Story

Those in search of a culinary adventure will do well to come along and discover why Filipino food is the last word in global cuisine, combining the delicate, fresh flavours of Asia with an American zest and European sophistication.

Filipino food is a mesmerizing combination of four culinary traditions – Spanish, American, Malay and Chinese to name a few.

Reviews
Amazing food! We went for my dad’s birthday and the service was really friendly and they sang happy birthday to him. It was great to see elevated Filipino food that still tastes like home. The sea bass and soft shell crab was my favourite. Great balance of flavours and the fish was perfectly cooked. We were already full but couldn’t resist the desserts we saw other tables ordering. They are all amazing and not too sweet. We’ll definitely visit again when we next come to London.
We came here after it was recommended to us for a authentic and good filipino place. The food was great and tasty and tasted different to the far eastern dishes that i'm used to. The service was great and the drinks were made well. Would recommend to anyone who is looking to try out the filipino cusine!
First time visiting a Filipino restaurant after wanting to go for ages! We were able to easily book a table via Google and the lovely owner even reached out directly to me too to let me know that Friday's have changed to tapas and bottomless drinks style to allow customers to try everything. We had an amazing time and they were so polite and attentive especially when you have nut allergies! I love how the owner oversees everything and when he sees that the waitresses are busy, he will jump in to help. The two of us paid £53 each and we had three glasses of soft drinks and I'm pretty sure 5 dishes each. We were so stuffed by the end of it!
We are in London visiting friends and were treated to this wonderful restaurant. I was very pleasingly surprised to be at this restaurant. The ambience was exceptional and me very proud to be a Filipino. Thank you to the late Carlos P Romulo. The food was very well prepared, the presentation was impressive and the umami was out of this world. Kudos to the management.
The food here is terrific. There are flavors in the food you don't get anywhere else. It's truly authentic. I got a mock cocktail that was the most amazing drink ever and looked so beautiful. The servers were patient and helpful. Can't wait to come back.
Nestled in Kensington is a welcome addition to the global cuisines available in the area. It is a small establishment and hence booking is recommended in advance! Chicken Inasal Sisig is a winner. A beautiful savoury concoction if you like your meat with a kick of multiple flavours. The Adobo chicken was fine slightly dry but a butcher knife should be mandatory to cut rather then standard cutlery. A cheesecake to takeaway was average. It's one of the rare restaurants that allows pets with customers so make of that what you will.
Came for the Friday tapas feast. I prefer the regular al a carte menu, but I would recommend this to people who are unfamiliar with filipino cuisine. There's a huge selection of tapas, which includes traditional fili dishes and some new modern takes by Romulo. I highly recommend their chicken sisig - I'd say its their unofficial signature dish. The calamari and kare kare are also great. You must finish off with their halo-halo, which is so refreshing and sweet. The lechon had the beautiful crispy skin, but the flesh was slightly dry. Also, the pancit was slightly underseasoned and could've been served at a hotter temperature. The servers were nice and knowledgeable about the menu - good for those who are new to fili food. The food came out very fast, faster than if it were their al a carte service. As a result, I think some of their dishes weren't of an ideal quality the lechon and pancit. I will say that the tapas menu is very reasonably priced considering the amount of food you get. If you're new to fili food, I'd recommend the Friday tapas menu. However, if you're familiar with the cuisine and want to try the classics with a twist, I'd go with their al a carte menu during the week.
I recently dined at this restaurant and I have to say that my experience was mixed. While the food was delicious, the service was quite disappointing. As this is a Filipino restaurant, I expected to experience the renowned hospitality of Filipinos, but unfortunately, that was not the case. On the bright side, the unlimited tasting menu was a great way to try different dishes, and I found the portions to be just the right size. The garlic rice was really lovely, and I absolutely loved the aubergine salad as well. The flavors were authentic and delicious, and it was definitely a great culinary experience. However, the poor service left a bad taste in my mouth, and I am not sure if I would come back again. While I enjoyed the food, the overall dining experience was not up to par with the standard that I expected from a Filipino restaurant. If you are solely looking for great food, then this restaurant is definitely worth a try, but if you are looking for exceptional service and hospitality, you may want to look elsewhere. Also it is worth noting that in addition to the poor service, the restaurant had a mandatory tip policy, which was quite disappointing. I do hope that they remove this policy and allow customers to tip based on the quality of service provided.
Lovely food. Incredibly strong flavors. I’ve had a lot of Filipino food, but this was a heightened experience. Enjoyed learning the history of Carlos Rumolo and his family. Definitely check it out! And the ube Cappuccino was delicious!
Had a delicious dinner here! To start, our server brought us each awarm pan de sal roll with a pat of butter. For drinks we had the Filipino shandy--beer mixed with sweet, citrus juice--and fresh ginger tea unsweetened. For the first course, we had Chicken Inasal Sisig yummy, but I would add chopped raw onions and just a squeeze of calamansi and "bulalo" soup in rich, flavorful broth. For the main course, we had braised beef rib and The General's Spring Chicken Adobo. The chicken adobo was tender, juicy, and flavorful. But the braised beef takes the prize. I liked the honey chili demi-glaze that came with it more than the adobo demi-glaze. And the salad with pinoy dressing was the perfect accompaniment. We finished off with halo-halo loaded with jackfruit, ube, sweet bananas, young coconut, jellies, flan, and rice crisps on top of finely shaven ice. This is by far the best halo-halo I've ever had!
