About Japino

Japino is a restaurant that offers a unique blend of Japanese and Filipino cuisine, serving gourmet quality home-style dishes. The menu features various signature dishes, including the Gyudon and Kim's famous dumplings, known to be some of the best. The restaurant emphasizes real homemade Japanese food, with all meals cooked to order by a talented chef. It is a cozy, hidden gem with free parking at the back, providing a quiet and personal atmosphere away from the busy city. The food is highly praised, especially the Cod Roe Spaghetti, which is creamy, flavorful, and served in generous portions. The Chicken Katsu is tender and juicy, and the curry is thick and beautifully blended with delicate flavors. The chicken porridge is comfort food, and the fried chicken is a hit with families. Takoyaki and chicken Karaage are served hot and well above average. The restaurant is operated by one chef, giving it a charming, homey feel that reminds many of Japanese hole-in-the-wall spots. Despite a small space, the quality and care put into each dish make it a highly recommended place to enjoy a meal that feels cooked with love and passion.
