Amazing service from Rayles Diners, it's my family and I's favourite place to go to for authentic Filipino food! There is always a lovely and welcoming atmosphere and every visit is made to be special ☺️

All I can say is, that this Filipino Restaurant has an absolute taste of PINAS! It's my second time to ordered food online here and they never failed my satisfaction 🥰. Highly recommended Filipino Restaurant located at Belfast. And best thing is, the staff are very approachable and friendly. Thank you so much Rayles Diners sa solid na servings and napakasarap na mga putaheng Pinoy! 👌 10/10 @highlight #RaylesDiners

Not far from the Victoria square is a very homey ambiance of Authentic Filipino cuisine restaurant. We ordered a bundle which consists of pancit bihon, crispy pata in kare kare, pork sinigang, shanghai rolls and a refreshing cucumber drink, with additional sisig pork and calamari, plus a freebie butchi as dessert! Ate Les and kuya Rey were so accommodating and nice too. Highly recommended for Filipinos who crave for authentic Filipino cuisine taste. We left the place full and happy.

Had an amazing time here, staff were so lovely and accomodating. Food was absolutely delicious. Anyone looking to try Filipino food, this place is perfect. Would highly recommend 😁

Very Good. Excellent service, especial mention to Jinky. Over all Excellent

We were craving for our favourite filipino dishes and Rayles Diner has given it all! My favorite was their Shanghai and pancit , freshly cooked and served to perfection. The ultimate Crispy pata Kare-kare was excellent in flavor, presentation and crispy skin. Must try! The dining experience was truly unique and definitely a must try! The staff were very accommodating and kind. The place has given us a warm, cozy and comfortable ambiance that feels like home. Our stay is unforgettable and will surely be coming back. Thank you so much ate, it has been a delight coming to your place!

Quality food,very well presented, friendly staffs and I love the tropical ambiance too. Highly recommended for Filipino food.

Lovely food, owners and friendly and efficient considering its only the two of them working together. Highly recommend if your having filipino food for the first time.

This is the best place to try and eat filipino food! Owners are so friendly! Highly recommend!

Rayles Diners is an absolute gem for Filipino cuisine! The crispy pata was exceptional – perfectly cooked, flavorful, and unlike anything I’ve had before. It’s definitely a must-try. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable, making it great value for money. The ambiance is lovely as well, with sweet and thoughtful decor that adds to the dining experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Filipino dishes!

The food was wonderfully authentic, and the hospitality was top-notch — just like back home. Highly recommend for a warm and memorable dining experience! Salamat po! Ate very sweet calling us Anak. 🥹

We’re so glad we found Rayles Diners in Belfast! Many Filipino restaurants say they’re open on Google but end up being closed, so discovering this gem felt like such a blessing. 🥹🤍 Everything about this place is a solid 10/10. Without a doubt, this is the best Filipino restaurant in Belfast—I’ve tried others, but nothing comes close. The service was outstanding! Huge thanks to Ate Jinky and especially to Pastora, who went above and beyond to make us feel so welcome and cared for. And the food? Absolutely incredible. We ordered Bundle 1, and it was more than enough for our group of four. Every dish was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. If there’s one downside, it’s that there isn’t a branch in Dublin. I really hope one opens in the future, but even if it doesn’t, we’re more than happy to travel over an hour just to eat here. It’s worth every mile! Lastly, thank you very much for the food and service, and for always telling us to feel at home. We definitely did. May God bless this restaurant and the people behind it even more 🤍✨

Their Bagnet kare-kare is the best! A must try. We’ll definitely come back.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I drove up from Dublin just to try out Rayle's Diner. Absolutely loved Rayles Diners! The bulalo was tender, the sisig perfect, and the halo-halo was pure joy. Warm, welcoming staff and authentic Filipino flavors that feel like home. Can’t wait to come back! Salamat po!

