Amazing food and my first time to try them out. And I tried the green color of dessert was bomb too and the orange drink so good. The staff is so good and fun to talk to and very helpful to explain us the main dishes thank you read more

Not sure if I came on a bad day or what but I came for sisig and it was pretty fatty with too much pieces of fat versus meat content. Portion size was generous but I wasn't able to finish. The next day I tried to heat it up to eat it, everything was stuck together and wouldn't even break apart to bite size pieces so I wasnt able to eat. It was pretty much glued together by the fat. The lechon kawali was good though. read more

This is a fairly small shop compared to other turo turo restaurants. They have a great selection of items that are very flavorful. Friendly staff and always a great deal. We will be back for more snacks! read more

I love chicken adobo. Manila Good-Ha makes a solid, standard offering of chicken adobo. I also tried siopao for the first time. I had a chicken one. It was good, particularly with the sauce added. However, I still prefer the classic Chinese pork bao. read more

I was craving for a Filipino Breakfast and found this place. I'm glad that I did. They were opened early and had a great selection to choose from. I ordered the Bangsilog and it definitely satisfied me. They prepared it fast and were reasonably priced for the portion that I received. I'm definitely going back to try more of what they have to offer! read more

Moved to the area and found this Local Carinderia. Great for variety and selection as I didn't expect to find meat filled Tortang Talong and saw Corned Beef and Kare Kare all mixed in the delicious looking trays. All looked fresh considering i came early morning. The Guys serving were super friendly and prices were fair as i have compared to other places in the area. Most importantly i was satisfied with the taste (original and nothing fusion or fancy) a full stomach with the price i paid. Thats important. Thanks to this place and I'll be back. read more

I've visited twice in the last month as I've been craving Chinese roast pork and Filipino lechon kawali which is deep fried pork belly. Sometimes you gotta get your grease fix as it's about that crunchy, crackling skin and juicy meat. Manila Good Ha Sa does a good one with a balanced ratio of fat to meat which makes it juicy and not dry. Ordered a combo with pancit and the noodles were good but a tad bland? Though I'd rather have that than too salty which I've had many times from the food stalls at Filipino markets. Their bbq chicken and pork skewers are perfectly done...not overly sweet, nice char and juicy. Service is super casual and a bit brusque if you're not familiar with items. A lot of yelling from the staff up front to staff in the kitchen while you're standing there. Awkward! The women are ok and no nonsense but the one male worker behind the counter (pony tail) was impatient and better suited to not helping customers. Grrrr... Place is dated and nothing fancy, with steam table items, and plenty of tables for dine-in from take out containers. Serves its purpose and will most likely return if the crave for lechon and chicken/pork skewers strikes again. Note: They offer a variety of pancit using egg noodles (Pancit Canton) or rice sticks (Pancit Guisado) and offer Filipino spaghetti (sweet sauce with hot dogs!) - sister loves it and said their version was good! Plenty of lot parking and located in the same shopping center as Seafood City read more

Manila Good Ha Sa opened recently in New Luk Yuen's vacate space, replacing a partial Filipino eatery with a full time one. Manila's business revolves around offerings of traditional Filipino eats in a premade steam table format whereby patrons order whatever they desire to eat on a "to go" basis or they can eat in. Daily offerings dependent on availability of needed ingredients, thus no set menus. Pics of prospective dishes pictured on wall. Steam table items had no labels nor pricing. Some plastic containers had names & $$ posted. Went for a combo at the suggestion of a Filipino couple. Forgot names of what i usually like to eat. Managed to mumble something about peanut sauce & stew aka Kare Kare. Also went with Lumpia Shanghai. Came with 1/2 plate of semi-fluffy, unfirm white rice. 3.2 stars 16.06 with tax. Seem reasonable... Kare Kare is usually a stew of mixed meat parts: oxtails, goat, pig, beef etc. with veggies in a peanut sauce..seem i got pork & beef meats, little veggie. Sauce seem bland. Got a thimble of pungent fish sauce-like which i used to dip lumpia in instead of mixing it in the kare kare. Lumpia was mostly meat, not the veggies version. Didn't get any vinegar that usually went with it. Take outs: -had a reasonable good experience with help from a Filipino couple. Should have did more research as i usually do. -since Manila doesn't have a "menu", come with ideas of what to order. The usual traditional foods are available. *came to experience Filipino food month (April). read more

This corner spot is a truly a hidden gem in Union City. Found this place by accident. The food is fresh and very flavorful. The servers were very help in selecting the dishes and provided great service. The place has a quaint relax ambiance. Stop by sometime and try the traditional Philippine fare of Beef Caldereta or some Chicken Adobe or calamaris. I recommend :). read more

Food is too unhealthy and there's no veggies anywhere. Super disappointing as I was craving for Filipino food. The dessert (cassava mango I think?) was good though. read more

