" I enjoyed my meal at Kalabaw, especially the variety of flavors. However, I do feel that some dishes would benefit from a bit more seasoning. The ambiance is definitely more upscale, which is a nice treat. The service was friendly, yet a little slow at times. Overall, a good experience worth revisiting. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Kalabaw was quite disappointing. The atmosphere was nice, but the food didn't meet my expectations. I ordered the Tom Yum soup, expecting a rich flavor, but it was bland. The service was decent, but they seemed overwhelmed even though the restaurant wasn't full. I'll consider giving it another shot, but I might explore other options first. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Kalabaw last weekend, and wow, what an experience! I ordered several dishes to share, and every one of them was better than the last. The service was quick, and our server didn't miss a beat when it came to suggesting drinks. Each dish was crafted beautifully and tasted excellent as well. Great place to celebrate a special occasion or relax after a long week. " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible food and incredible service! The soft-shell crab was perfectly crispy, and the accompanying dipping sauce had just the right kick. The ambiance was relaxing, with modern decor and soft lighting that creates a warm feel. On the pricey side, but worth it for the experience. Highly recommend for a special night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" On our visit to Kalabaw, we found a vibrant atmosphere paired with delicious meals! I especially loved the creative takes on traditional dishes and the friendly service made the evening enjoyable. The only downside was the slight delay in having our order taken, but the food made up for it! I’d love to try their brunch menu next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friend and I tried Kalabaw for the first time last week, and it was fantastic! We ordered multiple appetizers, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere was sophisticated yet relaxed. Our server was very accommodating and engaged with us, enhancing the whole experience. Can't wait to have dinner there again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes after reading the reviews, but my experience didn't quite match. The service was friendly, but I found the food to be lackluster. The ambiance was nice, but the flavors in the dishes felt muted. I ordered the curry, expecting it to be rich, but it didn't deliver. I might return for drinks but not for a full meal next time. " (*Curated Review*)
