" On my first outing to Cao Nguyên, I must say I was quite pleased. The beef stir-fry was perfectly cooked, but they really could enhance their vegetable selection. The ambiance was welcoming, and the ambiance was clean. Staff was courteous the whole time. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re looking for Vietnamese food that stays true to its roots, Cao Nguyên is the place! I loved the sweet and sour soup as well as the catfish. Some dishes from my past visits have been a hit or miss, but the overall experience remains positive. I’m sure to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had lunch at Cao Nguyên recently and went with my go-to order of pho. It was pretty solid, yet I found it not as rich as other places I’ve tried. The service was pleasant, and it’s definitely a bustling family dining atmosphere. I might come back to explore other dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re in San Jose looking for authentic Vietnamese food, look no further than Cao Nguyên! Their hot pot was first-rate, rich in flavors but lacking a bit in the variety of vegetables. Nonetheless, it’s definitely a place I’ll return to in order to try more dishes full of zest and flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cao Nguyên has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming. I loved their oysters, however, the portion sizes do fluctuate. I hope for consistency on my next visit. Service was adequately fast, which I appreciated. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner at Cao Nguyên last week, and while the atmosphere was charming, the food didn’t quite deliver on authenticity. My spring rolls were fresh but didn’t have that familiar taste I expected. The service was helpful, but my dish came out a bit late. It was a decent experience overall, but I think I’ll try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Superb! We had a delightful family dinner at Cao Nguyên last week. Each dish brought a unique flavor, and the family-style dining was fun. The staff were quick and responsive, making our experience even better. Clean and casual vibe, perfect for family time! " (*Curated Review*)
