I very rarely leave restaurant reviews but needed to let others know about this horrendous experience from September 2023.I was excited to try Via Mare as an out of state visitor. My Filipino friend took me here on a weekday evening. The restaurant wasn’t busy but the waitstaff hardly ever came around (no water refills, no checking in on us). I asked the waitstaff to charge a certain amount on my credit card. I was traveling for work and had to stay under a certain amount. They came back and charged my card the wrong amount. Then they went back and supposedly refunded my card and charged the correct amount. Unfortunately, they never refunded my card for the incorrect amount and kept the mone...
I visited Via Mare on Mission Street in Daly City for the first time in June 2024 and was really disappointed with the service. It took an eternity for someone to take our order. I had to call their attention just to get things moving, and then it took even longer for our food to arrive. Additionally, a group of ten people ended up leaving because they grew tired of waiting for their order to be taken. I noticed that three staff members were just standing by the check-in counter, while two others were busy on their phones. Overall, the service was not up to par.
My wife and I visited Via Mare in the Philippines and we were excited to discover that there's a VM in the Bay Area!The experience was the same if not better! The table service was fairly quick. The staff were friendly and helpful.The food was fresh, delicious and prepared perfectly.Mind you there were only four of us and we ordered for at six!We ordered crispy pata, beef nilaga, pancit bihon, V M bbq pork, fried chicken and Shanghai lumpia!Everyone really enjoyed their choices. We'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.
The best Filipino cuisine around San Francisco. They offer the best authentic dishes that uses fresh ingredients that ultimately pleased your palette. You cannot go wrong with anything in their menu. I strongly suggest the crispy dilis fried rice to start then the rest will follow Wheelchair accessibility: Enough room to accommodate.

We make the trip from Walnut Creek just to enjoy their delicious Filipino dishes! The service can be a bit slow, especially when the restaurant is crowded, but it's always worth the wait! They truly capture the authentic flavors of food from the Philippines!
VERY LONG WAIT. Came here at 11:30am. It’s now 12:25pm and we’ve only received one of the two appetizers. Still no main dish, typical pinoy time with no sense of urgency!
Food was good but I saw a rat run across in front of my table. Not once but twice! I felt nauseous afterwards and had to throw away my leftovers for safety reasons.
Food quality is impressive with homey style. Spacious dining area and clean. Family ran restaurant always good service.
