As Sacramento’s crisp autumn nights approach, a new Vietnamese spot has opened downtown, serving warm and comforting pho.<\/p>\n

Amber Hazel Vietnamese Kitchen at 1714 15th St., not far from the State Capitol Complex, opened Oct 1. The restaurant’s website<\/a> points to its “aromatic” pho and savory rice platters.<\/p>\n

“Whether you’re craving a comforting bowl of noodle soup, a quick lunch catch-up with friends, or a leisurely family dinner, our warm and inviting space is the perfect spot,” said the online post. “Come as you are, and leave with a satisfied heart, a full stomach, and a smile.”<\/p>\n

The Vietnamese business replaced Mochinut<\/a>, a popular Asian dessert spot famous for its mochi donuts. Mochinut closed in late 2026, according to Yelp.<\/a><\/p>\n

Amber Hazel serves three different types of pho: a beef pho, a veggie pho and a chicken. According to its online menu,<\/a> all use fresh ingredients and are priced at $19. Other main dishes include a banh mi, rice vermicelli, a broken rice plate with jasmine rice, cucumber, tomatoes, lettuce, picked daikon and carrots with fish sauce on the side.<\/p>\n

There is a full drink menu, with tea, coffee and matcha. Its specialty beverages are Vietnamese coffee, ube matcha, taro milk and egg coffee.<\/p>\n

For dessert, there’s che, a type of Vietnamese dessert filled with fruit, jellies, beans and grains such as sweet potato or taro. Amber Hazel serves its che with mixed fruits, coconut, strawberries, fruit jelly and a coconut shaved iced. For a local dessert treat, diners can opt instead for a cup of Gunther’s vanilla or lemon custard ice cream.<\/p>\n

Amber Hazel is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As Sacramento’s crisp autumn nights approach, a new Vietnamese spot has opened downtown, serving warm and comforting pho.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":508881,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[121,123,122],"class_list":["post-508880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sacramento","tag-sacramento","tag-sacramento-headlines","tag-sacramento-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=508880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/508881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=508880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=508880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=508880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
