Had an amazing experience at Kulinarya with their Kamayan feast! The staff were friendly and accommodating. When we pre-ordered from the menu selections we were able to choose a dishes from various categories including pork, beef, chicken, vegetables, and seafood. My favourite dish was the Pinakbet. The feast itself definitely fed more than our group could eat. Many leftover were taken home. The restaurant isn't too big, so it is best to make a reservation. The night I went it was fully booked with three big groups. The halo halo was a refreshing and fun way to end the meal.
Amazing spot for authentic Filipino food! The service was great with the staff and owner making sure your dining experience was as good as the hot made to order meals! Their lunch special was so good! We had the lunch menu pork belly kare kare! Generous portion size for what you pay and it was a total hit! Ambience was still work in progress but don't let that scare you. Best Filipino food in town! Thank you Tita!
MASARAP!!! Kulinarya is an extraordinary neighborhood restaurant in the Grandview-Woodland area which blends into Little Italy. The restaurant while small, packs a punch on all levels. Ambiance-Not fancy but clean and decorated well with plants, pictures, and house items giving off a "welcome to my kitchen" vibe. Food-We talked with the owner and her recipes come from the best source of course, her mom. =) Over the years a few tweaks but not enough to take away from the traditional Filipino flavors. Portions are huge. We got: Kate-Kare which is beef, tripe, and vegetables in a rich peanut butter sauce. This was really good but a little daring for us to order because my wife really love's her own mom's version and mom beats restaurant 99.9% of the time lol. She liked it but just in case, mom-in-law if you're reading this yours still rules. The owner suggested the Crispy Binagoongan which is crispy pork, eggplant, green beans , in shrimp paste sauce. I was genuinely surprised because I was worried the strong smell of the bagoóng shrimp paste would overwhelm but it didn't. It ended up being my favorite dish. Tofu Sisig: we love pork Sisig but with beef and pork already picked, another meat dish seemed too much. It was solid but lol, I would have liked the pork still. Drinks also had a Filipino twist. How about an Ube-colada? Dessert and booze at the same time! My wife ordered a virgin mango mojito which she loved even without a buzz. Service-I really enjoy when I see a place that has "regular" clientele. It means they have developed a loyal friendly relationship. While I didn't hear "NORM!" being yelled, I did see the owner excitedly greet customers by name. It's not just Filipinos either. The restaurant was packed with multiple ethnic groups when we visited. I think the fantastic combination of excellent food and a caring "Are you bisog (full)?" mentality keeps them coming back. A must try when you are in the area!
Kulinarya is a gem in the suburbs of Vancouver! As a Filipino, I know good Filipino food. Kulinarya has very delicious sinigang, and a vegan option tofu sisig that satisfies! The grilled pusit is the best I've ever had as it was cooked just right making the bite perfect and not chewy. Their choice of decors, detailed table settings and furniture creates a perfect ambience for dining. We walked in on a very busy Saturday evening without reservations. Carlee made a way for us to be accommodated promptly...she told us it may be one hour wait and we were willing to wait that long but it turned out to be a 20 minute wait. Carlee served our table and her service is impeccable. I would dine and recommend Kulinarya as often as I could but I'm just visiting Canada. Our experience at Kulinarya makes our vacation memories of British Columbia unforgettable! 5 stars! Cheers!
