Filipino Desserts Plus 2

Love this place when I’m craving a «home cooked» style meal. Everytime I come here for food, I’m never disappointed. I definitely recommend this spot for anyone craving some great tasting Filipino food.

There is a variety of filipino desserts. Cassava cakes, Turon (fried banana lumpia), Ube, Brown Kutsinta, Suman (sweet sticky rice), Mini Pecan tarts and the list goes on. They also sell filipino ice cream. Everything is delicious. Whenever there is a holiday party or event and I have to bring a dish. And i don’t feel like cooking. This is the place to buy desserts to bring. They have party trays. check out their website… www​.fil​ipin​odessert​splus​.com/​h​o​m​e​.html. order a head of time also. they are always busy but worth going to.

this is my go to spot whenever I obligate to bringing dessert to family parties. the prices are reasonable and they have pretty much all you can think of for Filipino desserts and some light food items. I use this place primarily for bulk catering type of needs like trays of lumpia shanghai.

I read in the review now how some people are getting food items that probably expired. My sister and I make it a point to go to Filipino Dessert Plus each time we go to San Diego and they always taste good. We have no problem. We bought ginatan munggo on the day we are heading back to LA. It was like 2pm+ and we immediately put them in refrigerator. I tasted it this morning and it was panis or expired, it taste bitter, funny. I bought two containers of it and very disappointed. The rest of items we bought were fine. As a matter of fact, we went to the store two days in a row as we love eating Filipino dessert.
This never happened in the last 6 years we have been going there. I am so disappointed and it is kind a ways to go back to complain.

My girlfriend’s sister-​in-​law found out I was from San Diego when we first met about a year ago, and she would lament about how she couldn’t find good Filipino desserts or a decent place specializing in them in the Inland Empire. In particular, she was craving suman (sticky rice cooked in coconut milk and wrapped in banana leaves), so I promised her at the next family gathering I would get her some… and as that was this past weekend, it was time to pay up.
Filipino Desserts Plus 2 is located inside Seafood City, and they carry all sorts of sweet desserts, as well as some hot foods and even Magnolia ice cream (halo-​halo flavor, too — though I haven’t tried it yet). If your order is under $ 10, it’s cash only, which my order of suman was ($ 5.50). At least Elise was happy that she got it the next day, and I now know where to go if the need for something sweet from the Philippines strikes… just watch out for that parking lot across from Seafood City, or even park some distance away near Rite Aid, which I normally do.

The main reason I gave a 2 star for this place is because they use too much food coloring in the food and dessert. Yellow food coloring and purple food coloring. Their fresh lumpia and fried lumpia and palabok has yellow food coloring written all over it. So bad for health. Yikes! They use purple food color in so many other things like the ube halaya taste more like purple food coloring and ube flavor — it’s not the real thing. Why doesn’t the owner know that food coloring is bad for health?
If you want the best ube halaya — it’s at Erlinda’s (formerly Aling Conching in National City) — it’s real ube, no purple coloring.

Don’t let the name Filipino ‘Desserts’ Plus 2 fool you. Although they DO have great desserts, they also offer regular food.
This place came to the rescue when I had forgotten to bring food for the company potluck, by taking my last-​minute order of 50 rolls of lumpia on several occasions! Thank you!

The Mira Mesa is the same as the National City location in terms of what they sell. They also sell some desserts that aren’t in the N.C. store.
They are located inside the Seafood City off of Mira Mesa Boulevard.
Their turon is also ver crispy and delicious! Definitely recommend if you live close by in Mira Mesa.

We came here to buy desserts for an upcoming party. Located inside Seafood City, it’s a small area that sells lots of Filipino sweets.
I only come for the Puto. A tray of a dozen is $ 5.50. I can only have about 2 at one time since they are pretty dense. I take mine and nuke them for about 10 seconds and then smother them with butter.
WOW…
They have other sweets available on their racks and a refrigerator section with items such as leche flan. Ice cream is available as well.

Came here for the first time and picked up so many desserts. They are absolutely delicious! I esp love the Pecan tarts. Just the right amount of sweetness and crisp. Other good stuff is their mamon. I also picked up a bunch of rice type desserts. Everything was delicious. And the prices are very reasonable.

While I rely on my mom for homemade Filipino food, she doesn’t really make Filipino desserts, thus I must go in search of them. Whenever we stop at Seafood City we have to stop here. Have to! Yes, they do have a small selection of hot foods, but in my opinion, the desserts are their strength. The turon is really good, as everyone has said, but I really come here for the puto and the ube kalamay. I also love their biko ube and sapin sapin. The sapin sapin is not the best I have ever had, but it is pretty darn good. The desserts are always fresh and you can buy them in a variety of sizes or combinations. One time we were looking around and I wanted a small tray of half puto and half ube kalamay, but we could find one, so the lady behind the counter made us one. And if you have questions about any of the items they are great about answering and telling you what it is. And… the desserts are pretty cheap.

