Nguyen Seafood & Steakhouse

Love the location, the atmosphere, the service and the quality of the food!!! Very well managed and a must stop if you are ever near Uniontown!!! Don’t be afraid to sit at the bar and chat with the sushi chefs… they are very personable and you learn a lot about the business!

Nguyen is a gem of Uniontown. First I must say that they recently expanded within the last few months. With that being said, they have become short staffed at times, so service can be slow. Don’t let that deter you or stop you from coming back — have some patience. The food is BEYOND worth it. The tofu here is delicious. I encourage anyone to try it. It is prepared the right way. Their sushi is also extremely fresh and tasty. I have never had anything bad from here, including their hibachi type dinners and appetizers. I cannot say enough good things about this place.

Really great sushi! I took the family out for a nice dinner to celebrate out of town relatives visiting us. They loved it! The atmosphere is amazingly sophisticated and yet charming with Asian accents. Chairs are comfortable as well.
I shared the sushi boat with a friend and it was impressive with a huge variety. The chef took great pride in his work and later came over to greet us and ask if we were enjoying ourselves.
Emily the waitress was very sweet and even accommodated the special requests some at our table had. She did it with a pleasant smile and willingness to make our dining experience a good one.
Desserts are also heavenly! Save room!

Surprisingly sophisticated ambience. Menu offers a large variety of raw and cooked Asian inspired food. Our party of three waited over an hour for our sushi orders; we noted that 2 tables arriving after us received their sushi orders well ahead of us. Ended up missing our planned movie. The food, once received was quite good and was attractively presented. Not likely to make a return visit based on poor service.

I came here a few years ago and it was fantastic. The recent trip was a total bust. They told me there was an hour wait for sushi because of take out orders. We ordered spring rolls but only got one because they were out of wrappers??? The service was unbelievably slow. It will be my last trip

Great sushi. We got the sushi forc2. Great and ultra fresf. We also really like the shrimp firecrackers.

Can’t get better than this in uniontown! Very high quality & upscale dining family owned business who takes pride in what they deliver to your table!

Great food. I’ve enjoyed every roll I’ve had here. Appetizers are good too, however I have had two issues. First, they tend to run out of the best appetizers so you are never guaranteed to get them when you eat here. Second, the one time I ordered (non) crispy spring rolls they were stuffed with nothing but cilantro. Other than that, I am a huge fan and will not get sushi from any other place in the Pittsburgh area. BYOB here.

From the salad to the dessert I enjoyed every bite. Food tastes fresh and not like it was sitting in some freezer for weeks. Lots of options if you really like seafood and sushi. There are however two downsides, the seating and price. First, the seating feels a bit too narrow. I’m about 145 lbs at 5’6 and I can say I was bumping elbows and having to scoot every time someone behind me was getting in or out. Second is price which I can understand but doesn’t justify it 100%. Yes it’s «upscale» for Uniontown and it’s one of a kind with this area but is worth it? In my opinion I don’t think so for the seating area and smaller than average portions. But food is always good.

Nguyen is a higher grade Asian restaurant. They actually serve Thai ice tea and Asian beverage choices. Their avocado smoothie was out of this world. My daughter liked their mango smoothie.
The menu is extensive and their soup is really good.
The food presentation is absolutely fabulous. They take pride in how they prepare and deliver their food. Wait until I post my pic!
Their prices are obviously higher than your regular Asian fast food joint, but for the most part… rightfully so. Although the food presentation was top notch, other than my phenomenal seafood soup, I haven’t had a main course choice that tasted as «out of this world» as it looked. I wish I could remember what the name of my choices were. They just didn’t have a lot of flavor. If I heard their names… I would remember.
I was only there twice so maybe I just did not choose wisely. That was my only disappointment because the bill was high, and the appearance was amazing, but I think next time I will try the avocado lover roll, or crab cake choice… Or read Unilocal in search of recommendations… OR just have beverage, soup and desert.
But either way… I WILL be back.
I am posting pics. Unfortunately, I couldn’t help but down my avocado smoothie before taking a snap of it.
I am very sorry that I forget the name of my entrée. I think it started with a «P» and in the description, it says it is served with «plum sauce». If you ever get it, you might want to ask for extra plum sauce. It was not that tasty after the delicious shrimp was eaten.
We had Phở soup and seafood soup, avocado smoothie and mango smoothie. My daughter got a rainbow roll.

