Food: Flavorful food with hefty portions

The Original Barrio Fiesta Of Manila does not shy away with heaping portions of authentic Filipino dishes. Kare-Kare and Crispy Pata, Pancit Canton, and Pork Sinigang are loved by many for their distinct flavors and generous servings. The variety in the menu leaves one spoiled for choices, the quality, however, leaves room for debate. Some find the freshness lacking, necessitating an extra scramble for condiments.

  • Great Value

    Food worth every dollar, especially with family meal combinations.

  • Okay Variety

    Menu much bigger, many offerings, quality not assessed.

  • Low Quality

    Bland food requiring additional condiments to enhance flavor.

Vibe: Lacking in appealing ambiance

The restaurant lacks in terms of ambiance. Its location, in a standard strip mall, does little to enhance the overall dining experience. The atmosphere lacks warmth and does not evoke feelings of a welcoming Filipino neighborhood.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Not welcoming and strip mall location detracts from ambiance.

Perks: Efficient service amidst chaotic parking

The inconvenience of chaotic parking and long waits for larger groups without reservations are softened by the attentive and quick service provided by the friendly staff. Children would find the environment neat and colorfully appealing although no specific kid-friendly amenities are mentioned. The restaurant shines when catering for large groups, with its mammoth portion sizes that are perfect for sharing.

  • Great For Groups

    Large group accommodations with sizeable portions for sharing, highly recommended.

  • Okay For Kids

    Clean, bright with cute decor, but no direct kid-friendly mentions.

  • Hard To Park

    Parking during peak hours can be quite chaotic and inconvenient.
