" We visited Cao Nguyên for dinner, and it was nothing short of amazing! The variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes really stood out. The pho was a highlight, rich and flavorful, just like I had it in Vietnam. Service was quick and friendly, making our dining experience even better. Definitely planning to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cao Nguyên became my favorite Vietnamese go-to place! Everything is fresh and the flavors burst in your mouth. The sweet and sour soup is out of this world! Service was exemplary, and the ambiance felt welcoming. I also appreciate their reasonable pricing for high-quality meals. I can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" My last visit to Cao Nguyên was disappointing. I was given wrong dishes, and when I pointed it out, the staff was dismissive. The food itself didn’t overwhelm me, either. I had high hopes based on previous visits but was let down. I may consider revisiting, but it will be a while. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been coming to Cao Nguyên for years and have always enjoyed the food. The menu is diverse, with some dishes I could try through the years. My favorite is their sweet-sour soup! Each bite is a burst of flavors, and the portion is just right. The service has improved over the years, too, making dining here a pleasant experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn’t enjoy my experience at Cao Nguyên as much as I hoped. I found the portions to be on the smaller side given the prices, and the flavors were a little too strong for me. Perhaps others might appreciate it more, but I left disappointed after hearing so many good things about the place. It's worth a try but just keep in mind it may vary between dishes. " (*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*)
