We loved our dinner at Nue! The food was delicious and fresh. We got the family style new years dinner menu and it was perfect. The manager and waitstaff were so kind and friendly— really added to the experience. There is also a fun dice game for new years and my friends won a prize! All in all the experience felt great and we will definitely be back.

Upon entering the restaurant, it took a while for someone to greet and acknowledge my family, which was a bit disappointing. However, once we were seated, everything was amazing. The food was excellent, and the ambience was quite pleasant. Overall, a wonderful dining experience despite the initial wait.
