    Nha Cafe

    I went to their shared storefront Modo Hawaiian BBQ, a long time ago even before they were open for business. I remember walking in and they were totally surprised the door wasn't locked and yes, both stores were still under construction inside. Oops. Fast forward to today and they are no longer sharing that location apparently and only do pop-up events & catering for now. Thankfully, they were at a Yelp event and offered samples of a few of their drinks. The owner(s) and staff were super friendly and welcoming! They were delighted to explain the drinks and told us try them in the following order. *1. Classic Drip: bold, rich, and creamy Vietnamese coffee with sweetened milk. *2. Pandan Dream: creamy pandan leaf infused soymilk mixed with mung bean and coconut. *3. Orange Sunset: refreshingly light lemongrass tea mixed with peach and orange. I look forward to when they have their own storefront.

    I have been following their IG page for a while and had no idea they were going to be at the 365 Night Market until we started walking around! I would have ordered the whole menu if I could but we were stuffed, so my husband and I shared the Corn Cloud. This is a sweet corn milk topped with coconut foam, which was so refreshing!! It's also caffeine free so we were able to share with our kids who also really enjoyed it. My favorite part was the level of customer service though. They were all so nice! I really hope they will get their own storefront soon, because they deserve it! Any business owners who will go out of their way to get to know their customers just a bit more really make a lasting impression and makes me want to support them even more. Unfortunately we don't live in the area but if I could come buy more drinks from them I would! But for now I will just spread the word and make sure to recommend them to all of you reading this review!

    Pandan Dream (20 oz)

    I found out about Nha from a friend's Instagram story and then went to check it out myself! At the time, they were at Modo's drive thru and it was honestly perfect because it was so close to home (meaning almost weekly/bi-weekly trips lol). The drinks are amazing, one might even say "love at first sip", my favorites are the pandan and orange sunset. The corn cloud is really interesting, it's sweet and a subtle sweet corn flavor. The tamarind drink is awesome, I don't think I've had a tamarind drink before either and I really enjoyed it! It's nice too because it can be made without peanuts if you have allergies! All the drinks are really refreshing and delicious, not too sweet and bright in flavor. I've also been fortunate to catch them doing pop ups at marketplaces like SJMade! No notes and I have Nha on my list of businesses to reach out to asap to cater for a future event if they still offer it in the next couple of years! I must say that Brandon and Sandra are the most kindest, passionate, and positive/optimistic people and business owners I have ever met. I wish them nothing but the best in finding their own shop this year to continue their dream.

    Finally got to try Nha after seeing them vendor so many events in the South Bay! I got the Pandan Dream drink since pandan is one of my favorite flavors and it did NOT disappoint! It was delicious and I wish I got more. The workers were so lovely and sweet too. I can't wait to order some family style bottles from them.

    I've had this place bookmarked for some time, and I finally got to try it recently. We got to learn a little bit about Nha Cafe from one of the owners. It's currently a pop-up, and it's owned by him and his wife. The owner was really nice and friendly. I ordered the Pandan Dream, which is soy-milk based with subtle hints of pandan and mung bean. This drink was delicious. It was definitely on the sweeter side, but I still really enjoyed it. All of the flavors meshed well together, and I loved it. Good luck to Nha Cafe and hoping to see a permanent store front one day!

    Corn Cloud
    Neha N.

    First time I tried Nha Cafe was when they were just starting out and only had a few reviews. I wanted to try the Corn Cloud but it was unavailable when I went, so I tried the tiramisu latte which I felt was underwhelming. Didn't want to review or rule them out! Finally got to try the Corn Cloud and omg it's amazing!! This is the 3rd corn drink Ive tried over the last couple of months and it's the clear winner. The person taking my order was super friendly and asking me if I had been before and would love to hear my thoughts. He told me to take a sip of the coconut cream on top before stirring it to drink. I did so at the window and told him it was delicious! I want to try their Pandan drink too, and hope they come out with something ube. I will probably keep repeating the corn cloud though :)

    Nha Cafe is my favorite pop up for drinks at festivals and markets! Their Pandan Dream and Orange Sunset are the perfect refreshing drinks you'll search for after time spent strolling around. Truly memorable and I can definitely see why it's part of their signature items. The Orange Sunset is a peach orange lemongrass tea with a balance of sweet and sour. It has a strong taste but it's not too overpowering with the orange or lemongrass. The Pandan Dream is sweet and light, perhaps floral even. I appreciate how their drinks are not watered down. Recently, I tried their Dirty Pandan because I was intrigued by their new phin drip series. It's a secret menu item ;) This is my favorite drink by far. The bold Vietnamese phin dripped coffee paired with the creamy pandan milk is such a wonderful combination. I would highly recommend as a huge lover of both Viet coffee and pandan. You'll get the best of both worlds if you try! I love how they specialize in unique flavors to introduce another side of Vietnamese palates. The owners are very friendly and there's little to no wait for their drinks even if there's a line. Overall, the concept of Nha Cafe is adorable and I would love for them to have a storefront of their own soon.

