First time at Lovely Pao store/buffet today. I have tried a very tasty pork with olives and potato on rice; It has been first time that I have visited the store, for this reason I have been served a complimentary Siopao ( a steamed dumpling with chicken and egg inside) to try; thank you!

I've always loved their siopao! Light and fluffy and massive! Also, never tried to hot food in this location but I'm sure it's just as good as their Toronto location. Their lomi is just exquisite! Definitely glad they have this in the Guelph area.

Best Filipino steamed buns (siopao). Everytime my friend come for a visit she always make sure I have a freshly box (6pcs.)of buns because she knew I love siopao and Lovely Pao makes the best one. I highly recommend to people who wants to experience Filipino foods.

Place slaps, fantastic hot food counter and good filipino groceries that are hard to find elsewhere. Looks like they have lots of options for larger catering platters, could be a great choice for an event but I haven't done that myself.
Jack (customer from Guelph branch)
Best siopao in town! Friendly people, clean place and open on weekends. I know they also serve some Pinoy food and they have small selection of groceries if you need to pick something else up. Empanadas are good, too. But Siopao Asado is worth driving for.

This place has brought me back to my childhood in Manila when my mom used to take me to Kowloon, the siopao and mami was exactly what I remember with the Canadian quality we expect.
Judy (customer from Toronto branch)
The food there reminds of back in the Caribbean, I ate something that was wrapped in a banana leaf which I find very tasty also a round shaped pastry which made my mouth jump with joy. I will definitely stop by again when I'm in the area.

The best siopao I’ve tasted and eaten since I moved to Canada from the Philippines 40 years ago. I hope this store will stay forever so that other people will also be able to taste the best tasting sippao in all of Canada.

"A LOVELY story coming from the Heart"
Two stories that (Ms. Lovely) Connie wanted to share
On our first year when we opened Lovely Pao, we had a teenager who worked with us. One time, she bought a pack of Pork Asado Siopao and gave it to her friend, who that time had a fight with her parents and never spoke to her dad for a year, even to the point that she moved out from their home.
When her friend tasted the siopao, she was amazed and loved it.
One day, her friend went to visit her mom and bought a pack of siopao as a pasalubong (a gift). Her parents ate the siopao and loved it!
For the first time in a year, her dad talked to her and asked “Where did you buy the siopao?".
That’s how their communication started and a relationship blossomed.
When my friend's auntie passed away, her cousin was so devastated and cried day and night. He hasn’t eaten for a few days, took his mom's passing way too hard.
My friend was worried about her cousin not eating at all so she asked him what can she do for him, trying her best to console him and he said "please buy me Lovely Pao Siopao". "Not just any siopao, but Lovely Pao".
Comfort food from Lovely Pao! Wow, I was touched!!!
