    Nice clean restaurant, fast service, friendly staff! I will be returning in the future.

    Good deal for the pho and banh mi combo. The pho broth was very light and bland. The pork banh mi was pretty good. The crab puffs were mid. It was kind of hot in there. Would not return.

    Egg rolls , vegetables available to wrap it for the ultimate experience.

    OMG. Talk about comfort food at reasonable prices. I enjoy the appetizer as much as the entrees. If I could eat there everyday, I probably would. My go to are the egg rolls with lettuce wraps, shrimp and pork spring rolls, fried pork potstickers, rice or vermicelli pork ,pork bahn mi, any pho, but don't sleep on the wings. It is family owned and you can sense how caring they are. It can seem understaffed at times because Linh puts on many hats. It is counter service but seeing how I'm physically challenged, she does her best to accommodate me.

    Chicken Pho, Crispy Eggrolls with Fish Sauce & Sprite.

    The food and staff are amazing!!! My daughter and I come here often and have experienced good vibes and a good atmosphere every single time! They have the best eggrolls everrrrrrr and their chicken pho is so satisfying! Love this place.

    Honestly they were very straightforward and service was speedy. Food was delicious!! Utensils, drinks and other items were self serve which was great and environment was clean. Def a must try.

    Came on a cold day in early January to be greeted by a hot bowl of Pho which was excellent. The combo meat ones were satisfying and the seafood one looking and smelled very well as well. You order at the counter and they bring the food out to you

    Dragon Fried Rice

    I frequent this place; the food is good. I'm a little bit upset, though, that the quantity of food given has reduced drastically. I used to be able to share my portion with my daughter and still be full. I don't dare try that now, we will not be satisfied. The service was good, I always get it to go. They always have a tv show or movie playing via projector with no volume so you can chat with your friends and keep your eyes occupied if need be. I will always recommend here, just wish the rice portions did not get reduced but with this economy....

    Shrimp Pho

    Having Nom Nom nearby is comforting on any day but especially when the weather gets cold & rainy! I've only had the following items, but I've ordered each several times. **Shrimp Pho $11.99 Pho served with shrimp. A traditional Vietnamese rice noodle soup topped with red onions green onions and cilantro. Served with a side dish of bean sprouts, basil and lime. Served in beef broth. 4/5 -I really enjoy the Shrimp Pho. The boys also love it here. The love to get the soup spoons to sip the broth and chop sticks to eat Their shrimp! ** Shrimp Fried Rice $10.49 Jasmine stir fried rice with shrimp, egg, bean sprouts and green onions. 4/5 -I really enjoy the rice and so does the boys. The shrimp are a nice size too! The restaurant is never too crowded, and the service is always consistent. I can tell by the owners interactions with customers They have regulars who are appreciated. It's a very welcoming space. There's a television that adds a nice touch of entertainment as well. If You're in the Energy Corridor or not this is definitely a spot to check out for Your Nom Nom needs! Pho nom~enal especially when dining in. I don't know about You, but I don't like eating to-go pho but that's just Me!

    My coworker and I were looking for some really good pho and buy me sandwiches. Stumbled upon this little gym, which had exactly what we were looking for. We ordered the Nom Nom Special, which is half of a banh mi and a small bowl of chicken pho. It was extremely delicious and the owners are extremely nice. They brothis I'm sorry complain flavorful and you can't beat this special for $8.29. The ambience of the place is a real chill spot. That's good for a quick lunch if you're in the briar forest in Eldridge area. I will be coming back to support them because this is one of my favorite Vietnamese spots in Houston!

    House garlic wings, a tad over fried no?
    Eduardo G.

    So excited to try this place, not too happy. I read a review about the Ultimate Pho and like someone else said , "it was not Ultimate whatsoever. I've had this type of pho before and man this one missed the mark. Flavor was there and noodles and bean sprouts but where in the heck was the beef? There was enough beef for my cat! All the little pieces they gave me, fit in a single shallow layer on the inner palm of my hand. I know times are tough but I paid very good money, $28 for soup, wings and a drink. I tried the house garlic wings someone else recommended and they were okay. Lacked flavor and I could taste was the heavy breading and garlic bits, but i did order some Bonsai or bonfire wing sauce on the side and when combined, they tasted so much better. I wanna go back but I don't wanna get ripped off again. I say this bc there was an oriental couple and they both had the ultimate pho and their meat portion was impressive. I got really excited. I guess if you take togo that what happens. Pho Flavor 10/10 hands down Meat in Pho 3/10 Garlic wings solo 5/10 Don't be discouraged to go it's really tasty but just make sure they don't skim on the meat

    Ultimate Pho (Pho Special Served with a combinations of all cuts of beef)
    Jennifer C.

