This place reminds me of a fast food Chinese restaurant. Only it’s Vietnamese food. Still on my quest to try different bahn mi Vietnamese sandwiches, I ventured to Summer. I got the grilled pork bahn mi and added an egg to it for extra, grilled pork chop over rice, chicken popcorn, or what looks like chicken popcorn, and their summer rolls. Out of all the dishes, the popcorn chicken was the most flavorful. Chicken is tender even though fried and it was juicy. It’s a great snack alone or with rice. The sandwich was mediocre.

There is one that I absolutely hate though: the Classic Iced Rice. Trust me on this one, the extra dollar for the Milk Tea Iced Rice is soo worth it. I very rarely trash food but the Classic Iced Rice was too sweet and extremely artificial tasting in a way that truly can not be salvaged. The milk tea one though is amazing and the perfect...

Before we found Summer, we usually went another place which was little far a way from my house. Now we are very happy with Summer. There is a lot closer to my house. The food is awesome, too. Inside of restaurant is very clean and staffs are kind. When we requested delivery, it takes usually within 15 mins. Sooo fast!!! I love that part a lot..haha. For rice noodles, you can choose spicy levels, mind, midium, and hot, and also, choose a variety of topping menus, fish ball, ramp, beef, vegetables, etc... I hightly recommed this place and...
