The best bulalo!!! Will definitely be back again.
I am from Nova Scotia and visited friends from Calgary. We went for a long drive and came across this Filipino restaurant in Red deer to end our day trip. Thanks to Trixie & Divine for a great dining experience. Of course, the Chef and whole kitchen cook authentic Filipino food to the highest level. "Laing" was savory and creamy, topped with chilli for option to make it spicy. "Sisig" OmG , its hard to justify by just words - you have to really try! Crispy pata was so crispy , so good with of coursedippingsauce vinegar on its side. Service was not great but EXCELLENT! Trixie & Divine was just amazing. They really took care of us and did an extra mile. Did great suggestions. Constantly checking on us. Place was clean too from table to washroom. Spotless! Of course, THE FOOD was delicious - LAING , SISIG & CRISPY PATA! Chef and kitchen team, you did a great food out there. Keep it up! That was a very pleasant dining experience by far. You guys should be proud of what you do!!! THANK YOU! 5 🌟
I appreciate the food that we ordered at Barkada Grill. This is not our first time here, but it's our first time ordering @mike_life_travels comfort food. The saltiness and sourness of sinigang is how Mike wanted for his sinigang. KARENDERYA style ☺️ They did not skimp with their ingredients. They used pork liempo instead of pork kasim or pige. As a bonus, they even gave us free sabaw to take home because we couldn't finish the whole order. The monggo with fried bangus is another delight. I seldom fry fish at home, and whenever I cook ginisang monggo, it's always partnered with something fried like bangus or galungong. Thanks to our local store in Edmonton, we can buy fish and have them clean and fry it too. The BBQ and Pansit combo that I ordered is very sulit to the last bite. For under $20, I have 2 sticks of pork BBQ (or chicken), 2 spring rolls, and a good portion of Pansit Bihon-Canton. I had to order a side dish of plain rice because of the sinigang and besides.. Being Asian and Filipino, who does not eat their pansit with rice? 😂 Although some may taste the food maalat "salty", especially if their customer is someone like my dad whose taste bud is always "ang alat or ang tamis" naman nyan 😆 🤣 but at least we didn't have to eat the sinigang with patis and sili which is a common condiment for sinigang. Anyways, thank you for the food. There was a minor mishap with my order, that's why we had to wait longer than expected, but the food was worth the wait. ☺️
I LOVE this place. My girlfriend and I were in town and were craving some Filipino food and thankfully, Red Deer has this lovely gem of a restaurant which satisfied our needs. We had the pork liempo, beef sinigang, and garlic rice and I 100% recommend all dishes. The only (minor) concern I’d like to address is that the sinigang wasn’t as sour as were hoping for but that’s entirely based in preference as it was still very delicious. Shoutout to the lovely team at Barkada Grill for a lovely lunch, we’ll for sure be back if we’re ever in town.
We ordered chicken nuggets (we got chicken strips instead) and kwek kwek. Both foods were undercooked. At first we had 3 pcs of chicken tenders and we barely ate the 1pc because we noticed it was undercooked so we told the server about it and she said she was gonna replace it. The chicken was served again but there were only 2pcs and it was overcooked like almost hard. It was for a toddler. The server knew that. They never replaced the food, they just put it back to the fryer and overcooked it eventhough we touched the food already. Same thing with kwek kwek, batter was not cooked. Please be careful with the food you serve especially for the kids food. Also, please fix your menu. The chicken you gave to us was not chicken nuggets, it was chicken strips.
CRAVING FOR FILIPINO CUISINE!? Say no more! They serve decent Filipino food and taste like home for sure! Restaurant is clean even the bathroom and cozy ambient! Staffs are friendly and always have that filipino hospitality! Thank you for all your hardwork!
The Filipino food was delicious. We ordered Lechon Kawali which was cooked to perfection. We also ordered Sinigang na Baboy with the right sour feeling. We loved eating our lunch here.
Delicious Filipino food 💯 The servings are huge, can actually be shared by two people. The garlic rice is excellent! We had sisilog, beef pares, and tapsilog. They’re all really good, just a little tough on some of the tapas. But still, overall, they make really good food. Hoping to be back again when we come back to Red Deer! I would give the sisilog a 10/10 rate. It’s a must try. 🫶🏻
Local. Reliable. Genuine. Great food and staff.
Very good experience for Filipino Cuisine.