    Quick stop for lunch and craving pho. Nom Nom Noodles hit the spot with fresh soft spring rolls; the peanut sauce was fresh (served warm) and the right balance of peanut and sweetness. I got the Ultimate Pho (Pho Special Served with a combinations of all cuts of beef ) and it was delicious!

    This place is big and spacious. There is no worry for my wife and me on social distance if with other diners. The area looked clean and provided customer with hand sanitizer. I think we are good here on Covid safety. The setup is to order at the counter and the staff would bring the food to you. We ordered an order of Vietnamese egg rolls, Pho Ga (Vietnamese chicken noodle soup) and Pork Chop over rice with a fried egg. The check came out to about $20. My wife liked the Pho Ga especially the broth. My pork chop rice was alright. It could have been more flavorful. Plus if they throw in egg quiche it would be a much better dish. On other occasion, my wife had ordered a half soup and a half sandwich ala half pho and a half banh mi. She felt it was a much better deal. Her colleagues at work seemed to agree. Overall I'd give NomNom a solid 3 star rating. It is a good place to get your fix on Pan Asian food in the area.

    My BF told me this place has incredible food for great value…read more Beef Noodle Soup - This is only $10? The value is as incredible as the flavor. Goodness, can we have one open near me? Very hearty and not too spicy. The broth is rich with a refreshing relish tang. My BF and I shared a bowl because there was no way I would've finished it on my own with everything else we ordered. Chicken Dumplings in Beef Soup - Seems to use the same broth as the Beef Noodle Soup. Not my personal favorite because the dumpling wrapper is a bit too thick, but it's a small miss considering how fond I already am of this place. Pan-Fried Pork Dumplings - How is this place making money? These things are massive and deliciously oily. There's a clean Maillard effect on the bottom that adds so much flavor. They also have an interesting fold--I've never seen dumplings shaped quite like this before. The pork flavor comes through strongly with the classic scallion combo. Steamed Bao Bun - Yaass, reliving my Chinese drama dreams. These weren't as sweet as the commercial ones, which I personally prefer. Still, I reckon this is how they tasted in those shows, so I'm stoked for the experience. Now, will I say this is the absolute best dumpling place in Houston? No--but there is something undeniably attractive about this place, and it is fundamentally delicious. It embodies one of the best versions of a classic mom-and-pop restaurant, serving homemade food that isn't perfect but reflects craftsmanship and care beyond the appeal of modern restaurants. My dumplings weren't wrapped with perfect precision, nor were they the pinnacle of healthy eating. They were just blatantly delicious--like when your mom cooks your favorite meal on a weekend night. That's why I would come back. This place represents the most authentic form of home and freedom in food. The downside of all the carbs I ate is that I had to volunteer at my local theatre afterward, and I was crashing haaaaaard while sending this place so much love.

Generous generous portions, cheap, and overall pretty dang great. Chicken steak rice - soo much food. Very crispy chicken and great! Comes with a boil egg and I believe it was tofu. I ended up making a second meal for later with all the food. Had a option of rice/ noodles. I wish I got the noodles. Tried friend's roasted beef noodle and wow the texture on the noodle is fantastic thick, little chewy, but felt perfect and I don't say that lightly. Pan fried dumplings - 12 of them! Pretty great for sharing. Loved it! Perfect amount of crispyness Shrimp and pork siu mai - I think it was good but to me it didn't taste fresh to me personally. I think its still quite good in taste though Overall I was pretty happy with this place! The owners were so nice, answering all our questions, recommending options on menu. I would come back!

You order at the cash register and the menu has quite a large selection of dumplings and buns. You seat yourself and there is a station with cups, a water dispenser, plates and chopsticks. The liangpi is the reason I come to this restaurant. The noodles have an amazing texture and it pairs perfectly with the bean sprouts, cucumber and cilantro. The sesame sauce brings everything together and it's amazingly refreshing and hearty at the same time. The pork leek dumplings have a delicious filling and the wrapper is very clearly handmade with a delicate chew. The pan fried buns were also quite yummy with a golden crispy bottom and fluffy exterior. My diagnosis: come here for the best liangpi and well made dumplings and buns

