Lutong Pinoy Filipino Restaurant in Kensington and Chelsea

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!

Always satisfied when eating here

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

Great staff, delicious, and affordable pinoy food!

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 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.

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. ❤️

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

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

Best customer service by patricia. Definitely recommend this store. Patricia was very friendly to the customers.

Amazing homely authentic restaurant ... Lin was so lovely and friendly . I definitely need to come back again.

Nice food feels like home! Great staff also! Shout out to Lyn and Emer for the great service!

Best filipino restaurant in london specially the people who work in the restaurant. They are very friendly and approachable specially patricia. Definitely recommend this restaurant. 10/10

It was a small place but very cozy and tidy. Thdy play OPM music so it gives you a feeling if dining in a restaurant in tbe Philippines. Food was simple and really good. We ordered kare kare , sizzling sisig, halohalo and lecheflan - liked all of them. Serving was enough for 2-3 people.

Fast service, friendly and helpful staff especially Ann

Just finished a heavenly meal at this place that we just stumbled upon and it was busy/full even on a Monday evening, and so glad we stuck around for a table! Ordered 3 meals for 3 of us, but it was more than enough. Each portion can easily be for 2 people. We decided to try the goat curry, the sizzling sisig, and the beef Kare Kare... All delicious and highly recommended!

Delicious food . My GF had the special lomi noodles . It was so good I was stealing of her when she wasn’t looking 👀 . Sizzling beef good too 🤗

Lyn is always hospitable every time I visit this restaurant! She’s funny and always accommodating! Also, Emer is great today! :) Food is fantastic, my to go to in London —not too expensive too :)

Brilliant service by Lyn and Emer

Lovely food, great service and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend

The Filipino food was amazing, very authentic and nice warming atmosphere. Always surprised to try different dishes. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly.

It was a very splendid experience,Patricia was very friendly and approachable and she was very enthusiastic.she is great.

Len, one of the crew is very welcoming and accommodating. Food is great and they serve Red Horse beer!

Amazing filipino foods. Red horse is also complete here 😂 friendly staffs and accommodating. Amazing sister Lenlen ❤️❤️❤️

Friendly staff and lovely food! You can never go wrong, everything is delicious 😃

came back 3 days in a row for dinner, visiting from washington state. after the whole day of touring around, we have peace of mind that we have a family cook meal to go to. highly recommended! Patricia is the best!

We always eat here; At dine in, the food is very good, we are happy with the service and food. But when we take out we are always disappointed. Please, how delicious your food is at dine in, I hope it's the same when ordering for take out.

It seems that when you go for take-away, you will lose what you pay because our experience was SUPER BAD. 5 orders of caldereta but without carrots, pickles and the mixture was changed.. we always eat with you guys but when we take out, we don't talk to you properly! EGG TART instead of Eggplant Tort! the BULALO BATANGAS, very SALTY! Fried tilapia, OVERCOOKED AND MANLOURISHED! just please, be FAIR because what we paid was a waste! DISGUSTED CUSTOMER HERE in 40A HILL STREET W1J 5NT

Ordered sisig for my birthday, amazing food! Very delicious and all my guest loved it 😋

My family and friends had a nice dinner on this place. Good food and service, 👌 This restaurant is recommended.

I was in London for an errand then I craved for Pinoy food. I googled nearby areas and this place caught my attention. I only ordered sisig and rice because I was alone and could not order me though I really wanted to. The Pork Sisig was delicious! Just how I wanted it. Service was rather slow as it was super busy but, the lovely ladies there reassured me about my order with a warm smile. The atmosphere was great. Typical Filipino friendly vibe where you feel truly "at home". I also ordered takeaway Kare-kare and Pares and it was really good! I definitely recommend this place.

The best filipino restaurant UK based with lovely staff esp Alyssa and the whole onduty service crew last 27/October keep it up!

