EXCELLENT FILIPINO FOOD. You may have heard of Katna's Kitchen before - that awesome Filipino spot at 626 Night Market and Foodieland or maybe have heard it from your friends/family - but here it is in its physical location, I couldn't be any happier. Even though I don't live in the area, I made my way out to Fairfield for some of this delicious Filipino food! AMBIANCE: 4/5. Located in a quiet corner but with plenty of parking. As soon as you walk in, you see an open & clean restaurant with some indoor seating (several tables and surrounding chairs) and shelves against the walls with Filipino goodies and merch (canned goods, snacks, magnets, decors, etc.) that they are selling. Right in front, you'd see the food in a heated display case with the names of the dishes attached to the glass window. SERVICE: 5/5. We've been a customer of Katna's we've known of their business and since we've lived in the Bay Area - they without a doubt have some of the friendliest and most welcoming owners and staff! FOOD: 5/5. Katna's offers a variety of traditional comfort and also unique Filipino dishes, ranging from street food skewers to combination plates, all within reasonable prices. The calamansi slushie I had was so refreshing and was a perfect side to all the good savory dishes. Portions are big and the quality/authentic taste of this Kapampangan food will not disappoint! OVERALL: 5/5. All-in-all delicious food with friendly staff. Make sure you try it out if you're in the area and have a great dining experience (say hi to Agnes if she's there, she's wonderful and will make you feel so welcomed). I can't wait to be back for some more Katna's! read more

Tried out Katna's Kitchen from one of their stalls and I really really wanted this to be good. I had the bbq pork skewers and lumpia. I'd like to consider that being away from a kitchen had a part in the food being just okay but my problems were independent of that process. Both skewers I received had about a good amount of gristle and basically impossible to chew parts along with improperly rendered fat. The flavor was there and the lean pieces were nice but the bad parts completely overshadowed any merit. The lumpia was standard fare but excessively greasy, most likely as a result of improper drainage or overcooking. Some minors fixes regarding just better meat quality/trimming + taking that extra step on frying and this place should be golden. They nailed the flavor down but fall short on the foundation read more

Made my way over to Katnas after seeing them at various events around the bay. I was looking forward to trying their food at the actual physical location l. I figured their food would be similar to what I saw at the different events. They had snacks, some clothes, and what I call knick Knicks for sale. They had numerous entrees available to mix and match to make a combo plate. I really wanted to like this place, but based on my first impression, I was a bit disappointed. The were generous with the rice but my entree left me hanging. I got their sinagang. Their halo halo was definitely a yummy delight. I didn't mind the price as it was quite filling. I'm hoping I just went on an off day and the next time I come back it'll be a better experience. read more

Honest review: I was so excited when I found out that they finally opened. I always drive by here when I go to the base to check if they're open yet, and finally! However, I was a little disappointed. First off, the price is a little too much, I think. That whole plate is 18 dollars and some change (including tax). Everything on this plate is sweet. With the chicken adobo, I feel like it's lacking the authentic filipino adobo taste. I know you can make it in different ways, but it just tastes sweet like oyster sause or something sugar. The caldereta was the best tasting out of this plate. The entire meal, however, needs some salt and pepper. The pansit, I'm not crazy about the noodles that they used here, it's not the "translucent" kind. This one seems like to have a rubbery texture to it. The rice I didn't order because it looked so sticky and stuck together, all clumped up. There wasn't very much of a selection as far as entree. But then again, they just newly opened, so they might come up with some more soon! The store is nice and clean. They even have a little section for snacks if you're craving for some. The slushy I was excited to try but wasn't ready at the time. The staff are nice and friendly. Will I come back here? Yes, I'll give it another shot. read more

Not worth the drive. We were served old rice and BBQ, and the pancit didn't taste fresh. Their pandan smoothie was also disappointing, it tasted spoiled/panis. When I first tried their combo at Foodieland or the 626 Night Market, it was great. I didn't expect this kind of experience when I drove to their restaurant. read more

When you are craving traditional Filipino grub, Katna's Kitchen is a great go to joint. Traditional favorites with that home style flare.

Very expensive for the small small Portion I got of just a side. I will be going to 3J's. This place is ip there with Rolines and they never have Pinakbet. read more

Just visited their stall at a fair in Daly City. Not only did we wait an hour in line but we waited an hour to get our food after ordering. They claimed to have award winning sisig but it was the most bland and expensive sisig I've ever had. Avoid the sisig it's not worth your time and money. read more

We are so pleased with our catering experience with Katna's Kitchen! In January, we ordered 7 party trays for a party in our home. The owner/manager was kind and very understanding as we placed our order somewhat last minute. They delivered everything (for a fee), and it was hot and ready to serve. The Kare Kare and Sisig were especially tasty - I had to make sure I set some aside for myself, before everyone packed up their leftovers to take home. We will definitely be returning for future catering needs! read more

Service was great, and the food was amazing. I loved the street food, especially because it is cooked fresh on the grill.

