    Kare-Kare...beef dish that was actually not oily or heavy.  It was outstanding.
    It's That Sudden Stop O.

    This might have been the only Filipino restaurant in town, but it's all we needed. We must have dined at Harana Cafe 3 times during our 3 day visit to Ashland. Couldn't help ourselves because the cuisine was absolutely fantastic and the fact that they offered pet friendly outdoor seating was a nice bonus.

    Chicken adobo

    3.5 stars Coming from the Bay Area and familiar with Filipino food out in Daly City, my standards are a bit high. I will say they use good ingredients and their dishes are not as greasy as traditional Filipino foods I've had. We got the Harana for two, which had chicken adobo, lumpia, atchara (pickled veggies), jasmine rice and an order of the sisig pork belly. I was a bit disappointed with the sisig because the pork was dry. It could be their style, but it could have been way better if the meat wasn't so dehydrated. The flavor and egg was good though. Chicken adobo was better, the mushrooms they used was very good and soaked the flavor well. One of the chicken pieces was slightly over done and a tad dry, but the other was fall off the bone. Lumpia was good, pretty standard. Their Atchara was quite tiny and wish they offered more as it went very well with their dishes.

    Back for more! My new favorite dish is the beef mami! Oozing with flavors and i can't get enough! The deconstructed kare kare was quite flavorful with crunchy vegetables! We also ordered the chicken skewers and the lumpia! Everything was amazing. I also enjoyed the milk tea which has pandan flavor. Next time would love to try more of the natural wines!

    Chicken adobo

    3.5 stars. We arrived shortly after they opened at 5 and there was already a line to order. We were greeted right away, handed menus and waited at the counter to place our order. Randy ordered the pork bbq and I ordered the chicken adobo. We started with a lumpia order and Randy got a sprite. We were handed a number and seated ourselves. They have a big container of cold water and glasses self serve. There are seats inside and out. We ate inside because it was a very hot day. The lumpia was so good. Best we've ever had but we've only had it a few times. They were full of delicious meat, not greasy, served with a sweet chili sauce (I can't handle spicy and this wasn't spicy at all). I loved my chicken adobo. It comes with two chicken thighs and I am thrilled to report the meat was excellent quality, full of flavor and fall off the bone tender. I almost never order a dish that comes with thighs because I've had so many awful experiences with fatty, gristly meat. Not the case here. This dish alone will absolutely have me coming back. Randy loved it too - much more than his pork bbq which is the main reason for the 3.5 star rating. He describes it as tough, a caramelized, hard to get through crust, and fatty and he doesn't understand the purpose of the chili strand - it didn't really add flavor or spice. Another reason for the star rating is the cost for what you get. The pork bbq was $20 and it was two kabobs. Neither meal came with rice - it was separate and needed. For a place that has you line up to order at a counter like a fast food place to charge so much for not a lot of food is a turn off. That said, the counter employee and the woman (owner?) were both very friendly and helpful and you can tell they take pride in what they do. We're in the area at least three times a year so I'll say we would likely come back. We would order the Harana for two, pay almost half what we paid tonight and leave very satisfied.

    Well buckle up because my bestie and I went here two times within 24 hours. The food was UNREAL! My understanding of desserts have been completely redefined. The halo halo and Buko Pandan are now my favorite treats to have. The level of comfort and intentionality in every dish was perfect. Highly recommend getting the lumpia and sisig together. The textures and flavors complement eachother perfect. I was shocked at the elegance of the milk tea cocktail. Teresita is the delightfully hospitible owner who constantly was walking around and checking on everyone to ensure they were getting everything they needed. The colors and minimalist decor left a perfect canvas for exceptional flavors to be had.

    Masarap talaga! That means it's really delicious. We love to stop in Ashland for meals when we drive to/from CA from Eugene and came across this gem. Filipino food in Ashland?! Yup. And it's really good. Food is obvs masarap (again, delicious), and Teresita, the owner and counter service/waitstaff is super friendly. Expect casual cafe style where the food is the highlight. The menu seems to rotate and Specials really are special...meaning it's there once in a while so don't miss out. I missed out on lechon....roast pork which only is around during really special occasions like weddings, milestone birthdays, etc on our way to CA, but had the savory chicken adobo with aromatic jasmine rice, side of archaea, and lumpia. We had halo-halo for dessert. These are basics. One must get the basics well. Did we go back? Heck yes. On your way back I savored the beef mami and my husband loved the BBQ pork. And we ordered the special of the day, which was a dessert: cassava. Harana Cafe made me feel I've had a quick visit to the Philippines. Well done.

