Alden Richards' Restaurant: Concha's Garden Cafe in Quezon City


Alden Richards' Restaurant: Concha's Garden Cafe in Quezon City

Welcome to Concha's Garden Cafe! I've been a huge fan of Alden Richards & Maine Mendoza, ever since their Kalyeserye days in Eat Bulaga back in 2015. So... My dining experience in Alden Richards' restaurant is definitely a dream come true for me...

Kalyeserye Days in 2015: I watched "Eat Bulaga!" live with my family back in 2015 & got to have a selfie with Alden Richards during the commercial break. Maine was in the barangay that day, so I wasn't able to have a photo w/ her...
My family went out to have lunch in Concha's Garden Cafe, Alden Richards' new restaurant in Quezon City, to experience what the other Aldub Nation fans have been crazy about lately.

Concha's Garden Cafe started out from Gemma Sombrano's big dream of being a cafe owner. The first branch opened in Silang, Cavite in March 2014. Alden Richards, a huge fan of the delicious Filipino food served in Concha's, opened his 1st franchise of Concha's Garden Cafe in Tagaytay City in April 2016. Alden then opened up his 2nd franchise of Concha's Garden Cafe in Quezon City a few months later, after the huge success received in the Tagaytay branch.

Tara, kain na po tayo! :)

Crispy Pata: P650
Masarap sobra! Very crispy & super flavorful to the bones. Good for the whole family (3-5 pax).


Lengua Estofado in Tomato or White Sauce: P300
Perfectly cooked. The lengua (beef tongue) was so soft & so good... The crispy garlic flakes intensified the flavor & gave a uniquely great flavor profile to the dish.

Shrimp Gambas: P290
My favorite dish in Concha's Garden Cafe: the Shrimp Gambas. The shrimps served were huge tiger prawns, served in a rich spicy sauce, topped with lots of crispy garlic flakes & mushrooms. I really loved the intense garlic flavor & the spiciness of the dish.

Homemade Okoy: P180
We ordered baby shrimp okoy, my parents' favorite appetizer. 5 huge pieces were served, perfect for the whole family.

Garlic Rice: P225
We ordered garlic rice for the whole family. Filipino food is best eaten with rice, after all.

Concha's Laoya: P600
We ordered the Concha's Laoya, a bestseller well-recommended by the menu & our waiter. The Concha's Laoya is the cafe's own version of the Filipino beef pochero soup. A sweet soup with huge chunks of softened beef shank, mashed sweet potato, saba (banana), eggplant, & cabbage.

Concha's Pandan & Lemongrass Juice: P90
Highly recommended! I ordered Concha's Pandan & Lemongrass Juice. Very Filipino & tastes so good. With strong hints of pandan & tanglad flavors. Very big serving, good for 2 people.

Concha's Garden Cafe Sylvanas
The cafe has a small pasalubong shop in the corner, selling pasalubong sweets & desserts from the province, such as polvoron, lenguas, jams, pastillas, & sylvanas. We ordered these sylvanas for dessert, and we really loved 'em!

We had a great time at Alden's restaurant, & will definitely be coming back for more visits in the future!
