   Very happy i chose to make a reservation. Unique and tasty food! I saw photos of the coffee drinks and the skillet online which convinced me to go. I'm really glad I did. Definitely adding this to my must visit places every time I fly down from Seattle!

   I’ve been here twice now and think that’s more than enough. Honestly I would have only been here once for the experience. I think they’re great for service and ambience. Food arrives to your table pretty fast considering how busy it gets but I find the food only decent, not amazing. I would prefer their dinner restaurant over their breakfast. I loved the crab toast but everything else isn’t something I would come back for particularly. Drinks with ube both non alcoholic and alcoholic are of a thicker consistency which makes it difficult to enjoy over time. Reservations are easy and plentiful usually, highly recommend to make if you don’t want to wait long times.

   The food here is always delicious but this visit was a miss. Even though we went midweek and it wasn’t too crowded, the food took a long time to arrive. But the bigger issue was the $26 bone marrow that we always enjoy. The bones were practically dry giving us barely enough marrow for one person to sample.

   While the service provided was commendable, regrettably, the culinary offerings did not quite live up to their previous standards. The dishes served by nêp displayed an excessive amount of saltiness and an undesirable dryness, resulting in a notable absence of the vibrant flavors that once characterized their cuisine.

   My first visit to Nep Cafe and it was awesome! I made reservations period so we didn’t have to wait and we were seated right away. My fiancé and I got a few items to try. He started off with the Viet coffee with salted egg yolk& it did not disappoint. We then ordered the Banh Mi Chao with filet mignon and let me start off by saying WOW! So much flavor in that skillet. We also got the crab toast, the “DAO” and beef tongue fried rice. Everything was amazing and tasted great. Service was good, everyone was very friendly. We will definitely be coming back when we are in OC!!

   Me and my girlfriend came here from Washington DC. We found this place on TikTok and decided to try it out. They 100% did not disappoint. The hostess and servers were amazing!! The kitchen being wide open was a great experience and had great communication!! I really hope the owner decides to come to the east coast, because we need a place this refreshing in Dc!!!

    This was our second trip to NEP Cafe. This time it was for Mother's Day. David was great and even comped our Beef Tongue Fried Rice because it took so long to come out. The dish was great. I had the Xoi Chien (crispy fried rice). It was sweet and decadent. So delicious. We will definitely be back, but we also can't wait to try other Kei Concept restaurants.

    Ben here 3 times now and every time has been great! Service was friendly and food is always good. I always have an enjoyable experience here. The only downside is the long wait if you don’t have a reservation. Always try to book ahead of time. Other than that, Nếp Cafe is a great restaurant.

    The food and presentation was spectacular. You do need the majority of the party there to be seated when checking in. I do have more to comments, but overall I think from service to presentation and food, this place does deserve a five star.

    Food is special. Well balanced. High quality ingredients so some might say you get small portions but the price reflects what you are getting. I’d definitely recommend to anyone.

    Good food, good service. Very creative food, good quality ingredients. Service is very nice courteous. The only thing is they will bring all the food out very fast. So if you want to eat 1—2 dishes at time, you should order 1-2 dishes at a time. And order next dishes after they bring the first badge out. Will come back soon.

    Food was great. Cocktails were great. One thing I would say that was confusing is that the restaurant is called called Gem and not Nep Cafe. This caused some confusion and wasted time circling around the restaurant.

    Delicious food! I love the variety of food and having a brunch Café that is Vietnamese culture is very unique to find. The variety of drinks, including cocktails, and mock tails are amazing! This is a must go to place for everyone.

    Nice place to spend time with your love one. It’s a beautiful place to eat brunch. I enjoy it and love the food there. I really like there coffee that is more special than just plain ice coffee.

    I seen and heard great reviews of Nep Cafe. It did not disappoint! We stopped in mid week(Wednesday morning). Not to busy. The atmosphere in the restaurant was great. The service was awesome. It has a small, flavorful packed menu. With a little something for everyone. Every dish came out promptly, hot and with great presentation. Truly a great place to checkout!
