Experience an All-You-Can-Eat buffet with a huge selection of Kapampangan Dishes here at Cabalen,
This sector has been hit with the lockdowns and we're glad they are still around! Offering the renown Capampangan (Luzon) culinary here in the south, they are among the wide dining choices anyone here in Cebu can try. I was probably expecting a lot since my last experience was before the pandemic in their Glorietta 2 location and it was great. The staff here were giving their best and observing the sanitizing/cleanliness protocols but the food can be better. Not much choices is understandable in recovering from the lost business especially from one of the most affordable buffet in town, but …
367 pesos? Hmmmmmm.... For me... it’s a little too Highway robbery. Not so many food choices. The desert only 4 options. The staff aren’t so attentive! You have to call their attention for at least 4 times! Really? The sink isn’t working! The toilet is dirty a little!
I enjoyed my lunch at this restaraunt very much. A little more pricy, but all you can eat. It was quite crowded when I was there
I wonder why there was no chicken in the buffet. Staff were a little slow in refilling food and the drinks. I had asked the staff more than three times about the grilled squid, the sea shells and the melon juice. The capiz shell hanging at the ceiling was my favorite part.
Location is great amd its conveniently situated inside the mall, very accessible. The price is also very good considering the variety of options and food choices. Kids below 3 feet eat for free. The taste is great too. The only reason why i would only give this a 2 star is that in the middle of our dinner..a cockroach suddenly appeared from under the table into our plate. It was not a nice experience. When we looked at the floor where we were it looks like it hadnt been deep cleaned in a long time. I wouldnt go back specially if i have kids with me. Just didint feel the place was clean.
