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.

The waiting time for take out is crazy long. I ordered 12:53 & got my order at around 1:30. When I arrived the couple before me who wants take out backed out because waiting time is 1 hr. , (I assumed they have more order than me)Shouldve been my hint 🤣 I ordered anyway coz Im really craving filipino food (the restaurant I usually go to didnt have take out that day)
& its just 1 order, inasal & rice. While waiting, there was a family at the bar (I thought they are also ordering take out) but they were given plates & etc. after sometime i looked again at their direction I thought they were done eating but i realized their food wasnt served even. 😬 they cancelled eventually coz they were told 20mins more.
You seriously need to improve your preparation time.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kalapaw Filipino Cuisine in the West Island of Montreal, & I have to say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish.
I ordered the Chicken Adobo with rice, & it was absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich & authentic, with the perfect balance of savory, tangy, & slightly sweet - just how adobo should be. The chicken was tender & well-marinated, & the portion size was generous.
For dessert, I tried one of their Filipino sweets (I won't spoil it for you!), & it was simply amazing - the perfect way to end the meal. Sweet, comforting, & full of nostalgic flavor.
The service was another highlight: fast, professional, & very courteous. I felt welcomed the moment I walked in. The staff clearly takes pride in what they do.
The ambiance is warm, friendly, & relaxed. Whether you're new to Filipino cuisine or looking for a taste of home, Kalapaw provides a comfortable space to enjoy a great meal.
Highly recommend for anyone craving quality Filipino food in the West Island. I'll definitely be back!

The food & service at this restaurant is amazing!! Everything is so fresh & delicious: we ordered the oxtail, pork skewers & garlic fried rice. I highly recommend to those who want to try the best food from the Philippines!
We ordered Kare-Kare,Pinaputok na Isda; Halo-Halo, Kapampangan Halo-Halo, Garlic Rice. They are all good! It is not easy to find a good Filipino restaurant in Montreal . This is the one you have to try!
I love to support Philippine cuisine but I must be honest here. The place is beautiful & very clean with lots of space. However, there was only one waitress & it took quite a bit of time to get served. (It's not her fault) However her personality was a little underwhelming as a Pinay & for a waitress. Didn't smile or acknowledge most of what we were saying to her. The shrimp was awful! It was severely over cooked & was soggy. The quality was very cheap & not acceptable. The lechon kawali was very dry. I would suggest they need to work on the freshness of their food & the quality. The BBQ chicken was excellent! The BBQ pork as well as the rice was pretty good. I would go back because I want them to succeed but I think they need to work on some things. Compared to Republika they have a long ways to go for taste, quality & freshness.
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!
For me, It's way too expensive for a regular size pusit inihaw $17 good for one person (about 4 inches) with no special seasoning.. my daughter ordered chicken inasal & it was not that good.. there's no rice or potatoes included, we need to pay another $9 for just the rice good for two...
Great Filipino cuisine on the West Island. We had the Lumpiang Shanghai pork rolls to start, which were perfectly deep fried & tasty. We ordered two meals & shared the huge portions family-style. We shared the Sizzling Sisig (a hot sizzling plate of tender tasty chopped pork) & the Kare-Kare (fall-apart oxtail in a rich peanut sauce). We also devoured the must-have delicious garlic fried rice. For dessert, we had the huge Halo-Halo & a Calamansi Leche Flan. The menu is more than typical, & the portions are shareable & delicious. A definite must-try for foodies.
Decided to try Kalapaw & it was 40% salty. We got several dishes as it's our first time to visit! We ordered the chicken inasal but it was disappointing. It was hard & salty, good thing it came with a vegetable salad to help with the saltiness. We also ordered sisig but it turned out salty, too! The kare kare, lechon kawali, calamares, sinigang, garlic rice were good tho! Overall, I recommend you to visit & try! :)
