Filipino restaurant that we stop at when in Miami. Very busy and crowded at 9:30 am on a Sunday. So they must be doing something right. I don't particularly like Filipino food read more

If you are in downtown Miami and craving for Filipino food, then this is the place. Was invited over by a friend who lives here and we sure enjoyed the home cooking buffet. I had jeproks, longanisa, sisig, sinigang, binagoongang talong, and pinakbet. They had pancit, chocolate meat, tuyo, fried fish, bicol express, adobo and fried chicken. For dessert, they had boiled taro with brown sugar topping, cassava and leche flan. The mother-daughter (I think) team owner were so welcoming. And the food, you will think of home. read more

I was In Miami for a vacation and I really wanted to come here after I saw Mike Chan's review (food vlogger). This is a carinderia type buffet and I was ready for it. It's just inside a Filipino store and I didn't mind as I was really excited to eat Filipino buffet. They give you disposable plate and cutleries and it's open space. Nothing fancy but it's so okay. I was there for the food. The food- YES, YUM!! 5/5 The classics were there- sinigang soup, adobo,pancit, binagoongan, sisig, lechon kawali, garlic shrimps and much more. Some of them are not warm as I came in around 2 pm but they will reheat it for you. I ate with so much gusto. Owner and staff were sooo very friendly, owner was constantly checking on us. She even opened a pack of leche flan when my husband asked if they have some. $12!!!! Yes.... $12 dollars for all the yummy pinoy goodness. This is even cheaper than a Mojito in our hotel. I was very happy and glad I came here. I'm giving this 5 stars because I was very happy. Pls note that the ambiance is not fancy but my overall experience was fantastic so 5 stars all the way. I took a video and I can't upload but trust me when I said the spread was really good. read more

The Manila Kantina is conveniently located in Flagler St, close to Biscayne Boulevard and a few minutes walk from American Airlines, Bayside Marketplace and Bayfront Park. A home away from home atmosphere, they have eat-all-you-can Filipino lunch buffet, reasonably priced at $10/person, and served according to your needs and liking. The friendly staff are attentive to customers and attentive to details especially during this pandemic so social distancing and mask is required and they provide sanitizers for customers to use when they enter the place. The food is great and appetizing from hot Filipino favorites, and desserts as well. They also sell Filipino groceries so you can buy almost everything here from snacks, pancit canton, condiments/sauces, goldilocks products, hopia, tapa, tocino, and even frozen marinated baby bangus/milkfish. Freshly baked ube pan de sal, and homemade halayang ube and maja blanca are for sale as well. Delivery and pick up food is also offered. Come and visit if you're around the area. read more

This market was amazing. The people and the vibe of this place was very heartwarming and inviting. It made me feel like I just went to my grandmas for dinner. My friends and I stopped by after getting off our cruise. We were looking for some authentic Asian food after spending a week eating crappy American food. This place definitely hit the spot. An AYCE homemade Filipino food. Although none of my friends and I are not Filipino, the aunties and uncles were very inviting. They took good care of us; providing us with authentic Filipino cuisine as well as description of the foods, giving us a space to put our luggage, and just making sure our experience was superb. If I ever came back to visit Miami again, I would definitely make sure to stop by here. read more

I've really grown to love Filipino cuisine because my fiancé is half Filipino. We found the best spot for truly authentic homemade Filipino food. We had Manila Kantina make some party platters for our Cuban family this Thanksgiving and they all absolutely loved it. We had the dessert Buko Pandang, pancit (noodles), and lumpia (a cross between egg rolls and smaller spring rolls). If you're looking for delicious and genuine homemade Filipino food, you have to try Manila Kantina in Downtown Miami. read more

It doesn't look like much when you walk past but this is such a good place to stop by for some Filipino food. There's also some shopping you can do inside for products or foods from the Philippines. There's some traffic construction in the front, but that didn't affect anything much. 10/10 would recommend and would return again! read more

Absolutely fantastic food and service. The workers are so nice! Food was excellent, highly recommend.

