Lutong Pinoy Filipino Restaurant in Kensington and Chelsea

Had one of the best Pinoy meals since coming to the UK! I decided to try this place due to the sharing platters (kamayan), so that I could introduce a variety of foods to Filipino cuisine newbies. We had the Jeproks and the Ilocano sharing platters, and it was wonderful! The service was really friendly and helpful too. I would definitely come back to try their other menu items.

Decent spot for Filipino food with a good range of dishes to choose from. We tried the chicken sisig, lumpia, and chicken BBQ. The flavors were okay — the sisig had a nice sizzle one serving is enough for 2 person. The lumpia was crispy taste like lumpia in jollibee ph though a bit on the greasy side. Chicken BBQ was flavorful, slightly dry. And small. Portions were fair for the price. Overall, it’s a solid option if you’re nearby and craving Filipino food, but there’s definitely room to level up the taste and consistency.

Great service and the food was amazing, 10/10! Easily recommend

10/10 Filipino food + desserts are a must try!!! Service was good, though seating spaces are limited (suitable for small crowd)

Loved it. I recommend going in a big group and sharing all the foods so that you get to try lots of different ones. The Pancit was incredible. Ordered it twice. Friendly service too

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere with lovely music. The staff were so kind and helpful with food recommendations. We ordered the chicharon bulaklak which is fried pork intestines as a starter and it was lovely and crunchy though not a huge flavour as the sauce is just vinegar. The two mains we got were the kalderetang kambing which is the goat stew and the sizzling pork. The mains were so delicious. The goat stew had tender meat and a lovely tomato flavour with yummy vegetables. The pork belly was so soft with a perfect flavour. For dessert we had the Buko pie with pandan ice cream and the halo halo. The pie had warm and caramel flavours but the pandan ice cream had a mild flavour. The ube ice cream was amazing and sweet with strong flavours but i wouldn’t order the halo halo again. Overall, the food was delicious and the quality was good for the price we paid. Highly reccommend and would go again.

Best filipino food abroad, all was authentic. Must try the lechon, lumpia, sinigang and pancit

I took my ilocano mother to eat out for mothers day. She was more than satisfied. Busog! Dinuguan was my favourite. Thank u Lenlen for the service.

Lutong Pinoy Restau here in London is the best Pinoy restaurant for me. I have been here several times and they never failed. Best Filipino food and excellent customer service. Lyn was so pleasant and accommodating. She made our dining experience great! Thank you Lutong Pinoy!🇵🇭

service from Lyn and Emer are wonderful. Been here many times and i love it. Dishes are authentic.

What a hidden gem! I don’t know this was here! I wanted to treat my mum for mothers day for some Filipino food and we are so happy we found this place. It’s the only place that has really transported me back to the Philippines. The food was delicious my favourite was the sinigang it was so moreish and the el nido platter had milk fish and tilapia so yummy! Brought me back to my childhood. We had luggage with us and the waitress kindly found us a place to keep our things, the staff was attentive and friendly. We had a train to catch and didn’t realise we had been in the restaurant for 2 hours munching away and enjoying our meal. When we had noticed the time we needed to leave abruptly they got us the bill instantly and helped package our left overs! We will definitely be back! I will be bringing my grandma and my partner next they will love it! Definitely made the rest of the family jealous when they saw the pictures!

I always come here, i think one of the authentic Filipino restuarant in London. Brought my friend for the first time and she fell in love with it, the new aesthetic is more modern. Great food as always, decent waiting time and reasonable portions. Great staff, super friendly and always remind me of home. Ate Len Len is always so happy and very friendly, shes really great and made the best cocktails.

it's my first time here, but i'm pretty sure i'll be coming back again and again for some authentic filipino food! 😋 my non-filipino colleagues absolutely loved the food, especially the desserts. i had the lechon kare kare with bagoong, which was rich and bursting with flavour. the lechon still retained some crispiness in the skin, & the green beans and eggplant were fresh. i washed it all down with a scoop of ube ice cream afterwards-- ang sarap! 🍲🍧 the servers were really nice and friendly, too. my only issue was i'd called to reserve a table the day before, but when i came, my name wasn't on the reservations list. thankfully, it was resolved quickly because there were free tables when my coworkers & i came. overall pretty good. i'll come back soon :)

Great place, great service! My first ever Filipino meal, would recommend it.

