    Bulacan bakery is a Filipino bakery that offers great selection of bread, pastries, desserts. They accept cash or card (I believe minimum $10?) Plenty of parking, it is located next to Island Pacific Supermarket and PhilHouse. Small space, looks old, people come and go.

    Small little Filipino bakery. I come here all the time to get my chicken empanada fix. They are even kind enough to warm them up for me when I ask. Everything is super yummy from the pan de sal to the Turon and karioka . You really can't go wrong with anything. I do recommend taking cash as there is a minimum if you choose to use card.

    We stumbled upon this wonderful bakery in Vallejo about a year ago and I still can't stop thinking about their delicious pork buns! Sometimes the craving is so strong we have to cross the bridge just to satisfy it. We tried a few of their other items and there are several more we intend to try as well, but the them pork buns? Snacky snack snack! And with a little sambal? Heaven.

    I've tried several things from here but the stand out are the I've crinkle cookies. Like OMG!!!!! Perfectly sweet and buttery, slightly crisp exterior and pillowy soft interior. I have to stop myself from getting another pack too frequently. They're delicious!

    Bulacan Bakery is a very decent Filipino bread and dessert shop. It's a small bakery but with plenty of freshly baked goods. My favorite is their bitso bitso because it is only $1.75 a piece and it's huge! It's like a beignet but the dough is flavored with margarine (?) and sprinkled with sugar. I also always buy their ube or cheese breads, and they actually last me a while without expiring or tasting stale. What I really appreciate is the unique flavors of baked goods they offer. For example, they have a variety of strudels (mango, pineapple, guava, cream cheese) and literally almost all of the common and popular Filipino desserts (karioka, bibingka, turon, and many more). I'm quite disappointed with some of the negative reviews here regarding their customer service. I am not a frequent customer here (maybe only once a year visit) nor do I speak Tagalog to them, so I'm literally always a new customer to them, but I've always had a pleasant experience. There is no indoor seating, so I don't really understand the high-quality customer service experience that reviewers are expecting from this bakery.

    If you're in the mood for some Filipino baked goods, this is a great spot to pop into. It's in an old shopping center, which houses a Filipino super market (Island Pacific), and a bunch of small restaurants up and down the strip. I like their empanadas, cream cheese rolls, and cream cheese bread. Okay, I'm just a sucker for cream cheese. Their turon and karioka are good too, but the turon tends to sell out early. The karioka are huge and they have a great chew on the inside, with a sweet crisp glaze on the outside. The sweet cream cheese rolls in the glass case have a similar look to the ones at Portos except the outside has a glaze instead of sugar. They're chewy if you try to eat them room temp/cold so make sure you throw them into the air fryer to crisp up for optimal taste. They're good but sometimes the glaze is way too thick, even warmed they're chewy and overly sweet. It's hit or miss! They offer a few different flavors but I haven't tried them yet. The cream cheese bread is sooooo soft and fluffy and super filled with cream cheese. These taste like stuffed Hawaiian rolls and are so delicious with a little smear of strawberry jelly. Even without the jelly, these rolls are perfect with a short trip to the microwave or air fryer. Even warmed, the cream cheese is melty but still holds its shape without getting all over the place. These are on the wire racks along the well, and they come in a few diff flavors like pimento cheese or ube. You get 9 pieces for $6 and some change. If you want something savory, definitely give their empanadas a try. They have chicken or beef options and cost about $3 each. They're pretty chunky so I think they're worth the cost. The crust is buttery and flakey, and so good once warmed in the air fryer. They're nicely filled but the flavor is pretty light. The chicken is shredded and you get a good mix of veggies inside - mushrooms, carrots, onions. It's a little sweet though. The beef is ground and you get a similar mix of veggies, except no mushrooms but they add raisins. I take the raisins out though, not a fan. If they made a spicy option, I'd be all over that. I wouldn't go as far to say this is my favorite Filipino bakery, as they keep a small selection of baked goods only, however they're a good option if I need a quick fix. If there's any thing to take away here, I'd say it should be get an air fryer if you don't already have one so you can warm up all your goodies!

    Just walked in to see their choices of baked goods. My daughter in law wanted Sapin sapin ... a multi colored sticky rice cake dessert. The store doesn't have a lot of Filipino delicacy displayed , so i asked the lady at the register if they have what I was looking for. Without even making eye contact she said "Wala" !!! It means none! So we left .

