Tinuno's Kamayan Feast is a steal of a deal - A solid 4.5/5 stars! For 15 pp you truly get an experience all on its own! Tinuno isn't the most open space, being as tight as it is, I wouldn't recommend walking into this restaurant without reservations or with mentally preparing how close you will be to the table next to you. If you aren't okay sitting a few inches to the next table, this wouldn't be the place for you. Service, however was perfect. The staff truly embody Filipino culture and how we are passionate about service and keeping everyone happy. Food was just as amazing. Again for 15 pp, you're given a wide range of food to experience. Do keep in mind, if you have any allergies, you need to address this as you don't choose what you get to eat, it's set. Gone here many times before and I will continue to do so moving forward! read more

Tinuno - KAMAYAN FEAST - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I really like the Kamayan experiences and in general the food is amazing. I have bern to this place three times and hold off writing a review too make sure what I'm about to write happens consistently and it does; the Milkfish and Tilapia are both always overly salted that not only me but who ever I took with myself had the same opinion and they always become food waste because the saltyness is unbearable, but everything else is tasty and flavourful. read more

Wow! This place is a real gem. I had the opportunity to visit Tinuno last week during a vacation to Canada and OH. MY. GAWSH... it was amazing. Boyfriend and I had the Kamayan feast along with a plate of lechon. Everything about our meal was perfect. Definitely make a reservation for your visit a day or so in advance or else you'll end up standing outside, hangry, and hoping someone misses their reservation. read more

The food is great and the value you pay is amazing. It's definitely an interesting experience for someone who is unfamiliar with Philippine culture. This place opened my eyes to their cuisine and made me want to come back or explore more Philippine delicacy. It is definitely a worthy try to be on any foodie's list. But be warn, this place is really popular. Reservation is a must or else you will be waiting until your stomach starts to eat itself. read more

Tinuno - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

3.5 Star Truth be told: I actually enjoy eating with my hands and would have no issue if it became more of a social norm here as it is many places in the world. I was able to do a couple cultural exchanges in my early 20's and it's great to appreciate the experience, social aspect, and even ease of eating this way (depending on the food). First off, a huge credit to the place is that it's very inexpensive - I suspect more so with a larger group. I think it was around $15 all in per person. Regarding the food, I loved the rice and the various grilled fish were the highlights. It's mostly a savoury and seasoned taste you have from the meal. The pork belly and kebabs were pretty good. I found the shrimp,muscles and squid to be a bit overcooked. I'm sure it was fairly recently prepared, but since everything comes out virtually all at once it may have been cooked a few minutes by the time we received it, which affects the quality noticeably since those items don't retain heat too well - especially the squid. It was a great experience by virtue of eating family style with a group of friends in a comfortable atmosphere. Very good value with some pretty good items, though the food as a whole didn't necessarily awe me. read more

I decided to come here after seeing a video posted by blogTO and was definitely not disappointed. The food was absolutely amazing! While, it is popular, I would avoid going during prime meal times as it gets very busy and the restaurant itself is very small with limited seating and very limited waiting area. Or, call ahead of time to make a reservation! The first time I went during prime time and it was packed! There was barely any place to stand in the waiting area and took a while to be seated, as there were many people waiting. The waitress asked us for our order, we asked for the Kamayan feast with Talipia. We sat and waited for quite some time until a waiter at the cash asked us if we ordered yet and the waitress came by again to ask us for our order (I believe they lost our order the first time). When the food did come, it was a bit too burnt. However, we went a second time, we did not have that problem. The food was worth the wait, it is a lot of food per person as it only costed C$15 per person. The Kamayan feast is served on banana leaves, consisting of bbq skewers, mussels, shrimp, grilled fishes, eggplant, and okra on top of garlic rice. While they give you free re-fills on garlic rice, it is probably not needed as it already comes with so much food. They provide you with disposable plastic gloves as it is meant to be eaten with your hands. They do have plastic spoons available on the side if eating with your hands is uncomfortable for you. Overall, the food is delicious and I would definitely come back to eat here once in a while. It is a treat! read more

