After fasting for 36 hours, Yummy Quan was our first stop -- and at that point, we would've eaten…read morealmost anything... but luckily, we didn't have to settle. This place delivered where it mattered most, especially with the highly reviewed appetizers. Probably one of my favorite drinks here was the Thai Green Tea. It has a really interesting flavor that stands out from regular Thai Tea -- more earthy, but not quite like matcha (we guessed there might be pandan in it). Just a heads up: it's definitely on the sweeter side. My partner and I actually let the ice melt a bit before continuing to drink it, which helped balance things out. I came back a second time and still loved it just as much. The dipping sauce felt like a truly authentic representation of Vietnamese cuisine. It was a lightly diluted fish sauce with spicy red pepper and plenty of garlic -- simple but really flavorful. I also appreciated that the table setup let you customize it to your taste. In my first experience here, we ordered the Bánh Xèo, Bánh Khọt, and Bánh Bột Chiên. I was hands down a huge fan of the ginormous Bánh Xèo -- crispy, flavorful, and just overall my favorite (though I'll admit I'm a little biased toward it already). Meanwhile, my boyfriend completely fell in love with the crunchy Bánh Khọt. That said, I did notice a slight graininess in the Bánh Khọt, which took away a few points for me. The Bánh Bột Chiên was solid and got a pass from us, but it wasn't our top pick -- mostly because we've had better versions elsewhere. Other worthy notes: the herbs were fresh and crisp, and the pickled vegetables were refreshing as well (though my boyfriend thought they could've been a bit more strongly pickled). Eating everything the traditional way -- wrapping it in lettuce with herbs -- made the whole experience even better. Honestly, I would come back just to order two Bánh Xèo. I actually came back a second time before posting this review, this time with my family. We ordered the Bắp Xào, Cơm Chiên Bò Lúc Lắc, and a simple rice dish. This visit was a bit different -- across the board, we all agreed the dishes leaned too salty this time around. I could also tell the staff was overwhelmed, with only two people handling both the front and the kitchen, so it was tough to get their attention at times. That said, the Bánh Xèo still held its ground. My parents were genuinely impressed by the size, and for me, it's still an absolute banger -- something I'd come back for again and again purely for flavor and value. The Bắp Xào really stood out to me in a nostalgic way. I loved the use of traditional Vietnamese corn, and the sautéed dried shrimp brought back memories of flavors from dishes I grew up eating, even if I couldn't quite pinpoint which one. While my mom thought it was too salty, I actually felt like it would pair perfectly with a bowl of plain white rice. I also tried some of my brother's Cơm Chiên Bò Lúc Lắc and found the beef to be tender and flavorful, though not particularly standout compared to other places. I've had very similar versions nearby, but it's still my brother's go-to -- though I suspect that might also be his way of loading up on protein. Overall, even with the inconsistency during the second visit, I still really enjoy Yummy Quan -- especially for the appetizers. It's a place I'd bring family and friends to try, and I'm still curious about more of the menu... but realistically, I could live life on Bánh Xèo alone. At the end, you also get to grab some guava candy, and for anyone who's never had these, don't forget to pick some up -- they're simply delectable!

I did not like the bun rieu, was too sweet... probably because different region so rieu balls were different than I was used too also.

The cashier is consistently rude, not just to me, but to everyone in line. There's no friendliness, no patience, and it honestly feels like you're inconveniencing her just by being there. It makes what should be an enjoyable meal end on a sour note. As much as I enjoy their food, the service just isn't worth it. Especially when Pho Dien just opened right down the street and does everything better. Their meat is incredibly tender, the noodles taste freshly made, and the broth is rich and full of flavor. On top of that, the owner is genuinely kind and welcoming, and they have some of the best drinks around. Good food can only carry a restaurant so far. Great service and hospitality matter just as much. Unfortunately, that's where Pho Saigon really falls short.

