Good food and friendly service - Edit
Good service and delicious food. We had the Pho Tofu and the Pho Bo that were very tasty. We also had the cheesecake and flan (we at too quickly and don’t have a chance to picture). Both were exceptionally delicious! And can I just say that their water that infused with whatever deliciousness was very refreshing!

As a gluten free vegan, I could eat anything! - Edit
The owner came out and talked to everyone in the restaurant. Everything is gluten free and vegan and organic and so so good! I had a hard time choosing and the waitress suggested her favorite, glass noodles and I was pleasantly surprised.

Good food - Edit
We ordered the kung pao rice plate. One with venison and the other with beef. Both were good. Finished the evening with some crème brullee, which was really good. Even the fruit infused water was a step up from other places that just put a cucumber or lemon wedge, with a mix of five ingredients.

We have been coming here for the past 10 months to explore their wholesome, scratch-made-in-house menu. Trang is wonderfully intuitive, always pointing us and whoever we bring in the right direction for recommendations.

Fresh food. - Edit
Very very inexpensive natural fresh food, it was all very good, I even took some food for later. I will really let people know of this location, it is very good.
Read moreYou might have to specify no egg, though because in the fried rice they put egg.
Since the changes in ownership prices are pretty high. It's still really good and highly recommend.

Authentic Vietnamese - Edit
What a place! We loved having lunch here. The food tasted exactly like we remember it from having visited Vietnam. The baguette for the banh mi sandwich was especially impressive as it was gluten free (like everything else!). We couldn’t tell at all. The desserts were also amazing. Crème brûlée and cheesecake were some of the best ones we’ve tried for sure. Service was super kind and very friendly. We also appreciated the water refills! It’s not the cheapest place but we would gladly dine here again.

Excellent All Vegan Vietnamese - Edit
Came down to SD for the weekend and didn’t want burgers and junk food. Opened up happy cow and gave this place a shot. Everything was amazing. Huge menu, we stuck to mostly appetizers so we could try many things. Customer service was top notch. Water and tea constantly refilled. Will definitely be back!
