A nice quick service alternative to Brodards! I find this place easier if you don't want to call in advance, as I've never waiting for than 5 min for smaller orders (up to 6 rolls). Though recently they set a minimum of $20 for card payments, which makes it tough if you don't have cash for a small order. They also had a special and threw in a bao which they are promoting now. Overall, the nem nuong rolls are slightly cheaper than Brodards but they can be a little skimpy on the fillings - maybe not enough lettuce or maybe the nem nuong shape (flat) makes the roll feel less full. Still hits the spot in a pinch. read more

Got the feeling no welcome us A face that looks like they just had an argument in the kitchen before you come to visit their store The Young girl without respect customer even 1st soft face . read more

Located in a very busy plaza so parking may be challenging. It's also a small store front you walk up and order and the menu is on TV screens kind of hard to read since there is a glare from the window. Cash is recommended as you will get a 5% discount on your order. I got 3 nem cuon and 3 bo bia. The order came out quickly in less than 5 minutes. The nem cuon was good and the dipping sauce was still warm. However I still prefer Brodards rolls better. The Bo bia was terrible. They added little shrimps into and I was not expecting that I have never had Bo bia with shrimp in it. It made me nauseous. There wasn't lot of filling either this fell very short in my books I would skip the Bo bia. If you're in the area, can find parking, have cash, and are craving nem cuon, try it. Other than that I would say skip it. read more

A good choice for nem nuong rolls! I like coming here because they're easy to order with and you can just run in, pay and grab them. I'll call the same day and they have it ready in 20-30 minutes. It's a small place so take out only. Parking can be a bit challenging since it's a small lot. read more

Solid mini banh baos and chicken wings! Fast service. Togo type of place. Enjoyed the deals.

Great alternative to Brodards. Their spring rolls are fresh and go well with the dipping sauce they provide. Don't forget to take off the Saran Wrap when eating. We ended up ordering a party tray which was 20 pieces of the nem for $45. We ordered there and it came out incredibly quick. They said to wait 5-10 mins. Parking can be rough because it's a corner plaza with a small lot shared with multiple businesses. read more

The quality had changed over the time from when they opened to now. It was tasty, yummy tasting that just lingered in your mouth, especially with their dipping sauce...it was unique, savory and packed with favor. Plus the prices are way cheaper which is understandable over the time. Especially with currently economy. The rolls now are good, fresh but the favor isn't there and the dipping is just okey. Their other rolls are good too. This place is for pickup or to go only. I would recommend call first and stop by for p/u since parking lot is small. It shares with 5 other stores for less than 20 parking lots. It can be and will be a headache during the weekends and holidays for sure. Shop is small and with dark red paint and minimal decor beside the menu signs and their phone # on the wall. Service is nice and helpful. If you just walk in and placed an order, you might have to wait for 5-15mins depending how busy they are but there's a small bench to seat for waiting. read more

After coming back to the shop after some time, I felt that the spring rolls were no longer as good as before. They were very dry and hard, and the sauce was watery. The spring rolls were already cold right after I received my order. The staff looked very tired and not very cheerful. read more

I'm sorry but this is the worst rolls I've ever had. Starting with the peanut sauce that tasted nothing like peanut. The sauce is a very sweet tamarind sauce. Spring rolls have too much noodle and bean sprouts. I had to pick out the noodle and bean sprouts. The sauce was unbearable. I dont know how they couldn't even get the basic sauce right. Dont listen to the online hype, go to Brodard or any Viet restaurant read more

My mom introduced me to this place and they have great nem nuong. My friends and family think it's better than Brodards too! They wrap each spring roll with saran wrap to keep it fresh and from sticking to each other. So good and def a must try! read more

Located in a small plaza, the parking spaces are designed for compact cars btw. It was a simple menu, which is great because they are selling food for what their specialty is. You order at a counter and it's all straightforward. The menu is on a tv screen. It's a clean spot with two small benches to sit at while you wait. I got the nem cuon. It comes out wrapped individually, the portion size is a bit smaller then a some spots I go to. I have mixed feelings and wouldn't say it's bad but it's not amazing. The dipping sauce is clean and warm. I would say check it out and give it a shot. read more

