    A long awaited review for Chef Leah's restaurant. I do plan to come back here, but this was based on my visit back in December of 2025. I've also been in their previous location in lower east side years ago so it was such a delight to be able to eat here. I believe we ordered the al pastor tacos, pork belly adobo, chili pan mee, spare ribs, and a dessert that I couldn't remember a name of. Photos are provided and I miss it, haha. I appreciate this restaurant for its fusion without neglecting the flavors familiar to the Filipino cuisine. The service here was great! I am already excited to come back.

    Overall, we had a pleasant evening. The food was great, the ambiance was very casual, and our server was super nice. However, there were a few times during our meal when it felt like we were being hurried. Additionally, the noise level was quite high, making it difficult to hear the conversation within our group. But I highly recommend

    I don't come to this area much, but I had an event to attend around the area so I got a chance to visit Pig & Khao. We ordered: Papaya Salad ($16) - includes shredded green papaya, crispy taro, peanuts, herbs, fish sauce, and line. This was packed with so much savory acidic flavor. Acted as an excellent palate cleanse between dishes. Sinigang Fried Shrimp ($18) - included deep fried shrimp, okra, daikon, long beans, with tamarind aioli. This was my favorite of the dishes. Fried Whole Fish ($42) - fried and tossed in a sweet and sour Thai basil sauce, and crispy garlic. I wish there was more sauce on the fish because it was mainly enough for only the top half.

    Visit June 2026: Filipino and Thai fusion
    Jeff R.

    Visit June 2026: Very popular hip Asian fusion (mostly Filipino and Thai). Reservations are suggested. Loud music and funky decor starting with the wrench used as a door handle to the restrooms with wallpaper made from newspaper comic strips. Service was quick and efficient, very business like. They were busy I get it but still how about a little smile lol. Positive and fun interactions with staff contribute to the enjoyment after all. We arrived and it was still HH so one of their signature drinks, Kentucky Pig, was only $10. Bourbon, ginger, curry leaf , and mint. Crushed ice so kind of like a twist on a mint julep. Unfortunately the HH lumpia were all sold out. Khao soi: Yummy coconut curry based broth. Felt there should have been more chicken or maybe the pieces were just small? Sizzling Sisig: I've had better Sisig. Felt it could have been a little more crisp and some more heat from chilies. Claypot spareribs: Winner! Super tender rib meat and the sauce was went well with the coconut rice. Tangy and spicy. Brussels Sprouts: Standard take surprisingly. Desserts: Ube soft serve is fantastic! Fun place to hang out with friends and family.

    Sizzling Sisig with Garlic Rice
    Vivienne C.

    Came here for brunch and only made a reservation for 2 about an hour beforehand during the weekend and was very grateful to have gotten some seats at the bar. I ordered the Sizzling Sisig with Garlic Rice and it was delicious! First of all the portion sizes were huge and I could only finish half of it. Also, I was a bit worried about the pig ear as it could be a bit flavorless and tough but it actually went extremely well in the dish for the extra bit. I also especially enjoyed the raw egg which when mixed in naturally cooked itself all over the pork. Definitely would come back again to try their other brunch or menu dishes!

    The food here was really good. We got the sizzling sisig and it was delicious with the egg. The special was the spicy crab yellow curry and it was the best meal of the night!! The server rated it a 7:10 spice level and it lingered. It was so good with the rice. The ube ice cream was really good as well. Pork Belly Adobo wasn't too bad, I really enjoyed the egg in the vinegar. There was a wait but we walked in 6:20 pm and was told we had until 7:15 pm if we did want to eat. We did it LOL. If you were to come here, definitely make sure you have a reservation. The ambiance is a very decorate fun place and a nice touch of South East Asian decor.

    Pig and Khao ... Clever Name and an Excellent Dining Experience. Perfect combo! Well worth the trip to the UWS from Brooklyn and certainly worthy of another trip in the near future. Food: 5/5 So delicious. A collision of authentic flavors and exceptionally executed dishes. We tried a good amount and honestly, I'd recommend it all. I'm looking forward to coming back. Perfect for a date night or friend's dinner. Service: 4.5/5 The wait is a bit long for peak hours but that's to be expected. Once you sit down, service is pretty good. They're attentive without being overbearing. Ambiance: 4/5 A perfect blend of chill, casual and eclectic. I loved the vibe.

