    Crawfish pho
    Jennifer D.

    This is my second time visiting this spot , the first time the food was amazing , but very small portions , and very pricey . It was over a year and half we went there and I don't remember what exactly we got but i remember it was very pricey at that time . I've been sick so i noticed they have a crawfish pho , so i decided to give it a try since pho literally cures me . It was so bad ... but i kinda understand their point of making it a little Cajun but the broth was literally butter ... I had maybe 4 tails of crawfish , the broth wasn't hot (most places give it to me still very hot) noodles were cold , and it had sausage ? . I wanted to like it but it made feel more sick ... I wanna give the other pho a try maybe it will be better.

    Fried rice with shrimp
    Kiana D.

    This restaurant is my go-to for fried rice with shrimp. They never skimp on the protein and the food is always ready super fast and fresh. I also like their combination fried rice, fried shrimp platter, and chicken wings. I've been a faithful customer since they came to the Summerwood/West Lake Houston area and will continue to patronize.

    Lemon pepper half Buffalo

    Me and my husband love this place. It's always dead inside, but a lot of people order takeout. I've tried agonist anything on the menu lol. The potato balls are my favorite appetizer. The combination fried rice has so much flavor and that's my husband's favorite. Try the pho can't go wrong with that either.

    Spicy edamame
    Mikka H.

    I wanted to love this place. Being fairly close to my bfs I was excited. I don't know if it's the pregnancy throwing my taste buds off.. I had edamame spicy this was literally too spicy to consume. And I'm normally a chili head. I also had #2 combo which came with 1 lbs crab legs and shrimp. Don't remember the exact order but it comes with 1 corn, 1 potato, and 1 sausage in Kaboom extra spicy. The flavor was kinda disappointing garlic butter with a mix of there twist of Cajun. Not the typical mix and maybe that's why it didn't seem to be a hit. Plus the snow crab was over cooked. Great cook on snow crab is easy pull on the meat from the shell and it to come out in one whole piece. This did not happen. Also order 50 wings to go and pho. The wings are pretty huge and if I came back it would be for those. And the sick bf enjoyed the pho.

    Undercooked chicken wings
    Pamela L.

    I placed my order of 6 lemon pepper wings and shrimp fried rice via DoorDash. My initial thought was how appetizing everything looked along with the large portion of food. The shrimp in the rice were large and plentiful (roughly 12-15 count). The food didn't come with plasticware, napkins, salt and pepper nor soy sauce which was all needed. It was all extremely bland. The lemon pepper wings were not seasoned and they were undercooked to the point of showing the pink meat at the bone. I would like to give them another try but from this experience, I deem it necessary to order in person so that I'm guaranteed to receive what I'm paying for.

    Boiled seafood

    Bathroom 5/5: Average; clean Dining Area 3/5: Plenty of seating areas but not much to it. The tablecloth kept moving and appeared worn out. Customer Service 1/5: To sum up the service I experienced, I was basically figuring everything out as I went along. There was no one at the door despite it being an entire bar area as soon as you walk in. I went straight to the register in the back and they assumed I was ordering to-go until I took a seat. The waiter came by once to drop off the order. I had to return to the register to pay for my food in order to leave. Very awkward experience. Food 1/5: Average boiled seafood. The main concern was it came out warm instead of hot. So either it was sitting there for a while or something worse. I've heard compliments about their fried rice. Price 1/5: $$$ far too expensive for the poor service and food Vibe 1/5: Confusing, tables were wobbly, tablecloths were worn out, the place was empty, the bar area was a ghost town, etc. Overall 12/30: This is my lowest rating yet for a restaurant on this side of Houston.

    3lbs of crawfish kaboom spicy, potatoes, corn and two eggs.

The filling is placed in a pan and then a thin layer of batter made with tumeric and coconut milk yellow batter is poured on top. You wrap the lettuce around the bánh xèo/bánh khọt and dip it in the fish sauce. I got the bánh khọt and the bò né. Bánh khọt is like a mini, thicker version of bánh xèo and came with nine pieces. Their bánh khọt was crispy, sweet and savory, and went well with the fish sauce. Although the portions initally look small, they are very filling. The bò né was filling and sizzling when it came out. It also came with a side of salad. The meat was tender. I really liked the bánh khọt and would definitely come back for them. It's nice having an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in our area, close to us, so we don't have to make the trek to Bellaire every time we crave some Viet food!

