we come here to buy their adobo and igado but recently they have stopped cooking these. you wonder why they dont serve these when it is almost always sold out. And when you call, their servers/employees lack the courtesy and enthusiasm of service… napaka-masungit ng mga ale.

when you go there in person, there’s a couple who are real sweethearts but then if you win the draw, you get to be served by the masungits!!

to the owners of this establishment… pagsabihan nyo nga yang mga masusungit nyo na servers!!

They’re closed despite their posted business hours. They’re supposed to be open until 5pm, but several times I e come by well before 5pm and they’re already closed.

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.

I went to this restaurant almost every day, today I have got stomach pains and need to go to rest room, I asked them to use the room and been told by one of lady with the glasses name Maria that I can not use it.

Super disappointed in how I was treated here. My husband and I were craving turons/banana egg rolls. Upon walking in, the two women working there looked at us up and down (I’m assuming to see if we were Filipino, which we’re not). I waited behind someone else that just bought something. When she finished, I walked up and asked if there were any turon/banana egg rolls left. The woman at the counter said that there’s no more, quietly, so I said “huh?” And she said “no more” and looked away. I asked her if there would be more tomorrow and she said “don’t know.” Again, she said it quietly and looked away. So I wanted to make sure I heard her right, because we wanted to come back tomorrow to buy some and I was hoping to find out the time they would have them. So I said “you don’t know?” And she said “don’t know.” There was no one else waiting in line, so they weren’t even busy at the time or anything…Needless to say, we will never return and will not ever recommend this place ever again. We bought 50 turons for a party just last week, too. So bummed that we supported them with this type of service we received today…And for anyone else that is looking for turon, we were so excited to find that Gabrielle’s Food Market across the street also sells them and they’re just as good, with much better service.

This hot spot never fails to deliver delicious Filipino delicacies. You'll find many desserts to satisfy your sweet tooth. My personal favorites are palabok, turon, kare kare, ube pandesal, and kalamay. Remember to grab a ticket number once inside. Finding parking can be an issue during popular times but the walk is worth it.

I love many things here like fried bananas ( but recently the turons were soggy and not completely cooked, pls note ) and coconut buns ( the best). Will support this business more but pls make sure your turons are well cooked yo keep the crunch
