    Pepper steak
    Taylor P.

    The owner is so sweet here and after trying her food I was blown away! I've tried a few items off of the menu and the food is a must try if you're around here! I love the owner and the food and I would highly recommend it to anyone

    If you work in Galleria/Uptown Area a decent place for viet food in a mom & pops deli joint inside the building.. You can park in the back and enter the back entrance (closer to the caferteria) My lunch was $10 and some change. Quite pricey for a ok viet food. I order the Buon Bo Nuong (charboiled beef vermicilli) and two pieces of Egg rolls. Probably the worst egg rolls I ever ate. I will not recommend the egg rolls. I don't know what herb or seasoning they used. I coudn't even tell what filling it was because there was so much egg roll dough. My Buon Bo Nuong was a good portion. The noodles were a little over cooked and no onions in my beef! Onions are like the main part of that dish! However, tons of Peanuts on it. Beef is well sesaoned. I'll check it out another time and try the other specialites they have.

    Fried fish (2)

    Do note, they only open on weekdays and the close at 4pm. I've been wanting to try this place for the longest time, but I could never make it for their hours, which is understandable since its inside a building. I wish my work building had this restaurant. I would honestly go every week! The owner even gives you a bag with your sauces (if your order contains a sauce) and utensils. We all loved this touch. It saves us the trouble of having to get it ourselves. My friend ordered the bun thit nuong (vermicelli pork) and I took a bite to try it. It was delicious. Large portion with great flavors. They even pickled the carrots just right. My friend and I also shared an order of the crispy wings. I believe there is a splash of fish sauce on the batter, but it was so tasty. I ordered the fried fish platter. It was so good. I wish it came with fried rice instead of fries, but that just makes me want to come back and order a dish with fried rice. haha

    Pho with meat balls and crispy chicken wings
    Gerard Y.

    This cafeteria is located inside the Spirit of Texas Bank building on the 1st floor and there's a general cafeteria style seating within. I ordered pho with meat balls and crispy chicken wings. The pho broth was just right with the flavoring and not salty at all. Plenty of noodles, veggies, and meat balls in the soup. The crispy chicken wings were great with my pho.

    Fall off the bone BBQ Ribs! (Thurs only Lunch  Special)
    Tim B.

    Good prices, fast, friendly service, and their daily specials are perfect if you are in a hurry to grab a wholesome meal around the N. Post Oak area. This is a great alternative to fast food and especially if you don't like fighting lunch our traffic. The portions are good especially on a select few of their daily specials- BBQ Chicken (Wed.), Fried Fish (Fri.), BBQ ribs (Thurs.). I know this because I happen to work in a building within walking distance from here and frequent there on a weekly basis. Now, I have to tell you my favorite daily special is their BBQ ribs special which is only served on Thursdays. 9 times out of 10 the meat falls off the bone and they include a generous helping of potato salad and green beans. It's for this reason that I look forward to going to work on Thursdays, just so I can order this meal from next door. :-) if I'm really hungry, their 1/2 BBQ rotisserie chicken is tender, moist, and very filling, but this is only available on Wednesdays. Tip: You can call in your order for pickup if you are in a hurry. They usually have my order ready in about 5 minutes. Types of food: American, Asian, Healthy salads. That's all I have to say about that -- Is it Thursday yet?

    Bun cha gio (vermicelli w/eggrolls)
    Cindy N.

    My favorite things to get: Vietnamese pork sandwich Vietnamese chicken with vermicelli Crispy wings Pepper steak Beef Lo mein Chicken pho Cheeseburgers Love all the great varieties in one spot. Especially for us tenants. Accessible, affordable, amazingly delicious! Food comes out fast too!

    Hidden gem for sure! If you work (or live) close by you should check out this cafeteria. Their Vietnamese menu is great. Highly recommend this place.

    Food catered behind you Choice for our law firm lunch.
    Armanius M.

    I catered lunch from Choice this past week, and it was a hit with the firm. We had egg rolls, jalapeño chicken wings, combination fried rice, combination lo mein, sweet and sour chicken and beef broccoli. Food tasted great and portions were even better. We had about 25+ people eating, and there were plenty of leftovers for the following day. Pricing was very reasonable. Ms. Hua had the food ready to go at the promised time. Highly recommended!!!

