I don't really write negative reviews, so I gave it some time to process to see if it was just my…read moreopinion at the time. It's been about a month and a half since it's passed, so here's my honest take of the restaurant part of this store. We visited Niagara Falls for three days and as was the highlight of our 2.5 week vacation in eastern Canada. My family and I normally eat at a Filipino food place at least once to vibe how the Filipino food and community is at an area. Lo and behold, J&B Filipino/Asian Store was only a 10 minute walk from our hotel, which is a 20 minute walk from the actual falls, or a 5 minute drive. Nice! The first time we went there, we checked out the grocery store section part of the store, but we didn't really need any Filipino snacks since we are already familiar with it and have them at home in Hawai'i. The next day, we tried to eat at the restaurant, but we were abruptly told that the restaurant was closed. The man wasn't the smiley, friendly type and wasn't Filipino himself, so we felt a bit bad, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt because everyone has bad days. The very next day, the restaurant was actually open this time, so we went to try it out. We were actually given menus at our seat, but told us to order up at the cashier (which is weird, pick either service or turo-turo style lol). It was a relatively long wait, about 20-25 minutes, but good food takes a while to make. I wish I could say it was good, but it wasn't that. First of all, what kind of Bicol Express has no gata and all bagoong? I was fully expecting Bicol Express, even confirmed it twice upon ordering and receiving, but was vastly disappointed at what I ate, which is far too salty for my taste. I left unsatisfied with my meal. I didn't want to ruin the vibe with my family, so I didn't mention anything until my mom mentioned that her bangus (milkfish) was stale. I tasted it myself, it was! No wonder my sister's husband from Canada who grew up in Ontario hated fish. Fish from Ontario, Canada is tasteless/stale due to being imported (unlike fresh in Hawai'ior the Philippines)!!! Next, my normally quiet brother is usually content with everything, but his sisig was tasteless! Is there even a Filipino working in the back, or is the Filipino food in Canada not tasty at all (not the case since we had better Filipino food in Montreal in future days)? Finally, the vibe of the sole employee at the time speaks of no customer service or Pinoy (or even Canadian) hospitality at all. He was quite blunt, but it could be his personality. He also blasted Cuban music in the store, which I'm not against, but the environment didn't feel authentically Filipino to me and felt disingenuine. No wonder this place wasn't visited at all, which is a disappointment since this place has good reviews from a year ago. It's possible that the owners have changed and the quality went downhill. I don't think I'll ever recommend this restaurant to anyone I know, and we've learned to avoid this place the next time we visit Niagara Falls. Two stars is still a bit generous and I don't want to badmouth a restaurant completely over one visit, but it's my lowest rating out of any establishment at the time of this post.

The sriracha chicken and the beef pad see ew were also extremely good. We enjoyed every bite of everything we had. Not pictured: mango sticky rice dessert which had a very ripe and juicy mango served with warm and perfectly sweet rice. We are locals and they offer a punch card, every $15 spent is a punch and you work toward $10 off the bill. Nice that a local business does this! We are already planning our next date night here.

We split into two tables of 7 and our server, a kind and pleasant young woman, handled us so professionally!

Oftentimes, she would be juggling multiple plates but never failed to do so with a nice smile on her face. My table ordered two mango salads to share, with were served with complimentary shrimp chips. The salads were a decent portion, with lots of crunchy cashews and sweet apples and mangoes. We then ordered a few mains family-style - a green / emerald chicken curry (with no peanuts), a peanut-free chef's pad thai, a red curry, a pad see ew, and a fried rice. Everything was delicious but my personal favourites were the pad see ew (so flavourful and with good wok hei) and the emerald curry (their spiciest curry - which did pack a slight punch). The pad thai was good too, but good pad thai isn't that rare now. Finally, we ended with three mango sticky rices. The mango to rice ratio was amazing, with thick and plump mango slices on coconut-y, creamy rice. What an amazing meal! Would highly recommend and definitely come again.

The wonton soup was excellent, and the dessert of fried bananas was a perfect ending to the meal. Lots of vegetarian options, and I was asked if I had any allergies as I ordered.

We ordered quite a bit of meat (some beef tendon, sliced beef, sliced pork, salmon, and pork and shrimp dumplings) and it was all fresh and delicious. Veg included bok choy, cabbage, enoki mushrooms, and lots more, plus plenty of noodle varieties. They have a great selection here and there's surely something for everyone.

They asked what level of spice we wanted but in saying mild to medium we may have lost out on flavor. Table for 4. We started with soups, Tom Yum was salty and lacking lemongrass. Edible but you'd be hard pressed to guess that it was Tom Yum. The coconut Tom Kha soup was better. We shared an eggplant dish, noodles (pad see ew) and red vegetable curry along with rice. Everyone seemed to enjoy the eggplant but mixed reviews on the pad see ew and curry vegetable. Mostly it was just that the dishes were uninspiring and bland. The decor was somewhat drab, clean but lacking any charm. Prices were a touch on the high side but nothing shocking. We went here for a late lunch after a Shaw festival show and were starving and basically chose the first restaurant we came across. We definitely regretted our choice and should have kept going to find a place with better food and ambiance.

I got my choice of two sauces. One was a garlic soy sauce and the other was a sweet and savory which had a little bit of heat to it. It.

It's really nice when people include you in their little celebrations even if they didn't have to. The chicken itself was really tasty and very moist. It wasn't all that crunchy, because of the sauce that was put on, but it was still very flavorful nonetheless Bottom line? I would absolutely come back to this restaurant again, to try some of their regular bone-in chicken. You would do yourself a favor and check them out.
