Food is maintained with great flavor and quality. Food place has expanded its space. Clean. Friendly service.

Haven't been here in a while. Stopped by to order some food for the amazing nurses on base. Ordered Bicol express, sisig and kare-kare. Also ordered a couple trays for an upcoming event. They were so delicious. It takes me back to my childhood memories in my home country. Agnes took my order. She was friendly, helpful and so patient with me. I love that they make you feel at home. She's from Pampanga, the Philippines' culinary capital known for flavorful and yummy dishes. Place is small but perfect for take outs and catering. There are some grocery items also available. I highly recommend them. read more

Friendly staff and warm welcome. Came in for Halo-Halo and I asked if I can customize some toppings and I was told No. I've never had a place that serves Halo Halo no be able to customize. That was the first ding. When I got handed my order, it was already watery (which only usually happens a bit later when the ice melts and in the middle of eating it) so the consistency wasn't right. Also, not much variety of toppings as I had to search and dig for any beans which are my favorite and it was mainly big chunks of banana and nata de coco and a few jackfruit. The scoop of ice cream was so nominal it melted before I could throughly enjoy it. Overall, not worth the hefty price tag. But I had to try it to find out. Maybe you can give it a try and give it a shot yourself if you're ever craving Halo Halo. read more

Katna's Kitchen - First time here - Filipino Near Me - Fairfield, California

When we arrived at the Filipino Island Fest in Alameda around dinner time, we could smell the yummy BBQ that came from Katna's Kitchen. There was an extremely long line. Thankfully, my daughter had been standing in line and was half way to the front of the line. It was still a long wait, and they were running out of certain dishes. By the time my daughter ordered, there was no more BBQ. We ended up ordering Sisig & Rice, Lumpia, and Lechon Kawali & Rice - not our first choice, we wanted the BBQ. And after all that waiting in line, we had to wait around 20 minutes for our food. We got one dish + the lumpia. Then we still had to wait because they said the rice would be another 30 minutes to finish cooking. Sigh! I get it! It was a big event, and there were a lot of people. They probably weren't prepared, and we got the bum end of the deal. The sisig was like adobo... not impressed by it at all. The lechon kawali was better but wasn't as crispy as it should have been. This was sadly my first experience with Katna's Kitchen. We saw them again at Manila Munchies in American Canyon. Smaller crowd so we decided to give them another try. We ordered the BBQ Pork with pancit. The food was better. Glad we got to try their BBQ. The customer service is good. The gal that took our order was nice. Our second visit to their vendor booth was definitely better than the first. read more

So went there last week with my bf and we were really excited to try their food since it looked so good on IG and the reviews were pretty good. I really wanted to order everything since there was so much to choose from. The staff were really friendly and even let me taste the food before buying. So from there since I did that I trusted every thing else was good but unfortunately it's wasn't. I ordered the beef tapa and it was savory and sweet to me and like I said I sampled it so I ordered it. I also, ordered the beef caldereta since it just came out and that was just ok. Oily but not really any flavor. My bf order the dinaguan that was oily than usual and also got the Bicol express that was ok to me but he enjoyed both. Which where my 2 stars are coming from. Then I ordered the Shanghai lumpia and I think they have a special flavor they make it and it wasn't for me either had only 2and also order the vegetable fried lumpia and the wrapper inside was fully cooked smh ‍ ordered the 1 pork bbq and 1 chicken bbq and they were both cold inside after I saw her heat it up the first time and then I told the lady that looked like that was running the place that the bbq was cold and she asked one of the staff to reheat it. Smh ‍ it should have been the right temperature the first place because I could've gotten sick being that it was cold PORK AND CHICKEN !! Then lastly I also ordered the mango slushie smh it was def a slush but the taste was off .. it didn't taste like mango and more like a powder flavor versus like a fresh mango from the pi if that's what's they were going for as flavor. Like I said I had high hopes for this place and was going to recommend this to my friends and family but after this experience I don't think so. We spent at least $80 on this meal and it's $80 we can't get back smh ‍ instead for dinner we went to concord to Isla to redeem our Filipino experience which was much better even tho the price was a bit higher but at least the food was GREAT tasting. Sorry, I really did want to come back here but not after what we both experienced. 1 star for the friendly staff and another star because at what my bf ordered he was good with it. read more

