Eva's Lechon & Deli

I arranged to pick up a pig for our Christmas in Hawaii we held for the 2018 Holiday! We arrived and were greeted by an amazing smell of cooked pig and super friendly people!! We ordered our pig raw so they wheeled it out fully wrapped and prepared for pickup!!

I only brought exact change when I discovered they had homemade sauce!!! She was so nice she gave us a big container of sauce for our meal!! Beyond being super nice she went out of the way to ensure a new customer was beyond happy!!

The pig was AMAZING when we pulled it out of the ground! And the meat once opened up was fresh and very clean!!

Lechon was awesome! Soo crispy. So anyone hasn't taste EVAS lechon try it.

First of all, when you glance at the bad reviews for Eva's you'll see that the complaints had nothing to do with the food. Yes, it isn't your average deli: they only do lechon, and splendidly... and I had no trouble understanding anyone there even though I have no idea what my Filipina wife is saying half the time. Some people just like to gripe.

In the 15 years this Glowingly White Boy has been married, I have eaten enough lechon to fill the trunk of my old Dodge Intrepid--and that sucker had a 7-corpse trunk! Naturally, my girth has expanded in direct proportion. Of all the lechon I've had here (in Los Angeles and Chicago) and in the Philippines, none was better than Eva's, and none I've had on this continent could compare.

I haven't had lechon de leche yet; I'm a little afraid to try it, because everyone tells me it's far better than the adult lechon, and if it's THAT good my brain won't be able to handle it, they'll find me convulsing and I'll wind up in a mental hospital with wires up my kazoo and mad doctors performing unthinkable experiments on me.

I could do without that.

We visited for our first time and were very pleased. Everything is made from scratch on premises. Friendly service.

I ordered a medium lechon the Monday before the weekend I needed it. It was AMAZING. I've had tons of lechon and this might have been the best, if not at least top 5 roasted pigs that I have eaten. The skin was thin and crispy. The meat was super juicy tender and flavorful! It almost tasted like they marinaded it before roasting. Top notch and I highly recommend!
