“Solid roots. New growth.”
is our brand. The brand highlights the City’s strong leadership and collaborative community spirit that won us cityhood, has kept us in a strong financial position despite no access to property tax and continues to be the foundation for our community’s growth today. Our new growth is evident in the over $100 million in infrastructure improvements completed, a Community Center and City Hall that was built with no debt and a new Dignity Health medical office building that will be opening in 2019, to name a few. It is our rich history of self-reliance and problem solving, but also new energy and ideas that offers families and businesses the stability and support they both seek, presenting an environment for growth.

Bo Urban Corner is a modern but casual dining place operated by the Bo family, the same family from the popular restaurant chain Bo Bo’s Café. Bo Urban Corner delivers modern influences of traditional Vietnamese street food including noodle bowls made with steamed vermicelli noodles topped with a choice of protein, fresh sprouts, lettuce, cilantro, cucumbers and roasted peanuts on the side. Spring rolls called a “salad in a roll” are fresh, crisp and made with your choice of protein. A local favorite is bánh mì, a sandwich made on a soft, lightly toasted baguette with a choice of protein and topped with jalapenos and creamy sriracha sauce. Protein choices include chicken, steak, salmon, shrimp or tofu. Another unique and delicious feature is the Vietnamese coffee, served iced or hot, the coffee is the perfect complement to your meal. Bo Urban Corner is located at 6001 San Juan Ave., and is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Bo says “stop by and say hi.”