Manila Good-Ha!!! has moved from Island Pacific to the old New Luk Yuen space in Union City. I happened to pass by when I saw the Grand Re-Opening -- it had been a year since they closed and moved from their old location. I decided to drop in. The food was laid out cafeteria style in steam trays. You select what you want and pay upfront. I got a combo plus a side of Lechon. After paying, I got some swag -- a free bag. I decided to dine in. There were plenty of seats, and the interior had been renovated and repainted. The food was good as was the service. I shall come back to sample more of their food items. read more

I have been anticipating this re-opening for so long now! Manila Good-Ha moved from the old spot inside Island Pacific to the old New Luk Yuen Restaurant by Bank of America. I was sad to see NLY was no longer but excited for the re-opening. I used to go to the old spot back in the day so I am familiar with the taste. I saw the cook is still the same person so I don't anticipate much difference in the flavor. The space is definitely bigger and brighter than the old place. One thing I noticed was the floor was a bit dirty from the rain and fallen leaves. I didn't really get to take a good look on what they had or the prices, a couple of people were in line so I was a bit rushed by the staff. I picked a combo plate with garlic rice, sisig and diniguan and a side of okoy. I think everything was about $23. The dinuguan was so good! It was definitely my favorite in my plate. Tasted close to what I used to get in the Philippines. I love my dinuguan in the more sour side so this was perfect to me. Sisig was good, close to Kapampangan style so I appreciate it. The garlic rice was okay and okoy was meh, tofu instead of shrimp on it so I wasn't a fan. Overall I did enjoy my food, service was too fast, and the place is convenient! read more

I recently had a disappointing experience with an order I placed through DoorDash. I ordered enough food for three people since we were all feeling unwell, but when it arrived, three items were missing. This left us with just enough for one person, which was particularly frustrating given our circumstances. To make matters worse, there was no communication from the restaurant or the driver regarding the missing items or any updates about stock availability. It felt like the restaurant sent out the order without considering their customers' needs. Overall, I was left feeling irritated and dissatisfied with how this situation was handled. Effective communication is vital, especially when customers depend on restaurants for support. I hope they can improve their service in the future. I want to clarify that this isn't the driver's fault. I'm unsure how the process works for them, but I would have noticed that the food bag seemed a bit small if I were in their position. Anyway, I hope Manila Good Ha Sa takes better care of their customers moving forward. Thank you! read more

Manila Good Ha Sa - DoorDash Order - Filipino Near Me - Union City, California

I've been in several times even going back to their older spot by Island Pacific which was real divey. It was so divey then that I just couldn't spark up a review and maybe entice someone to go and try it. Now that they are in a newer spot which is much cleaner, I feel better about maybe getting others to try. Except that most times when I come here, the food is straight mid and never good/great. They are a pick and point steam table type of joint, so things are ready and super-fast. I guess my experiences here can be summed up as more for convenience than say pleasure. I can get a 2 item combo with rice for about $12 bucks, and it is usually 2 meals for me. Things tried: Pork Adobo (2.5*) Big hunks of pork but super big fibers in the protein, so not really that tender. Didn't care for the tang/soy ratio also, maybe even a tad sweet, which really isn't my jam. But Filipinos are pretty particular when it comes to this dish as almost every family will make it a tad different. And this wasn't it for me. Kare Kare (4*) One time I had it was really good and another time more meh, so not sure what the standard is here. First off it is more of country/peasant version as the protein fillings are big chunks of beef stew meat with fat/connective tissue attached, so when stewed long enough turns soft and gelatinous like tendon. And there's also tripe pieces that are nice, which is why I think you have to be from this culture or like culture to like their version. I just don't think one with American taste would get it. More premium versions uses oxtails or brisket so more familiar meats. That is not the version here. Decent peanut flavor though, though I always want more. Mungo (4*) This is their mung bean stew with chunks of pork, maybe dried shrimps and spinach leaves. Totally has split pea soup vibes, just done with another culture's flair. Not great but serviceable. Pork Binagooan (3*) Big chunks of pork again. Looked the part but the sauce didn't have enough punch for me. I guess I like a more prominent garlic and shrimp paste flavor and this was too muted for me. Chop Suey (2*) I got this once cuz this is a vegetable dish mostly of chopped veggies and just a little meat, and I was compelled to balance my combo plate with something more vegetative. The veggie part was decent but there were chunks of chicken in there that weren't good at all. I actually think that they shouldn't put any meat in this as it would be just fine. That chicken addition actually ruined it for me. Fish Paksiw (1*) Got this once as to try a fish dish and was sorely disappointed. First the broth was way too sour from vinegar. Then the actual fish (milkfish on the bone), which is actually legit, but this tasted off, like it was old or improperly frozen. I took one bite and had to spit it out. That says a lot. Lechon Kawali (2*) aka deep fried pork belly. I think because this is sitting out ready to go, that if affected my try. It was very dry and not as seasoned as it is normally. Maybe if you order a la carte, it may be a fresher batch, but for my combo, I wasn't digging it. Turon (4*) Fried egg roll with tropical bananas inside. Pretty decent rendition as there is also a glaze on the outside. These are by the register and I would try and get at least one for dessert. So definitely a swing and a miss for me. Just not the kind of Filipino food I grew up with. Not saying it is the same for everyone as they do seem to get a nice flow of regs in there. Just didn't do it for me, and I ain't mad at that cuz you simply cannot win em all. read more

