Fv Foods

Sunday. excited to eat BBQ in this branch but was dismayed when the BBQ is cold and hard, as if it was like a yesterday once more thing. Are you making customers like idiots? Same thing in Lawernce branch, the dinakdakan I bought was cold and amoy panis. Please watch out what you are preparing before someone gets sick and you get into trouble. Food in Sampaguita of Jollytops is far more better. In Sampaguita it will be served freshly cooked.
I am craving for Pinoy foods… FV wake up, tend to the complaints of your patrons or else no ones gonna eat there. Just a frank and friendly reminder. Walang personalan.

I am a frequent customer because I enjoy the food, and find many of my Filipino groceries here, but find that the cashier is very unwelcoming and rude.

I’m giving this store a 2 star solely because of their food and its accessibility.
First off, I ordered sago’t gulaman and pork skewers.
The sago’t gulaman was fine for the price of 5 bucks but it was a tad sweet and for those who doesn’t like sweet stuff this isn’t for you.
The pork skewers on the other hand is so dry and so small for a 2.50 price per skewer. I believe that they had cooked it earlier and let it stay under the heating lamp for the whole day.
but, the most disappointing part is their customer service. The counter servers mostly talked to each other and never pays attention to incoming customers, you literally have to yell so they notice you. The saddened part is the person on cash which was by far the rudest person I have ever met. When I asked if they had turon (fried wrapped banana) she looked at me annoyingly and said «if there’s nothing on display, then we don’t have it».
Lastly, some of the food were good, their pancit, palabok, menudo but some of it were just swimming in oil, such as the dinuguan and adobo.

This review is based on baked goods/​sweets carried under FV foods production and service.
After a few visits to this location, it really had me irking at the poor quality of baked goods and traditional filipino sweets served here. 2 years of visitation, actually… Many chances to redeem itself through improvements and maybe even a warm greeting to familiar faces/​loyal customers?
Nada… I felt aggravated to rate this place after every visit as adding delay is the antidote to anger… This one had it coming.
We found mold on our special platter of sweets the day after it was picked up (monthssss ago tho) by my brother-​in-​law and it was a disheartening sight to see it trashed on Christmas Day. Booooo, it was plated so pretty too.
The service ?? Your presence is validated by a shoulder shrug if you’re lucky, or left to look at the heated dishes and wait patiently as you try to make eye contact with the seemingly less interested server behind the counter. Take my advice, DO NOT ASK FOR PRICING! You will be hissed at for the audacity on imposing such inquiry. Bad days shouldn’t turn into bad weeks.
This location also offers buffet style dining for a decent price aside from cafeteria style serving of hot dishes. But since filipino cuisine is so heavily sauced or mostly fried plus lacking any fresh veggies or salad to go with a protein heavy meal to balance out the fat content, it fails to lure in customers of the Toronto public. Taboo it seems for some. A la carte is still the way to go and sadly, I recommend hitting another filipino resto down the street.
This place does not represent the authenticity of filipino hospitality and mediocre food served stale and lacking the proper execution most of our cooks back home possess.

First time visiting this franchise location as part of the first annual Taste of Manila festival at Bathurst/​Wilson. Festival crowds lining up for food at the outdoor booths were insane, as they were inside FV! The line started outside the door, snaked all the way around the grocery aisles on the right hand side and finally allowing patrons to order as they passed the hot tables, checking out while still hanging right. We ordered some items to go… two small palabok, two prepackaged pastries, two fried bananas and two halo halo. Service was super fast and organized, especially given the crazy festival crowd! Fried banana was so crispy still, even after our drive home. The halo halo was just delicious as it should be, loaded with the usual variety and at a good portion size. Pricing was very reasonable too.
FV has a nice spread for dine-​in (a few booths and tables available, looks like they offer a $ 9.99 buffet option as well) take-​out or takeaway for potlucks, home meals or parties. Our family loves the leche flan and puto for special family holiday events. Definitely recommended for homesick Filipinos and all those who appreciate Filipino cuisine. Great job!

Incredibly slow service, and even though the girl serving me was in training, her manager was too busy giving her dirty looks and making her feel stupid rather than helping her out. Prices are great, but the toppings in my noodles (palabok) were almost non-​existent.
The cashier rolled her eyes at me, no thank you or the warm greeting or farewell that Filipinos are supposedly known for. It’s an embarassment and a poor reflection on the Filipino community. If you’re in the industry of serving customers, you have a long way to go guys.
If you want decently priced average food and don’t care to be treated like crap, go here.