    Very lovely and sweet service from the owners. Their menu is simple but that's how you can get consistent quality drinks. My friend and I ordered Pandan dream and Corn cloud. I first knew about Nha Cafe on Instagram and finally got a chance to try it out. Even my other foodie friends recommended this place to me. Unfortunately, Nha Cafe owners are going to be out of the country so they will be back in February 2025. They even sell cute crochet characters. The flavors definitely resembles authentic Vietnamese desserts. First sip of the corn cloud and I was in love. It had a prominent sweet corn milk flavor (similar to Vietnamese dessert chè). Pandan dream was yummy as well. I love the color and taste. Great price and size for the drinks. Can't wait to revisit when they return!!

    First tried Nha at SJMade 2025 & was blown away by the flavors & amazing service by the duo who ran the booth. My friends & I ordered the Pandan Dream & Corn Cloud and were super impressed with how present the flavors of the drinks were. The drinks were super refreshing on a hot day but a bit on the sweeter end. Unfortunately, they had run out of the Orange Sunset by the time we arrived so we missed out on that one. Would definitely seek them out again at the next event they're at.

    THIS DRIVE THRU IS THE BOMB.COM If you haven't been to Nha, what are you even doing? You're missing out if you haven't been yet! Nha serves up Vietnamese-inspired drinks and everything on the menu is good. NEW! Tamarind Breeze - Roasted peanuts, pineapple, tamarind syrup (for those who loved Keo Me) Pandan Dream - Pandan soy milk, mung bean, coconut (pandan soy milk nostalgia, anyone?) Orange Sunset - Lemongrass tea, peach, orange (super refreshing and perfectly balanced!) Corn Cloud - Corn milk, coconut foam (think Che Bap in a drink!) Each drink impressed me, bringing out those familiar Vietnamese flavors I grew up with. You can't go wrong with any of the choices, but if I had to pick one, corn cloud is my choice! KEEP IN MIND: Nha is drive-thru only, so just look for the green sign they share with Modo, and you'll know you're at the right spot.

    Pandam Dream
    Eric H.

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't busy. This place is currently drive-through only. They also show up at events so check their social media accounts from time to time to find out where they'll be. Their drinks are non-customizable and have a small selection, but each of their drinks are amazing! My favorite is the pandam dream, very creamy and flavorful pandam taste. The best pandam drink I've ever had!

    Menu - June 2024
    Eric S.

    Brandon and his team are awesome. We're so happy to be (semi)-regulars at Nha. The pandan drink is to die for honestly. Drive-in only though! Pandan Dream 10/10: Floral, sweet, and refreshing. It's just so good and caffeine-free too! My favorite. Corn Cloud 7.5/10: It's really good, and perfect for a corn lover. I personally found it great for the first 3 sips, but it feels overpowering and could use less sweetener. Very strong corn flavor :) Orange Sunset 7/10 Gave this one to my brother and he only took two sips before saying it was far too sweet for him. The syrup had maybe not mixed well and was perhaps heavy-handed to begin with. Either way, I do highly recommend visiting Nha!!

    Tamarind Breeze (5/5 stars, $7) and Pandan Dream Family Style (5/5 stars, $30)
    Melanie H.

    Nha Cafe is so yummy! Love the pandan soy milk and tamarind drink. The owners are super sweet too and are pretty responsive on Instagram to check in on available stock. They now serve "family style" drinks (59 oz) to bring home for any occasion. PANDAN DREAM: 5/5 ($7) + MUST try! The drink is literally the perfect sua dau nanh with a hint of pandan and mung bean, which is not grainy at all! + On the sweeter side so I like letting the ice dilute TAMARIND BREEZE: 5/5 ($7) + MUST try! So refreshing, tangy, and sweet. Kinda reminds me of the Mexican tamarind candies + Peanuts are a nice addition for texture

What I LOVE from SJ Eggrolls is the garlic noodles with the garlic butter shrimp. IT SO DELICIOUS! One of the best garlic noodles I've ever had and the shrimp was tasty. Shrimp was cooked perfectly and the shell was soft to eat. Another item I love here is the banh khot! So crispy, fresh, and fried well. Very limited seating, this is more of a take out spot.

I was particularly excited about the Banh Khot and netted eggrolls the most, but they mentioned that the eggrolls were unfortunately sold out that day (we came in around lunchtime on a weekend) We ordered the banh khot and garlic shrimp noodles and ate them at home, and both were delicious!! The banh khot was warm and crunchy. I love when you can taste hints of coconut and when the garlic is suuuper strong lol The garlic noodles were alright tbh. The noodles were a little hard but the shrimp was cooked perfectly! They're definitely meant to be more of a takeout spot. They were pushing out party trays like crayyyy when we were there. I'd definitely keep them in mind for these occasions in the future!

