    This place is located inside a nice little food court a little south of Central Park. We enjoyed a delicious lunch of pork adobo and lumpia. Both items were delicious and I would happily come back again to try other items on their menu.

    Pork adobo and lumpia.
    Leo Y.

    Located inside a South East Asian food court is this non-descript Filipino stall. The selections were the greatest hits, and we went with the lumpia and pork adobo. Service was quick and pleasant, well trained on the lunch rush. There were plenty of tables to enjoy our meal, and restrooms downstairs. The food was tasty. Not the best that I've had, but certainly worth the price. I would come back here, but I might hop around between the different stalls in the food court as there are so many things to try.

    Grilled pork belly

    Enjoyed the grilled pork belly on rice. Service was quick and efficient. They have other good Filipino comfort food in the menu that I will try in the future. Wishlist, I hope they have Ube dessert and pork sisiig in their menu in the future!

    Don't Yawn on Tradisyon... A filipino restaurant specializing in traditional cuisine. Dishes prepared with no trendy fusions, just good ol mom like home cooking. I was craving some kare kare while at work. After a long anticipation of wanting to try this place I called the restaurant to order delivery and the gentleman that answered was very nice and helpful. They do not deliver themselves but are available on several delivery apps. My order was very well packaged and tamper proof. I appreciate that they sent the rice in a separate container. The kare kare had everything my Mom would serve. The peanut sauce could have used a little more peanut flavor for my taste but I am the guy who does 4 to 1 ratio for pb & j. Veggies were fresh, crisp and plentiful. The rice portion could have used a few more spoonfuls because I ran short and didn't have enough rice to sop up all the sauce. I will definitely return to Tradisyon to try every single item on their menu! Mahal Kita, Tradisyon.

    Chicken inasal
    Hui L.

    Came here with some friends on a weekend afternoon for lunch. It wasn't crowded at all which was good for us. We got the pork adobo, pork tocino (weekend brunch only item), chicken inasal and karekare. We planned to share the dishes instead of having each each dish separately with rice and the staff were very accommodating about it and put all the rice into two separate bowls and plates. The garlic rice is a must order just the regular white rice! My favorite dishes were the pork adobo which reminded me of the Taiwanese luroufan's braised pork. The chicken inasal had a nice smokey flavor to it. The karekare short ribs were very tender and the sauce was a bit too sweet to my liking but that's just because I usually prefer my dishes to be more on the savory side. The pork tocino was just alright, it was stir fried pork over rice with a runny egg. This is a great place to get Filipino food in the city without breaking the bank. FYI, this is a small spot so there's no bathroom inside the restaurant.

    Eggplant ....

    Kare Kare .... Delivered .... Eggplant ... Sitaw & BokChoy ... wasn't cooked w/ the KareKare, just steamed=*{ Pd extra for Garlic Fried Rice ... but ... This is supposed to be Garlic Rice ... it's just steamed rice=*{ And Shrimp Paste ... UberEats delivered & it was fast & Tradisyon stapled the top of the bag to ensure no tampering. But ... used UberEats & the lid for the entree did not fit securely=*{ I appreciated that! Will update after I eat, LoL!!!

    Pork Adobo
    Christina Z.

    Super quick turnover. The only difference between lunch special and regular is $2 ($15 vs $17) so I opted for normal size. Pork Adobo: decent, tasted more like Chinese 红烧肉 rather than Filipino dish, which was a bit disappointing (aka I can make this exact dish at home). It's very salty but otherwise fine. Definitely a lot of rice vs meat.

    Crispy Pata (so good!)
    April Y.

