Nếm Restaurant 175 South Capitol Avenue, San Jose, CA 95127

"We wanted a home-style food. We ordered a catfish with sour soup, very tasty, nice vegetable textures. We ordered fried noodles, two kinds of egg roll, a kho with pork and rau mung(sp?). Service was nice, our friends enjoyed the selection."

"Food is nothing special. Taking into account the quantity, quality, and price is 3 stars. The food does take a bit of time when we went (Sunday at 6:30) and our party of 10 was one of two tables there. Pho came out about 20 minutes after ordering and it was very sweet with a fair bit of msg. Hot pan beef was mid but came with surprisingly good bread. Coming back from college we got dia gia dinh and, while they weren't like grandma or moms, the bitter melon soup, braised egg and pork and hot pot catfish hit the spot. The fat and skin of the pork was like jelly and food was hot."

"It was took us 40mins from where we live. She so friendly and flexible. No doubt the restaurant was open till 5pm, but since we got there she just let all of us in. All food that we had very fresh and love it very much and we definitely recommend to all our friends and family. We will go back more often. Thank you for being open for us. Even on Labor’s day."

"Great service and very good foods. We had a bday party at this Restaurant for around 35 guests. The owner is super nice and understand our needs. She gave us a lot of ideas about the foods and suggestions for the party. We loved the way she handle the business and treat us very professional. Definitely recommend her and her Restaurant to our friends and family."

"Excellent food, service and atmosphere! The waitress recommended a very good and fun hot pot type dish and also gave everyone in our group a free dessert drink or Vietnamese iced coffee! This is by far the best Vietnamese restaurant I’ve ever been to with a very extensive menu that isn’t anywhere else!"