Delicious food and great portions too. We were greeted very warmly by Ate Jinkee and the staff. Will be back.

This restaurant is truly a gem. Great dining experience, super friendly, food and drink are amazing. Highly recommended.

The foods were really good and served hot. The staffs were very attentive. The place is very cozy and good atmosphere.

Small restaurant and very popular, food was great, staff super nice, prices reasonable , loved the shared drink option (7.5 for a huge jug)

Very good visit, cheap and delicious. The pork knuckle is better than the one in Germany👍

If you are craving an authentic lutong bahay filipino food go here! We ordered bundle 2 and it was more than enough for 4 people, the lemonade being BOTTOMLESS. My favorite was the crispy kare kare, you can ask for additional sauce if you like. The service was amazing we got some free desserts (yummy ube buchi) for waiting because there were customers lining up (it was weekend). There is a walking distance parking lot. You can also buy filipino snacks there. Great place. The only minor downside is that there is no baby changing station. But overall, it was worth the 1.5 hour travel just to get to this restaurant.

The service was impeccable and the food was truly amazing and authentically Filipino. The beautiful interior and the warm welcome from the staff makes me feel like I’m back home in Philippines. Thank you, Leslie for taking care of me & my family last night!

If you re looking for a filipino restaurant with delicious food,exceptional service & great ambiance..come visit Rayles Diners !😇 Highly recommended!👌

It's my first time to try Philippines food. Beef Kare Kare is wonderful and super delicious. But the best thing is the staffs are so welcome and friendly. I think because of this peaceful environment and not so big space, it gives me a warm felling. Hope they will continue to keep this good quality food with good quality service in the future. This place will be my top one for my recommended Asian restaurant☺️

We had a gorgeous time & lovely food!! Thank you :) :)

Excellent food and service, thanks for a great meal!

The food is very delicious. And I invited my friends to come here. And the vibe is quiet.

I've always been wary of eating at Filipino restaurants outside of the Philippines especially after trying several in Melbourne and Sydney - they're overpriced and less tasty. So imagine my surprise when I gave Rayles a try - same with my wife and our Irish friend - the food was simply stupendous and that's not an exaggeration. Only negative, the downstairs dining area was a bit tight, especially given the number of patrons wanting to dine there. There's dining upstairs but I didn't get to see it. And the staff service? As good as the taste of their food offering. My wife and I are both Filipinos so we know the authentic taste of Pinoy dishes!

Love the pork chop sauce and sour soup

We had a lovely dinner. Thumbs up to the authentic Filipino food. My favorite was the crispy pata. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Thank you everyone! I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone visiting Northern Ireland. 👍👍

Warm, homey and delicious food! We had a wonderful time eating and fellowshipping with the staff of Rayles Diner. When we came here, we were so thankful we found this place for so many wonderful reasons! Everyone should come here and have food for the body and soul! 😍

Authentic Filipino food. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended. 👍🏼

Amazing food! I would strongly recommend the mixed seafood 😊 The service is very nice as well!

All the food at Rayles never disappoints. Would recommend it to anyone. Food presentation is also top notch, making it even more irresistible.

An amazing Filipino restaurant that serves authentic Filipino food. They have a good long menu and we ordered Bulalo, Caldereta and Bagnet Pinakbet along with sides of rice and pineapple juices. They were delicious and tastes like home. The service was also amazing - the server was lovely and warm and kind. We also met one of the owners who was also one of the cooks. Everybody who worked there were very lovely. We’d love to see them have another branch closer to Dublin! Hopefully someday!

