This is my go to Asian market, especially for Filipino food. They have a fast food restaurant and bakery in the front of the store. The food tastes good, although sometimes depending on your preference, a little on the salty side. We have catered from here for parties as well, and got great compliments on the food so it's easy to recommend this place. I've had great experience all around with customer service. The store is clean and well stocked with a variety of stuff I always look for. read more

I came here to try the halo halo the I have heard about. This is a market and they have a food station and sweet station. If I were to rate the halo halo alone, I'd give it a one star. This was nasty to me. They put jelly stuff on the bottom and it has beans mixed in there, there is some kind of sweet milk and they put a lot of shaved ice only it's more like chunky ice bits that does not taste like shaved ice at all. It was like they put the ice in the blender. Then they put a tiny bit of ice cream on top which was the only part I liked. I gave this place a 2 star because I have been in there before to buy a few things that normal grocery stores don't have. I'm not sure if all halo halo taste like that or it's this place but I would not recommend it or ever get it again. read more

Was so excited to go watch and possibly participate in the LUMPIA EATING CONTEST today but, was so DISAPPOINTED to find out that they moved the contest to another location at LAKE FOREST... I saw some TENTS being set up outside and in front of the supermarket. Looks like they were selling some skewers!... I saw another friend from YELP there! @CryettiS she said she was in line for a while probably an hour or so. She was so kind enough to share her delicious fish ball skewer with me. I was saving my stomach for the LUMPIA contest so I was so hungry... It was unfortunately too HOT and the line was not moving very fast so we decided to leave the line... SKEWERS: 10/10 looked delicious though! There was all kinds of skewers!! CHICKEN, LONGANISA, SHRIMP BALLS, LOBSTER BALLS and more!! I hope they will have another Lumpia eating contest around Temecula in the future. They will have a lot of support here for sure... LET'S GO Island Pacific Supermarket!!!! read more

The workers along the isles are rude and never know what im looking for. They don't know what some veggies are and they don't know practically 80% of what they have in their inventory. The workers look like they just don't want to help. The girls at the cashier ate fine. Its highly unorganized here. Its very dirty and the produce, meats, seafood is not fresh. The fruits and veggies are often spoiled, old, and look compromised. Also, its very expensive here. They sometimes have sales on shrimp but that's all really. I come here to buy packaged things like dry noodles or bottled ingredients. I buy here as a last resort. My greatest peeve about this place is the entrance. You have to walk through the check out line to go into the store. Or you can walk pass or through tables of people eating their disgusting food from Phil house. This place is grossly inefficient in floor layout. Of all grocery stores, this by far is the worst. read more

Pretty good spot to grab food and groceries in the area. They have ilocos empanadas if you're looking for some

Drove over an hour to give this place a try. I couldn't have gone all this way without purchasing anything. But the customer service was HORRIBLE! The workers were very rude. My Filipina mom spoke Tagalog when trying to order, and workers acted like they didn't understand, and only spoke English so we spoke in English, but they spoke Tagalog to the customers that were before us as well as after us. They were rushing us to order when we were asking them questions, this was around 6:30pm. Not sure why staff was rude to us the only thing we can think is because my family is of mixed race and my mom and myself were the only ones speaking Tagalog yet they refused to speak to us in their native tongue. This review is to the staff in the hot food area btw. It was 3 women (2 older and 1 younger) working. The staff in the dessert area were really nice and actually apologized for our experience. This place was definitely not worth the hype and drive they try to show on social media. read more

Went back to this place, found out who was the old lady with big time attitude, raising her voice to customers. It's the manager on the ready to eat/ cooked food area. One of the staff who accidentally slip thru our conversation , that it's the manager , when we described her, and she was known as Per the said staff, as mean, and that is how she usually act. This sounds like a call for proper training in customer service and leadership!!! read more

Food: a variety of asian food. Cant go wrong with this. Service: Helpful, quick, ease at check-out Ambience: Great lighting, neat, clean. ... I have never seen such a clean, fully-dtocked shelves. I mean, they didnt jave the fish balls brand i wanted as they ran-out, but overall, this place is smaller than the normal Island Pacific Market, still good! read more

Clean store. All the butchers in the meat section are very accommodating ang helpful .

I thought this was a great grocery store that had a deep selection of Filipino food plus a hot deli station and butcher. The deli section had an expansive menu and the long line supports that it must be good. It had frozen and a bakery too. I loved their fresh produce. read more

This is my "go to" Asian Store. Good food, good service, good selection of Asian food and other items. Isles are always clean and shelves are fully stocked. However, this is the second time I've seen your employees used the restroom with their aprons on (which is unsanitary), and now I'm wondering if they even wash their hands. Can you please retrain your employees? Thank you! read more

Stopped by here for the first time with mom and sister. The positives we noticed were that some things cost less here than in SD. Specifically, the eggplants, mangoes, fish sauce, soy sauce, and vinegars. After check out, my sister ordered some chicharon bulaklak, but IMO it was a bit too salty and overly cooked. It's a good thing they provide a bunch of suka to cut through all that richness. We also ordered bibinka and buko pie, both freshly made and delicious. read more