Vegan filipino options! While I usually stick to full vegan or vegetarian restaurants when traveling, my partner and I couldn't resist dining at Kulinarya when we saw they had clearly labeled vegan options. Sadly, it is such a rarity to find these foods made vegan. When we arrived around 6/6:30pm, we walked inside and saw the place was completely packed! It's a modestly sized spot but we weren't expecting a full house. Fortunately, there were a couple spots outside and they were perfect for a nice summer's day. Due to the busyness, I assume, it was a little slow in getting our order taken but once that was done the food came shortly later. There was initially a snafu where they brought out someone's non-vegan dish (much to our chagrin), but after that it was smooth sailing. While I wasn't a huge fan of their fresh lumpia take (nothing beats the original spring-roll style), the pancit and the kalabasa were spot on. Everything was also gigantic portions and definitely too much for two people. I would recommend just splitting one entree and appetizer. Finally, they're located in a fun neighbourhood in Vancouver. Plenty of things to check out before and after if you have extra time.
Filipino comfort food is always a good idea. Kulinarya dishes are classic with a twist of hipster or maybe just because it's on the Drive. The chicken adobo is good and not oily. The lumpia is OK. The tapsilog was yum. The only thing I didn't like is the coffeee which was just Nespresso lol.
Stopped by here on a Thursday afternoon for lunch. This was me and my boyfriend's first time having Filipino food in Vancouver and everything we ordered was so flavorful! We got the beef kare-kare, lechon kawali and bbq pork skewers. The vegetables on the kare-kare were perfectly cooked, even the eggplants still have a good amount of bite to it! The portions were quite big and we had to box some for takeout (my boyfriend typically eats a lot!). Only comments were that I wish there's a bit more fat on the pork skewers (that charcoal caramelized fat ) and that the food is on the pricier side, which I guess can't be compared to other more fast food style places. Overall, we had a great experience here and would love to come back and try their sisig and sinigang!
This place is a gem - very friendly staff, and the food comes quick. - the fried calamari appetizer is legit. You know when calamari is just right - tender and soft yet still chewy? This is it, great texture. The fried bell peppers are delightfully sweet too. A bit small though. - the Sisig is the star and a must. Sizzling platter, very crispy, and the onions and veggies give it a wonderful strong flavour. - pair the Sisig with garlic rice. Goes very well together. - the pancit (batil Patong) is a nice blend of diff ingrediwnts. Would def come back, esp for the Sisig.
Filipino comfort food in Vancouver! First impression, the restaurant itself was so cozy, aesthetically pleasing, clean, and quaint, I honestly felt like I was stepping into a relatives' house being greeted by friendly staff. The food was so good! Portion size was generous, served family style. I also love that they serve Filipino breakfast all day, especially served with garlic fried rice...chef's kiss! Kare-Kare (peanut butter based stew with beef and veggies) 10/10! Very flavorful, nutty, and creamy stew. Loved that it still tasted authentic and just like home cooking. Bangsilog Breakfast (fried boneless milkfish served with egg, picked cucumbers and onions, and garlic fried rice)- 10/10! The fish was crunchy and had a nice vinegary marinade flavor. The garlic fried rice and egg completed the dish and was so tasty! Probably the best garlic fried rice from any Filipino restaurant that I've tasted. Ube Brownies- 7/10. This was a little too sweet at first bite, and the Ube flavor wasn't as potent. Tokwa Baboy (fried pork belly and tofu with a soy and vinegar sauce)- 9/10. This was yummy, just wish it was a bit more crunchy. I loved the tofu incorporated into it making it a great appetizer! Overall, we absolutely loved our dining experience at Kulinarya, and would definitely recommend going here if you are in Vancouver!

