We always order these:
Appetizer: chicken quesadilla
Pizza: Qizia Special and Seafood Special
Service is not always the same. Sometimes you get good service but sometimes not. But we really like the food mentioned above and we eat here 4 to 6 times a month especially when we have a craving for pizza.
Whenever I want to destress this is my go to restaurant. Their hot chocolate is surprisingly delicious and calms me down whenever I stay at their restaurant
I'm a regular customer of Qizia Cafe since 2015. The best yung spicy shrimp pasta nila, cheese sticks and also their red velvet cake. Super friendly pa ng staff nila and mura lang din. Sulit na sulit 💕
MASARAP LAHAT AHAHAHA. MULA APPETIZER, ENTREE AT DESSERT! PATI YUNG DRINKS. THE BEST PIZZA AT CHOCOLATE CAKE. MOIST YUNG CAKE AT DI MASYADONG MATAMIS. PANG FAMILY CASUAL LUNCH TYPE GANERN HEH
Great value for money. The crispy pork sinigang was super good. I can’t stop thinking about that soup. Ang asim! Ang sarap! I ordered exrtra rice!
I'm quite picky when it comes to my favorite pasta in white sauce. A friend told me about the resto way back in 2013, and said that aside from great food and ambience it's also quite cheaper as compared to other restos in Marikina. I decided to give it a try and ordered Creamy Chef's Delight, Qizia's Special Pizza, Cheese Sticks, Nachos, Crispy Pork Sinigang (because why not), Oreo Cheesecake (superfan of cheesecakes), lava cake and sansrival. I enjoyed the food, especially the cheesecake and sansrival (best I tasted so far). I'll visit again soon to try other items in their menu and I heard they had store renovation which made it look more rustic.
This is the family go to.
I always order the Seafood Pasta and pumpkin soup.
Family favorites are as follows:
Pan grilled porkchop
Beef pesto
Mozarella sticks
Baked Mac and cheese
Serving is generous and just right for the price.
One star deduction for the quite lenghty meal. Prep
Big serving and fair price. We go here with my family or tambay with friends because the ambiance is nice. The attendants are also nice and friendly. Service is relatively fast. Food is yummy. We used to dine here back when Qizia is still a very small private cafe of thr hospital. I always order their chicken cordon bleu.
This is definitely a family restaurant where you can enjoy delicious dinner. I had their steak the last time I went here and I loved it. Their servings are enough to make you full. I especially love their brazo de mercedes. It so soft and it doesn't give you the "umay".
One of the worth to try gems in Marikina. Given the price, their pesto and cheeseticks are both tasty that it balances the Italian cuisine's authenticity and Filipino's taste preference ❤
Been here so many times!! Celebrated birthdays, Christmas parties and a lot more events because of its proximity and quality of food! 🥰 Prices of foods are also worth it!
Worth the food and the place is nice. Recommended their smoothie good for the hot summer season. They have big serving... Reasonable price... Good for breakfast meet up with your friends...
LOCATION: 3 - A bit difficult to find. Nakatago sa side ng hospital
AMBIANCE : 4 - Spacious and well lit.
FOOD: 4 - delicious and affordable
We ordered:
Pizza Bacon: 3 - masarap ang lasa kaso mejo mahirap nguyain
Beef Stew: 4 - Lasang sosyal na beef pares.
Chefs Delight Pasta: 5 - Kakaiba. White sauce na may kamatis with chicken strips.
Steak with Mashed Potato: 4 - Malasa ung gravy pero ung steak itself mejo kulang ang lasa. Mejo mahirap din hiwain at nguyain ang steak.
Lava Cake: 5 - the BEST! Ill order this again!
Customer Service: 4
Highly recommended!
We will return soon!
