    Imperial Pho is the best Halal Vietnamese restaurant in the city in my opinion! Offers tasty delicious food with a huge variety of options on the menu. The interior is huge with a lot of dining space with good bright lights ambiance to see the details of the dishes and music in the background to provide a friendly experience. The service was nice, organize, and very helpful with any questions or service request needed in which will be fulfilled in a timely mannered! Will definitely coming back here again.

    I came as soon as they opened and walking in you can smell Fabuloso. It is a nice nice place that gives a vibe I'm not sure how to explain. They have music playing and a small strobe light. I got the food home and everything was still hot. The pho was good but nothing to scream about. I really enjoyed the egg rolls but not sure what the dipping sauce was as it looked like a mayo with Sriracha or something like that. I would have preferred the regular dipping sauce I get at other places. Yes I would go back, but I would order online or call ahead.

    The workers were extremely well mannered, overall super polite and friendly. The displacement of the bowls and what sizes were available made it easy to figure out what selection would be best. I ordered a large Chicken Pho and a small Beef Pho. The only misfortune upon the visit was that I received a large beef pho instead of chicken however, the beef was extremely delicious regardless so not much to complain. The atmosphere itself was very calming and just had an overall very relaxing ambiance. Pricing was about standard for any pho restaurant as well. Would dine here again.

    Who doesn't love a good pho? On Google, it said the place opened at 11. Should've checked the hours on Yelp, but we got here a little before noon as it was opening. Pretty quiet place and nice music selection. Got the Ly's Pho with all the good meats.. Broth was excellent. Add some spiciness to it, and it was hit along with the Sweet tea. Ended up taking the broth home to use for later in the week. A good broth never goes to waste!

    Ly Pho (halal)

    Ordered the Ly 's Halal Pho and was a solid pho option. Your average pho which is nice to have as an option with halal meat. Also ordered the spicy beef vermicelli noodles. The dish had a strong beef aroma that wasn't too appetizing. Also ordered the 8oz steak with mashed potatoes and was a good dish. Ordered drinks as well. Brown sugar boba milk tea was creamy and yummy. Thai milk tea was a bit too strong and not my favorite. Also ordered the mango lychee tea and was a good sweet fruity option.

    Wanted to try a new place to try a new Banh mi. Googled this spot and wanted to give it a try. It's right next to Kroger directly off of fry rd. This establishment is huge. Several areas of seating. Could absolutely have a party here if you were looking for somewhere different to do family pho. Anyways, I got the crawfish Banh mi. Won't lie, not the best I ever had. They did some kind of tartar sauce and it didn't sit well with the taste. It was still edible and well made just lacked flavor. The combo came with fries and a drink for all around $13 total. Fries were ok. I like a bit more crispy. The pho I saw others getting looked piping hot and amazing. Will go back to have the pho next time. Clean place. TVs. Good staff. Nothing crazy stand out but solid choice for lunch.

    We usually eat at Pho Saigon or Pho Sapa but since we haven't been on this side of town for almost 10 years we decided to give them a try. Broth had some flavor to it but I just know for a fact that cleanliness is not their top priority. It might've been a bad day/week for them but unfortunately, it's a no for us. I kept smelling a weird stench coming from the food and It was their sauce packets. Y'all them things were stinky! The outer packaging reeked of urine. When my husband said that it could be roaches I immediately started gagging TT__TT That strip center has been there for a min so it's possible. PLEASE Get it together imperial pho. I won't be returning but get it together for the rest of the people.

    Great atmosphere, speedy services and kind workers. I ordered the rib eye cooked Med with garlic mashed potatoes, a salad and a Sweet tea. The salad consisted of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions. As someone that isn't fond of salad, it was prepared wonderfully. The dressing was delicious and had just enough of a kick to keep you wanting more without being overwhelming. The Garlic mashed potatoes were smooth, buttery and perfectly seasoned. You can actually taste the herbs. Ribeye cooked to a perfect medium was juicy, tender and well seasoned. So tender you could use your spoon to cut it. The juices from the steak paired perfectly as a gravy for the mashed potatoes. Definitely will be back to try more of the variety they offer on their menu.