I went here for the first time during my trip to London, and the food and staff were great! Thanks to Ate Lyn and the staff for the wonderful and friendly service!

Great service amazing food certainly recommend

Yummy authentic Filipino foods. Taste took me home. 🇵🇭

The food is good, but expensive AND then they add a 10% service charge to your bill for a standard waitress service. Trying to get it removed ends up with an argument. Service charge is not mandatory in the UK.

Thankyou ate chinita ( I forgot her name✌️), fantastic I was completely impressed with her professionalism and customer service.

3.5 stars. Decent Filipino food but I expected more. Not the best I've had but probably amongst the better ones in London.

Great tasting authentic Filipino food. Amazing staff and service too.

Visited for dessert. Ate was extremely helpful and kind to us. The place was very aesthetic with beautiful paintings and a tasteful interior. Foodwise, dessert was a bit too sweet but still pretty good. We had the turon and ube ice cream, and the buko pie with ube ice cream.

First meal in London ! tasty food, price is reasonable. £48 total for 3 people (didn’t order drink).

The food was great and so was the service. I highly recommend the Calamsi Juice, one of the nicest lemonades I’ve ever tried.

If you're looking for an extraordinary dining experience, be sure to visit this intimate gem of a restaurant in Earl's Court, known for its exceptional authentic Filipino cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal with friends or loved ones. One standout dish that you simply must try is their amazing chicken adobo. This traditional Filipino dish is expertly prepared, with tender chicken simmered in a flavorful blend of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and spices. Each bite is a delightful explosion of savory goodness that will leave you craving more. The friendly staff and attentive service add to the overall charm of this remarkable eatery. Whether you're a seasoned fan of Filipino food or a curious newcomer, this restaurant promises a memorable culinary adventure. I will definitely be back to savor more of their delectable offerings!

Amazing Food, Lovely Service, and 10/10 atmosphere, would definitely go back again. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys filipino food.

Great food and very kind waiting staff who made me smile :) The Beef Kare Kare was very good. Also try the Chicharon Bulaklak if you want to be adventerous.

Been here a number of times but food wasnt as nice as usual during our last visit. Fish overcooked, torino very very fstty. Shame. It would be nice if these pinoy cafes played some opm in the background

Delicious food at reasonable prices. Great selection of specials.

Good food, but way too much overcharged. On top of this, the service charge is a little over £8 per table. The restaurant employs non trained waiters who are dependent to be told by customers. The atmosphere is fantastic.

The food was great. However, service was terrible. The food took so long to get in our table. And we had to constantly remind the waitress of our order which she was very confused about.

I had the opportunity to have a meal with some friends from West London, so we chose this small Filipino eatery. 🗺️ When people talk about food, certain countries immediately bring specific dishes to mind. For example, France → cheese & red wine, Italy → pasta & pizza, Sweden → surströmming, Iceland → fermented shark, and so on. 🌐 However, when it comes to the Philippines, my mind goes blank, like the uncharted depths of the Mariana Trench – a complete knowledge void. So, at this little eatery, we decided to order a platter because it had a bit of everything. 🍖 It turned out to be unexpectedly delicious. The crispy pork belly was crunchy and fragrant, bursting with juice at every bite. The grilled chicken wings were tender and tasty, and the soup, which had a lot of lemon juice, was tangy and savoury, incredibly appetising. It also came with vegetables, small pickles, fruit, and various dipping sauces. 🍛 Unfortunately, the three dishes we initially wanted were unavailable, so we added two more: one was sausage with rice, and the other was "braised pork". 🌭 From the menu, we thought the sausage with rice would be slices of sausage stir-fried, but it turned out to be a whole sausage. It was soft, tender, and slightly sweet, not greasy at all, possibly containing some fruit, and with a low-fat content, making it very refreshing. 🍲 The "braised pork" was named because the description resembled braised pork, but what arrived was "red cooked meat." It was the only dish out of everything we ordered that wasn't particularly impressive. The rest were very tasty and worth a second visit.

