Nom Nom Restaurant and Grill is a family-owned Thai and Vietnamese eatery at 801 C St in downtown Vancouver, Washington. Diners come for large plates of Southeast Asian comfort food served in an industrial-style room with a bar and outdoor seating.
The menu covers both Thai and Vietnamese cooking, and the restaurant is currently promoting a new menu (source: Yelp). Regulars often single out the drunken noodles for their well-judged heat. The crispy duck curry also draws praise for its tender meat and rich sauce (source: Wheree). Portions run generous, so sharing several dishes works well for families and groups. Exposed, industrial finishes give the dining room a relaxed, casual feel. The patio is a good choice in warmer months.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Nom Nom splits its day into two services. On Mondays it is open 11:00 am to 2:30 pm for lunch, then 4:00 pm to 9:30 pm for dinner, and it closes between those windows. Plan around that afternoon gap (source: Yelp). Arrive early in the lunch window or after 7:30 pm for a quieter table. Weekend evenings tend to fill up fastest. To skip the wait, order takeout directly through the official website. You can also call (360) 718-7360 to confirm hours before visiting. The restaurant sits in walkable downtown Vancouver, a few blocks from Esther Short Park, so it pairs easily with a stroll toward the Columbia River waterfront.