Despite it being in a big lot, parking still took a while to find. Thankfully, we had thankfully just beat the lunch rush and not had to wait longer than 10 minutes for a table. My friend and I shared a Northern spread (Bun Cha Ha Noi) and a Southern style Goat Curry (Banh Mi Cari De). Service was definitely on the slower side that day, but thankfully we were proactive at getting the orders in. The Bun Cha Ha Noi was delicious - pretty much a DIY spring roll - all the fun, all the mess, with none of the clean up other than licking the plates clean. The pork belly was delicious; I was surprised how much I liked it, since I'm not a fan of pork. I devoured numerous rolls, and we also had some extra vermicelli to finish off the rest of the protein. This single meal was definitely more than enough for two! The Banh Mi Cari De (goat curry) was unfortunately quite the opposite. The goat was cooked very well - tough, gamy, and difficult to eat. There were probably six pieces in total, our first was tender, our second had bone, a little harder to chew, and the last was best compared to rubber. The curry was a bit watery, which made the banh mi soggy when dipped in. This was probably an adventurous try, but not a dish I'd ever consider ordering again.

It's a grilled tumeric fish dish that packs a ton of flavor, and you add noodles and herbs to make a delish spring roll (or in my case a fat burrito). It comes out on a sizzling plate so you have to let it cook a bit to render the onions and dill to get that perfect texture. The sauce might be a bit fishy to some, but it's what ties the bite together! It's def an acquired taste, but if you are open to trying new things, please come try this speciality dish. Tip: on Wednesdays, this dish is only $28, whereas the OG price is around $36. The fried rice here was surprisingly super flavorful! You can taste the separate grains (which is when you know the cook on the rice is good) and the salt levels were top tier. I would come back and get this togo if I was too lazy to create my own food with the spring rolls. Overall, you are here for the food, not the service and decor.

It's the best out of all their flavors offered. Can't go wrong with ordering it. Crunchy, hot, slightly sweet and garlicky. Service: 5/5 stars. Greeted and seated quickly. Environment: 5/5 stars. Clean and plenty of space between tables. Bathroom is clean and tidy.

    Went here recently on a Sunday and had a wonderful experience from the moment we arrived. Trung was…read moregreat to interact with. We ordered a large bun Bo hue, a large pho luc lac, fried rice with ribeye cooked medium level (as recommended), Bo luc lac with tomato flavored rice, and a chicken pho ap chao to share amongst 3 adults and 4 kids. Everything we ordered was delicious, tasty, and the portion size were very good and perfect for sharing. I was pleasantly surprised with the pho ap chao, it was really tasty and crispy and a dish I have not tried before. We really enjoyed everything but the Bo luc lac (shaken beef) was super tender and the beef was flavorful! This is a must try in my opinion! This restaurant is clean and tidy and has cute decors of bamboo hats hung from the ceiling and remind me of being back in Vietnam again. Staffs were attentive as customers entered. Plenty of parking spaces in the plaza. I will definitely come back here for everything I tried during my visit and to try more when in the area or on the way back from Santa Cruz. This will also be a great place to grab Togo for picnics or for hiking as well! My kids are already asking to come back to the restaurant after our first time there. So glad to know of another Vietnamese restaurant that has so many yummy dishes in SJ!

    this place is such comforting food for me. my parents have been taking me since i was young, and…read morethis is our go-to for this particular viet dish called bún măng vịt, which is vermicelli noodles, duck meat, and bamboo shoots! bún măng vịt - i loooove the sauce they have here. you put a bit in the soup but careful to not too much since it could get salty, and i love dipping my chicken/duck into the sauce!! the sauce really does complete this dish. i really appreciate that you can ask for more sauce for free any time. inside is colorful and is what you can expect from a little asian restaurant. we came at 1pm on a sunday and it was pretty busy, so the staff took a bit of time to take our orders and provide water. parking can be tough since the lot for this particular area is small, so i just park in the plaza next to it.

    I'm a bit conflicted about this place. The restaurant is small and not very fancy, but the food is…read moreaffordable, the portions are generous, and the taste is good. It's not outstanding, but it's definitely enjoyable. Unfortunately, the service ruined the experience. As soon as I sat down, I hadn't even had a chance to look through the whole menu before the server kept touching my shoulder and repeatedly pressured me to order. I found it very rude and uncomfortable because I really don't like strangers touching me. The older lady did it to everyone in our table, and she didn't seem to realize she was making our entire group uncomfortable, and it affected our whole dining experience. So, would I come back? Absolutely not. One visit was more than enough. I'm not willing to deal with that kind of pushy service again.
