Tita's Kitchenette is a casual, counter-service spot in National City serving Filipino comfort food at low prices. The menu runs through home-style staples — chicken and pork adobo, lumpia, dinuguan, grilled pork skewers, and pansit — alongside ube desserts, with portions generous enough to split across a tray.
The crowd spans generations, with grandparents and grandkids alike showing up for what regulars describe as a taste of home. Lines can stretch out the door, especially around lunch, but service moves quickly, and the room stays casual and unhurried once you're seated.
San Diego Magazine named Tita's Kitchenette to its Best of 2025 list.
