Rice and Spoon Vietnamese Cuisine is a hidden gem that offers delicious Vietnamese fare. The pho is a standout, with a flavorful broth that sets it apart from other Vietnamese restaurants, although some customers noted that it can be a bit oily and greasy on top. The classic sandwich, or banh mi, remains a highlight, featuring perfectly toasted bread for easy chewing, though some reviews mention the meat can be dry and chewy. The spring rolls are refreshing, especially when paired with the peanut sauce, and the clay pot and grilled chicken entree receive praise from diners. One customer enjoyed the bun rieu, noting the clear and tasty broth, although it was lacking the tomato flavor typically expected. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that food comes out promptly. The restaurant is very clean and has a cozy atmosphere, although some feel it could use a bit of sprucing up. The use of tablets for ordering alongside physical menus adds a modern touch. Rice and Spoon is a reliable choice for authentic and satisfying Vietnamese cuisine, making it a great spot to gather with friends after exploring the nearby Coyote Hills Regional Park. Overall, it is highly recommended and will likely be added to many customers' rotation of go-to restaurants.
