Carding’s Tambayan

We came here on a Saturday evening after watching a show on the Strip. Carding’s isn’t close to the Strip but we were glad we made the trip. There was a private party being held in the restaurant but the owners still opened their doors to us. They were having karaōke and so the place was quite loud. We didn’t mind it at all because the atmosphere was festive and lively. We ordered lumpiang shanghai, lechon kawali and pork sisig. Our server even gave us a big bowl of complimentary white rice with our dinner. The food was all very delicious and authentic! My favorite was the lechon kawali which was super crispy and juicy. My partner-​in-​dine preferred the pork sisig. We were so stuffed that we had to take some of the food home. They also serve Philippine beer. And even with the party going on, the food came out quickly. Authentic and tasty Filipino dishes at reasonable prices! Wish I could come here every day.

Went here with the gf Saturday late night with the gf. Had a great time watching the people song karaōke. Tried the seafood balls which were great (seemed to have the consistency of mini corn dogs, but maybe that was the Red Horse and San Miguel’s influence.) The girlfriend and I shared the mussels (wet pussy?) And those were bomb. Will definitely be back.

There was a review earlier here that’s sums it up perfectly for me too… so I quote — Fun. Filling. Family. The hosts was very inviting, we felt like part of their family, and had a very good time… we ended up doing karaōke for like 2 hours and they were always so accommodating, and boy, the food… one dish is enough for 3 people, and they mentioned it in that at the beginning so we could plan accordingly. it tastes good too… will recommend it!

If you’re looking for a hangout place with delicious and reasonably priced food, friendly staff, and free kareoke, Carding’s is the spot! Thank you for a great night. Wish we couldve stayed longer, but we will come back here if we’re in Vegas again.

My friends and I were looking for a new place to have fun and sing some karaōke. This is NOT the place. The KJ’s are not even real DJ/KJ’s, so the music and singers sound horrible. Plus, the karaōke songs they have are really bad versions — you know, the unprofessional synthesizer kind of versions. The location is kind of scary as well. It’s a dark, run-​down area which hasn’t quite been developed yet. Food was fair, but took a long time to come out. DJ’s don’t have a clue what to play, or how to adjust things. Maybe a good place for trashy-​karaōke singing.

so, Hubby wanted to try them out. so we cruzzed around until they opened, low and behold they weren’t open yet. we stayed for about 30 more minutes and still no show. so we ended up eating thai food next door. hubby was sooo annoyed and disappointed. :-(

Fun. Filling. Family. These three words pretty much sum up my experience here. There is karaōke going and people are super good at it, it’s crazy! The food is amazing too, I had the adobo fried rice and wings. The girls working here do a great job at making you feel like part of their family and have made a new friend and regular!