Slow service, our spring rolls was burnt and they forgot the sauce for our chicken barbecue
I love the taro bubble tea and kare kare Parking: Centarl Food : 5/5 |
The food was excellent, the service was a bit off but not horrible.
Great food and customer service
Good food,good prices but I came here to get a halo-halo and Im very satisfied, thank you.
Please change your recipe to pork rice porridge, the taste is really bad, sour and very strong taste. The rice porridge is still ok. central and north same taste. Other than that decent food anyway. Just to let you know, right?
Food is good, big serving
Ordered Bulalo but the good that was delivered, the broth were spilled in the bag. The food was handed to us like it was garbage and the delivery guy was even mad when asked why the food seh delivered was messy.
Awesome filipino food
Food
I go to this place once or twice a month and have been visiting for the past 3 years. The service is so good and I don t have to wait long. The waiters remember my order every time and the food and drinks are perfect. 10/10 would recommend.
Loved their chicken skin especially when it still hot. So crunchy!
Yummy foods, great service, affordable prices. So many stuff to choose.
Top notch food! Wow spring rolls and pancit were the best Ive ever had! Cant wait to try other dishes on the menu
Small selection of vegetarian food
so good
It was our first time dining at Barkada Grills and it was great. The food is great, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere of the place is pleasant. Craving satisfied missing Filipino dishes .
Food is fantastic! Have been a few times and always very impressed. Giving 4 stars because last time we went the service was awful, and the lady was trying to overcharge us by just rounding up I m assuming to increase her tip
The food is delicious and yummy cook specialized for your order. Its nice and hot when they serve it. The service is fast and friendly.
Really tasty , top notch service, friendly staff. Wheelchair accessibility: No bariers Food : 5/5 |
Great staff, amazing food and atmosphere.
My favorite!
I had the Thai fried rice because they were out of green curry, yellow curry and red curry and it was ok but the chicken pieces were disgusting just fat gnarl and skin chunks, Its probably to save money
Warm staff and the Best Buko Pandan!
the best filipino restaurant in Canada!
Delicious food, fried fish was amazing, definitely going back!
Awesome Staff!!
Amazing place and great food. friendly and accommodating
Delicious food and awesome ambience with very nice staff.
The food there is delicious and they have tons of options. The seats are comfortable and the establishment is kept fairly tidy. I didnt have to wait long for my order either. I ended up ordering 2 appetizers and a meal which cost less than $40.
Great Filipino food. Try the Turon with ice cream!
Delicious meal, lots of choices!! And the dessert was amazing.
My favorite place to eat in Red Deer...good food and excellent service.
If I could only give zero star, I would. First of all, the foods are not that great. I have been to other Filipino restaurants and theirs were mediocre. Secondly, the service is disgusting and awful. The servers finger was inside the bowl when she was serving the foods since she didnt use a tray. She was also extremely rude. I say by rude, she would put utensils, bowls, etc. recklessly as if she was not happy that there are customers. ALTHOUGH, she was extra nice to tables of Filipinas with non-Filipino husbands (caucasians specifically).
Terrible customer service, the server with brown hair and thick makeup is so rude and so angry for no reason and its pretty clear that she hates her job so i dont understand why you guys still have her but the sinigang was good but thats about it.
Great food always.
Great food! Great prices! Great staff! Highly recommend this place! Will come back again for sure! Didn t know this gem existed.
Awesome place. Love it
I like their food here
Rude to the customers
It can get pretty busy. But food is good.
Amazing food
POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Go up north, better customer service and food quality.
Food is great, 1 serving is good for two already, staff are friendly and the place is clean. I would certainly recommend.
Great food and service. Very fast.
Great Filipino cuisine.
Hair on my food. They didnt care
This used to be my go to place for Filipino food but it went downhill. Lately I ve been ordering for pick up and they always give you a time but they are never on time. Always end up waiting 10-20 more minutes. PLUS, they never had Banana Con Yelo. It s been a year? I don t know why it s even on the menu.
My mom and her friends went here a few weeks ago and ordered their halo halo to be served after everyones eaten. It came watery with barely any ice, and they pointed it out and the server gave them attitude and clapped back pointing out that there was ice even though it was very little... I dont think any other restaurants would be that rude to its customers.
Excellent food, friendly staff, and quick service.
The place is ok, our server is nice. Food wise not bad.