Reading all the reviews speaking of the friendly, welcoming customer service and great food made me excited to try this place out. We placed an online order and made a 40 minute drive to pick up our food. When we arrived, I stood at the register for quite a while with no greeting or offer of assistance. It wasn't until I asked where to pick up my online order that I was briefly acknowledged and handed my bag of food. Although the taste of the food was good, I was disappointed since I had ordered breakfast plates that were supposed to come with garlic rice, and I was given plain white rice instead. I would have been okay with it if I was told on pickup, and wasn't just surprised once I arrived home. Although disappointed I would be willing to try this place again if we were in the area, but don't think I would make a 40 min trip out for it again. read more

Katna's Kitchen is a hidden gem in Fairfield that brings the heart and soul of the Philippines straight to your plate. What started as a humble pop-up has now grown into a cozy, sari-sari store-style eatery that lives up to its name. When you're here, you're literally eating at Katna's kitchen! She's usually there cooking in the back, too! The vibe is warm, welcoming, and full of Filipino hospitality. It's a small, family-run business that radiates love through every dish. Seating is limited both inside and out, but that just adds to the charm. You feel like you've been invited over to your auntie's house for a home-cooked meal. Definitely authentic Filipino comfort food at its best. The menu at their home base is even more expansive than what you'll find when they're at pop-up events like Foodieland. Think classic dishes like adobo, pancit, lumpia, kare-kare, and sinigang--all cooked with care and bursting with flavor. Every bite tastes like home! Don't leave without trying their halo-halo!! Hands down, my favorite dessert! It's a perfect balance of creamy, icy, sweet goodness that's incredibly refreshing and satisfying; esp on a hot day. They also cater for special occasions. Katna's Kitchen is open daily, and while seating is limited, it's absolutely worth the visit. Whether you're a longtime fan of Filipino cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. Trust! Support local, eat well, and feel at home. Happy eating! read more

Visited this food stand at the Filipino Island Fest in Alameda this past weekend. Spent at least an hour waiting in line, and 25 more minutes for the food to be ready (the wait times quoted by staff were way off). We ordered the lechon plate with pancit and a side of pork lumpia. Not our first or second choices, but that's all they had in stock around 5pm, three hours before the event ended. The food was made fresh, the pancit peppery with a nice mix of ingredients, the lechon with decent flavor but some pieces a bit tough, the lumpia pretty standard, crispy on the outside but a somewhat loose filling. All in all, the food was fine, but not worth the crazy wait. read more

Was in the area and craving Filipino food. Found this place on yelp so thought I would check it out. I got a 2 item combo plate so I chose Bistek and Chicken Adobo. My dad passed away 2+ years ago and I haven't found a bistek that tastes just like his... until now. Almost made me cry. Also got some longanisa and shrimp chips. Thank you for the delicious food and making me miss my dad sooo much!!! read more

I was craving halo halo so I went here. I was excited to see they had a buko flavored one. I also got a kare kare. I usually like it made with oxtail. This one was pork I think, but the meat was really soft. the kare kare sauce was thick and had perfect peanut butter flavor. The guy at the cashier was nice. I would come here again. Theres no inside seating but there are two outdoor tables. read more

Hands down the best Filipino food in the Bay Area, dare I say even better than home-made. All the food is cooked and kept in warmers, ready for you to choose from. My favorite was the kare-kare with a side of bagoong. The lechon kawali was also top notch. My only note would be that I wasn't a fan of the rice. Jasmine rice would be a better option. So maybe, just buy entrees and cook rice at home. I recommend taking your food to-go, as there isn't much inside seating. You can also do some shopping for Filipino snacks, apparel, and trinkets. I'll definitely be back! read more

