The hosts on the phone were super helpful and it was really easy! 1pm on a Saturday and waited less than 1hr doing so (only half of that being in person too). Service top tier as usual. Favorite dishes: - Spicy noodle w/ chicken wontons: sauce is a banger, not too spicy, and they're generous with it to coat all of the noodles! - Lomo Saltado w/ Filet Mignon: the fries are sooo good with a sweet crunch to it PLUS the creamy little spicy cilantro green sauce is so good!!! Picanha had too much fat on it for me, the filet mignon was definitely the move - Garlic noodles: Perfect amount of garlic & butter to the noodles. And again, the green sauce is so superior with this.

Very disappointed with my takeout experience. I placed an online order that estimated a 15-20…read moreminute wait, but I ended up waiting over an hour to receive my food. What was even more frustrating was that when I asked about my order for the 4th time, the bag they handed me appeared to have been sitting there already. I'm not sure if the host didn't hear my name correctly or if there was a communication issue, but that's not acceptable. Customers shouldn't have to repeatedly check on their orders after waiting that long. If the actual wait time is significantly longer than 15-20 minutes, the online ordering system should be updated to reflect accurate estimates. Additionally, customers should receive a notification when their food is actually ready, not when it's "almost ready." The food may have been fine, but the pickup process was frustrating enough that I would think twice before ordering takeout again.

Nova was a pleasant surprise as we had no dinner plans made for our Disneyland vacation…read more Even before checking into our hotel (the Hyatt Regency conveniently located next to Nova), we saw the huge sign on the side of the building advertising their happy hour. We decided to give it a try on our first night. Everything from the staff friendliness to the ambiance to the taste of the food was exceptional! The specialty drinks were delicious, and the happy hour prices were more than reasonable. Everything was so good that we went back for a second happy hour in a row. The second visit was just as enjoyable, so much that we decided to visit on Sunday to check out their all you can eat brunch. The selections were amazing with a few exceptions. Some standouts were the ube pancakes, matcha French toast, Toro tartare toast, and garlic scallop fried rice. Some items on the menu left more to the imagination such as the spicy tuna crispy rice, which had no distinct flavor, and the fried oysters. Outside of those selections, the brunch options were amazing and worth the cost. Shout out to Ryan and Koda for the hospitality, and the bartenders that served us during happy hour. I would absolutely recommend this place for anyone visiting Orange County!

You can tell the quality and intention behind the flavors put into each dish, I am drooling all over again just writing this review! A favorite for every time we go would have to be the beef carpaccio. If you are willing to try it, this would be the place to because they know exactly what they're doing, serving something so yummy! I love the balance of the dressing with the arugula salad and sliced apple in it, for some crunch. Very well balanced appetizer in flavor and textures. Another runner-up would be the truffle funghi pizza. I know it doesn't look like much, but it sure packs a punch! Again, the arugula eases the savory flavor of the pizza and truffle oil. I love the light and thin crust, serves 2 people perfectly. We also decided to try the crab roe spaghetti, a summer special they're offering. The crab flavor throughout the soupy sauce is dense, but in the best way! I couldn't get enough of it. *Also very random, but very considerate is how the bathrooms offer a free mouth wash station. Love how even the smallest detail of taking care of their customers is on their mind! Definitely unique to this restaurant.

It would have earned 4.5 stars because I did not care for the deconstructed Bahn Mi (my son however raved about it) but everything else was excellent so it was an easy round up. Clean modern interior with on point and friendly staff. We were off rush hour so there was parking but it looks to be tight if things are busy The Food Garlic Noddle with Shrimp: So good. Fresh tasty shrimp with a nice slight char on them paired with rich garlicky noodles. Each could have stood on their own but together they were magic broccolini: nicely cooked and the roasted? garlic added a nutty element to them. Just the right amount of chili added a nice heat to it as well Spicy Wontons: I did not taste but looked fantastic and the table loved them. Why did I not get to taste them? I was distracted by the garlic noodles and my family attacked it like a pack of hungry wolves. By the time I circled back to them I was staring at an empty dish lol Beef belly: This ribbon like strips of beef belly severed almost bento style on rice. Surrounded by a tasty and fresh arrangement of toppings that paired perfectly with the beef. The egg had a glorious runny yolk and lets face it yolk soaked rice is one of life's better pleasures This was a great spot highlighting a modern take on Vietnamese fusion cuisine

Well put together deconstructed Banh Mi. I liked the flavors and it was fairly heavy for breakfast. The bread had great texture as well. My only complaint was there was little to no sear on the filet at all. That would've taken the dish over the top. The noodles were solid but nothing crazy. The mango sticky rice matcha was very unique - never had anything like it. It wasn't super strong though. Price was very fair for the entire meal which makes the overall experience 5 stars. Will definitely be back if looking for viet breakfast in the fountain valley area.

For the omakase we get a choice of three appetizers, two pasta dishes, chefs choice entree, chefs choice risotto, and a choice of dessert for each person.

This visit we went with beef tataki, salmon burrata, deep fried oysters, shrimp tempura salad, eggplant and mushrooms pasta, Uni pasta, scallops risotto, and the prime steak.

A true fusion of incredible flavors I'm obsessed with and even more so because they can make any dish vegan or vegetarian! Their Spring Rolls are light, crispy and savory. Enjoy noodles dishes, rice dishes, curries, soups, sides and even sweets. Not to mention their Special of the Month. Service is super friendly, thoughtful and helpful. I enjoyed a vegan version of the TomYum Noddles with Tofu and went for the brave choice of #5 hot, it was SO delicious and the heat is real!!! Definitely would do it again, but maybe trying level #3 on the medium side. Great to dine in with plenty of tables and chairs directly in front or anywhere in Rodeo 39. Orders typically ready in 10 minutes or so, they tend to but them to the side for pick up and keep everything organized fairly well. Cute bottled bear beverages of all sorts as well as the classics, water, soda, teas, and frescas. Even Labubu is a fan!