The food’s great and served hot. The ambience and the warmth of the place took me back to the feeling of home🇵🇭. The staff is really accommodating and entertains guests quickly. The taste of the food feels like you’re eating your grandmother’s home-cooked meals on a Sunday lunch together with your family. Lastly, the price was worth the food we ordered, given the quality and the quantity. Would highly recommend the place to others. ❤️

The food was amazing, the ambience was perfect, and the service was outstanding. The seafood was incredibly delicious, and we had an absolutely wonderful time!😋

I recently dined at Rayles Diners, and it was an absolute treat! From the moment I walked in, the staff were warm and welcoming, creating a comfortable and friendly atmosphere. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and they truly made us feel at home.The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality.The restaurant was clean, well-maintained, and had a charming, cozy vibe. I’d highly recommend Rayles Diners to anyone looking for a great meal in a relaxed setting. I’ll definitely be returning soon!❤️

The staff are very accommodating and friendly, the place was clean and tastefully decorated. Food was absolutely amazingand well worth it.

Highly recommended. Feels like home!

Avid fan here! Visited for the nth time. The food is always so tasty! Thanks Kuya and Ate!

What an awesome place to eat. The food is incredible and it has such a cosy vibe. The staff were really friendly and were happy to talk through menu options and make recommendations…. The food that was served tasted so good! Honestly if you haven’t tried this place, you should!

The best value of your money can buy, food is so authentic, food is really yummy. I could never ask for more.

Everything was delicious! And they have the best seafood sinigang! Serving size is huge and service is exceptional. Thank you Rayles Diners! 😊

Off the beaten track but worth a visit! Got a range of appetisers and mains and they were delicious!

Excellent food, friendly staff. Bit snug inside but only adds to the amazing vibe. 10/10 hidden gem

The best Filipino restaurant ever! Given a chance, I will keep coming back to Rayles Diners because of their truly exceptional dishes (made-to-order) and hospitable staff members. God Bless Rayles Diners.

One of the best Filipino restaurants in the UK. Massive servings and delicious food that feels like home. The service is very friendly. Cravings satisfied!

The best Sinigang Isda I ever tasted,organic like soup…yummy truly

Super sarap ang menu . Excellent costumer service .

A great, family run restaurant with the most incredible food. Highly recommend. I've never tried Filipino food before. It'd incredible and the people running are so lovely.

My friend and I visited Belfast and came across this place on Instagram with amazing reviews. And I can absolutely confirm that this is definitely the place to visit! It was my first time trying Filipino food and it was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious, freshly cooked and full of flavour. One of the best things I have ever eaten and beautifully served. The staff are very friendly and so welcoming and inside the restaurant feels so cosy and lovely to eat inside. I chatted briefly to the owners and they were so friendly, thank you for all your hard work in making this an amazing experience for people to try such delicious food from your country, I highly recommend everyone to try this place! Very reasonably priced too. You will not regret it 😊

We came from Dublin for a 2 night staycation here in Belfast and found Rayles Diners online. I would say we had a great experience dining in this Filipino restaurant. The food was delicious! I love the chicken bbq and their bulalo was a hit in this cold weather. We also ordered bagnet kare-kare but if I had only known that ate Leslie is an Ilocano, I would probably have asked for KBL instead of the kare-kare 😋. We will definitely come back again.

Cravings satisfied. Super friendly personnel. Highly recommended.

What a great Filipino Restaurant spot in Belfast! We found this place in google map, as my friends kept on saying to us, “when you visit Belfast, you should eat in this place” and it’s really a must visit place to include in our itinerary. The food is so tasty, we ordered Crispy Bagnet Kare-Kare, pork sisig and spring rolls! The staff are very nice and accommodating, thanks to Jinky, Doralyn and Chef Leslie. It really feels like home. I can’t wait to go back.

Absolutely loved my first visit to Rayles Diners! My friends in UK recommended it, and I was so excited to try the menu. The flavours brought me right back to my grandma's cooking. We had Crispy Liempo Kare-Kare, Spring rolls and Sisig! + Buchi and Turon 😋 💖 so comforting and authentic! The staff, especially Doralyn, Jinky, and Chef Leslie, were incredibly accommodating and showed true dedication. The food, ambiance (Kudos to beautiful interior) and signature Lemonade was superb. I can't recommend this place enough! Five stars! ✨

Great cooking! Really authentic tastes and you must try the spring rolls, best I have had so far. We have tried fish and pork PATA, great seasoning one small advice is that you a preference for taste (sour, spicy etc) be sure to check with the staff before you order them :) cuz it is not customised for non-Asian customers :)) but overall great work and friendly staff

The soup is very special - caution with it xd - but it is still very good. The fried pork is amazing.