Went to their pop-up at a Hawaiian festival obviously because I was feeling a craving for something Filipino food. I was looking at their food menu pictures and looked so yummy. I figured if I stand in line before they actually open I would get ahead of everyone and get some fresh cook food while its hot off the stove or grill. Anyways, I ordered the Lechon Kawali it looked simple and the portion looked more than enough. My order looked real delish but I hate say it but the lechon was dry even the dipping sauces didn't help to help go down any easier and as for the other half of the order it too was dry. Perhaps as the day moved along it may have gotten better...idk Maaaybe I'll try again sometime. read more

Katnas Kitchen has grown from a food truck at local events to a storefront, and we've loved watching the journey. The service is always friendly, the owners are welcoming, and the team takes care of every customer like family. Prices are reasonable, and the portion sizes are solid. We've had the pancit, adobo, halo-halo, and even some of the breakfast options, all flavorful and cooked right. If you're near Travis AFB or anywhere along Air Base Parkway and craving Filipino food, this is the spot to check out. There's a few tables inside and a couple outside. It's usually pretty laid-back unless it gets busy, but either way they're always ready to serve up something salty, sweet, and delicious. They also sell shirts and snacks inside, which gives the place a cool local vibe. Support local. Eat well. Follow me and friend me for more honest reviews and real local gems. read more

Just outside Travis AFB main entrance, this humble Filipino hole-in-the-wall store has a ton to offer! They have Filipino snacks, memorabilia/souvenirs, and awesome Filipino food! We had the Sinigang, Pinakbet, Adobong Pusit, Paksiw na Lechon, Chicken Adobo, and Pork Kilawin...and it didn't disappoint! The food was good and very delicious. My daughter is very particular when having her Sinigang and there are only a few places we go to outside of our home for Sinigang when we don't have it cooked at home, and this place was a thumbs up for her. On top of the regular Filipino dishes, they also have Filipino street food! We tried the Isaw and pork bituka and were pretty good too. The store owners are very friendly and helpful. We wil definitely be stopping by again next time we make a trip out to Travis. read more

A hidden gem in Fairfield. They make fresh bibingka and puto bumbong. You can also choose from pork and chicken skewers, bistek, paksiw lechon, etc. We came to their store on a Sunday and they might have different options daily. They have lumpia and street food like fishball, okoy, all the yummy food that most of us miss from the Philippines. Freshly cooked! read more

Without a doubt, I always tell everyone that needs Filipino catering to consider ordering from Katnas Kitchen. We've been a patron of hers since 2019 when she was doing catering from her home (way before the food event days) and have always been pleased with all her dishes. When I heard that Katna finally found her brick and mortar I was beyond thrilled. She has a great selection of Filipino food options and on weekends the resturant does Filipino Street Food - fresh to order. One thing to keep in mind is that the location is kind of out of the way (in the shopping center next to TAFB) but I can assure you that when the breakfast and lunch rush hits... You've gotta get there for the food as soon as it hits those steamers because they go quick. The dining area is small but they've recently placed some tables on the outside to accommodate more people. The inside is clean and has a ton of dried food items and Filipino culture attire. My favorites to order from her catering is the oxtail kare kare (super tender), her pancit, and lumpia. I'm also a fan of her bistek, tocino, and all the street food offerings (kwek kwek is fire). read more

Being a former military, I appreciate that this is so close to the Air Force base. How many times I wish I had Filipino food while I was at training. It's a small business with a few options for dining inside or outside. Not for larger groups. Friendly Filipino service. Snacks and souvenirs available for purchase. Lots of drink options. For a combination one item plate and a large order and a dessert plate totaled 35.96. Not bad if looking for pinoy eats. read more

I have gone here when I am too lazy to cook and want some Filipino food. My favorite is tortang talong. I have also had their pinakbet. Let me tell you when I say I am picky about Filipino food. My husband went to get me lunch one day and they didn't have my favorite tortang talong, but they went above and beyond and cooked some up. Now that's customer service. I like supporting this local mom and pop restaurant. They serve delicious and fresh food to fill your belly. The lady who has served me many times is so sweet. I have to ask her name next time.

