"Build-your-own pho, garlic noodles, rice bowls, salad and banh mi are on the menu at Mr. East Kitchen, a new fast-casual Vietnamese spot in SoMa at 276 Fifth Street. In the mornings, Mr. East operates more like a standard American cafe with an espresso bar and avocado toast in a minimalist space full of pale wood. And, yes, there’s boba." - Janelle Bitker