Tinuno - Kamayan Feast - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I came to Tinuno approx. 3-4 years ago for a friend's birthday party. I revisited again this month and my experience is pretty similar. Both times I came with a big group (6-12 people), which makes the meal much more fun. The meal is served on banana leaves and starts with a small mango salad and some fruit. You get served a variety of seafood and meats (squid, milkfish, skewers, shrimp, mussels, tilapia, okra, eggplant) over a bed of garlic fried rice, and are expected to eat with your hands. For those uncomfortable with eating with your hands, you can use cutlery or wear gloves (which are provided). My favourites included the skewers, the milkfish and the mussels. I found the garlic fried rice to be a bit bland - very light on the garlic and salt flavour. The meal would be enhanced if the garlic flavour was stronger in the rice. In addition, I found the food got cold quite quickly as everything was laid out on the banana leaves. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience! It's a fun and different way of eating, and the portions are very generous. Make sure you call ahead for reservations since this place gets packed fast! read more

Tinuno - Tinuno - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Definitely book a reservation if you plan on visiting! This restaurant gets super crowded and busy. The menu consists of two sections. You can either order the $15/person kamayan feast or one of their all-day breakfast options (meats + rice). My boyfriend and I opted for the kamayan. Everything about this dinner is already pre-selected for you -- the only decision you'll need to make is whether you want milkfish or tilapia. As a hands-only meal, they offer plastic gloves on the side for you which makes things really easy. The garlic rice was our favorite part about this meal. It was the perfect balance to all the super salty, sour, and savory foods that are a part of this meal. The seating is tight and the staff can be a bit overwhelmed with the insane amounts of people who come in. But other than that, I would highly recommend trying this place! read more

Finally had a chance to try kamayan at Tinuno. The Kamayan Feast ($15/person) is a traditional Filipino meal usually reserved for special occasions and consists of a variety of food that is presented on large banana leaves and eaten family style with your hands - no plates; no utensils. I made reservations earlier in the day for 7:30pm but our table was not ready when we arrived. We were asked if we were willing to sit outside and we agreed but were still not seated until 8pm. We were told that our order had been put in before we were seated so that we would not have to wait long for our food but it was not ready until 8:30pm. The host was really nice and apologetic but I was a little irked as I saw others who had arrived later, be seated and receive their food at least a half hour before ours was ready. For our meal, a generous portion of sticky garlic rice was spread out and shaped in a line on the banana leaves and then the grilled seafood (squid, bangus belly, tilapia, mussels, shrimps), meat (bbq pork, pork belly) and veggies (okra, eggplant) were laid out on top of it. Each person also had their own portion of mango salad laid out in front of them. All the food here comes straight off the grill and has a smokey flavour to it. My favorite was the bbq pork skewers as it was covered in a delicious banana ketchup. Not being a huge fan of bbq myself, I found the meal to be smokey but not overwhelmingly so. However, I did find the skin on the fish to be a little on the salty side and it's probably best to eat the rice with it in order to tone down the saltiness. As well, because the seafood is grilled, it does lose some of its sweetness and moisture. Overall, Kamayan is a fun way to share a meal with friends. The presentation is especially spectacular when you have a large party (we saw a party of over 15 people being served as we were about to leave). I would probably come back if I had friends visiting the city and wanted to introduce them to something new but personally, I wouldn't come back on my own as I found the food just ok. But for the price it really is quite a deal. read more

