    Fried egg rolls 4 of these tiny things for $9

    No customers when we went in. We were seated and given a menu. Maybe 10 mins before someone comes for our order even though we are clearly ready and the lady is just standing doing nothing. Kind of pricey for the amount of food you get. Got a bowl of vermicelli for $19 and it looked like half the size of most other places.

    I can't wait to come back here and try more things. It seems family owned and they're nice people! I actually ordered this because it looked good in another yelp photo. Great flavor and of course love drenching it in Siracha. My friend loved her pho so I'll have to come back and try that. Tai tea with boba was yummy! I'm surprised the place was not more packed. Only a few other tables were occupied. Clean and well kept.

    We driven by Pho Nguyen a million times but for whatever reason, never tried it...until today. Food was excellent! Perfect temperature. The young man server was very polite and put together, very helpful with the menu. And the ambiance was my personal favorite. It's so very beautiful and bright inside, high ceilings, good energy all around. Flowers everywhere You must try! Ps. Spring rolls are delish

    Everything is always so fresh and delicious! Nice clean atmosphere and just kind people.

    Small quantity of veggies

    I liked the food here. It was really good, but I wish there was more vegetables. I also like that they have containers of chili sauce on the tables. The bun bo hue broth is good. There are a ton of aunties in the kitchen, too, which is a good sign. The grilled pork spring rolls are tasty, but with more veggies, they'd stay together better. This is best bun bo hue I've had in San Antonio.

    Pros - Flavors of the pho was delicious, not too salty - the spring rolls were crunchy and stuffed with filling - ample and easy parking - Good location, you can easily walk around to other stores and dessert places when finished - Server was friendly and food came out wicked fast Cons - I was surprised to see how close their seating was. I'm not sure if they limit their occupancy, but we were lucky that we were the only ones there otherwise I don't think it's very safe - A bowl of white rice was $3!!! - they are quite stingy on the bean sprouts and greens for the pho. Instead of giving a plate to share, they put a small portion of it next to the noodle soup Overall I think they were quite stingy with their food portions, and I didn't feel like it was a 'safe' place to eat during COVID since they didn't seem to have any precautions.

    Pho #3 (well done brisket + round eye steak)

    Wow! We went here on a whim to celebrate my dad's birthday and it was such a good pick! The food was delicious as we got pho and some spring rolls. I'm prone to never finishing my soup broth, but here I had all of it. The service was friendly and felt like family despite me not being Vietnamese, the staff were very welcoming and sweet. Inside this place is beautiful and relaxing with soft music playing and a beautiful mural on the wall. Overall we loved it and hope to come again in the future despite being on the other side of town!!

A few years ago it was Pho. So, I do have a favorite, but I still need to try new places. Well, I am, & this place is pretty phenomenal. The inside is so sweet & simple. You feel real comfortable & peaceful being in there I found them just by driving through the parking lot looking for Holy Pops for a Yelp Elite event. I wanted to try them out, & I'm so happy I did. They exceed my expectations. I walked in & was greeted by one of the waitresses, I let her know it would be a to go order, but I've never been there. She explained how things could be ordered. Steamed vs fried, for example. I regret not snapping photos of the menu, but they have one online. For that matter my food was consumed before a single photo was taken. (That's how you know it's good! At least with me! ) I went with an order of pan fried dumplings, an order of pan fried pork bao, & one order steamed pork bao. Do not be in a rush when you come. Everything is made fresh. You want it to be. Oh my goodness. These bao are amazing. The dough is the perfect thickness, IMO. The meatball inside though mine were a little larger than a golf ball. Juicy, flavorful & couldn't get enough. Made me want a dozen!. Just don't have the stomach to eat that many. Means I'll have to make more trips. The dumplings, pan fried - were so delicious. Again, piping hot! I'd say the little meatball was about half the size of the bao one. I ordered the shrimp, pork & lamb dumplings (I think. ) They had shrimp in them though. And they were amazing Okay, so me saying all my food was piping hot - here's the thing - this place is on Stone Oak, I live in the Brooks City Base area, it was still piping hot when I got home. Y'all know the traffic in this city right now! Don't waste anymore time. Go check them out. Wanna know about the staff? I'll continue! So, my order took about 25 minutes. Okay I ordered a lot, the place was full also, & again everything is made fresh. Oh! Also,you can watch them make it all. The two waitresses & the waiter checked on me often, - (when I came in. I sit in my car most of the time & inform them. Then, I just come sit down.) They apologized & I explained I make this food, I understand & am happy to wait, just means it'll be good. And boy was it!!!!