    Everyone that flocks to Urban Hawker for the Hainan Chicken Rice is missing out. It's easy to miss but the Crispy Patas (fried pork knuckles) could be the best roast/fried pork that this ABC girl has ever had. Beats any Chinese Roast Pork / Le hon I have ever had. Pictures do not give the Crispy Patas any justice. The entire dish was crispy and the meat underneath was fall-off-the-bone tender. It's so easy to miss when you glance at all the menus in the food court. But I assure you that you don't want to miss it. It's fried to order so there's a bit of a wait involved but totally worth every minute. I recommend dining there for this dish so you don't risk even the teeniest bit of sogginess. We also had the Rambutan Pineapple Salad which was a refreshing balance to the massive amount of meat. :-)

    Great service and attention to detail. Awesome spot tucked away in a little public market. I got the chicken bbq and loved it. My fiancé got the pork belly and it was solid for her as well. Wishing this place all the best.

    Pork adobo

    Great SE Asian food vlcouet location. Near times square. The food was fantastic and quick. We got the prok adobo, grilled pork belly and tinapa mackerel.

    Pork adobo
    Sofyan S.

    Food (4/5): I got the Pork Adobo and had some friends that shared the Crispy Pata (Fried Pork Knuckle). The pork adobo was flavorful and delicious with tender cuts of pork and a great ration of meat to rice. The Pork Knuckle was massive and a bit hard to eat but the parts I ate were pretty good. The only issue was that there were chewy parts of the meat that weren't so good. Service (4/5): I was surprised how fast the Pork Adobo came out. I hadn't even finished paying and they already gave me the dish with the utensils. I was a bit worried that perhaps it wasn't fresh and had been sitting out for a while, but the dish was still fresh and delicious. Ambiance & Venue (5/5): This is part of the Urban Hawker food court. It feels like a busy food court and was quite difficult to find seating. However, the overall vibe and energy of the food court is amazing. You have so many options. We ended up getting seats in front of Tradisyon.

    Chicken lumpia
    Nikki C.

    This location is in the food hall so go inside the dark building. I ordered the 10 piece chicken lumpia and I was nice and crispy. As a Filipino I thumbs up this! However, I do wish they had more variety of meat on their menu, as I do not eat pork. At the other location I believe I remember they had beef sinigang, so I expected this one to have it. Maybe they will add more to the menu, as this place is recent and new. Cant wait!

    pork adobo
    Merilou B.

    Tried tradisyon at the urban hawker location! The restaurant always seems to be packed when I try to visit and was craving some filipino food quick. This was actually my first time have pork belly sliced adobo and it was yummy! They got the sauce, crunch, and egg perfectly! Tons of seating at the urban hawker food court.

    It says on the site that the place is open until 8:30PM. Got here at 7:29PM & they said sorry, they're closed. So what's the real time then?

    Staff was nice and food portion was generous but pork belly adobo was kind of tough and salty. No sweetness or sourness. Just salty.

    Various Filipino friends have spoken highly of this place and I'm happy to be one more to add my…read morepraise. My boyfriend and I came for brunch and we got the salted egg yolk pancake and kare kare omelette. Both were delicious, although I do have to note that the pancake as another review noted doesn't actually have a salted egg yolk flavor that I could taste, but a more lemony/citrusy one. I love salted egg yolk so normally I would be disappointed, but the pancake was still really yummy. The staff who took care of us was so nice and it is a cute space for a date. Also I saw they had fun nonalcoholic summer drinks. I had their mais con yelo matcha because I love corn and matcha, although I was skeptical if the two flavors would gel. The staff reassured me it was yummy and they were so right, it was soooo good. It also actually tasted like mais con yelo.

We ended up having a lot of leftovers and my cousin (generous host) said he'd take them home and possibly doctor them up a bit. Tells you a lot...we didn't finish the food (and portions were small) and he would have to fix it to taste better! We started with the fried chicken appetizer. Tasty but nothing to write home about, and definitely not worth $19. The pancit kabute ($27) was small, and very plain. No lasa. Kare kare for $36! The weekly family dish ($65) was pork chops. Very salty. Save your money, and time, and appetite for somewhere else.

Environment: super cool, it feels very artsy and the music makes this place feel almost clubby but in a chill way? 3. Service: the staff is always helpful. They ask if you've been there every time. they make great suggestions and they are very quick and efficient. Definitely give this place a try! It's on the pricier end of things but it's worth it.
