We went for lunch. I had read many reviews about this restaurant…read more They were right. It was fantastic. I had Filipino food a few times years ago. The rice noodle dish stands out in my mind. It was delicate and flavorful. Kanayan Grill is in a strip mall. But it is an island of its own. The restaurant is clean and well cared for. The server was friendly and helpful. She checked on us and answered questions. We had the egg rolls which were crispy and very good with a dipping sauce. We ordered sotanghon which best fit my memory of a favorite from the past. I was really good. A large portion with vegetables and meat. We also had Bicol express combo. This was a wonderful surprise. The flavors blended together in a savory creamy spicy sauce-heat can be adjusted. You could taste the coconut but not overpowering. Just the perfect blend. The pork was tender. It came with a perfectly cooked rice. Beverages were cans/bottles with cups of ice on request. For dessert we had the famous Halo-Halo. Mix mix mix we were told. And we did. But before I mixed I tried the Ube ice cream alone. I had never had Ube before. It was delicious. I read the ingredients before I ordered it but after mix mix mix we were treated to taste explosions. I am not sure what each one was to be honest, but it was amazing and I didn't need to know. It was a fun experience. I didn't add photos because there are so many perfect photos already posted. We will definitely come back. We would not do take out cause we would miss the fun of being there. I am sure their takeout is great. Thanks for a delicious fun experience.

Chicken Adobo Sinigang Both could use a little more sour to really drive it home. Both still good but not better than Manila Eats. However, they do cook to order so that's a great perk. Only 2 tables, it's a small space with the rest of the square footage dedicated to retail. It was worth the drive from Brandon...

The nice lady in back of the front cash register took our order, and we sat down in the small restaurant area in the back and we ordered egg rolls (lumpia), and Bistek Tagalog.

The store has an extensive variety of Phillipine dry foods, seasonings, snacks, and frozen food.

She gave me a small sample of each of the ready to eat dishes. Every single one was fabulous! I also got an order of lumpia since it was the only Philippine food Ive heard of before this. Now I crave them! So crispy and good. I loved the filling. She also offers carryout items from a menu. Much more to offer. And a very good selection of Boba teas. People should try their food. Sometimes those little "hole-in-the-wall" spots end up being so good.

First just a plate of pancit and lumpia, to make sure it tasted like I remembered. I ate the lumpia before I even got home. Then I ordered a lumpia tray for a dinner party with a Filipino family friend (she said lumpia was too much work) and everyone enjoyed it. Today my staff at USF celebrated APIDA/MENA month by introducing them to pancit and lumpia. It was awesome! They couldn't get enough. I will continue ordering from Pinay!

WOW is all I can say! This was the real deal! Absolutely delicious Filipino food that was bursting with flavor! The pancit was perfectly cooked and so flavorful with just the right bite in the noodles. The lumpia was one of the best I've ever had! Delicious filling and super crispy on the outside (zero grease!). The flan is to die for! I didn't but I could have eaten the entire thing myself! Give this small business a chance you will not be sorry!!

It was still delicious and still very sweet so…read moreI definitely recommend it without the evaporated milk if you're unable to consume any milk products. I can still eat ice cream though LOL. The dessert drink was absolutely delicious. I waited for the shaved ice to melt a little bit so I can drink some of it and all the little fruits in there and the beans were absolutely so fresh and I really love the Ube in there. I'm one of those type of people that like to custom my drinks and food so next time I would probably omit some of the fruits in there and either add extra Ube or extra ice cream or something like that if they allow it. The service was exceptional. The folks behind the counter were absolutely super sweet. I know they're Filipino, but I literally felt like I was in Hawaii. The service was so incredible. I felt like I was in paradise.

The Filipiniana is a small, humble eatery that sits in a rather hidden plaza (it's hardly…read morenoticeable from the main road) along and at the crossroads of eastbound Waters Avenue and Dale Mabry. Like most other Filipino restaurants/cafe, there is a behind-the-counter, glass protected buffet at the forefront of the restaurant. From here, you can make your selections as you build your combination platter. The Filipiniana also offers a small section of baked goods and desert, while specializing in drinks such as Halo Halo and other Asian-curated beverages. Interesting to note that the Filipiniana offers catering in the kamayan style (simply put, a spread of various dishes over banana leaves to be shared by multiple people amd eaten with hands). However, they don't serve this in house/at the location - you will have to give advance notice (like with other caterers) to have this prepared. The Filipiniana is definitely a good spot to satiate your curiousity, explore, and discover Filipino cuisine!