I went to Kasayahan in daly city and Katna's Kitchen serves tasty Filipino comfort food that feels homemade. The barbecue is tender, juicy, and full of sweet, smoky flavor. The lumpia is crispy on the outside with a delicious, well-seasoned filling inside. perfectly together and are served fresh and hot. The long wait in line was definitely worth it! read more

I was looking forward to coming here when I found out they were opening a sit down restaurant, but was disappointed. I've been following them on Instagram and was very impressed with the menu they had for vendor events, but I was let down here. I've come here twice, once for breakfast and another time for lunch to give this restaurant a fair review. The first time I came here, it was before breakfast ended at 10:30am. I was disappointed to not even see half of what the extensive breakfast menu says they offer. There was only beef tapa, chicken and pork tocino. I would've had to wait 30 minutes if I wanted longanisa, keep in mind breakfast was about to be done serving and it wasn't ready. The serving size of the silog was unequal since there was so much rice given for such little meat. The garlic rice was also noted to be very mushy and wet. I also came across the issue that their cashier system wasn't ready to accept credit or debit cards, so I was asked to use venmo, zelle or pay with cash. I didn't appreciate the use of a money app at a restaurant as it can be inaccessible to some customers. I was let down by my first time here, so I came here again in hopes of redeeming it. This time I came for lunch way after 11:30am to ensure that food would be prepared. There wasn't many options to choose from, since breakfast items were still out. The serving size and price for 2 entree combinations plate was decent. Unfortunately, the one entree plate was mainly rice which doesn't translate to the $13.99 price. Another downside would be that combination plates offer the choice of rice or Pancit, but Pancit wasn't available to choose from. The tasty items I had were the sisig and Tortang talong, but would have to pass up on the bony kare Kare and chewy, fatty beef tapa. I also tried the halo halo, but it wasn't memorable as it was mainly milk, melted ice and didn't have many jelly toppings. As for the inside of the restaurant, it is spacious and clean. There are a couple tables out for dining in. There are many Filipino snacks and merchandise to look at and purchase. The staff I interacted with is friendly, but take their time when serving. I may have to revisit this restaurant in a few months when things are more consistent, but in the meantime I will not be coming back. read more

I really want this place to succeed but... I had to leave twice because I was waiting for someone to be at the front and no one is here. I can hear what sounds like dishes being washed by someone in the back. Waited patiently for ten minutes. Even called out hello but no response. Might need to get something more than some bells at the front door if people are not gonna be at the cash register. As for the food it is okay. Sisig is decent. You can read the other reviews about it. Longanisa is flavorful. Everything is precooked and then microwaved to reheat. I'll give it one more shot. Being half Filipino and never learned to cook Filipino food it's hard to find a good Filipino restaurant for the food I miss especially in the local area. read more

I tried this place at Foodieland Night Market in Sac at Cal Expo. I was stoked to try some lumpia. And this place was from my hometown of Fairfield so what's not to love? 707, represent! $9 for 15 lumpia. Hell yeah. We made the purchase and was handed a little cardboard container featuring 15 tiny lumpia a little bigger than penne pasta but nowhere near what a regular lumpia eater is used to. There was also a dipping sauce. My significantly better half and I tried them. WTF? They tasted like nothing. I'm sure there was a filling inside them but we couldn't tell. They tasted like fried lumpia wrappers. That was it. Couldn't taste any kind of filling. There we sat eating penne lumpia that tasted like sadness. Based on these lumpia there's no way i'd visit the restaurant in Fairfield. Why? For more disappointment? Epic fail. And I love lumpia. read more

I was excited when I saw this place open-been seeing it in the works for sometime. The positives are a family run business, with very kind people. A military discount. Clean and seating both inside and outside. Today I ordered pork tonico and they didn't have pancit so instead had this other noodle dish. Sadly noodles were mushy and luke warm. The pork was better but not something I would order again. I was really hoping to have liked this restaurant as it is so close to work. A person before me ordered a type of dumpling that he had to wait to have cooked. I might give them another try and order that meal ahead of time. read more

Hidden gem. Located: Before the entrance gate to Travis Airforce base. Variety of food (depending on the day of the week and time you arrive) you can always call and ask what is on the menu/hot table). Lechon kawali, chicken adobo, beef nilaga (chunks of beef / soup base), bangus sinigang (milk fish/sour soup), sisig, breakfast/lunch Silogs- Filipino breakfast (2 fried eggs, garlic fried rice, and your choice longanisa, tocino, fish (I think) and beef tapa. These are just a few that I tasted. Food is delicious s/o to the cook! Owner of Katna (Agnes) she is full of good energy, friendly, and pleasant to talk to. My family and I come here twice a week!