This is my third time dining in this cafe.We ordered cheesesticks and steak.The taste was a bit bland for the steak.It lacked some flavor but it's tender.Was a bit disappointed with the coffee because they gave me a powdered creamer (coffee mate) for the iced coffee so it definitely did not blend well.What I like most here is the al fresco spot outside.Will come back some other time and when I'm craving for their delicious cheese sticks.
this is a perfect place if you're looking for comfort food. their cakes are lovely especially the red velvet. i love bragging this place to my friends who live outside marikina 🤭
My family and I have been coming to this place since I was younger. I love their food! To be precise, nothing beats their mozzarella sticks. Lol. The only downside is, they don't have high chairs available for kids. And they serve slow. Most staffs aren't friendly at all.
Sulit 'cause its affordable and masarap. Servings are big enough for sharing. Even the pizza (na 200 lang). Their crispy lechon belly is to die for. :( seafood pasta has fresh shrimps and the squid is really tender. Will definitely recommend.
Waiters are very accommodating and attentive towards the customer’s needs and requests. Food quality is good with large portions. I like their spicy prawns, beef salpicao, pork ribs, pumpkin soup. Cold air conditioning. Value for money is excellent. I like how it closes late, perfect for those who want a relaxing dinner after a long day.
Food is sooo great! Love their Arrabiatta and Spicy Seafood Pizza, and many more! 😆 Highly recommended place to eat and chill! Also one of my favorites!!!
My go to place for comfort food and delicious meals. The price is okay for those on a budget that wants a delicious meal. I love their tenderloin steak.
It’s been a while since we last visited Qizia and there are a lot of impressive changes. First off, the place renovated and the feel was a bit homey and warm. Vast improvement I must say is their excellent customer service now. The food is superb and their prices are reasonable except for the cakes which I find a bit expensive for the portion size. Definitely will come back!
Ok naman ung ambiance, medyo matagal lang ung pagserve nila ng food. Sana nga lang ung mga Cafe na may wall divider eh may enough staff/s para ma-accomodate ung ibang costumer. The food is good, sa palagay ko naman eh hindi tinipid dahil sa tagal ng pagseserve nila (kasi di ko naman na.try lahat ng food). Maaaring bumalik kami para matikman ibang dishes.
Go to place since 2009. Late closing time, great food and good service :)
Recommended: Crispy Pork Belly, Qizia's Special Pizza (sulit order), Cakes!, Nachos and Cheese Sticks
The new interiors look similar to Pancake House, the vibrant orange color of the booth seating just gives you that nostalgic homey vibe of an old diner.
the improvement is absolutely amazing, the service, the venue and the food, the price of the food on the menu are all affordable, iwill defintely come back for more
My go to place in Marikina. Ive been bringing family and friends to this place same way my dad introduced me to this gem of a place behind a hospital. They have updated the look of the resto but liked the cozy ambience before. It doesnt hinder the fact that i still love their cheese sticks with marinara sauce, qizia pizza (i can eat this all day),beef tenderloin, and their brazo de mercedes is oh so yummy! Price is also on point. You can take a date here and not break the bank! Staff are friendly. Can get a bit crowded and you sometimes have to wait to get a table but its all worth it!
Update:
Please please please always make sure you have cheese sticks! Its such a bestseller that we were surprised you were out of it when we last came in. To think that it was just lunch time then. Other than that we had a good time, yet again!
At first I did not notice the Cafe. It is situated near the emergency of a hospital right infront of it. The place is near Water Nymph events place. The resto is full packed at 12:35noon when my baby and I entered, gladly there were a batch who was already finished when we came so we had the perfect seat. We were seated in their cozy couch. I ordered sausage, mash potato and lettuce combi and my daughter had cordon bleu. It took awhile before the orders were given to us, which is understandable because the resto was fully booked. We had a great meal. The sausage texture was just right for an adult I suggest if you give it to your toddler you peel off the outer portion. Anyway my daughter enjoyed her cordon bleu, it was just right and soft. It has also veggies which is good for her hehe.. We will surely comeback for desserts:) 🙂
Probably one of the most affordable restaurants in Marikina. Our go-to place whenever we feel like eating our comfort foods 😋 we loved the newly renovated place and the feel-good vibe. Food quality is superb especially the pizzas & pastas 😊
Our new favorite place 🧡 We have tried a lot of their menu and did not disappoint us. Super worth it! ✋🏻 Place is cozy. Food is superrrr yumm and very affordable! 🤤🤪 Really a great place to go for a simple dinner. 🤫💖 Everything is just great. 🙂 Must try: Beef Tenderloin, Crispy Pork Belly, Pork Ribs, Blueberry Cheesecake, Qizia’s special. Their beverages are good also. 😛
I have been to this place one too many times — more times that I could count on both fingers and toes.
