Marcelina’s Filipino Restaurant and Karaoke Bar - Toronto, Ontario

Food was mediocre. Lacked depth of flavors. Grilled fish wasn’t fresh and was dry and bland. Service was slow and hard to flag down the servers. Limited parking.

I am extremely disappointed with my recent dining experience at Marcelina’s restaurant. My husband and I traveled an hour specifically to eat at a Filipino restaurant, only to be met with terrible service from waitress JASMINE and her co-worker TOTO if I’m not mistaken. Not only they were unprofessional, but ... they were also incredibly unapproachable. It's a shame that the service completely ruined what could have been a decent meal. The food was average at best, but the WORST service from Jasmine overshadowed any positive aspects of our visit. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, unless they enjoy being treated poorly by the staff. Read more

A fun Filipino restaurant where you can sing or enjoy people singing and have good time with your friends and family. Their food surprised me a lot, it was delicious. I was very hesitate to come because i read some bad reviews about the service but to my surprise they were very ... friendly and caring. Read more

One thing I love is a mom and pops eatery. This here is definetly that. Your quaint LLBO bar, and how can you forget the fun of Karaoke. We didn't go to sing, but that would be a fun family fun outing. We enjoyed the ... Pancit Bihon that was made fresh to order and not to mention delicious. As our side meat we had the skewers of pork and chicken BBQ (must order min 3 skewers). The vinegar for the skewers had a little kick and that too was flavourful. won't regret the amount of skewers ordered as everything is made as shareable plates. This is little gem of a restaurant. PS...Tell AJ hi while your there a great energy that you will appreciate. PPS..Tita if your reading this, your food will still always be #1. But, this spot is YUMMY! Read more

Food was pretty amazing. We ordered menudo and chicken skin. The serving was pretty generous but their pricing is more expensive than the other restaurants beside them. The chicken skin is delicious and complements beers. Their customer service is top notch and the server was courteous and helpful. Pretty good experience overall.
