Finally tried 2pc Honey Garlic Fried Chicken Meal (w/ 1 side)
Final verdict: Great chicken, tasty rice, but the sauce and price didn't quite win me over. I'm glad I tried it, but I don't see myself ordering it again.
First, the positives. I was pleasantly surprised by the generous size of the chicken pieces. The meat was juicy and tender, with a lovely crispy coating. The adobo rice was also very tasty!
Now, the sauce. While it was decent, I was expecting a more traditional honey garlic flavour—sweet, savoury, garlicky, and sticky. Instead, there was a noticeable hint of vinegar that gave it a slightly tart finish. Not necessarily bad, just not what I was hoping for.
Then there's the price. Two pieces of chicken, 8 oz of adobo rice, and a cup of spaghetti came to $27 before tip! For about $30, I could get a full order of Korean fried chicken.

I'm giving it 3 stars because their Peach Mango Pie is the best, though it's quite overpriced for its size.
The 3 Pc Jolly Crispy Chicken w/ 1 Side is ok.
The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy inside. I think it's ok but I've had more flavorful fried chicken elsewhere. The gravy is quite bland too. The fries are nice and crispy.
The 2 Pc Burger Steak w/ 1 Side is decent as well. I'm not a fan of the patties because I could barely taste the beef. It really doesn't taste like a beef burger patty. It tastes more like a meatloaf than a burger.
I think I will just stick to their peach mango pie when I order.
Jollibee is quite expensive too. I paid almost $90 for 3 pcs of chicken, a burger steak combo and 12 pies.

This place was astonishingly bad even by fast food standards. My friend’s chicken tender combo cost over $20 and came with less chicken than would feed a child. The spicy fried chicken and the regular fried chicken were indistinguishable in taste (no exaggeration). Fried were cold. Gravy had no flavour. The drink was the best part.
We’d heard good things about Jollibee but man we got duped

This was our regular orders from the downtown branch and it was always good. Idk what happened to this.
Burger 2 Pc Burger Steak w/ 1 Side had a weird taste especially the sauce. Jolly Spaghetti Family Pack was bland and dry. 2 Pc Jolly Crispy Chicken w/ 1 Side Fries was oily, gravy was ok. Only perfect thing was the Peach Mango Pie. We all got them warm and bag was sealed.
Delivery guy was nice. Will never order from this store again.

Im very disappointed with the cheesy yumburger. Because, the sauce is very light and the patty is sooooo dry. Imagine the patty is so dry, the sauce is very little and the price is doubled of mcdonald's cheese burger. What I mean is, its very expensive so pls give us a decent burger