I had time to squeeze in one last meal before leaving Houston, and after seeing Pho Dien…read morerecommended all over TikTok and by so many friends, I knew I had to give it a try! I'll admit I was a little skeptical going in because I genuinely think my favorite pho spot in Texas is still in Austin where I live. That being said, Houston has such an incredible Vietnamese food scene that I've been making it my mission to try as many of the highly recommended spots as I can! When my pho first came out, I thought the broth was rich and flavorful, but it didn't immediately blow me away. Then the manager came over and started chatting with me, asking where I was visiting from and what some of my favorite pho spots were. He even asked what style of broth I usually like, and after I told him I tend to prefer a richer broth, he brought me a side of their fatty broth to add in. It made SUCH a difference!! It added so much depth and flavor, and I appreciated that he took the time to personalize my meal instead of just serving the food and walking away. What impressed me even more was how attentive everyone was. The manager noticed I'd asked for to-go containers even though I'd barely touched my food and came over to make sure everything was okay. I had to explain that I just wasn't as hungry as I thought I'd be haha. He was SO kind and even packed me an extra container of the fatty broth to take home, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We also ordered the grilled pork vermicelli, and WOW...it was honestly one of the best versions I've ever had! The pork was incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked. Between the delicious food and the genuinely amazing hospitality, I can definitely see why Pho Dien is so well-loved. Next time I definitely want to come back and try their bone marrow pho!!

Lots of meat. If you want the beans sprouts to be warmed up , they will do it for you on request. When you take home, your soup make sure you separate the solids from the broth. Otherwise, your noodles will get super soggy. So make sure to ask for two cups if you can't finish your soup. We also have fried eggrolls, not pictured. They were as expected, along with fish sauce and lettuce to wrap the eggroll in. The tables are set where if you have a different number of parties you'll be sitting on the same role. Our utensils on the table weren't restocked so we had to ask for spoons. Otherwise to staff, friendly and quick. Food was also made very quickly so I think this is great for lunch on a workday.

For starters, being a Halal option is an incredibly rare. There are only a handful of Vietnamese places that have some Halal dishes, but POY is certified as a Halal based establishment. The have a dedicated section of the menu and the certification proudly displayed as one enters the restaurant. The interior is bright, festive, clean and well maintained. They have the classic marble top tables, one of the most prominent furniture pieces in any Viet spot. There is no shortage of space for groups and parking is definitely abundant. Speaking of abundant, the menu reflects some of the most intense variety I've seen at a Viet spot. The pho variety alone has more than 20 choices, ranging from a kid's size to a $40 1 pounder of beef tenderloin (#2). Sirloin pincanha is also featured on numerous things from pho to banh mi to bun dishes, along with short rib and the usual meaty suspects (#3). Their pho gets a thumbs up for broth and portion, and the fresh herb condiments are appreciated. Goi cuon and nem cuon were also a thumbs up and were nicely packed with proteins and veggies. While the bun bo hue wasn't as spicy as my group would have enjoyed, it still was nicely portioned and was fulfilling in other ways. Topping it off with a nice Vietnamese coffee (in a branded to-go cup no less) is always a recommendation. The owner is one of the most eclectic personalities I've seen at a restaurant. He's personable, amusing, and always makes everyone in my party feel like they're right at home. The staff is attentive and while the prices are higher than the average Viet spot, the customer service makes it all worth returning. __________ (#1) OH YEAH (#2) Affectionately called "Pho Oh yeah Filet Mignon" (#3) Tendon, round, brisket, meatball, seafood, chicken, etc.

When my parents paid, they didn't say it, but my mom mentioned she tipped less because they weren't ethical. So my medium bowl with one noodle type and the one I wanted to switch to had two noodle types only came in a large. The price difference? $1. Her suggested extra side of egg noodles? $5.

The food didn't impress either, particularly the Cá Viên Chiên Lắc Mắm Tỏi and Bánh Tráng Trộn Sốt Bò Đặc Biệt. The actual food presentation and portion size didn't come close to what was shown in their picture menu. They were also out of a few items like the Bánh Tráng Cuộn Bơ Sốt Tắc, Bánh Tráng Cuộn Bơ Sốt Me, and Soup Cua Đặc Biệt during my visit. Hopefully, this is just a soft opening, and things get sorted by the grand opening, or I don't see them lasting long in this area. Ways to improve: 1. Bánh Tráng Trộn Sốt Bò Đặc Biệt is kinda sweet from the sauce and Bò, so add a little more acidity to dish with lime or sour citrus. 2. List the ingredients on to the picture menu, to help people who might have some sort or allergy decide. 3. Try to resemble the images in menu as much as possible. I ordered a Bánh Tráng Trộn Sốt Bò Đặc Biệt and it came out first in a to-go box when I planned to dine in and that hella confused me. The portions for the Cá Viên was really disappointing for the price and different to the pictures.