    Old Fashioned

    So good! The Green Mango Salad was refreshing and delicious. I had the Kare Kare and my husband had BBQ pork. Loved both. The Kare Kare was heavy on the peanut sauce. My Old Fashioned was outstanding. The interior is tiny and simple and that's okay. Definitely a repeat

    A must when visiting Ashland. Order two lumpia orders to start. Margarita was yummm. I tried the noodles, its made with Ramen noodles, still very tasty. Family rum with gorgeous people. Super cute space. I will be back again during the remainder of my trip. Very well taken care of..

    Beef mami, so rich!

    Watch out, high-end Filipino places like Magna Kusina. You're being lapped by a hole-in-the-wall in Southern Oregon. We went back tonight to repeat check our last visit, and all was at least as good. We had again the lumpia--fresh, clearly hand-made--pork belly appetizer (tokwa't baboy), and beef with noodles (beef mami). We added the pork belly main (sisig pork belly) to round it out. All were excellent, and we sense very authentic. Old Fashioneds are top-notch. Milk tea was excellent, a little more citrus than I like. The Beef Mami paired with an Old Fashioned is the way to go if you can't decide. Service was charming. The owner is a peach, and seriously into making sure everyone is happy. If you can be in Ashland when they are open, definitely stop by.

    Ubod

    This place has the sweetest family run small restaurant vibe that I loved. The weakest part of the experience was the slow service although every dish when it got delivered was done with a smile. We finished each dish before the next one came out, with the appetizer coming in the middle. Good thing we were sharing. I was excited to try some filipino dishes beyond my standard experience with Lumpia and Adobo so it was exciting to try the Pork Belly Sisig and the Kare Kare. The 63 degree egg in the Sisig was divine with a gorgeous silken texture to the yolk. And I'm always a fan of crispy pork belly although I could have used a little spicy sauce for dipping. The beef shank is not one of my fave cuts but the presentation was nice and the peanut sauce on top delicious. The ubod crepe tasted fresh and I especially enjoyed the crisp texture of the jicama.

    Chicken Adobo
    Rob P.

    Great authentic Filipino food. Family owned, three generations working together. Ashland needed more ethinc restaurants and Harama fits the bill. Nice drink selection which includes cocktails, beer & wine. We had lumpia, arroz caldo, B Q pork, chicken adobo, pancit, and green mango salad.

    Barbecue pork with saffron and rice
    S J.

    Harana has just opened and it is an absolute gem. Welcome to Ashland! Walk in and order at the counter, you can see and smell the dishes as they come up from the kitchen to the left. Counter service was helpful in choosing and making selections. Patience and kindness! We started with the lumpia- a pyramid of six hot perfectly seasoned appetizers. Gone in a flash. My husband had the pork belly that was juicy and crisp and the poached egg was cooked as if by magic. Gooey deliciousness. The barbecue pork was excellent with strings of saffron. The rice for both our dishes were fluffy and the perfect amount of sticky. Next time we'll save room for what looked like beautiful dessert! What a amazing addition to Ashlands food scene

A happy hour menu was posted in the window-from 4-5pm every day of the week. We got in during happy hour and were able to score one of the few outdoor creekside tables. It was super pleasant to be able to sit outside and hear the creek while eating delicious food. Ordered the house made blackberry soda-pretty good. Also had the happy hour fried chicken and hh burger, as well as the scallops off of the main menu. The burger was thick and juicy. My kids and husband said the fries were some of the best they've had-crispy exterior and soft interior. Fried chicken had a light crispy coating on the outside and the honey Aleppo mixture was great, though son said it could've used a little more salt. My scallops were some of the best scallops I've ever had before--so well cooked and perfectly seasoned and with these thinly sliced snap peas that were just barely blanched that added texture and freshness to the dish. For dessert I had the olive oil cake with fresh berries--so delicious and perfect way to top off the meal. Service was pretty good. Would def be back!