We actually came here since Café de Cebu down the street ran out of Lechon Kawali (Filipino style fried crispy pork belly.) How dare they, right?! Our friend (Jeff V.) wanted to take us on a Filipino food tour and since Café de Cebu couldn’t deliver — we gave this place a shot! It’s an added bonus that they are open from 3PM until 4AM and serve food throughout their business hours — perfect for all of those late nights and early Vegas mornings.
A family-​run business; they quickly helped us feel right at home. Still basking in their grand opening a month ago, the waitress Crystal and owner Rocky were full of personality and really sweet. The ambiance here is like your typical legit Filipino spot — casual, dimly-​lit and homey; almost like you’re dining in someone’s home but fitted with: hip music (top 40/​EDM/​Filipino hits), a dance floor, strobe lights and a full wall projector with speakers for all of your entertainment, dancing and Karaōke needs. Unfortunately no one in my party had the guts to sing, so we went straight to business and ordered a slew of authentic goodies!
Lechon Kawali (Filipino style fried crispy pork belly) $ 11 — This dish always seems to run out at great Filipino joints, so get it while you can! We ended up ordering 2 rounds! My whole party enjoyed the roasted, deep fried, extra crispy fried pig belly (it was slightly overcooked, so a little dry) but their house made vinegar sauce took this dish to another level! It helped add some moisture back to the pork belly and you will want to dip everything in that sauce! ⁴⁄₅
Original Pork Sisig (Deep fried pork belly chopped with onions and jalapeño) $ 13 — Served on a sizzling platter, this dish stayed piping hot and delicious! I enjoyed the subtle acid of the vinegar which created a nice layer of flavor and the texture of the pork belly was extra crispy! I also liked the flavor that the jalapeño added to the dish! ⁵⁄₅
«Wet Pussy» Creamy Garlic Mussels (Green half shell green mussels baked with garlic and cream, served on a sizzling platter.) $ 12 — It’s pretty sad when none of your friends believe you when you tell them — that’s the actual name of the dish written on the menu! LOL! Guys. I’m for real not making it up. We ended up having a lot of fun with it in restaurant though. :p It was bubbling hot, super creamy and garlicky! It’s a nice variation of the classic Japanese version of baked mussels that most of us are use to. My party inhaled it even though we were all stuffed! ⁴⁄₅
Bihon Guisado Con Lechon (Bihon noodles stir-​fried with garlic, vegetables, shrimp and lechon kawali (fried pork belly) $ 11 — This is my first time having Bihon noodles and it wasn’t bad! Jeff V. really liked it and gave it his thumbs up. I honestly prefer the clear «Pancit» type of noodles — but the flavor of this dish was good. ³⁄₅
Garlic Fried Rice (Jasmine rice fried with garlic and egg bits) $ 8 — The rice was lightly aromatic, but super moist. My party enjoyed eating the rice with the lechon kawali — great combination! Only a minor complaint is that I wish the garlic bits were fried a little more brown to offer more garlic flavor and it could definitely use more egg! ³⁄₅
We ended the evening with Halo Halo (traditional Filipino style dessert) $ 5 — Their version is not like a traditional halo halo topped with ice cream. It’s served in a clear plastic cup and topped high so it was slightly difficult to get to the goods down below. Also my party all agreed that there was far too much ice; it was hard to enjoy the sweet flavor and texture of the toppings and we sure missed a nice scoop of creamy ice cream on top! ²⁄₅
You bet we stuffed our bellies to the max and we’ll be back soon! The environment is a great spot to bring all of your foodie adventurers to dine family-​style, sing, dance and laugh the night away!

Highly recommend this place, i tried their special mix balls platter and pancit canton topped with fried pork as garnish, friendly staff and personally greeted by DJ Mar!

It was Saturday night, we were in Vegas, and we were looking for good Filipino food and karaōke, though not necessarily in that order. We found Carding’s Tambayan on Unilocal and couldn’t be more excited.
Open until 4, with plenty of space for our large party of 12+, I can’t stop raving about how great this joint was.
We had pork sisig, chicken and shrimp pancit, lechon kawali, pork sinigang, and enough drinks all around to put down an elephant. Hands down, one of the best Filipino dining experiences I’ve ever had. It felt like I was visiting someone’s family home, and the owner made us all feel very welcome.
Karaōke and the dance floor were the highlight of the evening, with a DJ who could find whatever you asked him for, performing slick sound engineering on the sly. Everyone in the party felt like superstars!
5/​5, and only because I can’t give more than 5 stars!

Great service, generous portions, and super authentic dishes. I love this place. Their chicken wings are off the chain (the best I’ve had in Las Vegas) and their Kilawin Hipon is to die for. There is a full service bar, karaōke, a good sized dance floor, and strobe light to go with it. I plan to come back again and again since the food tastes so damn good. AND they stay open until 4pm or later in the morning (perfect for after hours from the Vegas club life).

The special chicken wings are my go to! It’s just the right amount of sweet and spicy. I definitely recommend trying the pork sisig, it’s the best I’ve ever had! The bartender knows how to make a great drink! Make sure you say hello ;)

Awesome family style restaurant. Come enjoy authentic Filipino food! There’s a dance floor for all you cha-​cha sliders, and you know they have karaōke!!! They also have catering options as well! :)
