Can’t understand the 1 star reviews 🤔 we had a totally different experience.
It was 10pm. No restaurants were open, Kamayan was the only place that let us come in to sit and eat.
The server let us know that all they had left was the food in the Bain Marie since the kitchen had closed.
Our hearts dropped for a moment since this usually doesn’t go well. But we were so wrong.
This was some of the best Filipino food we’ve had in London and this was only their Bain Marie food at the end of the night!
Despite the kitchen being closed, he made an exception and cooked us fried aubergines that came with picked vegetables and that was so declious! We also got the Bicol Express (chilli pork belly) and Pork Adobo - both from the Bain Marie but still nice and hot. Of course we also got rice as typical asians do 🫡
If you’re in the area, do not miss this. We can’t wait to go back. 5 stars. They really deserve a much higher rating and so underrated!

We had a really disappointing experience here. We traveled quite far just to try this Filipino restaurant, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to expectations.
We arrived around 8:00 PM, placed and paid for our order online, and settled in. About 30 minutes later, we were asked to move tables, which was already inconvenient. By 9:30 PM, our food still hadn’t arrived—even though the restaurant was nearing closing time and we were extremely hungry. When we followed up, we were told the order hadn’t even been relayed to the chef yet. After another 10 minutes, the food finally came out. The quality didn’t justify the long wait or the price. The kare-kare (around £18) had a very small portion—just three small pieces of oxtail (mostly bone), minimal vegetables, and a sauce that felt lacking. The lechon kawali was tough and served cold, with barely any sauce. Even the rice was cold and overpriced for such a small serving. The halo-halo tasted good, but again, the portion was quite small. Overall, the experience was frustrating—from the service to the food quality and pricing. Hopefully this was just a one-off, but based on this visit, it’s hard to recommend.

The food and the presentation were both terrible. The customer service was really poor, and the portion sizes were extremely disappointing — especially considering we paid £49 in total. It felt like a complete rip‑off. We won’t be returning, which is a real shame. So disappointed.