Katna's Kitchen - Halo halo - Filipino Near Me - Fairfield, California

Katna catered for my recent event and the food was delicious. My guest kept asking me who catered cuz they love the food. The food had the Kapampangan palette, rich & savory taste! The Kare-Kare with their home made shrimp paste.. exceptional! I ordered Palabok, Beef Caldareta, Pinakbet, BBQ Chicken, Pork Sisig, Lechon. My fav is their tender Tapsilog! It's hard to find good tender Beef Tapa around... It's not like other places like Beef Jerky. If you want something cool.. they have Halo-Halo, Buko Pandan, Mais Con Yellow! The owners are super friendly & inviting! Thank you Katna for opening in Fairfield. They're close to Travis AFB. Check them out! read more

Katna's is a gem! Located by Travis AFB and surrounded by other neighborhood restaurants/gyms/massagey businesses lol one stop shop over there. Even at the end of the night, Ate is still dishing out some delicious food items! Chicken afritada was tasty, but a bit sweet for me, also had some larger size proteins and very nice potatoes and veggies. I opted w/ garlic fried rice which we found flavorful but a bit on the chewy side but nonetheless tasty! Also ordered chicken adobo which came w/ potatoes which maybe Kapampangan style. I appreciated it but hubby was surprised lol The adobo itself had good taste, but we're used to a more vinegary base, shoyu adobo, but that being said chicken was tender. They loved the pork lumpia, tasted nice even w/o a dip and we had surprise banana turon Ate threw in! So nice and generous of her. Great and generous front house service! The shop had cute little snacks and hard-to-find items, like the DELIMONDO corn beef. Standard Filipino food prices and don't mind paying as food cost are always increasing esp in this economy. Love to support local businesses! I love my town! read more

I'm very confused about how this place has 4 stars. They were at a Filipino festival in Elk Grove yesterday. We chose them because they're supposedly really good. We got Sisig with rice and BBQ Pork with Pancit. The Pancit was really good, but the Sisig was mediocre at best. Very tender, but also very bland. The BBQ pork was good... but barely warm. Mediocre Sisig, very not fresh BBQ Pork, and good Sisig (which is included in the BBQ pork plate).... $56. That is insane, especially since I'm pretty sure the prices weren't listed. We'll definitely not be eating from Katna's again. read more

I feel so conflicted about this review. I was super excited when Katnas opened in my hometown and I wanted to love them so bad but my first visit left me disappointed. They're located in an old strip mall, not much around, so plenty of parking available. When I walked in, there was just one girl crocheting at the table. It seemed like a bother that she had to get up to help me, so our conversation was very lackluster and unenthusiastic. Almost all the trays of food were pretty filled, except the sisig. I almost missed it because the sisig had no color at all other than the browned meat. I was hoping for a brighter look, maybe some onions and peppers but I decided to give it a try anyways. I went with this and the chicken afritada as my options for the two item plate. I added a small side of kare kare and 1 pork bbq stick. The kare kare here is made with pork which was new to me. The girl seemed like she was careful to make sure i had equal meat and veggies and sauce but when I took it home, there was a giant pork bone and fat, barely any meat. Other than that, the sauce was sooooo good especially with the bagoong (shrimp paste). They give the bagoong to you on the side to add in yourself. This is very necessary but go light, esp if you're new to shrimp paste. It's a strong salty flavor. The chicken afritada was tender with chunks of potatoes and carrots, but there wasn't much flavor other than a light tomato sauce mixed with hella oil. This was swimming in grease. The pork bbq was actually good, tender and sweet, but had a good amount of fat mixed throughout. I like this though and felt this was worth the $4/stick. The sisig was not it. It didn't have the signature citrus, savory flavor that sisig is supposed to have. Their signature is supposed to be award winning, and when I tried it at the 626 night market, it was really good. But here..... hard pass. I had to take it home and redo it to make it tasty :( The two item plate isn't a bad deal, about $16 before tax and the portions are decent. They pack the entrees in small containers on the side, and the mains: pancit, rice or garlic rice, in its own container. I asked for half garlic rice and pancit but they were out. She said they only had fried rice.. so random but the fried rice was actually pretty good. The pancit is yummy too. They use the thicker canton noodles, which is my preference, and lots of tender veggies. I appreciate the lemon wedges they gave and how they packaged the food, but the overall quality and taste did not hit the mark. My total for everything came to $30 after tax. Even though my visit left me a bit sad, I plan to come back for a second try. I'm really hoping I'll be pleasantly surprised the next time! read more

