Great food and quite busy! My recommendation would be the fish (sea bass) with mango sauce, so fresh and yum! I noticed this high street has multiple Vietnamese restaurants, landed on this one due to the great reviews and am not disappointed! Service was good, especially considering how busy the place was. Food was fast! Paid in cash. Overall great experience and would recommend it!

I left Vietnam 6 years ago, and was transported back with the atmosphere, the friendly service and the authentic Northern Bun Cha Hà Nội flavours. Just a shame there was no Huda bia! I’ll definitely be coming back to taste more options. Cảm ơn nhiều, hẹn gặp lại!

Charming restaurant with excellent service and bold flavours. I thought the lemon and kumquat kombucha was excellent! Very zesty. 😋 We enjoyed the spicy shiitake mushrooms and tofu aubergine curry the most, but everything was delicious and I hope to return again soon.

Me and my friend went to try Nem Nem randomly as we were walking by. What a fresh bowl of delight. Really tasty food, lovely atmosphere and service. Highly recommend

Second visit and was better than the first. The golden pancake is devine and the vegan spring rolls out of this world. Service is great and super reasonable. One of the best restaurants on upper street. Go try you wont be disappointed. Lovely vibe too it’s actually atmospheric not just bright light.

Our beloved local! We have been coming here for years and they’ve always had amazing vegan options - we’ve tried the whole menu by now and we’re always impressed with the quality, imagination and deliciousness . Service is always great. Highly recommend the vegan hanoi fish & fried mushrooms!

This is a Cash only place. Delicious food with loads of vegan options. I had the vegan chicken cashew and vegan fried rice which was so yummy. My friend had the vegan tofu Bun sa salad which she loved. The ambience is fantastic as the decor is super inviting. We both had the blossoming tea: oriental beauty which was green tea, marigold and jasmine. It was lush and fun to watch the flower blossom. Staff are attentive and friendly.

Very good independent Vietnamese restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, and I heartily recommend the chicken wings as they were a lovely unique take on them. The betel beef rolls were also delicious. All the dishes that we had were really good. Lemon and kumquat drink was lovely and extremely refreshing! All the food was very reasonably priced. Staff were extremely efficient and also friendly. Only thing I would say is it’s a small restaurant so prepare to be packed in close to other people.

We really enjoyed our food here. This was the second time I'd eaten here - first time was a take out and I enjoyed the summer rolls and chicken salad. Both very nice and filling. This time I went for the BÚN NEM THT NNG (Sliced Charcoal grilled pork & spring rolls on rice vermicelli and "Mam Dam" -Dipping fish sauce) and it was delicious. Bun is my favourite Vietnamese food and I tend to choose it a lot! This was a really good bun with a good flavour mix and fresh vegetables. The meat was deliciously chargrilled. Price wise, in line with Angel restaurants I would say. I would rate it as a ££ not a £££ as it is on Yelp.

I went to Nem Nem on the recommendation of a vegan friend as they have a non meat menu. The food was atrocious. Slimy fake meat slices in a watery broth. They kept asking me to remind them of my order. They forgot to provide plates. I thought that it was dire. Never again.

We were planning to eat sushi across the street, but the place was closed so we decided to have a dinner here. Nice decorations and ambiance but when the food arrived I was disappointed with the portion size - not enough for even one person, and the flavor. Everything we ordered was pretty much "meh". If you been in Hanoi or anywhere in South East Asia you know that each dish has so much taste and spices to it, but here they must be trying to blend in with bland British food. Prices were higher than you expect for the portion size. Won't recommend it to anyone.

Had a wonderful meal here! Friendly staff, amazing and reasonably priced food. Highly recommend the "self-rolling table griddle beef" - unbelievably tasty and fresh. The pho was great too but wasn't blown away by it. Some of the better vietnamese food I've had that is reasonably priced.

Good for the price. I've been walking past this place for ages, always wanted to try it out, and only did because the initial place we went to was fully booked. I had a Chicken Pho (my favourite Vietnamese dish). The broth was rather watery without much flavour. There really wasn't much to the additional ingredients. Filling, yes, tasty no. My friend had the grilled fish which she thoroughly enjoyed. So maybe it depends what you have. Check out other reviews and make your choice from there, as currently I'm. Sitting on the fence ;)

Having read early reviews of this restaurant, I was a bit worried. But my experience was very different. The food tasted good, portion is huge! The chicken Pho i had here was the one with the most chicken meat I've ever had, and i am a big fan of chicken pho and tried many Vietnamese places in London. The silky tofu was really good and this set lunch menu - 10 pounds for two courses is not bad at all in the area. So either they've got a new chef or they've listened to the critics and improved. My only concern is the pho is a bit greasy like our Chinese food so if you are not into oily food you probably should mention that in advance

So, this place has been open for about two months and I'm averaging a visit a fortnight. Clearly I'm enjoying it - given the many many choices on Upper Street and my desire to visit them all, Nem Nem is definitely worth a visit (or several in my case). The service is friendly, the decor is lovely, and the food is great. I'm a big fan of Bun Cha and this is a tasty offering. I also had Pho on a rainy Monday as it was clearly a soup day, and that was also very lovely. With all the options in Angel, I'm pleased to have Vietnamese added to the list, especially one that delivers food this good.

Authentic Vietnamese, fresh, great flavours and friendly service. Will be coming back for more

Popped in here today on a lark and thought it might be a little fancy for a lazy lunch, but it was reasonably priced and really very good. We both ordered the classic pho with rare beef and broth was flavorful and rich, but still light. The summer rolls were a small portion, but tasty and fresh. I'd go again!

Great meal, great value, great service. Had the chicken vermicelli noodle - could have done with a little bit more flavour.

Not very authentic. Got a fly in my Pho broth. Overall not fantastic. There are many more authentic places out there.
