This tiny restaurant has the feel of grandma's kitchen if grandma regularly served up authentic Filipino food. That includes a "traditional Filipino breakfast" on weekends, featuring pan-fried boneless marinated milkfish. A friendly staff and a reputation for being "authentic" makes the Bayan a true neighborhood gem and a rare destination spot for Midtown.
