    Crispy Pata
    Wil S.

    Came here with the family yesterday and I really wanted to leave a review, so here it is. I have to start by saying that the Crispy Pata here is the best ive had in comparison to all filipino restaurants ive been in. Crispy, soft, and flavorful you will not even try look for a vinegar sauce nor liver sauce(Mang Thomas) to go with it. In addition, their Kare kare, palabok, and sisig was also amazing. My family ordered two huge plates of Cajun seafood,however, I pretty much ignored it and ate the filipino dishes. Clean establishment and nice classic song vibes.

    Such a unique concept to have filipino food and seafood boil in one spot so we've been planning to go for some time now. Glad we finally got the chance. We chose the package $45.99 for 1/2lb. of shrimp, clams, mussels, and comes with corn, sausages and choice of rice or fries. It said good for 2 but it was enough for more. We added crispy pata and loved that they cut it for us, so crispy and juicy and the dipping sauce was fire!!! Plenty of parking, good service (with some karaoke on the side). Will definitely come back!!!

    This place was very good. I like the special sauce. It's like a combination sauce. The food was fresh hot made to order. I appreciate that you are not overly served so you can go back for different varieties. The first round I had shrimp mussels crawfish the second round I just wanted more muscles tried to quail eggs that was unique. They were a little bit more bouncy the white part but they had a really creamy yolk. The flavoring as I said was on point restaurant was clean service was fast the time we went in there was not too many people which was nice and they're right next to a Thai spot inside the same building, which was kind of cool but like I say, give it a try and you decide be aware. The parking spot is very packed in the front, but if you go behind the restaurant, you'll find more parking.

    I've had seafood boil at a lot of different restaurants and used to work as a waitress at The Boiling Crab, and Cajun Ni Kuya tops ALL. When you walk in, the interior is bright and clean. We came around 5pm and it was empty so we were able to be seated right away. First off, AYCE seafood boil for $38.99?? Unheard of. Plus open mic karaoke Friday and Saturday nights? It's the most ideal way to spend a weekend evening. We ordered ours with "Kuya's way" (house mix) and it was so flavorful, but not too salty/overwhelming. Everything was perfectly cooked, which was nice as many places tend to overcook seafood boil. Also a really nice touch that you can add boiled eggplant, which I haven't seen before. In addition to the impressive seafood boil, they have many filipino classics like bangus, sisig, kaldereta, and more. The sizzling sisig we ordered came out literally sizzling on a hot skillet and the flavor was incredible. I've already started craving this spot since I went, can't wait to be back soon!

    Came to try this place out and was not expecting a karaoke night! Its quite loud, but still very pleasant and friendly. It was so busy that we didn't see the waitresses much and had to ask for water a couple of times, but everything came out ok. We ordered the seafood platter for 2, and it was more than enough food. The shrimp was maybe a little overcooked, but I figure that's unavoidable in the serving style. The French fries were super fresh (and way too hot to eat immediately), and went well with the Kuya's way sauce Overall, very happy with the experience!

    Came here for the all-you-can-eat seafood boil and it was awesome. Kuya's seasoning was so good. Every plate came out super hot, in a good way. Wish I could've eaten more, but I was stuffed after 2 rounds. I'm definitely coming back for more when I'm craving some seafood!

    Here's a polished version you can use for a review: --- The food at Cajun Ni Kuya is absolutely delicious--they did not disappoint! I loved their Cajun shrimp, crispy pata, nilagang baka, fried liempo, pork sisig, fried chicken and shrimp shanghai. Everything was flavorful and satisfying. Highly recommend! They also have open mic karaoke where you can sing right from your seat--no pressure like being on stage, which is perfect if you have stage fright. The host is funny, and the atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back!

    we ordered the seafood platter, the seafood boil flavor was good but I wish it wasn't so dry. My favorite thing about seafood boils are when the it is drenched in sauce. The portion was a bit small for the price so I'd recommend just ordering the seafood by the lb I guess. The vibes were great though there's karaoke and Filipino dishes you can order as well

    Chantel A.

    I definitely recommend Kusina ni Kuya. It's a Filipino Restaurant and has Filipino Street Foods on Fri and Sat. They also have Karaoke. The food is really delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, and the portions are just right. The staff are very kind and welcoming, which makes the whole dining experience even better. The place has a nice atmosphere that feels comfortable whether you're dining with family, friends, or just grabbing a meal for yourself. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and overall it's a spot worth checking out if you're looking for good food and great service.

    We've had this spot on our list for a while and decided to have dinner here finally! Parking is super tiny but we managed to luckily find a spot up front. We got there shortly before 6pm and were the only ones there! Surprisingly empty for the time we went. Seems they have a separate connecting food area next door for take out only? Not sure but it was dark in that side of the room. We were greeted by Jonas who was very attentive and always made sure to check on us which was great. Food itself was okay. We ordered some garlic butter shrimp, flavor was amazing but scorching hot and difficult to eat. I almost wish it was just served in a bowl so that I can scoop the butter onto my rice which I was already doing. The fried chicken, sweet potato fries, and butterfly shrimp were pretty okay. The Calamansi juice is a must! I always go for it whenever a restaurant has it in their menu. There was another lady worker who seemed unfriendly and didn't really greet us and just walked away but other than that, Jonas did a great job serving us. IG: @ammysalamii

It's a small hole in the wall place. It's cute, but don't expect a fine dining restaurant experience. They're currently advertising Dungeness crab at $23 per pound, but you don't know how much your piece weighs. Mine ended up costing almost $70, and it was definitely not worth it. That didn't include any sides either, I had to pay extra to add corn and potatoes. I also ordered garlic bread on the side, and it was the worst garlic bread I've ever had. It was soft, soggy, and had absolutely no crunch to it. The kids' chicken tender meal only came with two very small pieces of chicken. I was expecting more for the price. There was only one staff member serving the entire restaurant, and you could tell she was getting overwhelmed. Overall, it wasn't a pleasant experience, and for spending almost $200, I did not leave satisfied.

There was also an employee who told me he wouldn't serve me unless I took my water bottle back to the car, which felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. My family and I truly enjoy coming here, so I hope they continue the great quality and customer service we used to receive with the previous owners.
