We were in town for the weekend so we decided to get some brunch at Enseamada Cafe. I was very…read moreinterested to try Filipino Hawaiian fusion food since I love both cuisines. This place is located in a plaza of other restaurants and businesses. Parking was plentiful outside. There were many tables to choose from inside, and it wasn't busy at all when we arrived. We ended up ordering both Inihaw Plates, one with Beef BBQ Ribs and the other one with Chicken BBQ. The plates came with our meat of choice, mac salad, a little salad, and two scoops of rice. I wasn't expecting much but I was wowed when they brought our food out. Presentation was gorgeous. Our ribs and chicken looked pretty good, saucy and plentiful altogether as an entree. When I had that first bite of the Beef BBQ Rib, I was floored. I'm pretty sure I took one bite and was just speechless, I'm not trying to exaggerate. The beef ribs were flavorful, juicy, tender, and fell right off the bone. I couldn't ask for anything more. The mac salad was good, it didn't taste like the mayo was too heavy for me. It tasted nice and light. And I had a couple bites of the Chicken BBQ, it was just as delicious as the beef ribs. Also the portion size was amazing. I think I'm a little partial, but the Beef BBQ Ribs definitely altered my brain chemistry. They were that delicious and I'll be thinking about these ribs for a long time. It felt like I was back home at a Filipino barbecue or I was in Hawaii eating at an uncle's backyard. It truly felt like the meat was grilling out in the back and we ate it fresh out the grill. It was absolutely wonderful and I'll be raving about this place to people for a while. Y'all deserve all the stars and love. And the music playing? Loved it, they were already on my island music playlist lol. We had an unforgettable experience. This place is a must try if you're in the area and even if you're not in the area as well. It's just that good.

This time i was greeted by a young girl who was super fun & helpful. I should have asked her relation to the owner gentleman. I wanted that chicken coconut curry. Man it was amazing. I ate it for 3 meals. Each one better than the last. I even got some extra curry on my rice. So coconutty & the chicken was delish. The lumpia are fricking yummy. I got 3 extra. Their rice is this consistency that I love & works so well with chopsticks. The owner came out & we chatted, he confirmed the 1 year was coming up. They truly have grown & established themselves.

They had a break between lunch and dinner, but graciously allowed us to dine during the break since we arrived close to their 2 PM lunch closing time.

My wife and I have had this place bookmarked for a while, and we finally made the trek out to try it out. We ordered: The pork belly sisig Kalua pork The highlight was the kalua pork. I'm still vividly thinking about it while I write this review. The pork just melts in your mouth and has such a fantastic flavor to it. The salad was refreshing and acidic, which was delightful, and the mac was really good too. The pork belly sisig was also really solid, though I have to say that the kalua pork stole the show. The nice fatty pieces of pork belly mixed with the rice were sweet and delicious, and I also thoroughly enjoyed this dish. As earlier mentioned, the dishes are a bit pricey, but they gave a lot of food (we both had to take our meals to go at the end - a rarity for me!) +1 to the server who gave our dog some treats along the way! I'm happy to say that we'll be back, especially to check out their happy hour.

We ordered the Shroom Shroom Fried Rice with chicken, Pancit Canton noodles with chicken, Fried Oink Oink Adobo, and a Pandan Old Fashioned. The standout dish was easily the Shroom Shroom Fried Rice--packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. The Pancit Canton noodles were another winner, full of savory flavor and perfectly cooked. The Fried Oink Oink Adobo was tangy, rich, and satisfying, though I was surprised it didn't come with a side of rice. For drinks, the Pandan Old Fashioned was well-made with a subtle pandan flavor that complemented rather than overpowered the cocktail. Service was friendly and efficient, and all of the food arrived fresh and surprisingly quickly. The atmosphere is vibrant and casual, with a comfortable dining room and a few bar seats. We made a reservation, but on a Sunday evening there were plenty of open tables, making for a relaxed dining experience. Overall, Kilig delivered flavorful dishes, great cocktails, and a welcoming atmosphere. A spot I'd definitely return to explore more of the menu.