This place is just ok. My wife mainly wanted to come here and try their chicharron bulaklak (deep fried pig intestines). Yes, these were good and freshly fried. I highly recommend ordering a side of white rice with these to balance the taste. I did not enjoy the shrimp ukoy which is like a fried shkrimp fritter with carrots, potato, etc. This was stale and overly saturated with heavy oil. I just took a little bite of it and it was hard and not good tasting. Their sisig seemed to be popular so I tried it and I was also disappointed. The sisig here is way too soaked in oil and sauce. It's not cripsy whatsoever and the sisig meat is also a bit stale tasting. The display of foods is clean looking and full of vibrant color which is a good thing. The restaurant itself is fairly small with limited amount of seating. There's barely any ventilation due to the cooking and stuffiness inside. I like that it's a family ran restaurant with each family member playing their part. They charge a percentage for using debit/credit which I get but it was pretty high from what I've seen. I felt like I was dining in the P.I. when I was here. The food isn't a hit here to me but maybe to others, it's their type! read more

Probably one of my favorite to go Filipino place right now. Everyday they have different items on the menu on a daily basis but a few key ones that rarely change. If you have doordash you can usually look at the app and it's always up to date with the daily menu. The easiest thing to order would either be a combo 1 or 2. This includes either rice or bihon/miki bihon, whichever they have during that day. With combo 1 this comes with one entree, combo 2 comes with 2. The size of the entree is always going to be a small container; I would estimate roughly 8-12oz. Sounds small but it's more than enough. Another way of ordering would be as an ala carte. Each of the entrees can be purchased as small, medium, large which are usually placed in the soup containers. The noodles however is just split between small and large. Trust me, the small is massive as it is. They usually have spaghetti, bihon, adobo pork/squid, beef or goat Caldereta, sisig, some variation of sinigang or nilaga soup and of course the lechon kawali. Personally I try to avoid the lechon because it is extremely greasy and can be tough at most times. My go to would always be the beef caldereta and the miki bihon whenever they're available. read more

Generous portions of Filipino food, but the food was definitely take out quality. Some of the items we got were the sisig, beef stew, a veggie fritter, and pancit. Everything had decent flavor but was really greasy. My fave was the sisig, but it didn't have any crunch to it. Overall, the food was alright. read more

Best sisig and ginataang bilo-bilo in town. Plus, the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

The food is good here!!! If they ever have the sisig get it. I highly recommend and staff is very friendly.

Manila Good Ha Sa - Spam and Eggs and Garlic Rice! - Filipino Near Me - Union City, California

They have variety of Filipino food. When I'm too lazy to cook or if I'm craving for something I just come by the store . I like their fresh lumpia, lumpia Shanghai and pancit. . The service varies if they're busy or not. Usually there's one to two people working to help but it all depends . Their new place was way bigger than their old location. It has more seatings and more comfortable to sit and eat. read more

Filipino food is one of my favorite. Therefore, writing this review is extremely disappointing and hard for me. I have been excited to know that Manila Good-Ha has opened up in their new location. Highlights from my visit this morning. Food: Subpar, the fish this morning after about opening was very very dry. (Because of the way it's cooked, it's not supposed to be moist, however this was just too dry and not satisfying) I also ordered the Longanisa breakfast combo. The person taking the order asked if I wanted the eggs with the combo. I asked if he could make it over easy, he replied "we can make it however you want, over easy, over the rainbow". I initially enjoyed his light humor. However, when the order came. Eggs were over hard. I also ordered an additional side of longanisa.. and he missed that too. When I called to tell him about how he charged me for eggs that he claimed could be cooked the way we wanted he replied: " Oh i guess i didn't tell them. My bad" He was extremely unprofessional, did not apologize for his mishap, nor offered a refund, and truthfully, listening to his interaction with customers was very off putting. When a door dasher came to pick up the order which was not ready, he replied with "we're still cooking it. so sit down and RELAX". Completely unnecessary, the individual just presented the order pick up name. Lastly, the food was barely warm. Perhaps because the front door to the store was open and it's been very cold in the Bay as of the last weeks. Leaving it extremely uncomfortable for anyone trying to simply enjoy a meal inside. I will not be coming back for a multitude of reasons: The food was not prepared the way I ordered, the person did not listen and missed a side item. Taste was not great.. and coupled with horrible service just made it a done deal for me. 37$ for unprofessionalism the items pictured (missing side of corn beef) Positive note: At least the rice was good and he remembered the utensils napkins and vinegar. read more