We really enjoyed the food and our server was so kind! He even gave me an extra scoop of ice cream. Thank you!

Absolutely perfect Filipino restaurant. Family run, small, friendly staff, outstanding food! Could not be better! 11/10!! My nanny growing up was Filipina, and I remember exactly the food and Lutong Pinoy was spot on! Thank you so much! Was the highlight of my whole trip to London. The adobo was delicious, the bistek just perfect (the small amount of chili you added really made the dish wonderful), the lumpia was homemade, halo halo was perfect, and the bangus/milkfish exactly how my brother and I remembered! So thank you so much Lutong Pinoy for bringing my childhood back to me. That is priceless. With love from America, Ricky 😁

To be honest, it was my first time trying some Filipino main course and I am unsure if it is authentic or no, but one thing that I can say is the dessert is not a good option here. I rather liked the stir fried vegetables and then soup in the pot (which had tamarind and okra with pork base) with rice. Overall, I can say that as a spice loving person, this place is not for me, while my friends enjoyed there.

Legit filipino pork bbq, I have tried a lot of filipino pork bbq in London, theirs is almost the same as in the Philippines, the mixture and taste. It's ok to mix them twice! Definitely a good place to bring your friends to this restaurant to have a legit filipino taste experience!

Food didn't come at the same time...gulaman I ordered taste funny...a bit bitter. We're just hungry so we finished the food.

Tasty and homey Filipino food. Sisig and Kaldereta just hit the spot! My Caribbean husband love it. Worth the trip to London. Would be a great introduction to our little known and under-appreciated naturally fusion-type Filipino cuisine, especially if you don’t want to break the bank to dine at Cafe Romulo (fine dining Filipino restaurant in High Street).

We had some really good Filipino food here, very authentic and generous portions. I recommend trying the Sisig here

Yummy food, decent portion, friendly staff. Service was quick, and staff were happy to explain the dishes.

Beef Pares is super sweet it tastes like sugar. Pansit is salty .

Nice little Filipino restaurant with delicious food and friendly service. Will definitely be back and would definitely recommend

I went yesterday with my friends ordered a Chicken Inasal which the meat that I can only eat it was superb, service is 10/10 specially from Patricia 👌

Authentic Filipino Experience. Amazing Food! 💕

Best Filipino food restaurant in London! It doesn't try to be modern and doesn't deconstruct traditional Filipino food to fit with food trends. It's just delicious Filipino food and always hits the spot! Definitely our favourite spot! Thank you for championing Filipino cuisine without changing what we all love and know. 🥰🥰

My first visit in this restaurant . Food taste amazing and really authentic . The only issue was the waitress . I was asking polite to remove the service charge 10% but she refused and she said service charge is mandatory . Is against the uk law to do mandatory service charge

Genuine Filipino cuisine - totally worth trying! The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home. We’ll definitely be back!

After having a disappointing 'authentic filipino food' previously, my brother recommended Lutong Pinoy, and wow they did not disappoint! Very friendly customer service, attentive and pleasant! Food was amazing! We ordered jeproz supposed to be good for 2/3 people, I initially ordered extra rice, but the portion we had was more than enough for us. The only slight issue was the waitress forgot our extra rice, which actually made better for us as we didn't need it.. Service: good Food: amazing! Price: very good!

the chicken was the highlight of the meal especially the manok inasal!

Pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food here. The food here is great and the service is even better. Really glad to have spent lunch here with friends and family, it's like being at home.

Best Filipino restaurant in London. They serve good quality food. All the food is very smooth and tasty. And there is no fusion fusion. As in original pinoy food without arte. Thank you for the nice staff as well. They are all nice. Will be back again for sure

Flew from Ireland to London just to try Filipino dessert. The leche flan and halo halo is the best 😍 yummmy and that shanghai too. The atmosphere is really nice, I felt home especially the Filipino music , feeling ko nasa pinas ako The service was great, the waitress was sweet and accommodating! I fully recommend Lutong Pinoy. My boyfriend loved the food and the service too

welcoming people at the restaurant. The food was delicious and plentiful and quick to arrive. Atmosphere, as with most Filipino environments, is lively. And you can have your hair done upstairs by a delightful gentleman afterwards.

