I sampled Nox Barbecue at the Asian Pacific CultureFest this year and honestly thought the food was flawless. They are a bit pricey, which was what I thought was the reason for their current 4 star rating, but all their "not currently recommended" reviews are 5 stars, so maybe check those out too. Their smoked brisket is my absolute favorite but the sisig and chicken and delicious too. Everything is incredibly tender and well flavored. Even their sides are spot on delicious. The rice and slaw are really well done. I would definitely consider them to cater an event for me in the future and will be stopping by any time I see them at pop-ups, you should too.

Nox chafing dishes.  Long came and set up everything and made it easy peezy! Delicious and easy.  I couldn't ask for more.

Nox Barbecue is a must do, not only for catering your next event, but for just having a family gathering for no reason at all. We've used Nox for a graduation party and for a baby shower and every time people go nuts. I can't explain it, other than I've never had better chicken or brisket in my life. And everything else is amazing too. I've had people say "I'm not a rice person", then they try his garlic rice and are like OMG, this is delicious. I can't recommend this location enough. Long, the owner is extremely nice and accommodating too. Came and set up our entire buffet line for us and came back and cleaned up. It was like we never even had a party. Truly amazing. Once you have it, you'll be hooked.

As a bbq enthusiast, this place is on point! They've been on the radar and I've finally had a chance to try them at the Filipino festival in Elk Grove over the weekend. Everything works perfect each other, well done Long!

It is made of grilled pork face and ears enveloped in a citrusy layer and sweet onions, topped with fried egg. This version is very close to the original recipe in the Philippines. Our next dish is Bulalo, a Filipino beef soup made from beef shanks and bone marrow, simmered until the meat is tender into a clear, savory broth. The serving is a good size, enough for my family! My only negative comment is the steamed rice is $6 for a single serving.!

It seems like there were several take out orders though while we were there. My stepmom and her family introduced me to Filipino food, so I've been eating it since I was a little girl. Not a lot of places to get pancit palabok around here, so I was happy to see they have it here. I was surprised we had to order a side of rice separately to go with the lechon kawali. The price of rice everything added up quickly, and I was a bit sticker shocked when the bill came. The food tasted really good for the most part, but we didn't even order drinks and our meals were almost $100 bucks for lumpia, pancit, lechon and a side of rice.

Take out only. Our…read morefirst time here craving for Filipino food. We were in the area and were greeted nicely by the young gentleman who showed us the menu. It was about 4:30pm and there were no customers dining in. They close at 6pm. We ordered Daing na bangus, pinakbet, halo halo and beef kare kare. We sat in the waiting area about 15 minutes. The halo halo was brought out first and it was so good and refreshing on a hot summer afternoon. Shortly after the entrees were given to us. Everything smelled so good. When we got home, we couldn't wait to eat the food and just dive right in. The food was still piping hot and delicious, not too fattening and not too salty. We enjoyed our meal very much and will drop by next time we're in the area. Nice staff, private parking lot, clean restaurant, clean restrooms.

This one wasn't crispy but still loved it. It's too labor intensive to make fresh lumpia at home so we ordered it. It did not disappoint. The wrapper was soft (thin crepe) and the sauce perfectly paired with it. The filling was also perfect. The serving is huge. all of the dishes are shareable. Rice is ordered separately but very cheap. Service was 5 stars. They are so friendly and professional. You can feel the positive vibes while eating. Place is not that big but spacious enough to have several tables Not a lot of diners but there was a lot of "to go" as well as catering orders. People kept coming in and out to pick up their orders. Not a lot of good Filipino restaurants around Sacramento but this is one of the best ones. They have their own parking. I definitely recommend this place.

I finally got a chance to try Kultura Cafe today for lunch. I had this place scoped out and…read morebookmarked for months! The interior offers multiple tables for indoor dining, a photo op corner, and a walk up and order at the counter style concept. Dining-in is welcome, with utensils and napkins available self serve at the counter. All meals are served in to go containers for convenience. I had already looked over the menu and knew I wanted to try the Pork Belly Sisig. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. I placed my order and added a spontaneous milk tea with boba, 'cause why not live a little. Food and drink came out quickly. The pork belly sisig was great, and consisted of shredded browned pork belly with a side of pickled veggies over a bed of rice, with a fried egg and two pieces of lumpia, garnished with a touch of diced white onion. Very tasty. I ordered the Jasmine Tea boba. Pro-tip: you can ask for less sweet on the teas. He customized my milk tea at 50% sweetness. I look forward to coming back to try the pork adobo, order more lumpia and try the spam musubi. It's been awhile since I've had good Filipino food! I grew up in a very culturally diverse area and missed these dishes, so I'm stoked to have this available right down the street from my work. Definitely come in and show this family run small business some love.

We had to ring a bell for someone to come take our order. We ordered Green Apple Slush with Lychee Jelly. It was over $8. They also charge for using a card. The drink was ready quick but....it was just mid. And especially for the price. But they do have a cute photo op wall.

But for the same price, we can get so much more at places like Oriental Market and just as delicious to satisfy our craving for Filipino food. Parking was easy with plenty of spaces out front, service was great and friendly. Seating space? Extremely limited, especially if you have a party of 5 or more. Best to order for takeout food which brings me to my main point - if I have to order Filipino takeout because of extremely limited seating, I'd rather simply get a la carte elsewhere and pay a lot less or hit up Rocklin area where there are restaurants that serve fantastic boba drinks with fantastic Filipino dishes for much more affordable prices! Is the food incredible? Yes! Will it satisfy your craving for Filipino food? Absolutely! Would I return? No, I wouldn't, to be perfectly honest. Regardless, I feel it's worth a try if you haven't yet but just be mindful of the highs and lows. It's not all great, but it's not all bad. Mediocre and average, at the very least, given all factors. Do I have high expectations of Filipino restaurants? You bet I do!

Expect a wait when you come here because there are a few people working and the food is made to order. I like to order online and drive over when my food is just about ready. This place is great for ready-made comfort food and party trays. I've order party trays from here many times and gotten great feedback. Some personal favorites are their pancit, pancit palabok with large noodles, classic lumpia, and bangsilog.

The Palabok was basically noodles drenched in an overwhelming amount of garlic, with only a few shrimp and a little egg on top. I couldn't even finish it. I had to force myself to take more than one bite, and trying to finish it started to feel like torture. The Halo Halo was somehow even more disappointing. The website describes a creamy boba float served with ice cream, but what I got was mostly milk and clumped shaved ice, with a tiny bit of what seemed to be ice cream and just a few pieces of Fruity Pebbles. For $10.75, it felt like paying for a cup of ice. The Classic Lumpia ($8.50) was only good for the first bite because I dipped it in the sweet-and-sour sauce that came with it. After the sauce was gone, it tasted like nothing but a crispy, deep-fried shell. I wouldn't recommend this place. I paid $28.50 for the Halo Halo and Palabok which was basically shaved ice with some milk and very thin, nearly transparent noodles turned yellow from all the garlic. If I could give them zero stars or negative stars, I would.