This is my go-to place for everything — a quick bite, a savory plate of pasta, a hearty rice meal, and many more. QiZia has so much to offer and they are all impeccably tasty!
I keep coming back to this place and I keep recommending it to friends, and basically to whoever would listen to me rave on and on and on.
Recommendations:
Seafood Pasta (white sauce)
Seafood Pesto Pizza
Beef Salpicao
My favorite cafe! Everything on the menu is delicious :) Highly recommended. Wala pa kong natikman na hindi masarap and super accommodating ng staff, asikaso talaga nagpareserve man o hindi. Every week ata kumakain kami dito.
The place is prim and proper. Had a relaxing ambience and they serve good food too. What we ordered here are Pork Ribs, Spicy Shrimp Pasta and Peanut Butter Frappe. Masarap yung Spicy Shrimp, though it's a bit dry. Food here isn't that pricey, actually 500 pesos for 2 person is already enough. All crews are nice and attentive that's already given but one thing though, before you could actually seat, you have to wait outside and have the crew accompany you to an available table to be seated. Since we are first timers, we didn't know that, because the moment we arrived at the doorstep of the resto there was this orange couch and no one was there to accommodate us, we waited for about 5mins kasi di namin alam kung saan kukuha menu 😅 kasi walang crew sa paligid at that time, so what we did, we decided to head on and choose wherever seat there is available and I barged in inside and asked for a menu. Medyo nakakahiya, pero keri lang. Medyo mahirap din hanapin yung place kasi nasa vicinity sya ng ospital mismo, the cafe isn't noticeable on the road, so maybe they could consider having a placard? Or signage outside? For first timers' convenience na rin.
Holy Place. Feels like home. Try their tapsilog and beef tenderloin, very tender. I would recommend all their pastas. Worth its price. Try their pizzas and cakes too.
If you're looking for American dishes that are delicious yet affordable, this is the best place to go.
Best foods in their menu that you can try are: Pastas, Steak in pepper cream sauce, Crispy Pork Belly, Oriental Beef Stew, and many more. Plus, they serve A LOT in just one plate of order.
The resto is open until 12:30am fitted for your midnight cravings. The place was also renovated. It has a good ambiance especially at night. And it's very instagrammable due to its classic interiors.
I highly recommend this place. Babalik-balikan! :)
Love this place, and will definitely go back.
Qizia offers good food at a reasonable price. We ordered Qizia's Special Pizza, Beef Salpicao, and Chicken Cordon Bleau. I have also tried their Tuna Salpicao during my previous visits and I'm just glad that this restaurant does not disappoint.Their serving is big enough for you to get full, though you might want to order extra rice if you are really hungry and want to make the most out of your viand. During my visits, I have observed that they are always full, which only shows that people just love eating here.

The ambiance of the place got better when it was renovated. In addition, they even provided a dedicated smoking area. There is a wide array of choices of entree (chicken, beef, pork, fish, etc.). Price is competitive and servings are of above expectations.
Downside is that their are instances wherein orders may take 15 minutes or more to reach the table.
I am recommending this place and that's all you need to hear. Definitely on my top 10 list to try in Marikina, and that's a big thing. Marikina is a food haven and to be on someone's list of best restos is a big deal. My original grade is a 4, but I'm giving it a 4.5 just to push up its rating because I believe it deserves more attention. This is a budget friendly place and you'll definitely get more than what you pay for.
