It's k. I would only go back if I'm in the area . It's heights so it's more expensive. And the portion for regular is small amount for pho for like a senior citizen or teen. Parking is limited. Self order and sit. read more

Nice easy lunch at a great price, you get a drink, small app, and main course. One of the better pho broths in the city, and their bone marrow appetizer is delicious. Their service is quick and efficient, and they definitely fill up. P3 is their steak and brisket pho. read more

I stayed in the downtown area and was desperate to find viet food. This one was the closest to us. The parking was tight and hard to get a spot, as everyone mentioned. Food: I got the bun thit nuong, pho, and spicy bone marrow. The meat was good and well flavored. The nuoc mam was a bit bland to me. The pho lack flavor depth, I could taste the sweet and saltiness of the soup but where's the spices? The spicy bone marrow was okay too, nothing special. The bun thit nuong was probably the saving grace. I also noticed that they give me meat than noodles for both pho and bun dishes -- a good ratio would be ideal. Though I'm sure a meat lover wouldn't complain. Final thoughts: If you really, really want vietnamese food, then this place isn't terrible. would I come back? Probably not. It seems to be more Americanized? I say that because it's not a regional flavor difference here (they claim to highlight Bac (northern) flavor pho), but I truly believe it's more americanized than bac. There's nothing wrong with that, but it's not for me. Customer service: they were great! read more

Maybe I ordered the wrong things but the shrimp spring rolls and chicken rice plate are my go to orders at Vietnamese places. I ordered delivery via Uber Eats. The spring rolls were super meh for the price. Just shrimp, noodles, and lettuce inside. For $7!!! The chicken on the chicken rice plate was so bland and dry! It tasted like they didn't season it at all! When I get the dish at other places, usually the chicken is well marinated, salty and a touch sweet. This place just threw the dry chicken on the grill and called it a day. I tried to salvage it with the fish sauce provided but still it was hard to choke down. Will not order again. read more

First time there, day after Christmas. Pretty pretty busy to say the least. The only snap-phoo was other customers blocked me in the parking lot and I could not get out. But then the customers moved their cars. The food was delicious. I ordered the Black Pepper Steak, veggie egg rolls and chicken curry. Service was great. Pricey but delicious. read more

When people see me on the street they wonder, "where's that ho binh?" I sometimes overhear them, and say "wouldn't you like to know binh?" Then I hop online and get to working on this flow binh But if you want some Banh Mi in The Heights then go to Pho Binh What. Where has this Pho Binh all my life? This is the fancy sit-down hipster version of a more authentic place with the same name and the same owners over in Chinatown Houston. And it wasn't bad, but we also weren't thrilled by it. Prices are what you would expect from a sit-down type of place. The Vietnamese iced coffee didn't really do it for me. The Banh Mi sandwich was okay. The fresh rolls were not bad. I'd like to give it a 4, just for authenticity, but it's only just qualifying for a 4 if I'm being honest, and I'm notoriously extraordinarily famous for generous ratings. A couple of girls on the porch were taking pix of Barbie behind her back. Not too appreciated. Service is fairly nice and I didn't hate it but I also didn't love it - kind of late last night with your mother. And keep on hating, haters. I'll occasionally Binh but I won't break. read more

One of the few places I can get pho with a side of bone marrow, coming to any Pho Binh location is always a treat for me! I learned quickly that one cup of bone marrow is a little too rich for one bowl of pho, so I now make a point to share a cup with a friend to create the right ratio of fatty bone marrow to flavorful broth. The broth on its own has a great concentration of flavor, and the bone marrow just bumps it up a couple notches. The meat was generously portioned in my large dac biet pho, and extra credit for nice chunky pieces of soft tendon (swoon)! The crispy egg rolls were tasty and crunchy, but the soda chanh was too sweet for my liking. I was pleased with how quickly the food came out, and everything was really delicious! read more

Such good food and great ambiance. Have and will always go here for their pho and vermicelli bowls!

