I've bought Asian fares in the store and some of the items are way too expensive. I went today to buy already prepared cooked food in the back . First the lumpia was horrible, I mean this the first time I had a vile one!! I thought you can't screw up fried spring rolls, this one went straight to the bin!!! I'm glad I just ordered 1 order of Lumpia (7 pieces for $5.50 ) what a waste of money and my taste buds. Pancit was okay, the fried crispy pork wasn't the same as it used to be, the sisig wasn't good either. Have you guys changed cooks in the kitchen? What happened guys? This place used to be my to go place when I'm hankering for Filipino food for take away. I gotta start looking for a new place from today. Too bad the quality of your food has gone down.

Had the adobo and it was amazing. The lumping was way over cooked and not worth the money at all. But besides that it was a great place.

Look at all that purple-ly #ube goodness. Ube is one of the hottest food trends right now, but Filipinos were doing it before it was cool. This is the Ube Bibinka Cassava from Mike Cell Oriental Grocery. It's a rich, delicious, sweet, sticky, coconutty cake made with grated cassava, coconut, and condensed milk. One of my favorite Filipino desserts.

In the mood for some fresh Filipino food or Asian grocery items? Then you've come to the right place! My husband is Filipino and is always on the hunt for a really great Asian market and authentic, fresh, Filipino food. Here, we were able to find both! Tons of snack foods, imported items, frozen selection, bakery items, and more. They also have a small cafe in the back that serves Filipino favorites that you can eat there or take to go. It's not terribly big, so the selection is limited but we enjoyed the fried pork, lumpia, tilapia fish, and pancit. The woman in the cafe was very friendly and chatted with my husband about the Philippines. I saw that others had issues with products being expired, so I checked everything we bought prior to purchasing and didn't run into any issues. Shelves were well stocked and my husband found some of his childhood favorites.

Great little store for all kinds of snacks and foods. They have some homemade items as well, dumplings, sweet buns and etc. there is also a little restaurant in the back. Only issue is they are a small business so hours are not always accurate. I went at 7:30pm and their sign says they are open until 8pm however they had already closed and their lights were off. Kind of disappointing because I was hoping to get some late night snacks for Valentine's Day tomorrow. Still a great place just not consistent with their hours. They do however have amazing crunchy rice snacks.

Good selection and very friendly owners! We are used to much larger Filipino markets in California but are grateful that this store is here!

Another Asian grocery store in Jacksonville where I sometimes like to get some goodies. The thing that sets Mike-Cell apart from others is that there is a little cafe with hot and ready Filipino snacks and entrees for those to enjoy while shopping. I've gotten the lumpias (egg rolls) and they were pretty good. Everything else looked good as well, eventually I'll stop and just have a small meal at the cafe. Honestly, the stars are pretty much for the cafe. They do have freshly baked goods and some variety of Asian staples; but, you are better off going to another place if there is something specific that you are looking for, as this place is small and only carries so much. Also, check expiration dates before you buy, I wanted the fruit chips, but they expired months ago.... they need to check their items every now and then. Some items are in disarray, while others are stacked neatly. What is making me hesitant to come back to this store is the lack of friendly service. Each time I come (except for the cafe area) service doesn't seem very welcoming. Usually there is a young girl on her phone, or a couple workers sitting and chatting. They see you when you come in, but that's it. Last time I was checking out, the young girl was very occupied with a couple of kids running around the store (possibly related to the owners) and was shouting at them excessively to get their attention for something.This store is most likely to be a last resort stop if for some reason I can't make it to other Asian stores within the same general area. I'd probably come back just for the hot Filipino food.

Need some ingredients to make that universally loved lumpia of yours or maybe grab some unique treats? Maybe you need some authentic Filipino food in your life? This is your place to go!My family has been going here forever and it is well known, since the owners and titas (aunties) ALWAYS ask how my family is doing (side note, my family is no longer in Florida - I'm the only one :(. )This visit was intentionally to gather some ingredients so I can make my Filipino spaghetti, however went a completely different route. We ended up just eating here instead! The combos are a great price, considering these are home cooked foods. $6.95 for some rice and two sides - can't beat that! Especially since the food is always filling! I ordered the palabok, which is like pancit on steroids, and lechon kawali, pretty much deep fired pork belly, which is out of this world! This is as good as it'll get when it comes to home cooked meals. Luke ordered the BBQ Stick and his routine lumpia. The meal satisfied our hunger to the point where we gave in and decided to finish the last bite, even though I said I'm full. After that we did not buy our ingredients since we were completely stuffedThe prices are great, the selection is wonderful! The home cooked meals are sooooo good that writing this review is making me crave more. Last but not least, the staff make you feel like you're at home which makes a HUGE impact.

Don't trust their hours of operation. Most of the time they just close early for no reason. They don't even put up a sign.I noticed some of their products have no expiration. They seem to have been erased. Their coolers/freezers are outdated which is probably why the longganisa we bought was old (had a sour a taste) which made us throw it away. The owner Mike isn't friendly at all. The wife is.