Detailed Review:
In terms of quality, the food varies around 3 to 4.5. But the price point is just so fair, a little slip in quality won't be too bad. Serving is good.
Pumpkin (3.5/5) P65 and Seafood Chowder (3.75/5) P65 soup - they are decent soups, we liked them. The pumpkin soup was a little dense, probably the most dense pumpkin soup ive had ever. Some people might like it that way, but I like the consistency to be a little thinner. Seafood Chowder was fine to. They could have put more seafood in there, but it's fine.
Qizia's Special (3.25/5) P195 and Crispy Bacon Pizza (3.5/5) P175 Pizza - i kind of expected something from the first one since it's their 'special' pizza, but it lacked umfph. But then again, price was fair so it was still a good deal. The second one is just a typical pizza. But they weren't bad tho. Since it's really affordable, adding pizza from your regular orders will be nice.
Savoury Fish Fillet (4.25/5) P175 - I personally enjoyed this one. Even tho the fish was just cream dory, it was still good. It was indeed savory and will order it again.
Steak with pepper cream sauce (4/5) P190 - to have this kind of food in a good amount of serving with good quality and low price point is definitely a good deal.
Chicken Quesadillas (4.5/5) P135 - this one surprised us! It's more than your typical quesadilla, it could even pass as a pizza. You should try this one.
Pan grilled Porkchop (3.75/5) P155 - it was a good decent pork chop. The serving was good and the pork was really thick. You definitely get more than what you pay for.
Hot Choco (3/5) P65 - the lowest point out of everything. Tho I know i couldn't ask for much since it was just cheap, but I would've ordered something else.
Final thoughts: I would love to come back here. I'll try out new food for sure and I'll bring more friends and family next time!
I would definitely go back for their loaded pizza, Qizia’s special pizza; and after a lot of visit here, I’m pretty sure you’ll crave their crinkles as much as I do
Always a favorite of our family :-) Newly renovated, and new offerings! We had a great brunch last Sunday. We ordered the German franks, sausage mash, and smoked bangus-- tasted these for the first time here. The sausage meals were good, but the smoked fish was just okay. I regretted not ordering my all-time favorite tapa. Anyway, overall a good dining experience, as always.
My favorite.go to.place. this is veryuch near where I live and its affordable. Better if youre in a group because it will come out much affordable. We were 3 when we went here. Food is yummy. We ordered squash soup, qizia special, 1 pasta and beef salpicao.my all time fave is beef salpicao. But when we tried their squash soup, its tasty, creamy and yummy. The pizza is tasty , thin crust is really good. The beef salpicao meat is tender and tasty. The good thing about this place is everything is fresh. I drink a.lot of water so here they have service water. No need to worry. Budget for two is 500
Good food, bad service. Staffs are friendly but they are under staffed. Management should add more staff. Maybe its why they use pay first, so that customers would not leave when they notice the poor service.
You might just see a cadaver while you dine at QuZia Cafe as it is within SDS Medical Center. This probable occurrence already happened to one of my friends who dined here. So on this visit after an outreach in nearby Boys Town, we chose to eat inside.
Like a typical restaurant cafe in the Philppines, QuZia serves anything they wish. We were 9 people in this visit and we had a stretch of dishes and desserts from various cuisines.
We opted to separate the rice from their meals so our team could try everything. On our table we had Chinese style sweet Stir Fried Beef; American cheesy Cordon Blue, Spanish garlic filled Tuna; Filipino sweetened Garlic Squid (cooked well, not chewy); baked savory Dory Fish; reminiscing of home Pork Liempo Sinigang and Seafood Sinigang.
We also Fruity Salad on vinaigrette to jump start our meal here and some Filipino style Italian Pizza to boot. I personally like the crunchy thin crust on our Seafood Pesto and Crispy Bacon Pizzas.
For a unforgettable ending we all loaded up with sugar! We had moist traditional Chocolate Cake; mushy and sweet Brazo de Mercedes; chocolatey yet light Oreo Cheesecake; dense and rich Crinkles; and a flashback flavor Red Velvet Cake, a favorite of many.
