Silantro Fil-Mex Cantina

This is one of our favorite comfort food restos in Kapitolyo! We have been here a couple of times, either as a couple or with a group of friends. 

Silantro is located at 75 East Capitol Drive, Pasig City. It is along the streets of Charlie's, Cab Cafe and immediately after  Rub.  It is right before the Holy Family Parish church. You might miss this small place, so be alert when you see Rub. 

Here are our top picks (not sure if there were price changes):

Dinamita for P140! A combination of jalapeno and cheese. Very much recommended as an appetizer and as pulutan!

Silantro's quesadillas for P145! A different take on the usual quesadilla I'm used to. Some may find this very rich and creamy, but is just fine for me. 2 pcs of quesadilla with fries. 

Calliente wings for P170! 4 big pcs of buffalo wings, a little bit sweet, and is perfect with the cabbage that comes with it.

Burrito for P160. Even if I'm not a fan of burritos, this is worth a try! (Sorry wasn't able to get a pic of this one)

Other items we've ordered that are also recommended:

Silantro's pork ribs for P195, just perfect with rice!

Nachos for P145.

Some say their paella is also good, but haven't had the chance to try it.

They serve Pepsi products and beer, but I always order their dalandan juice. 

The place gets pretty full at night, so either be early for dinner or be willing to line up. I believe it is open from 11am until 11pm Sun-Thu and until 1am on Fri-Sat. Parking is on the side street, but there are some barangay tanods and street boys to assist customers.

I love how they incorporated cilantro in their dishes. Reasonably priced food for the quality and serving size. Great for group dinner/gimmick. Very much recommended. Note: forget that you're on a diet if you plan to eat here :)

Happy eating!
