In London sightseeing with cousins from Finland all Filipino Under a railway bridge and unexciting from the outside But please do go the food is amazing Very friendly owner and staff and the food is as good as any we’ve had elsewhere in London or even the Sofitel in Manila I had the Kinilaw which was the best I’ve ever had and the crispy pata which was served with chicken the pata (pork hock) was tender and crispy crackling. The calamari, BBQ (Teriyaki) chicken and Sissig all great Finished with a Leche tart Portions were huge and very reasonably priced we shall certainly return when next in town

Kare kare was bland, tahong with creamsauce was horrible kilawin was only okay. They do not serve authentic filipino food its really not worth the time and money. It was a huge disappointment.

I was with my 2 Filipino friends from Chicago to have a dinner here in Cirilo Filipino Kainan, who advertised serving authentic Filipino foods on their website menu. We ordered 4 main courses and 2 appetizers for us 3, as we are so much excited to eat and missed our own native foods. The appetizers were good so we really had finished them. Then came the 4 main courses and to our surprise, 2 of them looks like the same so I asked the food server what were those. Out of our excitement that we can already eat the foods we longed to eat we had them but noticed the real taste and ingredients of the Filipino foods is far from our expectations, although they have the descriptions of each food on their menu. We got disappointed as we knew the real taste and preparations of the food we had ordered. The presentation was good but each of the menu advertised as our traditional filipino food seemed like lost its authenticity already. I felt so embarrassed to my visitors as we walked far from Tower of London just to locate the restaurant then just to be disappointed of what we expect. Good we are all starving and so still had eaten I don't feel like recommending this Filipino restaurant anymore to my Filipino visitors as it is embarrassing. Although the male food server was polite and attentive.

My husband and I were impressed with the presentation of the food specially the kinilaw sea bass . We enjoyed the kare kare and paksiw lechon. Portions are just right for single serving . The food was sumptuous and I like the way they’ve added mushrooms to their kare kare without altering the Filipino taste. Price range is reasonable for the quality and service you get . Will go back again when I’m Back in London .

Way overpriced for the area ! Expect to pay like it was Covent Garden or Leicester Square. The place is tiny, more like a takeaway. No ambience - poor decor, no Filipino vibe, music or even staff. Food taste, quality, selection of dishes = 4/5 Portions = 3/5 (left hungry despite paying almost 34 pounds for 2 simple main course and water) Pricing = 1/5 (was forced to pay almost 4 pounds service tax and the waiter wasn't even Filipino - appalling) Restaurant decor / ambience = 1/5 Sadly, the only smart way to eat out in London post covid and not feel being ripped off is a buffet. The owner should not comment, unless ready to reimburse me that 4 pounds.

I must have been here six times and after six consecutive five star meals it seems right to provide a review. Filipino food was new to me but the first time I tried it I was instantly taken with the lightness of the flavours even when they were bold. It’s a hell of a trick ! In addition, there are always so many subtle layers of flavour and texture dancing on my tongue. On my last visit there was an English gentleman on the next table who is married to a Filipino lady. He was so effusive about the Tahong and the calamari that he bought some for us to try. He was right to be effusive. The mussels were perfect and the creamy, zesty sauce was incredible. The belly of pork is the best I’ve ever had. The chicken adobo is hearty. The aubergine in the Pinkabet was so good I can’t even describe it. We were introduced to the chef and after the round of applause we gave him, he was at pains to tell us that EVERYTHING is prepared and cooked by him and his sous chef daily. Let me add that this review is being written in February 2022 and there are only three main courses that cost more than £10 and one of those is half of a duck! Service is attentive and friendly but you probably already guessed that. If your taste buds need a party, take a trip to Wapping. And if you are going to Wilton’s (the world’s oldest surviving music hall) for a show you’d be a fool to eat anywhere else. Trust me.

This is a gem of a restaurant - go there! On-menu food and specials both offer absolute culinary delights. My seabass special was a sumptuously large fish, delicately flavoured and succulently cooked, delicious, satisfying and light. My husband and his friend both revelled in their own order: a superbly cooked generously proportioned steak as a special, and on-menu crispy pork belly - and then promised they would return for the other's dish, having tasted it! A variety of tasty starters, abundant fresh vegetables to go around with the mains, and a short, very well-chosen wine list all additionally conspire to make eating here a sheer unadulterated pleasure. Service is extremely friendly, very knowledgeable and attentive. Covid protection measures were handled well and courteously, and ordering is from an online menu easily accessible by a QRcode.