    Let's start off with what I like most about this location compared to their Bellaire location…read more(Ocean Crawfish) - CLEANLINESS!!!!! I always felt like Ocean Crawfish in Bellaire had potential but I could never get myself to get over the sewage smell on the outside of the building and overall stickiness and lack of cleanliness feeling on the inside. This Katy location tho is the exact opposite and they even have booth seating! Second stand out worth mentioning is pricing. They have A LOT of specials here. When we came, they have $12 dozen oysters, $4 margaritas, & $6.99 per lb crawfish. You cannot beat those prices and flavor wise, everything was pretty dang good! Cheese oysters - 4/5- I liked them but I could have done without the fish eggs on top. I usually don't mind fish eggs but don't love the pairing. Grilled scallion oysters - 5/5 - these were my fav and made just right. Add a dash of lemon juice and sriracha - CHEFS KISS!! Lemongrass & Kumquat Crawfish - 3.5/5 - I ordered two pounds just to try and it took awhile for the flavor to grow on me. At first I didn't feel it was spicy enough considering I ordered extra spicy but eventually I did taste a bit of heat. Peel of the crawfish could have been better, some were overcooked and stuck to the shell or mushy. Curly fries - 5/5 - can't really go wrong with fries unless they're just plain old mushy lol Strawberry Margarita - 5/5 - my boyfriend liked it but it was very strong. Considering it was only $4 - not a bad deal at all. All that food and the bill was under $100, that is a win in my book. Service was nice & attentive as well. I'll definitely be back to this location.

    I really enjoyed this place! We had two different types of oysters, we had the cheesy oysters, and…read morethe garlic oysters, curly fries and crawfish. The oysters were great I liked both of them! The fries were super crispy which I loved and came with both a side of ranch and ketchup, I liked having both options. I got the House Sauce flavor for the crawfish and it was perfect in my opinion. There was lots of garlic which I loved, onions, oranges, and maybe some other things but I can't remember exactly what else was in it. The flavor was great, it was kind of sweet. I did also have a strawberry margarita on the rocks which was super good! Be aware it was very strong 2 or 3 would have been my limit for sure! Staff were friendly and checked on us very frequently. I would definitely recommend giving this a try. We will be back for sure!

    I haven't been to this spot in years. I forgot how good this place was!…read more Music is always popping here. I came in on a Friday night, and they had a live DJ playing. The music is a mix of EDM, Hip-hop, Rap, and R&B. They have tables and bar top seating. If you have a bigger group, I'm sure you can find a table depending on the time you arrive. There is a lot of seating. To start off, I ordered the Matcha Martini. It was STRONG omg, definitely a sipper, but it was so good. It was creamy and had a good matcha flavor. I love how they added matcha powder on top. For drinks, I also tried their espresso martini and Bubbly Pineapple. The espressos here are good, no complaints. The Bubbly Pineapple is so cute; it comes out with a bubble of smoke you can pop. The drink is very refreshing; it really tastes like pineapple. FYI, the drink has little black seeds, so if you don't like textures in your drink, maybe this one isn't for you. Also the drink came with a little frozen pineapple you can add to your drink once you pop the bubble As an appetizer, I got a dozen raw oysters and decided to add the $5 tobiko (fish eggs). Let me say, they were not stingy with the Tobiko, there was so much on my Oysters, I mean a lot! The oysters were good, and so was the tobiko, but I feel that with so much tobiko, it kind of took away from the oysters. Still good though, especially for $21 for the dozen with the tobiko! It was very filling I'm not gonna lie, I got pretty full with the oysters, but I still had to eat my entree As an entree, I ordered the Short Ribs, which came with rice and a side salad. I didn't think I was going to eat much of my entree since the oysters had filled me up, but I ate the short ribs down to the bone! Every single one of those ribs I devoured, no meat was left on my plate. I didn't have space to eat, but my stomach made space for this. 10/10 would recommend the short ribs, especially with the delicious sauce it came with. I think it's like a fish sauce 10/10 for food and drinks. Bonus: the staff here is really friendly. I really enjoyed my time here. I need to come more often for sure, this is definitely a Katy gem

Had no reservations anywhere on a Friday night but called GiAu Bar n Bites & they said come on in, we don't get our crowd till late night. It was fairly empty at 7:30p but by the time we left at 9:45p there were a few more ppl. Funny thing is, the age of most customers was 40-60s. The music is pumping loudly with no DJ but at 9p the DJ came in & took the music up another level! I think the older folks come out early & likely the younger people take over after 10 or 11p. ( I won't be able to confirm that theory cause I'll be home by then!) Food & services were good as usual. The bartenders do a great job check them out!
