"This casual spot in the Heights blends traditional Filipino comfort food with a modern twist. Menu highlights include classic chicken adobo, sizzling pork sisig, pancit canton, and fusion favorites like crispy Spam with musubi sauce and queso-covered tots topped with longganisa, a Filipino sausage. End your meal with halo-halo shaved ice or crispy turon egg rolls filled with jackfruit and banana, finished with ice cream and coconut syrup. Don’t miss the pandan sweet tea, a green-hued drink that complements any meal here." - Marcy de Luna
"A Heights Filipino restaurant perfects a banana ketchup made from pureed banana, spices, vinegar, serrano pepper, and purple carrot extract for color, yielding a tangy, sweet, and spicy sauce that complements nearly everything; available in original spicy and curry flavors—single bottles $8 or a three-pack for $24." - Brittany Britto Garley
"This Heights restaurant fully displays Filipino flavors, meaning pandan is a given. Diners can enjoy the very green pandan sweet tea along with savory dishes like its classic, sizzling platters of crispy pork and lumpia. Or opt for brunch, where ube and pandan pancakes are served with ube butter and coconut syrup." - Brittany Britto Garley
"A Filipino restaurant offering a refreshing pandan iced tea that highlights pandan’s lightly sweet, slightly earthy, vanilla-like flavor; it serves as a cooling, nostalgic summer option that showcases the ingredient’s growing presence on local dessert and beverage menus." - Brittany Britto Garley
"If you’re looking for ways to increase your weekly spam intake or eat your bodyweight in lumpia, Be More Pacific, a Filipino restaurant, can help you out. Try the house spam silog with garlic rice and a bowl of braise chicken adobo, or snack on some longganisa tots smothered in house queso and banana ketchup. The colorful dining room—decked out in fake palm trees—has a full bar and a large patio deck. Plus, the bar windows next to the patio slide all the way open, which is great if you want to take in the breeze from the cars driving too fast down Yale Street. " - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