Came here to pick up some to go filipino food and boy were they DELISH! Paksiw na lechon, picadilyo were A+++ Kare kare was tasty but I prefer the chunky type not the runny but it was still a solid B+ for me. Service was fast and no issues. Will definitely come back fo the sisig! read more

Florida Jesus brought me here great customer service ran by family. I didn't have time to take pictures and just devoured it haha. Great food and very affordable. They don't skimp. Small spot and unfortunately no restroom. I hope they can relocate to a bigger space because this place is a gem. Highly recommend! Would definitely come back read more

Went there to try their food, It wasn't that good, the sisig tasted more like crushed chicharon theres not enough flavor / lemon and spice to it. Kalderetang baka is okay but not good. The grilled bbq is overflowing with sauce that tasted like ketchup it probably would be better if they lessen it. Halo halo is just ice and milk. they should put more in it more banana, nata, gulaman, langka? coz its sooo plain Its a big let down. wont be coming back if I am to choose with filo stores in the area djs bibingkahan / seafood city food is way better taste wise / food option. (and thats telling alot) read more

Cute little fil cuisine place. Food is great, def a taste of home. Here for education at mare island and although the drive to Fairfield is about 30 min the food does not disappoint. I ordered a two item plate with garlic rice ($16.99 + tax). I also got her calamansi slush ($5 + tax). The kare kare was scrumptious and of course you cannot go wrong with tortang talong. Def will go back and try other items on the menu! Her service was also great and she was so sweet and nice! I deduct a star because of the distance, kind of out by the afb, and idk if it's the straw being organic but it bristled after 5 min or if it was a reaction with the calamansi. Also, need to try the other food options and the little bakery goods. A bit pricey for a portion size equally of a Panda Express container ($25) . Over all, a good food experience for a first timer! read more

Disappointed. Bought a pork and a chicken skewer from their food truck at the Tomato festival in FF. Asked for foil because we were bringing it home and she says they didn't have any at that time.. She gave us another paper tray to put over it even tho it didn't cover it completely. Any sauce that was on there spilled. Luckily we had a bag in the car to put it in. If you're serving from a food truck, have something to cover the food, even if I ate it there I didn't want to walk around with my food all out. The pork was so fatty, not a good fat that melts but a chewy rubbery fat that you can't eat and have to spit out. The chicken was apparently from a drumstick because it had the gristle on it that I also had to spit out. If you're going to buy cheap meat at least cut the fat & gristle out. The seasoning was good but nothing to write home about maybe that sauce would've helped if it didn't spill. I've had way better skewers at Seafood city in Vallejo & Suisun Seafood center. I thought I was missing out because I haven't tried their food before but those skewer made up my mind, I'm good. Do better. read more

Service was good. Nice and clean. We ordered crispy pata and few other dishes. Most were very authentic but we were disappointed with the crispy pata. Crunchy skin but the meat was hard and over cooked. We're willing to give it another try though. read more

Not that great, plae has AC but doesn't use it. Contest winning sisig looked like corned beef and wasn't that great. Sinigang wasn't sour at all. A lot of better filipino restaurants out there. read more

The food was "okay." More specifically the main entree was slightly colder than warm although the rice was hot. Something that threw me off was the service, though was "professional" the lady that provided service to my family and I was not friendly. As for the dining area, the space is very limited and small. read more

I visited this place because I saw several posts about them and they're local! Sadly, the menudo meat tasted OFF. So off putting that we had to throw out the entire container. read more

The freshly cooked food is good. I had the Dinuguan and I'm pretty particular about it - it's good. Sinigang was a little too extra sour for my liking and I do like it on the sour side. My gripe is the food under the warmer because it tastes like old food. The BBQ stick was extremely dry and had no flavor, like they just brushed on some Filipino bbq marinade and called it a day. The fried tilapia tasted like metal. ... and the lumpia that I had to wait 10 mins for was HORRIBLE. A Filipino restaurant that had horrible lumpia? Ya, it happened. The meat was so dry and it was only half way through the middle of the roll. I'm wondering if it was reheated from a previous batch and the meat shrunk because it looked like a mini overcooked Vienna sausage in the lumpia. On top of that that, the lumpia tastes like fish because they clearly fried it in the same oil. They have the WORST lumpia I ever had. I'm sorry, I think they're overhyped on social media. They look great in their IG posts, warm, friendly, etc.... But we saw none of that when we went. Nice mural though. But man, I can't get over the basics: bbq sticks, fried tilapia, and lumpia... thumbs way down. Also, $16.99 for your little bag of chicharon!?!? It's fried like your other food so I wouldn't take that gamble. read more

Updated review: finally got to try Katna's. The owners are very down to earth. I came during lunchtime and they had a decent amount of options. Definitely recommend if you want a quick turo turo filipino lunch to try. 2 entrees for $12.99 wasn't bad considering the generous amount they give out. Another plus side are the filipino snacks! They have chips, pastillas, polvoron, century tuna & so much more. read more

My wife and I had sisig from their tent and enjoyed it. We tried lunch at the restaurant. I had the BBQ chicken and Sisig. The chicken was marinated, then BBQ. I liked both dishes. They have a smaller selection than the place across town, which is understandable. They don't have the customer base yet. The selection is enough for me and my wife. There are items that they cook to order. The food is freshly cooked and is delicious. We have gone back several times already. read more
