It wasn't particularly light and fresh and it was on the fatty side and little more fish sauce made it a heavy seasoned broth, not bad, but just not necessarily traditional.

Pretty good overall. The spring rolls are delicious with the peanut sauce…read more The pho was really good- I like that they had all the stuff in it including tripe and tendon (many places don't go that authentic!)

Five stars, and this one's an honorable mention that somehow turned into a regular habit…read more I'm talking about K-Pop at the Happy Valley food carts, and yeah, there's a reason we keep circling back like it owes us money. You ever go somewhere thinking you'll just grab a quick bite, and next thing you know you're planning your return before you've even finished chewing? That's this place. What I like is they don't box themselves in. You've got Korean, Hawaiian, and a little mix of everything going on. I lean Hawaiian most days, something about it just hits right, especially when you're not trying to go all in. Sometimes you're just grabbing food, maybe bringing something back for later, pacing yourself like a responsible adult. This is that kind of spot. It works with you, not against you. And here's the thing, I used to write those safe reviews. "It's cute. Nice service." That tells nobody anything. That's background noise. This place deserves better than that. This is a spot you actually remember. Friendly people, solid food, and a consistency that turns a casual stop into a routine. Happy Valley's already a great area, so you're starting off on the right foot just being there. But if you're walking into that food cart pod and wondering where to go, I'm telling you straight up, this is one of the top choices. No overthinking it. Take my word for it, or don't. Either way, you'll end up here eventually.

This has become my favorite cart in the Happy Valley pod. The menu is an interesting mix of Korean,…read moreJapanese, and Hawaiian, which is nice to be able to mix it up each visit. My go-tos are the Shoyu or Teriyaki chicken plates, the Kalua Pork Plate, or the Bibimbap. My only do-betters are that the teriyaki chicken can sometimes be dry, and I wish both the chicken dishes came with a sauce. They do have sriracha packets if you ask. The plates come with rice, a small lettuce salad and dressing (could use a little more of that sometimes), and a mac salad with pretty simple black pepper seasoning. It's a good amount of food for the price. I also really appreciate, and choose to visit K-Bop, because they use the compostable clamshell containers, and not the wasteful single-use plastic like so many others. Recommended if you're stopping by his cart pod.

We've had several meals at Pho Bar now and every meal is delicious…read more Our absolute favorite is the bahn mi sandwiches. We alternate between the chicken and the pork because both are so good! We also love the pho here. The broth is so flavorful and the meats and noodles are all good quality. They've even added soy sauce to their condiment selection! We love the spicy sauce they serve at the table as well. It gives the pho the perfect added spice. They've added a selection of desserts to choose from now. We recently tried the creme brûlée and it was very good. The staff is always very friendly and attentive. They will check in at tables regularly. It's a clean restaurant with nice decor and seating. Give them a try. There's sure to be something on the large menu for everyone.

However, I was blown away at this place. Located in a food truck area, there are quite a few other spots nearby to grab a boba drink or snack with friends, but minimal seating. When I went, I just got the food for to-go and ate it at home! The woman working at the cashier was so sweet and patient with us. We ordered a shrimp pad kee mao and a shrimp pad thai. They took 15 minutes to be ready and smelled incredible on the ride home. While it may not look like a lot in the picture, trust me, it is. The portions are so generous and you are sure to get your money's worth. The noodles were mouth-watering. They were so saucy and flavorful, and the perfect chewy texture. This spot does not skimp out on the shrimp too and the vegetables are cooked to the perfect softness. Absolutely an amazing spot and I still think about it a lot haha.

It's hard to find one Thai's restaurant that has majority of dishes done right and consistent with taste profiles. So at the moment, I have to settle for specific spots for specific Thai's dishes I crave for instead of the Thai place! I was skeptical at first with I first saw avocado listed on the menu with the green curry. Now I'm hooked after eating it multiple times now. I definitely recommend it! At $17 and come with a bowl of steamed white rice, it's more than a bargain for a satisfying and filling meal for this economy! The taste is consistent on point and delicious. What I love is the packed and generous offering of vegetables: fresh avocado, fresh Chinese eggplant, and canned bamboo shoots! You can pick your own protein. I prefer tofu after had it with chicken, beef, and shrimp. Thai's iced coffee $5 is standard for its typical profile. Prompt and efficient service. Two benches for outdoor sitting.

I was really craving teriyaki tonight and my friend recommended this place to me…read more It is a great find! I was impressed with the options they had, much more than the typical chicken and rice plates you find at most teriyaki restaurants. I opted for a combo plate. The food was all really great! I took a star off for 2 reasons. The food was a bit salty (coming from someone who enjoys salty food). And the salad was literally just salad mix from a bag with some dressing. It would be nice for some extra effort for the salad or other vegetable options.
