine empanada I have ever tasted. Not oily and baked and the filling is just right with all the ingredients of peas, carrots , ground meat or chicken and some raisins. Easy to eat and no crumbs left and it's the best Pasalubong surprise gift) and Regalo Christmas) gift to your love ones and the best thing is the affordable price!!!
