Delivers Unb e l i evable Taste!

How was Viet-Nomz created?

It’s a simple story, actually. In March 2015, two friends dreamed of opening their own dinner and coffee shop. As they were eating at a dine-in Vietnamese restaurant, they realized there was no casual, quick-eat setting for Vietnamese cuisine and coffee. After much discussion and brainstorming, they decided to turn their dream into reality.

Why are the tastes so delectable?

As people grow more health conscious today, they demand nutritious and honest meals in their daily life. That is why the Nomz team serves fresh produce and meat in our entire menu. Our broth is simmered with care to bring a breath of fresh pho in your life. We’ve introduced a unique twist to the Vietnamese cuisine and want each of our customers to experience that in each and every one of our bowls. The fast-casual Vietnamese eatery specializes in noodle soups, rice/noodle bowls, iced coffees, and popular street fare. Located in the former Jimmy John’s across Target and Publix, the restaurant will be the third Viet-Nomz location in Central Florida and designated as ‘Viet-Nomz Lake Mary’.

Are you expanding?

Yes! Viet-Nomz is known for establishing the first

contemporary Vietnamese counter-service restaurant, and first opened its doors in 2016 in Winter Park. The newest location will be the largest store to date with roughly 1830 sq ft. of seating for up to 45 guests. The decor is inspired by the streets of Saigon, emulating the atmosphere of food cart vendors commonly found in Asia. “My partners and I are thrilled to finally be opening our store in Lake Mary. As a Lake Mary High ‘07 alumni, I’m excited to bring this concept to my hometown. There’s been a demand for new and fresh restaurant concepts in town and I believe we can help elevate the foodie scene here.” said Chris Chen, operating partner of Viet-Nomz, LLC.

The restaurant has brought 20 new jobs to the area, with team member positions ranging from hourly to management level!