If you are wondering where to go for a traditional Filipino boodle fight for just a group of four people this is your place. It's hard to find places that offer this for only four people. Normally you need a lot more so this is an excellent little gem of a location to know. The service was really excellent, and you could tell it is family run. You can see also some personal memorabilia and collections in the bathroom, which really gives the traditional province feel of the Philippines. Philippines is a vast country with over 100,000 islands and this place gives me a feel of the province. The service was really good and the ambiance is nice. Though I would have life to see a few more things even like plants are photos in the main dining hall. Something to be aware of and it is a common problem for most places in Vancouver. Parking can be a real challenge so read the signs very carefully. read more

Kulinarya was my second experience with Filipino restaurant in Vancouver, being highly recommended by several people. Overall, really positive experience with regard to taste, portion sizes, and prices. Dishes are definitely meant to be eaten with rich and shared with the table as they can be rich on their own. Service is a bit slow due how busy the place was (we came on weekend) and ambiance can be loud as people came in big groups. Spring Rolls ($14) Pork and vegetables based mini spring rolls. I'd say this is decent appetizer, but just so-so compared to the rest of the dishes Kare-kare ($25) Beef stew with peanut sauce, served with eggplant and bokchoy. They also give you shrimp paste on the side, which really helped to cut through the richness of the peanut sauce. Really good dish especially the the eggplant, but I find the beef had too much fat to meat ratio Crispy Pata ($24) I feel like this is the Filipino take on German pork knuckle dish. Always a fan of crunchy skin, and paired well with the soy based dipping sauce and pickled salad (serving similar purpose like sauerkraut) Halo-halo ($10) The only other halo-halo I've tried was served in a bowl, whereas this one is slightly tricky to share since it's in a glass. It's always interesting to see how SEA countries have similar dessert concept to one another, however the ube really made it quite different. read more

Don't walk, RUN to this restaurant. I have ordered takeout twice in a week and a half from them and it's the most delicious thing I can't stop thinking about. After seeing travel food video on Crispy Pata, I knew I needed to eat it and came across Kulinarya having it on the menu. The bang for your buck in this wildly overpriced city is amazing. 10 crispy spring rolls for the price of what I pay for two at most places. An entire pork hock for 24$? Absolute win. Their tofu sisig is huge too! I've told all my friends, and I will be having this restaurant regularly. read more
I love any place that will let me have breakfast for dinner. We came here during their happy hour on Thursday and ordered pandan wings off their special discounted menu. We had also wanted the pork skewers (also part of happy hour deals but they were unavailable that day). The pandan wings were amazingly fresh and crispy! Sticky and sweet too We ordered their longsilog (longanisa sausages, eggs and rice) as well as their crispy binagoongan. The binagoongan was like having non-spicy Thai curry--so coconutty and the pork belly was so rich! The longsilog was really solid. But again, I love hanging breakfast for dinner! Sat in their outdoor seating area with our foster puppy which was really nice! read more
I came here in a large group and decided to get the pork belly rice plate. I haven't had a ton of Filipino food but I found it a bit dry and lacking of flavour. The pork belly was a bit overcooked but I did quite enjoy the way the egg was made. read more
An absolute gem on commercial drive. They accommodated our large group and we dined indoors. We decided to share a couple of plates and were not disappointed by the delicious Filipino food. Everything was SO tasty. 1. Deep fried spring rolls. Crispy, hot, filled with ground pork and vegetables. 2. Pancit. Classic noodle dish. 3. Inihaw na pusit. Grilled squid stuffed with veggies. 4. Kare-kare. We got it with beef. The beef was so tender and it paired perfectly with the vegetables and thick savoury peanut sauce. YOU MUST TRY THIS. 5. Crispy pata. Wow. Twice cooked pork left served with house made soy and vinegar dipping sauce. So crispy. So good. MUST TRY. 6. House sinigang. Did not picture because we devoured it. A tamarind sour soup with veggies and pork. 7. Garlic rice. Also did not picture because we devoured it. It was so good we ordered TWO. YOU MUST ORDER THIS AND EAT IT WITH THE KARE KARE AND ALL THE DELICIOUS MEAT. You will not regret it. Anyways. Delicious. Amazing. Great service. We will be back for the kamayan feast. read more
I would consider myself an expert in Filipino cuisine. As I have traveled many countries and made it a goal to eat Filipino food at the places I visit. Filipino food is supposed to be flavorful and provide good moms home cooking vibes. As right when you step into Kulinarya, you feel like you're eating at home with your family. The staff is very pleasant. As soon as I looked at the menu, I wanted to order everything. So it was tough on getting Kare Kare, Bungsilog, and Tokwa Baboy! Kare Kare - 12/10 - the peanut butter sauce was creamy. Make sure to add the tripe for free. The veggies were fresh and cooked right. Tokwa Baboy - Pork belly grilled to perfection. Tofu wasn't undercooked or burnt, the toast of the tofu was great. Make sure to ask for extra vinegar sauce, you can thank me later ;) Bungsilog - almost felt like I was eating breakfast at my moms house. This a staple in any Filipino household and this hit all the spots! read more
I've beeen here a few times and the quality of the food never stops! It also is one of the most authentic Filipino foods in Vancouver! Delicious and affordable! My go-to place if I'm ever missing home! Since Covid started getting worse, calling them to order and then picking it up has been the best solution and works every time! Will come back to dine one day again! I loved the place and the service! read more

