    I have no idea what this is

    11 7 Tambayan is a combo night club, grocery store and Filipino restaurant. I came to try the Fri - Sun Buffet offered for $25 per person. Drinks nor desserts are included. It's a super small buffet with super authentic foods. So authentic that I really had no idea what any of the things were. Service was not really too helpful as she wasn't around a lot. Everybody else there was Filipino and speaking their native language. They all seemed to know what all the foods were. I think you need to be Filipino to know these foods. I could recognize if it was fish or beef at least. I tried some fried fish and what looked like thin salty fried fish skin. I ate as much as I could, but none of the foods really got me too excited. As noted by others, some of the hot dishes were cold and I even got there right before 11am! There was sausage that tasted like Kielbasa ... sort of. For $25 a person buffet, it wasn't worth it to me, but to those that enjoy this kind of food that you can't get anywhere else in Reno, I suppose it's worth it, to get food of your homeland. I can see why they need to charge so much, cause the actual volume of customers is so small, they can't make up the costs with massive customers numbers like the big Chinese buffets do. This is a very small specialized food operation, pretty much for those wanting super authentic and I mean real authentic (no, there was no Lumpia), foods. As far as ambiance, there really is none, just bright florescent lights.

    Sisig is pretty good. It's just how I remember from many years ago in the Philippines. The only thing missing is the tabasco for the extra zing and spice. We tried a couple of isaw, too, and yes those are quite good too. This will be a spot to go to everytime we're in Reno.

    11 7 Tambayan makes me so happy because it reminds me so much of home. I grew up in a Philippino American family and enjoyed many of these same dishes. I'm someone who really loves garlic and the garlic rice couldn't have hit the spot for nostalgia more. It was my all time favorite way to enjoy rice when it had at least a cup of garlic in it lol! And of course the main favorites are Lumpia, Pork Adobo, Pancit, and Chicken Curry. My titas and titos always made the best food, including my favorite dessert which is Babinka. There is also a Philippino market inside where I found Ube ice cream and cookies and so many other treats that were constantly brought over to the house. Everything is so clean and organized and the service was excellent. I highly recommend a visit or two, or a hundred I know that I can't wait to go back!

    Sushi at a Filipino place? Who woulda thunk it? I haven't been to Tambayan before now because I just haven't been drawn to Filipino food that much. But I am always up for a new sushi experience and I heard they had just started a "soft opening" for their sushi bar. We starved ourselves before coming in so we could get through as much of the menu as possible. They are still in super soft opening phase. Working out any kinks that they have is a priority and you could tell because the head sushi chef was very attentive, making sure everything was to our liking, even suggesting a few rolls for us to try. He let us know his history and what they are hoping to do in the future. Here is the list of different things we ordered... Cucumber Salad Mussels Pork Egg Rolls Yellow Tail Nigiri Tuna Nigiri Salmon Nigiri Lemon Valley Roll Godzilla Roll (minus cream cheese) Ceviche Roll Adobo Chicken Baked Roll (half size) Spicy Salmon Hand Roll Ikura Upside Down Shrimp (scallop) Peach Dream Dessert Turon w Langka Dessert Everything was fine. No real complaints on anything. My favorites were the Ceviche Roll and the Mussels. The flavor profile on both of those was more unique than what I had expected. There were also a handful of rolls that I would definitely want to come back and try in the future. The price point is a little higher than what we normally pay for our AYCE sushi, but I think the unique offerings on the menu like the egg rolls make it worth the small upcharge. The interior of the place is interesting. You can see how the building has progressed over the years from a Mexican joint to what it is now. A little less "themed" than a themed restaurant, but also not the boring formica and white walls so many businesses seem to settle for today. I feels real mom and pop in a good way. Our server/waitress was super friendly and always there to clean up the dishes at just the right time. I would definitely go back for the sushi...especially if they are going to be getting all of the kinks worked out. They also offer a "best of both worlds" where you can have the Buffet for $10 on top of the AYCE sushi price. The real question is....will this become a "go to" for my sushi needs like a few other places in Reno?

    First off, I wanna say to the Owners of this establishment, I Guess, good job but try a bit with more quality of foods such as the lechon kawali, more skin please Naman, This place does has the ambience of the Philippines by hanging out with family and Barkadaz. But try to accommodate more authentication to the kababayan. Longsilog was Delicious but rushing here in the morning was kind of worth it. Can't wait to try to open a Seafood City here in Reno to give what the Filipinos want ...But only 3.dishes to me needs to be more on point. Lechon Kawali, Chicken wings and the Kare Kare...

    First time coming here to this place. I have seen previously but never went inside until now. I was amazed with the food the menu they had the portion size was very good. Very nice people working there. The food was delicious and looking forward to coming back again next time we are in Reno. They have karaoke and pool table. And hosting event with Filipino celebrities that's kool

    I guess that the 2nd time's the charm...LOL! After trying the buffet the first time I dropped by and having no idea what I ate...but, liking everything...I posted my original review on some local "foodie" pages on social media. Lo and behold...one of the chefs that works there saw my review and responded. He told me that the next time I came in, to ask for him and that he'd "walk me through" all the ins and out of Filipino cuisine (including the sauces/condiments), as well as clueing me in as to what the dishes were that were offered on the buffet that day (it changes daily)! I made it a point to do just that...BUT, it turns out that the day I went in, he was off from work...LOL! Fortunately, after asking for him and explaining why I was asking for him to the gentleman that seated me, the host offered to clue me in...which he did...very thoroughly and in great detail, I might add. It was nice to know what I was eating and what sauces/condiments were traditionally used on each dish! Those sauces/condiments added another whole dimension of flavor to everything I used them on and made everything even better than the first time I went in. This time (as I said, the offerings change daily), they had some dishes that I was familiar with. Delicious, crispy, flavorful Lumpia...roasted and deep fried Pork Belly...also, one of my faves, Sisig! It was such a pleasure to experience these foods with the right sauce/condiment added to it! I plan to go back to experience the buffet again and also to drop in during the evening to try their a la carte menu. Give it a try and see what YOU think...

    I haven' t tried their buffet, but their ala carte tastes authentic. I have tried a couple of Filipino restaurants in the U.S. and Canada, but so far 11 7 Tambayan's food is closer to home. The restaurant, though, was a little darker, maybe because they are going to install some slot machines. Aside from the food, it's nice that Filipinos and people with music at heart can do karaoke (Filipinos' favorite past time), and also listen to a band serenading the diners with Filipino music. I am really glad to find a Filipino restaurant that serves authentic Filipino dishes. I will definitely go back! Oh! The owners are very kind and accommodating!
