Diners talk about Jalone’s as that low-key spot where the food hits hard on flavor without hitting hard on the wallet. Folks call out the Filipino staples—pork sisig, pork adobo, and a solid tapsilog made with the family’s own lean sausages—saying portions are generous and everything’s seasoned well. Others highlight the seafood boil and dumplings as surprising standouts, while the Canadian comfort side shows up with a crowd-pleasing poutine, bacon cheeseburger, and burger steak. Even takeout gets compliments for thoughtful plating, which is rare for a casual setup.

Service gets consistent praise for warmth and friendliness. A few diners mention easy, genuine chats with the server, including stories about family back home, adding to the homey vibe. Customers come for the hearty Filipino flavors and fair prices, but some mention the space has a basic, cafeteria-style feel—more practical than polished. Travelers passing through Vanderhoof say it’s a satisfying stop tucked inside the mall, and locals call it a great-value gem that blends Filipino favorites with familiar Canadian bites.
