FOB fam… what a year. 🥹✨
As we close out the season, we just want to pause and say thank you—for every reservation, every walk-in, every “we brought our friend,” every shared plate, every story told over our food. None of this happens without you, and none of it happens without the absolute magic our FOB team brings to this restaurant every single day.
2025 recap (aka: we’re still shook):
🥇 SF Chronicle Top 100
🏆 East Bay Express: Best Filipino Restaurant
⭐️ Michelin Bib Gourmand
🎶 Outside Lands — 8th year (wild!)
⚡️ Serving legendary moments like Grateful Dead / Zach Bryan crowds
🔥 Expanding the family with FOB West
🥂 Feeding the people at company picnics + private events all year long
🇵🇭 And a full-circle highlight: a Philippines trip with the kids (heart = full)
To our cooks, dishwashers, servers, bartenders, hosts, managers—everyone holding it down behind the scenes and out front—we love you deeply. And to our community: salamat for continuing to choose us, celebrate with us, and root for Filipino food in such a big way.
Here’s to another year of full tables, loud laughter, and food that feels like home. 💛
