Cabalen, a buffet restaurant located at the SM City Cebu Northwing features "Authentic Campampangan" dishes (per their website). Came here for an early family dinner last June on a quiet Tuesday night.At Php 298 per person the price is among the lowest in its class (drinks excluded). Thanks to its location & accessibility inside a popular mall, it is worth a visit if you're intrigued by Capampangan cuisine and simply want to give it a try.The food - nothing really special or super enticing about it, just the usual Pinoy fare; although I found myself enjoying their crispy crablets and Bringhe (Pampanga's version of the paella) a bit more than the other dishes on display. The thing is, the service was rather sluggish even when the place was just half-full. Empty dishes were not replenished quickly enough - a big no-no in any buffet setting.With the emergence of other buffet places in the city, each trying to outshine one another, Cabalen is unquestionably facing some tough competition. How to win over customers and transform them into regulars is probably a gameplan for management to consider for the future. Keep your food displays fresh & speed up your refilling process, please.

if you’re searching for delightful local dishes, then you should drop at this eat-all-you-can buffet. for desserts, their chocolate fondue is a must-try. drinks are paid separately. service needs improvement though. however, it was an awesome dining experience

At first I was intrigued by this Luzon-based restaurant & when I tried it, I say they serve good old Filipino buffet at competitive price. Most food being displayed here came from the north & this way you will appreciate what they provide like lechon kawali, sisig, dinuguan, kare-kare, bopis, halo-halo, biko, buko pandan, sapin-sapin, etc.😊 Craving for a quick Filipino feast, this is my bet for you!😁

THE WORST OF THE WORST BUFFET EVER!!! I would never ever recommend this to anyone even to strangers. Worst service and worst food combined. The price 289 is not fixed because drinks and vat is not included. It would reach around 330-350 pesos per person total. Food is barely even cooked, water served is not clean specifically the glass. Ice has tiny bugs on it. Very minimal choices of food. A waste of time and money!

My favorite food of all time is kare-kare, a kapampangan dish. Cabalen is a kapampangan-based resto. I admit, I went there only for the kare-kare. I was expecting more since this is their forte. Sayang, mas lami pa ang kare-kare sa Kuya J. To be fair, it wasn't that bad. It is delectable it is just that I was expecting more. The buffet, few choices lang, mas daghan kakanin. I love the pancit and the dessert na morag halo-halo.