Great restaurant.
Be sure to make a reservation, as it is a very popular spot to dine, and for good reason. It is also an extremely tiny and cramped space inside too.
The service is hit and miss, at least from my handful of experiences. I can overlook it because the food trumps it.
The food is an awesome value overall. Everything I have had there is savory/​flavorful; and they give you quite a bit of it.
The dinners include a very nice salad with a very tasty ginger dressing and some soup in addition to a huge portion of food. I always end up taking the leftovers home, which is fine, as I can enjoy it again. ;o)
The appetizers are top notch like the egg/​spring rolls.
The sushi is as good as it gets. When I took my daughter for her birthday, she ordered a wide variety of sushi. She travels quite a bit with her job, and dines out quite a bit. With that being said, she stated that their sushi is some of the best she has ever had.
I always get vegetarian sushi, and it’s outstanding.
They were also sweet to present a complimentary and beautifully presented slice of chocolate cake as a lovely birthday gesture.
I read some of the other reviews on here that those particular patrons got free wine. I am not sure how that was possible, as this is a BYOB restaurant. And so, however that worked, I guess I somehow missed out on that one!

Best Sushi I’ve ever had! High quality fresh ingredients! My favorites are the Nguyen Roll and the angry shrimp roll. I’ve never had anything that wasn’t delish! The service is good most times and sometimes you can get the always cranky waiter Justin. It is pricey but so are all hibachi restaurants.
Tip: On a budget? Order the Chicken Fried Rice from the A’la carte section. Its a huge serving for $ 7.95. We usually order 3 or 4 rolls and the chicken fried rice and its more than enough for 4 people to share it all.
And its BYOB!

This is my choice when asked where I want to have dinner! Beautiful surroundings. Great food! Large selection!

This is the best place for sushi in town! I always get the Nguyen roll, but I’m sure the other rolls are great as well. I have also tried their steak and did enjoy that too.
The service here is also wonderful. The owner, Kevin, always remembers my name and comes over to ask how our meal is going.
My friend and I used to go every Sunday for sushi, but they are now closed on Sundays. Bummer.

If I could, I would give it 3.5 Stars but you can’t so ~
This is not your typical Vietnamese restaurant but more of an upscale one with associated higher prices. There are some «typical» dishes but they seem to have more steak and seafood entrees here than usual. They also offer Sushi.
I say higher prices but if you get a dinner selection, it comes with both a delicious fried onion soup as well as a salad with a very good ginger dressing — so I guess it really isn’t a higher price!
The Red Curry Shrimp in a Coconut Cream sauce was very good, with an almost amazing amount of shrimp in the dish.
The Pistachio Crusted Halibut with a Lobster Cream Sauce was also very good, although, for my taste, it could have been taken off the grill just a little sooner. Again, the portion size was large.
So along with some Chicken Fried Rice, there was no room for dessert.
Before tax & tip, the bill came to around $ 55.00 (Nguyen is a BYO)
Well worth a visit!

Best restaurant in Uniontown! The place is nice and clean. Friendly staff and delicious food!

This is a great find. Wonderfully savory food. Fantastic soup. The grilled king salmon was perfect. And the sushi was fresh and tasty.
It turns out the owner is the guy making sushi. He is obviously a master chef and expert sushi artist. He is charming and welcoming without being overbearing.
Who writes about the waiter? Our waiter worked like he was an owner and we were his only customers. His food descriptions and recommendations were spot on.
This is reasonably priced great food in a very lovely restaurant in a culinary desert. I couldn’t believe I was in a nondescript strip shopping center when I came outside.

Great discovery! The BEST sushi. Fresh and flavorful. Pistachio crusted sea bass and king salmon were perfect. Beautiful décor and subtle music. Top of the line waiter. Owner competent and gracious. Spread the word — worth the drive.

Stopped by this place on the way through PA and was glad we did. Service started a little slow but I’m assuming that they were having an unusually busy night. Once we were seated, we had plenty of time to look through the menu and at first glance, it looks expensive. I had the steamed Chilean sea bass over spinach and although it took a while to come out he portion was surprisingly large and the plate was decorated beautifully (the picture does it no justice.) The sea bass also came with a salad and a soup and they were both well made. The soup was a little too salty but worked well coming after the salad. As the night wore on, the service picked up and the server was very attentive. The place looks a little sketchy on the outside (in the middle of a small plaza in a small town) but very well decorated on the inside.

This is a great find! I am originally from California where good food can be found at the blink of an eye. As I was traveling for my job I found this place on Unilocal and was happy I stopped in. This place is awesome. Definitely loved all of the fresh sushi and the Vietnamese flavors. Great atmosphere, Great Service, Generous portions!
5 of 5 — definitely!