Service was great, very friendly staff. Menu was clear to read as it's written in large font on the wall. On my first visit I picked the Korean ribs with rice. Ribs were cooked perfect and had just the right amount of seasoning. My only complaint is there should have been one more on the plate lol. Salad and veggies that came with were fresh and were recently cut. Rice was also cooked just right. For being just plain steamed rice, there was a nice flavor to it that I couldn't figure out. I'll have to ask what they use next time I'm there. read more

Came here for lunch on a Saturday, cute outdoor seating area, and inside of the restaurant is chill and peaceful. Ordered at the counter, and they brought us our food almost immediately after we sat down. We both got the Tai Nam (steak and brisket) pho, one large size and one regular size. The broth is light and flavorful, most importantly they give you a very generous amount of meat, definitely more than other pho places we've been, and the meat is tender. Quick and delicious lunch spot. We didn't have room for dessert today, but we definitely want to come back and try their cake, it looks like they have rainbow cake, carrot cake, chocolate cake etc., each slice is big and is already packed in a container. read more

Nice little vietnamese restaurant located in the heart of the heights. Parking can be a hassle but I've always found a parking spot. The restaurant in my experience has always been very clean. Order at the cash register, and the cashier will give you a number and you seat yourself. I've had the pho and the bun thit nuong here and they are both really good. Prices are about $1-2 higher than what you normally see but the quality of the food here compared to other vietnamese restaurants make up for this. read more

Pho Binh is a great stop for Vietnamese food. All the great Yelp reviews are true. The ambience is comfortable and quaint. Some things I loved: the patio, the chalk cartoons on the wall, and the lamp shades. (See pictures) We ordered a variety of items for lunch. One of the most unique items we ordered was the spicy bone marrow as an appetizer. We did not see the word 'spicy' before bone marrow on the menu, so we were in for a surprise. It is served with toasted bread, which is highly needed for the level of spice. It just kept growing. Yet, I would go back for more. If you can't handle spice, don't order it, but it is a tasty dish that is worth the burn. ;) My least favorite item was the combination pho. I didn't enjoy the taste of the broth as much as just a brisket pho. Everything was served quickly and correctly. I really enjoyed the vietnamese sandwich (only $5.50), spring roll with shrimp and peanut sauce, and the slice of carrot cake. While we were there, the owner stopped by our table to make sure everything was going well. Great customer service. If I lived in the area, I would be a regular! read more

Came in on a Sunday evening with family. Parking is an issue, pay to park or find street parking a block or so down. If you are in the area and want pho then check this place out. But I would not make a special trip to the heights for it. Pho was good, the broth did not taste like cheap packet made soup, the price for large was around 8$. The vegetables cold plate was a little sparse compared to some places. I could not tell what was up with the meatballs in the soup. They were not what I have seen before at other places. Were they homemade? If so that's cool. Kids had rice with grilled pork. It had a good flavor but was a bit over cooked. The garlic shrimp were very good. It's all counter order and self serve. Bathroom floors were slippery, like I almost fell down. The tile seemed to not have any grip. All in all enjoyed my soup broth and noodles. I would give this place a 3.75 out of 5. Would return and recommend. read more

