I like that this has the essence of a Filipino “Turo-Turo” (point point) style restaurant while having young/ modern elements in a casual approach instead of being a too fusion-y / run of the mill Pinoy restaurant. I had low expectations given the area and my quick overview of the menu on my drive over.

It’s a great place to grab a quick meal that pleases the traditional Filipino palate, or if you just want boba and a quick snack-they deliver on both.

I ordered the 3 items special with pancit, chicken adobo, and pork sinigang. I was too hungry to consider taking a photo unfortunately. While enjoying my meal I noticed that most of the items are made to order (none of mine was) and the chef/ owner I think sent over an extra bowl of the sinigang sabaw (broth) so that I can enjoy more sourness. I appreciate this thoughtfulness as most times I sometimes ask if they can just give me more of it instead of the “laman” (meat/ veggies) because most of the times I just want a taste of sour soup. This time I didn’t make the request that I normally do because I didn’t want to burden them (also I was lazy/ shy/ hungry). I sometimes get weird looks when I do this.

They serve fun extras like dessert baos, puddings that I thought was leche flan (it’s not-but a thicker version of it). I tried the coffee and it was really good-not too sweet. I also had plain iced jasmine tea (essentially the base of their boba drinks) because I didn’t want too much sugar. I also ordered Batangas Kapeng Barako (plain no sugar or milk) which was good and strong.

Overall the food delivers for someone like me who wants a taste of Pinoy food without the hassle of making it myself and being stuck with a ton of left overs for weeks. Prices are very fair, variety is nice and has great range (Sisig tacos, Sisig nachos, beef mami, popcorn chicken, Kare kare).

Also the owners are really nice and take pride of their staff. They had a whole banner listing the names of everyone, cute stuff.

Just happened to drive by and noticed this new place opened in the neighborhood and decided to give it a try. Extremely pleased with their service and food. Very clean and good food. Family owned business and they are very eager to please the customers. Worth visiting and check it out.

Best place to hang out and relax. The food are meticulously chosen and arei exceptionally good. PTealicious is super clean and good airy ambiance. They also serve the rarest and almost extinct barako coffee from the Philippines.

Give them a try and you won’t be disappointed.

I was excited to try Filipino food but it turned out to be just mehh. The food and the tea was ok. Asked for 25 percent sugar and it was still way too sweet. Honestly I feel like they are doing too much ( food, boba tea, bar?) And everything was mediocre. Hopefully they last long enough for me to give them another try in the future.

I've been waiting so long for this place to open! I went in on their soft opening day and walked away full and happy.

I got a matcha milk tea (less sweet) with boba and was really pleased with it overall. Not too sweet, nice and creamy.

For food, they had very yummy egg rolls and what they called "Chinese Jambalaya." So good! Do yourself a favor and try it. It was spicy but in the best way possible. Like a really warm heat that I kept coming back to. I had to stop myself from eating the whole thing so I could bring it home for others to try!

It looks like it's a family run business with a handful of staff as well. They even have a bar I can't wait to try! I'm really glad to have them in the neighborhood and I'll be back again!
