Sharing our dining experience at Kabsat Restaurant in San Juan, La Union.
Kabsat Restaurant in San Juan is popular for its delicious food, spacious
interiors, and an airy upper deck that provides a wonderful view of the
beach (and sunset!). When we went to Kabsat, the crowd was a mix of both
young customers and mature diners. Just the same, I think it’s one of the
most family-friendly restaurants in La Union because of the kid-friendly
food items in its menu plus its roomy dining area makes it one of the most
comfortable restaurants that we tried in the province.
Kabsat Restaurant Review [San Juan, La Union]
Kabsat Restaurant’s ambiance
We went to Kabsat for dinner and while it was already late at night, there
were still a good number of people who were eating and having drinks. It was a
good thing that Kabsat had a second level where there were still available
tables. There were no windows, so the sea breeze provided ventilation (in
addition to the electric fans).

The ambiance was generally easygoing. I would think that most of the diners
that time were also tourists, and the overall laid-back vibe was palpable. Our
table and seats were comfortable and not cramped.
When it was time to order, the servers were readily available to take our
orders.
The food
We ordered Fried Chicken, Tuna Salpicao, Bicol Express, Beef Bulalo, Rice, and
Turon with ice Cream. After a fair amount of waiting time, our food arrived,
and we quickly tried it. I consider the Tuna Salpicao as a standout as well as
the Bicol Express.

The Tuna Salpicao had meaty chunks of tuna, slices of mushrooms, and flavorful
sauce. This is highly recommended if you want to give your palate a break from
all the meat dishes usually consumed during holidays.

Bicol Express |
Meanwhile, the Bicol Express had a nice (tolerable) level of spiciness that
was balanced by the coconut milk-based sauce. It was also extremely flavorful
and we couldn’t help but eat it with a larger serving of rice.

Tuna salpicao |
We usually order bulalo for the children because they love the soup and
Kabsat’s Beef Bulalo didn’t disappoint us. The soup was warming and also
delicious, and also provided a welcome break for a palate from the rich sauces
of the Tuna Salpicao and the Bicol Express.

We capped our meal with the Turon with Ice Cream (Turon A La Mode?). It was
just regular banana turon with scoops of vanilla ice cream. It was also good
but I thought there was nothing unique about it. Of course, the kids had their
eyes on the ice cream, which they definitely indulged in.

In terms of the price, our bill came in with a total of a little above P3,000.
I think it was reasonable considering that what we ordered was good for six
people.
Epilogue
Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Kabsat Restaurant. The food was
delicious, the ambiance was relaxing, and the service was commendable.
