This continues to be my favorite Valerio's because of their Cheese Pimiento Bulilit ($5.99)! No other Valerio's makes it the same. Unfortunately, this shop is far from me so I don't visit often. I remember the days when it used to be $3 for a pack, but at $6, it is still worth it to me! To be honest, I can't speak to the other bakery items here as I only come here for the one item. I have read reviews of items that have gone bad or go bad quickly so I always inspect the package carefully. Even so, I understand that with many Filipino bake shops, moldy bread can be an issue so I buy knowing that I can get unlucky with a bad/old batch. Service here is always friendly in my experience! It's in a busy plaza and an old building, so don't expect it to be bright and pristine.

3.5/5: Pan De Sal 2/5: Senorita bread 2/5: Customer service *Yes they take card* Overall, lack luster place to get Filipino goods. A little disappointed as back in the Bay Area Valerio's has higher standards for their quality of foods, freshness, sanitation, and friendliness. I was surprised their pan de sal wasn't as fresh as other locations of this chain (meaning constantly coming out and refilling hot/warm rolls, but I suppose that has more to do with supply and demand *or lack there of*). Furthermore, their siopao which in bold letters says "REFRIGERATION required", was out open in the shelves since this morning or longer. When I asked for siopao from the fridge in the back they told me to just get the one from the front... wasn't about to risk food poisoning because of their lack of understanding or care of how bacteria grows on dishes especially with meat when not properly stored. As for their senorita bread that was perhaps the biggest disappointment of all. It was not hot or fresh and was sub par for something so simple. At almost every other Valerio's location it's constantly flying off the shelves and people come to buy it in huge batches, whereas this location was extremely limited and did not offer it as fresh at all. Lastly, their customer service was poor as I tried to tell her the order and she proceeded to engage in conversation with her coworker and had to ask me to repeat multiple times. Overall, this wasn't a bakery or experience for me. The hunt for a good Filipino bakery continues.

Pan De Sal always hits! It gets a little bit crowded so I would suggest going a little bit early. Also make sure that you ask for the fresh pan de sal!

I come here for hot fresh pandesal (Filipino bread baked fresh daily) in the morning. It's a tiny store and gets crowded when it gets busy. They also sell other baked goods. They specialize in Filipino breads. Everything is delicious! There are multiple locations. Come visit one near you.

Some advice: check with the people that work there to see if this is fresh before you buy it. Date says it's good until 11/24 and today is 11/22 but it's super hard

Stopped by on Saturday, 10/21/23. This place is my family's go-to for all Filipino pastries. A LOT of assorted options to try out. This location is very popular and gets crowded inside. Extremely small area and hot. Prices have gone up over the years.

I stopped by and bought the Buko Pandan right before I headed home. While driving home, the excitement built up as I was so glad that I am finally going to enjoy a healthy serving of buko panda once I get home. The moment I stepped inside my home, I went straight into the kitchen, opened the cup of the buko pandan and scooped a spoonful. To my dismay, it already tasted spoiled and sour. I immediately tried to remember the taste to be sour or sweet... and by the smell of it my mouth, I knew it is already spoiled. WHAT A WASTE!

Missing some Filipino delicacies and found it here! Love their banana turon! Will definitely get next time.Thankies
The turon alone is worth the visit. Their version is a bit pricey, but even the price level is a plus for those of us who need some self-control when it comes to turon. Let me tell you more about this turon. It's properly coated with syrup and a hint of something else they do to their syrup. It stays crunchy for several hours. And the inside is almost like cream. Almost. The taste is balanced. Not too sweet that you need a sip of water with each bite. You can taste the saba banana inside that they must have cradled with grandmother love as they gently laid it on top of the turon wrapper for its journey into the hot oven.

I called today, Wednesday, to preorder turon and asked for what was the latest time for pick up - they said 645PM. I proceed to provide my intended order and gave a pick up time of 6PM, since I am unable to pick up prior to my shift on Friday since they open at 7AM. However, they said they can't do 6PM because they close at 630PM. I asked why did the time change. Ignored my question and kept saying the food will be cold. Considering that I am bringing this the next day, I verbalized that I am aware the food will be cold. I also know microwaves exist. Despite asking for clarification, I kept receiving push back and gave up trying. Really disappointed, this isn't the first time I've had to deal with difficultly when purchasing. I've been coming to this location ever since I was a child and I'm really disappointed with how things have been going.
