Barkada (Hollywood, CA)

Barkada is a Filipino-inspired restaurant with a club vibe that highlights the basic tradition of filipino dining and on certain nights, you'll enjoy the live entertainment.  It exhibits the classic Filipino dishes with a modern twist and an excellent display of culinary art.  The flavor of course is what you would expect at your Lola's (tagalog for grandma) dining table. 
During our visit to Barkada, we tried a few of their most popular dishes.  We started with their Fried Chicken Wings with Adobo sauce and it was so delicious.  This was truly a satisfying selection for starters.  Their Shrimp Eggrolls and the Roasted Brussel Sprouts were equally tasty.

For the main course, we tried the house favorite Steak Tartare and the Short Rib Trifecta, which comprised of 3 classic Filipino dishes - Mechado, Kare Kare and Adobo.  
The APpventure experience isn't complete without trying the delectable desserts so we tried the popular Ube Cheesecake as well as the Buko Pandan Cheesecake.  Both are proportionately tasteful to each bite.  You will leave Barkada with an APpventure that you will truly remember.  ​
