Gem Dining, Fountain Valley CA

Truly a gem. Possibly the best Asian fusion food in Orange County. The oysters, kampachi crudo, and Singaporean chili crab were just a few of the many delicious dishes we tried. Will definitely be dining here again. Outdoor seating is a huge plus as well.

I read somes reviews. And want to trying I agreed completely with another review nothing special, pictures only 3 I ordered total 5 items for two persons. The bill $140 had little to go. I did eat before honestly. I mostly concern the softsell crabs where they get it (in the us don’t have).

The food is good but they don’t take to go orders over the phone. You must drive there and wait in the parking lot to make an order.

I’ve also had to wait for my table when I had a reservation for 20 minutes, manager comes up to me and says he’s giving us complimentary bread for the wait and then charges us.

Really great experience. The dishes we got were really creative and tasted great. I felt the value was good as well as it wasn't insanely expensive compared to upscale dining in LA or the bay area.

Best Asian fusion restaurant in OC. Enough said. Try the laksa risotto, mushroom and wagyu, seared scallops and octopus appetizer. The sea bass was wonderful but maybe avoid the clams. I actually didn’t think the steak was all that flavorful. I like a more smoky flavor and not every restaurant smokes their meat enough.

Great spot for date night or celebrations. On the pricier side but worth the experience.
For food, would recommend Singaporean Soft Shell Crabs (not exactly Singapore chilli crabs but still delicious), Tom Yum Fettuccine, Laksa Risotto, Chilean Bass. For desserts, Sticky Toffee Pudding was my favorite! The 3 sorbet was also good (for those who don't like super sweet).
Drinks were all really good. Really liked Queen Bee and Coco Pandan

Came here for the first time and I must say it was a great experience. Yes the prices are on the higher side but the flavor & quality of the food was on point. The drinks were very strong and well worth it. The bone marrow was amazing!
This place is a must try.

A disappointment and the feed backs of this place are overly hyped. Had to try it and sure enough, I was majorly dissatisfied.

From starters to desserts Gem gave me a new experience when it comes to Vietnamese food. Came after the expo with coworkers and we had most of the menu and every fish without exception was fantastic. Favorites were the octopus and the uni. The best entree was the risotto by far. Finished with a few desserts as my favorite was the salted caramel brownie. Highly recommend.

Fantastic food and services Ambiance is reminiscent of NYC. The branzino was the best I’ve ever had. Definitely going back!

It’s a really nice fine dining restaurant in the middle of little Sai Gon. The service was very good. We were a little late for our reservation, but they still kept our spot. The environment is formally romantic, an ideal spot for a date night. I highly recommend

Interesting dishes, and eye catching presentations. Reasonably priced dishes. Not all the dishes were great (uni toast was overrated)

If you're looking for a place to overpay for food because they make it look really fancy, then this is the place for you! Really was not impressed - food was good and presentation was great, but every plate was small portions, and the flavors weren't exciting or different or anything that made me think "oh man, this is something I've never tasted before! I have to come here again for this! " For that, I'd say it's not really worth it.

The highlight was probably the desserts, but wouldn't recommend going just for that.