Been going here since college, and I still love the place just the same. Tasty and affordable! 💕
Ordered:
Four-cheese pizza - 4.5
Fettuccine Alfredo - 4.5
Grilled Cheese Sandwich - 4.0
Iced Coffee - 4.5
Qizia cafe. A place thatbis near our house that is yummy, convenient and affordable. I have tries their squash soup, something to try. The soup is creamy and really taste likw squash.i tried their beef salpicao, its tender and tasty. The qizia pizza,theybsaid is bestseller is also yummy. It is rhin crust so its really tasty. We also ordered the mozzarella sticks , it has salsa side dish so its great.. I really did come back for their mozza stick.. I recommend that. I love cheese
Over all, the place has nice ambiance to it, flavor of food is good. You will definitely come back. Price is affordable. Not bad for the food. Try it. If for 2 people 400-500 is super sulit na
Food - 5
Ambiance - 5 such a great improvement after the branch’s renovation. Plus, the smoking area is nice
Service - 3 waiters tend to be always chit chatting. Once called it seems like they’re being interrupted. Cashiers (the woman and the bald guy) hate smiling.
Price - 5 fair price, generous serving
This restaurant has been our go-to place since it’s near our house. Almost perfect, but one thing I noticed about this restaurant is the fact that they do not proactively give their customers their receipts. They would only give it to you only if you asked. Such a no no for restaurants that pay taxes... or do they? Hahahahaha
Qizia is my go-to place whenever I crave for a good meal. Everything I've tried on their menu is great! My favorite dishes are Pumpkin Soup, Beef Tapa, Cheese Sticks (must try!), Creamy Cheese Pasta, Seafood Pasta with olive oil, and Red Velvet Cake! ❤
Food taste good and affordable. We went here around 6pm on a Saturday night. The seats inside were all occupied so we had to stay outside. Place is well lit and very spacious. People started to pile up around 7pm. This was my first time to eat here and was surprised to know that we had to pay first at the counter before getting served. I guess i'm not used to the setup when the place isnt a fast food chain. I also like they have a separate area for smoking. Will definitely come back for the food.
Tucked away in the eastern side of the metro, QiZia Cafe will always be worth the drive. I especially love their pizzas, pastas, and cakes. A full and hearty meal every visit is guaranteed.

Ang ayoko lang talaga sa kanila eh yung matagal ang serving time. Yun lang. Pero sa pagkain, binabalikan ko dito yung beef pesto. Kaso nung huling punta ko, masyadong malabnaw yung sauce.Di ko masyadong na-enjoy
This is my favorite restaurant! ⚫️ QIZIA CAFE ⚫️
▪️SDS Medical Center Compound, Katipunan Extension, Concepcion Dos, Marikina City ▪️
▪️Ang cafe na nakita lahat ng milestone ko from College to PRESENT. Si Kuya Kalbs nagwowork parin dyan. Kahit anong pilit ko kumain at gustuhin ang ibang gourmet restaurant, bumabalik padin ako sayo Qizia. Dahil medyo busog pa kami, Qizia's Special lang muna for 195php and Blueberry Cheesecake 120php. Sobrang yum! ▪️
▪️Verdict: 10/ 10- Lahat ng dinadala kong friends dito, binabalik balikan nila to! Tara na! ▪️
One of my favorites restaurants.
Good ambiance. Good and affordable foods. Accessible place.
