Hapag Ihaw-Ihaw Restaurant is one of the best filipino restaurants in Vancouver for dinner, especially if you want a strong option in Vancouver.

Editorial review updated•Jul 28, 2026

Hapag Ihaw-Ihaw is doing something specific in Vancouver, and the name tells you exactly what it is — ihaw-ihaw means grilled, and the menu is built around that commitment rather than softened for a broader audience. This is not a fusion experiment or a tasting-menu reimagining of anyone's lola's kitchen. It's a straightforward, unapologetic Filipino spot at a price point that makes it accessible to basically anyone, and the regulars who keep coming back aren't doing so for the ambiance. The menu centers on the kind of dishes that Filipinos actually eat rather than the ones that photograph well for a Western audience. The Pork BBQ Skewers are reportedly the anchor — charred and sweet-savory from the marinade, the kind of thing diners consistently point to as a reason to return. Crispy Pata, the braised-then-fried pork leg, is known for its crackling skin and the dipping vinegar served alongside, which cuts through the richness in the way the dish demands. Sisig arrives sizzling, a chopped pork preparation with a punchy, savory reputation that makes it one of the more talked-about plates on the menu. Lumpiang Shanghai — tight fried spring rolls — are the kind of starter that reportedly disappears from the table before anyone makes a deliberate decision to eat them. For dessert, the Leche Flan is described by regulars as dense and deeply caramel-dark, and at this price level, skipping it seems like a poor use of the opportunity. The practical approach here is to come with people and order across the menu — this is table-spread food, not a solo bowl situation. Prices are firmly in the budget range, the portions are built for sharing, and the kitchen is clearly more interested in feeding you well than impressing you with presentation.

Editorial review by Carlos Mendez

No diner notes for Hapag Ihaw-Ihaw Restaurant yet.

There's a small ceremony to eating here that most Vancouver hot pot rooms skip: the cloisonné copper pots, the charcoal glowing underneath, the sense that dinner is an event rather than a transaction.
