Love it here. I purchased some cherries $4.19 per pound and it was super fresh, plumped, and…read moredeliciously sweet. This small grocery store located in Vietnam Town San Jose is very convenient for grab and go. It's not a full blown grocery store, but it certainly has tasty snacks and small items to pick from. Clean and organized too. Snacks and beverages are all good. Fruity ice cream/unique flavors and fruity jelly drinks are all good. Selections are excellent with good variety. Cashier and owner are friendly people and helpful. Small businesses like this one holds good value to the community. It's a great addition to Vietnam Town. No doubt. I also purchased a very fresh good looking Mexican yellow papaya $1.49 per pound each and fresh peeled Thai jackfruits $6.50 per container. So sweet and so fresh! Wow Fruits & More for sure. It's not cheap for fresh fruits here, but everything tasted very sweet and good. There's also a $0.25 per bag fee if you need a bag. The paper bag that I got was tall and huge. Small packaged snacks and sando/sandwiches are definitely worth it here. Cute animal shaped dessert cakes and steak shaped frozen desserts too. Overall, the place is worth future visits again. Casual and small spot. Accepts credit cards. Must love.

I'm finally getting a hang of navigating and driving around Viet Town without losing it…read more And, it only took a decade! What I love about Viet Town is the extensive variety of regional Viet food and drinks that you cannot find anywhere in the Bay. And, there's always a new shop opening.... Like Wow Fruits & More (located next to Trung Nguyên Legend Coffee and across from Arisan Tea & Coffee House). Looking for the "viral" ice creams? They have it all...the AZN fruit ice cream bars, yam ice cream, french fry ice cream, fried chicken drumstick ice cream, and the fried chicken burger ice cream. Currently, the "fast food" inspired ice creams are only available at Wow Fruits and Hankook (Sunnyvale). The fried chicken burger ice cream ($4.99) is salted butter ice cream patty (low key tastes like salted caramel) covered in crushed cereal and a slice of mochi cheese between a dry burger bun. Tried it out of curiosity and it's a one and done. Kids will love it tho! Gimmicky viral items aside, the reason to visit Wow Fruits is for the great selection of fruits from around the world: - Durian, and lots of it. - Green Dragon Apples from Japan - Strawberries from Japan - Pink and Green Mangoes from Vietnam - Grapes from Korea (Shine Muscat) - Pinkglow Pineapple - Persimmon - Rambutan - And much more...AZN snacks like Turtle Chips (elote and yangnyeom that can't be found at Korean markets), Success Import Cakes (pork floss, banana, egg tart), jelly drinks, etc. The shop was clean and organized. Everything looked fresh and pristine, and there were samples available. Prices were reasonable. Damaged items from transit were discounted. The owner was super nice and even offered ice packs for the fruits. CC's and tap to pay available. If you're grubbin' in East Man Jose, stop by and support this small family owned business!

I stopped by Cleats to pick up an order yesterday. They are located near the intersection of…read moreMeridian Ave and Hamilton. They have their own little parking lot that is separate from the other shops in that center. Clean Eats is restaurant that offers a variety of health foods. You can order online, call ahead or order in person. You can even have your meals delivered to you. They have convenient pre-prepped meals and cater to special diets like vegetarian, pescatarian, vegan, keto, gluten free and paleo. The inside of the store is clean and tidy but very small. They have outdoor seating for you to enjoy your meal there. I ordered a pork Chili Verde with rice and beans as well as a breakfast burrito. The pork Chili Verde was so delicious as well as the Spanish rice and beans. The burrito was packed with eggs, potatoes and turkey sausage and came with a side of salsa. My husband really enjoyed his burrito for breakfast. It was very filling. I love that they list the macros and nutrients, ingredients and instructions for heating on each package meal. These meals are so convenient. And you can pick and choose your proteins, carbs, and veggies to your barrier. All ingredients are freshly displayed behind the clear plastic shield where you place your order. They are so many options to pick from. The employee working there was very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be returning to try other items.

I've tried every diet in the book. I've even counted macros before, did a carb cycle, tracked my…read morewater intake... you name it. I was still eating pretty healthy and was active during the pandemic but since I took a promotion at work, everything went downhill. I developed insomnia, skipped the gym due to work, started binge eating... there are days that I did not want to get up. As I slowly work my way back to my old self, I stopped by here recently to get some food for myself w/o guilt. I do enjoy the keto pizza. I just wished the macros are available. The meatballs were good, but I'd recommend dipping them in hot sauce, zero-sugar sauce, or their Clean Eats' condiments to kick it up a notch. They're not dry but since I was trying not to consume simple carbs, I ate it plain like that. The salad was fresh, very yummy. The parking is small and the intersection this place is located gets rather busy during the rush. If you know what you are ordering, suggest ordering for pickup to save time. I love how it's like a healthy Chipotle w/ all things protein-related (protein shakes, protein chips, protein cookies, protein candy, etc.). I love having this place as an option when I cannot decide what to eat or if I don't have time to cook.

You can customize the spice level exactly how you like it, and they always pack it carefully so nothing leaks.

Food: A Mi Vit Thiem / Vegetarian Duck Noodle: the broth stood out as it should, had a nice savory essence that paired well with their noodles and fixings that brought a nice overall texture to dish.

We got seated right away. Food came out quick too. Definitely will be back to try out other dishes. - John

This was my first time at Green Lotus in San Jose since the one off of Bascom closed down. I was…read morevery surprised to see the exact same menu at the San Jose location versus the Bascom location. I got takeout this particular day and the stirfry I wanted they didn't have any more of that style, but the lady said there was a similar one that was better for takeout. I forget which one she recommended but I ordered that one as well as the mango salad and the Vegetarian Pho. Once I got to my aunts house and set up our lunches, I found out that the Pho was cold. I'm not too sure if that was due to me getting takeout or if they had not heated anything up that day. They didn't tell me anything ahead of time so I think that's a little odd to me. You would serve someone cold soup, even though they want to takeout at least without telling them first. Hee Nevertheless, the mango salad, stirfry dish, and Pho all tasted delicious once everything was heated up to the right temperature! We loved our food and I am happy. This location is still around!!
