Always the best since 1999!!!

Today we stopped in for a to-go order of Shrimp Fresh rolls (#11) Vegan Fresh Rolls w/tofu (#90) and Spicy lemon grass tofu with rice noodles (#77). These were made fresh while I waited in only a few minutes.
Mai was there to greet me as she has been over the decades. Her sweet smile and kind personality is a breath of fresh air from so many chain type restaurants. This business is still family owned by the same original owners.
The food was wonderful. As I said, made fresh and tasted it. Quality and quantity was perfection!
Nice open dining room if you chose to eat in.
Try Bobo Cafe on Palm Ave. You will not be disappointed! I promise.

How is this Vietnamese food? The server was nice, the restaurant itself is dated and just OK. We really wanted to like it, but we...
Read moreMeh… I mean I love Vietnamese anywhere, but this was unimpressive, especially when there’s another awesome one down the street! They should step up their game. Place is outdated and feels a little unclean an unattended. Food was good, but the allover feeling I got was “ Skimpy.” From the meat that they spread out on top to look like more, to the hesitation to bring out sauces.. to the watered down soap in the bathroom that just gave you a feeling you were asking for too much, but if they gave it to you to begin with you wouldn’t have to ask!! I’ll stick to my...
