    Comfortable and clean Viet seafood spot. All dishes were perfectly flavore - Razor clams: piece I had had small meat with half stuck to the shell. The sauces , fresh chilis, and fresh herbs made it exciting to eat, 3/5 - Snails in coconut sauce: fun to suck out the snails, not too chewy, coconut sauce is rich and delicious, 5/5 - Chili squid: tentacles were nice and crispy. Bold flavours, not too spicy, green sauce was a nice complement, 4/5 - Scorched rice: can't go wrong with this. Bonus tip - pls dunk it in that delicious coconut broth from the snails YUM! 5/5 - Salted fish fried rice: strong salted fish flavour, good sized portion, 4.5/5 - Snap peas: perfectly cooked with an addictive crunch. However unnecessarily greasy, 2.5/5 - Duck: very chewy and hard to eat. Taste was good for what it's worth, 1.5/5 Total came to $28/pp, total 6 people with 18% service fee

    A casual restaurant where the food is punching above its weight. Phuong Nam seems like a pretty typical casual strip mall restaurant. Casual and friendly service. Very casual atmosphere. But the food was on point. Flavors were good. Noodle textures were perfect. Ingredients tasted fresh. Meat was juicy. You can tell whoever is responsible for the kitchen cares about food. The giant clam with garlic vermicelli, the mixed dry noodles, and raw beef salad where all fantastic. Recommended for a delicious and casual meal.

    My partner and I embarked on this epic quest last night--an hour-long drive to Phuong Nam. Was it worth it? Oh, you bet your garlic butter it was! First up, the sweet snails with garlic butter were tiny escargot twirling around in a buttery tango. Next, the steamed clams with vermicelli waltzed their way onto our plates danced harmoniously with the nice warm rice. Lastly, the water spinach was crunchy, refreshing, and full of surprises. The finisher was the garlic condiments--those unsung heroes. We scraped every last bit off the plate. It's like they whispered, "Hey, buddy, we're the secret sauce. You're welcome!" We really scrapped EVERYTHING clean like this was our last meal before we die. The ambiance? Perfect for any group size. Whether you're a duo, a trio, or a whole squad of hungry adventurers, Phuong Nam's got your back. The waitstaff were attentive and kind, like your favorite aunt who always tops up your wine glass. As we left, we made a pact: Next time, we're diving headfirst into their hot pot probably with a bigger group. Because life's too short for bland dinners, my friend!
