We went here for a special birthday and it was wonderful. Some reviews note a lack of spice, but for us, that indicated that this restaurant stuck to its roots rather than had gone completely fusion. It is very hard to find Filipino food outside of London and it has lots of flavour but is mild! We avoided gyozas and teriyaki dishes (the restaurant tries to cater towards different tastes), and stuck to the traditional ones I remembered from visiting family in the Philippines. The tapas is like the street food you get. The bbq skewers and lumpia are delicious, with the kids finally understanding how springrolls are really meant to taste - light and packed with flavour. The mains are similar to dishes you share at a family feast, and the portions here are large enough to share. The crispy pata is exactly like the one I had in Batangas and easily feeds a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children) when had with other dishes like Adobo and caldereta - masarap! So if you want to try something different, leave preconceptions at the door, imagine being transported to a tropical island (the palm tree decor and friendly owners helps with this), and enjoy the local food. You won't regret it and I'll be back to try the pancit!

My wife and I had an excellent dinner here. Starters, main course, and dessert were all delicious. I had the Crispy Pata and it was excellent (Very sizable portion too!) and my wife had the Tori Kuwayaki which she also really enjoyed. Great atmosphere, really nice sitting outside on a warm evening. The Ube halayang dessert was especially good as well! We will definitely be back!

Came here with my family for their first taste of Filipino food, and wow it didn't disappoint. The chef really knows how to deliver the most spectacular Filipino dishes. "Masarap' our kids.loved their cute outside garden terrace too. We'll be back soon.

Still amazing, still our favourite eatery in Kenilworth. Go there, you won't be disappointed! Here's my previous review: I have eaten here several times now and the quality of the food is superb, the service is excellent and anyone I've taken along have raved about it. Go along and treat yourself, you won't be disappointed! Highly recommended

Feels like a hidden gem! Randomly found it after trying to google Filipino restaurants one day lol. Highly recommend the kaldereta and chicken skewers, juicy and savory. The chicharon w/ vinegar dip was great too! The couple that owns the place are lovely 🥳

Visited quite a few times now with friends, and the staff are always very friendly and attentive, the food is just brilliant and we often order the entire menu to share between the group. Very reasonably priced and I’m looking forward to returning next week!

Friendly staff and tasty food. Had a mix of small bites instead of a main. Ordered four bites but portions are generous and I couldn't finish it all. Although I did manage a delicious chocolate brownie for dessert!

Me and my partner visited Tambayan this afternoon. Mixed experience honestly. The atmosphere is nice and the owner, as well as the kitchen staff, are very welcoming and accommodating. Starters were really good (especially the Gyoza). Hot and loads of flavour! Main courses, unfortunately, weren’t great. We had a chicken curry and some beef, fried eggs and rice. I thought the curry lacked a lot of seasoning and the beef dish was extremely simple. Both the main dishes exceeded £15. £15+ for a few tiny slices of beef, some boiled rice and 2 eggs is quite poor value for money in my opinion. When we got the bill, my partner had been charged £5 for a glass of water. On the bill it was labelled as ‘large bottle of still water’. She didn’t receive a bottle and it wasn’t a particularly big glass. £8 for a glass of water and an orange juice is absurd in my opinion. Nice place, nice people but they need to adjust the pricing.

Many things here were good. I was very disappointed in their ability to provide spice. I asked at some length for extra spice, discussing chillies for example and my experience asking for spice in other restaurants. In the meal I received, I could not taste any spice. Everything else about it was good. I was even provided with a bowl of chillies, which were too large to be hot. So, I can't see us being in a hurry to return.

We were excited to have found a Filipino restaurant that was local to us. We went today and weren’t disappointed. Authentic Filipino food, lovely staff (Jun and crew were so accommodating) - truly a taste of home! My wife, daughter and I ordered chicken chicharon and sisig to start. We had one bite and decided to ask for our rice to be served straightaway. Filipinos will know - if the food is that good, you have to have rice with it. We then had adobo and crispy pata for our mains. The portions were generous; the quality better than most - if not all - Filipino restaurants we’ve tried in London. We will come back!! Reservations recommended.

What food they had was okay. The starters were very nice - siopao and calamari. We did try to order the Crispy Pata but were informed they had none in. It's a shame because it's what we had booked to have. We settled on the Chicken Inasal, it was tasty but a bit overpriced and the Caldereta which was covered in oil so it made it hard to eat the sauce. The staff were polite.

Had the potential to be a good meal, but not knowing the dishes I asked the young waiter for some advice. He suggested that a series of small plates might be as good as going for a main dish. It wasn't. Too much stuff in batter, pickles/acidic sauces, steamed dumplins that tasted just like the ones you can buy in supermarkets, and not at all a hearty meal for nearly £30. Felt quite green when I left. What I'd hoped for was for senior staff/owners (who were there) to suggest a filling and balanced meal, or a set menu that would help create that. This cuisine does not really lend itself to tapas but I'm sure the main meals are much nicer.

Not at all impressed. Booked for lunch today, anticipating the fixed price menu, as shown on the website. On arrival, our greeting was less than enthusiastic. Drinks were ordered and these took quite a long time, especially as we seemed to be the only customers. We asked for the lunch menu, only to be informed that menu was no longer available, as it was for summer only. We decided not to stay; offered to pay for the untouched drinks, which was declined. We then left and went to Ego, where the experience could not have been more different. Pleasant, friendly and efficient staff, and noticeably rather busier.

We sat in a nice outdoor area and was served very quickly. The food itself was a mixed bag, especially for the price. The starters were the best part of the meal; the Spicy Pak Pak was juicy and flavourful (but not at all spicy) and the Chicken Chicharon was crispy and airy. The main...wasn't great. The Tapsilog was very salty, while the Tori Kuwayaki was underwhelming. Most times we've had teriyaki elsewhere, it's been better than this. If the meal was more reasonably-priced, we would've felt a lot better.

Quality of the food is quite good and the only downside is there isn't very much in the way of vegetables and salads for people who would follow a keto diet or similar. That said everything I had was lovely. Just happy to see another independent restaurant in Kenilworth. Give it a go.

I'm extremely happy to have found this place serving authentic Filipino food in our area, can't believe it's so close to me and yet it's just now that I've discovered it. It was quite hard to find though and at some point, I thought they've been permanently closed. We were walking around for quite some time looking for it and it's a good thing that we persevered because it was definitely worth it. (If you're having a hard time finding it, they're on the same road as Abbey End Car Park) Dishes were extremely good and instantly brought me back to my childhood in the Philippines. We practically ordered the entire menu list of their small plates and ate them all with our beer - Filipino style with pulutan. My non-Filipino husband loved them all too but his favourite was definitely the salmon wrapped in banana leaves. Service was also very friendly without being intrusive, we are definitely going to be regulars of this place.
