Thank you very much for the Kamayan table catering, our guests were impressed, it was the highlight of our birthday event !! Don't hesitate to make an order from Tamis! Delicious food and beautiful presentation.

I visited with a group for dinner and they made us double tip (18% for a large group + 15%= 33% mandatory tip!). Every single member of the party asked the staff why the amount on the card reader was $10+ the receipt price, and they told us each time tips weren't included in the receipt even though it was clearly listed at 18% before taxes.

It can be hard to catch the server's attention as they are often turned away behind the bar, so it takes a long time to even ask for the cheques despite the restaurant being empty for closing.

I've been here a couple times and always thought the the food tasted pretty good despite wait (some of the items can be a hit-or-miss), and the servers were quite welcoming and accommodating. However after this experience we have no motivation to come back again.

I first had Tamis food at an event on Parliament Hill and it was delicious! I had to try some more of their dishes. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice and the food was delicious! It tasted exactly like the dishes my Nanay makes. The desserts were rich but and sweet. 10/10! I will be back to try more!

Amazing food, I need to try more and I love the deserts. The servers were so nice and helpful eith trying to figure out what was what. I would definetly recommend trying the kamayan platters as they are a great mix of things, but definetly need to try the rest of the menue too.

Pork hock was amazing here. Very crispy and tasty with the dipping sauces they provided. The spring rolls tasted really good and the halo halo was delicious.

The service was friendly here and the atmosphere inside the restaurant was great. They even sell pastries here too!

A great place to try Filo food! The mixed appetizer was great and my friend enjoyed the bbq chicken. However, this time the Kare Kare with beef was a bit disappointing as the peanut sauce was watery and beef was fatty. I think next time I will try the Kamayaan as that looks to be one of the best platters ^^

The service and atmosphere was excellent!

We came across Tamis last night while searching for somewhere to eat that was a bit different. This family restaurant was just that. Menu interesting, food different and delicious (and fairly healthy), service excellent. We enjoyed a nice glass of Chardonnay with our seafood Kamayan for 2 - a delicious platter of mussels, prawns, milkfish (eat it all, head included - sensational!), lettuce, papaya, tomato, bok choy, rice and accompanying sauces. A few slices of orange to finish. Plenty of food and welcoming service.

Dietary restrictions: One of us is gluten intolerant and the Kamayan seafood platter was perfect - pork spring rolls exchanged for bok choy with no fuss.

Very chill spot and would recommend the Kamayan and Sizzling sisig. We also ordered the crispy pork belly but didn’t care much for it. Still gave it 5 stars as the garlic rice (must get) more than made up for it!

Food was really great! Unique experience and flavour combos are something you don't taste everyday. Customer service was good, but could be better.
