Renee's Kitchenette & Grill

Renee's kitchenette was the first filipino restaurant I ever had in New York and safe to say its pretty good. The spot is a small cozy restaurant that has that familiar cozy southeast asian warm. The food was also amazing. I had the dinuguan which was a filipino blood stew(kinda like Schwarzsauer) and the barbecue was really good. The service was a bit slow but then again it was christmas time so it makes sense. Overall must try and highly recommended.

My family and I came here on 10/18/2025, arriving around 5:30 p.m. for dinner. The restaurant is quite small inside. They have high chairs available for babies, which is nice. The staff were friendly for the most part and seated us quickly. My husband ordered the popular Mixed Grill, while my mom and I both ordered Goto. We also got Sizzling Sisig and Lumpiang Shanghai to share. Two generous portions of garlic rice came out first, but they were a bit stale and not as warm as I would've liked. The flavor was bland and could've used more seasoning. The Goto was hot and tasted good overall although a bit more yellow than I'm used to. My mom commented that they probably used too much saffron, which explains the very yellow color. The Mixed Grill looked mouthwatering when it arrived and it s

The atmosphere here is very home-y and friendly! The food was so fresh and savory, I ordered the Chicken Adobo and Beef Kaldereta (with white rice on the side). I highly recommend if you want to experience Filipino food cooked with love. :)

If you want the good old traditional filipino food that your Titas/Titos or Lola/lolo or child hood food your mom/dad made this is the place to go. Soon as I walked in it felt like I was in a family kitchen and knew the food was good. I got the Bbq platter, garlic rice and sinigang! So much food at a reasonable price! Highly suggest this place!

Fantastic! Definitely get the bbq sampler for $30. Large portion of delicious meats. Also enjoyed tender chicken adobo silog and a not-too-sweet ube shake!
