Reviews for Kubo Chicago in Chicago, IL
So glad to have dropped by Kubo for a date night with my SO! We made a reservation for a Friday evening, but it might not have... been necessary. The service at Kubo was commendable! The hostess, bartender, waiter, and who I presumed was the owner were verywelcoming and excited about the food they were serving. That’s always a plus! My partner and I ordered: - Chicken Eggrolls(Lumpia) - Small Plate Pork Ribs Adobo - Garlic Rice (on the side) - Small Plate Grilled Longganisa After our meal, I know forsure that I’ll be returning! My favorites would have to be the lumpia and the longganisa. The lumpia came with 4 and each onewas about 8” long and presented beautifully. The longganisa was flavorful, came with a lovely, orange dipping sauce and someveggies. I have no complaints necessarily about the pork rib adobo or the garlic fried rice, they had flavor but it didn’tstand out. I just loved the other two dishes the most! I’ll have to come back to try their other desserts! Read more
The food and service was wonderful! We had so many options for Filipino food in the area and only one night to experience a... fraction of it, so I’m so glad I picked this restaurant! I had the lechon kawali which was phenomenal! The fats melted in mymouth and the skin was so crispy! I also got the fish balls and lumpia as appetizers and they were very nostalgic and delicious.I had a lychee martini which was strong! Then I had the halo halo for dessert, which was also very good. I cannot recommend thisplace enough! I think the owner spoke to us and she was incredibly welcoming. I can’t wait to come back! Read more
Went because I found halo halo on the menu and the food ended up having wonderful presentation as well. Great ingredients but... the pork belly dish(lechón sisig) wasn’t crispy enough Read more

Went there just this past Friday..(10/08/21) Near perfect dinning experience. The outdoor seating was spacious, comfortable,... with upbeat..not loud ..energy. The egg rolls..Lumpia..I have been craving Filipino egg rolls for years. At 1st bite I knewthese were the real thing. My Dad had the fried whole fish, flaky and moist..just Don't gobble it down,whole fish hasbones..lol. My beef shank dish was in the best broth with lots of tender beef. The Adobe pork had a yummy sauce. We likedeverything save the fried shrimp appetizer (too much breading)but, the grilled shrimp are on my to do list. Food and atmospherewere great. And I got a lemon drop shot and delicious dessert when they found out I was celebrating a birthday. Can't wait tocome back to Kubo! Read more
