Barkada Social Club

If you’re craving authentic Filipino flavors, Bakada Social Club is a fantastic find. I stopped in recently for a fix and was not disappointed. I ordered the Tapsilog (cured beef and egg) along with an order of Lumpia, and both were delicious and hit the spot. Beyond the food, the ambiance is a major plus—it’s stylish and welcoming without being overly noisy, making it a great place to actually hold a conversation. The staff provided excellent service, ensuring everything was taken care of throughout the meal. I left feeling very satisfied and am already planning to bring a group of friends back next time.

I went here on a Sunday afternoon for brunch and it has to be one of my favorite places to eat. The place was quiet at first, but more people came in an it started getting quite lively. The food was not only delicious but also flavorful. The staff were kind and attentive. I highly recommend the brunch menu with the bottomless drinks. The Bellini was great, but keep in mind that they no longer serve Sangrias.

Delicious food in a lovely atmosphere. The Ube Espresso Martini is light unique and refreshing. The lumpia was crisp to perfection with a slight zing to their sweet chilli sauce. My wife loved the homemade shrimp paste that came with the kare kare. Meals were well portioned for an amazing price. Everything is done with touches of authentic Filipino culture

Filipino food in Astoria, how refreshing and just what the neighborhood needed. Centrally located off the MTA, close to everything. This is your new chill, delicious neighborhood Filipino restaurant spot to hang out! This is a date spot, a solo chill at the bar "Cheers" spot, a bring your friends spot, a takeover the large back section and watch the game spot. Let's get to the food. Barkada gives you traditional Filipino comfort AND twist. You can have one, the other or both. Really comprehensive menu without being overwhelming, all dishes we ordered were done well. The star for me, hands down Sinigang Wings (hello dry rub with so much flavor and juicy tender chicken). I've not seen this before, it was familiar yet not, and they did it well! Also loved the pork bbq skewers, so flavorful,

It’s been a long time coming, but Astoria finally has an authentic Filipino joint! The food is delicious and the drinks are crafted with care, but what truly makes this place shine is the atmosphere. It feels warm, welcoming, and unhurried; the kind of spot where you can relax, take your time, and enjoy great conversations with friends while soaking in the vibe.
