Amazing pies!! Butter chicken and the chocanana pies are 10/10. Definitely coming back. I hope you guys open more locations in the future

Polynesian hospitality just hits differently, the small gestures that makes you feel seen when you've been exhausted taking care of others. I first had Bula Pies at the Aloha Festival last year and was memorable enough that I had to stop by when I was passing by Vallejo where their brick and mortar location is, to try more pies. Try we did as we ordered butter chicken, curry chicken, smoked brisket, and chocanana for dessert. Although we had been eating a lot of takeout, these were different as it was like home-cooking in a pie that warranted 6 frozen ones to go. Vinaka Celestino and Lysandra for making us feel like we were being welcomed to your home and the strawberry guava ripple to put a smile on our face. read more

One of my favorite spots in town! YESSSS Banana pudding, curry pie, lamb pie, ham and egg, strawberry and guava pudding, lamb roll. They're all fire. They now have pressed juices as well in the fridge. Service is top of the top tier. Ambiance is islander vibe and family. They're always smiling and helpful finding your next BFF. If you haven't been, you gotta go! read more

This is a family owned bakery in Vallejo that specializes in Fijian and Polynesian-inspired savory meat pies and sweet treats. I have been wanting to try as I see positive reviews about this place and I love to try local businesses as well. The store looks nice with lights and loud music outside. Plenty of parking on a weekday afternoon. Limited dine in tables and chairs but most are to go orders in this store. I ordered a smoked brisket $13 with all the tax, just to try. It is smaller than I expected. It is warm and the bread is tasty. I was surprised with the meat as it is chewy with an aftertaste I cannot explain. It is weird the other half has the bulky chewy meat and the other half is okay no after taste and the meat is tender and better. The bread is crunchy and tasty and a little bit oily. Reminds me of chowking empanada but those are small and $3-$4 only. I am thinking I feel like it's not worth it and I was disappointed on the smoked brisket. Okay customer service, the screen payment asked for the tip although it is optional. Overall I would like to give them a chance maybe next time. I probably didn't have a good batch or maybe my palate has the problem. It's an honest review and hope wouldn't be bashed or responded inappropriately. Thank you. read more

Flavorful, savory meat pies with a tender and flaky crust. Simple comfort food that's similar to an American pot pie but with a variety of unique fillings like Jamaican jerk chicken, lamb sausage, butter chicken, pot roast, smoked brisket and some sweet ones I was gifted a wonderful frozen pie of smoked brisket by friends (and Yelpers) Joyce and Brandon... the smoked brisket was tender with a slight smoke and that crust was yummy! Cooking time is about an hour in the oven and super convenient for those cooler days! One day soon I will make a visit to Vallejo to try their other items as I'm eyeing the menu. I'm always in search of a yummy pot pie or empanada an Bula Pies Fiji hit the spot. read more

Quick grab and go place with an excellent selection of meat pies. I enjoyed the variety. Staff said the minced meat and cheese is one of the more popular pies. We tried the chicken curry, Jamaican me hungry, roast beef, and pot roast. The pie was filling and I enjoyed the top crust. read more

Small shop in a small strip mall in Valencia that specializes in a variety of savory pies (they have sweet pies and other desserts as well). The folks here are super friendly and warm. The vibe at the shop like going to a very familiar place even if you've been here for the first time. I was working in the area for a little while and I'm a fan of savory pies. I wanted to check this place out. I ended up coming back to this place a few times so I was able to try a bunch of different pies. I haven't had a pie from here that I didn't like. My personal favorite was a special I think they had which was boeuf bourguignon. Even if I had lunch somewhere else, if I was in the area, I would pick up a pie because it became kind of a little ritual where I would bring it to my parent's house and share with my dad the next morning. read more

Very friendly atmosphere and loving the music! We came here to try their pies after 3:30pm. The cashier was friendly and ready to help us out. I'd recommend arriving earlier if there's a particular pie that you want. They were out of the butter chicken pie. I ordered the Mama's Lamb, Chicken Curry Pie, Pot Roast Pie, Smoked Brisket Pie, Jamaican Me Hungry Pie, Lamb Roll, Pineapple Pie, Banana Pudding Trifle, and Guava Pudding Ripple. My only complaints were on the Chicken Curry Pie, Mama's Lamb Pie, and Pineapple Pie, that filling is more mush instead of texture. I would've liked less potatoes/sweet potatoes in the Chicken Curry Pie and Mama's Lamb and not over cook it so the vegetables don't turn into mush. I wasn't a fan of the Pineapple pie so I'll leave it at that. As for the other pies: The Smoked Brisket Pie, Jamaican Me Hungry Pie, and The Pot Roast Pie; absolutely delicious!!! You can definitely taste the smokiness in the brisket, the spices in the Jamaican pie, and the veggies in the pot roast were cooked to perfection! These 3 pies are its own flavors and are well textured with the perfect amount of meats in the them. The Lamb roll was great! The dough that's used to make the pies and rolls, are flakey and melts in your mouth. The Banana Pudding and Guava Pudding is not over sweet and the perfect pairing after eating the pies. Definitely will be back for the 3 pies and puddings read more