I did like the Ube burger more, because of the longganisa meat. However when my food came my longganisa was a bit undercooked, so I had to return it to the kitchen, and maybe it took another 20mins or so to get it back but I think that was just their timeline because everyone came in at the same time. The owner was super nice enough to gift my mom a bottle of tanduay. My mom has always been looking for one in WA state but couldn't find, she uses this for cooking and surprisingly the owner just gave her a bottle for free. O_O E

Parking is challenging in the street, two hour parking if you find it. We shopped and parked at the market parking lot across the street, good for one hour. We arrived a little after 5:30pm. It's a counter service family restaurant. It's about the unique food. They even have signs requesting customers clean their table. It wasn't too busy, only a couple other dinners. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. We ordered two Chicken Adobo, one Chicken Tinga and one Tofu Inihaw. The Chicken Adobo is my favorite dish and a main stay, boneless chicken thighs prepared in a mild soy sauce, garlic and pepper marinate. The Chicken Tinga is a special soup that is only available periodically, an adobo seasoned soup, mild yet deep flavor. The Tofu Inihaw is a BBQ prepared fried tofu, sweet and savory flavors. Each plate is served with two scoops of white rice and a side of rice noodle salad. We also ordered a couple of milk tea that were delicious. We paid, were provided our milk teas, gather our silver ware, waters and grabbed a table. Our food was delivered to our table about 10 minutes later. Everything had fresh and deep flavors, mild and not overwhelming. Highly recommended for a unique culinary experience!

Our office gets a list of the weekly offerings on Monday, so when I heard that later in the week there would be Salu-Salo Filipino Kitchen, bringing Filipino food, I most definitely made lunch plans. I was coming in from a meeting in Fremont, so didn't go to the pop-up/Salu-Salo Filipino Kitchen as soon as it started service (around 11am). With that said, I nearly missed out on the chicken adobo! I took the last of the chicken adobo an hour and a half after the lunch service started, so was counting my blessings! I ordered the lunch plate, which came with chicken adobo, pancit, rice and pickled veggies. My lunch plate was solid. Chicken adobo was tender and really, really liked how vinegar-y the flavor was, which, any Filipino would tell you that all food tastes better with vinegar! Pancit wasn't bad, but not the best. Some of the noodles were on the dry side, but I did like the cabbage and green onion throughout. Pickled veggies were a nice addition, adding more sour flavor to the overall entree. For someone who hardly ever has Filipino food and desperately misses mom's cooking, I was just happy to have Salu-Salo bring some adobo to the area. I would definitely recommend checking out Salu-Salo if you ever see their stand around. They don't update their social media channels, unfortunately, so is a little difficult to find where their stand will be. And when I asked if they participate in any markets, they do not. But the owners did mention that they visit downtown Seattle often at other office buildings around. Therefore, I have a feeling I'll be seeing them soon and getting my Filipino cuisine on. (Plus, bonus points for the owner being from the Bicol region of the Philippines, which is where my mom's side is from. Love that!)

Salu-Salo put Fillipino food on the map for me, and thank god for that…read more I do not know why it has taken so long for this cuisine to become popular in the U.S. because frankly, its freaking delicious! Salu-Salo offers a wide variety of dishes with unique flavor profiles. With some of the dishes, I can't compare them to anything I have ever tried before. For example, my favorite dish on the menu is the Laing Express, which is made with coconut milk, taro leaves, topped with a delicious crispy piece of pork belly. With a topping of pork belly, how could anything go wrong? This dish has an amazing earthy flavor, with a bit of a kick to it. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. How often to you get to eat purple desserts? Ube cake gets its color from purple yams! Salu-Salo's ube coconut topped ube cheesecake balls are not just adorable, they are addicting. Not overwhelmingly sweet, and perfect for sharing, these are a treat. For those with dietary restrictions, Salu-Salo is a great option because there are plenty choices. As someone who is gluten free, all of the main dishes are fair game. This is often very rare when dining out for me!! Here's to Salu-Salo for exposing Seattleites to what Filipino food is all about. Rosario's cuisine feels like a healthy take on comfort food. Each dish bursting with flavor, yet still accessible to all ages. The idea behind comfort food is all about the thought that goes into the prep. After tasting Salu-Salo's food, I promise you can tell a lot of care goes into the preparation of each dish. I am looking forward to this becoming a Seattle institution, and hope it inspires more Filipino cuisine to start popping up in the PNW.
