YOU SHOULD VISIT HERE! #IT IS PLACED IN 4TH FLOOR OF FISHER MALL# I went Buddy's main branch 5 years ago just in accident. That time i tried Hardinera and it was really tasty. I was curious what is the name of the food, but when i showed the pic of Hardinera to my Filifino friends, they didnt know about it. 5 years later, I could use street view system. so i just try to trace my memories to find this shop and i found it through it's sunflower interior. When i searched Buddy's i could find many branches. and i visited here. The store is placed in 4th floor of Fisher mall. At first i lost my way to find it XD it is always crowded but staffs are so kind and gentle even though they are busy. I went there once a week when i stayed in the Philippines. You should try Hardinera and leche flan. To me, the best leche flan ever. it is cheesy and creamy. Casava cake, lomi, bulalo, bbq...everything is great. Ahh, and also Sisig is fantastic. it is really tasty. Im a bit sad cuz i couldnt try caldareta here. I think if they sell caldareta i will eat it everyday. XD The price is really cheap..The food is enough for 2 people! I attached menu..check it hehe I miss the time i visited there and ate delicious food in the weekend when i got stress. The food is really great..so nice. You should visit here And thank you for the kind staffs, and maybe manager of this branch. When i visited here last time, the man staff treated me very kind who wore different uniform is he a manager? Thank you so much! I will visit the Philippines again to eat Buddy's

Actually we think of Buddy's as the best Pinoy pancit and it is our favorite since years ago. Recently we dined in another branch (not here) and the pancit Lucban tasted different, not delicious, kinda rancid even. So we were hesitant to dine here but relented, thinking the cook here is different after all. Good thing is that it did not disappoint, it captured the yummy taste we have grown to love, but with somewhat way lesser onions now. Tip: pouring vinegar makes it more appetizing. We have yet to try their halo halo. Mentally made note, will surely order it next time, as I saw they were making a long line of halo halos, so it must mean something! We used to order the bigger size pizza but now tried the solo size, and my, how small it was, maybe like a siopao! They used to be situated on a higher level, but now they are in the Upper Ground floor. Has its own hand wash area, but for the toilet, go to the main mall. Very bright attractive Fiesta design of store. Full house of customers. How I wish their unli would have a comeback, it was panalo! Cons: There was a chunk of meat in the pancit that I don't know if undercooked as it has a bloody red streak. There was a ham slice (I am sure of it) that made its way into the vegetarian pizza. Hayyy... Although the cashier is friendly, the other servers are ok but definitely could do well to better their hospitality and be more magiliw as Pinoy restos truly should!

We went here to eat lunch after we're done buying groceries in fishermall's supermarket. The food is good. Me and my wife love their pancit lucban. It has plenty of toppings! At first I thought this resto only serves Filipino food (sisig, pancit etc) but they also serve pizzas and burgers! Tried their bacon and pepperoni supreme and my son love it. I definitely recommend their pancit and sisig here

The ambiance was really great and the interior design is like taking you to another place, it feels like its "fiesta" and its instagram worthy place. The food was good. Good place to celebrate and they have additional space upstairs. The service is quite fast.

We went to Buddy’s at Fishermall today and enjoyed the delicious dishes we ordered. It was budget-friendly since we chose group meals. The halo-halo wasn’t too sweet for my taste, but it was packed with ingredients. Their pizza was tasty, and the pancit was good as well. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Reminder ang water lang is kakaiba ang lasa kaya you might need to order mineral water sa mga maselan jan tulad us hehehe