It was ammmmazing The food is fresh and tasty Very nice people 👍🏿

Salamat po Ate Len Len! Delicious food, wonderful atmosphere and great service 🩷

Amazing Filipino food as always. Will be going back again and again.

Amazing and authentic filipino food with great filipino flavours. I have visited this restaurant on numerous occasions trying different dishes and would definitely recommend their beef kare kare as a personal favourite. The peanut sauce with the crunchy vegetables and their tender beef provides genuine depth and flavour. Would highly recommend this place to anyone interested in filipino cuisine

We ordered Dinuguan and Bicol Express, and I must say the food was excellent. The meat was incredibly tender. If you're visiting London, this restaurant is definitely worth a try. I'll certainly be coming back!

One of the best filipino restaurants I've been to in London. Patricia was especially great as our server.

Hundred percent Customer Service good food Good vibes and good place to dining

Great service and good. Shout out to Lyn!

Very nice place and lovely staff ☺️

Really tasty and fun food at a very reasonable price

Great homely food, and decent size portions

We have lunch here on a weekday. The beef stew with garlic rice is super and it goes well with rice. Pork sisig has good texture pork meat not dry. Calamasi is fresh made.

Second time dining here after 4 years, I was served by ate Patricia who looked after me very well. She let me know when it was time for me to eat as I was fasting and kept me company when she could! Additionally, the food is always great here, I’ve never had any complaints. Patricia will ensure you have the best experience you’ve had in a restaurant. Gusto ko ang restaurant na ito!

Ordered bilao set "NAIMAS". Everything is good and delicious. Service is good, need to wait for a long time for the food to be served. Just want to give an honest review about the bitter taste that was served to us, its way too spicy that there is no bitter taste..

Wonderful authentic restaurant. Great food and portions. You will pay a premium but considering the area of London it is worth it.

Food close to home! Really love the ambiance and the home cooked meals💗💕

feels like home indeed! Go to restaurant when feeling under the weather and when home sick hits hard 😍

Walk in without a reservation it is a plus at this restaurant. A friendly and welcoming staff guided us to our table, very likely with the best view, overseeing the rest of the tables. It took several minutes for the order to be taken, but I instead focused on visualising every corner, the art, and the presentation. A pricy cocktail was served on request, but it was the taste of Don Papa, one of the best tastes of the dining experience. The food was well presented, with strong flavour and good portions, it was like eating my family food. Having to eat in a table for two wasn't pleasant. We ordered a plate that resulted bigger than the table, and we ended up holding our plates to be able to eat. We requested a bigger table, but it was not available. My less recommended desert is the Halo Halo. It wasn't tasty enough, excessive ice, and even missed the leche flan. Overall, it was a good experience, there's still room for improvement.

Visiting London for the weekend with my partner and 10yr old son and we all like to try different places to eat. Wandered around Earls Court and decided on this little place. It was busy, always a good sign, so we had a short wait before we could get a table....it was well worth the wait. The aromatic spices hit you the moment you sat down, the staff were friendly and advised on different starters to try. We went for a sharing platter for the main course which was perfect for the three of us. Desserts were something different for us as well and we left well and truly satisfied. Would totally recommend this little gem and hopefully we'll manage to go back over the weekend.

The food is authentic and it’s super delicious! I definitely miss these type of cooking because I’m from the States and We don’t really have this type of restaurant at the city where I live! Please open one in Maryland! Sarap talag ng luto nyo! I also enjoyed the staff, they’re friendly and did a great job with their serves! Ate Lyn Lyn is so funny! Love her personality, she makes everyone feel welcome and made sure that the costumers get what they need! The atmosphere is great however it’s too small but it’s crowded in a good way because their food is excellent, I really do wish they open a restaurant in America especially in Florida and Maryland I will go everyday 😆

Full Review on my Youtube Channel called "INVESTIGAEL" 🥰 You will know everything here about Lutong Pinoy Restaurant.

