We reserved a dinner for group of 15 for their Kamayan feast experience. Essentially, they will lay food out on the table in front of all the dinners with a variety of Filipino foods so everyone gets to try a little of everything on the menu. We were served a soup bowl and a spoon but was otherwise expected to eat with our hands. Sanitary wipes and napkins were provided. The staff was very conscious of the allergies in our group and made sure to explain every item on the table as they were serving us.The feast included calamari, meat spring rolls, sweet & sour pork, marinated beef, mango salad, fried fish fillets, pork coconut milk curry, shrimp and muscle, rice, a bone broth soup, and more. All the food was very delicious but we especially enjoyed their bone broth soup which came with so much meat and such a deep flavor. We found that the food was plentiful for each person and ended up taking a little less than half the food to take home. This was honestly such a unique experience to dine and it was great to be able to try a variety of their food items - I would highly recommend trying their Kamayan feast.My only complaint is that we ended up waiting almost an hour (we started eating 50 minutes after our reservation time) for our food despite reserving well ahead of time and arriving generally on time (the last to arrive in our party was about 15 minutes late). We were all starving by the time the food was served and the food took a while to set up on the table so some of the food was getting cold while we were waiting for the rest of the table to get set up. There seemed to only be a few waiters in the restaurant and there was another Kamayan feast happening with another large party at the same time as well as regular patrons so I understand that they were probably super busy and understaffed. None-the-less, the servers were amazing and generous. I would recommend going with a smaller group.
The lechon Kawali is perfect!
Looking for the best Chicharong Bulaklak, we found this spot just across the bridge from manhattan. Excellent food, fast service and reasonable prices. Highly recommended if you are craving for an authentic filipino food. Try the sizzling sisig ma papa wow ka sa sarap!
Food here is good as usual but the ventilation here is a pain.. everytime we come here even though its really cold outside the a/c is on. Idk why but we have to tell the waitress here every single time to turn it off. thats the only issue. food is great and no problem.
Food was great! Real Filipino cuisine, the employees are very friendly and attentive! Very satisfied for trying out this place!
This place is the one I always prefer. I eat in a lot of restaurants but to this place I go the most. The crew is very affectionate and the cooking they offer is so yummy. I never miss an opportunity to have a decent meal here. Highly recommended.
The best filipino cuisine restaurant in New York nice staff specially the owners down to earth kind person you experience the Filipino love and hospitality come and try the best among the best.
My go-to for kare kare and the fried lumpia. Best Filipino restaurant to serve this!
Great food! Great prices! Great service from Tita Stephanie!!!
Ordered vegetable rolls. Tasty ingredients but crust was darker and saturated/oily as though cooked in used oil. Would like to give another try, but before I do will contact restaurant and inquire how cooked and is oil vegetable.
