First time trying out their food (take out only). Yes, it's location isn't the greatest and a little pricey. Loved the crispy pata and lumpia. read more

Excellent Filipino food, wish they were closer to us. Everything we've ordered has been great, especially the sinigang, kare Kare, adobo and halo halo. read more

The last time I will eat here.. the food is expensive and is mediocre.. everyone told me this place is not the greatest but I didn't believe them and I wanted to try it out in hoping to prove them wrong.. that didn't work out at all I ended up proving them right.. I do not recommend this place.. I don't understand how they have 5 stars.. or even 2. It's not busy at all.. again I Highly recommend not to eat here. read more

The food is up to par with any "auntie" kitchen. The food really taste home made. And when I say home made, it's really home made. Just like home, there's always left over food in the fridge, and that's unfortunately what some of the dishes was had taste like. I ordered the Pinakbet, and it was soggy. The vegetable were too soft and you can tell that it was already pre-made and heated in the microwave. Like I said, it tasted home made, like I was eating last nights dinner in my own home. Can't get any more authentic then that. We also ordered the Bi-steak (beef steak) and the meat was way too tough. This dish as well, you can tell they had it pre-made because the meat is normally tender when made fresh, but it was way too hard and tasted over cooked. Maybe we got this dish on a bad day, but I really don't recommend this dish. The pancit canton was the last dish we ordered and I can honestly say that this saved them. It was tasty and very flavorful. It had the right amount of meat and veggies to compensate the noodles. We enjoyed every last bite. Overall, the owners and servers were very nice and hospitable. They were all very sweet and made sure we were well taken care of. I hope to come back and have different opinions on the other dishes. read more

The Food here is so delicious and authentic Filipino. Wow, finally great Filipino food and their fried chicken is the best world over. Family recipe. I do not eat fried chicken anywhere else.!!! You got to try this place. Everyone had trouble during pandemic, but this is best. I drive 35 mins from vancouver just to have good Filipino food. We always order to go as well as what we eat on site. Please try this place, don't miss out! I go here twice a week. They cater for many city events. read more

I know there's not really a big Filipino population in Portland and this is one of the few places people go to (even people in Seattle!). It has pretty decent serving portions so if you want to try more than one dish, do it! I liked everything my friends and I tried. Four of us shared four dishes and it had us full while my other three friends tried to share four and they had to push themselves to finish. Cute Filipino restaurant with friendly owners (it's been in the family). Not a place for vegetarians really, but a good place to try Filipino food if you haven't ever had any and a good place just to get your Filipino food fix. Good food and good company, which is why I rate this a 5/5. read more

Tambayan - (Left to clockwise) Menudo, Laing, Sinigang, and Lechon Kawali. Already got a head start on eating some in this pic - Filipino Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Really good cooking! JP and I came here Saturday evening with our Filipina friend. She was acquainted with the owner, who came out to greet us. Apparently, Tambayan caters too, and the owner mentioned it had been a busy day. For just one order, they had to make 2000 shanghai rolls! I loved the Pancit Malabon. I could have eaten the whole order! It was made with excellent hearty rice noodles, diced eggs (with the yolk separated from the white), sliced fresh green onion, little pieces of bay shrimp and tiny bits of what was either squid or octopus. On top of this dish was crumbled crispy pata. The pancit had a delightful smoky flavor that was especially pronounced on first bite. Another really good dish was the thinly-sliced Bistek Tagalog, which tastes just like teriyaki beef jerky! It came served in broth with a couple strands of sauteed onion. We also ordered the Lechon Kawali, which is fried pork belly and the same thing as Mexican chicharron. Because it is so fatty by nature, you cannot eat too much of it. It came with a nice gravy-like dipping sauce. The (lumpia) Shanghai Rolls were satisfactory. Crispy, they were filled with ground pork and carrot and served with a chili dipping sauce. Also satisfactory was the Chicken Chop Suey - made with chicken, steamed broccoli, bok choy, carrot, celery and a broth that sloshed over from a too small serving plate. For a side, we ordered the garlic fried rice, which came with little bits of toasted coconut. The rest of the table loved the rice, but I found the garlic a bit overwhelming. For dessert, we had the Halo Halo Special, a layered treat served in a glass. At the bottom were little red & green bits of a boba/gelatin. Above that was shaved ice blended with evaporated milk and on top of that was a scoop of purple yam ice cream and a little wedge of flan. Boy, I'd sure like to know where they purchased the smooth creamy purple yam ice cream. I can already tell you that onsite research later in the evening indicated that it is not available at Uwajamaya. Fubonn maybe? Exceptionally nice tasting ice tea with a pleasing milky hearty appearance. Now, a word or two about the service. It was fairly quick, but there were a couple of issues. The major issue was that when our server brought out our dishes, none of the dishes had serving spoons or forks! Our young waiter seemed surprised when we requested serving utensils, but brought some out to us anyway. The other thing is that we were never offered beverage refills. read more

