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!

Food was made to order, fresh jngediwnts. Service was friendly. Decor was typical of a cafe. Nice. Would be back.

S4 - Grilled Pork Sandwich / Banh Mi Thit Nuong

The Banh Mi combo is a super good deal! The milk tea I had was yummy and the crab Rangoon was the best I've had in a while. The staff is super friendly and attentive as well.

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!

Vegetarian pho and passion fruit juice
colleen w.

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.

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!!

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.

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.

This place is my favorite pho spot in San Antonio! Marcus is a wonderful server when we came in & really took great care of us. Me and my wife love SP cafe and it truly is authentic, rich broth.

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.

F3. Roasted Marinated Chicken Sandwich

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.

We always grab boba here but decided to try some of their snack/appetizers this time! They have a popcorn chicken which was juicy and flavorful, the fries were nice and crispy, but the crab rangoon had an odd flavor :( the middle was a yellow color, which was confusing because it's cream cheese.. not sure if they were experimenting a new recipe or something! Definitely try out some of their other food items though -- they've expanded the menu!

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…

I like the other location (cuz it's bigger and nicer), but this particular one is the closest to…read moreme. Artea is a pretty decent chain with a wide variety of loose-leaf teas, milk teas & lattes, frozen milk teas/drinks, and a huge selection of specialty drinks such as "cucumber lychee bliss", "strawberry lychee lime green tea," or "mango coconut paradise." They also have a big selection of toppings. I love how they have basil seeds and red bean (2 of my favs). I'm pretty picky about my milk teas, but Artea's has been consistent and not watered down like most. Their food menu, although is quite pricey on some items, are pretty tasty. We tried the $24 ribeye steak fried rice and was pretty happy with it. The bento boxes are a bargain. Parm garlic aioli fries were good. Tonkatsu ramen was with "udon" like noodles, which was different. Lots of finger foods/appetizers to enjoy with your boba. They have a small dessert selection (fried oreos & matcha ice cream). I would say it's one of the better boba joints in San Antonio. My only complaint is that they run out of items on a regular basis--happens more often than I would like--ex: wintermelon milk tea (which is hard to get nowadays, unless you go to KFT).

The boba is delicious and always hits the spot. The food menu is great too!! I've tried the popcorn chicken, poke nachos, and bento boxes, and everything has been solid. Super chill vibe with games and lots of UTSA students studying, so it's perfect for hanging out or getting some work done. Fast service, good quality, and I've never had any issues. Definitely recommend.

This is not our regular go-to Tealicious location but last Friday night since we were around the area after our errands at HEB, we decided to visit. We've been here several times before and I thought perhaps it was just an isolated incident. I let my emotions die down too that's why I waited this long. Just bought four drinks from our regular neighborhood Tealicious on Potranco near 1604 and just can't help finally posting this objective review. Back to the Tealicious by HEB Bandera experience, they are totally consistent...consistently providing a horrible customer service experience. The young lady in the cash register was simply impersonal, dull, and snobbish. Again, we thought this was isolated but on all those several instances we visited this location, we have exactly the same sub par customer service experience. This afternoon visit at Tealicious on Potranco, I asked the young lady if the owners are the same on both locations, she verified it not the same. The staff at the Bandera location needs to learn from these excellent staff members at Potranco. No matter what time of day, or day of the week and no matter who's tending the store, the customer service at Tealicious Potranco is consistently stellar. My experience this afternoon at Tealicious Potranco made me finally decide to post my unacceptable customer service experience at Tealicious Badera. Never ever again visiting Tealicious at Badera, we'll always be loyal to our neighborhood Tealicious at Potranco! The best in customer service, consistent at all times!

I went with a vanilla milk tea with strawberry popping boba and it was pretty good but not quite the same. Not sure if they had strawberries syrup to add to the sides of the cup but that would have made a big difference. I would still recommend you give it a try.
