Good food too salty šŸ§‚

laurie bunkley

This was my 1st time there today, because of the noise I have been hearing about Chef Nem place, and posts that I have been seeing on fb, so I decided to get up and go on this Friday, I texted my order in after 8am this morning, so then I get a text stating ok give us about 35mins to get your order ready, so 35mins went by and I'm still waiting, I never got another text, so I decided to get out of my car to go see whats going on, so when I ask is my order ready they get attitudes, even Chef Nem, I can hear him in the back discussing me and my order in a rude manner, very unprofessional as an owner, what he should have done personally is came out to apologize to me for the wait which was about 40mins after I paid for my food instead of bad talking me while i can hear from the back, but I support everyone especially my own kind, but I want be going back, but the food was good

Tried them for the first time yesterday. First time trying fried Salmon bites. They were so good! Seasoned well and fresh. The chicken was also seasoned very well and fresh. The asparagus was on point and so was the broccoli. Will definitely be coming back they on šŸ”„!!!!!

I’ve been eyeing this restaurant for a while on Ubereats, so I finally decided to order via Ubereats.

I ordered the BOGO Chicken Alfredo, the fried shrimp combo with the salmon fries as the side choice, and a side of garlic parmesan sauce. First, let me mention that it took just short of two hours for my food to even arrive. That was a little frustrating but, I got past that, and was just excited to try the food.

I, first noticed that the portion size of the chicken in the alfredo was very small. The garlic bread that was supposed to come with the Chicken Alfredo’s were also missing. So, that made me upset…because this restaurant’s prices are pretty high…so, the fact that I spent over $60, there should definitely not be anything missing from my order. Started eating, and I immediately bit into something in the chicken that was not chewable. I took that piece out of my mouth, and proceeded to eat, and I noticed that every piece of chicken that I bit into, except for one had hard, rubbery pieces in it, which left the chicken inedible. At this point, I gave up eating it because that’s just plain insane to serve inedible chicken. I proceeded to try the shrimp, and noticed that my garlic parmesan sauce that I paid for, was not in the container or the bag. The shrimp was pretty good, and the salmon fries were ok but, the portion size definitely was not worth $24.

I am angry, and very disappointed with this restaurant because I really had high hopes, and thought that the food would be amazing but, overall, it was not good at all. Thank God that the Alfredo was BOGO because I would’ve spent over $80 on inedible, small portioned food. I don’t know what’s going on with that chicken that is put in the Chicken Alfredo but, please stop serving your supporting customers this. Below are pictures of the rubbery pieces that were all throughout the chicken.

Food and services were great! Got there during brunch hours, ordered a salmon burrito with a special sauce and it was delicious!! Everything was evenly distributed so it was heft and hearty! The sauce was just the icing on the cake!! A must if you’re in the area and can wait upwards of 30-1 hr for their food!
Also, since I’m not from there and was visiting the waitress was kind enough to all me to enjoy something else delicious on the house! Def know how to keep a customer happy! The ladies customers service was also very positive even though they were slammed! I will definitely be back šŸ‘ŒšŸ¾

Here depends on when they open or if they open according to their voice-mail. Now the food is great! Customer on the inside are not the brightest or best - they can use help in that area. How you ordered, omg, if you hungry go somewhere else because their system isn't the best at all. It doesn't follow properly. As long you have patience, don't mind dealing with the customer service and waiting waiting waiting you will be fine and enjoy all of your food. I must give a plus for the person that opens and holds the door for each customer that it is the best service!

Placed an order via text as they requested. Went to the restaurant to pay and retrieve ordered.

Grant it. I gave the wrong last four digits of phone number. Once I realized it, I made a correction.

They said they had the order since I never responded to wanting a desert they did not put the order in.

Ohhh, I was livid because I waited almost an hour for the order, and to be told I didn't respond to a desert, no order.

This restaurant serves good food, but the quality of service is questionable. At your risk ... just know it will be a wait.

Might be better to doordash or Uber vs. going in. Whoosh!!

This place has been on my bucket list to try for over a year now and I had high expectations, so I feel compelled to write a review! First with the positive. As you can see, the presentation of their dishes is on point. The food was nice and hot! The mac n cheese was pretty good, no complaints there. I got the pineapple mango nemonade and it was spectacular! Really sweet, that’s for sure but that’s perfect to me. Now for the negative, I’ll start out with the parking. The parking situation is kind of a mess. When I arrived to pick up my to go order, a customer came out and told me the little bit of parking that was available on the side of the building where they had parked, they were told they had to move. There were also gigantic potholes in their parking space. I had to park at the gas station across the street and walk over. Sketchy area too. The lambchops were cooked well done (I like mine medium, but admittedly they never asked and I never told them how to have them cooked) but they were also overly salty tasting and they were pretty small as well. I don’t think I could justify spending 44$ in the future again for what I received, but I’m happy to have finally been able to try them out and able to support a black owned business on Juneteenth!