It was ok. Had lumpia Shanghai. Had a funny after taste. Crunchy and good otherwise. Pancit canton. Not bad. Very little chicken or veggies. Lotta big fat noodles. Bathroom was very clean. read more

OoOo Filipino food! When my friend and I go on trips, we like to check out the local Filipino cuisines. Thanks to yelp we tried out this place. They offer a wide variety of options from silogs to sinigang to lumpias to Filipino desserts. What I like about this place is that they cook to order. It isn't food that has been sitting out all day. It's also awesome how they have your Asian flavoring in handy such as fish sauce. I would rate this place 3.5 mainly because of service. It was empty when we dined here. They were friendly and attentive on how we were doing in the beginning. Towards the end, we felt like they had forgotten about us. Besides that, it was a great experience. If you are looking for Filipino food, they have great options. Definitely worth a try! read more

Tambayan - Filipino Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Tambayan is like visiting an aunt's home. The people make you feel welcome and inviting. The decor is nonexistent, but you're not there for that. We had the chicken adobo and the lechon kawali. Lumpia to start. Everything was excellent! I've come to realize that nothing is ever going to be the way your grandmother or mother made it. Just take things for what they are. Enjoy the place for what it is. There are so many variations in cooking filipino food. There are many other options at Tambayan that aren't fried. Like any other cuisine, if you're not willing to try then you're missing out! read more

Delicious, affordable, and generous portion sizes of lumpia shanghai, fresh vegetable lumpia, and kare kare with rice. The owner named Cindy was warm, welcoming, and friendly. We appreciated her for her amazing hospitality and excellent Filipino restaurant. Cute and cozy inside with beautiful decorations. A wonderful place to gather at and share meals with friends and loved ones. We highly recommend this place and will definitely return again. read more

Tambayan - Veggie lumpia, shanghai lumpia, and beef kare kare - Filipino Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Blew. My. Mind! And that coming from a white guy who's never ventured to SE Asia. Milk Fish and Bistek Tagalog were both on our table. The fish, nestled against garlic rice with an egg on top, was full of flavor and while boney, the bones were soft enough to eat without concern. The Bistek (traditional beef steak in soy sauce with soft fried onions) was salty delicious. But the Kare-Kare stole the show: basically a simmered peanut butter soup with large chunks of fantastically tender beef, eggplant, green beans and a bok choy-like vegetable. Huge portion! The concoction is spooned onto rice - like Japanese curry - and becomes a comfort food at first bite. It's accompanied by a small dish of salty shrimp paste that the proprietor very helpfully advised was an authentic, acquired taste. If you forego the selection of Filipino beer, the Gulaman & Sago is worth a try. Like bubble tea but sweeter - almost syrupy - with smaller tapioca "bubbles" as well as gelatin cubes. It may not be in a trendy area, but Tambayan isn't far and parking is easy. It's very local and very mom-and-pop with wonderfully kind service, resulting in a comforting ambiance. To top it off, this was a Groupon success story: I went, I saved and I will certainly return. The prices are VERY reasonable. read more

