Brought my aunt from the UK & relatives.
Great food though service needs improvement.
Long wait for food.
Plates could be placed upon arrival.
Appetizer should have been brought before main dishes or could have asked otherwise.
Servers were not as present when needed.

Variety of dishes perhaps the food in a style of a province in PH🇵🇭, I never seen a lechon kawali looking like crispy pata tossed in a sinigang before 🤣 Maybe it just me I came from Manila & I dont like my crispy pata soggy in a soup. The food gets cold fast, perhaps invest on a hot plate or a plug-in pot.. the place is spacious enough to have those equipment around. The crispy pata side sauce was diluted & it came in half an ounce remkin.. it should be at least 3oz

We were really looking forward to trying this Filipino restaurant, & while the food itself was decent, the service unfortunately made the experience disappointing.

The main dishes took a very long time to arrive, even though the restaurant wasn't overly busy. We tried to be patient, but the wait felt excessive. What was even more frustrating was the dessert service - we had already paid, & it still took about an hour for the desserts to come out. By that point, we were honestly just tired & ready to leave.

The flavors were good & you can tell there's potential here, but the long delays really impacted the overall experience. I hope the restaurant can improve their timing & service flow, because with better service, this could have been a much better visit.

Kalapaw offered such a good variety of classic Filipino dishes. We had masarap na gulay, sizzling pork sisig, pork bbq & turon. The food was amazing & comforting, we ended up taking a palabok to go! Shoutout to Monnet for making the best pork bbq & turon! Will definitely be back when I visit Montreal again :) Service was great

Really disappointing experience The food was significantly delayed, & several dishes had an overwhelmingly strong vinegar taste The shrimp did not appear fresh, & the service was minimal & at times unfriendly. I also experienced a headache & stomach pain after the meal.

Been here multiple times & have never been disappointed. If you're looking for a family friendly restaurant with authentic filipino dishes, look no further. The thirty minute drive is always worth it

A small & cozy restaurant. While its menu may not boast an extensive array of choices, the 2 persons combo is highly rated & celebrated for its eyes-appealing presentation. Many dishes have somewhat similar taste to the Chinese dishes, but even for those who are familiar with Chinese food is still worthy to go
