    Really enjoyed my visit here! It's hard to find a place that has both great boba and good Filipino food, but they do both really well here. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and homemade. The boba drinks were delicious and refreshing, and the food had great flavor and comfort-food vibes. The cafe itself is cute, clean, and welcoming, making it a nice spot to relax, eat, and hang out. Staff was friendly too. Definitely happy we found this place and I'll be coming back to try more from the menu!

    So glad to have finally made it to Kultura Cafe. I rarely cook Filipino food, especially the pork recipes. To indulge my mom, I buy her what she craves if I can't make it at home. She was so happy with her Beef Kaldereta. It was tender, not greasy, the chunks of meat were not fatty and had great flavor. She only wished there was a bigger serving. My husband and I enjoyed the Pork Belly Sisig plate. Not only was it massive, it was very tasty. Next time we will try their desserts and Lechon Kawali. Also the service was very polite, the chef came out to say hi and the cafe itself is very cute. I especially loved their custom wall illustrations of Filipino food.

    This is our second time eating at Kultura, under the new management. This is the first time bringing my mom to try the food. So far, I've been loving the food. Even though, the main plate options are limited, they have been good, very tasty, and the rice is always cooked well. The only feedback I'd give is the Chicken Adobe needs to simmer in the sauce a bit longer to capture the flavors. I do appreciate the extra sauce on the side, though. Let me not forgot that they offer off side dishes that often times can change (not sure how often), such as chicken sisig, palabok, etc. The 2 times we've been there, I always feel like I've been transported to a small restaurant in the Philippines. Very casual. The cook, Ricky, always comes out of the kitchen to serve our food in to-go containers, which is very convenient. We'll be sure to return. Tapsilog, here I come!

    First time here. We were craving some Filipino food and decided to try this place. It was good and we liked it. The service was where you order and find a seat. They were friendly and had some specials to choose from. The restaurant was really clean the bathroom too. If in the area again I'll be back again.

    Taro Brown Sugar Milk Tea

    Food was great! Service was quick and timely. The lighting could be a lot brighter inside the restaurant in my honest opinion, but the food more than makes up for it. I ordered the pork belly sisig plate, which comes with rice, an egg, pickled veggies and 2 Shanghai lumpia, which is quite generous. The sisig was crispy with a touch of heat (think spicy). The rice complements the flavors of the sisig really well. I ordered the brown sugar taro milk tea with boba! Solid drink. They can adjust the level of sweetness to your liking as well. There is no way this place should be near empty / slow at 3:30 pm. When I'm back in town, I'll definitely come here again. Locals, support your local restaurants!

    Mango Iced Tea with Boba

    This is such a cute little establishment that serves delicious Filipino food. Granted, I was not that hungry so I ordered 10 pc fish balls and a Mango Iced Tea with boba. The wait was a bit long though especially with a huge order right before me but it was worth the wait!! If you are not in a hurry to go anywhere and craving some Filipino food, this is a must place to stop by! There's plenty of tables for you to stay and eat too. You just don't find good Filipino food anywhere!

    Our first time here since the new management took over in 2023. Hankering for Tapsilog after Sunday's church and this was the place I thought of. Got in on opening time at 12 noon just as a crew member was unlatching the door. The dining area was uncomfortably warmer than the weather, but that soon was corrected as the outdoor temperature cooled it down. Having patronized this Pinoy cafe since opening during the pandemic in 2020, we certainly have seen a change in the aesthetics. Gone are the electronic menu screens, TVs and the dark walls with prints like "Where Island Meets Urban" now replaced by a brighter scheme and hanged decor. They, however, left the "karaoke" corner that was in the original restaurant. Kultura definitely looks better now. I can't believe I haven't left a review with the previous Kultura management as they were always the place for us when wanting halo-halo, long-silog and spam-silog. Coming in today, we decided to get the following: Lechon Kawali Plate $15 (lacking lechon sauce). The teen manning the counter didn't know what "Mang Tomas" was, so we let it be. The DF pork was cooked to lechon kawali perfection. Tapsilog $16 (lacking garlic rice and lumpia). Great tasting but should've been served with the "sinangag" (garlic rice) and egg rolls (lumpia). Longsilog $13.50. Wanting and getting it. The garlic rice, atchara and lumpia were the Yin to the longanisa's Yang. The "atchara" or pickled papaya accompanying these viands were probably way tastier than the printed corn veggies on the menu. Halo-halo $9.50 had more sides compared to the previous owners. But it was smaller portioned. They were still serving using Gunther's Ice Cream, which made up for the lack in volume. Avocado Shake $6.50 with 25% sweetness, sadly lacked in flavor. It didn't taste like avocado at all, having been sourced from a powdered mix. It's not a 5-star review for now, but I bet it's going to get better when we return for the Silogs and Plates.

