"Ihawan has a lot of competition in the neighborhood. Renee’s and Tito Rad’s, for example. All three Woodside restaurants are great for Filipino group meals, but Ihawan is our top pick for a kamayan-style feast. In the bright, mirror-lined, second-story room, a spread for six laid out on banana leaves will run you $125, and it’ll come with everything from a mild, creamy kare-kare to a whole butterflied fish with a thick, salty crust." - bryan kim, willa moore
"A longtime favorite Filipino spot in Woodside, Queens, known for its authentic Filipino cuisine." - Emma Orlow
"A kamayan-style meal at Ihawan is required eating. At this casual Filipino restaurant in Woodside, a spread for eight laid out on banana leaves will run you $160, and it’ll come with everything from a mild, creamy kare-kare to a whole butterflied fish with a thick, salty crust. Come for a casually extravagant feast in the bright, mirror-lined, second-story room, and get out for around $20 plus tax and tip each." - willa moore, bryan kim, matt tervooren

They don't serve alcohol, but you'll find cocktails from $16 ($10 at Happy Hour) down the road at Upstairs Cocktail Bar." - willa moore, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
"Perfect Order: Kamayan platter for four Eating with your hands automatically makes a meal more fun, which is just part of why we love this long-standing Filipino spot in Woodside. Served over banana leaves, the kamayan platter for four ($110) is a beautiful family-style spread that includes barbecued pork and chicken, shrimp, pork tocino, lumpia, and more. If you’re still hungry, add on an order of the sizzling sisig. Ihawan doesn’t serve alcohol, so if you want a drink, follow your feast with a nightcap at Upstairs Cocktail Bar around the corner." - molly fitzpatrick, hannah albertine, willa moore, will hartman
