Nguyen's Kitchen - Banh mi again please! This was a dope surprise for lunch on set! It was delicious and high flavor. - Vietnamese Near Me - South Gate, California

I've tried the one in Orange several times and I'm so glad there's finally one closer to my place! We ordered Cajun garlic fries with Bulgogi, Sliders, Bulgogi bowl, and their classic garlic noodle with added shrimp. I personally love their garlic noodles because you can always change up the meat whenever you get it & the noodles pair well with everything. Today, I ended up getting their Cajun Garlic fries and it did not disappoint! The Bulgogi is so tasty & they mix it with some onions which adds a ton of flavor to it. For me, the garlic taste is really overpowering with the fries but I love garlic so I didn't really mind. Overall, Nguyen's Kitchen is a must try and I have to suggest trying their famous garlic noodle paired with Tiger Shrimps. If you're feeling a little extra hungry, also try their Bulgogi either with fries, rice or a sandwich! read more

Terrible service , they lie about their hours and close earlier than said times. They got a bunch of lazy employees, but I'm not surprised, this early closing happened August 3rd 2023, and it's not the first time I've walked in where people are still seated eating but deny me service... what a terrible experience, never will I come back after this happening multiple times... if you can't serve food until SAID CLOSING TIME, THAN CHANGE YOUR FREAKING HOURS!!!!!!!! read more

First time trying this place out, it looked super yummy on Instagram. We ordered through there website, it said about 15 to 20 minutes we got there at 15 minutes & it wasn't ready quite yet which was fine. We had put special instructions to add extra noodles & that we would pay for them since there wasn't an extra noodle button online. We unfortunately didn't get them but I asked before we left & we waited for an additional whole order of noodles. We got the wings, the garlic noodles with the steak, and a steak sandwich. My boyfriend said he would give the sandwich a 7 out of 10 definitely way to much cilantro. But over all super tasty sandwich. The wings we both agreed deserved a 10 out of 10 they were delicious, super crispy and flavorful the only thing we would have wanted would have been a different dipping sauce option besides ranch. Finally the garlic noodles they got a 6 out of 10 it wasn't that they weren't good it was that they were more on the bland side & had an odd aftertaste. They also didn't mention that the steak came with onions on the noodles which I wasn't a big fan of. The service was great, the girl behind the counter helped walk us through drinks & was very nice about all our little questions. We will definitely give this place another try, & maybe see what else they have to offer. read more

Loved this place and the staff was amazing!!! We ordered a few things off the menu and loved everything. Will definitely keep going to eat there. read more

Food was on the blander side. Probably would choose a different place to eat lunch in the future.

I would give this a zero star if I can Since the moment we step into the restaurant, the staffs have giving me much attitude, made me and my husband feel unwelcome. As we noticed there was no cashier only 2 kitchen staffs. We sat at the table waiting for them to take our order and they just keep having their own conversation like we don't even exist until my husband turn around and told them we are ready to order. I wanna make it clear that we completely fine with coming to the cashier to order, however, the employees continue to acts as if we asking for free food. We were the only customers in the store at the moment so I assume because they giving bad attitude that's why the business is slow. We ordered 2 drinks ( fountain drink and jasmine milk tea) The fountain drink tasted like mold, like if they don't clean the nozzles Jasmine milk tea taste like cucumber?!? I told the staff about my drink, no apology, just straight up asked me what other drink I want. I got peach lychee for replacement + employee attitude AGAIN! We ordered 2 garlic noodles and both tasted really salty. Overall, NEVER RECOMMENDED EVER AGAIN TO ANYONE. read more

I can see why this place has mainly 4 or 5 stars Food is very good and affordable price . The place is new and clean Try this place out you won't regret it read more

I really like this place! They have delicious garlic noodles. I've tried all 3, chicken beef and shrimp. All are delicious depending on what you're in the mood for. Their Vietnamese coffee is delicious, garlic fries are yummy and they give a large portion. Beef bulgogi sliders were good a tiny bit too salty but still yummy. And they also sell Pur bowls which are like açaí bowls but also have other options for the base like matcha and other fruits and they have plenty of healthy toppings, I like to add the vanilla chia pudding to the Amazon bowl very yummy. I also appreciate the decore it's very pretty. The service has also been friendly and prompt. Excited to try other menu options. read more

Let's just be honest... and their food was good. I ordered garlic half chicken half steak noodles. It was a little too pricey, because I had the same kind of noodles from Food truck and it was a little bit cheaper than Nguyen's. Anyhow, the steak was very delicious and very juicy, and chicken was a little dry maybe because it was was already cooked, and their cook throw it on stove to warmed up but I really liked it. I will definitely go back to Nguyen's. read more

Pick anything on the menu it's gonna be good and cheap. Best reliable late night Asian food!!!

what happened to the quality of this restaurant? this is my forth time coming to this location and it was good before.....Today, For waiting 30min for my food order you think the quality of food is good but the pork sandwich is not fresh. The meat is dry with bits of burnt pieces. The bread looks like a baguette but taste like a regular soft white bread. The popcorn chicken wasn't great either... read more

Delicious! I got the steak bowl and the Cajun fries. Both were given in generous amounts and delicious. I plan to return!

