    Chicken BBQ
    Bellody C.

    Amazing service and food! I've been here about 2-3 times now and the food is always top notch. Be careful of the lumpia, it comes out extremely hot, fresh, and delicious! I'd give it a few minutes unless you want to burn your tongue. I love the pork sisig ( could be a tiny bit more crunchy). I wonder what the white sauce on top is- i don't think i've seen any other sisig like that. For those who haven't had sisig before, it comes out sizzling with an egg inside and bits of pork + pork skin. I like to mix the egg while it's still cooking. This dish came with jasmine rice. I downed it all with refreshing calamansi juice (tastes kinda like lime). Hospitality is top tier

    This was our first time visiting this place, and I'm really glad we came. The place is clean, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. There is street parking available, and since we went on a Wednesday afternoon, we had no trouble finding a spot. We ordered the chicha pollo, chicken spring rolls, chicken sisig, and tortang talong. I really liked the chicha pollo because it was crispy and not oily or greasy. The chicken sisig was my favorite because it was full of flavor, well-seasoned, not soggy, and had plenty of meat. The tortang talong and spring rolls were also good. I would definitely come back to try more of their food.

    We visited them on the way back home and glad we were able to. Parking can be tricky and may need a bit of luck to get someplace close. We got one 1 block away on a side street. The restaurant is a corner spot. Nice building, a lot of eating seating. The owner greeted us and took us to our seats. Nice and friendly, like an auntie welcoming us to her home. We ordered tortang talong, sisig, lumpia and lechon kawali. Calamansi juice and water. Tortang talog was mostly egg, not much eggplant. Lechon and sisg were also both good. Lumpia, was just ok. Service was great. Plenty of choices if you like home cooking style. We will visit them again. Recommended!

    Pleasant experience! A highly recommended filipino restaurant in Union! Quick and lovely service. Delicious filipino meals! Filipino vibes for interior design. Ample of spacing between tables. High chair seen. Debit/credit card accepted. Roadside parking or parking lots or garage nearby. See images and videos for reference.

    Lumpiang Shanghai Pork
    Anyu L.

    Food was great, definitely heavy and filling. The service was efficient, but not very attentive because we came on a sunday and they were very busy. We were also tucked in the corner because we didn't make a reservation (totally understandable!). The restaurant felt very cozy, and perfect for family lunch/dinners. The lumpia was amazing no complaints. The bagnet express was good, crispy pork belly with coconut milk, very heavy, but tasted great. The pork sisig was alright, not as crispy as other restaurants but flavoring was not bad. Would definitely come back and check out other items on the menu! Keep in mind, portions are big, meant to be shared family style.

    Bangus Sisig
    Christine B.

    Hands down, MY FAV FILIPINO RESTAURANT IN NJ!!! It's so good that I willingly drive 40 minutes to Union City to eat here, even though I live in an area with a lot of Filipino restaurants nearby. What I love most about Qsina 8 is that the food here is really high-quality - the serving sizes are really big, the ingredients are really fresh, there is attention to presentation and aesthetics, and everything is cooked with so much care and love just like how my Filipino grandma would make it. Sadly it's so hard to find these qualities in a Filipino restaurant nowadays- a lot of the Filipino places near me focus too much on quantity at the expense of quality so the food has become so commercial and lacks that homemade, cozy quality that makes Filipino food so good. But thankfully I can get all that I wish for in Filipino food here at Qsina 8!   I've been here a couple of times and tried a lot of things from here and honestly? I have yet to find a dish here that I did not like. But my special mentions will have to be the bangus sisig (THE BEST!), the kare-kare, and the sinigang. And the DESSERT? TO DIE FOR. Honestly, I can never choose between the halo halo, the ube turon, or the sizzling biko that more often than not, I end up ordering them during every meal lol   Lastly one of the things I love most about this place is the hospitality. Every time I eat here I feel transported back to the Philippines where people are so welcoming and always have a smile on their face. The staff here are always so friendly, strike up conversation, and never rush you through your meal no matter how busy they are. That is Filipino hospitality at its finest and it's the reason I will always be loyal to Qsina 8. Maraming salamat Qsina 8--see you again soon

    TapSilog
    Mimi L.

    A little on the pricey side but HUGE portions! The tapsilog was good and all the flavors mixed together well. The garlic rice was excellent and the meat was plentiful. The veggie roll was extra crispy and a good starter. The palabok was something out of my comfort zone but not bad at all! Service was great and the owner was super sweet.

