The breads were pillow soft. Highly recommend the coconut one

Terrible service. Everything I ordered was meh. Too much bread and the most minute amount of red bean for the anpan as well as the ube rolls. Ensemada was okay. Since we are all human, I've gone back a few times because we can all have bad days, right? Well, sad to say no positive changes. Bad service, meh food. Also, the credit card machine always seems to be broken - they should just put a sign that says 'accepts cash only' on the door instead of having different excuses. This was the last straw. Food not good, bad service and no CCs accepted. I won't be back. Waste of time waiting and my hard earned money.

Come on S.

Their fresh produce were reasonably priced. That's all I bought from here. Their head cabbage were some of the the tiniest I have ever seen before but were cheap.

Several choices of delicious, fluffy bread, as well as butter mochi, and rice cake! Would recommend their Ube Hawaiian Rolls. Super cheap for the quality and taste.Surprised how few reviews this place has. I also saw them at the Maku'u Farmer's Market and I believe they attend other markets.Would consider this a hidden gem and highly recommend visiting!

The lady was super nice and helpful, and, most importantly, THEY HAVE CHINESE PRETZELS/ROSETTES!!! Y'all would not BELIEVE the cravings I've been having for those, and they were so cheap too!! $2.50 per bag, and ~7-8 pretzels per ziplock. Perfect way to start off my Chinese New Year :) I haven't had any since 2019 Obon, so this was a particularly nice treat. Nice and crisp and so ono~! They're a bit bigger than I'm used to, but I ain't complaining lol Super cheap, really good, and nice service! The produce was also looking really nice- an overlooked hole in the wall I'm gonna keep coming back to.

Allot of comfort foods, fruits, vegetables, and ethnic foods. Definitely recommend people go.

It has a sweet smell when you first enter the store . It is filled with sweet Filipino bread and other delights.

prejudice is alive and well at this establishment. the attendant deliberately spoke in filipino to only help the customers that could understand the language. we were all patiently waiting in an orderly line along the glass display case, she comes out for the back, looks past us and starts taking to the guy behind us. twice the guy behind us tells her we are next, twice we tell her our order, and twice she ignores us. the third time, the guy behind us gives up and allows her to help him. over and over we spoke to her, only to have her help the next person. she only helped us after we repeatedly told her that we are next in line to be helped. she spoke English to us the entire time that she helped us, so she does know the English language. very disappointed that someone would be so disrespectful to an elderly man and his family just because we're not filipino.

Yeeey

Horrible food

Pros - Delicious sweet potato bun (the one with the slits in then) Good varieties of vegetables and some varieties of fruits Alot of seasonings for cooking Affordable prices Cons - Baked items sells out fast Parking is miserable, getting out of parking lot is difficult during lunch hours and after work hours

This is the place to go for fresh, authentic Filipino baked desserts! I always buy sweet bread, ensemada, and pan de sal. Make it a regular stop!
