Best hole-in-the-corporate-wall ever. I knew it was in a snazzy office building, but it's still unexpected to find them there y'know?? I was greeted by a man I assume to be the owner, and he was just so darn nice. He recognized nearly everyone who came in to order, and his customers took the time to chat with him too. Gives me the fuzzies. The Californian ($12): Seems like a sandwich you can make yourself at home, but sometimes (most of the time) you don't feel like doing it. Enter The Californian. Look how much turkey they gave me!! When a sandwich needs to be held together by a toothpick, you already know it's gonna be good. Ultimate Grilled Cheese ($8.25): My husband is one of those people who will say "this is the best ____ I've ever had" whenever he's hungry, and he's a grilled cheese snob. This one has made 1st place so far on his list of grilled cheeses. They are currently expanding/moving to a bigger space in the same building, which is super exciting. I will be back to try their pho on Monday's!

Don't let the location detour you away!! It's inside of an office building but it's not hard to find on the first floor! I got a vegetarian Vietnamese sandwich. They ran out of the regular bread for the sandwiches but they offered to make it for me on another type of bread and OMG IT WAS SOOOO GOOD! They should definitely put this on their menu or all my vegetarians out there. It hard to come by a good vegetarian Viet sandwich My gf also enjoyed her breakfast sandwich. The coffee could use a little work. It didn't taste like Starbucks coffee. It tasted like it was missing creamer and sugar.

What a GREAT find!! I was specifically looking for a banh mi sandwich spot so I could purchase some pickled daikon and carrots to take home as we wanted to make our own sandwiches with leftover BBQ pork. This was close by so off I went. Since it was around lunch, I ordered a club sandwich and a chicken teriyaki bahn mi to go and my request for a tub of pickled veggies was not a problem. Both sandwiches were huge with generous portions and were fresh and delicious! Both gentlemen were friendly and had a good time chatting with them. Yes it's in an office building but don't let deter you - they have great quality and good food - please support this local business!!

We have not tried everything but they make great Vietnamese sandwiches on fresh home made French bread and good coffee. A great lunch spot in a nice building. I would like to go back and sit under the trees outside by the fountain.

Weird location, but Banh Mi was solid and portions were generous, will definitely try them again.

We almost decided not to try to find it, but I'm glad we did. Weird location inside an office-like building. Got the original banh mi and my sister for the croissant sandwich. The bahn mi is super yummy and generous with the meat!!! Will be back!

Without a doubt, Hacienda Café is my favorite spot for breakfast and lunch! The food is always super fresh and tasty and the customer service is unmatched! Nestled in a beautiful office building, you can smell the fragrant aromas of the café from either end of the hall. As a vegan, it's always been difficult for me to find a close "go-to spot" that catered to my dietary needs-- not only does Hacienda Café have various vegan/ vegetarian options but their menu is customizable, so I'm able to try different options each time I go! I've gone to this café with meat-eaters, vegetarians and even someone who has to eat gluten free-- there's something for everyone here and everyone leaves will full belly's and happy faces! Despite the many obstacles I'm sure this cafe faced with the pandemic, I'm so glad to see them back up and running after being closed for over a year. I'm looking forward to seeing this cafés growth in 2022 and the return of their daily specials and regular business hours! Although I no longer work in the business building, I will continue to make the trip out here to eat at my favorite spot. Special thanks to Nick and Kevin for upholding such high standards in your food and service. Anyone who's ever had the opportunity to dine here would agree!

Pho Monday is a good place to be at the Hacienda Terrace Cafe. The broth for this beef pho dish has a sophisticated layering of spices reminiscent of the southern Vietnamese style. Apparently it's a family recipe of anise, clove, cinnamon, whole black peppercorns and other family secret stuff. It was truly satisfying and comforting. The location is inside of a business building and you might not think to check it out. Look at the specials on their website for unconventional offerings in a business building location. The service is uber friendly but not in a creepy way and quick an efficient. I was there for the Pho but a couple of other diners found this spot through yelp and wanted to try the sandwiches. They reported the sandwich they had was enjoyable but wished it had a bit more spice or peppers. Maybe a sandwich offering with mayo and siracha would be popular? I'm giving a five star which is unusual for me, because I just love the hospitality and the innovative specials. It seems the owners want to please and give you a good experience and truly want to "feed you" like a Jewish or Chinese grandma would.

Staff were very friendly and the food was great. They have a good variety of food to choose and staff were mentioning they change around some of their specials. It's too bad I'm on travel otherwise I'd definitely return.

This is a hidden gem. The food is lovingly prepared by family and the service is incredible!!!