Halos lahat naorder ko na ata at lahat worth it. 😁
NEWLY RENOVATED ☺
This has been my go to place and I used to go here without dressing up so much since I live nearby but last night I felt underdressed with my "pambahay" attire. I didn't know that the place was newly renovated and it looks so fancy now. Don't get me wrong, I meant it as a compliment. 😄
They had a total make over but the quality of their food is consistent. 👍
Here are few of my favorites in their menu:
✔Seafood Pasta with white sauce
✔Spicy Chicken Wings (See photo below)
✔Beef Salpicao (See photo below)
✔Chicken Quesadillas
✔Cheese Sticks
✔Qizia's Special Pizza
✔Banana Caramel Pie
It was my first time to try their Seafood Chowder last night. I ordered it since my boyfriend's tummy was acting up, he needed to have soup first. It actually tastes good with real seafood on it until I realized that it tastes so much alike with the sauce of their Seafood Pasta. Lol. 🤣
price is affordable. Around P175- P250 per head. Food is very tasty. Pizza is so good.
Service is nice naman, depende sa time ng pagpunta. syempre pag peak hours medyo matagal ang labas ng food, medyo mahirap lang kapag may mga kasama kang bata kase walang nag order take. Ikaw talaga ang pupunta sa counter. Pay as you order, but all good.
A hidden gem 😊 If you love to enjoy excellent food and don't want to hurt your pocket, this is the place for you! Note: place was newly renovated, for a more hip and modern vibe 👍
Nice ambiance. Carrot cake tastes good. Cordon bleau can be shared by two. Staves are accommodating. So many meals to choose from, from pizza to pasta to rice meal and desserts. Tuna melt is simple but i loved the cheese. This place is for the family.
Oh. My. Gosh. My all-time favorite cafe! Been here for more than five times already, I think. I loved everything I've ordered everytime we visit. Pizza is the best! Cheesecakes are mouth-watering! I'm not a pasta person but I can be one when I'm in QiZia 😂 Rice meals are so good and satisfying. Serving is really generous 💕 Really accommodating and friendly staff ⭐Looking forward to our next visit!
Unplanned visit here at QiZia Cafe but WOW! That's a wonderful experience. The parking was nice and spacious, although the place is prone to flood. As for the food and service, it was superb. Very affordable and very delicious. They just got their place renovated and it looks even more stunning than before. I would highly recommend this place specially if you're from Antipolo or Marikina. 😁🍝🍰🍮🍔🍽
Second time this week. First was dinner, now breakfast. Place is just newly renovated. It's quite spacious and I love the indoor booth seating. Food is great and reasonably priced. Ordered my favorite nachos and bacon pesto sandwich. Definitely coming back.
Every time pag pupunta ng Qizia... hindi pwedeng walang OREO CHEESECAKE na kasama.. foods are awesome and worth it talaga lalo na kung petsa de peligro..
Update: kaka renovate lang ng Qizia 🤓
Searching for a right resto to celebrate an ocassion? Qizia may be a fit for your tight budget.
Offering quality food less than 200 pesos is awesome! Specially the Seafood Pasta! I also love their Beef Tenderloin! 😍💪🏼👌🏼
Must-try: Beef Salpicao, Seafood Pasta, Green Mango and Mango Shake, and their best-seller Brazo de Mercedes!!! Their pizzas are okay too. :)
The price of the food is affordable also.
Hi when I had my birthday last june 17, 2017, I invited my three friends to look out for a restaurant where we could have lunch together to celebrate my birthday. Yes of course, it has been my treat for them since its mine. Haha. Qizia Cafe was fortunately the restaurant that they had chosen to go to. I told them "ok lets try..." and when we arrived there inside place was so serene, I mean to say that one must have to go directly to a table to where you want to stay and call for assistance. No further review uhmm just want to say, excellent preparation of menus. I had mine a memorable event. #sumptuousfoods #thumbsup
Great place to go for a simple family dinner! Food tastes great and the place is clean! Serving size can improve. Service can be a bit slow at times too.
Was inlove with this place because of it's affordable food and very delicous. Tho the place is beside a hospital nonetheless the place and food is great. A must try in Marikina.
Fave resto in Marikina!! Binabalik-balikan ng family namin. Sulit yung bayad. Eto yung resto na sure kami busog at satisfied kami sa pagkain!! Weird lang nasa tabi ng hospital haha
Qizia is one of our favorite restos in the city. Lahat ng food nila masarap. And the price is also affordable. Here are our top bets: Beef Salpicao, Qizia Special Pizza, and Brazo de Mercedes.