    It's been a while since I came back to Mian, but everything was still the same in great food!…read more I ordered the beef noodle soup along with pork shrimp chive dumplings! My friend ordered the lamb soup and lamp dumplings, which I was scared to try due to past experiences. Surprisingly, lamb dumplings was a huge hit! I would order that over the pork shrimp chive dumplings. There's a juicy sweetness to the flavors that captivated me. I do say, their noodles, although the menu says wide, they are pretty medium sized thickness. For a Saturday lunch time, it wasn't super busy and the service was on par.

The staff is super friendly and courteous :) ! We usually order the beef vermicelli soup, and a variety of dumplings :D ! They serve our food pretty promptly, with the soup still hot and tasty, and the dumplings steamy and savory :D ! My sister doesn't eat pork. So she typically orders dumplings that don't contain pork. I eat all kinds of meat. So I always order the pork and chive dumplings :D ! Whether you come in on a weekday or weekend, it always helps to come early if you can! If we want to go there for lunch, we try to get there as close to 11 am as possible when they first open. As it gets closer to 12 noon, it starts to get really busy, and it's harder and trickier for the staff to seat you. There is both booth and table seating. It's a great restaurant to catch up with friends, family or even colleagues over a good meal :) ! The parking lot out in front is a pretty decent size. But it can fill up pretty quickly when it gets busy! We also love ordering frozen dumplings to go :D ! For sure, we will definitely come back :D ! Kung Fu Noodle never disappoints :) !

But still, whatever you order here, you're in for something truly special. Despite the sad news of the closing, service was always given with a smile. Our waitress was attentive, helpful, and sweet. I ordered the Hakata Ramen and a Dr Pepper (after my friend and I had coffee at Indy next door). The six minute egg is probably my favorite part. No wait, it's the broth. Or is it the noodles? Ugh, it's all great. The egg was delicious. Jammy yolk. The noodles were springy and chewy. The broth was rich and unctuous. The pork was soft and flavorful. Even when I took the leftovers home, it was still fantastic. The steam facial I received provided much relief from my mountain cedar allergies. There will be a huge ramen-bowl shaped hole in my heart and San Antonio's heart once Noodle Tree closes. They have the best ramen in the city and ramen shops have some incredibly large shoes to fill. Best of luck to you, Chef Mike. Thank you for all the magic you created in your kitchen.

We did have to wait a bit for tables to be pushed together and gotten ready for us but it was less than 10 minutes. We were immediately seated after this was done and the vibes immediately gave off, fast but fresh. We all placed our drink orders almost as soon as we were given menus and our drinks were immediately brought to us within 5 minutes (there was a large group of 8 of us). We placed a large sharable order for the entire table along with our main entrees. There is a notation on the menu stipulating the wait time on the dumplings being a minimum of 15 minutes which was perfectly fine with us all seeing as we could clearly see the dumplings being made fresh from the kitchen from where we were seated (the closest table to the kitchen). Our waitress was extremely patient with us, extremely knowledgeable of the entire menu, AND extremely willing to help us when needed. The dumplings, regardless of which you order- in which WAY they're cooked-are absolutely amazing. Flavorful and filled with juice. AND THOSE AREN'T even the soup dumplings! The soup dumplings (we ordered 3 orders during the sit down meal and ordered 2 to go) were positively amazingly flavored. Well balanced in their taste and was such a delight to eat. Our main dishes came shortly after the dumplings arrived. There were 6 adults and 2 children for this meal. We each ordered our own dishes and shared them amongst each other. One of the dishes ordered was pork belly ramen with no cilantro. As soon as it arrived, although to my pallet, it was beautifully balanced and rich in flavor, the adult whom ordered it did not like it and sent it back to the kitchen. The waitress asked why the food was being sent back to which the response was simply just a taste issue. It was replaced with an order of soup dumplings and the cost of the pork belly was removed from the bill (they did not have to do so but it was absolutely amazing that they did do this). Overall, the food, the experience, and the staff were amazing. We did order 5 dishes fresh to go and they did not disappoint. 1000/1000 will be coming back here again.
