   I love Isla’s! It’s a long time Parkdale community treasure. My parents came to visit me for christmas from my hometown and though they grew up in Toronto when they were young, they are in their 70s now and don’t know where to go for lovely places to eat and enjoy themselves, as the city has changed a lot My mother worked for a long time at Womens College Hospital and then Mount Sinai and had many Filipino friends with whom she used to have pot luck dinners, which I did not know. She was so excited to have lumpia and pancit again! My lomi egg soup was incredible, and my dad’s short ribs were perfection and we all enjoyed the fresh oysters and empanadas My brother died last year, and this was our first christmas together since his passing and you made it so special. We will all be coming back ♥️

   Love this restaurant. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. The food is delicious. Great list of cocktails and mocktails. Best part is, during dinner, diners (and staff) can participate in karaoke right at their table. Makes for a really fun and unique experience. Different diners from opposite ends of the restaurant would partake in a duet..Had a great time! Oh, and the desserts were amazing

   My new favourite restaurant! From the minute my friends and I walked in, the staff were friendly and throughout the night the staff ensured my friends and I were satisfied with our experience there. You can also tell that all the customers were either returning customers or new customers that will be returning back. The food was delicious, we had kare kare bagnet, chicken bbq, ukoy salad, and cassava cake. If you want to have good time and good food; come here!

   I recently visited iSLAS Filipino BBQ & Bar in Toronto, and it was an unforgettable culinary experience! From the moment you walk in, the warm ambiance and friendly staff make you feel right at home. This is the go-to spot for anyone wanting to explore authentic Filipino flavors with a modern twist.

   Great value but wouldn’t say it’s the most authentic Filipino food.

   I’ve come here many times before and usually always do the Boodeli feast. It’s so good every time, and staff is always friendly.

    We had high hopes for the sisig, but it could’ve used more heat (sili/chili) and onions. The kare kare was delicious and made me think of my mom’s cooking. Had the Samargarita and Ube Colada cocktails. The Samargarita was a tasty take on a margarita and the ube colada was good too, but lacked ube flavor I was looking for. I was hoping it was like the one I’d had in El Nido, but alas, fell short. The service is what you’d expect at a restaurant in the Philippines, you signal when you need assistance, but if you’re looking for your typical American type of service (can’t speak to Canadian restaurants as we mainly did ethnic restaurants on our trip), not quite up to par.