Nem nuong cuon has a very special place in my heart. Unfortunately it's not always good. But NEM? NEM did it just the way I like it. This place is a take-out only spot. Ambiance is appropriate for that kind of operation. They pump out Nem Nuong like clockwork. I got the party platter, which had 20 pieces. Perfect amount. They also give you a whole tub of Nha Trang sauce. Perfection. I called ahead and the lady on the phone was prompt, clear, and had excellent customer service skills. I asked for 20 pieces and she had them done in 15 minutes. My girlfriend and I couldn't contain ourselves. We got into the tray and finished half before getting the the party, blasting Sublime We took a trip to Garden Grove. Smelled like Lou Dog inside the van read more

I saw this fast food caterer many times but was always suspicious but somehow after buying my desserts at Hien Khanh next door I read reviews n said at 4.5 stars how could I go wrong? Well that was a disaster. Trust me it was that bad, where do I begin? The Bo bia was a joke, don't even try, the supposedly egg didn't have a mother!!! Omg it was like a plastic strip, I hope it was not Bill Gates lab meat n even made w 3d printer, not a joke! Lab chicken already sold next to beyond meat, better check what you are buying, this was plastic egg not lab chicken so my guess is that it was made w powdered eggs but my point was it was fake n had zero taste, the roll was stuffed w so much veggies not enough herbs or sausage, the hoisin sauce was ok. The nem nuong taste was not bad but the sauce was so fake, funny yellow artificial color what in the world was that? I ate them w the hoisin sauce as I ditched the Bo bia. They wrapped so tight w Saran Wrap it was hard to break it open, I almost ate it had I not seen the sign warning us to remove the Saran. What a waste of money I miss the real nem nuong I just had in Saigon grilled on real charcoal briquettes. read more

Not consistent. Sometimes the rolls have pickled carrots and daikon in them, sometimes it doesn't. The rolls also look like they've been rolled by a 10 year old. lol It's okay I wouldn't say it's the best nem I've ever had they're decent. read more

Hands down the best place to get spring rolls. The parking can be tough some times but usually fine. The service is fine, they'll be nice to the customers but yell at each other which can be uncomfortable. Overall though, haven't had a bad experience and I order from them a few times a year. Definitely worth trying if you need to order some spring rolls. read more

Came on a Wednesday at 5pm. Not busy at all so I was able to place my to go order quickly. Went with the nem nuong rolls, chao tom rolls, basil chicken wings, and the garlic fries. Order was prepared pretty fast so rushed home to enjoy the meal because it smelled awesome. In my opinion, the rolls were on par with another popular roll place. Almost exact copies except for the dipping sauce. Wings and fries were not bad either, but the rolls were my favorite. Would consider coming back. read more

This place is definitely a great alternative to Brodard spring rolls if you're craving nem nuong cuon. The sauce is very similar to Brodards. The rolls are very tasty and satisfying. 5 percent discount if you pay with cash. Parking lot sucks. Please don't eat the plastic wrap!! Each individual roll is wrapped with a small piece of plastic to keep them from sticking together. They even have signs in the store to remind you of this! read more

Had to come here again for my family's Christmas dinner. It's just so good and simple to order here. Pay them cash and you get it a little cheaper. Couldn't find parking, everyone had the same idea to get spring rolls for the holiday and I parked on the side that wasn't a space but i'm just picking up my order anyways and as long as I didn't block anyone. The rolls were hot and ready and they are always nice here. Definitely a great find to getting a tray of spring rolls. read more

I came during my lunch break, this place is very similar to brodard but the dipping sauce is a a little different. It's missing something, i just can't put my finger on it. Love that the piece of pork was big and how fast it came out. Great service and good quality food! read more

We wanted to grab a quick snack to have on our drive back down to San Diego, and saw Nem was closeby. I'll never say no to Spring Rolls, so we decided to give it a try! - PARKING - Very small parking lot that seems to always be packed, and there's also quite a lot of homeless surrounding the business fronts and sidewalks. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - Definitely a grab and go type of restaurant, as there isn't any seating available. Menu is simple enough that you tell them what you want and they'll package it for you within 5 minutes. - FOOD - Nem Nuong (3pcs - $6.60): If you're eating it without any comparison to other restaurants, I felt like this was pretty good! Many places have increased their prices, so this honestly wasn't too bad in my eyes. Now if you compare it to another popular spot that also does Nem Nuong... I'd still go to that original business over NEM. Still, the rolls were tasty and filled my craving. - OVERALL - If you're looking for a spot to have a quick grab-and-go type of snack/meal, NEM is a great option. I would just be prepared to have a passenger hop out if there's no parking available! read more

