“Been familiar with Chef Celsie for some time. What is so imperative to highlight is the fact that when you have a true fusionist of tasteful delicacies; then you know you are just about to experience culinary heaven in your mouth. That is Chef Celsie, her deep knowledge of so many different kinds of culinary cultures makes her as force to be reckoned in La La Land. So in other words, you truly are in for a real treat!! #simplydelicious“

“I've been coming to Nam Kitchen ever since they opened over a year ago, and it’s easily become one of my favorite spots. It’s the perfect place to celebrate birthdays, hang out with friends, or enjoy a nice date night. The interior has a modern yet elegant vibe—definitely a bit more upscale than your typical Vietnamese restaurant—but the quality and portion sizes absolutely live up to it.

Nam Kitchen is a creative fusion of Vietnamese and Peruvian cuisine, and it really works!

What we ordered:

Ribeye Garlic Noodles – 8/10 ($30)
The price may look a little steep but the portions are large, and they don’t skimp on the steak. It was a LOT of steak! I asked for medium-rare, but it came out slightly more cooked than I prefer. Still, the chimichurri added a great kick and paired beautifully with the steak—it was super flavorful overall.

House Chicken Wings – 10/10 ($15)
We got seven pieces, and even after sitting for about 30 minutes while we filmed, the wings were still crispy, flavorful, and delicious. You can really taste the fish sauce—it adds that perfect umami touch.

Pho Short Rib – 10/10 ($17)
The broth is rich, aromatic, and bursting with flavor — you can really taste the fish sauce, lime, and all the fragrant spices. A huge bonus: they offer unlimited noodle refills, just like SUP Noodle Bar! The short rib was delicious, though I’ve had slightly more tender versions elsewhere — but the unlimited noodles more than make up for that. You could easily share this dish with another person, making it a great value!

Crispy Rolls - 8/10 ($9)
I like how they cut the egg rolls in half for easy sharing and serve them with fresh lettuce and carrots for wrapping. The presentation is beautiful and definitely photo-worthy. They also include fish sauce for dipping, which ties all the flavors together perfectly. I loved the crispiness of the egg rolls and the flavorful filling inside — such a satisfying bite!

Pink Petal Drink - 9/10 ($6)
I really enjoyed this drink made with strawberry purée and coconut milk — it’s super refreshing and beautifully presented with a flower garnish. It’s definitely an Instagram-worthy drink! The flavor leans on the sweeter side, so I’d recommend asking for it less sweet, or you can add a bit of water to balance it out (and make it last longer!).

Taro Coffee - 6/10 ($6)
We ordered this drink mainly for its aesthetic appeal, but since neither of us are big coffee drinkers, our rating might be a little biased. The Vietnamese coffee is quite strong and not too sweet, which true coffee lovers will likely appreciate. If you enjoy bold, robust coffee flavors, this one’s definitely worth trying!

Overall Score 9.5/10
Prices are a bit on the higher side, but the food absolutely makes it worth it. The staff are kind and friendly, though they can get quite busy at times. Parking can be a little tricky since the restaurant is located in a plaza near an apartment complex, and it tends to get crowded — even at 6 p.m. on a Saturday, the place was buzzing. I’m really happy to see how well they’re doing, and we were so grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with them!“

“Rico sabor peruano delicioso“

“A local favorite. Outstanding hardwood fire rotisserie chicken.

The only reason this spot doesn't get 5 stars is because sometimes there are rocks in the beans that'll break your teeth. See photo with quarter as size reference, taken today.“

“Amazing spot to get whole chicken. I called in to catch the person on the reaction of their chicken. The little Gemini lady at the window said she rates this place a 10/10. I liked how the pictures looked and I still thought she was playing. But I was 7 minutes away so I stoped by. That whole chicken I had was so good they marinate their chicken, I’ve never tasted all those flavors before. I’m glad I stopped here today.“

“Todo Rico limpio comida fresca y buena música“

“I love Pollo Inka it is so good I think that everyone should try it. I love the lomo saltado and my family's favorite the whole rotisserie chicken meal with two sides and soup. The restaurant itself inside is small enough to accommodate only a few customers“

“Good Ambience and food just fine“

“atención A1 las comidas deliciosa/ exquisito lo mejor de la comidas peruana en california te amo perú 🇵🇪“

“Always great..half or whole chicken.Good peruivan food.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch recently and enjoyed their buffet of Peruvian delights. We have no experience with Peruvian cooking, so cannot comment on authenticity. But the food was good. Enjoyed trying different chicken dishes, beef dishes, seafood, as well as many different side dishes. The staff were working hard to keep the buffet full, replenishing often. They did a nice job. For people like us, it would have been nice to have more labels for the different dishes so we could have learned the names of the many dishes. The restaurant was clean, food was good, and they worked hard to service everyone & the buffet. Will definitely want to go back again.“

“Good Service, and really good food, Thank you 🤗“

“Wear elastic pants. The portions are huge and you start off with soup and bread. We ordered so much food that I was stuffed but more kept coming from the kitchen.

The grilled chicken is delicious as is the picante de pollo. Service is good.“

“Great spot for soba and tempura. Set boxes were under $20 and was filling. They also have side purchases for additional piece of tempura (shrimp, chicken, veggies, etc)

Parking behind restaurant and also street parking near and around the restaurant.

Service was great and very welcoming. Recommend getting any of the set pieces to enjoy.“

“Omg they have Peruvian food so u get delicious aji sauce with their hot sauces.

Pupusas are 10/10. Fresh hot and crunchy on outside served with flavorful sauce and cooling it down with the pickled slaw. Sorry scarfed this down so no photos of it haha.

Menudo also 10/10. Lots of squishy tripe goodness and broth was flavorful. Served with fresh handmade tortillas.

I want to come back to try their breakfast and maybe grab some fresh warm conchas after next door. I recommend this place! They have several types of hot sweet warm drinks too like atol de elote, atole de platano, atol de aba, arroz con leche. Yummmyy“

“The food is good, the service not so much is terrible to be precise I tried ordering on the phone, I was told to wait whoever answered the phone just put the phone down I can hear them talk in the background and she was arguing with one of the customers who wanted to make a change in his order that he had not paid for yet, she claimed that she had already posted his order and could not make any changes, as this maybe understandable her demeanor was so unprofessional she was being rude, to end it here my order over the phone was never taken after waiting for 5 mim they simply hanged up, this isn’t the first time that this has happened to me. Even if you order online when you go to pick up your order they’ll ignore.“

“muy buena comida ambiente romántico“
