    We went back to Colfax Bistro today. We were greeted immediately, sat at a table with menus and offered water. I got the Yellow Curry (Chicken) - Carrot, potato, onion, yellow curry, coconut milk, basil, served w/ steamed rice). My daughter got the Vegetarian Vietnamese Sandwich (Banh Mi) - mayonnaise, pickled carrot, cucumber, house sauce, jalapeño, cilantro. Vermicelli Noodle Salad - Stir-fried Veggies & Tofu (Rice noodle, lettuce, cucumber, bean sprouts, mint, pickled carrot & daikon, green onion, onion flake, dressing). Everything was delicious as always!

    Absolutely love this place. We had just driven 3 hours here and were so hungry. HIT THE SPOT Definitely try the Tom yum soup if you like a spicy and flavorful broth full of good protein and veggies. And you really can't go wrong with the pho. Amazing service as well. And the music is so vibey

    The food is super good and very clean. The veggies were crisp and all had very good flavor. The service is quick and friendly. The inside is clean and simply cute. Stopped in from our trek from Reno to Santa Rosa and I am glad we did. Reasonably priced. Really enjoyed our meal. Thank you.

    Walked in from the foggy weather and ordered Home-made noodle soup. The broth had nice depth to it…read moreand enough bok coy , chicken, beef, shrimp etc. noodles was silky soft. . When I see Singapore chow mein on menu Is a plus. I love the curry spice & stir-fry noodle taste! Cordial staff- waited on me as a solo diner instantly. One thing I did notice was they didn't offer tea which is usually customary at Chinese restaurants. It's just an observation ( not a critique). Love all the original work of art on the walls. I felt like I was in someone's tasteful livingroom. Looking forward to returning after another hike in Auburn.

    FOOD - Walnut Shrimp: battered shrimp with candied walnuts…read moreover broccoli. The shrimp wasn't crunchy enough. Walnut shrimp is my go-to when I have Chinese food so I'm a little bit of a walnut shrimp snob. This was pretty mid. 3.5/5 - Mongolian Beef: beef with onions, red bell peppers, and bok choy. The flavor was pretty good. The beef was tender enough. 3.75/5 - Orange Chicken combo: orange chicken with chow mein, and egg roll. The chicken wasn't dry but not very tender either. The flavor was okay. The chow mein and vegetable egg roll were pretty standard. 3.5/5 - Fried Rice and 4 Dumpling set combo: the fried rice was, also, pretty standard. The pork dumplings were pretty good. The side of wonton soup was good. 3.75/5 SERVICE: Service was pretty fast and friendly. 4/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: Everything was okay. Nothing was bad, just nothing to write home about.

    The reviewers don't lie about this wonderful little Burmese cuisine place. Friends have told us…read moreabout it, and the reviews tell a story too. The location in Loomis is a little off the beaten path (you think you are leaving town), and in a super small strip mall. Step inside and you find a cute little family owned restaurant that will make you wonder "where did I just get transported to?"... A few tables in the front room and a second dining area to the right. It is important to note that you MUST be patient! There is only the owner running the front of house here. She is doing everything. Super friendly, and being as quick as she can to get tables cleared, people seated, orders taken and served. She does all of this with the most wonderful smile and personality. You will immediately fall in love with her. Many of the diners on this particular night already knew her and appeared to have long standing relationships with the family. We came in on a Saturday evening around 5:15pm and the floor was packed. It remained that way until around 6:30pm. I would suggest coming in later in the evening so the 'regulars' can get in and out. Ok, so now on to the food and why the Green Elephant is such a standout. Everything is super fresh, and flavorful with great depth in the sauces. We started with the tea leaf salad, and pork lumpia. Then Panang chicken and spicy garlic pepper pork and an order of rice. We love spicy food, and requested such (she has a spice scale of 1-10). Our mains were a level 7 and that was sufficient to give us good heat without compromising the flavors. She will also bring you a small dish of chili pepper oil if you want even more heat. By the time we were finished, the floor had cleared, so we know now to arrive a little later. But, return we will !!!

    A hidden gem in Loomis that truly feels like home…read more This family-owned Thai restaurant is open only for dinner, and you can feel the love in every detail. The owner cooks everything himself, while his wife warmly takes orders -- a beautiful, old-school partnership that instantly makes you feel welcome. The interiors are cozy and thoughtfully done, creating a calm, inviting atmosphere. The food is exquisite, clearly made with care and experience -- flavors that stay with you long after the meal. Yes, there can be long wait times, but it's absolutely worth it. This is not fast food; it's food made with heart. A place that reminds you why small, family-run restaurants are so special Highly recommended if you're in Loomis and don't mind slowing down for something truly memorable.

    I love this little hole in the wall. They have so many asian little goodies that you can't always…read morefind in this area. I have not tried their hot food, to be honest i was to busy looking at all the stuff that i didn't even notice if they had hot food. Their freezer section is super messy and you can't really tell the prices you have to ask which that i don't like cuz i'm anal but as for them having a pretty good selection of stuff they do and the people are super nice but they let you shop in peace. The aisles are fairly tight but its because of the selection...u get one thing and they have a huge amount of choices like soy sauce might have 20 different brands and sizes and the noodles there are tons to choose from. I like it. I seen another review saying they ordered five dishes from the kitchen...i wouldn't think that a place that size could make 5 cooked dishes all at one time...i think its more for like single meals at one time...i think it is just one lady back there and one person doing stock and cashier so to expect fully cooked 5 meals in a reasonable amount of time i would think that is a lot to do especially since most asian meals are pretty different so you have to cook so many different things at one time...i would think it was for a quick stop for like a couple or single person but not a huge family. But all in all its a nice little shop for when you need some asian staples.

    What a fun place to stumble upon. I love that there's a place like out here. It's a family owned…read moreshop, everybody there is super friendly and so nice. There so many fun things to have here from fresh groceries, freezer items, canned, jarred and even special specialty. The have grab and go items hot and cold. And you still can order from their back kitchen. There's so many fun snacks there to choose from and there's a bunch of specialty item Asian things that you can get, which is very nice. That's also Asian household goods as well. It's always fun to find the new items there.
