Reviews


A popular old cafe located in the bustling streets of Malate, known for its signature hot chocolate and ensaymada, has attracted big names such as the President himself, PNoy, and other notable personalities. Despite its charm, some diners have reported sightings of a tiny mouse scurrying around the tables, possibly due to the restaurant's age and proximity to bodegas. The menu offers nostalgic dishes like Salmon with Orange Sauce that have left a lasting impression on returning customers. The ambiance, though vintage and luxurious, could benefit from some sprucing up. Overall, the cafe remains a beloved spot for comforting Filipino fare and indulgent treats, on average, Za's Cafe has been rated as 3.2.