Finally tried Batangas Lomi. [Flipino food review]. Lomi is a comforting noodle dish of egg noodles in a thick soup made with eggs, crispy pork, liver. There are a few places in London that serve it. The one at Adela was beef lomi and this place was pork so went here. Spoon and rice also have it but I don't fancy eating it from a paper bowl with disposable cutlery for the same price. This other place offers chicken, prawn or pork lomi which are alarm bells to me because it could mean the same broth where they just add the proteins. Although, the lomi took ages, it was worth waiting for and service was warm and friendly. When the lomi arrived, I was a bit disappointed they were udon noodles and not egg like Adela. Luckily, it was delicious. The soup was thick and moreish with whole black peppercorns that balance the chicharon. You will also find chunks of crispy pork belly, liver, crispy garlic in the broth. The liver was a bit too hard boiled though so inedible for my picky standards ie not soft and velvety. Lomi is similar to the Chinese and Malaysian Watanho but much nicer because the of the tasty broth and the noodles are not panfried. The broth is pure savoury goodness unlike Chi/malay sweet broth. Lomi also reminds me of Hong Kong doggie noodles and pin noodles in a thick soup but much nicer because of the quality meats unlike the decomposing meat they use which the locals are used to or have not tried fresh meat before.

ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Employees take the piss. At first me and my friends went inside and were informed to queue outside, they never mentioned how long we were going to queue for. And this is where we made a mistake for queuing for this place. There was only a group of four parties before us and we ended up waiting for 45 mins standing outside. There was also a group of people who were the employees friends and they were well accommodated and given menus to look at. Whereas nobody came to give us anything. We got sat down, ordered our food (three meat dishes, two rice, one dessert and two beers). Expecting to have our food in 10-15 mins. BUT NO. Took 10 mins for drinks to come. And another 20 min wait for dessert for come first???? I’ve never seen any restaurants who serve dessert first. Then the rice came, then one meat dish. We finished the meats and waited for another 30mins for the other dishes to come BUT IT NEVER CAME. We finally confronted the employees and they said they “accidentally” gave our food to their friends… a minute later they brought us the second plate of food we ordered. And said the third dish is going to take too long to make so they cancelled it. (At that point we already waited for an hour, so how long do you need to make food?) This whole experience took us from 8pm to 10:15pm. The food was cold when we were waiting, it was not enjoyable. I asked this waitress to take off our service charge and she looked at me with this weird smile on her face and we still HAD TO PAY FOR SERVICE CHARGE even though there was absolutely no service? Only one waitress was apologetic and kind. But the man who I believe is the manager and another woman who had a fringe were careless and odd. Hands down the slowest and worst experience I’ve had in a restaurant. Good luck continuing your business with attitudes like this. On a side note, the food was tasty, but small in portion, and got too cold because took too long to come.

Seated outside. While the food was nice, service was very poor. We literally had to get up at least 4x to check up on our order. It took about 45mins wait for our mains, while desserts took another 45 mins. We ordered coffee along with the desserts, they served the coffee first and the dessert came 45mins later after multiple reminders abd when the coffee was already cold. We followed up on our desserts twice only to be told that one of them was unavailable. Staff should first check availability before accepting an order. Staff are stretched with no eye for detail of their service...simple incompetency. Please note that table next to us had their food served on time, so there is variation in their service, so its a matter of luck, we just had it bad that day.

Food was delicious and gnammy but even though I was the only customer eating the waitress had more focus on watching her phone then see if I had everything I need on the table😏🤦‍♀️

Top class Filipino restaurant, very friendly great food well worth the visit
