You can actually see them being made through a large glass window. They offer all kinds of ingredients, including pork, beef, chicken, shrimps, and vegetables. They're all good! If you can't make up your mind, get a Try-Pack with three flavours. You can't go wrong! Other items on the menu include Spring Rolls, Siomai, a variety of Fries, and some great tropical drinks.

We were looking for some Filipino comfort food for my mother-in-law. We stumbled upon this…read moreestablishment in Ajax. This restaurant has a small hot table and they also make noodle soup called "Lomi". There's a small dining area good for maybe 10 people max. We ordered 2 beef pares noodles (large) $14.99 and one combo meal 2 $12.99 with a choice of 2 meat (pork or chicken), steamed rice and bottled water. Portion wise, the combo meal was a little bit small but understandable for businesses trying to navigate through tough times. We got the bicol Express and another pork dish with shrimp paste. The pork used in these dishes were very fatty so unfortunately, most of the meat was not edible. A little more attention to the meat selection will go a long way for patrons to enjoy their hot table food. The highlight was the beef pares noodles soup. Took some time for them to prepare it, but well worth the wait. The broth was satisfying, and noodles cooked extra soft for my mother-in-law. The beef brisket was tender and seasoned well. Overall, it was a nice first experience at this local restaurant . I will visit again soon when craving some chicken Lomi or beef pares. The owner and staff were very friendly and treated you like family. Well done.

I've tried several Filipino restaurants, but this one Manyaman located on Kennedy truly stands out…read more The dishes remind me of authentic, home-cooked meals, the kind a mother would prepare with care. So far, I've had their sisig, kare-kare, beef steak, binagoongan, and lumpiang prito, and every dish has been consistently flavorful. The kare-kare, in particular, is exceptional -- rich and perfectly balanced- made with quality ingredients. They didn't cut corners. I'd also recommend their dessert - maja blanca (only $8) and chicharon (I would say is better than Banahaw), which were both delightful surprises. Pricing is fair, especially considering the quality. The packaging is thoughtful too, ensuring the food stays fresh. While the service can be a bit slow at times, the food is definitely worth the wait. This place has quickly become my go-to for Filipino cuisine, and I'm looking forward to trying more of their menu. My only hope is that they maintain this level of quality and not to become like others- becoming overly commercialized. Highly recommended! Lastly, the staff exemplifies great customer service and truly an asset to the restaurant owner- they're great in sales too :)

Visited Berto's to beat this summer heat and left feeling satisfied. The workers are very friendly…read moreand polite. The place was bright and airy as well. We ordered their Halo-Halo, Palabok and their Berto's Fried Chicken. Halo-Halo (5/5) is hands down the best summer dessert. It's so refreshing and had the perfect blend of sweetness and creaminess. They added the perfect amount of ube ice cream, caramel flan and a mixture of jelly, red beans and sugar palm fruit at the bottom. It's a must-try treat. Palabok (2/5) was okay. It was a bit dry and not as saucy as we would've preferred. It could use some chicharron (pork rinds). There's not much protein in this meal other than the boiled egg which was a let-down. We also noticed that some of the noodles have crisped up as well which must've been from the heat lamp/steam table. The dish could use some shrimp and topped with some fried garlic chips. Berto's Fried Chicken (5/5) was delicious. It was fresh, tender and juicy. It had the right amount of seasoning that didn't make it overwhelmingly salty. The garlic fried rice and fried eggs were a great combination with chicken. Any of their breakfast items have always been good.
