Filipino Food in the UAE (2026): What a Silog, an Adobo and a Boodle Fight Cost

Filipino food in the UAE runs on two price systems at once. At a small turo-turo eatery — the counter where dishes sit in trays and you point at what you want — a full plate costs a few dirhams. At a named chain restaurant, the same dish can cost two or three times as much, and both prices are real, published and orderable today. The headline numbers, built only from menus and guides fetched for this page: a silog breakfast plate costs AED 15–46, with most menus clustering at AED 20–33; a chicken adobo costs AED 15–38 at small eateries; and a boodle-style group feast costs AED 75 for a solo seafood boodle, AED 89–95 for two people, and AED 149–174 for a feast feeding three to four. Almost every figure below is a delivery-platform list price, because that is where Filipino restaurants in the UAE publish checkable prices — and every figure is labelled with its channel so platform prices, counter figures and guide figures are never merged.

How much does a silog breakfast cost?

A silog is the standard Filipino breakfast plate: garlic fried rice (sinangag), a fried egg (itlog) and a protein — beef tapa in a tapsilog, sweet cured chicken in a tocilog, sausage in a longsilog, milkfish in a bangsilog. It is the most widely listed Filipino dish in the UAE and the cheapest complete meal in this article. The floor is set by small eateries: Philippine Hut prices most of its silog meals at AED 20 and its hotsilog at AED 15 on Talabat, Pulutan House prices a chicksilog at AED 16, and one Satwa restaurant’s own menu prices its silog meals at AED 15 each — a social-post menu figure, labelled as such. The working cluster sits a step above: tapsilog at AED 20 at Inihaw King, AED 24 at Dine Out City, AED 26 at Al Rigga Restaurant and TAPSILOGAN, AED 27 at Chic Boy Inasal and Lapaz Batchoy, AED 28 at Agemono Express, AED 30 at Mancha and AED 33 at Adobo House. The top is also real and is not averaged away: Pinoy Tambayan prices its tapsilog at AED 43 and Dabawenya at AED 46 list, the dearest single silog plate fetched.

Two cautions belong with that range. Several menus show a lower promotional figure beside the list price — one Sharjah listing shows bangsilog at AED 40 list with AED 20 beside it — and this page quotes list prices only. And the best-known Filipino chain in the country, Max’s Restaurant, publishes no checkable silog list price in what was fetched: its platform menu priced its feasts and chicken but not its breakfast plates, and its shared weekend breakfast offer (AED 19 with coffee, dine-in promotion) drew comments on the chain’s own page from diners who said they were charged AED 29. A promotion disputed on the brand’s own page is not a price, and none is quoted for Max’s here.

What do the core dishes cost on a menu you can check?

Every row names its restaurant, dish and channel. A price labelled “Talabat menu” or “Deliveroo menu” is a delivery-platform list price from the platform’s own menu text; promotions beside list prices are never quoted.

Read the table as a set of ladders, one per dish, not as a price list for “Filipino food”. Adobo shows the pattern: the Food Hub’s AED 15 chicken adobo is a turo-turo plate; Tita Julies charges AED 24 and Filipino Cuisine Restaurant AED 35 for the same dish name; Lapaz Batchoy charges AED 38 on both Talabat and Deliveroo — Talabat first listed AED 36 and moved to AED 38 between retrievals on 9 November, so the two platforms now agree — and Filipino Express charges AED 60, an outlier AED 25 above the next platform adobo. Sinigang, the tamarind soup, runs from AED 22 for bangus (milkfish) with rice at the Food Hub and AED 23 for shrimp at the same counter, through AED 30 at Tita Julies and AED 41–45 at Lapaz Batchoy, to Gerry’s Grill’s AED 41 shrimp and AED 52–54 boneless bangus — the chain prices that dish at AED 54 on two listings and AED 52 on two others, a AED 2 spread recorded rather than rounded — and Pinoy Tambayan’s AED 65–75 set at the top. Kare-kare, the peanut stew, has the widest spread of any dish here: AED 20 at the Food Hub, AED 40–45 across Filipino Cuisine Restaurant, JAPPI Gourmet, Cancios, JR’S Restaurant and Makboi, AED 57 at Filipino Express and AED 67 at Pinoy Tambayan. One kare-kare publishes no price at all: Lapaz Batchoy lists the dish with a full description but marks it “Price on Selection” on every listing fetched, so no figure is quoted for it.

Why does the same dish cost AED 15 in one place and AED 45 in another?

