Amazing chicken rice!

Kei concepts always with great food. Unique dishes with great flavor.

Sadly, this location is not up to par with the fountain valley location. Usually love the mango squid salad but it could've used more dressing and the herbs could have been more chopped up!

One of my favorite places in OC! We got the shrimp toast (definitely a must), the beef tongue fried rice (amazing), and the egg yolk pasta with crab (on the heavier side). For drinks we both got the sugarcane kumquat which was the perfect palette cleanser.

Nep Cafe is a favorite for a reason. Their happy hour deals are great, and the fried chicken wings are seriously some of the best. The drinks are strong and creative—definitely worth coming back for.
