Talk about a nostalgia plot twist. I came back hoping for the same Filipino sticky rice desserts I…read moreloved as a kid, but my taste buds were left wondering if they remembered the wrong place. The puto was more firm than fluffy, and the sticky rice cakes were on the hard side too. They weren't terrible, just not memorable enough for a return trip. Honestly, the only reason we stopped by was because my daughter was craving them. One thing that hasn't changed? The service!!! The titas were just as unwelcoming and unfriendly as I remember from childhood, so at least they're consistent w that, I guess. Overall, I really wish the desserts had aged as well as my memories.

Filipino Desserts Plus located in National City. Same parking lot as Seafood City, Popeye's, and…read moreStarbucks. If you are looking for you fix of Filipino desserts as well as selective hot food items...Filipino Desserts Plus is your one stop shop!

If you are interested in placing a large order for a party, they only need a 30-minute advance notice!

The bakery is inside Seafood City Supermarket. They have cakes, cheesecakes, breads, cookies and…read moremany other (Filipino) baked goods. I came here especially to get an Ube cake; I wasn't sure which one yet and they had a few different ones. There was an Ube flan cake, an Ube cheesecake and an Ube Yema cake. Not knowing what a Yema cake was, I asked them how it compared to the other 2 cakes and he told me that Yema cake has condensed milk and I was sold! The ube yema cake turned out to be amazing! It was moist, full of ube flavor and definitely not one to keep around if you have weak self-control like I do. Now I want to go back there to try the other Filipino snacks that I didn't get to buy the first time.

All 3 I tried were amazing and my decision way harderrr ! I went with the cebada! an absolute 10/10 !! sooo perfect and refreshing for a hot day ! They will be seeing me again :)

I was browsing for a while until I finally came across these guys on Facebook! I'm so happy they came up on my feed. Booking them was easy, everything that was included was explained to me. It was easy to give them my date and time needed. Day of the event, they arrived at perfect timing when we were cutting the cake. They found the place just fine. The churros were being fried fresh for my hungry guests to consume. Now I've had my fair share of churros and I gotta say, these were the best I've ever had. Hot, fresh and not keto friendly. Worth every calorie. The guys making them told me to try one with a scoop of ice cream and this bomb homemade strawberry sauce they bring. Life changing!!! All the guests at my party said this was the coolest and best thing ever. Honestly, you're not gonna find better than these guys. Churrolicious is amazing and sure to make your event 10x better. Thanks guys!!! Can't wait to book you for future events.

I love rolled ice cream & haven't been to this spot in years!…read more The inside hasn't changed at all, except maybe the addition of the key hole game machine. They have a pretty good selection of flavors. I was really shocked that they have a fruity menu like chamango & watermelon. That would be perfect on a summer day. Strawberry Shortcake: * Strawberry flavor tasted fresh * Love the crunch on top * 9/10 Cereal/Captain Crunch: * One of my favorite bases for ice cream: fruity cereal * Whipped cream tasted kinda funny * Crunch from the cereal on top was perfect * Without whipped cream: 10/10 Service was decent.

I honestly think this is one of the more underrated dessert spots in the South Bay. People tend to…read moreoverlook the fact that it exists. Everyone tends to look for boba but forgets that this joint is here too. It's located on the busy Plaza Blvd. It's in the same strip center as Island Pacific and Titas Kitchen, so depending on what time you go, parking is either good or bad. There is the bigger lot closer to Island Pacific but then you gotta walk a little more to the place. The place itself is decently cleaned. It's a cute little hangout spot with an ok amount of seating. They got games in there too if you hangout with friends. I had no issues with service. There was one girl working at the time and she was hustling making and taking orders. She was friendly and attentive so A+ to her. The dessert was actually really yummy. I had the Halo Halo Ice Cream Rolls and the ube flavor was pretty good. It wasn't overwhelmingly sweet. I liked the little tributes to halo halo (red bean, jelly, wafer). My friend had the banana pudding ice cream rolls and those were really good. I love the banana taste and the nilla wafer was a great addition. I really feel bad that I keep forgetting about this place. They deserve a bit more love and recognition. If I want dessert that isn't boba, I'm definitely going to be paying them a visit more. I also want to try their sugarcane drinks one day so I will be back!

Great place for a boba and snack. I've been going here for years- since 2020. This place is one of…read morethe most consistent boba shops in SD.

They have a huge selection of drinks and desserts, and everything we tried was really good. The boba was perfectly chewy and the flavors were on point--not watered down at all.

Thai tea Smoothie - 3/5 Same thing with the sweetness, it could use a bit more. Tasted watered down after a few sips and needed the bobas sweetness to carry the flavor of the drink. Boba was not fresh, can tell we got the bottom of the barrel since most pieces were hard in the middle but we did come an hour before closing so that can be a reason why. In my opinion its a hit or miss but employees are friendly and they provide quick service, I appreciate that they have a good amount of baristas making drinks.

I got myself a Chocolate Croissant and an Iced Sea Salt Caramel Coffee (Medium Size). I figured the chocolate croissant would be good to take on a walk so that it would become all melty! The sea salted caramel cream coffee on the other hand was lacking that depth and lush you'd get from actual caramel. It tasted like they used a pump syrup instead, very artificial. I wanted more salt in this drink as well. Other than that, it was ok, esp for the price. I'd prob get the original sea salt cream coffee next time. There are a few tables inside (chairs minimal) and some outdoor seating. Lots of space to park.

I think what did it for me is the fact the drinks are either topped off or not. I'm paying over $5 for a large specialty drink (the only size it's offered in) and they can't even top it off? Wth? **the next day I went to another 85 location. I realized the National City store gave me a medium sized drink and it wasn't a large. Large is the only size they sell this drink in. The drink I bought from the other location was noticeably larger and topped off. National City is ripping customers off.**
