KASINA CAFE

What a lovely spot for dinner! It started to fill up around 4pm so we were guided to their upstairs back patio to eat at a table and benches which suited us just fine. The cuisine is Korean but using some Mexican ingredients like their chilis and herbs. My chili sauce mackerel was amazing, such flavor without being too spicy. Accompanied by perfect rice and pickled daikon and kimchi cabbage, this really hit the spot. My friends had an amazing oxtail dish with sauce that was out of this world and beautiful with the rice, pickles and kimchi. Other friend had delicious spicy pork bbq with some simple steamed green vegetable. The music and atmosphere was perfect, not noisy and allowed for lively conversation. The restaurant is in an older building that has been remodeled and retains charm but functions so well! Staff was super attentive and should be commended on being so efficient to serve so many people with just a few wait staff. We each spent about 400-450 pesos each for food and 1 drink each. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely delicious !! The place itself is really cute and cozy we went for a late lunch and it was very chill although got busier as we were leaving! I think it is a hidden gem and truly beautiful food, super fresh We got the lettuce salad with tofu, Korean chive pancake and beef gyozas as starters, a main bibimbap and mango cake as desert I loved each dish and there is so much care in the plates. When I visit restaurants usually the starters or mains are recommended but I think all starters mains and deserts are standalone and delicious Thank you so much we loved it and looking forward to returning to try other dishes

Very good Korean food in a nice, cozy space. The udon and buchu jeon were good, but the fried chicken was my favorite and what I'll keep coming back for. Good service as well.

I went for a lunch in the upper part where you can enjoy the typical Korean bbq. Everything was super good, I tried the two options beef and pork marinated, Served with many sides. Were delicious, also the soup was really good! Actually everything was good even the soju! Service was at the level, and very friendly, they were explaining and help us very well! I will come back soon! Price / quality… perfect!

Kasina is a beautifully designed Korean restaurant with an elegant atmosphere. The food is delicious, with rich, traditional flavors that stand out. It is a bit pricey Interestingly, the drinks are reasonably priced, ranging from 55 to 100 pesos, which is quite fair compared to the food. In my case, the service was excellent, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming. While the food is on the pricier side, the reasonable drink prices and quality dishes make it a good option for those looking to enjoy Korean cuisine.

Underwhelming Korean dishes with a hefty price tag. Kasina was high on my “must-visit” list, but the experience fell a bit short of expectations. Upon arrival, I was acknowledged but without the warmest welcome. I was seated toward the back of the restaurant and handed a menu. Even though I was waiting for someone, they were pushy about getting me to order. When my friend arrived, we placed our order, and our Korean fried chicken was served promptly. The sauce was delicious, and the chicken was fried just right—not overdone. For our main dishes, we ordered kimchi fried rice and bibimbap. The kimchi fried rice was tasty but a bit small in portion, while the bibimbap had an appealing presentation, although the beef portion was disappointingly small. Given the price, the portion sizes felt lacking. We received a few side dishes, including a miso soup that was just average. The service was mediocre, with the servers seeming uninterested. Although the restaurant’s aesthetic was pleasing, the underwhelming food and half-hearted service left me disappointed.

Really enjoyed what I had. Granted after reading some of the reviews I avoided the entrees. I thought the salad was quite nice and the chicken was a bit sauced but overall very good.

I wasn't finished with the first dish when I knew I wanted to come back. Their creations are remarkable. I won't forget how delicious the Udon noodles were; it's one of the best and most creative dishes I've had. Everything was excellent. We had a tofu fresh salad that was so good! Then the fried chicken and wooow wow wow! Delicious. Then we had the japchae which was done in the traditional way. We also tried some beef stew that was well balanced and rich. The desserts weren't that sweet which I love, and the service and environment were perfect.
