    Holy CoW! Major changes to the restaurant since i was last here, but all of them are good. The place looks as feels great for breakfast and lunch. I adored my Vietnamese Banh mi but my husband had issues with the bokho, insisting my was better. I use beef only and make a thicker soup. All the same, i cannot wait to eat here again - the menu is outstanding and needs to be explored!

    This place is amazing, I've gone three times this week, the coffee is amazing, the food is always fresh and service is spectacular, I tried something new with the grilled pork chop and it did not disappoint!

    Small brisket pho, French fries & banh mi cold cut sandwich
    Angela S.

    We just returned from a trip to Vietnam & wanted to find authentic pho & banh mi in SA. This place did not disappoint! It was clean, newly remodeled & super cute & inviting. Waitress was helpful & friendly. My husband & I both ordered the cold cut banh mi, split an order of French fries & I had the kid sized brisket pho. Everything was delicious & very fresh! We will definitely be back!!

    This place is amazing! The food was really good. Service was great. Restaurant is clean and very beautiful. We got multiple appetizers, drinks, and main courses!

    Vegetarian pho and passion fruit juice

    I haven't been back here in such a long time but I'm so glad I circled back because my visit was great! The service is quick and friendly, everyone who we interacted with was very kind. I ordered a passion fruit juice, tofu spring rolls, vegetarian pho, and my husband ordered the brisket pho. We were super impressed with how fully loaded both of our bowls were. We each had plenty of our selected protein (veggie pho has tofu) and the broth was very flavorful also. This is definitely a place I'd return to if I'm craving pho in the future.

    Love that the banh mis are clearly labeled. They're also soooo good!

    The food is so good here! I always get the Vietnamese (dac biet special) and the meatballs banh mis. The popcorn chicken is amazing too. If you see pate so (meat pie) in the display case to the right of the cash register, please grab them. It's only $4 for one! Call ahead so they'll have food ready for you for pick up. You can also dine in and they'll bring food out to you after you order at the counter. The staff is very friendly and willing to answer any questions you may have. The menu is extensive so take your time ordering.

    Bo Ne
    Hanna D.

    A friend of mine recommended SP Cafe for Bo Ne when I told him my husband was craving it. Ever since we came back from VN, it's been difficult to find good Bo Ne with the same flavors. We've tried a few different places in Houston but not only was it not the same, it's also like $25 each. Well my husband definitely approved SP Cafe's! He said it's been the best one he's had so far after coming back from VN 2 years ago. I wanted to get Bun Bo Hue but they didn't have it that day. So I got Hu Tieu instead. Broth was very good, lots of fixings, and it was an overall good bowl. They also had a lot of boba options. Next time I think we'd wanna try the Bánh Mì's too.

    SP Cafe is one of those low-key spots that truly delivers where it matters most: the food. The pho here is absolutely authentic, with a rich, flavorful broth that's easily some of the best I've had. You can tell it's been simmered the right way--deep, comforting, and full of flavor. I also tried the beef stew soup, and it was incredible. Classic, hearty, and perfectly seasoned, with tender beef that just melts in your mouth. It tasted like the kind of dish that's been perfected over time. The Vietnamese sandwiches were just as good--fresh bread, well-balanced fillings, and packed with flavor. The inside of the cafe is small and nothing fancy, but that honestly adds to the charm. This is a place that focuses on great food rather than appearances. They also have some of the best soups around and a solid selection of milk tea drinks that are definitely worth trying. The menu is huge, so there's truly something for everyone, whether you're in the mood for soup, sandwiches, or drinks. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portion sizes. I'll definitely be coming back again--SP Cafe is a gem if you're looking for authentic Vietnamese comfort food.

    REALLY GOOD SANDWICHES! My fiancé recommended this place solely for the sandwiches and she couldn't have been more right. They have variety of sandwiches that utilize Vietnamese cooking flavors and meats and veggies on soft sub style rolls. They are excellent. I didn't have time to eat in but upon walking in, I immediately noticed the nice seating and table arrangements. This is a great looking niche lunch spot in my opinion with good lighting and a refreshing vibe. Stop in if you're in the area.

    How are their coffee drinks, do they do latte art or have any really interesting coffee drinks or preparations?