Tambayan - Kare-kare w/ garlic rice - Filipino Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I have been craving some good Filipino food that tastes similar to what I normally eat back in Hawaii and I have the hardest time finding it. Ordered Lechon Kawali and Pancit and to my disappointment, it didn't taste nor look anything like how it is back at home :( Then again, everyone has a different way of preparing food. The staff was super friendly but I think the AC was in shut down mode because it was pretty muggy inside. I went on a Sunday so the parking lot to the left was available but normally I don't think that's for the restaurant. If I were to go back, I would definitely try something else. If someone knows of somewhere that makes Lechon Kawali (fried pork belly w/ tomatoes and onions), please hit me up and shoot me a location. Other than that, I'll probably try and make my own. Just another FYI... this is [my own opinion]. Everyone has a different taste/feel on things so to find out for yourself, try it. When you do, remember to Post it! Good luck! read more

Ohhhh my god! You want amazing authentic food this is the place! The family who owns the restaurant are so sweet and very accommodating ! We had the lumpia, ox tail stew, and rice noodles with shrimp and pork. I couldn't take a picture fast enough before my boyfriend dived in! I can't say enough about how amazing the food was! The meat fell right off the bone of the ox tail and the veggies were perfect with the peanut broth! To make things better a DELICIOUS flan! The lumpia was perfectly fried fresh and amazing! I definitely recommend anyone come and eat this tasty food! We paid 37$ for an appetizer two meals with leftovers 2 cokes and dessert! read more

If they weren't on the other side of town, I'd be more of a regular. I think the dishes where ok, more good than bad. The price was a little on the high side, but that can be overlooked by the lack of other Filipino restaurants anywhere in Portland. I would definitely come back to fix my Filipino craving! read more

As an honorary Filipino (through relationship) I was really curious to try it out and the groupon was the extra push. First off, extra points for good iced tea. I don't know why it is so hard to get fresh brewed iced tea anymore. The tea was good and refill came quickly. It was a muggy day and I liked that. The food was excellent. I had the menudo and it was almost as good as my aunts. I had it with the garlic rice. Good choice. Next time I go back I want to try the Kare kare. They have all my family favorites on the menu. I like supporting mom and pop places like this. The service was also very friendly. It wil be my go-to place when not dining with the family. Check it out! read more

Not only were they super friendly, helpful, and welcoming, but their food was incredible! I absolutely recommend coming here and supporting this family owned business. I myself am Filipino and I am super impressed with their food! Thanks again for making me feel like I was eating a home cooked meal! read more

The owners were so kind and provided us with excellent service. The food was so good! We ordered so many different dishes and it didn't disappoint! It was the perfect lunch to wrap up our trip to Portland. read more

My boyfriend and I were traveling away from home in Hawaii. And knowing the mainland, they don't provide rice for their starch. So we were madly craving for Filipino food and we found this gem. It helped and felt like home because the owner was also Filipino! I feel like Filipinos have that connection to each other ;) Anyway, they do not have parking stalls but they do have street parking. We got there around 1130 when it just opened so parking was plentiful! I ordered the bangus (fried fish) served with tomatoes, shrimp paste, grilled eggplant, and rice (hallelujah rice!) and my boyfriend got the lechon kawili. Taste was there. But I wish the portion was a little bigger just like home. ONLY reason why it's 4 star review. But service was sky rocket way above average! She's super sweet and we basically talked to her as if she was our Aunty (in Hawaii, everybody your auntehhh, unkoooo, or cuzzzzzin) lol Def try here when your around this area! read more

Don't let anyone who isn't Filipino or hasn't grown up around Filipinos and their food convince you that this place is bad. Lol. *referring to the reviews* The looks of the place makes you feel like you're at Lola's house. And the food is just as bomb as Lola's. And who doesn't love going to Lola's and going in on her food. Lumpia, good. Sinigang, good. Dinuguan, good. Halohalo, good. I'm not originally from the PNW and there's almost no Filipinos in Portland. we go here to feel at home and eat some bomb food and if never disappoints. read more

I've been in Vancouver for 4 years and just recently looked for Filipino restaurant around the area and found this joint in Portland and I'm so happy I get to try it and I've been here 3 times within 2 months I enjoyed all the food we ordered and it feels like home! I'm sure I'll try everything in the menu eventually and I can't wait to bring more friends so they can try our Filipino food plus desserts! The service is great really friendly and always have that smile on their face. I wish appetizers comes first not all at once, and hopefully they add more options in the menu! read more