If you look past the rough-looking neighbourhood, the hole-in-the-wall feel of the restaurant and the plastic tables, you will be rewarded with a very yummy traditional Filipino Kamayan meal here at Tinuno - this is hands-down the best place in Toronto to do this. The owner prides himself that his food is traditional, and not fusion like other Filipino restos in the city, and he should be proud - because the food here is great. The kitchen doesn't start cooking your food until they know you are there, because they want the food arriving hot on your table. We are a group of 8 and it took about 15-20 minutes for the food to arrive, which is a totally reasonable amount of time. Other restaurants take much longer for Kamayan. For $15 per person, you get mango salad, grilled squid, shrimp, pork belly, pork skewer, okra, eggplant, mussels, 2 kinds of grilled fish (tilapia and bangus), all laid on top of a very delicious garlic rice - you simply cannot beat this and this is an absolute steal. Food tasted great and it was fun to eat with your hands. They even provide gloves if you want them! The restaurant is packed on a Monday night, which speaks volumes. I would strongly suggest making reservations if you want to do this as a group. Our group of 8 was a tight squeeze in this small restaurant but they made it work. If you are a serious Toronto foodie, this is simply a must-try!! read more

What a feast! I came here with three friends for the Kamayan feast. Grilled pork, calamari, two kinds of fish, mussels and shrimp are served on a bed of garlic rice alongside green mango salad, all on banana leaves. You eat with your hands, though they offer gloves if you want. We are a messy and impatient bunch, so we didn't go for gloves. Everything was delicious, though I found the fish a tiny bit overcooked. The rice alone would get 5 stars from me. The food came out incredibly quickly and service was really friendly. This is a small place, so reservations are recommended. This is a fantastic spot to enjoy a casual dinner with friends, or to take a first date so you can gauge how cool they are. read more

Had the kamayan feast twice and it's been awesome. Garlic rice and pork are especially tasty. Will visit again

We got the "kamayan", the traditional Filipino feast where you eat with your hands. You get gloves of course! The kamayan comes on banana leaves, with rice, okra, seasoned meat, shrimp, fish, muscles, etc. All for just $15. It is well worth the price, and only the rice can be topped up. read more

Experience: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Food (flavor-wise): 3 stars Price: 5 stars Overall 4.5 I wanted to visit Tinuno for a long time and finally got to do it last weekend with my family. I booked a table a week in advance (which was a really good idea as there was a big line-up in front of the door when we got there). We were seated immediately and given the menu. I had never had Filipino/Island food before and it was so interesting to all of us to see they serve food on big leaves. Watching the servers lay out food in front of you was entertaining. As for the price, it's way too cheap. $15 per person for all that food!! There were some things I really liked and some other seafood that I did not like as much. The rice was absolutely delicious. I personally did not like the chunks of grilled fat (skin?) they put on the table. They were too chewy and greasy for me. My only complaint is that the food generally was bland, with no marinade or any spices added to it. You had to dip it in different sauces they had on the table, and it tasted like whatever sauce you picked... But it was good quality and fun to eat! Bring your favourite dipping sauce with you and you will love the food. The mango salad was delicious and I recommend trying their mango juice as well. If you are into seafood, definitely try this place. read more

My husband and I came here about 3 weeks ago to try their kamayan feast as we kept hearing about it and finally found time to go! This hole in the wall place is located in a somewhat rough looking area but if you can ignore the shabby looking exterior with its wooden plank door and partly boarded up window, you'll be surprised to find a homey place to eat some good Filipino food. We saw several customers getting take out and some dining in for their regular Filipino dishes. The kamayan feast here for $15 per person is probably the best deal you can get in the GTA for this type of feasting. You get rice on banana leaves with piles of barbecued pork, milkfish, mussels, grilled octopus slices, shrimp, some veggies like okra and eggplant along with mango salad and orange slices for a bright touch. It was nicely presented, good simple flavours and very filling! Their version of kamayan is more authentic and rustic compared to Lamesa's $50 per person fancier fusion spin - both versions are delicious but Tinuno is obviously way more budget friendly. I definitely recommend going with a smaller group as we saw for ourselves that larger portions seem to be given to groups of 2 like us compared to the portion that a group of 6 had gotten. Also remember to call ahead to make a reservation (no online booking) as this place is small and fills up quickly. Enjoy! read more

