Ling Nam Philippines Menu Prices 2026
Before you head to Chinatown for a bowl of beef wonton noodles, it helps to know current Ling Nam Philippines menu prices, since this is one of the country’s oldest noodle houses and portions, prices, and branch offerings can vary quite a bit depending on where you order.
Ling Nam has been serving hand-pulled noodles, congee, and dim sum since the 1950s, and it’s built its reputation on Cantonese-style comfort food rather than trendy fusion dishes. Customers typically come for the beef wonton noodles, siopao, and congee dishes that have stayed largely the same for decades even as the brand has expanded well beyond its original Chinatown location.

Prices above are sourced from Ling Nam’s foodpanda delivery listings and may run slightly higher than what you’d pay dining in at the branch itself, since delivery platforms typically add a markup. Rates can also vary by branch, size, and ongoing promos, so treat these as a reliable guide rather than a fixed price list.
About Ling Nam Philippines
Ling Nam traces its roots to 1950, when Tomas Fung opened the original Ling Nam Noodle Restaurant on Zacateros Street in Santa Cruz, Manila, later moving to its long-time home on T. Alonzo Street in Binondo in 1965. It’s widely considered one of the pioneering panciteria (noodle house) brands in the country, known especially for hand-pulled lamian noodles and its beef wonton noodle soup.
In 2022, Fruitas Holdings acquired the Ling Nam chain and has since expanded it to dozens of locations nationwide, moving it beyond its original Chinatown footprint into malls and standalone branches across Metro Manila and other cities. Despite the expansion, the core menu noodle soups, congee, siopao, and dim sum has stayed close to its original Cantonese comfort-food roots.
Popular Items To Try
- Beef Wonton Noodles – the dish Ling Nam is best known for, combining slow-cooked beef with handmade wontons and fresh egg noodles
- Halo Congee – a loaded congee topped with meatballs, kidney, liver, raw egg, and crispy wonton chips
- Asado Siopao – a steamed bun filled with tender pork asado, a longtime bestseller
- Hakaw – classic shrimp dumplings wrapped in translucent rice dough
- Signature Fried Chicken – crispy on the outside, juicy inside, sold by the half or whole bird
- Tai Pao – a larger steamed bun packed with bola-bola, Chinese sausage, and egg
Deals, Promos, and Discounts
Ling Nam periodically runs delivery-platform promos, such as percentage-off deals and peso discounts on minimum orders through foodpanda. These promos rotate and are usually time-limited or app-exclusive, so it’s best to check the Ling Nam page on foodpanda or GrabFood, or Ling Nam’s official Facebook page, for what’s currently running before you order.
Price and Value for Money
Ling Nam sits in the mid-range for Chinese comfort food in the Philippines not as cheap as a turo-turo noodle stall, but noticeably more affordable than upscale Chinese restaurants, especially for solo or family-style noodle and congee orders. The bigger-format items, like the whole Signature Fried Chicken or the Yang Chow Fried Rice good for six, tend to offer the best value per person if you’re ordering for a group.
What Regulars Order
Long-running reviews of Ling Nam consistently circle back to two things: the beef in the wonton noodles and the size of the wontons themselves, both of which regulars describe as generous compared to competitors. The beef wonton noodles in particular get called out often enough that it’s clearly the anchor order for most first-time visitors, rather than something that just happens to be popular.
Feedback on delivery orders is more mixed than dine-in reviews, with occasional complaints about broth arriving underseasoned or dim sum not holding up as well after transit a common issue with soup-based dishes ordered for delivery rather than something specific to Ling Nam’s kitchen. Congee, on the other hand, tends to travel well and is frequently mentioned as a safer delivery order than the noodle soups.
Dining Experience and Service
Ling Nam operates as a casual, sit-down restaurant at its flagship Binondo branch, with a straightforward, no-frills dining room suited to quick meals rather than long, leisurely dinners. Most branches also offer takeout, and delivery is available through foodpanda and similar platforms across multiple branch locations. The atmosphere is generally described as family-friendly, consistent with its long history as a neighborhood noodle house rather than a fine-dining destination.

Ling Nam has expanded to multiple branches across Metro Manila and other cities since the 2022 Fruitas acquisition, including its original flagship in Binondo, Manila, plus locations such as Banawe Street in Quezon City and Lucky Chinatown Mall.
