Best dang Filipino bakery items ever!!! OMGsh I'm so addicted to the UBé challah bread / rolls and UBé cheese Roll and Cassava Cake!!! Love love love it! I'm a white woman and they're nice to me in there too. Sorry to say, but I used to be an RN and I was discriminated against from this particular culture & ethnicity. Anyways , no one at this store is like that and no hard feelings, for the past issues. This store is amazing! I highly recommend it!!

It was my first time shopping there. I only needed oxtail, which they had! 9.99/lb. Good quality meat. Also bought mung beans, mint and green onions for a salad. Produce was fresh.

Not what I was looking for, Hmart or any other Asian market had much better selections.

Slightly nervous workers who clean the fish carelessly.

I am highly disappointed with island pacific. I bought bread (mamon from Goldilicks - 6 for $27.99) and when I opened the box the mamon were covered in mold. I will never shop here again. They don’t check their inventory.

Nice market! poor customer service, sea food, meat clerks, do not speak English, neither Tagalog, very poorly knowledge, about products, If you have questions, u need to look for Allan, Julio and/or Andres, usually in the early shift...other team members look at you all disappointed, unable to help. Management need to focus on that...If you want to explore, come with tons and tons of patience

Good freshfish selection. Well organized store.

Nice market and a good spot to get some specialty Asian products or produce. After a few visits I’ve found that the specialty produce like galangal or Thai basil are usually very good quality while some of the more common produce like onions, limes etc. tend to be a bit too pricey and just have inconsistent quality. The market also has a good selection of spices, sauces, canned goods and a decent selection of instant noodles too.

The market is always clean and the staff is very friendly!

Tried a chicken BBQ skewer at the restaurant in the market and thought it was just ok. Good amount of meat for the price but flavor was a bit on the sweet side for me. Not my personal taste but I could see people enjoying it.

This place literally is making me rethink how Filipino actually are. I grew up and did business with Filipino people my whole life. They've always been sweet and kind. The last 15 times I've been here I feel like I'm treated like crap. The people around friendly... And they don't seem to want to help at the food court. I noticed they help other Filipino with a little bit more attention and smiles. I don't want to think it but it's got to be cuz I'm white . I never felt like that another Asian market restaurants.
It really makes me rethink how Filipino are. Have they been fake this whole time being nice through the 90s and 2000s ? Now they are showing their true nature?? OR .... Is Island Pacific supermarket a crappy p
lace to work and people are just miserable? 🤷
I'm going to buy my lumpia adobo and Kawaii elsewhere

I got exactly old and dead baluts for $2.99 each. You guys don’t check and refill the new eggs??? This can never be more horrible! Never come back.

This place has very questionable hygiene and food safety practices. I ordered a grilled chicken expecting it to be hot and I’m served a cold chicken skewer. I asked the lady when it was made and she was very rude ! She said she doesn’t know sometime in the morning and was super offended I even asked ! I will never go back here and I don’t suggest you don’t get anything from there cafeteria unless you want to get sick !
