When I swing by Casa Reyes Bistro Filipino in Greenhills, you bet I’m getting my hands on two must-haves: Dinuguan and Chicken BBQ. They’re my go-to’s every time. This spot’s menu is like a culinary tour of the Philippines, offering up all sorts of tasty treats. Sure, not every dish is gonna blow your mind, but let me tell you, the service totally makes up for it. It’s the kind of place where even if your meal isn’t a home run, you’ll still leave with a smile thanks to the awesome folks taking care of you.

Ambiance at Casa Reyes, Greenhills

Casa Reyes has this awesome vibe that’s totally Filipino-inspired, like you’re hanging out in your grandma’s house but with a funky twist. Picture antique furniture, old magazine cutouts, and posters all over the place – it’s like a blast from the past.

Before the whole pandemic mess, this restaurant was always packed, especially at lunchtime. You practically had to elbow your way to a seat! But when I popped in recently, it was still bustling, though I did spot a few empty chairs scattered around. No biggie, though – plenty of folks were still kicking it. Casa Reyes definitely keeps that lively atmosphere alive, even with a few gaps in the crowd. So if you’re up for a taste of nostalgia and some good company, this spot’s got your back.

Food Quality

I’ve had the pleasure of sampling a variety of dishes at Casa Reyes, and several of them have become my absolute favorites. However, not every dish resonated with my palate – a few didn’t quite hit the mark for me. But that’s perfectly fine because variety is the spice of life. Casa Reyes offers something for everyone, whether you prefer classic dishes or are in the mood for a food adventure. So don’t worry if a particular dish isn’t to your liking – keep exploring, and you’ll discover your personal favorites.

Here are my favorites:

Crispy Dinuguan (405 PHP)

Chicken Barbecue, 3 pcs (335 PHP)

• Crispy Dinuguan: This dish features dinuguan, a Filipino savory stew made with pig’s blood, vinegar, and various spices, served with a twist – it’s prepared in a crispy style, adding a crunchy texture to the traditional flavors.
• Chicken Barbecue: Casa Reyes offers a classic chicken barbecue dish, featuring tender, marinated chicken skewers grilled to perfection. It’s a popular choice among patrons seeking a flavorful and satisfying meal.

• Truffle Pasta with Kesong Puti & Bacon Bits: For those craving pasta with a Filipino twist, this dish combines creamy truffle-infused pasta with kesong puti (native white cheese) and crispy bacon bits, offering a blend of rich flavors and textures.

Service Quality

I want to extend a heartfelt shoutout to our server at the time, Kuya Allan – he was exceptional! Despite the place being packed and our strong desire to dine there, he made sure we were accommodated. I often struggle with remembering names, but his outstanding service ensured we won’t forget him. He went above and beyond to make our experience truly top-notch. A big thanks to him for making our visit extra special.

Final Thoughts

As always, my visit was delightful. I highly recommend Casa Reyes Bistro Filipino to anyone interested in trying Filipino cuisine, especially their dinuguan and chicken BBQ.
