“Need to drive around Seattle looking for Pandesal😊“

“Everybody's favourite hole in the wall Vietnamese joint when everywhere else is closed. Which is, ya know, 9 pm in these parts. They offer a few Filipino and Thai dishes as well. This place is always busy and you never leave hungry. It is a bit loud in here because of the TVs, though.“

“It's a food truck restaurant. But they have covered seating which they share with another pop up Mexican restaurant.A sign in the sidewalk directs you inside a driveway. It's the covered restaurant right there in the left. You can't tell because the sign is for the restaurant they share the eating space with.Menu is very limited but it's well prepare and good.Lumpia is fresh; he rolls and then deep fries them right there. The chicken with garlic rice is tasty. The garlic rice is actually white rice topped with toasted garlic. Try the pork and tocino skewers.“

“Valerio's is pure soul. I do not know how authentic it is to a true Filipino bakery and comfort food but all I can tell you is that the owners are genuine and feel like family. Both from the outwards facade and the interior, it is a run-down family joint. But the incessant local Filipino customer-base that comes by to get their bags of baked goods as well as hot food indicates that it is a locally loved establishment.

There's no menu. You peek over the glass counter and see what they have. Point your fingers to tasty noodles, beef, whatever else that looks good and no matter what you order, you get it at a cheap price with total comfort food taste. You're not going to be hungry. And you're going to be sucking your fingers asking for more.

Pretty much everything is good and can be felt that they're made with love. Make sure you get a stick or two of the Turons (fried banana sticks). The Turons are simply out of this world and that is an understatement.

The bags of freshly baked bread was still warm at 11 am. Pan de Sal, Pan de Coco, etc. all are done in a Filipino way - inheriting from the Portuguese / Spanish history but also mixing the local ingredients like coconut, pineapple, and bananas. It's also quite different from the Hawaiian style of bread.

Valerio's is a local jewel, dishing out love and warmth. It is worthy to drive all the way to San Jose just for this. And we'll be back.

Parking: Plenty of parking in the plaza lot.“

“Great food. I loved the pancit, but they were out of Adobe.“

“Thank you for the order I placed and took frozen to my family 3 1/2 hrs away. Product was still frozen when I arrived. Cooked some up today? came out fabulous and yummy. If you ever decide to do orders for shipping, I'll definitely be a continuous customer. I come there Everytime I'm in the Bay Area ?“

“Deliciously irresistible just being home in the Philippines“

“Great food! My moms first time and couldn’t stop raving about the chicken adobo and the halo halo. It’s pricey but good. And the staff is very nice.“

“Delicious food and friendly staffs“

“Pork sisig silog sarap……..“

“They were closing and only had chicken or pork adobo left. The owner graciously offered a serving of both. The pork adobo was the best I've ever had, even compared to adobo I've had in the Philippines. The chicken was a little dry but still pretty tasty.“

“Fast service, friendly staff, delicious foods.“

“I stop by after work yesterday to get the tiramisu cake for my mother-in-law. Each of us had a slice of it after the homemade hot pot dinner. We were all quite amazed about the texture and the taste. Beyond our expectation! I have to say personally I like it better than 85 °C’s version (or other competitors bakery) especially with the $31.99 price. The guy helped with my pick up was nice, I was in and out for 5 minutes. He gave me 3 packs of different color candles although we didn’t ended up using those. Their paper plates quality are not that good, very thin made. I would suggest just ask for utensils for your cake order. Might go with a different flavor next time for my husband and my daughter’s birthdays in September. :)“