Delicious Filipino food! Came here with a group of people after work and we had a great dinner. Great selection of different dishes, and service was friendly and attentive. The food was tasty and authentic. I loved the flavor profiles of the different dishes we tried! We were all stuffed by the end of the meal. I would recommend to others and will definitely be back! read more
I'm Filipino, so naturally of course, Filipino food has a very special place in my heart. Many of my friends ask me for recommendations on where to try Filipino food in Vancouver. The answer I would always give is that it's always just better at someone's house, and not a restaurant. That's until I heard about Kulinarya which just opened on commercial drive. If you're curious about Filipino food and don't know where to start -- Kulinarya definitely gets the stamp of approval in my books! The restaurant itself has a hip and trendy vibe. It is beautifully decorated with colourful accents and photos on the walls. Even the sinks in the bathroom are beautiful and colorful! I applaud whoever was the director of design. Also, I have to say props to whoever makes the music playlist that plays in the background -- my friends and I were vibing out the whole time! More importantly... how authentic was the food you ask? Take it from me, the flavours were spot on. I ordered the Sinigang, which is traditionally a very savoury and sour dish with pork and vegetables. It's literally my favourite food that my mom made for me growing up. When I tasted the first spoonfull of the tamarind broth, I thought --- YUP, that's it! The level of sour kind of kicks you in the face -- just how I like it. But it might be a bit weird for someone who is not used to this type of flavour. If it's your first time trying Filipino food, I would recommend the Lumpia (springrolls) to start, which are served with a sweet chilli dipping sauce. Lumpia is served at almost every Filipino party, and are always a crowd favourite. I would recommend the breakfast items (eg: Tapsilog) which are all pretty solid -- Barbeque meat, rice, and egg served in a skillet. Another safe option could be the chicken adobo -- which is also a favourite dish of mine! The only downfall was the dessert.... the lecheflan was too dense and needed to be more creamy... and parts of the cassava cake were cold in the center. I think it's because of the container that it was served in... it was too deep so the cake wasn't heated evenly. I have to say that the *flavours* were definitely all correct, so it was just the texture that was the issue for the desserts. I'm happy and proud that a bit of my culture is being shared in the Vancouver community! I told my mom about Kulinarya and now she's curious and wants to pay a visit to see if it's better than her cooking. Haha! We'll let mama be the judge :) read more

This was my first time trying Filipino food despite my fiancé being Filipino. All the food was very flavourful and prepared well. However, the service was lacking. The restaurant was completely full but there were only 2 servers- I think it took about 45mins for us to get our food. While the flavour palette is all new to me, I liked the chicken adobo and sinigang best. The sinigang is a sour soup which is very different to me but again, it was full of flavour and was full of veggies and pieces of pork. read more
The great big sign out front, "Vegans welcome", got us in the door. They serve meat dishes, but they also have about 10 all-vegan dishes, ranging from appetizers (including lumpia) to vegetables dishes, noodles, and a soup. We ordered the sizzling tofu, pinakbet (green beans, squash, eggplant, and okra [though it came with bitter melon instead]), and pancit bihon (a noodles dish with tofu and veggies). The sizzling tofu comes on a hot plate and was particularly delicious despite its simplicity (the lemon juice really adds a lovely touch to it). The veggie dish was tasty and so were the noodles. The flavours were all fairly mild. Though it's definitely a vegan-friendly place menu-wise, towards the end of our meal, they started preparing a big table with all sorts of pungent meat and seafood dishes, which honestly smelled horrendous -- we had to quickly finish and leave, as the smell was making us nautious. This might disincentivize us to eat here in the future and perhaps do take-out instead. The bill for the three dishes came to $42 after tax, before tip. Very friendly and fast service. I'd definitely recommend giving the place a try. read more