This place is amazing... Although I ordered my food to go. The vibes are very homely and chill... I ordered the Chicken Adobo w/ Garlic Rice and I hadn't had any true authentic Filipino Food in nearly 15 years I was well overdue. When I got home and took the first few bites it was an instant flashback to when I lived just a block away from Chinatown in Las Vegas, Nevada where I was born and used to go to the Filipino spot and get Adobo at least twice a week. I highly recommend trying this place out as it is the only spot in Portland to get Filipino Food. It's outstanding!! read more

Tambayan - a table full of food and drinks - Filipino Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We came here a while ago, but my reviews are on Filipino time these days... This place is definitely in the boondocks, so don't let the outside deter you. The ambiance inside reminded me of some of the good spots in the bay area, Cali. Not the fancy Americanized joints. The small, mom 'n pop type places - where you know the food will be good. The aunties that greeted us were totally welcoming and made me feel comfy and at home. She even offered laying our sleeping son down on the couch near our table. And no one gave us dirty looks when our rambuncious daughter walked around like she owned the place, pointing and asking what everything was. On to the food... Binagoognan (I think that's how you spell it) - pretty good, though I was expecting a little more crunch and more bagoong. Probably better for me that it wasn't too salty. Ok, not "probably".... Kalereta beef - this was tasty. Just enough beef and veggies and not spicy, though I'm biased cause I don't like spice. Pancit Palabok - this wasn't too bad either, though a little saucy. The kids loved it. What cost them a star was the pork dishes were super duper fatty. I mean, they were yummo, but I swear I felt my arteries clog just a little later that day. I did eat some of it, but I swear I would have licked my plate clean if there was more meat than fat. I'd say the meat to fat ratio was about 30/70. I can do 50/50, but my butt / hips / arm flaps say "no" to more than that. We will definitely come back for that FIlipino fix - no doubt about that. But we'll probably try more beef or chicken dishes. read more

I haven't been here awhile. Ownership has changed but the food is still awesome. They have kept the same menu and the price of the food is now in comparison with the rest of the economy considering that these are home cooked food. Kudos and more power to you. Mabuhay!! read more

I had been here once before and ordered the pork adobo, a safe bet after being discouraged to try the Binagoongan na Baboy, which the waitress said is too much for people not accustomed to shrimp paste. This time, I went with two people who frequent Tambayan about once a week. We ordered the Bopis, pork entrails with red and green peppers simmered in soy sauce and vinegar; Pancit Malabon, rice noodles in sauce with chicharon, topped with assorted seafood, pork, sliced eggs, green onion, and fried garlic; and the Sinigang na Baka, tamarind-flavored soup with beef and vegetables. All were excellent, as was the garlic rice that accompanied the dishes. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Our server was extremely friendly. The dishes were varied in quality but the meat in the three dishes that had meat were significantly tough and stringy. The chicken adobo was a battle to consume. Chicken at it's worst can be a little tough, but this chicken was tougher than wang leather and in pieces big enough that a sharp knife would be required to work through the cluck . No knife was provided. Other dishes were over-salted. The spring rolls were excellent. If I go back it'll be just the spring rolls. May I sneak in a beer? read more

I don't know why Filipino restaurants haven't caught on. More people need to know about Filipino food so that there is a market base of Filipino food. This is a humble restaurant. The food, however, is authentic Filipino food. We had the Dinuguan, Mongo, Sinigang na Hipon, and Halo halo. I was sad there wasn't any Sisig, maybe next time. The tastes weren't overpowering... maybe a bit mild... but the Halo halo was so excellent! read more

Tambayan is the place to go! IF YOU WANT REHEATED LEFT OVERS... Went here for Dinner craving some Filipino comfort food I grew up with. So we started with some Shanghai Lumpai... They were so over fried that the ends were black and you could taste how bitter and burnt they were. We ordered the Pork Adobo, Tinola Manok, and a side of Rice... At a restaurant you should NEVER hear a Microwave be used constantly... But that's all the cooking we heard. You could tell the Pork Adobo wasn't fresh, it had a layer of grease on top, and we have 3 pieces that were still FROZEN. The Tinola was at least fully cooked except it lacked flavor and what flavor you did get was the extreme bitterness from the overly huge chunks of Green Papaya, and a weird soapy residue flavor in the soup. Keep in mind the main flavor of this soup is a chicken broth and ginger base... I barely tasted any ginger in the entire bowl. You would think it would be hard to mess up rice, but again this was reheated microwaved rice that was hard and clumpy... So again its good if your looking to eat reheated left overs come here. Honestly we left this place just full of disappointment. Shouldn't have been surprised however, each time we have come we're the only people there, the restaurant is usually empty/dead.... read more

Loved their pancit bihon! Sat and talked with the owner for about 15 minutes while waiting for food!