This is a great alternative if you're tired of 88 Ranch in Temecula. The prices can be cheaper depending on what you're buying. We found most ingredients we wanted for our sinigang dish. This place is newer, organized, and cleaner than other comparable markets in the area. *Plus side is that they offer military discounts! Service is good. My partner and I ate at the little restaurant while we were shopping, food was decent for a whole grilled tilapia, tocino, and rice. I will try the fried bangus next time we visit. read more

Maybe they changed to cheaper flour, but the dough is thick and hard and the taste is bad (salty). The original dough wasn't so thick and hard. The original dough was delicious, so it's a shame! I'll never buy it again. It's a waste of money. read more

First time to visit this market yesterday 5/29 around 4pm. Loved all the fresh vegetables. At The Ready food grill, workers are not friendly. Puro nakasimangot ang mga workers. No customer service etiquette. They looked upset and angry when you ask questions about the food. At nagdabog pa. Bad customer service. read more

This review is for their fantastic bakery. They had many baked goods on display just tempting me, calling out my name. I was in absolute heaven. Came by after eating at Philhouse. I ordered the following: Bibingkang Malagkit, Carioca Langka, Turin, Kutsinta, Chicken Empanadas, 2 Bibingkas, and Coconut Macaroons. Sorry I forgot to take photos of the dazzling array of goodies. Service was very friendly and quick. The place was clean and bright. Not much of an ambiance since it's a casual counter experience. The desserts and the empanadas were delicious and brought back many happy memories! I will be back but due to dietary restrictions not as often as I'd want! So tempting. read more

The Filipino food served at the restaurant is very authentic and delicious. We would like to recommend this place if you are thinking if Filipino food. read more

What I love about this place is that they combine an easy in restaurant with an Asian grocery store. There aren't many Asian groceries stores in the area so I'm happy that they have this location in the area. The restaurant portion of the business is pretty awesome. As soon as you walk in, you are greeted with the bakery section. They have a great variety of Filipino desserts and snacks from pandesal (Filipino buns) to ensamada (buns topped with sweetened butter) and beyond. You turn the corner and the vast amount of Filipinl dish options await you. You can order a la carte but the best option would be to go with their combos. You can either choose white rice or pancit(noodles) and an entree(s) from 1, 2 to 3 entrees and the portions are massive! read more

Okayyy so I was craving something crispy and crunchy. I needed some crispy chicken skin and I am glad this market sells them!! I grabbed some sweet and spicy sauce on the market side and got myself a 1/2 lb of chicken skin in the cafeteria across from it. While in line, I also saw some fried intestines and fried mini lumpia. Of course, I had to get them too! :P They all go super well with that sweet and spicy sauce. Super glad this market exists. The market side almost exclusively carries Filipino ingredients, so it's a niche place. (Comparing to 88 Ranch or 99 Ranch market). The ambiance is expected for Asian market. Bonus points for all the ready-to-eat food in the cafeteria. They even have tables and chairs there for you to enjoy the delicious food if you can't wait to get home. Oh my mini lumpia are not pictured, they were devoured by my husband and my hungry toddler before I was able to take pictures x.x read more

My first time here was within the first year it had opened. I found the entrance and the area where the cooked food is available, seemed dark and worn. I came here with my mom because a friend informed me that Tuesday is Senior Discount Day. I'm sure my mom would appreciate that part of visiting. Before we even started shopping mom suggested that we eat first. We checked out the prepared food and there was quite the selection! We decided to both get a two item combo. I found the food to be pretty darn good, as for mom it could use some improvement. It didn't surprise me that was her reaction since she is a Filipina and has been cooking our selections for years! No cooking like moms cooking.... Any who, I enjoyed most of the food and packed up our leftovers and went on our way to the grocery shopping part of the store. By the way, the customer service and the food area was a hit and miss with 'friendliness' part. We didn't have the same employee serving us throughout. We hit the fresh fish area and after mom selected her choices we went to the counter where they exchanged fish and numbers. When the fish were cleaned our number was called, didn't take more than 10mins. This area was being stocked with ice and fish. It was clean and organized as well. I found this to be the same throughout the store. The aisles are quite narrow, especially in the produce area, this can be very frustrating. There is a lot to find here as far as Asian ingredient's you are bound to find what you are looking for. There is a designated to line up for check out. The lines went quickly as all of the registers were open. I would definitely return for a bite an a little bit of shopping. read more

Ate Aurora was awesome!. We love coming here, there are ton of choices. We will definitely come back. The food and service is great!

Sadly, the food is not fresh. I understand they are cutting on cost but there is no integrity with their food. This Filipino shop was my go to for take out when I don't want to cook. Once you get in line, it will take an average of 20 mins just to pay even if there's only 3 people in that line. It's slow, but I wait because that's the Filipino culture. However, the food not being fresh is unacceptable especially for the price. Lumpia and smelt are soggy, not even warm. Same with the fish. I've been lucky to get fresh food on the weekends when it's busy.... But expect to wait in a long line. Those Titas take forever but all good, we wait. Island Pacific, if you find this review, please update your food and make it fresh. I would never serve food at my house to my guests that are a day old. PS- the halo halo is good (but that's about it) read more