SO FULFILLING! I picked up my sisters order for her dinner and I ordered my two for lunch! I got the smoked brisket, Jamaican chicken and also the banana pudding. I ate my Jamaican chicken right away, it was so good!! Full and flavored! Got a nice spicy kick. I loved the banana pudding as well, I wish it had a bit more cookies, but that's a personal preference. The next day I ate my smoked brisket, since I was so full from the other one. I think I would warm it up next time in the air fryer, I didn't like the texture from warming it from the microwave, but once again, personal preference. The staff were nice and definitely gave me grace period while I figured out what I wanted. read more

Highly recommend. Noticed this place back in late 2023 before it went viral and was always curious to see what they served. Driving by back then, they never looked open so I thought maybe that was their commercial kitchen to prep for food/vendor events. After finally seeing them on social media, I decided to give them a try. We were headed to a family gathering and thought it would be cool to bring Bula Pies to share. I will admit I was surprised by the prices, it was more than expected. I originally planned to buy a dozen, but quickly decided on half a dozen. Hehe! Needless to say, the pies were a hit! It was fun sharing. I cut them up so everyone can sample each flavor. I recommend the smoked brisket, beef stew, and mince & cheese. There was a seasonal pie during Christmas. I can't remember the name but that one was my favorite. You can enjoy the pies as a stand-alone meal. You can even take them home and add veggies or a salad on the side. The pies are also available frozen to purchase and bake at home. This small business is worth patronizing. Definitely go and show your support! read more

Been wanting to try this place since they opened, finally got a chance to go. Best new food I've tried in a while. The pie crust was buttery, flakey, everything a pie crust tries to be. Had the Smoked Brisket and it was not at all I was expecting. It was so much better. Pie was filled with brisket and potato with just the right amount of bbq sauce. Can't wait to try other flavors. Might just have to go back later. read more

We got the smoked brisket pie at $15 and the lamb sausage roll at $8. Both were savory and had good flavors. The pastry was flaky and crispy. The smoked brisket has a bbq sauce inside with a layer of potato. The lamb one has a strong gamey taste, don't get it if you can't handle that taste. Quick pick up if you want something savory and filling. read more

My friend and I stopped here on December 28th after we had seen multiple tick tock videos about this fabulous little food place.. It is located in a little strip of stores and make sure to look at the signs I almost walked into the wrong place. So the space itself is quite intimate you have some seating inside by the window and then outside as well probably a total of 12ish people in all can be in those two spaces. Our experience was really nice. The individual behind the register greeted us with a seasonal greeting and then asked us if we had any questions about the menu. My friend had already decided what he wanted based on the tick tock videos and I was all for the lamb pie that they had. He chose the beef stew and barbecue pies. We also got the banana pudding and the very swirl pudding. Overall our favorite was definitely the lamb pie it had just an amazing assortment of flavors and the lamb did not have any gaminess at all. The other two pies were also delicious and for those for me personally they were enhanced by using their chili sauce that they had in the store. I really appreciated the size of each pie definitely a meal. The pudding themselves we liked the banana pudding but the very swirl definitely had more of a bite to it when you bit into the actual berries. The tartness mixed with the sweetness really enhanced the entire thing. Definitely would like to go back and try the rest of the pies they have. read more

Grabbed a couple different pies this past weekend at the Lei of Aloha Festival on Mare Island. Service was fast and more than sufficient. Got the homestyle chicken and smoked brisket. I preferred the latter, but both items were yummy! The homestyle chicken was reminiscent of a handheld chicken pot pie, but with the essence of curry. The smoked brisket had thick layers of ingredients inside, like perfectly cooked potatoes, and a generous amount of bbq sauce. Both pies came in a crispy, buttery, flaky crust. They were definitely satisfying. read more

