The list
- 1Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 69-14 Roosevelt Ave, Woodside, NY 11377
A Pampanga homestyle kitchen that has been feeding the Little Manila strip under the 7 train since 1992. The menu runs deep on the classics, sinigang and kare-kare and silog plates, plus a pig head sisig that arrives still spitting on its cast iron plate.
It is the benchmark every other Filipino spot in Woodside gets measured against, and after three decades it still cooks like a Pampanga home kitchen.
Order Sizzling pig head sisig
Order the sinigang na baboy with plain rice on the side, because the sour tamarind broth is the point and it feeds two easily.
- 2Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 40-06 70th St, Woodside, NY 11377
A Kapampangan barbecue house on 70th Street that has been threading pork onto skewers since the mid 90s. The kamayan feast arrives spread over banana leaves with grilled meats, lumpia, and whole milkfish, no plates and no forks.
Pound for pound it is one of the best meal deals in New York, charcoal smoke included.
Order Kamayan feast with BBQ pork skewers and calamansi sisig
Round up a group and call ahead for the kamayan feast, since the banana leaf spread is built for a table of four or more.
- 3Woodside · $$ · 46 St-Bliss St (7) · 49-10 Queens Blvd, Woodside, NY 11377
The party end of Woodside's Filipino scene, a Queens Blvd grill where live music and karaoke share the room with the food. The kitchen holds its own with lemon spiked pork belly sisig, proper adobo, and a kare-kare built on house made shrimp paste.
Nowhere else in the neighborhood does dinner slide into a birthday party this naturally.
Order Pork belly sisig
Go on a weekend night if you want the band and the microphone, or early on a weeknight if you just want the kare-kare in peace.
- 4Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 69-16 Roosevelt Ave, Woodside, NY 11377
Renee's next door neighbor on Roosevelt Ave, cooking the same canon with a bit more polish and none less soul. Weekends bring live bands and karaoke, and the calamares gigantes land at nearly every table.
The caramelized sisig crowned with a runny egg proves polish and pork fat can coexist.
Order Caramelized pork sisig topped with egg
Hit a weekend night for the live band, and split the calamares gigantes because the squid really is giant.
- 5Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 69-02 Roosevelt Ave, Woodside, NY 11377Map ↗verified 6w ago
A bakery and turo-turo counter anchoring the corner of the Little Manila strip. Pandesal comes out of the oven in waves and sells out, served plain, toasted, or stuffed, with silog plates and adobo waiting on the hot side.
The pandesal here is the best argument on Roosevelt Ave for getting out of bed before noon.
Order Hot pandesal, plus a brazo de Mercedes to go
Come in the morning, because the fresh pandesal runs out and an afternoon batch is never guaranteed.
- 6Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 40-09 69th St, Woodside, NY 11377
The Woodside outpost of the Manila founded fried chicken chain that generations of Filipino families grew up on, planted right in Little Manila. The signature bird goes into the fryer unbattered so the skin stays thin and crackling, with crispy pata, pancit, and sisig backing it up.
The lechon kawali sisig quietly outshines the famous chicken, which is saying something.
Order Lechon kawali sisig
Order the lechon kawali sisig alongside the chicken instead of choosing between them, and pace yourself with a halo halo.
- 7Woodside · $ · 61 St-Woodside (7) · 59-21 Roosevelt Ave, Woodside, NY 11377
The first New York location of a West Coast Filipino bakery chain that has been baking since 1994. Hot pandesal comes straight from the oven, the pork adobo pandesal eats like a proper sandwich, and the case holds kakanin like puto bumbong.
The pork adobo pandesal, savory and soft, is the smartest handheld breakfast on this end of Roosevelt Ave.
Order Pork adobo pandesal
Ask what just came out of the oven and buy that, since pandesal is a different food while it is still warm.
- 8Woodside · $$ · 46 St-Bliss St (7) · 49-12 Queens Blvd, Woodside, NY 11377Map ↗verified 6w ago
A small sit down room two doors from Tito Rad's on Queens Blvd, quietly turning out kamayan feasts on banana leaves. The menu covers the canon, from sizzling sisig and chicken BBQ to crispy pata and pancit palabok.
It is the consistent, no drama neighborhood pick that locals name in the same breath as the big three.
Order Kamayan feast
Call ahead for the kamayan spread so the kitchen can build the banana leaf layout before you sit down.
- 9Woodside · $$ · 69 St (7) · 68-28 Roosevelt Ave, Woodside, NY 11377Map ↗verified 6w ago
A turo-turo steam table grill on the core Little Manila block, where you point at the trays and walk out with a heavy plate. Sisig, bulalo, tortang talong, and kare-kare rotate through, cooked like somebody's tita is running the line.
It is the cheapest honest plate of home cooking on the strip, and the regulars treat it like a second kitchen.
Order Sisig and bulalo
Go at lunch when the steam trays turn over fastest, and get the bulalo if you see it in the rotation.
