The place is small but cute. We sat at the counter which faces the kitchen and it was fun to see all the action. The pork belly appetizer was phenomenal, the pork belly was so crispy and the sauce was flavorful. Khao soi was delicious, the curry was spicy and had such depth of flavor but I thought there was too much of the crunchy noodle and not enough of the cooked noodles. The steak was my least favorite, it had a really nice salt and pepper crust but some pieces had something like cartilage that was unpleasant to eat. The service was great!
This was my first time at this restaurant. It truly was an amazing dining experience. The food truly has amazing flavors. The drinks also aim to please. I'd highly recommend this spot.
Very good food and the staff accommodated my last minute changes for adding people. We had 6 and 2 more came and they were able to quickly find tables in the back and fit us all in.
Food is incredibly tasty all over. Not sure there was a star dish but all very delicious. Large plates each can maybe feed two people and small plates can feed a few if each has just one bite. We ordered 3 with but as a group of 8 we would have needed to order 4 or 5 and 4 or 5 small plates.
Drinks were very good.
Highly recommend for a new type of filipino/asian cuisine thats out of the ordinary
Super delicious spot!
Had the Sizzling Sisig, Khao Soi noodles, and the baby back ribs.
The Sisig had great texture with the crispy bits of skin and the chew of rendered fat. It diminishes a bit when it cools down, so highly recommended to finish that off first.
The Khao Soi noods had excellent flavor and the baby back ribs had this great tangy flavor that I think was from lime and fish sauce. If you're looking for a different style of ribs than southern style baby back ribs, these are really good!
Service was very friendly and I will definitely come back!
brunch is great! one of the servers mikey was so helpful and on it. We wanted something sweet for dessert and he made a couple suggestions just when we need them - the french toast was perfect!!

Absolutely loved the food here. For a group of 5, we ordered the coconut rice, Khao Soi, Hainanese duck, pork belly adobo, singing shrimp and donuts. It was more than enough for all of us.
Along with that I got the mocktail, coconut mustache which was delightful.
The only thing is the music was WAY too loud, it felt like a club atmosphere but it was so loud in fact, I'm sure it contributed to hearing loss (which studies have shown loud sounds regardless of duration does) and it was SO difficult to have a conversation with even people you were sitting beside because the music was so loud. Otherwise the food was exceptional as was the service.
One other minor thing was - I was given a container to take home left over food and then another waiter (not our original) just came and took the food away without asking us when clearly I had a takeout container beside it so that was irritating, they took it and walked away and didn't hear us by the time we saw cause yes, the music was so loud. So I lost a barely eaten coconut rice that I was otherwise looking forward to.

Last week, my husband and I went to Pig and Khao. This was last minutes reservation. I thought he was able to make 6pm dinner, but turned out he didn't. So I changed to 645pm reservation. I showed up 30 minutes earlier because I thought I can sit at the bar and having a cocktail while waiting for 6:45 and reservation and my husband.
When I arrived and realized that they don't have a typical bar, but I asked them anyway. The host offered to sit me at the table so I have a cocktail while waiting. Turned out I had two :)
When my husband arrived, he wanted to sit at chef counter. So we asked, and they were able to accommodate us.
We decided to go with restaurant week menu. That was so much delicious foods. We had to take some home because we couldn't finish them all at one seating. Here are the dishes that we had:
-Pork Belly Adobo
-Sizzling Sisig
-Green Papaya Salad
-Sinigang Shrimp
-Isaan Steak
-BBQ Baby Back Ribs
-Coco Rice
-Donuts with pandan custard
-The second desert, I forgot the name
We will definitely be back here soon.
Modernized southeast asian food. Love the Sizzling Sisig, recommend eating it with the Coconut Rice, otherwise it might get salty.
The Khao Soi & Halo Halo are average.
This place is the most cramped I’ve dined in NYC, especially for 2 person seating. They had to move the tables just to let one of us in, and that person will pretty much be locked in for the whole meal.
An accident happen while we were dining where a glass fell from the table beside us and got all over my feet because we were so close to each other.