Delicious! I got the Pot Roast Pie and my partner got the Butter Chicken Pie. Both were soooo good! I also got a kumquat limeade which reminded me of calamansi. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Bula Pies Fiji is such a hidden gem! I tried their Smoked Brisket and Beef Stew pies recently, and both were incredibly filling and packed with flavor! They were not lying when they said the pies are packed with flavor! They are hearty, rich, and perfectly seasoned. It felt like a homemade meal in a flaky pie. I also got to try their Mince and Cheese pie at a music festival, and it was just as delicious. The pies are comforting, savory, and full of that homemade goodness you cannot fake. They even have dessert pies which I'll have to try next time! Each pie has that golden, flaky crust and warm, flavorful filling that makes every bite sooooo satisfying. You can really taste the care that goes into their food. Definitely worth a visit! Parking may be tough but it's worth it, I promise it. They also offer frozen pies that are ready to bake, and an option to ship bulk to your home! I'm definitely thinking about it for the upcoming holiday season! Service: Amazing. You'll feel right at home as soon as you enter. read more

I have been seeing this place online and I was finally able to stop by! Damn this place is good! I love the music playing outside when you walk up. When I walked in the woman at the front counter was super nice and welcoming. I got the smoke brisket, mince meat/cheese, and a pineapple pie. They were all delicious but the smoked brisket was my favorite. I love that they have frozen pies that you can bake at home. I will definitely be coming back! read more

RUN RUN RUN straight to this restaurant!!! How amazing is this place you say, I mean amazing. This place I found on a little secret app and I won't tell you because I will be coming back every time I get it. I was greeted very nicely was so excited to meet the owner because I had so many questions. I wanted to buy the banana pudding and the strawberry dessert but he gave it to me on the house. How nice is that. Well I, was so excited to see the dessert in the spot light, and let me tell you it did not disappoint. Best banana pudding ever!! I mean so good! Like I was invited to their family reunion and everyone cooked a delicious meal! Anyways, sorry I digress, there are so many pies to choose from, some have an American twist, and some with traditional tastes. I hate pie crust on the bottom, but, best believe i ate it all. I swear the whole thing is delicious. These are also pretty heavy, so they will keep you full for a long time. I won't say this is a place to sit and enjoy your meal it's more of a grab and go. Very clean environment and had hot sauce and other items to take with your pies. There were some interesting items for sale, which you can see in my photos. Again, family owned so I appreciate it. I wish we had a place like this in Martinez so I can save a $8 bridge fee. But man, this was worth it! It closes pretty early and I think that is great. The owner can actually enjoy an evening off. I totally forgot, the frozen area is a great idea. I asked the owner and he said they last up to a year! A year! Omg pop these in and eat a delicious hearty meal. At any moment. They need to wholesale this! I have to say.... SHARK TANK. I AM NOT LYING! DELICIOUS So mad I can't add more photos... read more

I can't say enough good things about this spot. Their workers are friendly and greeted us at the door. They have many different flavor, but my favorite is the smoked brisket. I have also tried the minced meat and cheese, and my daughter loved their beef stew pie. They were all good, and their flakey crust is the best part. I saw that they also sell frozen pies for you to make at home, so I look forward to trying those next time. read more

I always drive by this place, but decided to finally give it a shot. When you park in front of this restaurant, you start hearing Polynesian reggae music. The restaurant is small inside, but they do have some tables inside and out for you to eat. They have a good selection of pies. You know it's good when you see the paper starting to have that oil seep through the paper. I also love the flakey skin on the pie. I ordered the mince and cheese. It had a good amount of meat and was very flavorful. The staff was friendly and help point me out to the post popular pies. Definitely give this place a shot. They also sell frozen pies if you want to cook some on your own time. read more

Found from amazing yelp reviews! Holy cow are these little pies heaven. So flavorful and easy to eat out of the wrappers. I got the butter chicken and a veggie to go. My husband got the smoked brisket, Jamaican me hungry, and a pork sausage. This is a destination. Delicious! read more

Great stop in Vallejo! Ambiance - This is a pick to go place only. Limited seating, a standing bar inside and two bistro tables outside and no shade if you catch the early morning sun. Food - They have a variety of pies, including vegetarian along with sweet and savory. Pies average $10-$13 each. Service - The ladies behind the counter were efficient, friendly and answered my questions. I ordered the: chicken curry pie $10 (spicy), smoked beef brisket pie $13, banana pudding $6, kumquat limeade $3.50. I loved everything I tried. The chicken curry took me back to my Brooklyn days of a Jamaican patty. Nostalgic! The Brisket had a hint of sweet which complimented the chicken curry pie. Limeade had just the right tartness and not too sweet. Overall I give this a: 10/10 - flavor, size 9/10 - limited seating area 9/10 - service Yes! I definitely recommend to give them a try. read more

Tried the guava strawberry ripple. The essence of guava wasn't strong. I wanted more guava. We also tried the sausage rolls. They were delicious and satisfying. We also tried the mince and cheese.