Visited this restaurant coming from Cork, Ireland. The first word we had going in was “Wow!” The ambience is very traditionally Filipino. The owners didn’t skimp with the furnitures inside. The food were reasonably priced and each regular serving they have is enough for 2 people with big appetites (like us!). The food was really sumptous, one of the best I’ve tried in Europe. And the owners were so friendly as well! Would definitely come back if ever we visit Belfast again. And plus points that they have their own private parking

Authentic Filipino restaurant, friendly staff, nice atmosphere

The best filipino cuisine in northern Ireland. You must try !!!!

If you are missing fil food, this place is for you. Delicious food and not overpriced! Accomodating staff 😬 Hello to chef pastora and Ate Jinkee! -Len and Val

One of the best Filipino food here in Northern Ireland. Best also if you have occasion to celebrate like birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

The restaurant was very cosy and the food is amazing and very affordable. We have met the owners/chefs and they were lovely, accomodating and friendly. I never thought we had to fly to Belfast to have the best sinigang! We didn't get the chance to take pictured because we got too excited to eat. Will definitely recommend to my family & friends.

I cannot recommend this place enough! Visited this last weekend as I was visiting Belfast and it did not disappoint! The food was so good and reminds you of being in the Philippines, the service was outstanding and the atmosphere felt like you’ve gone back to the Philippines and are having dinner with your family. As someone who hasn’t been able to go back to the Philippines in years, this is probably the next best thing to being able to enjoy homely authentic Filipino meals

Love the place.. gives a total filipino vibes.. the prices are very reasonable.

Excellent meal on a Tuesday night. Such friendly hosts, the crispy pork was amazing! Thank you!

Great, delicious food 😋 Very kind and friendly staff ❤️ Good, christian atmosphere! 🙏🏼 This is some of the best Filipino food I've ever had!

A night full of surprises indeed! We have just dined at the best Filipino restaurant in Belfast! RAYLES DINERS is truly a winner--spectacular food, cozy ambiance and great service!

Everything are in one place , Fantastic, Food , Service ,Atmosphere and Friendly staff...

If you are having crave in filipino foods, this restaurant will satisfied your craving. The owners are so friendly and approachable. Highly recommended. For me, 5 stars is not enough, it should be 10 stars.

Delicious food, friendly staff calm and relaxed atmosphere highly recommended.

Highly recommended for Filipinos who miss having a Barrio Fiesta-ish dinner. Everything is cooked fresh upon ordering and comes in generous portions. The Crispy Pata is SUPER CRUNCHY and the meat is tender enough, not fall-off-the-bone tender, just the right tenderness for me. The Kare-kare sauce has the right taste of peanut in it, and the vegetables tastes fresh and clean. The Sizzling Pork Sisig hits the spot! It tastes a bit more acidic (could be bec of the Calamansi) but you always have the option to add soy sauce if you wish, condiments are readily available near the tables. The Shanghai is so meaty and crispy as well and the sweet and sour sauce that comes with it is also delicious (not too sweet). Customer service-wise, I couldn’t recommend enough the service that Ate Jinky gave. We felt so welcomed and well taken cared of. Rayles Diner is a must visit when in Belfast.

Hey, Rayles Diners has some of the tastiest food ever! You gotta try their lutong bahay dishes like sinigang, crispy pata, bagnet kare-kare, and lumpia. They're the best! The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the service is excellent. I'll definitely be coming back here every time I'm in Belfast. Thanks, Pastor Ray and Pastora Leslie, for a great time. We'll be back for sure!