This is the closest you'll get to authentic Filipino food in Vancouver! I've been pretty homesick lately, so I knew that Kulinarya would help me with that. The food is excellent, portions are slightly small for the price. If you're looking for a nice and quiet ambiance, you won't find that in Kulinarya on a Friday night. Coming on a weekday might be better! I just wanted to add that the people are warm and friendly, just like everyone else back home. Thank you to ate B for making us feel at home! I love this place! They do get busy though so I recommend making a reservation on weekends. read more

Authentic Filipino cuisine at it's finest. This is my favourite spot in Vancouver to get Filipino food. I've been to Kulinarya a few different times now for different reasons: pop up events when they bring in Filipino chefs from around the world and showcase a special menu and on my own time for brunch and dinner. All the times I've been have been excellent. I've said it in past reviews, but I don't normally seek out Filipino food when I go out to eat, primarily because I've been spoiled with such great Filipino food at home. Nothing can compare to my parent's and grandma's cooking. Buuuuut, Kulinarya comes really really really close. They are about as authentic as you get all while adding a modern twist to their dishes. I love me a good Filipino breakfast and Kulinarya does this well. They have your typical fried rice, eggs and longanisa dishes, which is fantastic, as well as an assortment of other dishes. To be honest, I haven't tried any of their other brunch dishes, primarily because I love me a good traditional Filipino breakfast. But they do have ube pancakes, which is on my list for my next visit. They also do Kamayan style meals which means "eating with your hands". This is a unique Filipino experience where all the food is placed on top of banana leaves and you dig in with your hands. It's $30/person Monday-Thursday and $35/person Friday-Sunday, which is a great deal for all the food you get and the experience you can brag to your friends about. Filipino dishes are usually heavy on the seafood and meat, but Kulinarya is one of the only Filipino restaurants that I've see create a separate veggie menu. Snaps and applause for them! If you're looking for authentic, home cooked meal style Filipino food, you need to visit Kulinarya. Your taste buds will thank you. read more

Excellent boodle selection complete with authentic banana leaf spread with white rice, lechon kawali, Kare kare, pritong Bantus, plantain, Lumpia and mixed veggies such as talong (eggplant), bokchoy and string beans. Four allocated sauces consisting of mang Tomas lechon sauce, chili sweet sauce, vinegar and bagoong (shrimp paste). Decor is filled with Filipino memorabilia from pictures, straw matted plates and wooden seatings. Highlight of the day: eat with your hands!! Washroom is gender neutral. Staff is very friendly and rotate to ask if customers are satisfied and needs anything. No wifi. read more

My friends and I were craving some Filipino food, so we decided to check this place out. I looked at the binagoongan description and had to go for it. You have to have the crispy pork! Definitely the best plate from what we ordered. Nothing too special about the spring rolls or the chicken wings. It is very busy so it'll take a while for them to help you. Otherwise, friendly and feels like a large gathering at home. I feel like there were a lot of sizzling plates, so I might order that the next time I'm in. Smelled delicious in there. read more
Kulinarya is one of the best place to try out Philipinno food! They have such a great variety at great prices! Aside from ordering a la carte style they also have this fun kamayan feast where they lay out your choice of dishes on banana leaf on top of the table and you can feast using without utensils - definitely worth a try with a large group! In my recent visit we came to the vancouver location with a group of friends and ordered a some dishes to share. The kare kare was my favourite with the peanut sauce and tender beef. We also tried the Batil Patong (stir fry egg noodles with pork belly) bad boy (pork belly) and you can't forget to order the garlic fried rice - it is the best part! read more
Came here after looking at their kamayan-style feast(eating with your bare hands). But apparently you need to book in advance and requires 6 in a party or more. Nevertheless, ordered their crispy pata, chicken wings, kare-kare, and bangus. I'd say their wings the best among all. It's a mix of salty and sweet but its good. The rest are also good but not the best I 've tried. Ask for a shrimp paste for their kare-kare. The kare-kare itself is quite sweet and adding their shrimp paste makes it more tasty. Yum yum read more