Rating is for the pies and customer service from their booth at the Aloha Festival in San Mateo. The Butter Chicken pie was the best food I had at the festival. The crispy flaky crust just went so well with the savory butter chicken. The butter chicken had a very slight spiciness to it but the slight curry flavor and the blend of spices were more noticeable. The pie is like a combination of butter chicken and samosa stuffed in a crispy pie crust. The Pineapple pie was just ok. It had a lot of pineapple but could use a bit more sugar. You can taste the pineapple but at half the intensity. Reasonably priced. Lots of filling. Nice staff at the window. Wish I had tried this before getting the other food. read more

Excellent Service! The vibe without even going in with the island music playing outside gives you the welcome feeling and continues inside where you find unlimited selections of savory and sweet pies in addition to other options you won't find anywhere else!

wow! Went for the first time the other day and ordered 3 pies. All 3 pies were incredible. They are generous on the filling for the pies. The crust is so light and flaky but doesn't fall apart. The brisket is insanely tasty and so is the curry chicken. We also had a pineapple pie which we thought would be probably some fruit filling out of a can but it is actually straight pineapple. Not too sweet and definitely not syrupy. Even though we thought the Pies were expensive at about $12 each, the quality makes them well worth it. Highly recommend! read more

Tried this place after hearing great reviews about it and though the flavors of the pie weren't outstanding for the price, I'd come back and try other flavors. The 3 I tried were the mince & cheese, king kapisi (corned beef) & spicy chicken curry. My favorite was the mince & cheese which is the number one seller. Wasn't too impressed with the other two, but still worth trying out. The banana pudding was delicious and was definitely my favorite item purchased. Overall, I'd recommend this place if you're in the area. Some indoor seating available along with some tables outside. Service was quick and friendly. read more

When you have a taste for something savory wraped up in crusty ,flakly, buttery pie dont miss out onnthis place. Bula pies is putting out the best pot pies ive ever tasted. I had to try a few and i was not dissappointed. Best one I had was def the Brisket....the meat inside was so tender and juicy.Butter chicken was for sure 2nd runner up. You cant't leave without hitting up a dessert cup of banana pupping! Small eatery but big enough to grab a quick lunch in or outside and the service quick and easy.

Stopped in to grab a few pies to go and left already looking forward to my next visit. We ordered 4 pot roast pies, 2 pineapple pies, and a kumquat limeade. These hand pies are phenomenally packed -- and I mean that literally and figuratively. The pot roast pies were hearty and satisfying, filled with generous pieces of beef, carrots, and potatoes, all wrapped in a flaky, buttery pastry that hits just right. The pineapple pies had the perfect balance of sweetness -- not overly sugary, just clean and pleasant. And that kumquat limeade? Refreshing, citrusy, lightly sweet, and the perfect pairing with the pies. Shoutout to the gal working the counter -- warm, friendly, and welcoming, which always makes the experience better. Solid food, great flavors, and clearly made with care. Looking forward to slowly (or quickly) eating my way through their menu. read more

Found Bula Pies online and shared with a friend who visits Vallejo often. She actually beat me there! I get an unexpected FaceTime and it's my friend, standing inside of Bula asking me what I'd like to try. Say less! I ordered curry chicken, lamb, butter chicken, and smoked brisket. The crust was buttery, flaky, think of grandmas chicken pot pie on steroids..absolutely delicious! My hubby and I sampled the pies and my faces were the lamb and curry chicken. Will definitely have to visit myself and try the other flavors. read more

I have been wanting to try this place forever and finally got the chance to. Let's just say I will definitely be back more frequently. They have so much to try and everything we got was perfectly flaky and so flavorful! This time we got the kumquat lemonade and we tried the thanksgiving pie, brisket, and choconana. All of the pies are very filling as well. It was so hard to choose what to get because everything looks so good! The staff was friendly as well and gave us a coupon for an online order. There is seating available indoors and outdoors. This is a must try if you are in Vallejo and definitely a new staple for me. Can't wait to go back! read more
