Kabayan Grill Filipino Restaurant

I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a while due to good reviews, and I’m so glad I finally did. The place was clean, and the warm, welcoming vibe immediately stood out. There were so many dishes I wanted to try, but I ordered the barbecue sticks to go along with kare kare—and both were absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich, comforting, and reminded me of true home-cooked Filipino food. It was evident that many of the patrons were regulars, which added to the cozy, community feel. For a while, they even played Filipino music, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel even more authentic. Although the restaurant is a little out of the way for me, it was definitely worth the trip. Between the amazing food, and the atmosphere that felt like home, I’ll be coming back.

Filipino cuisine in Orlando? My dad would have absolutely loved this place ❤️ @kabayangrill The food here is legit—every single dish we ordered was incredibly delicious and tasted like how my relatives cooked them. From the first bite, you can tell it’s made with care and authenticity. Huge shoutout to our server, Vanessa, who was so kind and helpful—guiding us through the menu and even making sure we didn’t over-order 😆 (which is hard to do when everything sounds amazing!). We truly enjoyed every moment and every bite at Kabayan Grill. We’ll definitely be back! . #lumpiangshanghai #karekare #crispypata #pancitbihon #pinakbet #sagodrink #calamansijuice #mangojuice and of course, #halohalo . #willtravelforfood #Orlando #kissimmee #foodninjakat

*Edited* Review from a couple of months ago, and when i looked back found some grammatical errors. Very highly rated and I've been to several filipino restaurants while visiting Orlando. If you are staying in the bulk of the timeshare property outside Disney, it's 25 minutes or so. An excellent choice as the traditional filipino fare is served. Thier lumpia is different than what I'm used too, but it's fine. I had a good lunch and took something for tonight as dinner. They offer canned coke products here. Parking was plentiful but also challenging. It's in a strip mall so there is lots to park but for my trip, it was a needless long walk. From the photos you see the food looks appealing, and tastes great. If you think serving sizes appear slightly smaller for the prices you could be right. I think that the prices warrent more portions but just a tad. Noticeable enough for the 1 star hit, along with having to pay for each can of soda.

Solid Filipino food with authentic flavors. Everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. Friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Will be back.

Me and my brother had an amazing experience at Kabayan Grill with their friendly service and cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The food was delicious and full of authentic Filipino flavor—we’ll definitely be coming back!

The establishment is small and gets very busy. So come early or later to get a table. One entered, you are greeted and given a table. The prices are affordable and the food was delicious. Loved the BBQ skewers and the lumpias. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly.

Delicious food with excellent service. We ordered Crispy Pata, Kare kare, dinuguan, BBQ, sisig and pinakbet. Everything was excellent.
