Good mango cake ! We ordered one for our daughter's birthday party and everyone liked it. Not too overwhelmingly sweet

I came here yesterday and was interested in buying a birthday cake for a co-worker. The birthday is in March and I was interested in the Ube Flan. I ordered a slice of Ube Flan for $5 and brought it back to work to get the birthday girl's opinion of it along with my 2 other co-workers. We were so excited that I forgot to take a photo of it, but I will include a copy of my receipt for proof. The flan was dry and the Ube part of the cake was bland. The whole entire thing was tasteless and very crumbly. I don't think they use Ube anything in this but just food coloring. This was so disappointing! Their cakes look so beautifully done and I really want to try it but will definitely not order the Ube Flan. That $5 slice was pricey for something so tasteless. Nobody at work liked it at all. How embarrassing as none of my office colleagues are Filipino and I was trying to give them a taste of Filipino cuisine and what Ube tastes like. That cake was a horrible example.

They have delicious sliced cake...Mango Supreme, Black Forest and Ube Overload just to name a few. I didn't get any of those during this visit. I've been craving Halo Halo, so I decided to get one. Loved it! Great price for a sweet shaved ice treat with mango topping, swwetened beans and lychee. My order was ready pretty quickly and the staff was friendly. At the last minute I grabbed an Ube Mamon (about $2.50), which is chiffon with ube with a strong kick of coconut at the end of each bite. Here's What I Think... This is a wonderful place to grab a quick snack. Check it out.

I think if you want a taste of the Filipino culture at least of the super commercialized kind, I would recommend coming to Red Ribbon. Sure there is the grocery next door and a lot of other Filipino places, but Red Ribbon captures it very well. The workers are very polite and expedient. The wasteful plastic packaging is so classic. The meal options and the baked goods... I like to pop in for halo halo or for coffee. There are a few tables you can sit at and there is more space in the bakery compared to Valerio, but less options. you can order cake I believe and they do have mango cake.

this was our second time getting a cake here and this time around the cake smelled so funky and tasted weird + dry. we purchased the cake on 09/25 and the label stated best buy 09/29 but the cake honestly tasted like it was a week old/had gone bad already. so sad because we usually love red ribbon but this will probably be our last visit here/ at this location.

Mango cake wasn't good. Weird after taste. Mango seems fresh. Only tried the mango cake

My coworker bought an ube flan cake and it was so delicious that I had to get it for my parents' birthday. I don't like ube and I don't like flan but I really liked it from red ribbon! I ended up buying a slice of that to share with my family at midnight, they also enjoyed it and said it wasn't overly sweet. I also got the whole sampler cake to celebrate for that evening's dinner. Everyone thought it was a great idea and it was a even split for everyone voting the best cake: mocha , mango, ube and black forest. I wish they included the flan on the ube portion of the sampler cake! Cake is also getting really expensive these days but it was just $35 here for so many flavors!

Purchased a mango roll cake from here, went home and saw a DEAD ANT upon cutting it. RIGHT AWAY. This is absolutely disgusting. Will be taking the cake back tomorrow for a refund. Really disappointing.

Stumbled upon this Filipino bake shop so got a few items to try. It seems they have descent amount of business and the associates were trying to attend to each customer, so there's a bit of wait. We only tried the pacakaged butter mamon, ube mamon and a chocolate roll but the reviews are good! They taste like cakes and they are moist and soft! The ube one has good flavor! The shop is connected to the Filipino supermarket Seafood City, very simple setting.

This place said close at 8:30 got there at 8:00 and the guys said he cleans at 8 and leave at 8:30!? So they are really closed at 8:00? WTF!

Usually, Red Ribbon has good cakes and we always love their mango cake but one time, my dad bought a birthday cake called the Sans Rival cake to try something new. When we came home, we found out that we had spent $20 on a small biscuit cake which tasted really BAD. We tried to return it but they turned us away, which really shows that they don't care about their customers. Overall, a very disappointing experience...never going back again