As a chef at two James Beard-winning restaurants, a server, owner, and consultant, I have dedicated my life to the food industry and the people within it. I'm from Ashland, and I was so happy when places like this started showing up in my hometown. Good food and atmosphere can be so hard to find. Coming home to Ashland can be a true oasis for my family. My wife and I have made it our life's mission to make our daughter feel equal and included. Our daughter was born with a rare condition called AMC and does not have normal function in any of her limbs. She currently spends 3-4 days a week in physical therapy to continue building strength so her body and organs can function properly. We were visiting family at the park and suggested stopping in for a beverage and snacks to escape the heat after a long day. We typically plan everything ahead to ensure wherever we go can accommodate my daughter's wheelchair and needs. When we arrived, we thought, "Wow, perfect, she can wheel right in and up to one of the many open tables." Once we were "greeted" by the host, I realized we were not who she wanted to deal with. Three kids, three adults, a stroller, and a wheelchair. She looked like she wanted nothing to do with us, like we were dirt on her shoe. "No reservation," she said. I replied, "Yeah, so sorry, we figured since it was a Monday night right when you opened, and there were only two two-tops seated, we could probably find somewhere to sit." I reassured her we would not stay long enough to impact reservations at the larger front tables, which usually have reserved markers on them but did not at the time. We could all feel that she didn't want to seat us, and we left despite me practically begging to make something work for us, because I know she could have if she wanted to. Being from the industry, I understand what kids can do to an atmosphere, and I know a lot of restaurant workers don't enjoy dealing with other people's children. But when we went outside and my daughter cried and said, "They didn't want me there" So I loaded my daughter's wheelchair back into the car so I could carry her up the stairs at Brickroom, where one employee was working the entire place and took amazing care of us, I might add. We resorted to a booster seat for my daughter since she couldn't use her wheelchair there. She ended up falling out of the seat and slamming onto the hardwood floor. She cried and was embarrassed. The young man tending bar while also waiting every table rushed over with a bag of ice to comfort her. It was honestly touching how kind he was. When we left Brickroom, we had spent more time there than we originally intended to spend at Bar Juliet. As we walked back by Bar Juliet, we noticed the restaurant was still only about half full, and one of the large front tables had remained open the entire time from around 4:10 until 5:40 when we walked by again. I had to stop and ask the host why she couldn't have seated us considering that table never filled. Her only explanation was, "Our kitchen is slow getting food out." Such an incredibly weak excuse. I hope she understands she was wrong and that she made my daughter feel unwanted simply because accommodating us wasn't convenient for her. I have never left a review in my life, but I was so saddened and disgusted by this experience that I felt I had to.

The service is good, we've been there with our family and with a large group, and they have always been very patient and friendly. Alchemy is in my top 3 favorite places for a dressy dinner when we are visiting Ashland. The only slightly negative thing I have to say is that we were there celebrating a birthday once and at the end of the meal our server brought out a candle on a small, flat ceramic dish. The birthday girl's comment was, "You just spent $300 on dinner and all they brought me for my birthday was a candle?" It seemed a little chintzy since most places will give you an actual dessert, not just a candle, but at least they brought a candle. Other than that tiny little thing, we still love to eat here and will be back when visiting in the future.

The latter changes seasonally--in our case it was a dashi broth with a variety of local mushrooms and vegetables. Both dishes were good, with my steak cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes amazingly creamy without tasting too buttery; the dashi broth was delicious as well. We also split the steak tartare, the house bread, and the chips & dip (seasonal special) as appetizers. With the exception of the chips & dip, the appetizers were good but nothing outstanding. The chips & dip, however, were REALLY GOOD! I did not know you could elevate potato chips like that, but their house-made chips are delicious and I would highly recommend trying them. Both my fiancé and I were not a huge fan of the sauce (just a little too creamy, it's really smooth though so if you like creamy sauces you'll probably enjoy it!), but just eating the plain chips was amazing. They even brought us a second serving of chips for free since we hadn't used all of the dip! We also ordered a pear tart for dessert which I would also recommend getting! Delicious crust and good pear flavor.
