Called in and ordered their wing and rice combo. It was ready very quickly. Picked it up and their servers are always very kind. The ambiance this location is located inside ranch market but still a pleasant ambiance and plenty seating. I ordered the sweet and spicy wings and they were very good! The rice is amazing some of the best I've had in Houston

I stopped by LA Crawfish inside the 99 Ranch Market and overall had a good experience. It's counter service, so you order at the register and grab a seat, which makes it easy and casual. The ambience is laid-back and lively overall definitely a solid spot to hang out with friends, especially if you're already shopping at the market. Customer service was friendly and efficient, and the line moved pretty quickly. The food itself is pretty good it's flavorful, well-seasoned, and served hot. You get that classic LA Crawfish taste that hits the spot when you're craving seafood. I will say it's a bit pricey for what you get, but honestly, the convenience makes up for it. Being able to grab a decent crawfish boil without making a separate trip is a big plus. Overall, a good, casual spot for a relaxed meal with friends.

Shrimp Po boy
Kim N.

I have not been here in about 10 years and now I remember why.. The garlic butter flavor was good however, The crawfish were 98% mushy texture.. I had maybe 3 single crawfish out of 3 lbs that were ok texture..This means they were dead before they were cooked. The shrimps inside the Po boy were good and the toast on the garlic bread was good as well but the sauce they put in the sandwich was in my opinion NOT tasty.. The Po boy did NOT have lettuce in it. The seasoned waffle fries were decent.. Overall the food was nothing special today..

2lbs for $10.99 in Feb
Alexis O.

So disappointed, I'm so surprised! The flavor was the only thing that was good, but the crawfish were extremely small and they were $10.99/lb. They weren't that friendly, but I guess because it's byob...they don't have to be! It's been a while since I've been here and it did not meet my expectations.

$30 a pound for snow crab and this is what they give me. Inedible moldy crab legs, disgusting! Never again!

Magic Cajun rice
Simone P.

I took the magic Cajun rice with chicken and shrimp to go and despite it being ready quick it was a little flavorless and the chicken was very dry. Lots of space on the inside of the restaurant with many customers but from this dish alone I wouldn't come back.

Thai Tamarind Wings: Slightly sweet, very flavorful and delicious!
Kelly N.

I only had the wings here, but after my experience, I feel that they should rebrand as LA Wings, Wings, and Wings! For as long as I've known my bf, he's raved about their wings, and now I finally see the light. All of the wings are HUGE and MOIST!! You can tell they're really good quality wings and they're perfectly cooked! They come in 6 or 12 counts, and as someone who usually eats around 10-12 at other establishments (with smaller wings), 6 wings here filled me up! I got 12 wings, and I had to refrigerate half because I was stuffed!! TAIWAN FIVE-SPICE BASIL: This is my bf's favorite wing flavor! If it was the only wing flavor he could eat for the rest of his life, he'd be ecstatic. He finally converted me. Out of the four flavors we got on this trip, this was my favorite! It was perfectly seasoned and left you wanting more of its complex flavor. JALAPEÑO ONION: I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. I would normally *never* order this in a million years because I really do not like jalapeño flavor and am pretty sensitive to it. I tried this out though because my bf got it and it was actually really tasty! The jalapeño flavor was very mild, in a way I've never experienced before, but still very tasty. I actually wouldn't mind eating these again, which is a huge compliment lol THAI TAMARIND: My bf and I agreed this was our second favorite flavor of the four. I have no idea what tamarind is supposed to taste like, and a quick Google search didn't help much, but this was definitely delicious! It was very flavorful, kinda sweet, came sauced instead of dry, and is definitely worth trying! SPICY GARLIC: I enjoyed this one, but it didn't taste spicy or like garlic. It tasted ambiguously seasoned. I considered the possibility that the garlic flavoring or the spice was accidentally left out, but it was still good so I didn't stress too much, just a tiny bit disappointed because I love and was expecting garlic.

Stopped by just for a quick dinner because this was in the closest Asian grocery store near us. Service was great, very helpful. The food was just okay. I like that they have a food challenge you can see the winners of on their wall. I had the shrimp poboy which was disappointing. I thought it came with a side of fries but the fries were in the sandwich and ended up soggy. The shrimp tasted vaguely sweet. There was no cabbage/slaw that I typically associate with poboys. The pho was good. I'd recommend that. The cajun fried rice was salty and really oily. It was hard to stomach because of the oil and salt. We took it home and tried to leave the oil out, which left a noticeable puddle in the bowl.

Creawfish empanadas
Jan M.

Awesome empanadas. They are delicious. And the sauce is so flavorful. This location is usually very busy and popular. Glad I came during off-peak hours

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!

Typically, when an Asian business has a cheeky name like Xeo Yum, it's widely assumed that it's…read moreheavily Americanized and therefore shouldn't be taken seriously. 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.

This spot is low key with a nice, clean interior and friendly service. I visited here to check out…read moresome noodles and crawfish. 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!

I don't think I've ever consumed so much shrimp paste in my life, so if you don't like that flavor you probably wanna go elsewhere, but other than that everything was just really comforting and nice to eat. 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. It was just an incredible experience that I 100% recommend to anyone wanting authentic Vietnamese food.

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.

I didn't know there were vietnamese dishes that utilized mochi flour and now I can never go back. Every single item was so good. 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. The vermicelli plate was awesome too as you can make a wrap with the lettuce and veggies and rice noodles and they all come together to mouthwatering perfection.
