Cuisine de Manille is a fantastic spot if you're looking for flavorful & authentic Filipino food. The service was quick, efficient, & friendly, which made the experience even better. The restaurant itself is more casual with only a few tables available, & they do not take reservations, but it still feels welcoming & comfortable. The food was the highlight of the visit, everything we ordered was incredibly delicious, rich in flavor, & clearly made with care. The portion sizes are also very generous for the price you pay, making it excellent value overall. I would definitely go back to try even more dishes from their menu.

I can't believe I've never reviewed this spot. I've gone here a few times when I lived in mtl a few years ago. Delicious food with great portions & pricing!

This is hands down the best Filipino restaurant I have tried & I tell you I have tried MANY mostly in Mississauga & a few in Toronto. We only came to Montreal for a day tour & started to crave for Halo Halo. We looked up for Filipino restaurants near where we are but every one of them were more than 10Km away. Thank God for the all day train pass & we literally went super excited to get to Cuisine De Manille 8 stops later. We ordered a must broth of Spare Ribs Sinigang to match the Cebu Lechon, a Kare Kare & Goat Kaldereta were added as well as a small plate of Cassava Cake. Ofcourse the Halo Halo as our dessert.
The Pork Sinigang was the bomb with the sourness that perfectly meets what we have wanted for a Sinigang to taste like! We were also impressed with the crispiness of the Cebu Lechon & thought that was it, but then we tried the Goat Caldereta & we were instantly fans! We totally forgot about touching the Cebu Lechon after that Goat Caldereta sauce touched our palate! The Kare Kare according to my friend was nothing extra ordinary, the Cassava Cake wasn't sweet which is a good thing. It was just right. We were just too full slurping that heaven sent Pork Sinigang broth I barely touched the spare ribs but still ate one & it was good, then back again to the broth! The serving was good enough for 2-3 people to share but because it tastes so good, I would recommend to limit it to 2 so you won't fight over it in the end. The Sinigang was also packed with lots of veggies. The goat Caldereta was the highlight of our late lunch, it was unforgettable & we were trying to figure out how the sauce was made & maybe we can try cooking it at home but meh! I don't think so! It's too special to even attempt to duplicate it. The Halo Halo was fantastic full of ingredients & refreshing for a hot day. Overall this restaurant is something every tourist MUST visit. It is small but enough to hold batches of starving locals & tourists alike. We saw foreigners taking home party trays & that made us proud. I rated 4 stars for the service because we had to request for the serving spoons, we were given platitos instead of full plates so my rice were falling off, I need space for all that deliciousness to contain! Also the napkins were a bit scarce. But the food is the most important thing.
I hope they put up another branch in Mississauga or Toronto (I can uber eats if it's gonna be in Toronto). Whoever is your chef(s), sir/ma'am, hats off to you! The best Filipino food ever, ever, ever! Ever. 🤤❣?🍽?

The food was okay, but the server was rude & had an attitude. It made the experience unpleasant.

Nothing innovative ,no elevated quality in the dishes - just simple,home cooking that any amateur can do in his kitchen. We (there's 2 of us) spent $57 taxes & tip included with 2 classic dishes,fried belly pork & a pork blood stew with rice & pickles. The belly pork has crispy skin but the meat part is mostly fat & the stew my companion brought it home as a left-over. There ,he did a much needed make-over by adding some vinegar to kill the metallic gameness from the blood & only then did it taste the authentic delicious dinuguan it should be in the first place. If they slash their prices by about 25% perhaps I think the place can attract more crowd & increase their staying probability now there are so many (& counting) competitions in the vicinity offering same ethnic cuisine.

We had a great experience at Cuisine de Manille in Montreal!

We chose this place because of the good Google reviews, & it definitely lived up to them. We ordered the kamayan platter, & it was absolutely delicious - it really reminded me of a traditional'boodle fight' back in the Philippines.

The platter included garlic fried rice, chicken BBQ, pork BBQ, calamari, ensaladang talong, & atchara - everything was flavorful & well-prepared. The presentation was also beautifully done.

What made it even more special was the atmosphere. The walls are decorated with Filipino memorabilia & even a framed news clip from when they first opened (around 2004, I believe). It really gives you that feeling of home.

We left feeling so full & happy. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, & it's one of the places I recommend to anyone craving authentic Filipino food in Montreal.

It's a very simple place; you don't have too many visual references, but it's fine. They give good service. My first time trying Filipino food, & I love it! I'll be back for sure to try the fried chicken, & the rest of the menu looks good.
