A little spice, rice, and chicken make up this customer favorite that is available in a cup, bowl, or as a side item. Not sure what to pair it with? How about a yummy bacon cheddar burger or a General Sam’s Sandwich! Whether you dip, sip or mix; the Bob Marley soup is not something to pass up.

This Vietnamese restaurant primarily sells pho, a popular Vietnamese soup, perfect for warming you up on a chilly day. With more than ten mouth-watering pho noodle soups packed with fresh ingredients like broth, herbs and noodles, Pho Little Saigon is the perfect spot to indulge in international flavors. We highly recommend a bowl of their delicious Shrimp Pho or their Pho with Flank (steak).

More of a spicy Thai fan? Then you can’t miss their spicy-Thai chicken salad sandwich. What makes Stacked even more unique is that all of their signature sandwiches can be salads! For soup choices, rest assured you will never be disappointed. Chicken enchilada, red pepper gouda and potato are just a few of the rotating choices at this hot sandwich spot!