This is a pretty decent nem cuon place. We got a tray of 40 for $93! The nem was pretty tasty and the portion of veggies is on point. I would get another tray again for parties. The parking might be a small area, but people come in and out all the time, so just have to wait! read more

Very good food and nice service quick order . Love the nem cuon . Would recommend to try

the sauces are really meh. The rolls themselves are fine, so i ended up having to make my own dipping sauces

So this little establishment saved the day for me yesterday. My brother was celebrating his bday and I needed a last minute food idea for 15 people. I called early in the morning as other places weren't even opened. Placed my order for 25 nem cuon and they allowed me to schedule a p/u time. When I arrived, I was greeted right away and got service with a smile from the worker. I knew the food was going to be good from this point. Also, pay with cash, they give a small discount. I'll be ordering more often for all of the parties/functions read more

For a Vietnamese eatery, customer service was great. The establishment is a very simple storefront that feels more like a juice bar, right in line with being a take-out only eatery.

The NEM rolls are AMAZING!!! I've never had yummier rolls than these and I love the crunch it has! The sauce served with it is so delicious.

This place is more of a buy and go type of place. Small restaurant with no indoor seating still. I wouldn't really call it indoor seating anyways, since it's only 1 table to sit. Bought the Nem Nuong Rolls around $5 for 3 rolls. It was ok good--decent. *******BE CAREFUL NOT TO EAT THE SARAN WRAP that's around the rolls. I don't know why they do that!!! It's SUPER DANGEROUS!!!! PEOPLE COULD BE EATING IT AND NOT KNOW****** There is saran wrap covering that is packaged, and if you open the package, there is saran wrap around the spring rolls.**** SO BE EXTRA CAREFUL ****** We ordered garlic fries too, which was $5. They're good. I like that it's crispy on the outside and inside is soft. I think they just added garlic powder over the fries. Not too garlicy. read more

I have purchased their Nem Nuong rolls in the past and it was so delicious. Their rolls are fresh and had crunch. The nem itself was so tasty and there was a large chunk of it in the rolls. It was a little pricey but the food was delicious and we got it quickly. This is mostly a to-go store so don't expect to sit down. Service was good and quick! Would definitely come back for their rolls. read more

This is a very small grab and go place. We didn't have to wait for service, and our order was ready in a timely manner. We wanted some afternoon snacks, so we decided to stop by for some nem nướng roll. The wrapper was chewy and soft. Each roll contains a good ratio of vegetables and nem. We like the addition of the fried wonton wrapper since it added a crunchy texture. The sauce was a good mixture of savory and sweet. The packet of Sambal added some spice and sourness. Removed 1 star for the garlic fries. The fries were freshly fried but definitively no garlic flavor. We won't order it again. read more

I would not place any order during the holidays at this place. On Christmas Eve, there is a line of at least 15 people to pick up an order and only on staff working at the front. They are running 1.5 hrs behind promise time of the order. If you are unable to fulfill an order, do not accept more orders. You are wasting the customer's time and stressing out the employees. People don't place order days in advance to wait 1 hr in line to pick up and then to be told it will be another 30 min. read more

I'm a big fan of nem nuong and I've come to NEM a couple times for that exact reason. Flavorful grilled pork and fresh veggies inside. This place definitely makes nem nuong well, but it is pretty pricey for how much you get. 3 nem nuong for $5? Not worth the price or the LONG LINES that accumulate on the weekends. If you come here, it's far more worth it for catering (20 rolls for $24). You get much more for your buck. Call ahead and it can be done when you get there. read more

I've always had a good experience with food from NEM. It's a quick eatery, not a place to sit down and enjoy, but I don't think that's a reason to rate it lowly! I would say it's more to-go and catering focused. I've ordered catering 5+ times here and every time has been spot on. I really like their nem nuong here and the price is really good. I wouldn't say the nem nuong is the best by any means, but it's an affordable catering option. However, please remember to remove the plastic wrap before eating. I've had too many friends fall victim to this hahaha read more
