This place is ok except for the fact that they run out of Lechon every afternoon. I don’t get it? If Lechon is such a popular dish why not make sure they always have some on hand? I tried what was the 3 rd attempt to get Lechon and again they ran out with the explanation that they only get them on Thursdays? I didn’t understand that or misunderstood but all I heard was only on Thursdays?.. Guess I’ll be going to Café Moda from now on for my Lechon they ALWAYS seem to have it on hand all through the night too!

‘Sarap? No… Prepare to pay more too, neat! Plus, let us clarify that this is not a relocated las Vegas Boulevard location… This is the original spot and the strip location was an off shoot. The wife is a born and raised pinoy and I’m a Canadian who moved to the USA. She loves the convenience but the quality of this buffet is lacking vs what is available just a few blocks away at nanay glorias. The issue that I personally have is the price of some of the smaller items hon can take out that are not part of the buffet but instead widely available in China Town(as in 25 yards away in the grocery store.) Don’t charge me 30%+ more for baked goods that aren’t even imported but instead baked here in the USA vs what everywhere else charges. There are better buffets where you can actually serve yourself, but if you took a bus or walked from the strip, this is passable. Simply focus on freshly made food and buy your snacks at the grocery store in the same commercial development.

If you are in Chinatown and want Filipino food, please go somewhere else this was probably the most bottom of the barrel Filipino food I’ve ever had in my life. Disgusting and under seasoned.

I went here ten years ago and it was bad. Yesterday, I thought I would give them another chance. The food was disappointing. The pork sinigang was over cooked and dry. The rice was crunchy. I will never go here again. I also bought sweet rice wrapped in banana leaves and it was over priced and disgusting. You can go to the 99 Ranch market and get better food.

Good food. But the cashier/server doesnt seem so happy. I’ve been here twice and same attitude. It would get 4 stars, if they had an attitude change. i was hoping they were just having a bad day the first tym, but I dont think they like what theyre doing. Prolly not gonna come back unless I am dying to have filipino food. And I love filipino food!

Kapit Bahay moved to Chinatown. They are no longer in Hawaiian marketplace.(As of 5÷20÷2014) I am mourning. Lol. I can’t walk from my hotel and get my nom nom on. What Asian options do I have? Aha! Dumpling & Noodle house :) it’s not jungle food but it’s suffice until they open another Filipino eatery that’s walking distance. :)

Came here for lunch accidentally after a supposedly lunch with friends who invited us to their time share building which was around the area. After looking around for for almost an hour(nobody seems to know them) We gave up and decided to go back to our hotel . We walked pass this Filipino restaurant right on the mall entrance & decided to give it a try. It looked pretty decent & clean & the staff seem quite friendly. There is a buffet alright but choices are limited .and since it was already pass 2:00 pm my hunger pangs are beginning to react.. My friend & I tried their combo. 2 Kinds of dishes with rice for $ 6.99. I had the Pork Adobo & Pampano Sinigang. It was not the best but I was hungry … I finished it in a flash !!. That’s probably why there was just one table occupied. My friend ordered the Pinakbet & Paksiw. Nothing really compares to that Kusina ni Lorraine Buffet which to me is one of the best Filipino buffets in Vegas so far. Would I go back to this Place? Probably not !!

My friends recommended this place to me the last time I was in Vegas, but it was closed when I checked it out. I was able to check it out this past weekend when I was in Vegas again. The place is a hole in the wall, and it looks a bit dingy. It is right next to an Asian massage parlor. It seems to be a family run restaurant. The lady who served me was very nice and friendly. She kept on asking me questions whether i tried Filipino food before, and she provided recommendations. For the amount that they give you, the price you pay is awesome. You get a nice bang for your buck. THe chicken adobo is boneless so that’s a plus, and the gravy is sooo good to mix in the rice with. I also tried the beef stew, which she recommended to me. it was peanutty and yummy. I wish I ordered with a bit more spice, but I’m not sure if Flip food has spicy dishes? I’m not sure. I wouldn’t mind coming back here again for some cheap grub when I’m back in Vegas since it is walking distance on the strip to MGM, Aria, etc… PS — the food didn’t look appetizing on the steamer trays since it looked all dried up, but it was still pretty tasty and moist.

I have come to the conclusion that there are no Filipino vegetarians. They do have vegetable dishes here, but all made with fish or meat stocks. Located in the Hawaiian Village Kapit Bahay offers authentic Filipino cuisine. The shop itself is warm and inviting, the food is fresh and kept well. The woman at the counter offered many samples to my friends. Reviews from the others were that the Pork Adobo and Chicken Curry dishes were good. My Filipino friend thought the Halo Halo was good as well. Prices were very reasonable for fresh, authentic food right on the strip. So while there was no vegetarian options, I do like saying Halo Halo.