Good was amazing. Had the bulgogi short rib sandwich. Also had egg rolls. No complaints there. But the service?! Whoa. Atrocious. The place was completely empty when I walked in. She couldn't be bothered to look up and give a greeting. Seemed like I was inconveniencing her by coming into her place of business. Hopefully the other staff members take a more concerted effort to grow this startup. read more

Unassuming location with late night hours and an interesting menu alongside great interior design. I came here 30 minutes before closing and was greeted by a sweet and professional girl who was very helpful answering questions about the menu. I ordered CAJUN FRIES with FRIED EGG, GARLIC NOODLES with PORK and a MANGO GREEN TEA. The fries were good but could be better, they weren't cooked evenly. The fried egg was a nice touch. The garlic noodles were tasty but i felt something was missing, next time ill try them with another item instead of fries. As for the Mango green tea, I'm a sucker for specialty drinks and they didnt disappoint. Togo order food containers dont match the theme of the business. All-in-all I settled on giving this location 4 stars with a promise to follow up. Although I feel this location can hit a 5 star after trying more of the menu, I suspect it will stay a 4, which isnt bad for a place open till 1am. read more

Cons: garlic Noodles were unfortunately dry and cut into small pieces, my stomach felt really unwell afterwards. Pros: The Bulgogi sandwich was good and customer service was good ass well and it's really cute inside. read more

I first discovered this place over three months ago when I went in just to look at their menu and I saw that they had Bahn Mi sandwiches. so I took a chance, and I tried the beef Bulgogi bánh mì and oh my gosh! That was the most bomb Diggity sandwich that I've had in a long time the bread was soft, the meat was season, well, and it had all the little pickled veggies on it like it was supposed to, but the kicker was this sweet, jalapeño, cilantro sauce, that they give you, that just sits there sandwich in a whole different stratosphere. I do have to say that they do add a lot of cilantro on the top, so if you're not into cilantro, like that, I was suggest you tell them easy on the cilantro. I have yet to try any of the other dishes because I'm kind of stuck on the sandwich, but I heard that the garlic noodles are very good too read more

Nguyen's Kitchen - Beef Bulgolgi bahn mi Bulgogi Short Rib Steak Sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - South Gate, California

A fast food type of restaurant. Asian/Vietnamese fusion. You order at the counter and they call when your food is ready. I tried the garlic noodles with bulgogi beef and added egg. It was tasty. I will come back to try other items on the menu! read more

What a great find. We placed an order online and it was ready in 20 minutes. Parking was easy to find in the plaza. There were two gentlemen working in the front and both provided a friendly service. We ordered the bulgogi short rib steak sandwich, crawfish pasta, grilled pork rice bowl and a green milk tea. All were delicious, but I would have to say the sandwich and rice bowl were better than the pasta. The pasta had great flavor but it was a bit too spicy for me. However, if you like a spicy pasta, then try the crawfish pasta. The green milk tea was refreshing and had the right amount of sweetness. Overall, great place and they open late! I definitely would recommend this place, if you are in the area. read more

Food was great. We ordered the garlic noodles, garlic fries, wings and salad. Everything was tasty and fresh. Service was fast and friendly. Camela and Antonio were friendly and helpful and had our food out as fast. Will be back for sure. read more

I've been to 3 locations and this kitchen is not one of my favorites. It was first time trying out this location so I was expecting the same delicious food. Comparing to the other kitchens, my garlic noodles were dry and overly seasoned - which was not a good thing for this particular dish. The service was meh - the employee seemed a little bothered by my presence and annoyed that I was customizing my meal. Bottom line, the egg rolls are a 10/10 compared to the entree which I would rate a 2. read more

Major disappointment. Everything looked and sounded so good, especially for a place open late. The entire meal was salty and oily, and I'm not one to shy away from greasy food. The garlic noodles sat in a pool of grease and the bulgogi sandwich was soggy and began to fall apart. The popcorn chicken was bland and had almost no spice to it even though we ordered it spicy. Honestly the only positive thing I can say about this experience was they had a decent music playlist. The host/server didn't even greet us upon arrival, leaning over the counter and ignoring the greeting I gave her. Overall I wouldn't give this place another chance. There's not a lot on the menu and they seemed to have missed the mark on their most popular items. read more

This place is one of our favorite spots! I just moved to Paramount and I'm so glad I found this place. They're open late and offer a unique Asian fusion cuisine experience. It's such a cute little restaurant inside too. Staff are very friendly and she remembers her customers! She greets everyone with a kind and friendly face while engaging in conversation. Try this s place. We love the garlic fires and garlic noodles. read more
