Kalapaw est largement reconnu comme une destination de choix à Montréal pour sa cuisine philippine authentique, offrant un intérieur spacieux et bien décoré ainsi qu'un stationnement pratique. De nombreux clients louent la générosité des portions et la qualité des plats emblématiques comme le crispy pata, l'adobo et le dessert halo halo, soulignant que le restaurant propose une atmosphère chaleureuse et familiale qui rappelle le goût du pays. Bien que la majorité des visiteurs soulignent la gentillesse et le professionnalisme du personnel, des rapports récurrents font état d'une lenteur de service et de difficultés de communication durant les périodes d'affluence. Malgré des expériences parfois variables concernant les temps d'attente et les procédures administratives, le sentiment général demeure positif, de nombreux clients étant impatients de revenir pour savourer ces plats pleins de saveurs dans un cadre convivial.
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
The best place to eat & they serve good foods with the best quality of taste & the atmosphere was nice & relaxing not to much noise & we are so happy the way they served us.Kalapaw is a highly recommended for any person who likes Filipino Dishes.thumbs up for Kalapaw👍
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
Rsvp for 12 people on Saturday, May 25th for 4:30pm. Cons Service: Server was not the quickest. She never came to ask us: How was everything? Is there anything else I can get you? Do you need containers for leftovers? We always had to go to her or flag her down.. Asides from that, they played happy birthday music & sung the birthday song for the celebrant which was a very kind gesture! Thank you! Halo-Halo was bland & in my opinion, not your typical Halo-Halo. There wasn't much shaved ice. Pros The food was delicious & fresh. Not too salty to which was great because Filipinos tend to over season their dishes. We ordered the following; - Kare-Kare: loved! Veggies we're cooked to perfection (nice & crisp. Not over cooked). Oxtail was dinger licking good. - Sisig: first time having it & loved it! Nice kick of spicyness. - Palabok: good & fresh but not my favorite - Eggroll: Piping hot, crispy & fresh! - Porc bbq: very good & flavorful. - Lechon: nice & crispy! - Fried calamari: delicous & not overcooked. - Steamed rice: Fresh batch! - Adobo rice: didn't get the chance to taste it. - A whole ube cheesecake: delectable! I couldn't stop eating it! It was so good! Overall, will definitely come back & order for catering! Thank you!
