    Tocino was salty and dry.
    James M.

    I had the breakfast platter this weekend. It was $5 more than it used to before the same portion. Unfortunately, the tocino was not fresh. It seemed like a leftover. It was dry. The garlic fried rice, egg and longanisa were good. For the price, another egg and longanisa wwood would be better.

    "Oxtail" kare kare although the photo is obviously a neckbone.
    Joshua L.

    We came in and seated ourselves. It took quite a while for someone to wait on us, and he apologized but there were also only three other tables and they all appeared to have already been served. We ordered lumpia which were great! We also ordered oxtail Kare kare for $26+ that wasn't even cooked long enough for it to be tender and falling apart (and looked more like neck bones than any oxtails I'm familiar with) and the triple pork adobo. The adobo was tender and flavorful (but incredibly salty, and I'm unsure of what the third pork included was as I only see belly (not crispy) and shoulder. The kare kare flavors weren't even melded. It seems that they threw together the dishes and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, for someone who is familiar with Filipino cooking...this just wasn't it. Their up-side is that there isn't an "it" in Denver that I've found. So maybe their take it or leave it approach works for some but not for me. In a stew I expect my meat to fall from the bone, regardless of what type of bone they chose to call oxtails. Pretty disappointing.

    We went here on Sunday after Church. Was super skeptical because we are Filipino and my parents were in town so they came to try the food. It was pretty good. The biggest thing that annoys me in Filipino food restaurants is that sometimes it's too salty. I'm here to report this was not the case. We ordered quite a lot of food and we did not have a lot of leftovers because it was yummy. The best thing we had in my opinion was the bistek, Thai rice, and palabok. The service was fast and the lay out of the restaurant was very spacious and they had great updated furniture. I took off one Star because there were quite a few items on their menu that was sold out and unavailable.

    The food was good, though nothing I'd go back for. I ordered 2 entrees but it was only enough for one person, very disappointing.

    I ordered through Uber, but I will definitely be a return customer! I tried the Full Pork Belly…read morePlate, which came with generous pieces of crispy lechon kawali, flavorful smoked pork belly, and crunchy chicharron crisps. It also included a small bowl's worth of jasmine rice topped plus three sauces on the side. My favorite was the sesame with sweet chile sauce, while I passed on the spicy vinegar and mango habanero sauces given my low tolerance for spice. Even after a 15-minute delivery drive, everything was still warm and crispy, which is not always the case with takeout. I am already excited to order again and try the chicken adobo, along with a few of their tacos!

    I've had the chance to eat at the brick and mortar location quite a few times after moving closer…read moreto the location last year and I absolutely love most of the things that they have to offer. The lumpia is the long version and very tasty, the pancit, chicken adobo and lechon kawali plate is very good and when they have calamansi I try and get a cocktail with it because the juice tastes real lol. The few things that I think could use improvement are the tacos. I've had Taco Tuesday there maybe 4 times and unfortunately realized that the tacos are pretty oily and unless getting a non-sauce inclusive taco it's going to likely be oily. The fusion of Filipino into the tacos is a nice gesture but honestly did not do it that much for me, I ultimately like their classic types of tacos and not really the fancy/unique ones they sell. My friend also got a burrito at one point and it was dripping oil. The drinks also tend to be on the weak side and after having three cocktails there over a single meal I didn't really feel much of anything. The service and ambiance of the place is great and the owner really cares about the customers but the parking lot sucks lol, I'll continue to visit this spot for the items that I feel are good but haven't really been out for Taco Tuesday in a while.

I chose Magna Kainan for my…read moregraduation dinner, and it turned into such a special and memorable evening thanks to the incredible care and attention from Patrick, the manager. He helped craft the perfect experience, allowing me to customize both the menu and specialty cocktails for the night. There were so many amazing options to choose from, but we ultimately selected the pandesal, kinilaw, and sisig as appetizers. All were absolutely delicious and the perfect start to the meal. The crab fat noodles were the highlight of the evening and completely unforgettable. The lechon and laing were equally outstanding, packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. What made the night even more special was seeing how much all of my guests enjoyed the experience. Friends flew in from Los Angeles, Palm Springs, and San Diego, and every single one of them are serious foodies who appreciate great dining experiences. They were all blown away by the flavors, creativity, and execution of every dish that came out of the kitchen. The cocktails were superb from start to finish, and all of my guests especially loved taking the Tito Boy shot together! Every detail of the night felt thoughtful and intentional. Thank you to Patrick and the entire Magna Kainan team for making such an important celebration feel truly magical. I can't wait to come back!

All of the cocktails we got were great (albeit mine was a bit boozy but my fault for not realizing it was a liquor-forward drink). My husband's ube cocktail was so fun! For food, we all shared Pandesal, lumpia, Bistek, pipino crunch, adobo fried rice and crab noodles. Everything was super tasty, I think my favorite might have been the pipino crunch (cucumber salad), or lumpia! The bistek was a little chewy, but I liked the relish coating it. The timing and order of the food was a little odd - instead of starting with the appetizers then mains, they brought out some mains then apps, with the lumpia being the very last thing to come out. Not the worst thing but the ordering was definitely a little weird (steak was one of the first items to come out). Overall, very enjoyable experience and love that this restaurant is on the InKind app!

And unless you specifically ask, they serve it bone dry with no sauce, which makes it pretty hard to enjoy. I love that they let you order half portions, and the lunch special is a great deal--but again, you *have* to ask for extra sauce or it's just not going to work. The katsu is okay, but also super dry without sauce ...are we sensing a theme? And skip the katsu curry entirely--it's bland and weirdly wants to be Thanksgiving gravy but without any of the flavor. If you're thinking of DoorDashing--don't. They never include sauce, and the food just doesn't hold up without it. Honestly, the Walmart location at Chambers and Parker is much better. This spot's quality and service have really gone downhill. I'm still holding out hope they turn it around--but seriously, stop skimping on the sauce. The meat *needs* it desperately

From the second I walked in, service was impeccable, welcoming, and helpful. Staff went above and beyond to walk me to the restroom (as it was my first time dining here), out to my patio table, and quickly brought water. Everyone was dressed up for the occasion, chandeliers were lining the interior with a gorgeous and sophisticated look, and the music was a fun K-Pop/dance vibe. Our table of three started with the Buddha Button (essentially a lemon drop martini with Deep Eddy's and a special flower that invigorates your taste buds to create a literal "party in your mouth"). Anything cold adds to the buzzing, vibrating energy; pair the flower with a cold cocktail and it's a phenomenal experience! We also had a bottle of white wine - it was to be expected: tasty. We tried the crab rangoons and thought they were a fun snack, although $21 for four rangoons was tough. I could've gone to Panda Express and gotten four for $3.99 and called it a day. Christine and I both had the Miso Sea Bass - easily the crowd favorite. Even though it was light, it was very flavorful with the sauce, mushrooms, and rice included in the meal. It was mostly filling, though charging $64 for that as the main entree is quite a big stretch. The crowd winner was our server, Maddie. She had amazing recommendations, a full understanding of the menu, and was very attentive and personable. Overall, fun experience! The price for the quantity of food makes it a dubious chance of returning, but A+ for the staff!

    Ala in all, Jing is a great place. It's a vibrant place to see and be seen…read more Jing USED to have the absolute best crab Rangoons; however, we were told the head line-cook decided to turn them in to crab & cheese empanadas. Rather than the light, crispy purses they used to be, they are now doughy, barely cooked Mexican-fusion and chewy triangles. And they charge $21.00 for them. Technically, the person who made this decision is called, internally, the head chef, but anyone who makes such awful food is a beginner line-cook.
