Senor Sisig started as a roaming San Francisco food truck building a creative Filipino-Mexican fusion menu around sisig — the sizzling chopped pork dish from the Pampanga region of the Philippines — applied to tacos, burritos, and the Mexican street food format in combinations that earned a Bay Area cult following and eventually grew the brand into multiple Bay Area locations. It appeared in Season 18, Episode 4 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Cannoli, Fritters and Wings,” which aired September 16, 2013. Guy Fieri found a San Francisco food truck doing Filipino-Mexican fusion with the creativity and quality that earns a mobile operation its national reputation and its eventual brick-and-mortar expansion.

What to Eat
The Sisig Taco — sizzling chopped pork sisig with onion, chiles, and a squeeze of calamansi in a warm corn tortilla — is the Filipino-Mexican crossover that built Senor Sisig’s Bay Area reputation and the item that defines what the brand does. The Sisig Burrito with Filipino pork sisig, garlic rice, and house-made sauces wrapped in a flour tortilla is the full-meal option most regulars order for lunch. The Tofu Sisig Taco is the vegetarian option that proves the sisig concept works beyond pork. The Garlic Fries with house-made aioli are the side most tables add automatically.