Kamayan feast at Tinuno! It's Filipino food that you can eat with your hands. It's generally grilled pork and seafood over garlic rice, laid out on banana leaves. You also get grilled vegetables (eggplant and okra), plus mango salad and orange slices to start. They do have gloves for those who don't want to get all greasy. It's only $15 per person! Really can't beat that price for such a large amount of food. There's both patio and indoor sitting. It's better to make a reservation if you're going around peak dinner time. read more

Tinuno - Kamayan feast for 4 - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We were headed to Toronto planning to eat somewhere else but those plans fell through. So instead we found this place through Yelp and based off the reviews figured we would give this place a try. Upon arrival the staff seemed super busy BUT were very polite and squeezed us in without any reservations. Though they seemed to be running around so busy I was just glad they were friendly and said "hi". So it seemed like you only had two (2) options: this feast where you eat with your hands or to order from what appeared to be a simple Filipino breakfast menu. So considering we drove from the U.S. and were starving just ran with the feast which was $15 per person CAD (or at time of conversion when we went like ~$10 per person USD). 1. Food was awesome being laid out with warm garlic fried rice over a banana leaves (which think of it like a plate but the length of the table), then fish, mussels, filipino stick bbq, mango salad, grilled squid, grilled veggies like okra and egg plant and shrimp. It was a great size portion and you share all of it. 2. Service again was simply awesome and people were kind and friendly I would definitely go there again and refer it to my friends! read more

What a feast! The Kamayan feast serves up a variety of meats, skewers, vegetables, seafood, and rice on a giant banana leaf. The staff is friendly and helpful. The pricing of the feast is per person and includes a bottle of water per head. You also have the option of getting plastic gloves to rummage through the pile of food. If you wanna give this place a try, make sure you call ahead early and let them know how many of you are coming! Only downside: I'm pretty sure they don't serve people who eat alone. read more

This is for the Ilocos Empanada review. Worst Ilocos empanada ever. I'm from Ilocos and it's a shame that they advertise this as that!!definitely not worth the $5 price. Ilocos empanada typically have egg insideand this doesnt!! Bought 2 today. Had to waste the first one as it is cooked raw. You can taste the flour. They cook it from frozen btw. Lol. The second one which is in this photo was again cooked unwell and this one doesn't have any meat on it just pure cabbage?? (No egg, mongo,meat) . Very disappointing. +Had stomach pain afterwards.

We stopped by around noon on Sunday, and were seated immediately. We definitely got there are at the right time cause 15 minutes later, there was a line out the door! The service was a bit odd -- we were seated but nobody came to take our order, I think they just assumed (correctly) that we were there for the kamayan feast. About 15-20 minutes later, the food came! The pork belly and bbq pork were so good! I also really liked the squid! it was so satisfying to see so much grilled goodness laid out in front of you, ready to be eaten! Overall, the value for the meal was amazing! They were so busy so service was spotty, but it's understandable. On the way out we got a turon to go (you'll see them on display by the cash). They are fried, rolled up banana desserts/snacks.. they are SOOO good, please please get some to go! When we were ordering, the lady asked how many we wanted, and we said just one. WRONG CHOICE. I could've eaten 6 ($1 each). PLEASE GET THEM! and then thank me later! read more