On top of that, former Golden State Warriors player Festus Ezeli has been here and said he loved the wings, so we had to check it out while we were in the area. When we got there, it was already busy, but we were glad we were able to get a table right away. Good thing we came when we did, because a wait started forming shortly after. We did have to wait a bit for our food, but it was understandable--they had a steady flow of call-in and DoorDash orders going out. We ordered the garlic soy wings, salt and pepper fish, and shrimp fried rice. First off, the shrimp fried rice actually had real, good-sized shrimp--not those tiny ones you sometimes get--which we really appreciated. The wings were flavor town: crispy, packed with flavor, and super satisfying. Even though you can see peppers in the dish, there wasn't really a spicy kick, which is different from San Tung, where there's usually a slight heat. That said, even without the spice, these wings absolutely live up to the hype. The salt and pepper fish was also a standout--crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Overall, I can see why people compare this place to San Tung. They're both delicious, just in their own way.

    Traditional Filipino dishes [Vallejo CA]…read more We were in the area and were looking for a place to eat preferably serving Filipino cuisine since we have limited options in Roseville. Hubby found this restaurant and so we drove to the place. First thing you'll notice once you enter the restaurant is the warm temp inside - no AC but they have electric fans going on. To the right is a long shelf with a variety grocery items while the table seating is laid out in the center. TV was tuned in to a channel playing a Filipino movie. This is a "turo-turo" style food ordering, meaning no table service instead you go to where the dishes are cooked in large portions (which is towards the back of the restaurant) and you choose which ones you want. We ordered: Pork Sinigang - a little too sour for me but this is a classic Filipino soup with pork ribs, vegetables, and tamarind broth. Bistek (beef steak) - thin slices of marinated beef before smothered in a deeply savory sauce and topped with golden-seared onions Pork Adobo - classic Filipino dish of pork simmered in vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic Kaldereta - goat meat stew I didn't try the kaldereta but all the other dishes were good and delicious. You will definitely feel the Filipino hospitality here. Street parking. Maraming salamat! Review #3929

We originally went for the viral Ilicano Empanadas, those did not disappoint either.

I cannot say I can finish two and I'm a big eater too. The spiced vinegar served with them cuts the richness of the deep fried goodness. ProTip...make sure you get the bits of picked onions and peppers in the vinegar to add a nice bite to the already delicious empanada.

Out of all of them, this empanada was probably my least favorite one. My mother & father in law are from the Philippines and they agreed. These are really stuffed with meat but they were really dry. The egg was also fully cooked, I prefer a soft runny yolk. The ratio was probably 50% meat, 30% mung bean, and 20% papaya. It was just sooo dry, you definitely needed to drench that in vinegar to get through it. The outer shell was really crispy though! + points for being able to order & pick up same day! A lot of places you need to order in advance.

First off, portions are huge. Love their silogs and the many protein options they offer such as bangus, longanisa etc. Second, not only do they offer breakfast plates but they have sooo many other entree options that seem to rotate daily. It ranges from chicken adobo, to dinuguan, all the way to kare kare and much more. Lastly, they have tons of filipino dessert options spread across shelves on the walls for those who love their carbs and sweets. For 3 breakfast plates, and XL entree, one juice and chicharron, we paid a total of $88 (not including tip). Pretty pricey overall but dang did we buss down on the plates when we got home LOL. Love Cabalen as well as all the workers. They're all very sweet and helpful!

Their portions are decent but prices might be on the high side. Everyone there is always friendly and welcoming though. They used to have more seating but now they have just one table inside because they made space for a couple of refrigerators and a shelf for bread. It's a tiny place and there's no outdoor seating so not really a place where you can sit and eat unless you get lucky and arrive early and no one is sitting at the table. I especially like ordering the big platter of Shanghai lumpia for parties with friends or for my child's classroom (it's always a hit with everyone young and old).. my only gripe is the timing of pick up. I used to order over the phone right when they open all the time but 100% of my orders are never ready at the specified time. Even though I give a specified time for pick up I end up waiting at least 10-15 minutes more after the time I requested. I thought maybe it was because I was ordering over the phone and not paying until I get to the restaurant for pick up later in the afternoon so thought I'd try ordering in person, paying up front and giving a pick up time for a few hours later. We arrived a few minutes early and they actually didn't have it ready and I, unfortunately, still waited a little bit. In any case, the wait is usually worth it but if I'm extremely pressed for time I think I would call ahead of time to let them know I was coming to pick up.
