Ka Familia Filipino fusion Restaurant

This was my first experience with this type of food, just keep that in mind.

When we walked into the restaurant, the first thing we saw was a couple performing hits of the 70s and 80s (think Kenny Rogers, Dolly Parton and similar). Not sure if it’s a regular occurrence on Saturdays or just a one off. They were quite good but the volume was loud to the extent that we could not carry a proper conversation at our table. There was no break for the duration of our visit, maybe it could be considered to have 15 minutes per hour at a lower volume or just regular background music.

The staff was very friendly and helpful with explaining the dishes. The menu is limited but has a enough to offer to satisfy everyone.

There were two fairly large groups of people at the restaurant, so the service was a bit slow, especially the main course. Not sure if it was in the kitchen or the front staff but it did take quite a while to get our food.

I ordered sautéed beef with broccoli and based on that title, I was expecting the main ingredients to be beef and broccoli. I was half right in this assumption and while the broccoli was tasty, the very limited amount of beef was disappointing. Again, I’m not familiar with this type of cuisine but at a $22 price point, I was expecting more than what was essentially a medley of vegetables with a sprinkling of beef.

We also had the crispy pats, which looks impressive and delicious (see attached photo) but is definitely a meal size suitable for sharing as was suggested to us. The accompanying sauces were very good.

Desserts were standard but at a decent price.

I was really debating if I should give 3 or 4 stars. The staff was friendly and the food was tasty but I just can’t get past the price point for the amount of food we received. My wife did enjoy everything and will probably be back but it was not for me.

We had a very pleasant experience at this Filipino restaurant tonight. The staff were both efficient and amusing. We shared a platter of assorted appetizers ($16) followed by a pork dish (a little too salty) and a Filipino variant of Pad Thai. The restaurant is beautiful, and is sufficiently quiet for conversation. $70 for two with tip.

Went for dinner here with friends. Service was exceptional, with very attentive staff. Between appetizers and main courses we had poultry, beef, pork, and seafood. All food was excellent. Highly recommended.

This restaurant is truly a hidden gem! Food is amazing and presentation is definitely top notch. The owner is so welcoming and so helpful as it was our first time ever trying Filipino food. I really love this place and it will be my new regular spot. Do not miss out and get yourself here to try their food asap!
