About the food
Are your delivery prices the same as the dine-in prices?
Yes. Every price on this website is our in-house menu price, whether you eat in, collect or have it delivered.
Do you serve pork?
No pork is served at Pinoy Tambayan.
Is the food halal?
Pinoy Tambayan is not halal certified. No pork is served at any time. We are asked this often for corporate and bulk orders, so tell us your requirement when you enquire and we will tell you exactly what our kitchen does and does not do. We will not claim a certification we do not hold.
What is Filipino food like?
Filipino cooking is savoury, sour and garlicky rather than chilli hot. Adobo is braised in vinegar, soy and garlic. Sinigang is a sour tamarind soup. Sisig is chopped and served sizzling on a hot plate. Most dishes are built to share, and rice is part of the meal rather than a side.
What should I order if I have never eaten Filipino food?
Start with Pancit Bihon at AED 25, the dish our reviewers name most, and Sizzling Beef Sisig at AED 39. Both are savoury rather than sour and come to the table looking like what they are. Finish with Halo Halo at AED 29.
What is sisig?
Sisig is chopped meat, seasoned and served sizzling on a cast iron plate. We serve it four ways: beef at AED 39, chicken at AED 35, tofu at AED 27 and bulalo at AED 51.
What is bulalo?
Bulalo is a clear beef shank soup with bone marrow, cooked long and slow, served with corn and greens. Ours is AED 51 and is portioned for two people.
What is sinigang?
Sinigang is a sour soup, traditionally soured with tamarind. We serve five versions: Sinigang na Bangus at AED 49, Tanigue at AED 51, Baka at AED 53, Sinigang na Hipon, and Pesang Bangus at AED 39. It is one of the two dishes our customers name most in reviews, alongside pancit.
What is halo halo?
Halo halo means mix mix. It is shaved ice layered with sweet beans, jellies, fruit and leche flan, topped with ube and evaporated milk. Ours is AED 29 and it is the reason Google marks this restaurant as good for dessert.
What is a boodle fight?
A boodle fight is a Filipino shared feast. Food is laid out on banana leaves down the middle of the table and everyone eats together with their hands. Ours is a seafood spread served with unlimited rice and iced lemon tea, from AED 71 for one person up to AED 299 for six.
What is pancit?
Pancit is stir fried noodles, traditionally eaten on birthdays for long life. We make bihon with thin rice noodles at AED 25, canton with egg noodles at AED 23, and malabon with thick noodles and seafood at AED 27.
What is a silog?
Silog is a Filipino breakfast set: garlic fried rice, a fried egg and a protein. Tapsilog is cured beef, tocilog is sweet cured pork-free tocino, longsilog is sausage, daingsilog is dried fish. Ours are AED 29 to AED 31 and come with a drink.
Does every dish come with rice?
Every main dish comes with one free rice. Boodle fights come with unlimited rice. Solo meals and silog sets include rice as part of the set.
Do you have vegetarian dishes?
Yes. Stirfry Broccoli with Tofu at AED 43, Tofu Sisig at AED 27, Ginataang Gulay at AED 35, Chopsuey at AED 39 and Tortang Talong at AED 27. Tell us when you order if you need them cooked without fish sauce.
Is the food spicy?
Most Filipino food is savoury and sour rather than chilli hot. Bopis and sisig can carry some heat. Tell us when you order if you want a dish milder or spicier.
How big are the portions?
Portions are large and built for sharing. Bulalo is portioned for two. Customers regularly take food home. If you are ordering for one, the solo meals and silog sets are sized for a single person.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about any allergy when you order and we will tell you what is in the dish and whether the kitchen can avoid it. Please assume shared cooking equipment.
Do you serve seafood?
Yes, extensively. Cajun Shrimp at AED 61, Cajun Crab at AED 67, Buttered Garlic Shrimp at AED 41, grilled and fried fish, sinigang with fish and prawn, and the seafood boodle fight from AED 71.
What are your best sellers?
The dishes marked best seller on our own menu are Chicken Skin, Lumpiang Shanghai, Grilled Chicken, Chicken Pinaputok, Pancit Bihon, Pancit Malabon, Arroz Caldo, Goto, Beef and Chicken Sisig combos, Tapsilog, Daingsilog and Buko Pandan.
Is your grilled chicken the same as inasal?
Yes. Our Grilled Chicken Filipino style is chicken inasal, marinated and charcoal grilled. A whole chicken is AED 39 and a half is AED 23.
Do you have unlimited rice?
The boodle fight comes with unlimited rice and iced lemon tea. Every other main dish includes one free rice.