Tinuno - Kamayan feast for 2! Tilapia fish not there yet - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I've been wanting to try out the Kamayan Feast for quite some time since I saw how amazing the food looked, and I've finally gathered a group of friends to try out the restaurant with me. Environment: The restaurant is located right off the Sherborne Subway Station. I've never been to the area before and I was expecting a downtown Toronto vibe, but then when I got out of the station I was a bit turned off by how "sketchy" the area seemed. Even though the Bloor-Yonge intersection is only a subway station away, the Sherborne area felt really quiet in comparison. The houses seem a little run down with graffiti on the walls, and one of my friend told me this is not an area you want to be in at night because there have been shootings :/ Onto the restaurant itself. Tinuno is actually a very small family-owned restaurant with very limited seating. We called for reservation ahead of time so we were able to secure our spot, but they had to turn away some people because they were super packed on the Friday night. Other than our group of 7, they also had another group of 14, and then another group of 10, who ended up had to sit upstairs because the downstairs area was overfilled with customers. Even though the restaurant was clean and all, it was really tight due to the over-booking, which led to a not-so-good dining experience. Food: Our group ordered the Kamayan Feast to share among us. They first layer the table with banana leaves imported directly from the Philippines to complete the authentic dining experience. Then they provided us each a portion of their mango salad with oranges as appetizers. After that, they layered the garlic rice bedding across the middle of the table, then piled up the meats and veggies. For $15 per person we got grilled Bangus fish fillet (their local fish from the Philippines), grilled whole Tilapia, grilled calamari, pork belly, BBQ pork skewers, mussels, shrimps, eggplants, and okras. For that kind of price it's pretty worth it and a lot of the meats were seafood. I really liked the fish, pork belly, and especially the really flavourful BBQ pork skewers. One of my friend had been to Tinuno before and she commented that when she was here in a party of 3, they got more food to share among them. Later on I noticed that when I looked around as well, as the 2 people tables got more food per person on average. At our table, it was basically survival of the fittest, in which we fought over who gets what pieces of meat and the person who seated themselves strategically at the table and ate the fast was the champion. Service: We arrived at around 6:45pm for our 7pm reservation, but we didn't get seated until around 7:20pm because they were overbooked and were overwhelmed with the amount of traffic. After they seated the other 14-person group, the waiters pulled out more tables to set our table up, and I was amazed at how quickly they were able to arrange everything. Even though the waiters were clearly overwhelmed, they remained composed and handled the situation very well, without being frustrated toward the customers. Our waitress was really welcoming and she explained to us the origins of some the ingredients. Even though the traditional way of eating Filipino food is to use your hands (they provide the gloves), they can also accommodate those who prefer chopsticks or forks. Overall, I had a great experience at Tinuno, as the food was delicious and it was plentiful for me that left me satisfied after our meal. I would consider returning, but definitely at a less busy time and with a much smaller group. read more

Saw photos of this place on Instagram, and having not really tried too much Filipino in the past we tried this place out. And it was awesome. The food is a set menu, and it's a out $20 per person. Food was fresh and delicious. All the food is grilled and put on top of this bed of tasty garlic rice. The 4 of us almost finished our food.

Tinuno - Grilled meats and seafood on a bed of garlic rice. So good. - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I don't know if the real Filipino street barbecue are like this, but it looks really authentic. I love the way they used banana leaves to serve food and flavoured the rice with red onion, which turned out tasted really good. The chicken skewers were yum, so did the seafood, the fish were a bit over grilled but very fresh. My friends had the pork and they loved it. Overall it's a refreshing dining experience. read more

This was my first time trying Filipino cuisine and Tinuno far surpassed my expectations! I came here for a Sunday lunch with 9 people and surprisingly got a seat at the crowded restaurant in their second-floor party room. They even let us bump our own tunes! Only half our table wanted the Kamayan feast and the waitstaff were super accommodating. The feast was a messy communal experience, but well worth the saucy plastic gloves and seafood shells. The mango salad and white rice provided the right balance with the dry, grilled seafoods and meats, and the flavours worked wonderfully together. The best part was feeling like the meal actually brought us closer together since many of us were meeting for the first time - and what better way to become acquainted than eating with our hands together from the same row of food! I can't wait to come back for my second feast and to try the other dishes. read more

