Siklab+, the latest concept from The Bistro Group, celebrates the diversity of Filipino cuisine, offering a dining experience that is both familiar and exciting. The restaurant puts a modern twist on traditional culinary heritage with bold flavors and an approachable style.
The ambiance is sophisticated yet casual, with modern minimalist interiors in muted shades of brown, gray, and beige, creating a cozy and inviting vibe. The restrained design elements are elegant and graceful, making the space appealing for food enthusiasts to share on social media.
Bold flavors from start to finish
Siklab+ offers bold and assertive flavors that tease and please the palate. The dishes are sweet, sour, salty, and sometimes spicy, yet always comforting, no matter their regional origins. The menu is well-curated, and the dishes are presented in striking vessels that invite you to dive in.
Start your meal with favorites like Kuhol in Tanggol, OK na Okoy, Paboritong Sisig, and Lumpiang Ubod ng Sarap, alongside Pinalutong na Tawilis and Anak ng Tokwa’t Baboy.
A Filipino dining experience wouldn’t be complete without a vegetable dish. Siklab+ offers options like Gising-Gising Na!, Tortalong, GinisAmpalaya, and Bet Na Pinakbet.
Comforting soups include the sour Sinigang with choices of pork or milkfish, Batangas Bulalo Ala Eh!, and Lola’s Ginisang Munggo, made special with a crunchy chicharon topping.
Given the Philippines' proximity to the sea, Siklab+ features seafood dishes like Siniklabang Tuna Belly and Garlicky Squid Adobo.
For meat lovers, the menu includes hearty dishes like KKK: Klasikong Kare-Kare, Pinalutong na Tadyang, Pinoy Bistek, Siniklabang Manok, Crispy Dinuguan, Bopis ni Ima, Panalong Pork BBQ, and the ever-popular Crispy Pata-rrific. The Kalderetang Kordero offers a different take on the classic dish, using tender lamb.
Homey gastronomy
Merienda fare is also a highlight at Siklab+, with options like Siklab Special Lomi, PBG: Pancit Bihon Guisado, and Pancit Palabok.
Finish your meal with sweet treats like Kalamay Sa Latik, Palitaw, and the innovative Turon Trio. Christmas favorites Bonggang Bibingka and Puto Bumbong are available year-round for a festive touch.
Siklab+ also offers unique specialty drinks, including Kamias Pineapple Slush, Tsokolate at Kalamansi, and Sikab Gulaman, as well as Filipino-themed cocktails like Ube Kolada, Sierra Madre, and Dalandan ng Ale.