Everything was made from the heart. Its really a taste from home. Our first time and will always be our favorite in Red deer! The atmosphere, the service, the people, the place (rated 10 out of 10)
The pancit is too salty. Kare-kare, bopis, squid, lumpia shanghai, lechon kawali all taste average.
I ordered a 2 bulalo for take out and so disappointed when it reached home its more on bones and soup, likely a boiled bones no meat at all.
Love going here for Filipino Food!
My wife wanted to try this restaurant really badly, and we dont regret it at all. Must try if you never be there before.
We been waiting for the our order for more than 2 hours and it didn t come
The best filipino restaurant I have ever been to. Worth your money. The restaurant atmosphere is not your typical filipino restaurant. The food is great, and cooked with love and passion. Staff are great. Best choice ever
Adobo Special for $9.99 is an amazing lunch deal!
Very good ambiance. Very tasty food. Good customer service. Clean washrooms. The achara is the best with their barbecue. I will come back to eat here whenever we visit red deer again.
First time for the Barkada. Big fan of Filipino Food and they didnt disappoint me. 15 bucks later and I had pancit bihon, 2 spring rolls and 2 chicken skewers. All was delicious . Very friendly and I found my new lunch spot in Red Deer. Great job folks!!!
Love the food and the service!! Very kid friendly! Large portions and varied menu.
Excellent service!
Pretty good food and service. Second location of the same restaurant in Red Deer. Much cleaner and better ambience than the first one in Lions plaza. Food seemed to be better but some dishes are so-so. Service is usually good.
This restaurant is not known by enough people. Everytime I meet new people, I need to tell them about this place. Great prices, great services and great food. The ambiance might not be that great, but the food sure is, if you like Filipino food! Was at a function that brought in a ton of Filipino dishes from this place. Loved all of them, especially the pancit and some of the pork dishes.
They have Good Filipino dishes.
Good food fast service and the staff is funny
Such a fraud. It used to be a nice place when they just opened, but now second time I m ordering by myself they hear by voice that I m not a filipina and trying to put less toppings in the dishes meanwhile prices are the same. I know how it should be, because every time my Filipino husband or friends order there it s ok. Second time I feel disappointed and disrespected. Such a meager attitude and this is disgusting.
Neah
Favorite Filipino restaurant to dine out here in Red Deer City, Alberta! I love their service, very respectful and the friendly servers often offer recommendations on what to order from the menu. They serve very quick as well. I love their sisig (chopped crispy grilled pork with ginger, lemon, chilies & a fried egg topping) and their fish singing (sour fish soup). My wife loves their fried daing na bangus (butterfly filleted milkfish marinated in garlic, coconut vinegar, salt & chili) and Kare-kare (beef oxtail with sweet/spicy peanut sauce with steamed eggplant/string beans/banana flower, bock choy & with a shrimp paste dip). Im not even going to start with the desserts, hahaha.... (halo-halo... leche flan...) Well return here to get our fill of Pinoy food. Recommended : Pinoy-style sweet spaghetti, fried Shanghai rolls, traditional Pinoy pancit, pansit palabok (recommended), papaitan.
I love their food!!!
I really enjoyed eating here! I went for lunch and the Food was very good. The menu has so many items I wanted to try! I will be back! I recommend trying the Filipino BBQ
The service here was amazing. I don t recall the last time I experienced this type of service. Attentive, informative and going that extra mile to be sure we had everything we needed. We were offered suggestions on what to order and were not disappointed... except for the Halo Halo. I don t think that s really our thing, but the experience was great. :)
I like the food here feels like home

Good food. A bit dry on the rice
I usually never write reviews but Im in love. Huge portions, good prices, amazing food and loving staff. Fries were real fries and the dried ribs were amazing. Dried but also moist to taste loved every minute of it.
Great food. great people. Awesome experience.
Nice place and the food was delicious.
Great!
Staff there were very kind and accommodating but when we asked for chicken wings they said that they didnt have the sauce for the wings and then when we asked forthe pad thai without onions it came with onions overall both meals that we had the food wasnt very good there was no flavor in the soup we had been to another location of this restaurant and everything was fantastic so we just assumed this place would be the same but unfortunately they arent run by the same people we wont be back
Seems like fairly authentic Phillipino food but Im not an expert. Food quality was reasonable and the service was decent.
Very good and nice place
Serves authentic Filipino cuisine within a reasonable price. Big serving good for big groups or families
