Chef Nem Kitchen To Go

The mac and cheese is a must try, very rich in flavor. By far my favorite of the 3 things i tried. I also tried the fried salmon bites which were served with a sweet and sour sauce. The combination was good and the salmon had a nice fried texture. And finally, had the lamb chops which were served with a Carolina gold sauce. An unexpected but delicious pair.

Loveeee Chef Nem. The hot honey chicken tenders are sooo yummy and really what draws me back here. There is not seating inside so really you just put your order in and wait in your car until they text you letting you know it's ready and then take it to go, hence the name. Their lemonade is also really tastey and a great addition to the meal. The service is fine too. Nothing has gone wrong for me when I have ordered or picked up my food so I don't really have much to say about that. Otherwise, a great spot to try especially being so close to the University of Cincinnati!

This diamond in the rough can be found in the heart of Avondale where delicious dishes are created for a decent price. Salmon, lamb chops and shrimp are abundant on the menu, over a bed of creamy, cajun alfredo penne or fries. Chef Nem is a gem and a gentleman. He took good care of every customer that walked in with assistance of his efficient staff. No doubt this establishment is ground floor, and it's a small store front with two windows; one to take your order and the other to pick up after they call your phone. Wait time is about 15-20 minutes.They are closed Monday and Tuesday, and we went on Wednesday, so they had a revolving door of hungry customers. (They take orders online as well, though I found it difficult to do).Security mans the narrow and bumpy parking lot and opens the door for customers. Patrons driving in make it make sense for everyone to get in and out without issue. We ordered wingdings with garlic parmesan, which were so tender and perfectly doused in sauce. We also had the salmon cajun alfredo penne. So creamy and seasoned just right. The salmon was a little over grilled but forgiving. They also have asparagus, ya'll!!!!!Chef Nem personally brought my order out to me and opened the door with a smile to exit the building. There's so much more in the menu to try. We will definitely be back!

If you go, expect a wait since everything is made to order. You can place a text order with a minimum of $50 spend and paying in advance. The menu covers a decent range of food, with the specialty items being drippy tenders and loaded fries. The tenders lived up to the name and were definitely dripping in a delicious sauce. I would actually come back just to get a sampling of the sauces offered. The lemon garlic salmon fries were good, I just wish the fries had been a bit more well done and crispy vs kind of soggy beneath the toppings. In addition to the food, there is a homemade nemonade served that has a great strawberry peach flavor. This is a to go place only and it takes about 30-40 min to get your food so be prepared to either stay in the small parking lot or have something else to do in the area. In addition to the published menu, there is a person on site who provides desserts so save room!

Great food. Horrible text service with a delayed response time. Be prepared to wait. No dine in. Be sure you call or text WELL in advance.

How long are we supposed to wait for our food? The lady told me 30 minutes and here we are an hour later still no food not trying to tell anyone how to run the business but have to get better on a timing with those prices and I understand that you guys do a lot of Internet business, but there are no cars or not, a long line of people, but still, and our later in no food

The wait is absolutely ridiculous, especially when you order an hour and a half earlier...Will not be going back.

Everything, the service,the food and price. Nice portions. Very cordial attendees. The temperature of the food. The wait was not that bad.

Came here after a post on Chowdown Cincinnati, and was not disappointed with the food. However, we came unprepared to wait and spent 45 mins hangry in the car. This is definitely best ordered ahead of time by calling or texting. Wait was worth it though because the food was incredible. Not pictured was the Mac and cheese because I scarfed it down on the drive home. It was a small portion for the price though. Overall, if you get used to the way they do business you're in for some yummy food!

Food was amazing, best takeout food I've in a long time. Everything was seasoned to perfection. I had the salmon egg rolls and shrimp with salmon lemon garlic fries, so good. My daughter and niece had their honey and regular wings with cheese fries. They couldn't stop raving about food and can't wait to go back. We also got a side of the Mac we all tried and loved it and believe me we can be picky. You do have to wait a bit but it was well worth it! Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed!