The got nice wall art too, depicting the popular dishes from the north so I had my expectation and hopes up. Service is ordinary, she speaks little English but can get by ordering, we order first at the counter the sit anywhere. Braised egg is 2 for $3.50, salty but expected since it's marinated. Came out steaming hot, and yolk was not overly cooked and dry, not bad. Starting with the Chinese hamburger I felt sad and know not to expect too much from the other dishes we ordered. First the meat look different than what others have posted before, and it was kinda dry and too salty to eat. There was no other spice, only the meat juice flavor. The bun they use was stale to eat. Traditional way of making this should be the flaky oily pancake, or at least make the buns softer to eat. The mutton stew was clear and very heartwarming to drink on a cold day. But the portion is super small for the price. The glass noodles were gone in literally two bites. I had none to share with my boyfriend. This dish come with the burger bun too that you can soak them in the soup so I guess this is the extra carb make up for the less noodles. Oil splash noodle is their specialty? It was good but didn't wowed me. Noodles are chewy and well cooked, came with lots of bean sprouts. The sauce is flavorful and actually not too oily which I enjoyed more. You can add the beef for an extra charge, it's the regular braised beef, was just ok. I find it funny that their all food arts on the wall look nothing like the actual way they serve it.

    5 Stars - Authentic Szechuan that absolutely nails the classics…read more During our short trip to Houston, as a custom, we were determined to find real Szechuan food, and luckily we found Hu's Kitchen. The location is a bit unassuming, and parking is definitely tough (the spaces are very shallow), but the second we walked through the doors and smelled the Szechuan peppercorns, I knew we were in exactly the right place. I generally judge a Szechuan restaurant by their 夫妻肺片 (Fuqi Feipian)--which they cleverly name "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" on the menu. They completely nailed it. The beef, tripe, and tendon were incredibly cohesive together, yet you could tell each component was prepared and marinated in a slightly different way to perfectly highlight its specific texture. The chili oil was right on the spot. We went through a massive bowl of rice just eating this dish alone. Honestly, if I weren't feeding a family of four, I could have just ordered that and been perfectly happy. While the Fuqi Feipian proves their skill with dry dishes, the 水煮魚片 (Fish in Szechuan Hot Chili Oil) proves their skill with wet ones. It's another must-order. The execution was flawless--we didn't just finish the tender fish chunks, we ate every last piece of cabbage soaked in that incredible chili broth. For my two daughters who can't handle the heat, we ordered the fried rice, garlic pork ribs with onion, and the 紅燒獅子頭 (Giant Meatball with Cabbage). The giant meatball was spectacular. The kids completely devoured it on their own, but I managed to steal a bite, and it instantly brought back childhood memories of exactly how this dish is supposed to taste. We also had the Dan Dan Noodles, which were great and rounded out the meal perfectly. I loved all of the dishes we tried. Should we ever find ourselves in Houston again, we will absolutely be revisiting this hidden gem.

No complaints here since we were starving from an 8 hour road trip. The Dan Dan Noodles...I had high expectations but sadly this dish fell short. I recommend Hu's Cooking to use a bigger bowl and more sauce because it was difficult to mix the noodles and the sauce wasn't...saucing, unfortunately. I wish there was more flavor in this dish. The Scallion Pancake was super over-fried and oily. See image in my review. The outer parts of the pancake were fried to a crisp and only a small circumference in the center stayed chewy. I know Chinese tends to be oily but this pancake soaked up way too much oil. Half a Peking duck: super great price for so much meat. The difficulty when eating this dish is gnawing the meat off the sharp bones of the duck. Mapo Tofu with white rice: pretty easy staple, no complaints here. Dinner on a Saturday was packed but we got seated quickly and food arrived fast.

The restaurant is located inside Jusgo grocery store. The seating is quite limited so I wouldn't recommend it for large parties. And it's pretty mom and pop, so if that's your jam, go for it. Chairs are mismatched, drinking water is somewhat self-service in small cafeteria-style plastic cups, and tables are small. Like I said - mom and pop, and that's not a bad thing.

Not many restaurants in Houston offer Takowasa, which is marinated raw octopus with wasabi; and when we find one that does, it's our must order for appetizers. We also ordered the chicken karaage and agedashi tofu. The karaage was juicy and slightly larger than the size of popcorn chicken. The tofu was soft and lightly battered, however the downside is that it gets soggy quickly since it's sitting in the sauce rather than on the side. For our entrees, we got the carbonara, curry tonkatsu rice, niku tama ankake, and kakuni udon. The carbonara was nice and creamy. The curry rice tastes exactly like the Japanese box curry. The niku tama is more of a thicker soup base similar to egg drop soup, however has a more slightly sweet umami flavor. The kakuni udon had a lighter broth with braised pork belly. The service was a bit slow here, but we didn't mind it too much. The interior had a cute traditional Japanese style decor. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and we'll be back to try other udons.
