Service & communication were great, but the food was the BEST. I ordered a party tray of pancit, fried chicken, and kare-kare for my sonās first birthday. Let me tell you, it was a hit. Everyone really enjoyed the food. The dish that everyone complimented most was the kare-kare, saying that āThis is the best kare-kare Iāve ever had!ā Unfortunately, I donāt have any pictures because everyone ate it all. Lol. But I will definitely be ordering here again for my next event (and hopefully get pictures then).

I like the pick all you can. Clean store, the crews are nice and very respectful. The new management R&B are amazing. The sapin sapin is very delicious and the halo-halo, you must try it.

Great food and service. I get my uber eats orders from Mama Lu since Covid. And they are my home away from home, always makes me feel like at home. She is the best Mama Lu, for Filipino food in Durham Region.

My husband and I stumbled upon this place one day while browsing the plaza. We ate big time goodies always looking for something new to try. I have to say we have not tried the food dishes but the in house made desserts and drinks. They are spectacular. Always fresh and delicious. The service and kindness of the staff is superb and hard to find these days. If you were thinking of stopping by do it!! You will not regret it and I promise you will find something you will enjoy. Support local and those bringing international food options to the area :)

The Bicol Express and Beef Pares Mami were both delicious. Food made from the heart of a true warm Filipino culture. Thanks MAMALU for a great food experience.

My partner and I were craving some si-logs for Saturday brunch. I find it terrible that people are super critical to reduce ratings based on opening times & less than expected food portions. The portions were fine imo. We ordered some silogs, a side of bicol express & some pork bbq - everything was great! They also have a nice selection of baked goods and have a partnership with the cheesecake factory (grabbed some to go w/ ube baked goods. Iām not going to rob them of a star because itās not Michelin quality. The customer service was great and they seem like very nice people-especially the sweet older lady who I assume is Mamalu. We honestly need more Filipino food in general and for a resto outside of the city here in Ajax, this is a nice little spot.

The serving is very small for the price you pay. There are options: to order the food already cooked or order to cook. I ordered order to cook but seemed like the foods were reheated. Not coming back there.

The bread cheese bulilit and ube bulilit are to come back for!! Tastes like the ones you can buy from local bakeriesm in the Philippines (Kalihim bread), but softer. Price was 12 pcs for $6 or $7 I believe? They also have pandesal but we didnāt get to try that since we dropped by at night

Go to Estacion instead. Price at Mamalu's is VERY EXPENSIVE. $21 for a large container of meat compared to Estacion at $14 for same large container. Not much selection of food.

We were looking for some Filipino comfort food for my mother-in-law. We stumbled upon this establishment in Ajax. This restaurant has a small hot table and they also make noodle soup called "Lomi".There's a small dining area good for maybe 10 people max. We ordered 2 beef pares noodles (large) $14.99 and one combo meal 2 $12.99 with a choice of 2 meat (pork or chicken), steamed rice and bottled water.Portion wise, the combo meal was a little bit small but understandable for businesses trying to navigate through tough times. We got the bicol Express and another pork dish with shrimp paste. The pork used in these dishes were very fatty so unfortunately, most of the meat was not edible. A little more attention to the meat selection will go a long way for patrons to enjoy their hot table food.The highlight was the beef pares noodles soup. Took some time for them to prepare it, but well worth the wait. The broth was satisfying, and noodles cooked extra soft for my mother-in-law. The beef brisket was tender and seasoned well.Overall, it was a nice first experience at this local restaurant . I will visit again soon when craving some chicken Lomi or beef pares. The owner and staff were very friendly and treated you like family. Well done.
