Kuya J Restaurant Origins

We first ate at Kuya J Restaurant in Cebu more than 10 years ago. Many things have happened since then.

Now, their model of a restaurant is open for franchising and we already have a branch here in Bacolod City. It is located at the SM City Bacolod north wing (near the atrium). And if I may add, many people dine there whether for lunch or dinner.

Kuya J has also enlisted famous actor Jericho Rosales as its celebrity endorser, catapulting the restaurant to nationwide fame. By the end of 2015, Kuya J restaurant has opened a total of 30 stores nationwide. Moreover, they are still on the works for opening more branches.

But even without Mr. Rosales, I believe that Kuya J will easily win the favor of Filipino diners around the country because of their mouth-watering Pinoy dishes. These are prepared with a twist but are perfect for the palate of local diners. Last year, a few years ago, wifey and I even had our anniversary dinner there.

Kuya J Specialty Fried Rice

One of the things that we like about Kuya J is that they don’t just serve white rice, yellow rice, or garlic rice. They have interesting rice bowls for three to five persons, depending on how much rice you eat. Plus, they are all flavored.