Food was great! Feels like home in the Philippines.

Amazing food and very nice staff, can’t wait to come back

I love this vibrant place! Everything's freshly prepared, the portions are great and the prices are reasonable! The staff are very helpful and nice, and the wait time is not that long. This is a great resto for introducing Filipino food to friends.

I celebrated my birthday here with family and friends and they were super accommodating. Our server was LenLen and she took care of use from start to finish. We ordered their “budol fight” and it was amazing. Lots of food and great value for money. My friends kept talking about how good it was after. Overall, a great restaurant! Would definitely recommend visiting and try Filipino food if you’re about Earls Court.

My first experience ordering from Lutong Pinoy was a complete letdown. The sizzling beef steak arrived lukewarm, drenched in an overly salty sauce that overpowered everything else. The chicken adobo was disappointingly bland, lacking the rich, tangy depth it should have had. As for the bulalo, the broth was greasy and lacking in flavour, with tough, chewy meat. Definitely not a place I’d order from again.

Amazing food!!! Super friendly staff!!! Cute little friendly spot with great value for money

Amazing Food And Amazing staff thank you Chefs for the lovely food and thank you Lyn Sa Napaka Gandang Service .. See you Nxtime .

Food was tasty and portion was decent. Patricia was very accomodating and made sure everything is fine. We love all the dishes that we order and even ordered takeways. The kakanins (puto, biko, sapin2x and leche flan) can be improved. The chicharon bulaklak is a must try!

We had a great time eating at this Filipino restaurant. The food was delicious and tasted authentic. Definitely felt that nostalgia! We also had a very pleasant lady (Patricia) serve our food. She was very friendly, polite, and accommodating. We will definitely come back here again when we’re in London!

Me and my girls had a blast. All foods we ordered was so delicious 😋 Chicharon bulaklak was tasty My favourite dinuguan was so delicious 😋 pork lempo bicol express tortang talong was all delicious too but my favourite was dinuguan and chickaron bulaklak. Thank you to Patricia was very polite. Definitely 💯 we are coming back x

Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. Had pork sinigang, beef kare kare, and fresh lumpia. Super yummy! Rice was a bit dry but still okay. Good prices and serving portions too. Patricia was very friendly. 10/10 would recommend. 👍👍👍

I eat here often, it's authentic, it's fresh and the menu is perfect for what it's like to experience Filipino culture! Fun fact for Brits- if you like Black Pudding you will LOVE Diniguan! It's similar in flavour profile except diniguan is a lovely gravy that you pour over rice or dip with bread! Take a look at the menu, take in the smells and eat like a king with all the taste and happy bellies! Filipino food pairs beautifully with Coke, Sprite, Calamansiade or beer!

Very good food and service by Ate Len-Len. 😊

Food and service was great. Ate Len len was lovely and played a birthday song for our friend. 😊

Patricia is such a lovely person! The food is amazing. Definitely recommend the calamari and bulalong batangas😎

I wanted to try everything but I was so full. I wish I had enough days to stay in London so I could try another food from their menu. They have the best halo halo that I've tried. Very good service and friendly staff.

I went here over 10 years ago and remember how good the food was so I decided to come back, yet I am disappointed since I can tell the quality has gone down. During my visit it wasn’t busy at all (one other table in the restaurant) yet the food took a very long time to come. In addition, the pork BBQ was so tough and it was incredibly hard to cut off the skewer, I would have used my hands but there was no space to put my fingers. Other than that, the other dishes we had (Sinigang, Sisig) were great.

I just want to thank Patricia, Lenlen and Ana for making our dinner experience very unforgettable. Their attention and kind approach complemented the meal and made us feel like valued guests. If you’re looking for an authentic Filipino foods, then I would highly recommend this place. 10/10💯🤩

The staff made the atmosphere soo good!! And the food was delicious too, portion sizes could be a little to bigger but overall all you’ll come out feeling good and well fed! Would 100% recommend

Unfriendly staff, did not feel welcome

Lenlen and Emer were very friendly and have provided us with excellent service. Nice Filipino vibe in the restaurant. The food was so delicious and flavourful. Well-recommended.