My friends and I were on a coach trip holiday to London and decided to book a table for 6 on the 29th of October 2021 at the Cirilo Filipino Kainan. Everyone’s been craving for Filipino food so it was a treat to have dinner at a Filipino restaurant. Expectations were high but most of the food we ordered didn't deliver as to its authenticity. It was more of a fusion, not fully Filipino. All of the food were swamped with big pieces of vegetables especially the pancit bihon. The Kare-kare was tasty but the Lechon Paksiw was like fried pork with gravy on top, not tender at all. Here comes the bill which amounted to £187. Upon scrutiny we found out that an “Optional Service Charge” of £17 or 10% was added to our bill of £170. Given the disappointing quality and authenticity of food, we were very reluctant to pay this extra charge. Nowhere in the menu was the service charge mentioned. However, despite leaving a tip of £10, the owner refused to let us leave without paying the extra £17 and justified this by saying that we were a big party of 6. Apparently, the optional service charge doesn't apply to a booking of 5 or less in her view.

Nunca antes probé la comida filipina y ahora me arrepiento de esto. Reservé temprano ya que sabía que era un restaurante pequeño y nos recibió a nuestra llegada un amable personal que nos tomó la temperatura antes de que nos permitieran sentarnos. No teníamos idea de qué pedir, así que nos decidimos por la opción segura de tostadas de gambas, calamares, cangrejo y rollitos de primavera de gambas. La tostada de gambas literalmente se derritió en la boca y fue la mejor que he probado. Los calamares y los rollitos de primavera también parecían sabrosos, pero el calamar estaba un poco demasiado cocido y los rollitos de primavera me dieron la impresión de que estaban fuera de un paquete en lugar de recién hechos. Lo que hizo que esta comida fuera especial para mí es que a menudo encuentro en los restaurantes orientales que los platos principales no son tan buenos como los entrantes. Sin embargo, este no fue el caso y solo puedo describir los tres platos principales como alucinantes. Pedimos tres platos principales, mechado, un plato de carne, adobo, un plato de cerdo y un pollo salteado. El plato de Mechado consistió en rodajas de bife de lomo tierno con una salsa dulce hecha de limón, soja, jengibre, ajo, pimienta negra y especias orientales. La explosión de sabor golpeó tus papilas gustativas tan pronto como tomaste el primer bocado y quedé muy impresionado. Luego llegó el Adobo y esperaba que fuera similar probando el Mechado ya que las salsas parecían idénticas. El cerdo estaba cocido en una fina capa de masa y tenía un delicioso sabor a mantequilla. Entonces la salsa me voló la cabeza. Comenzando como un sabor dulce, el vinagre y la pimienta negra entran en acción y cambian por completo toda la dinámica del plato. Fácilmente una de las cosas más sabrosas que he comido. Después de eso, el pollo salteado con ajo y chiles frijoles se escondió en la nada. Todavía sabía muy bien, pero no en la misma liga que el Adobo. No había postres en el menú, pero al preguntar, nos dijeron que podía comer plátanos en un rollito de primavera o pastel de chocolate. Ambos estaban bien, pero no hay nada que destacar. Lo que me sorprendió de la comida en Cirilo Filipino Kainan es que aún conservas los excelentes sabores a pesar de que se le agregan pocas especias. Nada tenía mucho picante pero eso no importaba. También puedo recomendar el vino rosado español con los platos principales. Y luego llegó la factura y esperaba que fuera de tres cifras. Cuando vi que eran 85 por tres platos y una botella de vino, esa fue la guinda del pastel. Valor increíble y sabores increíbles.

Pedí el chow mein de carne para llevar. Me sorprendió gratamente.La carne era de mayor calidad de lo que normalmente se obtiene en un chow mein: relativamente espesa, tierna y con un toque de rosa.Había una gran variedad de vegetales asiáticos, todos frescos, vibrantes y perfectamente cocinados. Estaban bien cocinados, pero todavía tenían una buena cantidad de mordiscos. De hecho, las verduras eran tan buenas que casi me engañaron al pensar que estaba comiendo algo saludable, pero el plato todavía tenía ese labio, un sabor más suave que es la esencia del chow mein.Muy recomendable, definitivamente volveré otra vez (e investigaré las especialidades del restaurante cuando lo haga).