We went to Tambayan for the second time. And in the interest of full disclosure, my wife is Filipino although she has no relationship with this business. So why disclose? Because I'm incorporating her feedback as well, and she's a pretty harsh critic when it comes to her home cuisine. In short, this is genuine "Fipino home cooking" like from your mom's house (her words). This place has impressed. One review mentioned it was meat centric, and that it is--in that sense it's very representative of what it should be. Our favorites? If you like noodles, a great choice here is the pancit bihon, a gently stir- fried rice noodle dish with veggies (mainly cabbage and celery) and chicken. It's mild, and a great but light starch dish for those who may want an alternative to the more ubiquitous rice. Wheat noodle variations are available as well. For straight up meat, adobo is what usually comes to mind in this cuisine. Oddly enough we've never tried it here since my wife's family version is radically different, and we prefer to try other things when we're here. Sorry! For appetizers, there are the usual selection of fresh and fried rolls, among other things.Their Shangai (fried) rolls are tasty. Crunchy, not too oily. We also had the sariwa, about the only thing we've tried there that we were not huge fans of. A classic dish is the crispy pata, a decadent deep fried pork shank. Healthy option? Probably not. But sinfully good? You bet. The dipping sauce adds the right amount of seasoning and acid, the meat is tender and the skin perfectly crunchy. The oxtail kare-kare is an interesting take on stewed oxtails, with a peanut based sauce and veggies--one of the only ways I enjoy eggplant. Beef kare-kare is similar only with chunks of beef rather than the oxtails. Nilagang baboy is a tasty pork and veggie soup. Perfect for a chilly day! If you're into adventure, look no further than the dinuguuan, a pork blood stew. This version is mild, and lacks the crushing metallic richness that some other versions have. It has chunks of pork in a thicker style sauce, and it's slight pepperiness adds just the right amount of tang to the dish. And last but not least, desserts here reflect more Filipino classics. The leche flan and halo-halo (think a very revved up version of Hawaiian shave ice, with more flavor and richness without being crazy) are spot on. Nothing better than halo-halo on a hot day! Downsides? The service is not blitzkrieg fast. Super friendly, yes, speedy, no. This is a family place, so don't think you'll be in and out in 20 minutes. All in all, if you don't like this place, it means you aren't a fan of this cuisine. There it is. But if you want a break from the Asian mainstays (Chinese, Thai, Vieynamese, etc) done authentically, give this place a shot. read more

This is the best Filipino restaurant in Portland that we've tried so far. My personal favorite are their Lechon Kawali, Kare Kare Beef, Pancit Canton. I've yet to try other dish from the menu. I've had their Sago Gulaman drink which was ok, and their dinuguan is good too, but the strong ginger taste is not for me. My husband liked it though. We'll be regulars in this restaurant since we just moved in the area. read more

Second time I ordered Bopis and it was so much better. This is my favorite dish and I'm glad they did it right.