    The food is okay but not worth the pricing. 6.27 for a canned soda and some grapes. It's a hard pass for me.

A 2-year Michellin star BBQ joint was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. My friends and I got there around 10am and were lucky enough to grab a number. The number secures your spot in line but don't worry if you show up and they run out, there's a spot on the porch where the non-number line starts. We ordered moist brisket, garlic sausage, and the beef rib. For sides, we went with mac and cheese and beans. Everything was superb! The brisket melted in your mouth, no knife needed. The sausage had a nice snap to it and get great flavor. The bark on the beef rib was *chef's kiss*. The mac and cheese was creamy while the beans had a nice sweet and tangy flavor. The service is also great! While we were eating, staff would regularly check all of the tables to check if anyone needed anything. The staff taking our order also chatted with us about other BBQ spots we've been to. Everything was such a great experience and the quality of the food is 100/10!

    Killen's never disappoints…read more Their beef ribs were just short of amazing. Juicy, succulent, tender. For a giant piece of meat on the bone, they worked wonders. You can ask to see the piece of rib before they cut it for you and they will happily oblige (patrons behind you might not be so thrilled with that move, but they'll live). Sides were excellent as were the mashed potatoes with white gravy on the side, green beans that were just tender enough, but also a bit crunchy. Perfect. They were seasoned with pork, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. We also ordered their shareable onion rings, easily enough for three people that were huge, hot, and crispy. Let's get this out of the way, some of their prices are a little up there, but if you're anything like me, and don't frequent BBQ places often, it's a rare but enjoyable treat. Sometimes you have to splurge and live a little. Also, they have their regular sauce on tables, but you now have to ask the cashier for their sublime coffee BBQ sauce. Don't be shy, ask. It's worth it. Oh, pro tip: If you want beef ribs, the 'plate' is actually cheaper and a better deal than 'by the pound', so save a little money and get two sides.

    The food was ok, the Brisket Sandwich a bit dry for my taste…read more My Companion had the Pulled Pork Sandwich, she said it was good but didn't care for the Potato Salad. Service was good and quick serviced from steam tables. Employees friendly but quiet. Casual dining but a bit loud. The restaurant was clean. Lots of parking. But 54$ for two Sandwiches, one with 2 sides it a bit much.

    Spacious.. they have a patio room with a huge tv, bar seating, and tables all around. It was like a…read moretourisy bbq spot because they had like a tiny little gift shop like spot where you can buy trinkets or souvenirs. They have sandwiches and tacos. The best thing there is probably the brisket though. It's moist and fatty and easy to eat. The ends weren't hard, charred, or chewy. I don't think there was like seasoning or flavor was heavy but the quality of the meat was delicious. The sides weren't the best or even best selection. Just the basic corn bread, steamed okra, green beans, and a few others. They had like garnishes at the condiment bar. They have sauces like coffee bbq, hot sauce, habernaro, and bbq sauce.. the bbq sauce is the best. The coffee bbq sauce literally taste like espresso and was weird. The habernaro sauce was just straight medium spicy but no extra flavor or sweetness to it. The hot sauce is more like Louisiana or Tabasco type of hot sauces. The service was nice at the bar and counter.

    5 star for brisket egg roll. I would come back only for that because it was so good I would…read moredisregard the rest of the meal. The rest I give 3/5 stars. I love Texas BBQ so I've been to all the Austin, Dallas, and Houston spots especially on Texas Monthly. Brisket was dry, chicken was brined for a little too long and gave a tire texture. Potato salad was too wet, too fatty, and didn't provide the acidity to contrast the fat. The sausage was decent, I give 4/5 stars. It was thick, juicy, and was similar to other places such as Truth, Corkscrew, Terry Black's, etc. The elotes was also too acidic for my liking and the cheese on top didn't mix well with the dish. Finally, the brisket was just ok. I must've gotten a lean piece because it had the texture of chicken thighs. The bark wasn't flavorful or smoky. Barbecue sauce was what I expected. Worchestchire, ketchup, and brown sugar elements make up for an average BBQ spot. Overall, I would come back and order 10 of the brisket egg rolls and call it a meal.