Fuimos a almorzar antes de ir al cercano Music Hall de Wilton. Mientras decidíamos qué, nos dieron cuencos de caldo de tamarindo de cortesía. Elegimos entre los interesantes platos filipinos sonando. Tuve Kare Kare con arroz al vapor. Estas fueron rebanadas de filete de res en salsa satay de maní con Pak choi, judías verdes y berenjenas y un pequeño plato de salsa de anchoas para acompañar a los frijoles. Totalmente diferente y delicioso. Mi marido optó por el pollo salteado y el arroz frito con huevo que disfrutó. Raciones generosas regadas con una cerveza cada una. Altamente recomendado.

No sé mucho sobre la comida filipina, pero el menú parece ser una combinación de platos filipinos y chinos. Pedimos unos entrantes y platos principales para compartir. El pato crujiente era agradable, diferente del pato al estilo cantonés (la piel estaba más húmeda y un poco diferente) pero todavía sabía bien. También me gustó mucho el adobo de cerdo, que era una buena combinación de crujiente y agridulce, y el sisik de pollo. Viene en un plato sizzling, así que ten cuidado con los olores de la cocina. El servicio fue muy rápido y amable, obtuvimos toda nuestra comida y bebidas muy rápidamente y se realizaron en menos de una hora.

This was my first time trying a Filipino restaurant, and I was delighted with the place and the delicious food. My lovely Filipina friends that I went with said some of the dishes are quite "fusion" and not authentic - doubtless the owners and chefs have changed some of the ingredients to make it more in keeping with British tastes - but everything I tried was delicious so I'll be going back to try more. There are also Chinese dishes on the menu for those who are less adventurous like crispy aromatic duck.

Creo que este lugar tiene un gran potencial pero intenta propicie. Parece un pequeño café (10 mesas), pero en realidad es un restaurante. Realmente no es un bar y no vi ningún espacio para visitar sólo para bebidas. Sólo había una noche de cócteles disponibles en la visitamos pero el vino rosado y botellas de cerveza Red horse filipino. El ambiente es agradable y limpio, pero no es realmente un lugar para una fiesta ruidosa. Empezamos con pato en tortitas que estaba bien, pero no memorable. Principal de cerdo crujiente era enorme, con chispeante, panceta de cerdo y costillas también. Mucho aunque la salsa sobre las verduras era abundante y delicioso. Llegó con corta en lonchas y patatas asadas que eran un poco exageradas. De esta forma, me gustó, pero esto puede no ser del gusto de todos. El pez espada filete de igual forma era demasiado grande y por desgracia no preparado en el centro de tener probablemente empezó como congelado. Esto no debería ocurrir. Una pena ya que el resto de los peces era excelente y lanzar una sombra sobre la comida. El costo de este principal fue descontado de la factura sin solicitando y este es un tributo al restaurante. Sospecho que si la carne había sido un tamaño más manejable, entonces la cocina hubiera sido perfecto. Volveré a este restaurante y probar algunos de los otros platos, pero quizás algo no tan aventureros. El proyecto de ley para 2 era £42 y esta es una buena relación calidad-precio (incluso de contabilidad para el 16 libras. 50 pez espada que fue tomada).

If you want great food, good service and in a cosy environment then you won't be disappointed. We had a great meal with our family with everyone enjoying the evening. The welcome was friendly and the chief is first rate.

We were visiting wilton's and trip advisor led us to this restaurant nearby. We were amazed how good the food was. All of us enjoyed it. Best was sizzling pork. Also good the meat udon noodles. Good reasonably priced house wine. Friendly service. Would definitely come back when next in the area.

Loved this place. Everything so fresh and the cook is an absolutely whizz. He made some stuff for us that wasn't even on the menu when we got chatting to him. Outstanding value for money. Some of the best cocktails I've ever had and the meat was so tender and veg so perfectly cooked. Will definitely be returning many many times.

Many reviewers have already sung the praises of this understated little East End gem, with its wealth of exciting Filipino dishes and a chef who's a creative wizard in the kitchen. What is less well known is that they grow much of their veg on their own organic allotment. Sure raises the bar for all the generic chain restaurants springing up in the area. We really treasure this place!

We needed a restaurant close to Wilton's music hall and we were delighted to find this little gem. They went out of their way to produce a menu of vegan food for me and it was absolutely delicious.

