J'aime beaucoup commander à ce restaurant, les brochettes porc bbq & le pancit bihon miam. Cependant, le prix monte & la quantité diminue au fil des ans, décevant… Sinon ç'aurait été 5*

Not only was the place spick & span, but the person who served us, Rose, was very helpful & respectful! We are from Mexico & it was the first time we had tried Filipino food. It was DELICIOUS!!! Adobo reminded me of a mole, but with pork!!! What a great experience!!! If you are looking for Filipino food, then this is the place!

Unfortunately, I did not like my meal at Cuisine de Manille today. I had the kare-kare, & it felt very one-note. The dish had no acidity, no spice - just an oily taste from the fried pork & the peanut sauce. However, I did enjoy the garlic rice & the boiled green beans, although they were nothing to write home about.
As for the price, the menu said around $16 for my dish, but I was charged $20 (excluding taxes & the $1 extra for garlic rice). I think the menu prices should be updated to reflect that.

They served us cold rice! They have a shortage of napkins to clean your mouth so better bring your own. Boodle fight is mediocre at best & overpriced for what you get. Will never go back.

Amazing Filipino comfort food. The flavours, quality, portion, & price were excellent. The staff were friendly, & the the dining area was simple yet cozy.

Once a place to experience the Philippines without having to travel there the prices have gone up considerably & the portions gone down & the quality of food is not what you should get for what you now pay. Sad to see a place I once loved & frequented I now wouldn't go back. I want to update the review because Peter the manager reached out & showed a tremendous amount of care & took the time to respond & reach out on a personal level. I will judge not on the last 2 times I will judge for what the restaurant has always been in the past.

I was craving crispy pork belly & the other place I went to didn't have it so I came here instead.

Nice little comfy & lovey filippino resto... vibrant flavors of Philippine authentic cuisine-a tribute reflected in its name. Delicious food, we'll definitely be back for more.

The wings are to die for… I made one order & then went back & made a second because they were that good. The crisp, the sweetness,the hint of spice… seasoned to perfection. Hard to find in the city, truly. The service is outstanding & friendly. I will continue to support this establishment because I can tell they care & the quality is consistent. Special shout out, Michael:)

Cuisine de Manille catered my husband's 40th birthday & the food was an absolute hit! Everyone was asking where they could order more from. The communication was clear, timely. Everything was perfect & I wouldn't hesitate to use them again!
Kim
Amazing food! Quick responses to inquiries. I inquired about having 7 dishes for my birthday. They were kind enough to answer & recommended portion sizes. Everyone loved everything but the chicken inasal, kare-kare, & pancit were the biggest hit! Portion sizes were more than what I expected.
I appreciate that they accomodated my order despite the restaurant being closed because they already have 2 events that day. They accomodated allergies as well. Amazing customer service! Would definitely order again.

Ordered catering for my birthday party! Food was very tasty, I got the lumpia, adobo & palabok. Thank you again!
Andrei
AMAZING authentic Filipino food. I came there with my girlfriend & had the sisig, palabok, & halo-halo for dessert! AMAZING! I was actually born in the Philippines & had these dishes before, & eating here felt like home! Definitely recommend coming here!! We're also visiting from Massachusetts!! Definitely will be going back if we go back to Montreal!