EXCELLENT FILIPINO FOOD. You may have heard of Katna's Kitchen before - that awesome Filipino spot at 626 Night Market and Foodieland or maybe have heard it from your friends/family - but here it is in its physical location, I couldn't be any happier. Even though I don't live in the area, I made my way out to Fairfield for some of this delicious Filipino food! AMBIANCE: 4/5. Located in a quiet corner but with plenty of parking. As soon as you walk in, you see an open & clean restaurant with some indoor seating (several tables and surrounding chairs) and shelves against the walls with Filipino goodies and merch (canned goods, snacks, magnets, decors, etc.) that they are selling. Right in front, you'd see the food in a heated display case with the names of the dishes attached to the glass window. SERVICE: 5/5. We've been a customer of Katna's we've known of their business and since we've lived in the Bay Area - they without a doubt have some of the friendliest and most welcoming owners and staff! FOOD: 5/5. Katna's offers a variety of traditional comfort and also unique Filipino dishes, ranging from street food skewers to combination plates, all within reasonable prices. The calamansi slushie I had was so refreshing and was a perfect side to all the good savory dishes. Portions are big and the quality/authentic taste of this Kapampangan food will not disappoint! OVERALL: 5/5. All-in-all delicious food with friendly staff. Make sure you try it out if you're in the area and have a great dining experience (say hi to Agnes if she's there, she's wonderful and will make you feel so welcomed). I can't wait to be back for some more Katna's! read more

Tried out Katna's Kitchen from one of their stalls and I really really wanted this to be good. I had the bbq pork skewers and lumpia. I'd like to consider that being away from a kitchen had a part in the food being just okay but my problems were independent of that process. Both skewers I received had about a good amount of gristle and basically impossible to chew parts along with improperly rendered fat. The flavor was there and the lean pieces were nice but the bad parts completely overshadowed any merit. The lumpia was standard fare but excessively greasy, most likely as a result of improper drainage or overcooking. Some minors fixes regarding just better meat quality/trimming + taking that extra step on frying and this place should be golden. They nailed the flavor down but fall short on the foundation read more

Service was great, and the food was amazing. I loved the street food, especially because it is cooked fresh on the grill.

Not worth the drive. We were served old rice and BBQ, and the pancit didn't taste fresh. Their pandan smoothie was also disappointing, it tasted spoiled/panis. When I first tried their combo at Foodieland or the 626 Night Market, it was great. I didn't expect this kind of experience when I drove to their restaurant. read more

Just visited their stall at a fair in Daly City. Not only did we wait an hour in line but we waited an hour to get our food after ordering. They claimed to have award winning sisig but it was the most bland and expensive sisig I've ever had. Avoid the sisig it's not worth your time and money. read more

Made my way over to Katnas after seeing them at various events around the bay. I was looking forward to trying their food at the actual physical location l. I figured their food would be similar to what I saw at the different events. They had snacks, some clothes, and what I call knick Knicks for sale. They had numerous entrees available to mix and match to make a combo plate. I really wanted to like this place, but based on my first impression, I was a bit disappointed. The were generous with the rice but my entree left me hanging. I got their sinagang. Their halo halo was definitely a yummy delight. I didn't mind the price as it was quite filling. I'm hoping I just went on an off day and the next time I come back it'll be a better experience. read more

We are so pleased with our catering experience with Katna's Kitchen! In January, we ordered 7 party trays for a party in our home. The owner/manager was kind and very understanding as we placed our order somewhat last minute. They delivered everything (for a fee), and it was hot and ready to serve. The Kare Kare and Sisig were especially tasty - I had to make sure I set some aside for myself, before everyone packed up their leftovers to take home. We will definitely be returning for future catering needs! read more