Cleanliness: 5 Quality: 5 Service: 5 Taste: 5 Pho lovers!! Pho Binh offers one of the most diverse menus in the Vietnamese fast food game. From the outside, it screams "hole-in-the-wall," and feels like a Ma & Pa shop. The patio seating only emphasizes that next door neighbor feel. Once you enter however, it's a beautiful mesh of cultural & traditional Asian decor with hints of indie & boho style decor. From the exposed brick wall, marble tables, menu wall and wood details. It's just beautiful. So beautiful that I immediately thought, "this is going to be one of those pho joints that's too hip for me." THIS WAS TH BIGGEST LIE!! Here's how things work here. When you walk in, someone behind the counter greets you. There's a path to the counter where you can place your order--a little farther down and you're at the menu wall. To the right of the menu wall is a collage of menu items (to help you visualize what you're getting). Once you've decided on plates, you walk to the counter, place your order, and pay. The cashier hands you a number and you're safe to find your seat. Although this getup omits the chance for you to be waited on, it does not completely erase the service. I find that to be the true advantage here! Now let's talk food! The spring rolls - more specifically the grilled chicken spring rolls are the best I've ever had! How do? This chicken is fresh and grilled just right. The cucumbers are always crunchy and the noodles never taste old. It's a must try! It's a pho joint so of course we want to try the pho. I've had the pho 3 times. I wanted to do it 3 times so that I could make a better judgement on the broth consistency, the quality of ingredients and all. I'm glad to say that I was more than satisfied each time! It feels like home and takes me back. Every sip is a flashback of a 15 year old me, back in Arlington, TX, having pho at Mama Tran's (my neighbor's) table. I plan to try the rice plates for my next few visits. I absolutely love Pho Binh. read more

Wowie this place really surprised me. It was a cold and rainy day so we wanted to grab a hot bowl of pho without having to drive all the way out to Chinatown. We found this place on a whim and was pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere is very hip, divey, and unique. Not like your typical vietnamese restaurant which I found interesting. Usually with places like this you question how authentic their food is, but this place was perfect! I personally like a little bit more flavorful broth instead of a light broth and I loved it here! The only thing I would say is their portions were a little small so I got the large when I would usually order a small at another restaurant. read more

I don't understand why this restaurant is so cheap with providing chili paste. When I order Pho I like to make it spicy. They charged me $0.50 for extra for about a tablespoon and half in little plastic containers. It just irritates me they are petty and honestly it affects whether I go there when ever I choose to eat Pho. read more

Revising to a 5/5. My wife and I have been eating here / pickup 3-4 days a week. The portions have been solid as of late, and the quality of food has been awesome as well. read more

Easy to access location with a decent-sized parking lot. Although a little pricier than other Pho spots in Houston, for the location, it is still very reasonable. The interior is nice, cozy, and casual reminiscent of a small cafe. The service was quick and friendly. Would definitely recommend going for lunch during the weekday as they have a great lunch deal menu! For about $14 you can get a regular bowl of pho + a drink + half an order of egg rolls or spring rolls. The pho broth is flavorful and very soothing during the wintertime. Their shrimp spring rolls are decently sized, but they did fall a part a bit too much when I was eating them. Overall, decent pho spot with good lunch deals! read more

Pho Binh Heights - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pho delicious. Quite and cozy place. Fast service. They have a terrace to eat outside.

If it isn't clear from my Yelp check-ins, I've moved to Houston! And I'll be honest, I've been fighting a lot of stress and haven't had the time or energy to review all the delicious places I've eaten at over the past year. Here's to hoping this new adventure re-energizes my stomach! The five-star rating is clear. Pho Binh is by far the best pho I've had in Houston so far. Between the quick and easy service and the ample seating, this is a perfect place to grab a weekday dinner with a friend while downing a glass or three of wine. You walk in, order at the front, and grab your own table. My friend was having trouble deciding between the pinot noir and a white wine, but the woman at the counter was very knowledgeable about what bottles they had. We appreciated that. It smacks of a French and fast-casual influence in a way that many of its peers don't -- patisserie-level cakes and pinot noirs grace the order bar as do giant menus. Herbs and limes for the pho come separately, but you must grab sriracha, hoisin sauce and water on your own. But the star of the show is a massive bowl of pho dac biet, filled with a dark yet clean broth and brightened with lime, Thai basil and bean sprouts. Their tripe is clean and there's plenty of brisket to go around. Pho Binh's portions are also ridiculous. I was able to finish my bowl of pho, but my dinner companions found themselves struggling and asking for a takeout box. Don't expect to find parking here unless you're coming way after meal rush hours. read more

