As someone recently gluten free, this has become one of my absolute favorite places to go. The staff are so nice, and I have yet to have any symptoms of being glutened! I eat here probably at least once a week, either as takeout or eating in. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, both in the dining area and the waiting area. My absolute favorites are the pad Thai with chicken and the fried rice with vegetables. 10/10 will continue to go over and over and over!
Enjoy a vibrant atmosphere with unique decor, great service, and a mix of lively vibes perfect for gatherings or a cozy date night.

Great date night spot! I really enjoyed the food, but the decor and vibe really made this place a great experience. I really enjoyed the crispy chicken Bao buns and the ramen. A couple of good gluten free options too.

A casual spot with quick service and a relaxed vibe, but the seating could use more comfort for a longer stay.

I am allergic to gluten and they always make me food that is safe for me to eat. They are so kind here and do such a great job! One of my favorites! Their chairs are not very comfortable so bring a cushion if you are like me with chronic pain.
Most of the food we ordered was superb. Wait staff was friendly and very helpful. There were lots of gluten free options (kitchen is not dedicated) including some very fun dosas.
This place is blesphemously delicious. I want to eat there every day. I have a relatively strict diet (gluten free, dairy free, sugar free) and Pho Happiness checks all the boxes, and at a fair price with delicious, fresh food that even my children love to eat. My all time favorite restaurant right now.
Food is very good. Dishes are fresh, tasteful and well presented.
The waitress was very knowledgeable about gluten free diet. She was very helpful about the menu choice. Prices are reasonable. I definitely suggest to eat there!
A standout spot for flavorful dishes with fantastic customization options and a smooth online ordering experience that keeps diners coming back.

Six of us got takeout from Rasa Indian and Japanese Restaurant in Chapel Hill. I appreciated the care that went into preparing the online menu and the way it specified options: vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy, etc. The fellow that took our order over the phone was polite regarding our questions and he accommodated our requests. I don't like hot spicy food, so I asked for my order to be mildly spiced and that's what I got. We each thought the food was delicious. We will definitely be going back. Nice experience all the way around.
A downtown Chapel Hill favorite for over 20 years, this spot offers a fun vibe and quick, tasty bites that locals and newcomers love.

A sushi and noodle shop that's been a downtown Chapel Hill staple for over 20 years, weathering the pandemic and maintaining student and family-friendly menu options all the way. Many of the staff are familiar faces to locals visiting year after year, making fresh and tasty eats for new and returning customers.
Sushi, noodles, bowls, salads, and dessert options are available with beer, wine, and sake to pair. Their menu also has options marked for gluten-free and vegetarian diners.
It is a great place to try your first bite of sushi if you've yet to do so, and a nice stop for quick menu or conveyor belt orders if you're spending time downtown. I have enjoyed many of their offerings; today's lunch special was lovely.
