| - Looks can be decieving, because I wouldn't expect a café like this could create a niche on a Spring Mtn. Rd because of the odd location. So to my surprise, my sister Marlene and I had a pleasant experience. I came across a few posts here and initially I didn't want to check it out. However, my sister (fellow Yelper too) convince me to try it out.
Upon entering, we were greeted immediately and felt welcome, because the cashier/host ask if it was our first time. She went over the Menu with us and explained the various option and popular items that she recommended to us. We end up ordering a Chicken Pesto Panini, Smoked Brisket Banh Mi, Parmesan Garlic Fries to share. For drinks, we got a Vietnamese Iced Coffee and Mangonada.
The presentation is simple but straightforward, However, everything was really good! Especially the bread, crispy and soft in texture. Paired well with the Chicken Pesto and Smoked Brisket. The special sauce in both sandwiches was flavorful with a balanced amount of spices. It was a Garlic-like taste but it didn't overpower the other ingredients in each sandwiches. The Parmesan Garlic Fries were amazing! Especially when paired with the Garlic dipping sauce that was suggested to us. Drinks were delicious; the Vietnamese Iced Coffee was just right and the Mangonada had a delicious taste because it had a component of Passion Fruit, which gave it an Asian twist.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to others. It was like having Vietnamese inspired food with modern infusion mixed with SoCal culture in a comforting way type of experience!
FYI: The cashier/host that assisted us, is the owner. Her name is Nancy and is originally from Orange County. We had a great conversation with her and learned about her inspiration to open her own restaraunt. Nancy is related to Vanessa, her Sister who is the owner of Pho Bosa.
