🏆 TRIPADVISOR TRAVELLERS’ CHOICE – BEST OF THE BEST 2026 🇵🇭🇮🇹
Hindi po ito pagyayabang. This is a moment of gratitude, pride, and inspiration.
From a simple dream of sharing Filipino food and culture here in Rome, Italy, to receiving one of the highest recognitions from Tripadvisor — honestly, hindi namin in-expect na aabot kami dito.
To everyone who supported us, dined with us, recommended us, shared our posts, left us reviews, and believed in what we do — maraming, maraming salamat po. This achievement belongs to you as much as it belongs to us.
And to our bashers, critics, and those who doubted us — thank you as well. Whether you intended to or not, you gave us another reason to improve, work harder, and prove to ourselves that we can go further. Every criticism became a lesson, and every challenge became motivation.
Let’s take a moment to understand what this award means. Only a very small percentage of restaurants worldwide receive Tripadvisor’s Best of the Best recognition. And to be among those recognised, as a FILIPINO RESTAURANT in Rome, Italy, makes this even more special.
Imagine that. Filipino food. Filipino hospitality. Filipino talent. Representing our country on an international stage.
Sa lahat ng mga kababayan natin, wherever you are in the world, sana maging proud din kayo sa achievement na ito. Hindi lang ito para sa Tambayan. It’s a little victory for Filipino cuisine, for our culture, and for every Filipino who dreams of making a name beyond our own borders.
We should celebrate every Filipino who succeeds, because every achievement opens a door for the next one.
We are not sharing this to say that we are better than anyone. We are sharing this to show that Filipinos can make it, even in a highly competitive international industry.
From Pilipinas to Rome, from our kitchen to the world — this is for all of us.
Maraming salamat, Rome. Maraming salamat, Philippines. ❤️
THIS IS OUR WIN. THIS IS A FILIPINO WIN. 🇵🇭
With pride and gratitude,
TAMBAYAN – Filipino Restaurant & Cocktail Bar
Rome, Italy