    I visited around 7 PM on a weekday, and the experience was very different from my first visit. Ruby (not Ruth, as I mistakenly thought before) wasn't there this time. On my prior visit, Ruby's service was warm, welcoming, and excellent, it felt like home, and that was the main reason I made the 45-minute drive to come back. This time, service was handled by Cecille (introduced as one of the owners). Unfortunately, the hospitality felt flat. It seemed like the staff, including the male person with glasses who took our order, were unsure and ready to wrap up for the day. The warmth and attentiveness I experienced before just wasn't there. Food-wise, I tried several dishes I hadn't ordered previously: kare-kare, laing, bulalo steak, pares, and lechon kawali. While everything tasted good, nothing stood out compared to similar restaurants in Bergen County. Ultimately, while the food is ok, the service experience wasn't "go-backable" for me, especially for a 45-minute drive. My rating is now 3 stars, based largely on the lack of consistency in service.

    Popped into Qsina 8 for an early breakfast, and they didn't disappoint. They had a wide variety of silogs dishes (refers to a category of Filipino breakfast dishes combining sinangag (garlic fried rice) and itlog (egg) served with a variety of savory, typically fried meat dishes), which we devoured. The meal also came with unlimited coffee and hot chocolate. But what made the experience over the top was speaking to the restaurant's owner Ruby; by the end of the meal, I felt like she was my long lost aunt. She's very passionate about what she does, and it shows through her service. Highly recommend Qsina 8!

    Sinigang Oxtail
    Ingrid C.

    Delicious food and we plan to visit more to sample all their menu items! The staff are so wonderful and friendly and it feels like a family restaurant. Especially when they serve a giant bowl of rice, you know you're in the right spot. - Calamari: 4/5, big rings, a little crispy and chewy - Pork Lumpia: 4/5, small crispy little bites with sweet and sour sauce on the side - Grilled pork: 4.5/5, flavorful perfectly cooked pieces.. only complaint is they didn't give enough of it haha I want more!! - Fried Milkfish: 4.5/5, delicious flaky and crunchy fish paired with delicious sauces, seasoned very well and no bones - Kare-kare oxtail: 5/5, rich and peanutty and the shrimp paste pairs so well with the earthy sweetness of the sauce - highly recommend - Pork Sisig: 4/5, very rich and fatty, good chunks of head meat and regular leaner pieces - Bangus Sisig: 5/5, milkfish tastes soo good cooked this way - not heavy at all and the fish is super buttery and melt in your mouth - Oxtail Sinigang: 5/5, fan favorite sour soup - has all the veggies you need for the day and is a great rice thief - Bulalo: 5/5, another great soup with fall off the bone beef and flavorful veggies- the whole table enjoyed it - Sizzling Biko: 5/5, a GREAT dessert, enough for 2+ people.. it comes with vanilla ice cream, sizzling caramel and chewy warm ube rice cake - Ube Flan Turon: 3/5, not my favorite dessert but pretty shareable and big portions! Thnx for reading :3

    Halo-Halo: Excellent presentation

    This is our first time visiting this place. The servers are awesome. The ladies are very welcoming. The decorations are plain. It does not make you feel like you're in a Filipino restaurant. However, the Filipino music is very soothing. The food is amazing. The laeng is excellent with the fried bangus. And the palabok is just incredible. Excellent presentation. For drinks, we had the kalamasi juice and sago and gulaman. Just right mouth of bitterness and not too sweet The Desert is amazing. The Sizzling Beco is well presented. The taste is amazing. The Halo-Halo is a must try. This is a must try place.

    Wow ! Delicious food. For today my partner and I started with the Pork Egg Rolls ( Lumpia) then we had an order of their delicious Pork Belly & an order of their Seafood Kare-Kare which contains calamari, shrimp,mussel, string beans & eggplant in a delicious savory peanut sauce. The service was great and the ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting. Would come here again for sure !

Vegetarians: Rejoice- no fish sauce/oil used in any curries or dishes aside from Pad Thai. Even that can be prepared without. We had our pickings off the lunch menu - which had a variety of dishes where you pick your protein which included tofu and mock duck. Each item comes with soup or salad and a spring roll. Massaman Curry with tofu, Green curry with mock duck and Basil thai fried rice with no egg. Salads were fresh with a peanut dressing. Spring rolls were hot and crispy with little to no oil. The green curry was spicy the way my wife prefers and the massaman curry was full of tofu, crinkle-cut carrots and potatoes. Large portions, lovely atmosphere and very helpful and polite staff. They have boba teas as well- which I plan on trying next time.

This is a nice quiet spot, nice atmosphere, great service from the waitress. I started off with the chicken dumplings, probably the lowest rating food I had. I'll give it about a three and a half, that's because it was a little too wet. The chicken was solely in the middle, so there's a lot of dumpling, not a lot of chicken, i did enjoy the peanut sauce. Then I had some sambal sauce, vegetables, chicken and white rice on the side. Now that was really, really good. Nice and spicy, a great mix of vegetables, very fresh, very filling, super surprised by that. This establishment honestly deserves to be a lot more crowded than it actually was. It was very empty in there, I was the only table in there. But overall, just great service. In addition to that, I was also able to spin a wheel for spending over 60 bucks and got myself a free drink the next time. Highly recommended, pop out if you're in the area. Great overall. .5
