I love this place! The decor and vibe are on point, including the great music selection.I had a honey lavender latte that was delicious and not too overwhelming on the flavors, as florals often are. I also had the oatmeal with fresh fruit and it was a little bland but I kinda like that in oatmeal anyway. They were also very accommodating and I was able to get oat milk with both of the items I ordered.They have a little shopping section near the door with some really cool items including shirts, jewelry, mugs, and hats.Can’t wait to go back!

Very nice place, you can tell much pride is put into all the details. So surprised to find la good mexican inspired restaurant on this side of town. I had the taco called The Extra which contained black beans, bacon, white cheese, and avocado slices on a homemade flour tortilla and it was damn good. No worries because they have the pinto kind also. They have traditional favorites as well as several new options.. Including baked goods and fresh squeezed juices. The decor is beautiful and the staff is awesome,

Some of the best breakfast tacos in the area. The food is always fresh and the tortillas are incredible. We love the vegetable quesadilla and breakfast tacos (too many good ones to list). Convenient location as well!

They had me at fresh orange juice😍.... tacos did not make it in the pics😁... excellent customer service, great ambience, loved the music... price ok for the area and the establishment...I tried La Dama I would recommend 🥰 and the fresh orange juice was delightful.... I ordered a Carne guisada and chicharron verde and they were ok( its very hard and sometimes unfair to rate a taco when youre 1000% mexican😁) and I would order them again. I would definitely recommend this place.

Traveled to come eat here on Sunday, they’re google info said it’s open. It was recommended by a friend, maybe the food is good, but their customer service info is totally the opposite. So, no they are not open on Sundays people. It’s the small details that count as well, hopefully they fix this. SMH 🤦‍♂️

Grabbed the veggie street tacos to go and they were really good. But I also ordered a caramel latte and was a little disappointed that they didnt have oat milk. The non-dairy options are coconut milk and almond milk. Im allergic to nuts and coconut milk changes the flavor of a drink too much. Plus there was no fat free milk. More milk options would be awesome.

A very quaint coffee shop with Argentine latin flair. Havent been since pre-pandemic and it seems their menu items have slimmed down a bit but the coffee and food was great. WiFi is olid for work or studying.

Tacos and coffee were great. I liked that the tables had a nice distance between them inside. We went when they just opened so it wasnt very busy. Probably about 5 other customers inside. Would definitely come back here again for tacos and coffee.

I was so grateful that they serve breakfast tacos all day. They dont make homemade corn tortillas, though. They are packaged but flour tortillas are homemade. I got a barbacoa taco with onions and cilantro (optional). Taco was not greasy at all and very tasty. 😋 I got my taco to go but the atmosphere looks very pleasant. They also have a table or two outside on the sidewalk. Very relaxing atmosphere.

Review №27

This place is easily my favorite coffee shop in San Antonio. I wasn’t a big fan of coffee, but Cafe Martinez has changed that. The atmosphere is great for studying and/or hanging out with friends. The food is fresh and very tasty (I really like their Cesar salad aka Cafe Martinez salad, buffalo chicken wrap, & empanadas). They also have special items that they add to the menu every once in a while and they’re pretty good too. Also, their spinach cake is definitely worth trying!

Review №31

Its about 3.5 stars for me. Really friendly and attentive service, the inside is pretty cool and has quirky little touches that make it fun (old fashioned bicycle hanging from the ceiling for instance) and the use of playing cards that are not the usual ones, and good coffee. I had a well pulled espresso shot and a decent cortado. The disappointment was in food (the empanadas were very so so ...they Argentinians wouldnt be happy) and the cakes while interesting (spinach cake anyone) tasted like they used cool whip instead of really cream which just throws the experience off.Fresh foods looked decent so maybe will try that next time. Decent coffee though and good service!

They seem to have expanded the menu to include breakfast plates and tacos. But I go for the empanadas! The beef empanada is a meal all by itself, and its made to order so its piping hot when it comes to the table! A little green chimichurri sauce on the side makes it perfect! They also have a great selection of coffees and teas!

