   Amazing chefs and staff at this restaurant. Family had been here one other time and we had a wonderful experience. Came back again for more. We ordered crab garlic noodles, bone marrow pasta, charred shrimp garlic noodle, squid and mango salad, salted cream flan, and coconut ice cream. Absolutely amazing flavors. My son loved the spicy noodles with ground beef from last time but it wasn’t on the menu this time. I had a wonderful sparkling Prosecco. I forgot what kind of wine my husband ordered. We were left very satisfied and full. Fireworks in my mouth was the exciting feeling with every bite. We love this place. You bet we will be back.

   My kids are older and only will come out to eat if I say it is Nep Cafe. They love The Dao. They ordered four orders. Thank you Nep for a great service and food. We really enjoyed our time.

   This is my second time coming to New cafe, and my last visit was about a year back. This time I had the bone marrow pasta and it was very buttery and flavorful and a good al dente texture for the pasta. The bone marrow was good as well, but it was a very small amount of bone marrow, and scraping it out of the bone was a bit difficult. Our server was very hospitable and the food came out quickly and was good quality. It was very loud though but expected for a weekend brunch hour. Would come back again to try the other dishes.

    Nep has been on my bookmark list for a while after hearing rave reviews from a couple of friends. Finally booked a reservation for a Friday dinner w/ friends and we weren’t disappointed. We arrived 20mins early for our 7:15 reservation and were seated in 5mins. Our cocktails we ordered (Chapter 3, Pink Lady, Lil Saigon, Ube Horchata) were delicious and a little on the sweet side. We ordered family style with the Whole Bronzino (4/5), Seafood Tom Kha Pasta (5/5 -wanted to order a second bowl!), and pork Tomahawk (4/5- taste like a very juicy Charsu) were stand outs!!!! I had high hopes for the Bone Marrow Pasta but it was ok (2/5) and so was the Seafood Ceviche (2/5). The shaken Beef was also good (3/5) and we loved the salad or at least the dressing for the salad (4/5). The service was great 4/5 with our server checking in on us and our empty plates being taken promptly away so we can have room as we were a party of five in a booth and the Ambience was nice 4/5. We plan to come back for brunch as we hear their brunch is better!
