Great food great times
Our party of seven received prompt and courteous service. We all tried different dishes and all were excellent. The menu is huge and we look forward to trying more offerings on our next visit. The owners are native of the Philippines and have brought a piece of the islands to the Triangle. I highly recommend Kainan Filipino Restaurant.    [27 Dec 2005 23:02:56]

Excellent food
It is too bad I found Kainan my last day visiting Raleigh/Durham. The food and service were excellent. I had an appetizer that I could not pronounce, but it was perfect.

I don't know what the name of my entree' was but it was pork with carrots in a tomato garlic sauce. I also had the Philipino rice which was also excellent.

The only thing that they did not have was iced tea, but they are in the process of getting this. I highly recommend this restaurant and will return next time I am in town.    [31 Jan 2006 18:20:09]

Great Experience
My group of 5 really enjoyed Kainan! We especially liked the lumpia (soft rolled appetizer w/ shrimp), very tender pork in pineapple juice, and kare-kare (beef w/ peanut sauce).

I hope to make it to the grocery next door (same owners), the only Filipino store unless you drive to the east side of Raleigh.    [04 Feb 2006 18:53:29]