    New ownership [Rocklin CA] I've not been to Kultura in over a year and had no idea that they are now under new ownership (coming on one year next month in April). Love the new menu... aside from the extensive options of milk tea and boba drinks they also have a nice variety of appetizers including fishball and Spam Musubi, they have popular dishes like the silogs and plate dishes... even the lechon kawali is back on the menu (which the previous owner had discontinued). I chose the Pork Adobo Plate. Lots of meat! The plate came with two scoops of rice and two pieces of Shanghai lumpia, it was a generous serving. I just think that the cream of corn served with it was a bit out of place and didn't care for it that much ¯\_('~')_/¯ I ordered the Longsilog for my hubby. He enjoyed the dish (except for the creamy corn). Silogs are good anytime of the day and not just for breakfast ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The Kultura name is kept the same but the interior is much brighter with plenty of seating. Clean and enjoyable background music (karaoke style). I'll be coming here more often because not only do they offer traditional Filipino desserts but they also have... what the whutttt... bubble waffles and mochi waffles LoL! Review #1795 updated

    Halo-halo.

They even have a small cafeteria-style restaurant selling various hot and ready filipino food and desserts. Yum! My sister and I went here because she likes the sago't gulaman drink from the boba place inside the grocery store. She treated me to halo-halo and it was delicious! A perfect cold treat on a warm day. They are generous with the beans and toppings and the price is reasonable for the amount and quality. For both drinks, I believe she paid around $15 and we place our order using the convenient kiosk. I also found black sesame rice roll snacks there so I was happy about that too.

There was ample parking (and a lot of customers) on a Monday afternoon (holiday). Walking in, everything was well maintained and clean. I didn't quite explore the entire supermarket but it was larger than I thought it would be (based on reading past reviews.) You can't really compare this to the bigger establishments like Seafood City or 99 Ranch or whatever - but from my vantage point they had a wide variety of food. The line threw me off a bit because it starts way in the corner near the produce section. I honestly didn't know if I was in line for the cashiers or the section where they serve cooked food haha. But overall, my experience was fine - I found what I needed, and now know of a store within a short drive when I move to this area and need ingredients that aren't normally found in regular supermarkets.

But for the same price, we can get so much more at places like Oriental Market and just as delicious to satisfy our craving for Filipino food. Parking was easy with plenty of spaces out front, service was great and friendly. Seating space? Extremely limited, especially if you have a party of 5 or more. Best to order for takeout food which brings me to my main point - if I have to order Filipino takeout because of extremely limited seating, I'd rather simply get a la carte elsewhere and pay a lot less or hit up Rocklin area where there are restaurants that serve fantastic boba drinks with fantastic Filipino dishes for much more affordable prices! Is the food incredible? Yes! Will it satisfy your craving for Filipino food? Absolutely! Would I return? No, I wouldn't, to be perfectly honest. Regardless, I feel it's worth a try if you haven't yet but just be mindful of the highs and lows. It's not all great, but it's not all bad. Mediocre and average, at the very least, given all factors. Do I have high expectations of Filipino restaurants? You bet I do!

    It's hard to find decent Filipino food, especially in this area. I would definitely suggest this…read morespot if you're ever in the mood for something that tastes like home.