Excellent service from Emer and Lenlen, and the food will truly take you back to our roots.

Delicious food, excellent service, I want to come back and try everything on the menu! Would give this six stars if only that were possible.

The food was just like at home!! It was great to show my friends what Filipino food is like and they all loved it! Please come to Edinburgh!!!

The food was delicious and the ambience was good and cozy.

Patricia was so nice with bringing us the menus and taking our order very quickly when she saw we were ready even asking us how’s the food doing checks on us and being there when we need her to order more and great personality and smiles from her it was great definitely coming back

Visited this place with my partner and we were so happy with the food and service given. Our server Patricia was very nice and accommodating. 10/10 service. Would definitely recommend 😄

I dine with my friend we order Sinigang, at ginataan na gulay… Dessert is ube cake wihich is exceptional I love it… Patricia is the one who serve us she is doing a good job.. smile is amazing… Continue doing a good job Lutong Pinoy👏👏👏

My partner and I had an amazing experience dining at Lutong Pinoy Restaurant in Earl’s Court, and a big part of it was thanks to Len-Len’s exceptional service. She was prompt, friendly, and always managed to meet the needs of her customers with a warm smile. Her accommodating demeanor made the entire experience even more enjoyable. It’s rare to find someone so attentive and professional, and I truly appreciate her dedication to providing excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

I love to eat here, the food is very nice, always delicious,,,

Friendly staff Patricia and lenlen. They're the best the food is so yummy. The best filo restaurNt

Lyn / Pat - thanks for the great service! The food is delicious! Super friendly service! Will come back again and again 🥳

Went on a quiet evening and got the food was good. Service was quick and speedy. Got the fried pork, fried rice and garlic hipon. All good with good portion sizes. Only took pics of the starters

After a disappointing experience at another restaurant, we decided to try Lutong Pinoy in Earlscourt—and we were pleasantly surprised by the efficiency and warmth of the staff. Upon arrival, the server welcomed us and let us know that our table would be ready shortly once the previous customers left. True to his word, he prepared the table immediately, handed us the menu, and returned after a few minutes to take our order. The food was not only delicious but also affordable. For the amount we paid, we received more than we expected in terms of quality and quantity. The server was attentive, checking in to ensure everything was to our liking and providing excellent service to all customers, both Filipinos and non-Filipinos alike. We ordered the bilao, which was filled with a variety of dishes—all of them flavorful and satisfying. The sago’t gulaman tasted just like home, which added a nostalgic touch to our meal. The ambiance of the restaurant also impressed us. The background music, a mix of Filipino and English songs, created a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. Overall, despite being a small restaurant, Lutong Pinoy exceeded our expectations with its outstanding food and customer service. As Filipinos dining in a Filipino restaurant, we felt genuinely welcomed, and it was clear they extended the same warmth to all their guests. We will definitely return and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic and satisfying Filipino dining experience.

Recently been feeling home sick, so we went for some beef mami with my partner, who ordered and loved the pancit and the service was good felt taken care of, thank you ate leynleyn

We found this place by chance looking at Google maps, we wanted to try an alternative cuisine and given the positive reviews we wanted to try it. Well what can I say!? Marvelous! We ate very well, we were very happy, we tried the meat-based sharing dish and the meat was excellent, very tender! We also tried the Philippine beer and the Ube ice cream which I recommend! Definitely coming back for our next trip to London!

Amazing food, this platter was perfect for two hungry souls and the flavours were on point. Thanks to Ann, the whole experience was second to none.

Great staff, delicious, and affordable pinoy food!

Always satisfied when eating here

Fantastic service and food :) Ann was also lovely and very attentive. Will recommend :)

Great food, great staff. Been going for 2 years

This is still my fave spot whenever I’m craving Filipino food in London. Ate Lenlen always serves with such a warm smile!

