Enjoyed our lunch at The Ripple of Smiles.  Did not know what to expect going in here but ended up liking the outdoor patio, food, service and staff.  This is the kind of local restaurant you want to support.  Hard working owners that are doing EVERYTHING possible to stay open and keep their restaurant safe and clean.  You can tell they care here and that means a lot.  We started with the Signature Special Chicken with Rice ($17).  This was not what I expected and a bit expensive for what is on the plate.While I would not call this a Signature dish it was ok but nothing I would run out and order again.The House Special that Will Blow Your Mind ($17.95) with Pork was absolutely delicious.  We could not enjoy the Pork with Rice since we are going low carb, but the Pork and sauce was fantastic.  The sauce was just a bit spicy and addicting.  I ended up adding it to the Pho and wow....really made the Pho broth taste fantastic.  The Beef Pho ($10 small) was good.  We ordered it without noodles and they were happy to substitute fresh vegetables in place of noodles.  We also asked them for another bowl so we could share and again no problem.  The food here is good.  Service is excellent.  I will definitely return to support this local small business.
