About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Good for groups
Our name, Kalye, comes from the Tagalog word for "street." We chose this name to reflect our mission of bringing energy and life back into the streets of New York City by offering you a new way to experience Filipino food!

While serving traditional lechon, unique ribs adobo, and inventive pork and ube sliders, Kalye doubles as an art gallery. Here, we showcase the untapped potential of local grassroots artists and those from the Philippines. By doing so, we hope to invigorate Kalye's patrons by displaying artwork from independent artists.

    Great food, great staff, great fun! The noise level could’ve been a bit lower, though. Otherwise, perfect.

    “A feast for the senses!” I am Fil-Am and this is legit delicious Filipino. We had the Club 95 and this is huge. Its more than enough for four people. The selection was a delightful explosion of flavors, perfectly seasoned and beautifully plated. The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfectly complemented by the live music. We saw Mangrove Red. This band is a perfect blend of musicality and artistry! Filipino spice within genre of Jazz, R&B, and Hip-hop created a delightful backdrop, enhancing the overall dining experience. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, making excellent recommendations that elevated our meal. Cant wait to return.

    It was my first time at Kalye with friends; we ordered a few drinks, sisig, and lumpia. The portions were more than enough, and the food was delicious. There was live music, ambiance was vibey, but it was a little too loud. I could hardly hear my friends talking. Other than that, we had a good time and would come back again!

    Food was great BUT the band noise level is beyond allowable decibel. It is NOT fun to be eating with live band’s blaring noise. If this is just a bar, maybe BUT if they want more people to enjoy their meals, they need to tone down music until usual dinner hour. Otherwise, they will only attract non-family, single crowd.

    Staff are amazingly helpful and accommodating. We came very early for our reservation but they still accepted us. Their pork sisig, shanghai, cocktails, etc are our favorites.
