    My wontons

    I first ate at J's kitchen when it was still at the mall. I had chicken adobo and liked it. Today was my first visit to its own restaurant and ordered chicken curry with a Taro drink recommended by my friendly server. Food and drink were very good. The curry sauce was, as advertised, both sweet and spicy. The chicken chunks were tender. The Taro drink kept giving me throat freeze, though, so finishing my meal took a bit. I walked in shortly after 11am. I was the first sit-down customer. I like the pastel purple interior and the space (I remember when this was the Beef Baron in the 1980s). My window seat was very comfortable. A radio station was playing in the background. Got to listen to a Tracy Chapman song. Crowds started coming in an hour later as I was leaving.

    SISIG FRIES

    This is for the combined JV's boba and J's kitchen restaurant Visited for one weekend and ate here twice. This place met all my Filipino food needs. Yes I'm Filipino but sometimes I like to not cook the food myself or beg my parents for it. JV was so nice and accommodating too! My bougie ass asked for ube coffee. They didn't have it BUT JV came out and offered to make taro coffee and we walked through almond milk and ice choices and she made it wonderfully!!!! We came in for the breakfast buffet, and it was amazing. The next day we came back for sinigang and adobo off the menu. We saw the sisig fries and HAD TO try them - they're all that is in that picture and MUCH MUCH MORE. What an amazing little gem this place is! I loved all the festive Halloween decor and great service. I'm coming back here any time I visit sierra vista. Highly highly recommend!

    The food was great and the service was courteous and fast. Went door dinner on Friday night and had no wait for seating. The serving sizes might not quite as large as what an average American restaurant might serve, but we had several appetizers as well (highly recommend!) and combined it was perfect.

    Halo halo

    Wonderful customer service! The lady was so kind, and accommodating. The food was amazing. Had the chicken adobo. Lumpia tastes just like home. And topped it off with a halo halo! (It was really good! They do use regular milk and not evaporated milk.)

    Yum! This was my first time having Filipino food and I am impressed. The restaurant is clean and neat and nicely decorated with purple accents. The owner/cook was on site and was greeting everyone and checking on us without feeling pushy. Food portions are decent and the fruit drinks are fantastic. The pancit pala ok had more of a fishy taste than expected so we won't get that one again. We were treated a nice orange sorbet after our meal. I don't know if that was a Father's Day special or a regular treat.

    Dinner Buffet options

    This is a hard review to write, because as much as I want to support local small businesses, I feel like my first time dining in was an absolute disaster. They have a very large dining space with purple and white decor everywhere. It was very clean. We came in for the dinner buffet which seems to change times and dates frequently - to me this isn't something I like about a restaurant. I prefer consistency with operating hours and knowing what type of food I'm going to have if I am going to take my family out to a restaurant (especially nowadays with everything so expensive). The inconsistency of restaurants here is a huge reason why they fail, we never know when they're open and what they're offering because their menu changes so often. I understand everyone has a family and a life, but you should hire trusted employees so that you stay consistent. We showed up at 5:30 Friday night for their buffet and they had two servers for the entire dining hall. They all looked incredibly flustered and it took us 45 minutes just to get water for our kids. The food was good, not exceptional, but fine. The options were quite limited for their dinner buffet but we were happy to see pancit and the pork belly. I was pretty disappointed they didn't have adobo chicken for their buffet, but the garlic shrimp was delicious. Our children are under 3 so they should have been free, but the server charged us for each one of them in her flustered state. She did fix the mistake but couldn't refund me so she had to pay me back in cash? It was all very strange. We often order takeout from them and it seems like we will continue doing that since they can't properly staff themselves for dinner. There was an employee just standing there in the middle of the bar who could have been helping the servers at least give guests their drinks, but she just stood there and smiled at everyone instead of working or helping out. Just seemed super unorganized. I wish them the best but they do need to learn how to operate a dining room and guest experiences.

    Sisig fries. To die for!
    Zukari R.

    The sisig frys are to die for! They even put in the extra time and effort to cut holes in the top of the takeout container so it stays crispy. I will definitely be back for more.

    Passion fruit tea & lumpias

    My go to spot when I'm craving Filipino food! Everything is delicious! Definitely will be back!

    Living in a small town there aren't many options for good eats! I was craving some pancit and lumpia and wasn't to sure where to go! I was recommended to J's Kitchen and I'm so happy that I did because it was absolutely amazing! I will be back!

    I still go there every now and again, cause I like the food and that girl doesn't work there anymore. I haven't seen her for months.

    I live in Tucson now and I have missed J's cooking. Her food truck has moved to the Boba tea place on fry Boulevard. So I stopped by to get some of that pork belly and some jalapeños wrapped in bacon decided to get some hibiscus tea while I was there. Y'all. This is the best! I didn't want rice so I got extra pork belly It is perfectly crisp! And these jalapeños! Huuuuge! It was so nice to see J again- she is still so kind and an EXCELLENT cook with great recipes. I'm so glad her truck was open while I was in town. I got some hibiscus tea from inside the boba place & it was fantastic. They were able to make it unsweetened and the flavor is exactly what my grandma used to make.

    Lumpia

    Very delicious and traditional Filipino food. I had chicken adobo and lumpia. Definitely good service and good pricing.

    Po' Boys To Geaux is a Mobile Food Service Trailer that frequents the Farmer's Market in Sierra…read moreVista as well as other venues in Cochise County. Run by Garrett Gahn, this neat little trailer is setup to make hot and cold sandwiches. The focus of the cuisine is Po Boy Sandwiches with a range of styles from Andouille to Shrimp to Ham, Turkey, Bacon to Vegan to hamburgers. My initial visit was a "Club" style sandwich, priced modestly at $7, with ham, turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise and onion on a toasted hoagie/Po Boy roll. Warm meat, crisp lettuce and a soft roll was what I received, sliced in half, and wrapped in deli paper as any proper sandwich is. Tasty, quality ingredients were stuffed into a warm roll that was both satisfying and filling. I knew it had to be decent prior to trying it as I saw people coming to just get a sandwich and then leave the Farmer's Market. The offerings are simple, cooked-to-order sandwiches, most for around $7 with soda and chips at a reasonable price of $1. Although I may not go out of my way to stop by, if I am in the vicinity of the Sierra Vista Farmer's Market, I will stop and pick up a Authentic (for Arizona) Po Boy Sandwich - or at least I know I can receive a respectable meal if I were to see Garrett selling food elsewhere. All-in-all, Po' Boys To Geaux is A-Ok! Finial Rating: 3.5 Stars Food: 3.5 Stars Quality 3.5 Stars Service 3 Stars Cleanliness 3 Stars (from what I could see)