This was supposed to be a large combination. Very little meat,mostly tender loin and tripe and very little of this. We spent more than $50.00 just 3 or 4 bits. I not recommend to come. Over price and bad quality. I'm not paid $50 for a broth. read more

Honestly this place is over hyped, this is the worst pho soup I ever had. Their smoothies have more flavor then the soup it self. It's as if they water down their broth, and just served it as is. I had high hopes for this place since it had good reviews. Their Vermicelli is missing flavor as well it's just so bland and over priced. I can usually get 5 soups for $60 and today I just only got 3. read more

If I had reviewed them before Hurricane Harvey, they likely would have had 4 stars, but they were one of the only restaurants open the day after the storm, five stars! They truly were a bright spot on a gloomy day. I'll get my negatives out of the way, I don't like counter service, but that seems to be the big trend in Houston. Next is the parking, if it's busy, the parking sucks. Finally is that if you pay separately, your group's food rarely comes out together. The food is excellent. I have had many of their dishes, and everyone has been delicious. They have a fairly large menu, so plenty to choose from for the carnivore or the vegetarian. Finally the cakes are so good, don't know which bakery they come from but definitely give one a try if you have a sweet tooth. Likely will need to take it home since the proportions are fairly large. I tried the 33 beer from Vietnam, it was a nice light beer. Give it a try. If you're in the mood for Asian, specifically Vietnamese cuisine, check them out. read more

Pho Binh Heights - Bahn Mi during Hurricane Harvey, delicious... - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Chicken Pho soup regular with less noodles and white meat is always my to go to. The only annoying thing about coming here is the parking. Sometimes will have to wait an extra 20 mins or so for someone to move, or get lucky and what my significant other and I call VIP parking (empty spot in front when we pull up) This location is very clean comparable to all of the other location. Very fresh. In the past couple months was kinda a hit or miss with how good the food was. Consistency would be my only worry coming here. Other then that when you have perfect parking, and a perfect regular bowl of chicken pho soup, it's a 5/5. The soup itself can cure any hangover, bad day, or even a good day. Especially good during these cold days. The orders come out super fast as well. This is one of my go to spots... read more

This is a decent place to grab Vietnamese food if you are already around the area. They have pho, banh mi (Vietnamese Sandwiches), tapioca, and rice dishes. Many of the items on the menu are the same as what you would find in China town, but the most noticeable difference is the price. Expect to pay double for your banh mi sandwich. A chicken (Ga Nuong) banh mi sandwich costs $7.50 here (as of August 2017), whereas in China town, the same sandwich costs just $3.75 (reference Nguyen Ngo Sandwiches in Bellaire). I grew up eating this stuff all the time and I've never seen anything this high. If I bought my parents a sandwich for that much, they would probably be mad at me before they ate it. With that said though, the location is good and they cater more towards the people who would pay that amount. Pho - (Rating 3.5 / 5) - I ordered a large bowl of special (Dac Biet) pho for $9. The pho had good flavor and included a decent amount of food, but it wasn't anything spectacular. For what you get, I say that it meet's Houston's standard for Pho. My aunt ordered the Lemon Grass tofu to try. The tofu was the right consistency and the overall dish was good, but my aunt suggested there should be more Lemon Grass to truly bring out more flavor (she usually makes this dish at home). Spring rolls and peanut sauce here are good. I would recommend it. Parking lot here is tiny so finding a spot will be a challenge. Overall, this is a decent place for Vietnamese food if you don't mind the value. read more

I've gotten the beef brisket pho twice from here and each time it's been great. I asked for extra limes and most places tend to forget them, but I was given an entire separate bag with five wedges in it, instead of the usual single wedge provided! They even included not only chopsticks and spoon, but also a fork. Everything was packaged neatly and very well with no spills during delivery. Very happy with this food and establishment, and I will be returning. read more