If you're not from the area, it would be hard for you to look for this place alone. Unless you ask people around. I was able to experience eating here because of my boyfriend. He's the one who took me here. We ordered #QiZiasSpecial for pizza, #SeafoodPasta, and #Nachos. We were fully stuffed with what he had in spite of having a large appetite, we were really full that time. The place was neat. Other guests and the staff respects your private space. I guess its pretty famous because when we were about to leave, which I guess was dinner time (7pm onwards *et), the place was already full.
I love their food and I haven't experienced a mishap in their service during the times I ate here. I love their Margherita pizzaa and their Shrimp with Sweet Chili Garlic Sauce (if I remember it correctly). I love their shakes.
Their beef tapa, Arrabiatta and Brazo de Mercedes are da bomb!! 💣😂😋 Everything in their menu is a must try!!! I've been here often. 💛💛💛
After a long hiatus from posting i find that there's a need to post this hahaha
Located inside a hospital compound, it would be cool to think that they get their hospital food from Qizia. 😁
Place is cozy with nice chairs. They have an airconditioned and an outdoor dining area. The table that we got was inside the A/C area but damn it was really warm. So on a cool raining night I think it might be better to sit outside. They could improve on their ventilation coz it's a bit suffocating.
Service was quick, the soup came first. For me the onion flavor was a bit too much. Then came the cheese sticks (according to the waiter they're made of mozzarella), was really good but i don't think they used real mozza. Then came the pizza and pasta, tried the seafood pasta and the spicy shrimp, loved it both. The spicy shrimp was a little bit salty though. The Qizia's special uses a really thin crust, kinda like Pita bread. The grilled chicken had a thicker crust. Both flavors were good. Tried their short oders: cordon bleu, tenderloin, salpicao and tropical porkribs. They also didn't disappoint. All were really flavourful!
Qizia surely didn't disappoint. Will surely be back again!
Went out and about Marikina and found a cool place at the back of SDS Hospital. It looked like a mamihouse or something sitting beside their emergency clinic of some sort.. But wait till you get inside, fully airconditioned with friendly staffs, and the best of all, their food. Total comfort after a very long drive.
Pumpkin soup is good
Tenderloin is meatily tasty
Carbonara is better than my version
4cheese pizza is okay
Beef salpicao tasted like it came out of a souschef's hands
Chicken quesadilla is a must try and must eat.
Best of all, sum up all these with mango shake, bottomless iced tea and frappe capucchino... All in for only 1thousand pesos.
One of my favorite!!!! Qizia Cafe!!! The pizza is really good (qizias special),the rice meals and pastas. If you are looking for salad they also have it also a thumbs up for the taste. Thats all 10/10 for me!!!! :)))
The foods are great and cheap! Location nit so great its behind SDS hospital and parking is hard. I ordered quesadilla, pesto and nachos all by myself and i didn't have regrets i finished it all and they are all so good and cheap! I wanted to come back for the pizaa though
A hole in the wall. This cafe is located at the back of SDS Hospital in SSS Marikina. They serve good food from appetizers to pasta, sandwiches and even the pastries are a spot on! The only downside is their service, it's way too long. And for you to pay 5php for an extra basil for the pasta? Oh common. And the staffs are not that accommodating.
One of my favorite place. Great for call center agents, joggers/runner and other morning peeps coz it opens as early as 7 am, and they serve breakfast meals. Qizia's Special is a MUST TRY. Good for 2 to 3 person. And its less than P200 (i think its 175). My Personal Favorite: Pan Grilled Pork Chop.
Other Must Try:
Creamy Seafood Pasta (White Sauce)
Seafood Chowder Soup
Better be there earlier if you're looking for a table inside the resto! Tho I admire staying outside especially on evenings since it's cozier 💕 Food served is great, yet affordable!! It's just the serving time that takes too long since there's so many customers. Try it! Definitely worth it ❤️️
Qizia is our go-to restaurant for merienda and dinner as well. Ample parking space since it is shared with SDS hospital. Restaurant is a little small considering that they are gaining more customers now. The price is value for money.