I hope the restaurant will truly consider the safety of customers when planning such a small table for multiple dishes that is said to be “shareable”
I went here December 2021 and still recall it as an incredible meal. The flavors of every dish were worth pausing for. It was packed on a Saturday night for dinner, and every table is very close together so a group of 4 is the biggest i would suggest.
Filipino and Thai restaurant that offers many traditional Filipino dishes! I really enjoyed the sisig which is basically pig head, cheek etc deep fried served on a cast iron plate. Doesn’t sound appetizing but it’s one of the most delicious most flavorful dish I’ve had. It’s tangy, salty, savory, crunchy all in one bite. Goes great with rice or beer.
The tamarind long beans were tasty as well. I wish I can eat long beans like this everyday. My only criticism is the turon, which lacked flavor and the banana filling was lacking. Definitely don’t order dessert here, but other dishes I’m sure are stellar!
Great spot for brunch. The ramen dish is superb and the bottomless mimosas are good value. Service was hit and miss, they forgot the food we ordered but they kept topping up mimosas at good speed so I won't take a star off.
Definitely get the Chili Pan Mee
Pig and Khao is serving up Filipino-Thai-accented Southeast Asian fare in NYC. A unique fusion that I was eager to try so my party of 4 made a reservation for dinner. We were seated towards the front of the restaurant with a view into the kitchen.
What we got:
- Sweet and Sour Cilantro Soda
- Sizzling Sisig
- Chili Pan Mee
- Khao Soi
- Hainanese Duck
- Coconut Rice
- Jasmine Rice
My Favs:
- That coconut rice was AMAZING and a perfect pair to your sizzling sisig
- The Hainanese Duck with duck fat rice
Final Thoughts:
If you're ordering the Chili Pan Mee, note that it is a peanut oil noodle so nuts can't be removed and though I didn't try it due to an allergy the rest of my party enjoyed it. The sisig was crispy and had a kick of spice that was paired well with the coconut rice. We've had better Khao Soi elsewhere as the portion size was on the smaller end with little soup and noodles. The duck rice was crispy and decadent.
The flavors were so good in every dish. The beef skewers were so tender. The ribs easily pulled off the bone. Highly recommend choosing one dish from every section to share. The pineapple mustache was refreshing! 10/10 recommend pig & Khao. Staff were attentive and knowledgeable.
The crispy skin on the bellychon was too hard and it scraped my gum. Otherwise food was delicious. Highlights were the pork jowl salad and Khao Soi noodle.
Really tasty. I like that they have small and large plates for how hungry you are. Also helps to order something if you are on more of a budget.
I ordered the sinigang shrimp and a side of jasmine rice and it was the perfect portion. Lots of flavor.
It is best to make reservations as the place is a bit small.
Make reservations!! Our group of 4 was luckily able to snag a table walking in on a Wednesday night but they were packed. The food smelled SO GOOD the moment we walked in.
We ordered:
- Sizzling Sisig
- Hainanese Duck
- Fried Brussels
- Fried pork belly dish (limited quantity per day)
Everything was delicious and had so much flavor. The sisig was a bit too salty for us, but the rice helped. Duck was perfectly cooked, one of my favorite dishes. The limited pork belly dish (we got one of the last 2) was so tender and skin was crunchy - yum! Everyone liked their drinks too, and service was friendly.
We made a reservation using Resy, and we chose to sit at the bar facing the kitchen area, and it was nice to see chefs at work!
Can we order the papaya salad, the duck and the khao soi and had the (non- alcoholic) ginger fizz drink. The duck was our favourite dish and it was incredible. Definitely not overrated at all and a MUST get. it was cooked really well, and it had great crispy rice underneath. The khao soi and papaya salad were both really good, but wasn’t anything to write home about. Didn’t eat the ribs but they looked really good!
Save room for the Halo Halo dessert - really good.
We had various waiters come and ask to take our order minutes apart, which was a little weird but they were all nice. The music and vibe were nice overall. Would definitely come back just for the duck!
