Love it here! Newly renovated and I think they updated their menu. Ordered tortang talong pero sobrang level up. Lasagna is also good. Staff are nice.

BEST KARE-KARE I’VE HAD!!!! If you’re a Kare-Kare fanatic like me, you should try this one from Cristina’s Kitchen x Café. It was an absolute delight! The sauce was perfectly creamy and rich, with a wonderful depth of flavor. The meat was incredibly tender and fell apart with ease. The vegetables were crunchy and were perfectly cooked. The smokey taste from the fried eggplant added extra flavor too! The bagoong on the side was the perfect finishing touch, bringing everything together. Not too sweet, not too salty. The portion was generous!! Sobrang nakakabusog! It’s clear that they use top-quality ingredients, and the authentic Filipino flavors shine through in every bite. Swear!! Learned that they use cashews instead of peanuts as well which is a big plus!!! If you’re craving Kare Kare, I highly recommend giving it a try here – it’s definitely one of the best Kare-Kares I’ve had! Truly a comforting dish! Yay! Thank you so much, Chef Chad, for the Kare Kare experience!

We had a great brunch here! The sisig was a standout—10/10, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The lasagna was a bit sweeter than expected and could’ve been more creamy, but still delicious. Both dishes were beautifully presented, which made the experience even better. Definitely worth a visit!

Had a nice brunch with the family here. Their menu is a mix of Filipino and Italian dishes. Friends told me to try their silogs and baked mac. But since I was with my family, we got their Squid ink Palabok, Beef Kare Kare, Grilled Salmon and Crispy Sisig. Serving was generous and not that salty from the previous reviews. Even had to request for a chili toyomansi sauce. Their staff are nice and attentive. The place is clean and vibrant with their fiesta decorations. You'll definitely enjoy visiting this cafe.

Serving is enough na for two people except sa rice meals the taste and quality is good for its price. Everything is great at this kitchen/café, from aesthetics, cleanliness, taste of food, we've been here two times and I highly recommend their sisig and bistek bowl. Chamomile tea is nice too and their latte is tasty, they also include a tiny cup of sweetener so u can tailor it to your own taste :3 whilst chamomille tea u have to order a honey or partner it with a nice sweet cake :3

Food and drinks are Instagrammable and worth every penny. The interior is very modern, with a superb combination of soft green and brown colors. The second floor is spacious and has a function room perfect for small party celebrations. Even their comfort room is suitable for photo-taking. The staff are welcoming and provide excellent service

Went here with the family before we do groceries at Shopwise. It was a Saturday night and there was live acoustic performance that compliments our experience. Food was really great! Was about to order the bagnet kare-kare if I correctly remember but mom want the classic ox tail kare-kare and luckily they have it! Ordered lechon de carajay, lumpiang Antipolo, garlic rice, cashew and pomelo salad, and the Ox tail kare-kare. For the drinks we tried Mango Sago, Cristina Cafe Latte, and Sago't Kapelaman. For the dessert, we had the Maja blanca pie. My favorite would be the Lechon de Carajay. The Maja pie was more of like macapuno and has a super creamy filling. Was just a bit disappointed that the pastry crust is not on the crunchy side. But overall we still enjoyed it! Glad to see that it is going 10 years for 2024.
