Cool cafe with pretty mid food…read more The ambiance inside is really relaxing; plenty of comfortable seating with plenty of plants around to make a warm and inviting space. The cafe is attached to a store, but that doesn't really affect the cafe all that much. The tablecloths used have a tendency to slide around very easily. We got the tempe blt panini and tempeh Ruben panini with their fries. The fries and ketchup were the best tasting item. You can add extras to the sandwiches, but that gets pretty pricey pretty fast. I added on avocado for $2, which was left off my sandwich so be sure to check that your food is correct. They did give me a small cup of avocado when I went up to the front, but I unfortunately did not notice it was missing until I had already eaten half of my sandwich. The food itself was a bit greasy. Not too overwhelming, but enough that it affected the meal. The sandwiches are pretty small, but filling enough for a lunch sized portion. Beyond food, everything else is self service (water, napkins, utensils). Not bad unless you have limited mobility, then it will be difficult to maneuver around the tables to the small cramped corner that everything else is located. When a gentleman asked the staff if they would bring him a fork (needed assistance walking), the staff only pointed again where the utensils were located before walking away.

Super welcoming atmosphere and very spacious inside for dine-in. Super affordable and great portions! The gentleman and lady that works there were so kind, informative, and sweet! They made my experience 10x better! The gentleman answered all the questions me and my husband had. I have some food allergies and I was not sure the house sauce had anything I was allergic to and the gentleman was kind enough to provide me the ingredients list to ensure I could eat it. I ordered The Ha Long Bay (grilled beef) as did my husband. Absolutely fire!

I'm disappointed that the French bread barely had any crunch to my sandwich although I saw them "toast" it, it was more warmed up than toasted. Any real Vietnamese bahn mi would pride themselves on homemade bread and this definitely was not homemade. I didn't get the best taste of the pate but instead the mayo has a cilantro twist to its flavor. I don't think I would go out of my way to seek this sandwich out again. I think the boba is a better option here.

We ordered the indian burger - vada pav (highly recommend & delicious), chicken rice bowl (tasty), chicken bombay roll (indian burrito with chicken - nice flavors and huge) along with their gun powder fries (amazing). While I liked all their dishes their chicken bombay roll had way too much rice but had good flavors. It was tasty just a little too much of rice imo. I reduced a star for 2 reasons - 1. This place isnt cheap 2. They change their food truck location which is okay but their online order via Uber Eats does not work. Atleast when I was trying for 2 days it said the food truck is not available while they actually were in operation. They would not answer their phone call and we had to locate their food truck to place our bulk order for a large group. Hence reduced the star. All in all I would order back from here but hope they figure out why Uber Eats or Postmates or delivery.com were unable to process any online order even when they were around changing locations in Olympia. Dont have the bandwidth to chase them on the streets of Olympia tbh.

I really hate to leave bad reviews especially when the service was good. But the bahn mi sandwiches…read morewe got were the worst i've ever had. The pork wasn't grilled, it tasted like it was microwaved, there was no flavor at all, the veggies were limp, there was no jalapeño or anything and no Vietnamese mayo, the only good part was the bread. We ordered three sandwiches, one for each of us and one for our son. We just shared the 1, and gave most of that to our dog. We brought the other 2 home. My son took a bite and couldn't eat any more of it. And he eats everything lol I absolutely hate wasting food and money like this. I was really, really looking forward to a bahn mi sandwich. I'm having oral surgery in a week and won't be able to eat them for a very, very long time, maybe never again. We live in Aberdeen and were in town for a doctor's appointment, and our usual spot is closed on Thursdays. So I found this place on yelp. Huge disappointment. And I'm bummed that I have to leave this review because the service was great. The gentleman at the counter, who took our order and cooked our food was super friendly and nice. And maybe the other food there is good, but if you're looking for a bahn mi, go somewhere else. It was literally the worst we've had.

After the…read morefirst bite I was immediately overrun by the taste of chemicals.( You are supposed to use food handler's gloves, NOT medical gloves as they are nitrile and neoprene and that seeps into the food.) I returned to the booth and handed the food back to the woman at the register and informed her of the issue. As I asked for a refund she promptly rolled her eyes, turned around and ignored me. I received no refund. I am on disability and this was to be the ONE time I could enjoy a bit of a splurge for food as it was to be a summer holiday treat. Worst $20 I have ever spent.

Delicious, healthy food and friendly service! I can't complain :)…read more I was in the area for errands and the name of the restaurant made me want to try out the food here. I went inside to place an order. Although initially vacant at first, the space was quickly occupied by following customers lining up after my arrival. One of the employees appeared to be taking out the trash while the other greeted me and helped me with my order when I arrived. There were various options for ordering, but I decided to go with the nori wrap. You can select a customized option or go with one of their premade choices, which lists all the ingredients inside. I was feeling seafood so I went with the Seahawk. The employee asked me if I wanted everything with it, and I asked to just sub one of the sauces with the Chipotle sauce. The portions are definitely huge and worth the pricing, because she had to double wrap my order just so it would all fit and wouldn't fall out. To pair with the nori wrap, I also ordered the original miso soup, which comes with the usual tofu and seaweed but is on the sweeter side compared to what I'm used to. I personally like it sweeter but if you don't, I probably wouldn't order it. I don't often crave healthy food, but it was fairly filling and I had a good experience, so I'll be back to try out MiSo again!

I do enjoy ahi and poke, however the ahi on the line was completely uncovered. In addition, the serving scoop handle was inside the stainless steel container which is not sanitary and screams the potential for food borne illnesses. I did have edamame added. My husband only wanted the bulgogi steak, brown rice and cucumbers with soy sauce on the side. They don't carry cucumbers anymore. I tried ordering a bottle of Pure brand unsweetened tea, and they only carry the sweetened version. Then, I went to get chopsticks and napkins, but the napkin dispenser was bone dry. The portions were large. I enjoyed the flavor and combined textures of my meal. I could only eat about a 1/4 of the bowl, and was full. My husband said the bulgogi smelled good, but he only ate a bite and put it aside. He did not care for it, saying it tasted like "fake meat." I asked if he wanted chicken or a different protein option, and he declined. I can see myself trying Miso again. My husband no. But for the restaurant to be completely vacant when I entered, attention to food safety and detail should be a much higher priority. Edit after the owner's response. The entire serving utensil was inside the uncovered poké stainless steel container. Any raw seafood must be stored properly. It must must be at a safe temperature and covered. An entire serving utensil (handle included) should never be stored inside the serving dish of raw ahi tuna. I was a waitress with a required food handler's permit prior to being a surgical/trauma/cardiothoracic and neurosurgical intensive care Registered Nurse. I have been an RN for over 3 decades. I am an honest Christian and a professional. I do not lie. In retrospect, I should have submitted video evidence of your food line yesterday, as I feel you doubting my concerns that you "are unfamiliar with." Taking your reply into place, I will take my business to Zen Ramen where I am respected.