Me enteré acerca de este restaurante en Tripadvisor, y de inmediato fuimos a cenar para comprobarlo. Inmediatamente nos saludó calurosamente por el propietario y su asistente. Teníamos los rollos de primavera, sisig, calamares y pancit y estaban muy bien! Volvimos a la noche siguiente y pedimos su ceviche (super bien), el adobo, sinigang y como postre que turon todos amor de nuevo. Cirilo, el chef de cocina hace los mismo y podíamos realmente sentido su pasión por la comida sobre cómo él látigos cada plato y se prepara. Nos enorgullece que alguien ha introducido Filipino cocina fuera de las Filipinas y en el escenario mundial.

Normalmente me pare aquí cuando visite Wiltons Music Hall y la última noche no fue diferente. Mi único error absurdo no fue a escuchar a mi propio Consejo y una vez más pedimos entrantes. No hay nada especialmente malo con ellos, pero no a la altura del evento principal fresco y maravilloso. Sospecho que mi langostinos tempura salido del congelador y pan a la grasa (bastante bonito pero no espectacular). Esto no se puede decir que los fideos Singapur son inmejorables, junto con el pato, brócoli y nueces de anacardo. También disfrutamos de espinacas con ajo y lima, ah, y un huevo frito con arroz. Marie nos cuidó muy bien y nos pareció que el vino, cerveza y licores muy buen precio. No vienen aquí para una noche romántica pero si largo que quieras fideos muy fresco y muy bien preparado es sin duda el lugar.

In questo luogo abbiamo mangiato la prima sera a Londra , dopo aver scelto un luogo per cenare che non fosse troppo lontano da dove alloggiavamo.Prima volta in cui ero andato in un ristorante filippino , anche se la cucina ricorda molto quella asiatica del Sud Est (Thailandese, Indonesiana).Rapporto qualità prezzo buono, abbiamo ordinato due piatti ed un antipasto pagando relativamente poco.Servizio cordiale e veloce. Pagamento con carta credito.

The food was very good. It was my first time trying Filipino food and I was pleasantly surprised. Ordered prawn tempura, sizzling beef sisig which were both delicious. I would eat here again.Service was also fast.

I brought my parents here to eat Filipino food after reading about the restaurant in TimeOut. Both my parents are Filipino and we were excited to try this place, however each 'Filipino' dish was a disappointment. We tried the pinakbet, Mami soup, pancit, and adobo - all equally terrible. Each dish was more of a Chinese take on Filipino food and while some may be interested in that fusion, we were hoping to have good traditional dishes, so were left feeling underwhelmed. The adobo was particularly awful. If you are looking for an authentic Philippine meal, please do not go here. It is better to stick to the Philippine restaurants in Earl's Court.

As a Filipino who lives in Birmingham where there is no Filipino restaurant, I craved for a Filipino foods so going to London is an opportunity to find a Filipino restaurant.I have searched for the good Filipino restaurant to go to and I have read the reviews of this place and my cousin and I was really looking forward going to this place. My cousin and I make sure that we will prioritise of going to this place so we rushed our tour in Tower of London and head towards and walked for 14mins to get to this place , we actually waited for it to be opened and we were really excited and can't wait to fill our cravings. But to our dismay we were really disappointed because the food is not what we expected as an authentic Filipino food, we order pancit guisado and instead of pancit what we have was misua which really did not taste like pansit at all and we did not enjoy it, we probably could have enjoyed it if the misua have been mixed with sardines and eggs and we order kare kare which is another disappointment because it was not the proper karekare. In general the only reason we went there is the Filipino food so it did not matter if we were not received a warm greetings, but it lets us down and we were really disappointed. I would not recommend this place for Filipino people who is looking for authentic Filipino food.

We ate at this restaurant after a visit to Wilton's Music hall. The shredded duck was good, though not as crispy as it might be. We both had fish stews for the main course and both were good. Service was good and not expensive.

Walking distance from Aldgate East and Tower Hill tube stations, this family-run Filipino restaurant on the historic Cable Street, near the junction with Dock Street, is quite a find. Cirilo is master in the kitchen and his wife Julia organises front of house. Our waiter was delighted when we ordered a bottle of Romanian Pinot Noir (£19). She was from Romania. We stayed with the wine all evening. The four of us shared a superb half of shredded duck, Chinese style. Perfect. I could live off this. We shared four main courses of the national dish Abodo, Sizzling Prawns, Beef Sisis and Mechadd, with boiled rice. One of our party is a fan of the powerful Red Horse beer (£4.50) and ordered a bottle to finish off. An exceptional dinner for the four of us came to £116.30. This was with three bottles of wine -- and we left a generous cash tip. What a great find.

