Tried Ka-inato today and it was such a pleasant experience! The place has a cozy and welcoming vibe, the food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly kind. We even got to learn a few sign language gestures from their Deaf crew, which made the visit even more meaningful. 🫶✨ Highly recommended for both the food and the heart behind it. 💯Price is not bad super sulit. Open area so no aircon but they have plenty of fans. We're supposed to eat at Ka Joel's but they were closed and our guide pointed us here instead. Food was okay! Loved their pusit, it was very soft. Communicating with their deaf and mute waiters weren't hard at all. I commend the establishment for giving them a chance! You can pay via card, cash, or even QR code. I paid via QR code. We spent 3500 for 8 people. That includes 3 pitchers of iced tea and all the food you see in the pic. They're fairly priced imo, they also have rice meals if you're not opting for the family sharing option. One of the few places you can get hot fresh cooked eggs instead of the standard cold eggs in a pan, sitting g there for who knows how long. Brewed coffee, not instant, buffet has a good mix of hot and cold foods, no dogs roaming around, very nice NEW bathrooms, clean and artfully decorated restaurant. Wifi and lots of big fans. Just a pleasurable and inviting place to have a 2 hour breakfast 😋 may of the staff are deff, but you have a photo book of signs you can learn which is part of the fun in my opinion. Don't worry, some staff are hearing and speak English. They have parking on the side, and on the street. However, if you park on the street and a van parks next to you, you need a spotter outside to stop traffic so you can back out. This is probably my 12th time eating here, and I come back for good reason.

Great local food and warm service! I enjoyed every dish I tried at Ka Inato Main Branch. The grilled chicken, seafood, crocodile sisig, pansit, and shakes were all delicious. The place has a cozy vibe and friendly staff — I also love that they employ deaf-mute workers, which makes the experience even more special. A must-try when you're in Puerto Princesa!

What's notable with this restaurant is its servers - they employ deaf individuals. Very good service. Oh! And their juice that's unique to this resto 😊