I couldn't have been more wrong. Xeo Yum (#1) as it turns out is one of the most legit Vietnamese places in Midtown serving up some of the city's best banh xeo and banh khot. Located inside of a Food Hall (#2) in the back corner, they have low-key become a destination and without question, the most popular stall in the entire place. The fan base didn't happen overnight but is a direct result of Chef Cuong Nguyen's commitment to quality Vietnamese fare. Banh Xeo is their signature item, which is also known as a sizzling crepe or pancake made of rice flour, tumeric, and coconut milk. The banh xeo holds well, is perfectly crispy, and is nicely stuffed with an assortment of beans sprouts, shrimp, and some of the best grilled pork belly I've had. Another specialty item that doesn't get enough mention is their banh khot, which is similar but has a mini muffin / cupcake like appearance made in a specialty cast iron mold. This version is wonderfully crispy and pairs perfectly with fresh greens and fish sauce with some funk. It is my favorite item here. Some have argued they also serve one of the best bo ne (#3), the Vietnamese version of steak and eggs served in a skillet. The chunks of beef are nice and tender with just a tad of char, served with two fried eggs, and a banh mi baguette with a mix of butter and spare. Normally I think of spam or sausage included with the meats, but Chef Cuong's spin is with cherry tomatoes. It's a different approach and I'm not mad at it. Folks not looking for this can shoot for bo luc lac, aka shaking beef, which is also recommended. The staff here is sweet, hard-working, and very friendly. They also make a mean Vietnamese coffee and offer free iced self-serve water. The prices are what I would expect in a Midtown food hall, and there's plenty of seating. Anyone checking out the food hall need to make Xeo Yum as part of their eating itinerary. __________ (#1) A play on the Vietnamese sizzling crepe, Banh "xeo" and yum" (#2) Previously the Conservatory and now Stestí Food Hall. (#3) Boh-Neh. Not bone.

When I arrived there was nobody dining in the restaurant, that was a bit worrying, but I figured it was a bit early for the dinner crowd and late for the lunch crowd. Food & Drink - 4.5* First up was the noodles, I enjoyed them, but I wouldn't say the hype I'd heard about from some others was there. They had nice flavor, but there just wasn't anything "special." 3.5* Then it was on to the crawfish, and my oh my. Superb, the flavor is delicious and unique. This more than made up for the noodles dish. The potato and corn was good too. Service - 5* Solid. When I first arrived the owner was quietly reading a newspaper and eating his own lunch. He paused to greet me and advised that I could sit anywhere. He provided water and adequate time to determine what I wanted to order. The food came out quickly and he checked in a few times to make sure everything was ok. As time went by, the crowd of folks showing up increased quite a bit and he still managed to check in on tables consistently. Pricing - 4* This is where it was odd. Always subjective but I found the noodles to be overpriced for not only the size but what I felt was a pretty simple dish. The crawfish on the other hand was priced very competitively and made up for the overpriced noodles. I provided pics of the menu for someone to make their own assessment but in general I thought many of the dishes were pricier than they probably should be. I know inflation is certainly killing many businesses and consumers but even these felt a bit off. Overall - 4.5* This is definitely going to be one of my go tos for crawfish when in the area. The flavor is fantastic, the pricing is good, the size of them were solid. There are a couple of other dishes I may try on the next visit. The restaurant is clean, the owner is very nice, and it's a nice low key space to just enjoy a good meal with friends or family.

I believe the crawfish is seasonal, so go during crawfish season because this pho was delicious. The crawfish were so tender and the pho was so flavorful. The beef dish was also so good to eat and balanced. The fried beef balanced so well with the fresh salad and rice. I will say that when we went the parking lot was a little deserted at night. I would definitely lock your doors and take all your valuables. But that's all or Houston, so just stay safe!

My least favorite of what we got was the Banh Bot Chien, and even that was still really good and had a nice crunch. Everything else we ordered was all really authentic and very forward with flavor. The restaurant was incredibly busy on the Saturday we went, with the bustling lunch crowd of both large families and old couples filling up the entire restaurant, so try to go at an off-hour where most people aren't eating.

I've been going here for several years, both in person and for take-outs, and they have never failed to impress me. I like to go here for late lunch or early dinner when the restaurant isn't as busy. The restaurant is in the same shopping center as the Chase Bank and Thanh Da Quan. Even though it's located on the far side of Chinatown near My Hoa Market, the drive is definitely worth it. The restaurant is small and well decorated, and the workers are nice. The dishes are a bit pricey compared to other Vietnamese restaurants for the portion size, but the taste and quality definitely make it worth it. Even my parents, who are super picky when it comes to Vietnamese restaurants, love the food at Com Nieu Houston. Like the name, most of the dishes here are in clay pots. Everything is always super flavorful and perfectly cooked. My absolute favorites are the Thit Ba Chi Kho To (caramelized pork belly), the Suon Non Rim To (braised spare ribs) and the Canh Chua Tom (Vietnamese sweet and sour soup with shrimps). I also really love their Com Chien Ca Man (salted fish & chicken fried rice), which I think is one of the best in town, as well as their Ga Kho Xa Ot (braised lemongrass chicken). The Ca Bong Lau Kho To (caramelized catfish) is my parents' favorite. Photos are from my most recent visit.

The mochi was cooked so perfectly as every bite was so chewy and soft with no hard clumps at all. The meat that came with them as well were so sweet and tender.