You know it's hard to judge food the way your mom makes it (or your auntie or uncle makes it) because that't what you expect it to be or what it "should" be. People don't execute the dish as one would want it to be...... BUT, there are always exceptions to the rule! AND Tambayan takes the cake for that! After living in Portland for 4 years, I have FINALLY found a legit Filipino restaurant that actually delivers and brings me back home to my Carson, CA roots. Being raised eating Filipino dishes and especially at fam bam parties, Tambayan definitely delivers on flavor! Devour? *CRISPY PATA (Fried Pork Leg) The crispy pata was definitely fried to perfection. The meat was easy to manipulate. Let alone, it was tender and moist. It came with a soy-sauce/lemon/vinegar dipping sauce, which is typically paired for crispy pata. I would definitely order this again! *SINIGANG NA BABOY (Pork Sour "Tamarind" Soup) The pork was cooked quite well. I was a bit nervous that it would've been over-done in the broth. But no it wasn't! Sinigang was my mother's signature dish and Tambayan's was almost close to hers. My mom typically makes a beef version, but my boyfriend's grandma makes the pork version. I would say that Tambayan's reminded me of my boyfriend's grandma's version. Your typical veggies in the sinigang were there (i.e. string beans and spinach/leafy greens). Definitely worth ordering this dish again! *DINUGUAN ("Pork Blood Stew" made with Pork ear, meat and intestine). So when I was a year old, my grandma ("Nanay Nitang") cooked this specialty and while she babysat me, fed me this delicacy. I grew up learning that dinuguan was a savory "Chocolate Stew"................. **several years pass by** It was not until I was 9 years old, my uncle sat me down and told me the real deal - it's not chocolate! (*gasps*). As a 3rd grader, I found out it was made out of pork blood and intestine and swore off the dish during my early teenage years. After that phase, I have no idea what happened, but reluctantly I craved the dish and have been eating it ever since. Dinuguan, according to my fam bam, is dubbed as "Kristen's Dish" (maybe because I'm the "Chocoholic"??!) Nonetheless, I'm glad that Tambayan can make a batch that's almost as close to my Nanay's (*smiles*) *KARE KARE + OX TAIL (Peanut Butter Stew) is one of my guilty pleasures. Usually my family doesn't really cook this dish unless it's a holiday. But my boyfriend's family cooks it quite frequently. What I love about the dish is the broth. The peanut butter broth. Cooked with bok choy, beef and green beans. I love to slather the peanut butter sauce all over my rice! Paired with some bagaoong (salty shrimp paste), it can level out the peanut flavor. But I usually avoid the bagaoong since it's too salty for my taste! Another must order in my book! ALL of these dishes are best eaten with plain ol' white RICE! I swear I eat more rice when I have any Filipino dishes! The employees were very cordial, kind and helpful. Parking is on the street and they accept CC's. This mom-and-pop-shop definitely knows what they're doing! I loved the fact that the restaurant was open later than their closing hours and didn't rush us out while we were eating. I came in with my grubbers about 45 minutes before closing time and they were able to accommodate us. My next visit here will taste the rest of their dishes on their menu AND to get more of that DINUGUAN =) read more

Tambayan serves authentic home-cooked Filipino food. Pinoys and those who've ever been to a Filipino party know what I'm talking about, but everyone else should check it out too. With a Filipina mother and like a million aunties, I can vouch for the true flavors on Tambayan's menu. Filipino restaurants are few and far between, but the great thing about them is that you get to eat exactly what the cooks make for their own families and friends all the time. You can't say that about many other kinds of restaurants, but you can about Tambayan. If you've never had Filipino food before, give it a try. Since opinions are like iPods, I will refrain from recommending any one dish or even going into detail about the cuisine (besides, I covered that in my review of Tita's Pista). It's simple, homey, Malay / Chinese / Spanish / Indian influenced food cooked by tasting not by measuring. They have meat. They have vegetables. They have traditional sauces and condiments. Desserts are sweet. You may get more rice than you can eat. You'll experience new flavors. Just go try it. It's a small shop with maybe 7 or 8 plain tables, a small grocery section, and some popular bagged munchies. Very informal, kind of cafeteria style but without the hot food line. Don't get just one dish. Order several things and eat family style. Prices are very affordable. A bargain for a true culinary adventure. Would be five stars but they don't have itlog na maalat :( read more

What's weird to me is this place or filipino food in general isn't on every pork belly lovin fool radar in pdx? What's my new favorite discovery in pan asian cuisine? Fillipino food.

But you won't believe all the treasures you missed out on.treasure #1tokwa't baboy. Crispy tofu and pork belly with some garlicy soy. Blew me I'm done. So fantastic! Nothing like it will come close and you can chow on that bad boy with some beer and football and be one happy camper. Treasure #2 lechon kiwali deep fried pork belly. Simple fantastic decadent.