This is the place that turned me on to Filipino food! They always have a large variety of food, of which my absolute favorite is Sisig. The staff is a always very welcoming and attentive, they take good care of me anytime I'm in the Kantina. The place gets pretty packed for lunch, so I advise you to get there early. Their all-you-can-eat buffet is very affordable, the food is fresh and includes dessert. Drinks are charged separately. read more

This place serves traditional Filipino home cooking. SO YUMMY! Like my Lola's home cooking! The owners are so sweet and they make you feel right at home. The restaurant is a small cafe/market, no frills just DELICIOUS food that won't break the bank! I came in for a late lunch on a Monday and it was packed! The customers are mostly Filipino's from the nearby cruise ship. You know the saying "eat where the locals eat. " Well, this is it! Looking forward to coming back! read more

The food was absolutely delicious and I will for sure be 100% coming back! What an amazing combo, the food and the people/service is incredible! Thank you "Tita" Judith and "Tito" Noi for being so hospitable towards me, God bless you guys. You guys are gems of people, it's hard to find people as sweet as you guys! Make sure to try their dinuguan, it's one of their bestsellers and it was so good, I'll definitely be eating it again! This is coming from someone who is sometimes hesitant to try new exotic types of foods, but it was AMAZING! And last comment, I live down south here in Miami-Dade county, but I would 100% travel and make the commute just to eat here! What a pleasant experience overall! I most definitely recommend Manila Kantina! Come here you'll love it! read more

I absolutely loved this place!! First time in Miami and I was wanting authentic Philippine food, my favorites were the Sinigang, Lechon, Longganiza, and Cassava cake! If you can't make it to the location itself they are on Uber eats, Doordash, and GrubHub super convenient. They also have a grocery section for Philippine snacks! They were the most polite and welcoming family owned restaurant I encountered in Miami. Definitely will go again on my next trip!!! read more

Masarap!! Seriously, I should've discovered this place sooner. Prices were reasonable, they have lunch buffet for $10 and carry out for $5. Their jasmine rice is so delicious and reminiscent of home. Their adobo is WOW and fried chicken is pinoy style. I would come back every day if I could. The owner was also very nice, she made me sample the dishes so that I would know which ones I would like to order. Everyone is friendly, place reminds me of home and they even have TV showing our local channels. Only thing is to check their opening and closing times as it may vary. This is my go to food place in Miami! read more

This place is amazing. It's a Filipino grocery store with a lunch buffet full of delicious food. I first stopped by on a Sunday; the place was packed. The buffet had lechon, pancit, dinuguan, salmon sinigang, longanisa, tokneneng, something that looked and tasted like creamed spinach, and a couple of other things. I took a little of everything, and it was all great. Sauces and condiments abound on the side. Flan and something that might have been butter mochi but was probably bibingka rounded out the meal; both were delicious. Note that the spread on Tuesday and Wednesday is sparser. The place caters to cruise ship crews, and there're no ships on Tuesday or Wednesday. But today's trip (on a Wednesday) was still worth it. I filled my plates with rice, pancit, lechon, sinigang, bitter melon with eggs, longanisa, and what I think was crispy fried jeprox. (There was also a pork belly sinigang or soup, but I stuck with lechon.) Just flan for dessert. Both visits, everyone was super friendly. This is a family-type place. Show up, smile, eat, and leave happy. The best value I've seen in years (although better Thursday-Monday) and some of the best down-home Filipino food I've had in a long time. read more

My boyfriend and I visited and had the lunch buffet. It is a nice little family owned restaurant. It had a nice variety of the classic dishes I have missed. We tried the lechon, egglant with shrimp paste, adobo, pancit, lumpia, longanisa, fured chicken and the sinagong. They served biko and cassava cake for dessert. Everything was delicious and the staff very friendly and attentive. I also bought some hopia that is very to find here in the states. The price is very affordable for this all you can eat buffet. They also had a nice little grocery area with some asian imported items. We will definitely be back to visit. read more

It was everything I have been dreaming about!!! The food was amazing, I had bagus, Singagang, and lumpia. I'll be coming back !