    I'm usually a pretty vanilla customer so I know they have some uncommon drinks I just don't know exactly what they are. I usually get their latte when I need a fix and it's a pretty solid cup every time (I recommend asking for almond flavoring, so… Read more

    Excellent Panaderia! I will come back again when we visit San Antonio…read more Ordering: there is a line you enter that takes you through all the pastries. You order those with a person, then that person takes you to a register. At the register, you can order any of the plated food. They give you a number and the. You go to a table. The servers are very friendly, and the food came out promptly. I love that there are a lot of round tables instead of just square ones, but the chairs do have arms, so they hugged my hips. Parking: They have a parking lot. We were with my hubby, dad, and stepmom, and they had never been to a Mexican bakery, so I had to do a lot of explaining. We got three items from the bakery: a bread one with cream and blueberries, a flaky cup-shaped one with cream, and a triangle flaky one with guava. They were phenomenal! Our fam got one of the flaky cup-cshaoed ones and another cupcake-shaped one that was bread. They loved them both and said they would be back later for more, or tomorrow morning. For our meal, we shared the chicken ranchero Benedict, and it was so tasty on delicious sourdough bread! We used the bread to soak up all the runny yoke and sauce from the meal. There was not a trace of anything left on the plate. Our fam got scrambled eggs and bacon and said it was yummy. They all drank water, but I enjoyed a hot tea latte. It was a little sweeter than I prefer, but it was good.

The staff is incredible and their communication is quite beautiful as it is super in-sync. The mere amount of pastries is impressive. This place may look like a tourist trap, but it operates as a local café with incredible vibes. It errs on the expensive side, but to be fair I think everything is worth it. El buenos dias was very good, and the bread was perfectly toasted. I did not like the beans but that was not the focus. There was so much avocado and a perfect amount of tomatoes. The egg whites were cooked perfectly and they were super fluffy. The bacon and the turkey were outstanding in quality and taste. The pan dulce was to live for. Try the Dubai chocolate and mini chocolate ones. It's worth the hype. Just go ahead and check it out.

    Got recommended this place after hubby went with his co workers…read more For Memorial Day close would be 3 pm CST. When you walk in you have the option to do a to go order on the kiosk or stand in line to order in/to go. While in line you are in line where they hold their bakery items, smart business move as it definitely enticed me to order some baked goods! We got 2 kouign amann, one cheesecake and one strawberry. Both were so good and not overly sweet. I'll definitely get it again and try other options they have. The food is really good and tasty! I got the torta Chicken milanesa with fideo soup and hubby got the half/half salad chicken milanesa. Service was great despite it being so busy. We didn't have to wait too long for our food to get to our table which is awesome considering. The overall feel of the place is social and well spaced. Definitely will be coming back!

    The food was absolutely fantastic, but you could tell they were absolutely swamped with the crowd…read moreand weren't handling it the best. I don't think it's the staff's fault, more a shortcoming of the kitchen setup, but it still caused a pretty significant wait. We tried to go on a Saturday morning, not realizing how popular it was, and it was a total no-go. So we ordered ahead for Sunday morning, planning to just pick up and bring food back to the house. The food was ready when we arrived, but the coffee wasn't (I don't think they have a fridge or warmer to keep drinks at the right temperature, so they don't make them until you come in to pick up.) We had to remind them that we'd ordered drinks and we ended up waiting another 20-30 minutes, our food in hand, while we waited on 3 iced coffee orders. I think the issue was a mix of crowds and kitchen layout. They were very clearly trying to make sure that the people who were seated in the restaurant were being served as well, but all of the drink orders were going through this one, tiny coffee station that frankly couldn't keep up. And I think our drink orders were basically added at the end of the drink queue when we arrived to pick up our order. We didn't get any sort of priority because we'd technically ordered ahead. We essentially skipped the line, but not the queue on drinks. All in all, I'd definitely want to visit again. The food and drinks WERE really great. I had the avocado toast with chicken and for a seemingly simple dish it was absolutely phenomenal. The abuelita's was the best of the 3 iced coffee offerings we tried, and I would definitely order again. But we'll definitely have to plan/strategize around crowds and be prepared for a long wait even if we order ahead.