Family favorites are:
Pasta - seafood marinara, carbonara, spicy shrimp
Pizza - four cheese
Soup - pumpkin soup with generous servings and very creamy
Appetizers - spicy chicken wings
Rice meals - char-grilled squid, pan grilled chicken and chicken cordon bleu
Staff are nice but sometimes inattentive especially if there are lots of customers. Hope they can have an expansion for their restaurant to accomodate more customers.
We went to Marikina for breakfast! Qizia Cafe is one of the famous breakfast places in Marikina. Most of the dishes are Italian - pizza and pasta. They also have filipino meals. So hard to decide what to order because there's a lot of choices. If you love anything pesto, I suggest you try the pesto seafood pizza and beef pesto pasta. It's good. Also, I like the spicy pasta that we ordered. I just find it a bit salty but it's very tasty. The tapa is also delicious but it has a sweet taste. They also have cakes. Don't forget to try the oreo cheesecake! Choose it over the red velvet. The serving of the food here is good for sharing and the price is also affordable.
I like going to Marikina because the restaurants are not that overrated.
This is our go-to restaurant/ cafe. If we couldn't find anywhere to go Qizia will always be our #1 choice.
All food are nice as well as coffee.
This is my favorite place when Im craving for some good food. This is my go to place . I highly recommend this place and I recommend the beef pesto pasta and the spicy shrimp pasta cause its the bomb! Anyway, I recommended this resto to my family friends and workmates cause its the best place to hang out. I like the renovations that they did on the place. Best spot to sit at night with barkadas is outside bigger chairs and bigger tables. I rated it high because its the place to visit, good food, nice place and good price!! 😊
definitely one of my favorite comfort food places in Marikina. if you're looking authentic pastas and pizzas, this is not the place for you. their food is Filipinized bastardization of famous dishes but they did it so well I'm not complaining. I keep coming back for their seafood pasta and Brazos de Mercedes 😍
It was my first time to go here last night. I was with my friend who always go here and said that they have good food. The cafe is inside the compound of a hospital. The place is homey and has an area outside for the people who wants some fresh air.
What we had:
Tuna pesto - it was good, the pasta that they used was angel hair. It comes with free bread.
Shrimp pasta - it was also good and so spicy which I liked a lot.
Chicken wings - also good. The chicken was not fried, it has a garlic cream sauce which compliments the sweetness of the chicken.

The only downside is that they don't have a wifi.
Will definitely go back here.
QiZia has always been my go-to place for as long as I can remember. It witnessed a lot of great (and sad) memories in my life.
I've tried every pasta, appetizer, pizza and short order in the menu.
(I now hope you can imagine how many times I've been here)
With all that under my belt, my go-to dishes are:
* Beef Salpicao - One of the best salpicao dishes I have ever tried!
* Seafood Pesto Pizza - All of their pizzas are great! I can't honestly choose one. I'm just a big fan of pesto that's why this certain flavor has been my go-to.
* Cheese sticks - More than the cheese sticks, it's the dip that I really look forward to tasting 😍
* Nachos - It's filling and I love how their garlic cream sauce goes perfectly with the cheese dip.
And my favorite combo (aka the things that order almost every time I'm in QiZia)
* Spicy Shrimp Pasta - MY FAVORITE PASTA. Can someone just hand me over this dish recipe???
* Cafe Mocha - FAVORITE COFFEE. Way better than any Starbucks coffee I had!
Always been me and my husband's go-to place for regular breakfast and monthsary breakfasts! Food is good. Personal fave is the Tuna Pesto and Oreo Cheesecake!
I thought i'll be disappointed coz its located behind the hospital, but i was really surprised! Taste is really good. Friendly on the pocket. We'll definitely be going back.