    Mocktail - Beauregard
    Felicia D.

    Cool, buzzing place with awesome service and wonderful food! Ray at the front was so welcoming and nice. We arrived early for our reservation on a Saturday and he sat us immediately at a table and was nice enough to charge my phone. We had been out all day sightseeing so this was super helpful. We had Jacquedda as our server - another very sweet and helpful person. She made recommendations that really helped us out and we enjoyed everything she suggested. The mocktail she recommended - the Beauregard - was one of the best I've had. As a non-drinker, it's nice to find n/a drinks that are special. We were a party of three and did the family meal. I will say, it was a ton of food, we boxed up what was remaining and gave it to someone at the subway since as out-of-towners, we knew we wouldn't be able to eat it later. So the amount you get is well worth the $ but for the 3-4 portion, better to have 4 people so as to not waste, or just be sure you can take it home or give it to someone. The shrimp, the coconut rice, the crab fried rice and the khao soi (curry noodle dish) were our faves. All of them bursting with various flavors. The whole fish was tasty, had crispy skin, but I'm not one for picking out small bones. The chicken wings were huge - I wish they were Wingdings so we could have more skin and less meat, but some, or maybe most, might appreciate the meatier wing size. This place was great. I highly recommend trying it as a casual, fun place to dine. The music was also a vibe.

    Chili Pan Mee
    Elizabeth S.

    I was such a fan of this place - service is phenomenal, somehow it's not too crowded where you're waiting for a table / need a res but it's still lively, and the food slapped. You can get the $50 family meal (which seems to be a great deal) but we opted to order a la carte. - Chili pan mee: this is a dry noodle and since it said ramen noodle, I was expecting the cheap instant ramen but instead these noodles were much better quality and tasty. This reminded me flavor-wise of many southeast asian / Singaporean noodles and I loved the little fried anchovies. Alternatively, my boyfriend described it as similar to a pasta ragu sauce. - Sizzling sisig: make sure to squeeze all of the lime! this does have pig ear with some cartilage in case you're not into that. However, I would totally recommend. None of the flavors are too strong, meat is well seasoned, and it comes out hot with a raw egg. - The coconut rice: so good that my boyfriend and I wanted more. It comes with the meat plate. I would get this over jasmine.

    The food here is really great! Only negative feedback was the ribs which were steaming on the outside were cold in the middle. The sauce for the ribs was also bland and not exciting. Everything else we tried was really delicious. It's a casual environment with a lot of excitement to take in. It would be fun to sit at the chefs counter and observe. Finally, the coconut tart dessert we had was out of this world. Fun place to have in the neighborhood.

    I bookmarked Pig and Khao on Yelp about a year or so ago because I saw it on GMA I think. I mean, what a clever name! And also, I love noodles, and rarely get a chance to enjoy Filipino food. Now that I finally made it there, im mad it took me so long! Def on my faves list. The vibe is funky: colorful and culture infused decor, old school hip hop in the background, multiracial/ethnic and fun and friendly staff, fast paced but not chaotic energy. We were flattered when our server (one of the twins!) told us that we matched their vibe. I guess our excitement and enthusiasm about the whole experience was clearly evident. We truly felt special from the service we received from the staff. And the food? Oh come on! Bring me more! Don't stop! Every morsel was delectable. I HIGHLY recommend the family meal. For two people we got two small plates, a noodle dish, a choice of jasmine or coconut rice, and a meat/fish entree plus a choice of Ube soft serve or piggy back shots. Great value, plus variety for the greedier palates like ours. Servings are ample, so we boxed up half our meal for home. Can't WAIT to return (and after 8pm since we're told the vibe amps up a notch or two then). Thanks Pig and Khao friends for treating us so swell!

    The original LES location closed, but this one still hits. Great for a casual dinner with friends or a date. Go family-style--trust me, you'll want to try a few things. And the sizzling sisig? Non-negotiable. Best thing on the menu.