Four reasons, all visible in the fetched menus. Format: a turo-turo plate is a scoop from a tray with rice; a chain plate is a cooked-to-order serve in a dining room. Protein: sinigang climbs by what swims in it — milkfish at AED 22–30, shrimp at AED 41, boneless bangus at AED 52–54, beef at AED 75 at the top-priced listing. Portion labelling: lumpia is priced per serve, not per piece, on most menus — Agemono Express states 4 pieces for AED 15 and Tawlat 6 pieces for AED 16, while Pinoy Tambayan states no count against its AED 45 — so part of that threefold spread is portion, and the menus do not give enough to divide it out; this page does not invent a per-piece price. Platform: Lapaz Batchoy’s chicken adobo is AED 38 on both platforms (Talabat moved from AED 36 to AED 38 between retrievals on 9 November), and Off The Hook’s identical set meals run AED 6–70 higher on two listings than on the rest. A smaller point sits inside the lechon kawali row: every platform lechon kawali fetched is a beef version (Lapaz Batchoy, Pinoy Twist) or a chicken version (JAPPI Gourmet). No platform menu fetched prices a pork lechon kawali plate; pork versions appear by the kilo from home-delivery sellers at AED 60–70 per kg on social posts, and inside the licensed buffet at Lamesa, where lechon kawali is a named highlight of a buffet priced at AED 75–90 per person across three sources. Different products, kept apart here.

What do noodles, rolls and street skewers cost?

Pancit is the mid-priced staple. A single-portion palabok — rice noodles in shrimp sauce — starts at AED 20 at Tawlat Restaurant, AED 21.99 at Barrio De Pugon (pancit malabon AED 23.99), AED 23 at Kusina Batangan, AED 24 at Gerry’s Grill and AED 28 for Agemono Express’s overload version; it tops out at AED 39 list at Kusina Natin To and AED 51 at Sarap Nation. Bihon sits in the same band (AED 20–39). Group formats on the same menus are not per-person prices: Agemono’s bihon bilao for 8–10 people is AED 160 and its palabok platter AED 180. For readers costing a full meal rather than a single dish, our budget meals guide sets these plates against the UAE’s other cheap full meals, and our biryani prices guide prices the other rice-plate staple ordered on the same platforms.

Lumpia — the fried Shanghai roll — is the clearest small dish to compare, because two menus state their counts. Four pieces are AED 15 at Agemono Express and AED 15.99 at Barrio De Pugon; six pieces are AED 16 at Tawlat; ten chicken Shanghai pieces are AED 25 at JR’S Restaurant on Deliveroo. Against those, Gerry’s Grill charges AED 27 and Pinoy Tambayan AED 45 with no count stated. Fresh lumpia is AED 18 at Kusina Batangan and AED 27 list at Kusina Natin To. Street skewers are the cheapest hot food here: three sticks of grilled isaw (chicken intestine) are AED 12 at Chooks Express and Al Rigga Restaurant, AED 15 at Sugbahan, Jolly Tops and Kabayan Zone Cafe, AED 17 at Jolly Bee and AED 18 list at Mancha; three chicken BBQ sticks are AED 18 at JR’S Restaurant and AED 24 at Jolly Bee, and one Al Ain restaurant’s own menu prices isaw at AED 2 a stick — a social-post menu figure, the cheapest skewer price fetched, labelled as the channel it is. The wider skewer-and-counter pattern is mapped in our street food guide.

What does a boodle fight or a group feast cost?

The boodle fight — food laid on banana leaves down the middle of the table and eaten by hand — is priced by the feast, not by the person, on every menu fetched. The cheapest named formats are seafood boodles at Captain Talipapa: Solo Boodle AED 75, Double Boodle AED 118, Fight Boodle AED 175. Off The Hook, the Filipino-run seafood chain, prices the same idea as set meals with stated serving sizes: a Seafood Solo Meal for up to two people at AED 89 on most listings and AED 95 on two of them, a Trio Meal for three to four at AED 157 or AED 169 on the same split, a Grande Meal for eight to ten at AED 429 or AED 459, and a Fiesta Meal for twelve to fifteen at AED 629 or AED 699 — both price sets are the chain’s own, fetched the same day, and neither can be called the chain price. The Boil Seafood Restaurant’s boodle line runs from AED 98 to a six-person feast at AED 350. Gerry’s Grill’s Boodle Feast, with unlimited rice, is priced at AED 149 for three to four people in the chain’s own post collected on a review page; a diner report on the same page describes an AED 84 boodle fight for two at the same chain — a posted figure and a review figure, kept apart.