Yummy cortado, delicious tiramisu, and lots of other cakes and coffee and tea options I want to try out! 10 out of 10, Ill be back! Staff was friendly and courteous, no wait, and comfortable seating areas with a laptop bar for working.Went back today for the first time in ages, and it was just as good! A word of caution: if you dont like to wait and relax with your drink before your food comes out a while later, dont be mad if you end up waiting a while for it. Its on Argentina time, OK? I think the southern hemisphere likes to enjoy their meals rather than rush through them American-style. The service was great, and one of the owners was there and came out to talk to me as well. I made them a few greeting cards and was gifted a free dulce de leche cheesecake for my efforts. Ill be back again and again! I highly recommend the spinach cake... its just the right amount of sweetness and the pomegranate in it is delicious!

Very friendly and helpful staff that can make recommendations. The barista was very skilled and made a beautiful cappuccino. Cant speak to the meals, but I had a croissant and it was also delicious. Additionally, the inside is decorated in a way that makes you feel warm and comfortable, but still very stylish as you would expect from a coffee shop. Plenty of seating for making yourself at home to study or catch up with friends! One thing I would say is that the espresso itself isnt particularly flavorful and was a little on the watery side, but it is certainly prepared well in the store and is much better than the average place.

Review №57

I was recommended this place by a friend because we were talking about hole in the wall coffee shops and not getting chain coffees anymore. He raved about Cafe Martinez, so I decided to stop in. I got there a little after they opened, I think by about 25 minutes. Nothing was set up. One person was ahead of me and he ordered, but took a bit. There was only one person in the whole store I think doing everything. The menu looked really good, but when I asked if they had half and half they didnt have any, nor did they have heavy whipping cream. They had oat milk, regular milk, and soy milk. I was extremely disappointed as I am trying to be keto friendly and I dont like oat milk and soy milk. I ended up going to another place that served half and half. I would give it more stars had they been better prepared when they opened and had they had half and half or heavy whipping cream to put in my latte, but they didnt. I didnt even order, which was a huge let down. I wont be back.

This place has really turned around for the better with the new ownership. Same look, but a brand new menu sourced locally and organically. Everything Ive ordered had great flavor and portion. My favorites are the tacos and mint chocolate cold brew. The pastries sourced locally from a polish baker with unique and traditional varieties that are consistently well-made. I love the presence of the owners. If youve been here before months ago, you will tell a difference. Life, passion, and warmth has been breathed back into this cafe.

Waited over 45 mins to get my coffee and pastry. Was the first to order out of 8 other customers and got my things last. The baristas priority was to get the to-go coffees done first before the order of customers that came in to sit down and enjoy their coffee and pastry. They need someone else at the counter, not just one person.Update: coffee was not good at all. I ordered a Tazon with soy, extremely watered down. Let the barista know and she told me thats how it is. I responded with no, Ive had it here before and it has never been like that. She didnt bother to apologize at all, simply thats how the soy is. Had to change from 2 stars to 1. I noticed that a lot of the other customers orders were wrong too and she was going around telling them sorry. Very disappointed.

WoW$$$I had the Grand Tano with a salad and cup of coffee it came out to be 16.51The coffee was nice seemed a little on the weak side and I think lacked depth.The salad was made of just iceberg lettuce with some pretty nice parmesan a tasty dressing and some prosciutto I do believe on the top.The hoagie roll as well as the rest of the ingredients on the sandwich where of very high quality and that my friends is how you end up with a $16.51 sandwich lunch.A little more than I was expecting when I stopped in for what I got. However I see where they spent the money and it seems that it actually works out pretty fair.Probably wont be on my priority list when Im in the market for a sandwich in this area next time however its definitely worth a try and if money is no object to you it certainly wouldnt be a bad regular Hangout.Im curious about some of those pastries I walked by when I left certainly left an alluring image in my mind.

It was so so but for the price it could have been better. They claim Argentinian food but only influenced not authentic at all. Its like going to a Mexican restaurant here in San Antonio and expecting authentic Mexican food, not going to happen. I mean mate is usually out of a certain type of cup with a metal straw, I got water with a tea bag. I probably could have just asked for free hot water and brought my own tea bag. I guess for being in the medical district this is typical but, probably wont be back.
