Best Filipino Restaurants in Arthurs Seat

Service was friendly, helpful and speedy ! Food was exceptional, highly recommend

Absolutely perfect. Food, service, drink, atmosphere and banter

Tucked away only a few steps off the main road in Fitzroy, Palay is a FLAWLESS restaurant serving classic & modern Filipino food & drink. With the warmest hosts, impeccable vibes, and core memories to be found. The tasting menu is a must-have, and the Ube cocktail was so so yummy. Will definitely be coming again, even just to see the lovely faces of the staff.

Perched above @askal.melb in the CBD, @inuman.melb Cocktail Bar is Melbourne’s first dedicated Filipino-inspired cocktail bar. The name “Inuman” comes from the Tagalog word for a drinking session and that’s exactly the energy here: shared plates, flowing drinks, and great vibes. Their $65 “Sips & Snacks” session from 5pm–8:30pm includes two hours of free-flowing beers, wines and spritzes paired with a delicious grazing menu, making it one of the best excuses to stay out a little longer. The food we had: • Boy Bawang, Salt & Vinegar saltbush (tasty crunchy corn snack) • Hot Fries with Masarap seasoning & 7000-Island sauce (some of the best hot chips around!) • Pad De Melbourne & Latik butter (Just fill my veins with this 🤣 omg the most delicious bread I’ve had in my life!) • Chicken & Mushroom Siomai, Toyomansi, Pinipig chilli crisp (Filipino dumplings?! HELL YES…honestly didn’t want to share with the parents 💀🤣) • Crispy Fried Duck Leg “nuggets” with Banana Ketchup (Addictively delicious!) The staff were super friendly, great R&B/Hip-Hip/House music playing on the speakers, drinks were flowing and the food was absolutely delicious (I’m still dreaming about the Pan De Melbourne & Latik Butter…* insert Homer Simpson drool GIF here* 🤤😂) Took my parents here last Saturday and we all enjoyed ourselves so much. Highly recommend you visit Inuman, such an awesome spot in the CBD!

As someone who appreciates Filipino food, here and in the Philippines, I have no issues giving this restaurant a five star rating. My only concern is that it may become too popular and I can't get a seat! Salamat po champions! I look forward to dining there next time!!!