The restaurant is medium sized, lots of booths, and was decorated for Valentine's Day. They take reservations and were pretty busy. Service was good, although a little slow at the beginning. I tried the following dishes: Cauliflower Manchurian (3/5): This dish was pretty good, but not amazing. I did enjoy it. Garlic Chili Noodles (3.5/5): Pretty good noodles, not very spicy but good flavor and consistency. Hakka Chili Chicken (4/5): I liked this chicken, but my dining partner did not. The chicken was boneless dark meat, which I really like. You can get it with no, light, or full gravy. We did full and had it with rice. I did enjoy this dish. Overall, I had a pretty good experience at HAKA. No dishes were real standouts, but they were all decent. It is not a bad option for Indo-Chinese in the area.

The menu has both indian and chinese dishes. It's not fusion just two different cuisines being sold. We ordered a roll that came with shrimp tempura, mango and salmon. It was very good, a warm grill that felt like a sandwich. The side galore noodles we ordered were dry and not very flavourful. We ordered shrimp with then and they came with fried/tempura shrimp, which we found odd. There was also egg on the dish but it did nothing for the noodles. We ordered the noodles regular so they should have had some sauce but there was none. The chicken dishes were both really good. The chicken wasn't overly fried or breaded. It tasted fresh and had a good bite to it. I like the spicy garlic chicken a bit more because of the spice. The haka chicken was more of a sweet and salty flavor. Both were tasty. If I'm in the area I'll come back here.

They even played throwback jams and I had liked how this one busser was vibing to the music as he was waiting to assist at a table. It was the food I had problems with. For appetizer I had order the Vegetable Egg roll and it didn't say on the menu that the dip was spicy nor did the waiter, my mouth was burning all through dessert, I had to drink so much water. That sauce tasted like hot sauce and I hate hot sauce!!! The sauce went through my nose and through my mouth, this sauce really messed up my pallet. I had order for the entree Thai Sweet and Spicy Shrimp, I couldn't tell if it was really that spicy because I still had the burning sensation in my mouth from the appetizer still!!! For dessert I had order the banana pudding crumble and it looked like a crumble of mess, it tasted good when you got to the bottom to the pudding. The presentation of this dessert was a hot mess, it looked like a rushed job the chef threw in the two cut banana's and the vanilla wafer cookies and chopped up the cookie and just dumped it in the dish. I did like the dish the dessert came in. My biggest complaint is that sauce never be served and the disappointing banana pudding. I mean how do you mess up banana pudding. I was taken to the second floor and was really shocked it had a top floor, just like I was stunned to learn that I had to go down the stairs to restroom. The restroom was clean. I thought it was funny how the men's room was called Yang and the woman's was called Yin. My biggest problem with the restroom was they have toilet seat covers over the toilet, but it was an empty box and I had used two different stalls before and after my meal. And I said how there was a bathroom attendant in there. For a well known restaurant, I had excepted a better experience from Tao's.

Once you sit down you scan a QR Code to order your food and drinks. I was pretty hungry that day so we ended up ordering a ton of food. The drinks were pretty good and they were served in Le Creuset mugs. Not the biggest deal, but I can appreciate some nice drinkware. The bowl of Kimchi Fried rice came out first. It was a generous portion and the rice was cooked well, but I feel like it could've used some more kimchi. The eggs on top were cooked perfectly and added good texture to the dish. The next dish to come out was the HK French toast. The bread was nice and fluffy which paired well with a nice generous drizzle of condensed milk. I enjoyed this a lot. We also ordered scallion pancake, pork barbecue, and bossam baos. These were ok, I would probably pass on a return visit. I felt like the meat in the baos was a little tough though they did have decent flavor. The last entree was the smoked salmon and avocado croissant; I really enjoyed this. It had a generous helping of smoked salmon and avocado as well. The saltiness of the salmon paired well with the creamy and fatty avocado. The croissant was also nice and flaky. It was also served with a house salad which had a nice drizzle of dressing on it too. For dessert we ordered a Black Sesame Souffle Pancake. This was SO good. A few months ago I visited a place in Princeton that specialized in these Japanese-style pancakes and Tasty Junction's version was so much more enjoyable. I loved that it was served with a healthy scoop of ice cream. The pancake was airy and had a bounce to it. Each bite was so good and made even better with the ice cream. I'd definitely come back just for the pancakes. All in all Tasty Junction is a great spot tucked away in Glen Rock