Dampa Seafood Grill, the best-known boodle address in the country, publishes no checkable menu price in what was fetched — every Dampa figure here is a guide or review figure and carries its date. A menu round-up prices its Dump@SeaFeast at approximately AED 145 for two to three people; a seafood-boil guide says around AED 160 for two; a city food guide gives AED 120–160 for two; and two published reviews from 2024–2025 put the feast at Dhs174 for two to three diners, with unlimited rice. Read together, Dampa sits at AED 120–174 for two to three people depending on source and year — above Captain Talipapa’s platform boodles, in line with Off The Hook’s trio. At the family end, Max’s Restaurant prices a Chicken Feast (whole fried chicken, two rice, two iced teas) at AED 85 and set menus for ten people at AED 590, AED 615 and AED 774. How either end of this market lands in a monthly budget is worked through in our cost of living budgets.

What does halo-halo cost?

Halo-halo — shaved ice, milk, sweet beans, jellies and fruit, topped with leche flan and ube ice cream — is priced like the silog: a standard version at turo-turo prices and a premium version at dessert-shop prices. The platform floor is AED 15 at Sugbahan Restaurant, matched by two social-post menus; Pulutan House charges AED 18; Mango Mania AED 20 for its standard versions and AED 25 for mango or avocado; Milk Tea House and Tapa King both charge AED 24; and the top is AED 30 at Afforda Cup, New Amanda Restaurant and Makboi, and AED 35 for Mancha’s ube halo-halo, against AED 25 for its standard special. One Deliveroo listing (Pinoy Hot Pot Restaurant) shows AED 32 against its halo-halo — and against nearly every other line on that menu in the fetched text, which reads as an indexing fault; the figure is recorded in the data behind this page and used only with that caution. After a savoury plate, the natural comparison is the tea counter: our karak chai and cafeteria prices guide prices the AED 1–6 cup that usually ends the same meal out.

Where is Filipino food cheapest, area by area?

Dubai holds the deepest evidence and both ends of most ranges. Its priced clusters are Satwa and Al Badaa (Sugbahan’s AED 15 silog and halo-halo, Agemono’s AED 15 lumpia), Deira and Al Rigga (Inihaw King’s AED 20 tapsilog, Dampa’s dine-in feasts), Karama (the Max’s and Gerry’s Grill chains, Tita Julies’ AED 24 adobo on Deliveroo) and International City (the Philippine Food Hub — cheapest adobo, kare-kare and sinigang here). It also holds the tops: Pinoy Tambayan and Sarap Nation price dish after dish at the top of today’s ranges. The city’s South Asian cafeteria belt is covered in our desi food guide.

Abu Dhabi matches that depth more closely than any other emirate, and its floor is lower: Philippine Hut’s silog meals at AED 15–20, Pulutan House’s AED 16 chicksilog, and Luzan Manila Bakery’s AED 25 adobo and sinigang on Deliveroo (an older platform crawl than the others used here, flagged in the data). Its centre is Lapaz Batchoy (silog AED 26–27, adobo AED 38 on both platforms), and its chains match Dubai’s within a couple of dirhams. Adobo House prices tapsilog at AED 33 and sinigang at AED 50 on Deliveroo.

Sharjah has moderate coverage, concentrated in Muwaileh, the University of Sharjah listings and Al Nahda: Naderang’s silog at AED 18 and street food at AED 14, a hotsilog at AED 14 list, Filipino Taste’s sharing chicken adobo (two rice servings) at AED 25.99, and Al Rigga Restaurant’s isaw at AED 12 — the joint-cheapest platform skewer here. Filipino Cuisine Restaurant in Abu Shagara prices a full core menu (adobo AED 35, kare-kare AED 40, sinigang AED 37–38, a kamayan set at AED 160). Two Sharjah listings price far above the emirate’s cluster — a bakery tapsilog at AED 42 and one restaurant’s list prices (silog specials AED 55 list, chicken adobo AED 74 list); both are recorded in the data as outliers and are not used in the headline bands.

Ajman — honestly thin. Exactly one priced platform restaurant was retrieved: TAPSILOGAN’s Ajman University listing (tapsilog and bangsilog AED 26, palabok AED 24.15, chicken inasal from AED 26). Beyond that, Ajman’s evidence is delivery-based — a silog seller delivering into the emirate with a AED 50 minimum order, and by-weight lechon sellers advertising delivery there. That is enough to say Filipino food is orderable in Ajman at the same AED 24–26 dish prices as elsewhere; it is not enough to price Ajman’s own adobo, sinigang or halo-halo, and this page does not.

