Tried the kare kare which was creamy, had a good peanuty flavor (though not too strong/personal pref would have been an even stronger peanut flavor), and the oxtail was nice & soft.

In comparison, the pancit was ok but didn't really stand out/not my favorite (perhaps a bit mild in taste compared to the other dishes.

Walking into Grub, I had a good feeling and I wasn't disappointed. If you're looking to share small…read moreeclectic bites, you'll find plenty to like. This Asian fusion spot in a nondescript plaza has a large menu with a lot of small plates/street food, baos (with varying fillings), tacos/quesadillas/tostadas, curry, traditional Asian dishes, poutine, burgers, noodles like pad thai and plenty of veg-friendly items. We most enjoyed the chicken empanadas (generous filling, good flavor), cod tacos, and vegetarian spring rolls. The tofu lettuce wrap didn't have a strong flavor even though it seemed to have a lot of sauce. The beef Jerky (a bit tough and chewy) and vegetarian dumplings were okay, but not favorite items. We didn't order any items that were larger portion and it's very easy to rack up the bill with $9-12 small bites. Inside, you could forget that you're in suburbia because this place is pretty trendy. There's artwork and words on the wall and the menu tries to be clever (succeeds in some ways but not necessarily to grammar snobs). There's a 3% surcharge for credit card purchases. There's a Chinese food restaurant and Taimoca coffee place in the plaza as well.

Staff is friendly and warm, seems like a reservation heavy establishment but we were able to snag a table for 4 upon opening. Shortly after arrival the rest of the tables of 4 and even 10 filled up quickly. The dishes are huge and we left with plenty of leftovers. Happy bellies with meals made from the heart. Spring rolls 5/5 what a huge plate! Crispy and delicious. Bulalo soup 5/5 really hit the spot. Piping hot and could feed all 4 of us as a side or 2 people as a dish. Beef noodle soup (5/5) (had a bit of sweetness in case folks aren't into that) it was incredible tasty, ample meat and veggies and packed with flavor. My girls shared this and still had leftovers.

It was about 25 minutes away from where we were but the great experience here made our drive worth. The place is very homey with a wonderful staff. Service is impeccable. The owners are very friendly and has great customer relations skills. The foods are excellent. We had the pleasure of trying their bangus sisig, pork bbq and caldereta. The tastes exceeded our expectations. We learned that their chef hailed from Luzon so the degree of cooking style satisfied our taste buds. The calamansi drink I had was fabulous. Honestly, the best I had so far. Our halo/halo dessert was heavenly. Satisfied our sweet tooth. The serving size is in huge portion. Each order is shareable by around 2-3 people. Pricing is higher in comparison to other place but proportioned to the serving size. I have one star less for my review for two reasons- 1.The check includes a service charge that confused us if a gratuity should be given or not. We need to Google first for right information. We ended up adding gratuity for their hospitality . 2. Looking for parking spot is challenging. We ended up downloading the town's parking mobile app to get parked closer. We are willing to return if ever we are near the area.

Hapág Bistro is a wonderful spot that I've enjoyed both dining in and ordering takeout from, and…read moreit's been consistently great each time. The food is incredibly flavorful and satisfying. It really feels like a home cooked meal made with care. While the prices aren't the cheapest, the quality and taste absolutely justify it. You can tell there's a lot of attention put into each dish. My personal favorite is the lechon kawali paired with their garlic rice. It is crispy, rich, and packed with flavor. The dining space itself is cute, cozy, and very clean, making it a perfect little date night spot. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which adds to the overall experience. It isn't the fastest service, so I wouldn't recommend coming here if you're on a time crunch. It's a great place to sit down and relax, and really enjoy the food. One thing to keep in mind is that their hours can be a bit unusual, so it's definitely worth checking ahead before you go. Location-wise, it's also a great stop. It is just a short walk from the local brewery and the rail trail, making it an ideal place to grab a meal after a walk or before heading out for a couple of beers. Overall, a fantastic spot if you're looking for comforting, high quality Filipino food in a cozy setting.

The only other time I'd been to a Filipino spot was years ago at Jeepney in NYC with Yelp friends…read morefor a UYE. I'm not claiming expert status on Filipino food because I'm nowhere close. But there are a few universal similarities with Latin food: rice, seafood (because I'm a pescatarian) and garlic- to name a few. Then there's their halo-halo dessert. So when Hapág Bistro popped up in my Yelp pages- in Highland, NY no less and conveniently close to work- I was in. Hapág is cozy the second you step in here. My eyes immediately went up to the ceiling where these folks have faux greenery+florals hanging across the space. It actually softens Hapág and adds a little "nature". I was here on a tight clock and didn't have time to sit down for a full meal. But while I looked at the menu at work, one thing immediately jumped at me: halo-halo. This thing is sweet. It's a sweet explosion of shaved ice, creamy ube goodness, jellies, fruit and leche flan tucked in like little treasures. Then comes the ice cream on top tying the whole shit together. Every spoonful is cold, creamy and sugary in the best way. Shoutout to my girl Danielle, who was super pleasant and had one of those smiles that totally makes the place feel even more welcoming. Next time I'll actually stay long enough to eat real food- but for a quick pop-in, Hapág came out on top with dessert alone.

