Magna Kainan is the passion project of Chef Carlo Lamagna, Food & Wine’s 2021 Best New Chef and 2022 James Beard finalist and Chef Max Mackissock (Michelin recommended A5 Steakhouse and Michelin Bib Gourmand awarded Ash’Kara). Kainan, which means “eatery” in Tagalog, will be a refined, woodfired approach to Filipino comfort food..
At Magna Kainan, just like our sister restaurant in Portland, Oregon, Magna Kusina, our mission is to share the vibrant flavors and rich traditions of Filipino cuisine and culture through a contemporary lens. Whether you’re new to our culinary heritage or a longtime fan, we aim to create an experience that resonates deeply and sparks joy and connection.
We believe in the power of food to bring people together. Our doors are open to everyone, and we look forward to creating a space where great meals, creative cocktails and a warm, welcoming ambiance unite us all. As we say in our family, “Mangan tayon!”—Let’s Eat!

The place is fine, but everything about it feels like it's trying too hard. Our server was over the top effusive, and while I really appreciate good service and attentiveness, this was disingenuous and borderline obnoxious. No amount of trendy dishware will make up for the over-priced food; far too common in this Globeville/RiNo neighborhood. The salmon and lamb were tasty, but we don't need to go back.

Ate here during restaurant week. It was quite tasty and different from other cuisines in Denver. The drinks are very creative and pleasant to look at. We ate at the Chef's Counter - the best way to watch and learn and enjoy your meal. Everything we had was quite good - pork fried rice, salmon, a skewer of chicken, lamb in a hearty sauce, pork belly, cabbage, the rolls with 2 different butters and the egg cake for dessert. Attractive restaurant and not too loud; it's definitely worth trying to see if you enjoy Filipino food. We're likely to bring friends next time we go back.

Interesting food, good service, beautiful space. Trendy for sure. Some of the dishes were a miss but the crab fat noodles with a soft shell crab were a 10!

The food was okay - some dishes were way better than others. The fish was undercooked on my second course, but the sauce and the crisp on it was DIVINE. They really lost us with the poor service. We waited a very long time for our entrees and tables that sat after us got their food first. In my opinion, the whole situation should’ve been handled better which I honestly think is a poor training issue with their staff. Now they DID comp our drinks which was super nice and we do appreciate it but we probably won’t be back. Which is a shame because I really wanted to like it!

We were seated in the back room, and if they try to put you there, I’d recommend saying no! The acoustics were pretty bad, making it quite loud, it was hard to hear each other. That said, the food was good, and the service was great!

The food was delicious and unique. The drinks also were beautiful to look at and again unique. In spite of the chaos of Restaurant Week, the service was friendly and prompt. We highly recommend this restaurant. The only request: turn down the music a little.

We recently dined at Magng Kainan during Restaurant Week, and overall, it was a mixed experience. The ambience was really nice—warm and inviting, making for a pleasant dining atmosphere. We opted for the Restaurant Week menu, which featured some items not available on the regular menu. The skewer appetizers were a highlight—charred beautifully and packed with flavor. However, the main dishes were a bit of a letdown. The lechon belly lacked seasoning, though the accompanying sauce helped elevate it. The lamb caldereta, while well-cooked and flavorful, was overpowered by the taste of olives—rather than feeling like a creative twist, it seemed more like an oversight. When I mentioned this to our server, there was no effort to address it, which was disappointing. Service-wise, I wasn’t impressed. The staff simply placed the dishes in front of us without any explanation, leaving us to refer back to the menu to understand the components of our meal. Additionally, I had noted in the reservation that I was celebrating my birthday, but there was no acknowledgment of it at all—not even a simple "Happy Birthday" from the staff. It wasn’t a dealbreaker, but it did feel like a missed opportunity to make the experience more special. The saving grace of the night was the bibingka for dessert—easily the standout dish! It was served individually, cooked in a banana leaf with a wonderful charred flavor. However, I later noticed that on subsequent days, they switched to baking it in a sheet pan and cutting it into squares. While that might be more efficient, I personally preferred the original presentation. This dessert deserves a spot on their regular menu! Overall, while some dishes fell short and service could be improved, I’d still be open to giving Magna Kainan another try.

Really impressed. A comfortably casual, yet exciting atmosphere. The portions were generous. The lumpia, adobo fried rice, inasal chicken and pandesal were all perfect. Cannot wait to come back!

Overall, it was a good experience. We had the kordero, lumpia shanghai, tokwa, adobo fried rice, and and the kare-kare. Our favorites were the lumpia shanghai, tokwa, and kordero. The kare-kare was a bit of a let down. It was missing something - salt or spice but was a flat way to end the meal.