My family and I went here on Saturday for lunch time to celebrate my mums birthday. There are so many options to choose from and they serve authentic Filipino food for such good prices, considering we’re in London. The interior inside is cozy and they have lots of decor paying homage to the Philippines. They also have a wall with photos of staff and famous customers that have visited the restaurant. At Lutong Pinoy, the staff are very friendly and attentive, making sure we knew the specials of the day and also refilling our water for the table. With our lunch experience, we ordered a variety of food. The special we selected was the Lechon Paksiw. Then we ordered the rest from the menu: Lumpia Shanghai, Pork BBQ, Beef Kare Kare, Lechon Kawali, Sizzling pork sisig, Bulalo and Leche flan for dessert. All the food was delicious, my main favourites were the Lechon Paksiw, Sizzling Pork Sisig and the Beef Kare Kare. When we were finished with everything the staff played birthday music and brought a slice of ube cake for my mum with a lit candle. This was so sweet and kind of them, we did not expect them to do this for her. So we really appreciate the service and attention they gave to us. Would highly recommend coming here! Would definitely go back here again. Thank you.

Absolutely the best meal I’ve ever had in London. The staff are so friendly. Thank you Lenlen and Patricia for making us feel at home. 💕

First time trying Filipino food and I was very impressed. The sisig is legendary. Super tender and crispy pork. And like with everyone in Philippines, the staff were smiling and super friendly. Can't go wrong.

Bought a nice meal and some takeaways. Good ambience.

Very delicious food i always enjoy it. When i come here. Highly recommend it.

The bilaos are so worth it, such good value, generous portions, great tasting and good quality food

Very good food, Cyd was great!!!

Ordered a big dish to share amongst three from here, and upon opening the box all of us were in awe of not only the presentation of the food but also of the sheer amount of it. Excellent value for money and the sharing dishes have an amazing variety, all delicious. When we picked up the food from the restaurant it was very prompt, and the lady who handed it over was very polite. We didn’t eat inside the restaurant but the atmosphere seemed lovely too.

Best filipino restaurant in London. I have gone like six times already. Tapsilog strongly recommended. Very authentic

Just perfect. Food was as authentic as it comes. Service was top notch. Very calm and cozy place.

Curiosity leading to the full experience.

Felt some homely and welcomed. Amazing service and authentic food. Can’t wait to visit again !

Ordered their Fiesta platter for my daughter’s birthday. Indeed, the best decision ever! The food is really great (as always). The price is worth it. And the quality of food didn’t disappoint (even if its takeaway order). Each party tray were properly sealed and still hot. Our visitors were very happy with the food. Will definitely recommend! Thank you Lutong Pinoy for making my daughter’s birthday extra special. ❤️

Definitely one of the highlights of our London trip. Amazing service. Friendly Staffs. Superb food, taste like home. Special mention to Chef Rey for the spot on papaitan. We’ll comeback for sure!

Delicious food, amazing desserts and great cocktails. Highly recommend. It’s a very cute family run business with lovely decor on the wall, great music selection and an amazing atmosphere. Could not recommend more :) The staff were super welcoming and helpful. They even took a picture of us outside to remember the evening. Also the meat was halal!

I am really disappointed on how the staff are rude, not accommodating. I understand that we try to come on a Sunday, but they should have been welcoming atleast.

5/5! The food here is really good. One of the best filipino resto so far. Our server, Ate Patricia, is very attentive as well and always make sure that we are attended to.

Love the food and service here. The waiter, Patricia was very nice and accommodating. Will definitely recommend.

Amazing food, even better service

brought my international friends to try filipino food! Was amazing and Lyn, Anna, and Emer made sure we had the best time. The food was the best and really made me feel like I was home.

Great food and staff are friendly!

So fun staff and engaging especially Patricia and Coleen! They were very attentive and got all our orders correctly. They even suggested the best in the menu. Will definitely be back again.

All the food was delicious & a culinary experience, each meal was a new experience & didn’t disappoint! Plus it was all very affordable!! Service was amazing, staff were super friendly (especially Patricia if I remember correctly). Definitely recommend
