A. Food options
I like that Kuya J has a large food choices. If you are like us who wants a simple “lutong bahay” menu, you’ll have lots of options here. And if you’re like me who’s a little kuripot, the prices here range from Php 50 – 400 pesos per serving. It’s not bad at all! We use to dine at fast foods and I must say, this is just about 200 peso different from our usual fast food dine.
B. The Place
The place is clean, even though it’s a bit small. You’ll also have the chance to be able to chat with your companions here while waiting for your food to be served. It’s not so crowded.
C. There’s HIGH CHAIR! lol.
I say this because I have a toddler and on most restaurants I visited, there were no high chairs at all! High chairs are such a convenience to moms like me! It helps us eat properly since we don’t have to devote that much attention to our kids while eating. So restos with high chair will always have a plus for me!
D. Good service.
The waiters were accommodating, but I can’t say it was outstanding. They’ve done nothing above and beyond but they’re definitely not like those who are unapproachable and unhappy with their jobs.
I’ll be honest there’s not much downside for me. I am an easily pleased person so this restaurant is perfectly ok with me. One thing I noticed though is the very small washroom space. You’ll have to be alone or it’ll be a tight place for 2 people together.

That’s my sister in the washing area (middle photo) and them squeezing themselves to get a mirror shot! lol. |
Our overall experience was good, we all love the food and we’re definitely going back due to the reasons stated above. Plus, we haven’t tried their bagnet and crispy pata yet, I would loooove to try those out! I hope soon! lol.
I've heard of this restaurant and surely it is a nice place to eat with you family and your friends. It seems to be affordable. Everything looks yummy!
Yes it sure does. I love all their "lutong bahay" menus!
We also love Kuya J because of affordable price and good food. My son's favorite is the leche flan. 🙂
Kuya J is one of our fave comfort restaurants. They serve big and always with a smile. Their staff are amiable and the food are delish. And yes, they have a high chair! You should try their patatin and kare kare.
I have blogged kuya j too! I love the food there and the place is cozy. I agree there is no downside for this one. The food is grear especially thr sizzling sisig! Yummy 🙂
Oh well , if a place is that busy and crowded , there MUST be something good about it. It's amazing how quickly people find out where to go and where to stay away from ! The food looks fresh and delicious , and according to all these happy faces on your photos , I believe you enjoyed !
I will take note of that, sis! :*
We should go back to their store near us soon. lol.
That's right! Because you know what, I just remembered there was one place near this resto which was so quiet, when we tried dining there, we promised we'd never come back, lol.