We were headed to a BBQ and had to stop by the grocery store so I randomly Unilocaled to see if there was anything else worth checking out in the plaza and found this hidden gem! It is in the corner of Seafood City. I wouldn’t have even known it was there if I wasn’t looking for it.
We ordered a party platter of turon. I believe it was 30 pieces for $ 12. Such a steal for a delicious, crowd pleasing dessert! We thought we would have tons leftover, but people were practically fighting over the last pieces! The turon was perfectly crispy & sticky on the outside and filled banana and jackfruit. They even tasted good the next day!
We also got the pancit palabok, which was okay. I would pass on the regular items and just come here for dessert. The halo halo was also just okay. It satisfied my halo halo craving but I’ve definitely had better halo halo elsewhere.
When I’m in the area, I would come back here again! Your money can be stretched far here because everything is super affordable. Just grab whatever looks good to you! Don’t miss out on the turon though… it is so addicting!

Filipino Desserts to my go to location for delightfully delectable Filipino treats. It’s definitely the best part of Seafood City.
They offer reasonably priced desserts, neatly packaged in a variety of sizes.
In my most humble opinion, I think FD offers the absolute best turon in town. And $ 0.40 each is a steal! Mmm, crispy, perfectly caramelized goodness. My mouth is watering simply at the thought of it!
And I don’t know how they make their suman, but they must lace it with crack or something because my family in LA is absolutely addicted to it. Large family party coming up? You can absolutely bet that I’ll be sent on a mission to procure several packages of that suman goodness.
They get bonus points for selling individual pieces of vegetable lumpia. Most places require you to buy large quantities of it.
Call ahead if you need to place a large order. Otherwise, if it’s for turon, I can’t guarantee that I’ll leave any behind for you!
In all honestly, it’s probably not better than anything I (ahem my family) can make at home, but who wants to spend time cooking? I want to eat!

This place has tons of Filipino deserts. The also have regular pinoy food like pancit malabon and fresh vegetable lumpia.
But there best known for there turon (a deep fried banana with jackfruit and sugar inside an eggroll wrapper) which is the best I’ve come across so far. It has a nice crunch and is sweet in every bite! And you can’t eat just one because there so addicting. Anyways if your in Sea Food City this place is a must to stop by for a snack! Oops meant to give it 4 Stars!

My favorite part of coming into Seafood City.
In the corner of the store is an array of delectable Filipino goodies!
I love the different size packages.
Being more a sampler, I do like the combo packages that have put, sapin sapin, kutsinta, etc…
For about $ 2.not bad at all.
There are also larger platter sizes that are convenient for parties.
I will definitely come back and try some more of the desserts.
turon turon? yes yes!

If you’re looking for Filipino desserts, you’ve come to the right place. Filipino Desserts sells exactly this!
A variety of desserts to choose from: suman, kochinta, sapin sapin, leche flan, puto, etc. All neatly packaged and comes in a variety of sizes. For the un-​decisive, they offer dessert combinations. We settled for a small puto and kuchinta combo plate.
Three stars because it just doesn’t compare to the Filipino desserts i grew up with.

Best turon in San Diego, hands down!
I get orders to bring huge pans of turon to family up in LA when there is a family vacation.
Other items that are ok include pancit palabok and pancit bihon (noodles), and the guinataang halo-​halo. I don’t indulge much in Filipino desserts but this is my go-​to place when I do!

Located inside the Seafood City, Filipino Desserts Plus has cheap desserts and it’s good! I am a huge fan of their Sago at Gulaman! It’s about $ 1.50 and it’s not too sweet! It’s right, and I love it! It’s number 1 in my book! Their Turon, and those sweet balls that they have are also good!
Good pricing for good desserts, love it! Oh and, friendly staff!

Cheap desserts, but not the best.
Had the cravings for some sweets after drinking heavily earlier during the day, so luckily I typed desserts in my Unilocal app and this one was close to Callahan’s where I was drinking earlier.
Like every other review for this shop, I agree that you should try the turon (banana eggroll). It’s fried, with special glaze all over it that makes it nice and crispy. And for 40 cents, you have nothing to lose. See picture for visual representation.
They have a deal if you buy 10, its $ 3.50, or 30 for only $ 10.50. Hmm check the math on that one.
I still had the sweet tooth munchies so I also got a «fruit salad» ice cream on a cone. Only a $ 1. It’s like having that filipino fruit salad, but as ice cream, not bad.
Only two tables by this shop. It’s located inside the Seafood city. Tables were dirty, but the lady attempted to clean it when I sat down.
Cash only if you’re spending less than $ 10 bucks.
They also serve suman (sweet rice inside a banana leaf), some puto (white cake), couple of putas, pecan tarts, bibinka, leche flan, and a few more.
For ice cream, they also serve mango, halo halo, ube, and a few others. $ 1 on a cone or $ 1.10 on a cup.

The turon is a must try. Turon is a small caramelized, fried egg roll-​esque dessert filled with plantain and jackfruit. The sum is much greater than its parts.
Every couple of months I come here to satisfy my craving for this phenomenal dessert. At about 50 cents each it’s far too easy to overindulge. Despite the difficulty, I limit my purchase to only a few turon. Otherwise I will eat way too many and then be stuck in a food comma for a couple hours.
Try to come before noon or 1pm because they always sell out.
I’ve never tried the other desserts because I would rather buy more turon — they’re just too good and too addicting.
If you somehow manage to control yourself and have some turon left over, avoid putting them in the fridge in attempts to preserve their freshness. Instead, cover them up and let them sit somewhere room temperature. Turon tend to harden in the fridge after a couple of hours and can scratch your throat next time you eat them.