This place took a while to open but were glad it finally did. It's the same food joint located at the old Island Pacific. But relocated to the place vacated by Luk Yuen. You'll know that the place was renovated as the walls have new paintings and several dining tables and chairs. The place has the same setup as the old one. It has a selection of Filipino food and you can order by the size (containers) and depending on what you order, it has a specific price. They also have catering orders and there's so many selection of Filipino items. We saw a few people that we recognized from their old place and we're glad that we saw some familiar faces. The to-go service is very quick. There are so many items that we can't decide very quickly. We ended up getting an order of crispy pata. When we got home, the crispy pata was very crunchy and huge. We will definitely come back and try our favorite Filipino food. read more

Came Wednesday morning. Tons of authentic, popular Filipino food. Looks like they recently made them too.

Went in to get a few things and was happy to see that they have a much bigger dining room and brighter space compared to their old location at Island Pacific. I bought a whole Daing na Bangus, medium container of Kare-Kare, and a small container of Biko. The Daing na Bangus was very good. Not too vinegary and was still crispy when I got home. The Kare-Kare was good too, though it doesn't have the traditional oxtail. They used the more meaty stew cuts and tripe in the Kare-Kare. Tasted good and wasn't too fatty since they didn't use oxtail. The Biko wasn't too sweet. It wasn't that busy when I went around 4, and they just opened up in this new space, so I don't know if people know that they've reopened. Very efficient service. Would definitely return for their other dishes. read more

$5.79 for moldy ass puto. banana con yelo with rotten banana that's flavorless. Veggies on the pancit malabon were gross. I feel so traumatized. I'm scared to open the embotido. service was not bad. But it seems like they sell old food and they never make fresh food at this place. Never again. Worst $40 I spent on. The place also smells like old food. read more

Upsetting I spent $60 for bland food. Arroz caldo was tasteless (both chicken and tripe). Nilaga was disappointing (also bland and meat was hard/old), the calderetta was ok. I'll give them a chance again for the silogs. For the price- their neighbors @ Kabayan are better quality/taste/service. I've been frequenting that location for years. read more

I don't like giving 1 star reviews but don't order through DoorDash, they'll give you expired, old food.

I forgot how good your pancit bihon is. Haven't ordered from you since you moved. Still good prices. Will order again.

First time to go to goodha since they moved to this new location... I ordered combo - the only thing good was the mikibihon pansit. The ulam not so good. Turon too oily The lady working there (stout short with pusod) was soooo mean. I told her "ang sungit ninyo"! Will NOT be going back. Not worth the 20 minute drive. read more

All their food are dry. I ordered rice porridge and they warmed it in a microwave. It is not fresh at all.

Good place for breakfast with big portions. Very welcoming staff and food is delicious. The serve the classics Tocilog/bangsilog/Longsilog/ Tapsilog and in the morning they already have a few selections of main dishes like menudo, afritada o lechon kawali. read more

This place is way too sweet. I ordered the "fresh" coconut juice. What I got was a coconut drink with a ridiculous amount of sugar in it. It tastes 3 times as sugary as any soda does. You could get the canned coconut juice and have WAY less sugar in that and it would taste more fresh. Even the food had so much sugar. I know it's traditional to use sugar in Filipino cooking, but they go overboard here. I've been eating Filipino food since I was a kid and I've never had anything so sweet. Food doesn't taste very good, drinks aren't fresh, and it seems they try to mask it by loading it with buckets of sugar. Have I said sugar enough times in this review? Probably not enough times considering how much they use. read more

Horrible service. I tried to give this place a 2nd chance. I've gone once last month while I was doing something in this same plaza, to not be assisted, nor acknowledged. 2nd time I tried again with my friend after a pedicure in the same plaza 2 days ago. The customers were bragging to us that this is their spot. As soon as we were introduced to this female who's first assisted him, she says, right away, I'm taking my lunch. Didn't even say hi, just grabbed a bowl and started helping herself. The other person was no where any better, he acknowledged us by saying he's busy. We patiently waited 10 minutes smiling and looked at the food trays, before we left. The ambiance was nothing to brag about. My friend wasn't pleased either. So that's it for us, they were much nicer at their other spot inside Island Pacific. I've never tried their food, so who knows, it's possibly better than their service. Good luck. read more
