Tinuno rocked our taste buds with the Kamayan Feast for four! It had a yummy combo of milkfish, tilapia, BBQ pork, squid, shrimp, mussel, okra, eggplant, mango salad, and garlic rice. Each dish was expertly made, hitting the spot with amazing flavors. The cozy communal vibe and top-notch service made it even better. Tinuno serves up real Filipino goodness in a friendly setting.

Tinuno is a super fun communal dining experience! The experience begins with setting a large banana leaf as the base. You are given mango salad and orange slices to start. Then they lay garlic rice in the center before adding seafood, veggies and skewers. The assortment is varied and portions generous. It includes two types of fish, mussels, shrimp, squid, okra, eggplant, grilled pork and pork skewers. The presentation is impressive and the food also tasted good. My personal favorites were the squid, fish and garlic rice. We felt full and satisfied and would come back again.

Highly recommend for a first-time experience eating Filipino food as a table group - Kamayan.Opted for the milkfish as you choose between milkfish and tilapia for groups of 2 and it didn't disappoint!Milkfish, Pork skewer with some sweet sauce, and the Mango salad were the highlights of the meal and I would go again!Felt fun and enjoyable to eat with your hands haha!

The service at Tinuno was exceptional. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and eager to assist with any inquiries or recommendations. They effortlessly created a warm and inviting ambiance, making me feel right at home. Their knowledge of the menu was impressive, and they gladly provided explanations and suggestions for those unfamiliar with Filipino cuisine.Now, let's move on to the star of the show--the food at Tinuno. The standout dish that caught my attention was, without a doubt, the Kare-kare. This traditional Filipino stew, made with tender oxtail and a delectable peanut sauce, was an absolute triumph. The oxtail was cooked to perfection, falling off the bone and melting in my mouth. The peanut sauce was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, harmonizing beautifully with the accompanying vegetables. The dish was served with a side of shrimp paste, adding a delightful salty contrast. It was a true symphony of tastes that left me craving for more.

Double date night! Haven't been to tinuno before but I have been to other Filipino restaurants in the past. This location is tucked away on Howard street just outside of sherborne station. Small, cozy place, lots of take out orders as well. The staff were very nice. We ordered the kamayan dinner and it was delicious! I love the layout of the meal. Definitely will come back again!

Amazing! I saw a picture of the kamayan feast on instagram and needed to try. I loved it, we were given the choice between milk fish and tilapia, we chose milk fish. It's $25 per person and you get gloves to dig in. My favourite was the pork belly. I'd highly recommend Tinuno to everyone!

My first time trying kamayan or boodle fight. Everything was pretty good except the fish was a little over-cooked and dry. The garlic rice was amazing. The calamansi juice was super good and refreshing on a hot day.This is a foodie place, great for meeting up with a group of friends, but not romantic. If you are going for the kamayan, the more the merrier. Good service. we went early on a Friday night, no reservations, and didn't have to wait, but, it filled up fast.

Got the Kamayan Feast at $25 per person! This spread is a seafood and meat lovers' dream. I really liked how flavourful everything was, especially the fish and shrimp. Their chili sauce was also really good! Their garlic rice is unlimited but I didn't know that until I left :( I came on a Friday so the waiters were all very busy. The restaurant itself is pretty small so definitely recommend making a reservation or calling ahead to reserve a table.

Ordered the Kamayan-style set with a friend and since it was just the 2 of us, we chose the milkfish. I really loved this experience because I got to eat with my hands LOL gloves are provided. The food was delicious but some were a bit burnt like the milkfish. It was a lot of food for 2 people and other reviewers mentioned there is unlimited garlic rice but this was not known for my party. Tinuno is a really small establishment and kind of a hole in the wall. I feel like there weren't really any tourists eating here - mostly locals.Took a star off because there was a very rude server who made eye contact with my party several times but purposely ignored our requests - such as taking our order, refilling our water, etc. She walked around with rbf lol

I had some a great time here! We got the kamyan feast! The food was all very delicious, and the rice was unlimited! It was a lot of fun to eat with our hands. You also don't need to have a minimum party number to enjoy the feast! It's $25 per person so you can even enjoy this as a smaller group! I felt that the fried dessert could have been more freshly made. Overall I really enjoyed the experience!

This is a cozy little restaurant serving authentic Philippine foods. Server is very friendly, we ordered kamayan for two with milk fish , butter garlic rice on the bottom is very tasty and it is unlimited refill. Also ordered pork sisig, very nice, just portion wise is a bit small. Deserts we got leech flan and a drink, both of them are overly sweet for me. Compared to before, their price is almost doubled, but still a nice place .

Tastes like food you could cook at home. Nothing exceptional about the flavour. Unique dining experience eating with your hands. My experience wasn't bad. This just isn't something I would back for in terms of taste profile.
