Luckily, our server was very attentive and we received everything very quickly. Modern interior with an elevated feeling but it does get quite loud especially with the walls kinda echoing everyone's voices. All of the dishes were very delicious. If I were to recommend my top options I would say the fillet mignon banh mi chao, chicken wings, Vietnamese shrimp salad, and xoi man were my favorites. The drinks were also all very yummy. Would highly recommend!

Seated after a 5 min wait for lunch on the weekend! Great service and a bright sunny ambiance…read more For food, everything was good and well presented but a little pricey for what it was. - Crab toast: very mild and creamy flavor, loved the toasted sourdough. - Xoi man: highly recommended by our server. Sticky rice with assorted toppings, lots of Chinese flavors on this. - Seafood tom kha pasta: my personal favorite out of everything we ordered. Strong flavors and interesting take with the pasta noodles. I've heard great things about the disassembled banh mi, will have to try that next time.

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!

The atmosphere is modern, lively, and welcoming, making it a great place for both casual lunches and special dinners. The food is outstanding.

The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and every bite is packed with bold, well-balanced flavors. Whether you're ordering one of their signature entrées, appetizers, or sides, everything tastes thoughtfully prepared and consistently delicious. The service is another highlight. Despite how busy the restaurant gets, the staff are friendly, attentive, and efficient. The food arrives quickly, and the team makes sure you have everything you need throughout your meal.

We came around 11:45am today (july 3) and was originally told it'd be a 45-1 hour wait, which was fine. After waiting around for about maybe less then 10 mins, i got a text that our table was ready. Lucky for us, a group of 6 cancelled so we got seated right away. Its beautiful inside & very spacious. However the bathrooms could use a little fixing.

Stopped by around noon on a Sunday and had no wait to be seated. Since it's located at South Coast…read morePlaza, parking was easy with plenty of spaces available in the surrounding lots. Service was attentive throughout the meal, with the staff checking in regularly without being intrusive. There was no lunch rush when we went, making for a nice, calm brunch atmosphere. The lychee lemonade came with unlimited refills, which was a nice bonus. It tasted how you'd expect from a classic lemonade with a noticeable lychee flavor, and had lychee pulp throughout. We ordered several dishes to share. The Calamari was a good appetizer. It had a light, crispy coating with good seasoning, and the dipping sauce paired nicely with it. We also tried the Carne Asada Fries, which were loaded with flavor. The meat was well-seasoned, and the sauces tied everything together without overwhelming the fries. The Garlic Noodles with filet were a solid choice. The noodles were flavorful, and the filet was cooked well, tender and juicy. The Fried Rice with Pork Jowl was probably my favorite dish. The pork jowl was rich, tender, and packed with flavor, and the fried rice complemented it really well, offsetting the fattiness. For being at South Coast Plaza, I thought the prices were fairly reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. It's not somewhere I can afford every week, but it's a great option when you're looking for a nicer lunch while shopping. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

The service is just as good here. Friendly and the food came out quickly. When you walk into this side of the building - you get a hint of a lot of garlic. Maybe not a thing for others, but it lead the way for me. They have a bar and seating inside and outside. Not as big as you would think, but utilized the space perfectly. 100% ribeye garlic noodles and pear salad is a must have. I would recommend to others and would come back for more
