Malabito Street Catering & Cha-a Teahouse

Ordered on doordash and got stuck in church traffic for 25 minutes. After arriving at the place, my food was on top of the counter with no heat source. I touched the bottom of the bag and felt the pasta to be on the colder side. As i was about to ask for it to be remade, the employee cut me off, saying, "I'm not remaking it, and you should've arrived earlier.". She was extremely rude and unprofessional. I know there is procedures in place for contingency plans. Extremely unprofessional. This happened on Sunday Nov 3rd, 2024 @1:00PM. The worker was a girl.

Food is amazing everytime, a pot of tea is big and great price. They also have a variety of Filipino desserts and foods. The owner and staff are so nice and kind. I find myself coming here so often. Great place for studying, eating or just admiring the atmosphere.

Katie was amazing! The whole experience was great from start to finish. You can make your own tea blend or just enjoy the wide variety that they have, hot or cold. The snacks were delicious too! I intend to spend several days of my summer there.

Open weekends, excellent. Both food and the tea; I don't have words. I can't describe the tea, except I haven't had tea this good in America until I had this tea.

Such a beautiful place to explore and enjoy various types of teas! The owner was very sweet and answered so many of our curious questions. Enjoyed some tea there and excited to try some of the loose leaf ones we bought!

I love coming here when I get the chance and this place is worth my drive every time. I visit when I spend time with family AND I get to enjoy my childhood favorites (Filipino dishes) and the huge variety of teas... well, it is all so satisfying! My ultimate favorite go-to tea is the Strawberry Hibiscus & Teatox combo. They also have BOBAS (TARO) ?The owner Epsie and her family, so wonderful!

This place is amazing! We’ve been looking for a legit tea house in San Antonio for awhile now and this place just opened up near us. They have a large variety of organic tea and I was surprised to see they had food too which was equally amazing. I had the jasmine tea and dumplings and they were so so good. Definitely will be coming here often !!

The service, food, and tea was immaculate. I will definitely go again. Everything was fresh and excellent.

OMG the Pot Roast Curry with rice was absolutely wonderful same as last weeks Basil Pork Belly rice absolutely delicious..

Owner is the sweetest she brings out fresh pandesal with our tea. Has the biggest range of blends for any tea shop I've seen in San Antonio, it's quite rare to see an actual tea shop here. It's only open for weekends for now but Its one of the most calming environments that serve actual tea as well as food.

I have always loved Espie's cooking! She can do it all, from salads to Filipino cuisine, and even Filipino fusion/Filipino inspired dishes. She also does Keto and Gluten-Free meals! I will definitely be here a lot!!