Al Ain — three channels, one wide spread. JR’S Restaurant’s Deliveroo menu (opened in full for this page) prices tapsilog and bangsilog at AED 29, tocilog at AED 28, beef kare-kare at AED 43, ten chicken Shanghai rolls at AED 25, isaw at AED 15 for three sticks and seafood sets at AED 105 for two people and AED 189 for four to five. Talabat adds Makboi (tapsilog AED 27, kare-kare AED 45, halo-halo AED 30) and Tawlat (palabok and bihon at AED 20, six lumpia at AED 16 — the cheapest pancit here). A third channel, Pinoy Twist’s own menu, prices mains at AED 25, shrimp sinigang at AED 25, halo-halo at AED 15 and isaw at AED 2 a stick. The same dessert is AED 15 on one Al Ain menu and AED 30 on another; both are printed, neither is smoothed.

Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain — gaps, stated plainly. No Filipino restaurant menu with a retrievable price — platform, own-site or social — was found for any of the three on the day this page was researched. Umm Al Quwain appears only as a delivery area in a seller’s minimum-order note. Where the evidence runs out, this page stops: the ranges above rest on the five areas with evidence.

How does Filipino food compare with other cheap meals out?

A silog at AED 20–33 is a complete rice meal for roughly the price of a mid-range biryani plate. The guides put the next rung — a full meal at a casual Filipino chain restaurant — at around AED 50–80 per person (Serafina Dubai) and AED 40–100 per person for Max’s (The Dubai Atlas): guide figures for a sit-down meal with drinks, a different purchase from a single platform plate, and the two should not be merged. The monthly maths is where the turo-turo floor matters: a AED 20 silog five workdays a week is about AED 400–430 a month; the same habit at a AED 43–46 top-end tapsilog is AED 860–920. A boodle feast splits the other way — AED 149–174 shared by three or four people is the group’s biggest meal of the month at a fraction of what the same table would pay ordering plates separately.

FAQs

What is the cheapest Filipino meal in the UAE?

On checkable platform evidence, AED 15: Philippine Hut’s hotsilog meal on Talabat, matched by Sugbahan Restaurant’s AED 15 halo-halo and AED 15 silog meals on its own menu. A full silog plate at AED 20 is available at several named restaurants (Philippine Hut, Inihaw King), so AED 20 is the safer planning figure.

Why is the same dish so much more expensive at some Filipino restaurants?

Because the dish name covers different products: a turo-turo tray plate, a cooked-to-order chain serve and a premium listing with no portion stated. The menus show it dish by dish — tapsilog at AED 20 and at AED 46 list, lumpiang Shanghai at AED 15 for four stated pieces and at AED 45 with no count stated, kare-kare at AED 20 and at AED 67. This page shows the whole ladder for each dish rather than picking a middle figure.

What does a boodle fight cost per person?

The menus price boodles by the feast, so any per-person figure is division, not a published price — and this page does not present division as a price. The published figures are: AED 75 for a solo seafood boodle, AED 89–95 for a two-person set meal, AED 149 for a feast stated for three to four people, and AED 120–174 for two to three people at Dampa on guide and review figures. Note also that two listings of the same seafood chain price the identical set meals AED 6–70 apart.

Is pork easy to find in Filipino restaurants in the UAE?

Less easy than the dish names suggest, on the evidence fetched. Every platform lechon kawali retrieved is menued as a beef or chicken version; pork appears in licensed settings (the Lamesa buffet inside a Deira hotel) and in by-weight social-post sales at AED 60–70 per kg. A platform dish called lechon kawali should be read for its stated meat before ordering.

Which areas have no priced Filipino food evidence on this page?

Three emirates — Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain — returned no Filipino menu with a retrievable price on the day of research, and Ajman returned exactly one restaurant. The ranges here are built from the other areas’ listings only, and the gap is stated rather than filled with estimates.

Methodology: prices are quoted as ranges unless a named menu publishes an exact price, in which case it is quoted exactly with its source. Delivery-platform prices are list prices; platform promotions and struck-through discounts are not quoted as prices. Guide figures are labelled as guide figures, review figures with their publication dates, and social-post figures as social-post figures. Where sources disagreed, both figures are shown in the text. Places and prices with no retrievable figure — Max’s Restaurant’s silog and halo-halo plates, Lapaz Batchoy’s kare-kare, and Filipino food in Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain — are stated as gaps, not estimated.