Super delicious food! This is a great place to try authentic Filipino cuisine. The servings are generous which is perfect for sharing. The staff are really welcoming and the restaurant has a cosy atmosphere. Love how the interior reflects Filipino culture. I would recommend booking in advance since the place is small but they also do takeaway!

The best home cooked meal that I have eaten here in the U.K. (of course next to me 😊). Delicious, savoury, melting in your mouth, salivating with the beef bone soup, request any dish and they will do their best to cook it for you! They are so hospitable and warm people. The owner/chef will come to our tables to say hello and asks if there’s anything else that we need ❤️❤️❤️ …. Truly Filipino cuisine and truly Filipino tradition. 🙏❤️😍

Very authentic, very homey food. Probably my favourite Filipino food in Belfast

Food servings was late, and a cup of rice was too expensive.

Highly recommend this Filipino restaurant Rayles Diner the food was delicious and service was really great. I love the way they present their food. Lovely place.

Me and my husband loved Rayles Diners! The food , the ambiance and the people are excellent. We've been there 3 times already and we will definitely come back again!

Masarap! Lovely, cosy family restaurant run by wonderful people! Went with 2 friends before a movie and had a great time, fantastic experience :)

a cosy and warm interior paired with really delicious homestyle food, which came out very fast perfect

Rayles Diners offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels just like home. The food is genuinely delicious. We ordered their grilled fish, beef steak, caldereta & sisig and they all capture the rich and authentic flavors of the Philippines. What makes the experience even better is the exceptional service. The staff, especially the owners, go out of their way to ensure that every guest feels at home. They are incredibly accommodating, attentive, and always ready with a smile. If you’re craving tasty, authentic Filipino food served with genuine hospitality, Rayles Diners is the place to be. Highly recommended for a hearty meal and a warm friendly atmosphere.

Food was superb! Excellent service! Highly recommended 👍

First experience of Filipino cuisine, everything is wonderful, the portion is so generous, unfortunately we only have 2 stomachs so we didn’t finished all food. Generally wonderful place and friendly staff service, just one tips, could you consider offering more salad as side dishes with meat dishes? I love them!

Highly recommended Filipino restaurant in Belfast. Their pork sisig was really delicious as well as the Kare-Kare and spring rolls. Their serving was quite big as well. The owners are very friendly and accomodating too.

Such a lovely restaurant. The food is topnotch! The ambiance just gives you a homey,cozy feeling. On top of that, the restaurant owner is super friendly and very accommodating. Would definitely come back again the next time I visit Belfast.

The place itself is so cozy and the food is on a different level compared to the ones I tried in both Ireland and the UK. It's the best. It really tastes like home and the owners are so friendly and accommodating. Will definitely dine here whenever I visit Belfast. :)

appetizing, palatable, savory, and toothsome

Amazing food as always! Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely come again and again.

It’s our first time at Ray and Leslie’s restaurant. Well, we won’t be minding the long drive now from Donegal as it was worth it! It’s great to know that you have that place to go in Ireland when you want to eat authentic Filipino “Restaurant” food. We enjoyed the experience! 🙌

✔️Authentic Filipino ✔️You get more than what you paid for ✔️Generous serving portion ✔️Very friendly and accomodating staff ✔️Taste that will surely remind you of home Recommendation and come back worthy.😊

great food quality service very good staff

My family headed down to Rayles Diners earlier this afternoon for our second visit, and I can only speak positively about our excellent experience at Rayles Diners. The wide selection of food at Rayles Diners was excellent, and they served it nice and hot upon arrival. At Rayles Diners, they proudly displayed a warm, friendly atmosphere and the finest Filipino hospitality. All-in-all, an excellent dining experience, no complaints on our end. We will definitely be returning.

The food here is divine, customer service is friendly and the atmosphere is lovely, would 100% come back!