Tinuno - Kamayan feast - Filipino Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

super yummy but also SUPER busy!! call ahead/make a reservation if you have a big group coming. my family was visiting toronto and called ahead for a party of 7, and when we got there they said our name wasn't on the list. but, they figured it out and were still able to accomodate us. the food was great as a filipino myself, I could tell how much work and care went into cooking the kamayan feast. it is genuine, authentic, could be your lola's or tita's or nanay's, well-prepared food. $15 per person for the kamayan is totally reasonable for the amount AND quality of the food. i also had their longgsilog and it was only $7! the service was satisfactory, as well. the servers were polite (typical filipino hospitality) and worked efficiently! the space itself is a little small, but again, it is VERY busy and even with 2 floors, a little elbow-bumping is expected. it is warm in the upper floor, but that makes it feel more like the philippines lol. all in all, if you are in toronto and are craving a little slice of home or are curious to try our filipino culture, tinuno hits all the bases, and at very reasonable prices too! salamat (thank you), tinuno!! read more

This place is known for their boodle fight style of Filipino food. Honestly, maybe it's just that I'm not a fan of eating with my hands, but the food was simply average. The squid was tough and hard to separate out for shared consumption. The shrimp was difficult to peel. The beef was too stuck onto the skewers and we had a hard time getting them off the wooden sticks. Garlic rice was the standout for me here! read more

Good experience overall, especially the food. Presentation of the food and eating with our hands definitely adds to a new experience. The dining environment wasn't the best, we were seated inside, it was pretty smokey since the place is small and air can't circulate very well. We made reservation in advance. It's worth calling them, since they might have more time slots over the phone. That's what happened to me. read more

Came here for a friend's birthday with a large group of people sitting upstairs. All I can say was that it's a fun experience. Some of us got there on time and they told us that the food was already ready. We went upstairs and a lady assembled the table really quickly. It was mesmerizing watching her assembling all the food together. You can either eat with your bare hands or with gloves. Food tasted really good. I liked the mussels, the squid, the beef skewers and shrimp. After I was full I kept eating because there was food in front of me. If you ever go there, make sure you have the appetite of a behemoth ready to devour everything. read more

Tinuno is pretty hyped up but I think they live up to it!! There's a solid amount of food for a very reasonable price plus the layout is always aesthetic. Service is also nice and fast. My only complaint is that since the space is sort of cramped it can get really humid and I don't think there's air conditioning. If you're going in the evening consider trying to sit out on the patio in the summer, it's probably cooler out there. read more

This place was on the radar after it opened up. So with two Yelp friends in tow we decided to show up. Luckily we had made reservations well in advance which are highly recommended as most of the floor level seating was taken up by a large group. Several people were even turned away. The seating is very basic. We had already decided for the Kamayan (15$ per person). The minimum size for Kamayan is 2 people so solo diners might be disappointed (one can always order two) I haven't tried Kamayan style food before hand and my exposure to Filipino food is limited to mainstream items. They serve unlimited serving of mango salad and garlic rice. Both items are decent. As for the BBQ items well its BBQ for starters and done well for seafood (I didn't try any pork items as don't eat those but DC enjoyed them) The fish items and the squid stood out IMO. Shrimps and mussels were OK so were the egg plant and okra but at this price I don't expect much. They serve on a banana leaf and one has to eat with the hand. I can't really eat rice with my hand so luckily they provided disposable gloves which is appreciated. At this price this is a no-brainer IMO. They are easily accessible by TTC if one just takes the Howard street exit you can't miss it. read more

We ordered the kamaya feast for 5 people and it was interesting as you eat it with gloves. But remember that you have to call and preorder the feast ahead of time, which is good because then you get your food fairly quick as well. Some good points about the feast is that it comes with bottled water, oranges and mangos. The taste of the feast was mostly very flavourful, the rice in particular seemed to soak in a lot of the flavour from the seafood and was a nice plus. One part of the fish tasted the best in comparison to the other parts it seems as though they were seasoned differently. Some bad parts of the feast was that there was only 1 squid to share amongst five people. Also, the restaurant was a little cramped so every time someone would walk in the aisle you'd have to be careful. Another thing is while there are gloves, no bibs are provided so be wary when eating the rice or the skewer as sauce and rice bits would fall onto your lap if you're clumsy like I am. While the food was tasty, it would not be a restaurant that I would visit over and over again, I would revisit to bring people who is from out of town just to expose them to this type of dining experience. read more
