Review Summary

Cuisine De Manille earns praise for authentic Filipino flavors, generous portions, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere with a variety of dishes that are often described as flavorful and comforting. The kamayan feast and tasting platters are a standout, offering a communal way to sample the menu, and the finger foods like fried chicken and pork items are frequently highlighted. Service is repeatedly noted as friendly and accommodating, and the space is described as clean and cozy, with staff going the extra mile in many instances. Some reviews mention consistency issues and value concerns, including dishes that feel oily or one note, items missing from special menus, higher prices for comparable portions, cold rice, and packing or napkin shortages, especially for takeout or busy times. Takeout and catering receive strong praise for reliability and presentation, with catering being a popular option for parties and celebrations. Overall, Cuisine De Manille is viewed as a solid go to for Filipino comfort food in Montreal, with multiple standouts and a lively, family friendly vibe, though some guests caution about variability and pricing.

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!

📍Kamayan
Delicious & fun! A generous spread of meats, seafood, & rice, it's perfect for sharing. We picked BBQ pork & chicken legs. The garlic rice was a bit dry, & I wish there was hot sauce for extra kick.

📍Halo-Halo
Cool & refreshing with just the right sweetness. Loved the ube & leche flan!!!

📍Honey Melon Juice
You can really taste the fresh melon! Light, fresh, & super refreshing. Great match with the meal.
However $12 per drink is a bit overpriced.

Cuisine de Manille never disappoints! I always go for the Kamayan feast, & it's absolutely delicious & huge. From the crispy fried calamari to the flavorful BBQ pork & chicken, every dish is paired with its own sauce & sides like pickled veggies that add a nice touch. They recently changed the eggplant boat in the feast to a mashed eggplant with tomato. While it's still tasty, I personally prefer the previous version. For dessert, I always treat myself to a halo-halo. The creamy richness of the leche cake combined with the refreshing shaved ice is the perfect ending to the meal. I've tried a few other dishes, but they didn't quite suit my palate-just personal preference! Overall, the food is amazing, & the staff are super friendly. One thing to note: there's a $1 extra charge for garlic fried rice, so keep that in mind. Highly recommend giving this place a try!
