Inihaw Charlton - (Near Greenwich, South East)

5 /5 Anne: Booked and visited after seeing the The Times feature. Amazing and authentic food enjoyed in a home style setting. 10/10. We had the kalamansi drink (jug), lechon kawali, crispy pata, pork bbq skewers, dinuguan, bulalo, rice and buko pandan salad. TJ was a great host and talked us through the menu when we said it was our first visit. Met his mum, uncle and dad (they emphasised the recipes came from dad). They advised that a new restaurant is due to open in Westbourne Park Rd. We are looking forward to visiting again!

5 /5 Mono Estate Inc: Inihaw really felt like a little taste of home, It was our second time visiting the Charlton branch, and once again, it still didn’t disappoint us. The Lechon Kawali and Crispy Pata were amazing, super CRISPY , full of flavor. The Kare-Kare and Tortang Talong were comforting and delicious, just like home-cooked food. The staff were warm and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. We’re really glad there’s Filipino food like this in London, it truly makes you feel like you’re back home in the Philippines.

4 /5 Joshua Banwell: Inihaw is a fantastic restaurant with flavourful and authentic home-cooked style Filipino food. The service was great, especially the young man front of house. He talked us through all the menu items and his service was excellent overall, very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious. One or two dishes were a little too salty for our taste (the Korean wings and the bbq skewers) but everything else was on point. We will definitely be back and recommending to all our friends in the area and beyond. The restaurant atmosphere is probably the only thing holding them back. A fresh lick of paint and some renovation work could really elevate the experience whilst still keeping the homely feel they are going for - just a tip. That said, we’re not fussy, as long as the food is good and the place is clean and well looked after we’re happy. Highly recommend!

5 /5 a haque: 100% lived up to it’s reputation. We had 2 mains, one side and 2 portions of garlic rice and were stuffed (unfortunately no room for dessert). Some of the potatoes were undercooked but the dish itself was flavourful and tender especially with the meat, slightly sweet flavours, not spicy at all but lots of depth of spices. Personally not a fan of the sweet pork belly skewers, but i wanted to try them - if you are a fan of the honey glazed taste and pork belly this is a dish for you! Our favourite was the pork sisig, the egg really brought the dish together creating a creamy and umami taste. The Calamansi is a must buy, refreshing and sweet, its my new favourite drink. Of course the food was the star of the show, but the customer service is truly what makes this place so special! Our server was the owner’s son (now manager), who was friendly and super helpful with selecting the items. They were kind, welcoming and genuine. Overall, a lovely family business serving delicious food. Definitely will be back again!

5 /5 S Y: Small restaurant 18 seats, visited on weekend lunch time lucky enough to get last table for 2 without waiting. Love the two drinks iced tea and calamansi very refreshing. Crispy pork belly is crispy and tender. Dishes are on the salty side so the garlic fried rice makes a perfect match.
