As a fellow Filipino I Tried Manila Bay and loved it. I had pancit, lumpia, sinigang, and halo-halo, and everything was authentic and flavorful. The food came out quick, the staff were super friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made it easy to relax. Definitely feels like real Filipino home cooking—I’ll be back for sure.

First time here and the food was delicious, but I knocked off some stars due to the service. We had ordered a crispy pata and a few other items to snack on while the pata was being made. Well after finishing our food, the crispy pata still hasn’t been brought out to us, so we end up waiting for over an hour until I asked the cashier what was up with our order and what was taking so long. Turns out they forgot about us. Wouldn’t come back again since I don’t want to take a chance on waiting such a long time.

I'll give this place 4 stars even though my most recent experience wasn't the best because my first visit was so memorable...I love how different the cuisine tastes and the staff is really nice but this most experience I inquired about something on the menu with the staff and he told me one thing but when I got my food it was something completely different and the rice seemed to be a bit old and the meat was like warm but the lumpia were delicious will be back but will be sure to research the dishes first before ordering

We ordered a large bowl of pork sinigang (soup of the day, ~$14), only to receive 3 pieces of meat.. And this is typically served with at least 6 to 8 pieces. But no, it was mostly liquid. I expect more for that price.

Terrible experience. Went to celebrate a birthday and ordered a $75 platter. Asked for NO mango, specified it was due to an allergy. Heard them holler back to the kitchen “no mango”. Waited literally an hour and it came out covered in chopped mango, everything covered in mango juice. Asked for a refund and was met with attitude. Got the $75 back and they kept the tip! Really disappointed.

My wife and I stopped in on the way back from a long journey from Sturgis rally back to FL. They gave great conversation, catered to us like family and certainly fed us like family too! The inside is well organized and clean. Staff is very friendly and the food is AMAZING! It makes me wish we lived nearby, but now we know our forever pit-stop for the future! My Filipino wife vouches for pure authentic food too, with real ingredients used there. This huge and beautiful tray had many things on it, all of it was absolutely perfect. 10 stars to you if I could!

The food we ordered tasted really good! Pancit Bihon, Tucino, and some lumpia. The down side was the dine in experience. They may not have AC working and so it was really hot with one ceiling fan on and a floor fan... If they were going for the Filipino experience of hot as I the Philippines, they may have got it 😀. Service was also really non-existent, the kid working the front was mostly on his phone and listening to headphones... When we got there, there was virtually no open seat as several tables were dirty, and haven't been bussed, and it didn't seem that busy. Anyways, another knock is that the place just seemed dirty. The bathroom needed attention and the floors and hallways just seemed like it's not been cleaned in a while. I wonder if this place would pass inspection.... And the last straw after sweating out through our meal was asking ordering Halo Halo, in which they had no ice for 😭😭😭 Try at your own risk. Good food, terrible service and atmosphere, hopefully it gets better.
They were always good especially when the mom was there. I havent been there in a while. So, it was my bday and Went to eat buffet and invited my friends bragging that their food is great but in dismay, the food served were only few and we were like eating left overs. We had to tell them to refill and the lady was rude telling me “I know I know I see that” food was terrible like a dog food. I miss Norma. Customer seevice is 0 star and food is 1 star. Not worth of my money. Sorry. I was a customer since then but not now.

I enjoy eating here with my family

I decided to try their fried chicken based off of a previous review. I am glad I did because my family was impressed! The chicken was fried crispy outside, nice and juicy inside, and had very good flavor. We will try some of the other items next time. Peace & Prosperity!
Update: My first time ever giving an update!!!! I decided to try Manila Bay again. Did not realize it is a Filipino Restaurant. I was blown away by their Pompano Fish platter. Flavors impactful and certainly something to be remembered!!! Check out the photo!!!!!!!!!