I enjoyed the tapsilog but the beef was different than the usual but the rice was good too! The ube pancakes was overloaded with berries! So good! The restaurant is smaller than what I thought it would be but its cozy. The bathroom placement was just different, you have to go through the kitchen BUT the bathroom is so clean! The food was served in paper plates and plastic utensils, which i wish was not the case because the less waste the better for the environment but I get it though the manpower is lacking! I was not informed that there was an extra $1 charge for the whipped cream in my coffee. I wouldve opted out of the whipped cream. The people were nice all throughout but it was just those two things that can be improved on! BUT the Ube pandesal with cheese was sooooo good and unexpected. It seems like cream cheese was used as the filling and they were generous with it too.

A Filipino Gem in Yonkers - Comfort Food Done Right…read more If you're craving authentic Filipino comfort food with a modern twist, Hapag Filipino in Yonkers is absolutely worth the stop. We ordered the Lola Basket, and it truly lived up to its name--warm, nostalgic, and packed with all the little bites you remember from family gatherings. The basket itself was generous and beautifully arranged, like something your grandmother would prepare before insisting you eat more. Every item was spot-on: * Crispy lumpia with that perfect shatter when you bite in. * Tender pork skewers, smoky with just the right hint of sweetness. * Garlic rice that actually tastes like garlic rice, not bland filler. * And the pancit--light, savory, and layered with flavor the way it should be. What stood out most was how everything tasted fresh and intentionally prepared. The Lola Basket is the kind of sampler that gives you a little bit of everything without compromising quality. Service was friendly, warm, and genuinely welcoming--exactly the kind of hospitality that makes Filipino dining special. You can feel the pride in the food and the culture from the moment you walk in. If you're looking for a place to introduce someone to Filipino cuisine, want a comforting weekend meal, or just miss real home-cooked flavors, Hapag Filipino hits the mark. The Lola Basket alone is reason enough to come back. Highly recommend.

The place has short hours which is unfortunate maybe it's the area they're located in. When you…read morewalk in you're welcomed warmly and the staff is very friendly. They do charge more if you use a credit card instead of paying cash. The ambiance is inviting and warm, they have tables and also a community table next to the cashier. I ordered the lumpia pork which were amazing but tiny. The sweet sauce was ok, tasted more like duck sauce than sweet chili. I may have been unlucky there with the pour. But the lumpia were very authentic and full of flavor. The pancit was a let down, the noodles were still a bit raw and not much in terms of seasoning or flavor. It was a huge let down as it's usually one of my favorite Filipino dishes to order. The place had a good crowd inside and lots of to go orders being picked up. Will definitely try again as the food was decent despite the let down with the pancit. I did cook the noodles a little longer at home and added more seasoning and it became amazing. So taking it as a tiny error on their part otherwise it would have been a 5 star review. Since some reviews mention they only cater to Filipinos that is not true at all from my experience. I'm not Filipino and they were warm and friendly. (Not even sure why I have to put this, but seems to be necessary as the 1-3 star reviews all claimed they got poor food and service cause they were not Filipino)

I'm not in the habit of driving within 25 yards of Neil's Donuts when I know they're closed. But…read moreif I do, it's because I was craving lumpia or other Filipino food from Kayumangi Authentic Filipino ("KAF"). KAF is a small Filipino Market, that serves a number of prepared Filipino foods cafeteria style, and they also have a kitchen for preparing some additional menu items. I hadn't visited since before the Pandemic, but I felt KAF's lumpia calling me this week. I arrived around 5:30 and I was the only customer at that time. The cafe part of the business is in the back. There are a few tables for dining in. The atmosphere is decent, but not a selling point since the Market's merchandise is in view. Service is a hybrid model. I've always ordered at the cash register. For food that's ready, they just plate it and bring it to you. If you order from the menu, they prepare it and bring it to you. However, it's not the type of place where they bring you a glass of water and occasionally refill it. It's more like you're eating at Chipotle, except they bring your food to you. I ordered lumpia and Menudo. If you haven't had lumpia, they look similar to fried spring rolls. KAF's are filled with what seems like a cooked pork and veggie mixture that is mostly meat. It's crispy and tasty. KAF's Menudo is a stew of pork chunks, liver, potatoes, carrots, peas, etc. It tastes like a dish you might get at a Filipino friend's house. The meat and veggies were tender and the sauce was mild and savory. When I score a place like Kayumangi, I don't compare it to sit down restaurants. I compare it to other small food markets that happen to serve food. Another thing in Kayumangi's favor is that I'm not aware of other Filipino options in the nearby areas. With those caveats, I give Kayumangi 4 Stars and I will return when the mood strikes me.
