Everything tasted great, and we enjoyed our meals! Service was pleasant, as a security guard greeted and even opened the doors for us. The staff seated us and took our orders immediately despite how busy the restaurant was. They even wrapped our leftovers in foil for us :) The appetizers took a while to arrive, but we didn't mind as there is plenty of AC while waiting. The actual entrees came relatively quickly. For payment, they accept credit cards I couldn't give 5 stars due to the sunny side-up egg having a layer of raw egg white (the egg came with the pork longannisa breakfast), and because the dressing on the salad was so thick and felt slightly congealed(?) Aside from the raw egg mishap, it was an overall nice experience!

You can hang out on their patio and people watch, relax on their covered swinging bench, or head on inside. They also have private study/meeting rooms for some peace and quiet. There's free WiFi, a strong aircon, soft music playing in the background, lots of elbow room, and a clean fully stocked bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful. I ordered a shake and a slice of cake. I felt like a little kid enjoying my strawberry milkshake with whipped cream and strawberry syrup drizzle. I even had a shovel straw to scoop up every last drop YUMMY! It was made with real strawberries and strawberry syrup: sweet with a hint of tart. I also had their custard cake which was moist and delicious. I'm planning to return to try out their food; but it'll need to be after 5pm when their food menu is available.

Despite the most recent review being 1 star, I still wanted to try Marthina's Cafe. Unfortunately,…read moreI had a similar experience as the last person who posted, as a majority of the menu items were unavailable. Out of the extensive coffee/boba listings, only 3 drinks were in-stock. It took us around 10 minutes of going through the lunch menu and being told they did not have what we wanted, to the point we debated leaving; I decided to just settle for fries and a salad since they had the chicken adobo that my bf ordered. In the time it took for our meals to arrive, another family left in frustration after multiple attempts to find something available The employee at the register was rude and completely unsympathetic as she kept coldly repeating "(dish/drink) is unavailable", while offering no alternatives. She watched us struggle to choose the next-best options for 10 minutes, then finally told us what they did have, which implicitly informed us that during the entire interaction, she was well-aware of their inventory but could not be bothered to let us know. My bf said his chicken adobo and the garlic cheesy fries were good. My chicken caesar salad was okay, but the dressing tasted slightly off. My coffee arrived when we were almost done eating- I think they forgot about it... The mocha frappe was so rich and decadent, which was bittersweet because the new Nutella Espresso and the Pepero coffee that we had originally chosen would have been amazing, but (as you can guess) both were unavailable so I had to resort to my default mocha It's understandable to run out of ingredients or wait on a supply re-stock, but to the extent of having less than 10% of the dishes/drinks on your menu is just... They're receiving 3 stars because I loved the mocha frappe (it brought them up from 2 stars) But please work on customer service :(

They even had some folk guitar music playing in the background. The prices are very fair. Average 120-130 pesos for a rice meal. All day breakfast for 80-90 pesos. They have sides and shareable bites like sisig and Sriracha wings for about 200somethingish pesos. I ordered the strawberry blossom drink . It had graham cracker cookie like crumble on top and bottom. It tasted exactly like a strawberry angel cake in a cup. Kim ordered the carbonara. Precy ordered a BBQ rice plate and we ordered a few sides of the pork sisig. Dad ordered the sweet and sour fish. It was a lot of food. The sisig to share was enough for 3 people. I split a serving of rice with my mom. The food was fresh and pretty good. Id come back again. Good price, nice and clean ambiance, food came out quickly , and the taste was yummy. I was not disappointed.
