I have only been to this restaurant once because I found the food to be too pricey. The people were very nice, typical of filipinos but the food wasn't great at all. The grocery store wasn't any good either, too pricey and they didn't really have a lot of choices. By the way, Lilly's is only one of the three filipino restaurants I know in San Antonio. There is also one by 410 and Bandera which is so.. so... But the best filipino restaurant I've been to is MyChokdee by Randolph Brooks. It may be a little far but I guarantee you it will be worth the drive. They have Filipino Food Buffet everyday with all the filipino food you can ever imagine, from appetizers to desserts. Aside from that, they have a huge grocery store with very reasonable prices! Check it OUT!

I know that this is the only filipino restaurant in San Antonio and it was really BAD! All the food was tasteless, very pricey, and the quantity of the food is not enough. All of the food did not have that distinctive filipino taste and smell. I visited West Covina in Southern California. Thats where I was introduced by friends to filipino cuisine. I would walk into a restaurant called "Pinoy Pinay" and immediately you will be smothered with an aroma that would make you want to eat forever. I walked into Lilys and I didnt smell anything. Plus where is the bakery? They had stale deserts ie.Puto and stale bread ie.Pandesal. The lechon kawali that I ordered was stale, too big for it to fit into my mouth, not even crunchy, and for $6 there was only eight pieces. The pansit, the only ingredient it had was top ramen noodles, cabbage, and beef. I know pansit comes with a myriad of other meats and veggies. The halo-halo looks like it was made by a kid because it looks like they just tried to stuff it with all the incorrect items. The famous filipino "Dinuguan" dish only had beef for a filler and it wasnt tasty at all. The wait time for them to cool all this food was almost an hour. My lunch break was only 1hr. I will wait until I visit West Covina again to eat all the fabulous filipino cuisine it has too offer. Considering that this is the only filipino restaurant in San Antonio, it should be the best but...Lilys had nothing to offer and it was a waste of money.