No mistake: the food was great, the service good an the meal was reasonably priced.But we nearly didn't eat there because I asked permission to plug in my phone charger and it was refused. When I said that I'd go somewhere else, the boss came over and explained that they are a small business and have to meet the costs. I could only charge my phone if I was prepared to pay...£1.50. My girlfriend was desperate for some Filipino food, so I agreed and we sat down. Then the manager offered to switch on the electric heater...which consumes about 500 times as much electricity as a phone charger. The restaurant was almost empty at lunchtime, so how about free WiFi, free phone-charging, and some genuine Filipino folk music instead of the classic Brit-pop which was playing? There aren't many Filipino restaurants about, so a bit more thought could turn this place into a real success.Remember: the food was great!

Whilst staying in the area overnight with my daughter, we had a look on Trip Advisor for suggestions for the best places to eat near Wombats Hostel.This place is so small on the outside you could miss it, but when you find it, it's well worth a visit.Some tables were reserved, which is always a good sign. We had a lovely welcome and despite the fact it was our waitress' first night on the job, she was competent and friendly.We shared seaweed and duck for starters, and for our main meal we had chicken chow-main and pineapple sweet and sour chicken with rice and noodles. It was all delicious.We will eat here again if we are in the area.

Being short of time before a theatre visit we made our choice from the menu displayed outside.As soon as we were seated a waitress laid cutlery on our table and took our order, the food arrived so speedily they must know the scenario. Th meal, Cheese baked potato with salad was just fine.

Great food and service, and really good value for money at this little philippine restaurant. Recommend the chicken skewers starter. Gorgeous! The noise of the trains running overhead adds to the charm of this place, as does the 80's music!

Spotted the restaurant by chance. We weren't that hungry so decided to give it a whirl. It was busy (always a good sign). We ordered delicious crispy duck for starters followed by two noodle dishes. Everything was piping hot, pretty good portions and very, very tasty. Accompanied by two glasses of house red (good). Service was fast and friendly. A really good find.

We are very limited for good Chinese where we live in Wapping, the Mrs convinced me to try Korean... and it was all very nice. And mostly recognisable.I did enjoy it, only reason I did not give 5 stars is service was a little over baring and there was no desert.

Over the years like much of East London - brick Lane has been transformed into a hip - arty neighbourhood where Asian food courts and Street food have crowded out the old hole in the wall Bangladeshi eateries. Gram Bangla remains a gem - tucked at the deep end, a no frills outlet for those looking for authentic, home style Bangla cuisine. Undoubtedly- the high point is the medley of “Bhortas”.

This is a lovely local Korean restaurant that does some truly amazing food! the Korean Fried Chicken is a big standout. Myself and my partner come here quite a lot. My only criticism is that the service is very slow and staff are very distracted by the amount of delivery drivers are coming through for online takeaway orders which takes away from the whole experience!

This was recommended by Rick Steeve's travel guide. Rick rarely disappoints but this place was a real letdown. Service not great and food not great either. Chicken mosalla was dry and sauce boring. A good Indian sauce should be complex and wonderful. Samosas were tiny. The one good thing was the chutney was delicious. Even though every other restaurant in London that we visited willingly gave us free tap water, the server here claimed that they did not have tap water. Really? What are they using back in the kitchen? You can bet that they are not using bottled water for all of their cooking. So your choice is to go thirsty or pay for bottled water, $3.75. This ploy is obviously just an effort to increase their revenue stream. Maybe they don't realize that water should be a human right, not just for those that pay. I am 67, took my niece on a trip to London, my treat, she is 34. The server here did not make eye contact with me, only my niece. Then when he brought the check, he didn't put it in the middle or give it to me, he gave it to my niece as if I were some elderly dependent and there was no doubt that she would be paying. Very odd. Or ageist?

I must say that unfortunately the reviews do not reflect our experience in this restaurant. We entered enticed by the boy outside the restaurant who was telling the reviews of the restaurant, but unfortunately we didn't find the true Indian flavor we were expecting in the dishes, furthermore, given the late hour, the service was very fast and hasty. We probably chose the wrong night. Positive note: the clash promised outside was applied to the final bill!