Place is walking distance from the MGM Grand… on the strip. Plenty of choices to choose from.1 or 2 item combos… I got Pork Adobo with rice. The meat was tender… a little on the oily side tho. There’s so much food to choose from on the strip, but I had to give this place a go run. I liked it and will return. Plus… the lady behind the counter was nice…

During the middle of our trip to Vegas Nancy was craving some rice(it’s an Asian thing), so we went to Kapit Bahay, a little hole-in-the-wall located on the far right end of the Hawaiian Marketplace(HM is between the Harley Davidson Café and MGM Grand). We both ordered the 2 item combo + rice: pusit and sinagang for Nancy, menudo and picadillo for me. The food was standard Filipino fare, nothing great, but not bad either. Nancy did like the Pusit(little squid).The food would rate 2& ½ stars, but since we paid less than $ 20 for both meals and two cans of soda, that merits bringing up the overall rating to 3 stars. Not too many places on the Strip that you can get a decent meal for two people for under $ 20. Don’t expect too much with the service, it is completely utilitarian. Kind of like a cafeteria.

Be wary of this place, they recently had a C rating for the health inspection. The food is very greasy, the woman is very unpolite, and the rice is not firm, it’s mushy. After hearing about the bad health inspection rating, I know I will NEVER eat here again.

REVIEWFORSHAVEDICEONLY! If you’re looking for shaved ice on the strip, this is the place. It’s a hidden gem in the Hawaiian Marketplace, inside Kapit Bahay. Prices are extremely reasonable, a small is $ 3 and a regular is $ 4. With your order you can add 3 toppings! The quality of the ice and the flavors are spot on, and the owner doesn’t gip you with the quantity of ice, it’s definitely more than enough

Wow, harsh reviews! I found the guy behind the counter helpful. He steered me in the right direction and I got a meal I really enjoyed. BBQ’d tilapia and Chicken Adobo were very tasty.

Pan fried fish, chicken(looked like it had curry sauce), and pork with two sides of rice = $ 13! It was probably the cheapest meal I had in Vegas and it was good. I only fish their food was labeled since I am not familiar with Filipino food. Now if someone came in and was not familiar with Asian food at all… he/she would be in trouble.

Kare-kare, menudo, fresh lumpia, arroz caldo, siopao, leche flan… all great Filipino dishes that you’ll find on Kapit Bahay’s website… …but won’t find at the restaurant… at least when I was there. Admittedly, I probably got a little too excited to finally try some non-family-made Filipino cuisine, and the location – right on the Las Vegas Strip across from the City Center – was super-convenient. I ended up with a disappointing experience – getting a plate of rice with pancit and pork adobo and a side of longaniza. The longaniza was okay, but the pancit and adobo were pretty unexciting. This, with a can of Coke, was about $ 10.50 – a little pricey for the relatively small portions you get.

Saturday morning after a long and enduring night of partying, they wanted some filipino breakfast. It was around 11, and we assumed that they would have a full arsenal of breakfast food since, well, vegas doesn’t wake up until then anyway. They had the lunch items out, absent any common breakfast items like fried eggs, garlic rice etc. They did have langonisa and tocino though. We got a combo which had lechon kawali,(yeah for breakfast, I know) and langonisa, and regular rice. The portioning was small, and for a pricey fee of $ 8.00 The only aspect of the meal I thoroughly enjoyed was the langonisa(am I spelling this correctly), everything else was just ok.

Mmmm… pussit. Love me some purple squid. Had some chicken caldereta too and it was good. My mom enjoyed the sinigang and fried tilapia. Kind of small portions for the price but I guess it’s a little more expensive because it’s on the strip. A good selection of to go Filipino food. Place is clean but nothing fancy. Free parking in the back, enter on the small lot right before the Hawaiian Marketplace.

I found it surprising when I saw this one day walking to work at PH. A Flipino spot on the strip? Why yes, in the Hawaiian marketplace. I get tired of the stuff in my work so I grab some to-go for my lunch one day. It was early so I got the«breakfast» items– Tocino and Tapa and was able to get garlic rice. Decent and hit the spot. Have also had their lechon, beef steak, kare kare, BBQ sticks, torta talong/eggplant, fried milkfish/bangus, etc and it’s pretty standard and decent, but I’ve had better. Still the location was definitely appealing. Come here if youre on the strip looking for«different» cheap eats, but if you have a car go take a drive to some other Filipino spots off strip.
