I've been here a few times and have been pleased with the banh mi sandwiches, egg rolls, and spring rolls. Minus one star for the wait time when ordering in the restaurant. I would recommend ordering ahead and picking up or delivery. As of this review, I have seen the same cars parked in the front row of the restaurant the times I've visited which tells me the employees are parking there. They may consider leaving those spots for the customers. read more

Have been there twice. Food was excellent. You order at the counter and they bring it to you. Paper plates and paper napkins. No service beyond that but fast and good. read more

Great service and food. We will defiantly return. We had the Sandwich and vermicelli bowl.

This is a solid 3.5 stars. Decent Pho and a wonderful staff - super nice & friendly. I always stop in when I'm traveling through area. Nice and clean decor inside, too. read more

This is an awesome little Vietnamese sandwich shop right off the freeway, and in shopping center next to Buc-ee's. They had extremely good customer service, and it seemed to almost be a mom, and pop restaurant as it felt very homey. They had sandwich options, and some noodle options as well with some great boba tea selections. The only thing I was a bit disappointed about was the amount of meat they served with there bowls. Out of all the Vietnamese restaurants I've tried it was probably the one with the least, but there spring rolls, and the egg roll that came with the dish made up for the lack of meat. I loved the decoration inside the building. It had comic book heroes on the tables, and even a small video game machine. I'd return, and try one of the sandwiches next time, and maybe a boba tea as well. read more

I went here a few weeks ago during the late morning. There weren't many customers, so this may have influenced the quality of the food. My Báhn mi baguette was extremely hard - to the point that the outer crust was flaking off and super dry. My pork meet was also pretty dry and sparse. I ordered a vermicelli dish (also pork) for my mother. She enjoyed it and thought all of the ingredients were very fresh. I also ordered some spring rolls, which were good. I've definitely had better (all dishes included), though it's likely that I went during a non-busy hour and the bread wasn't heated fresh. I am inclined to return and give it another try as the main issue was with my Báhn mi. The atmosphere was inviting, and the owners (I believe) were friendly and attentive. read more

Had banh mi, spring rolls, egg rolls, and tapioca drinks. Pork banh mi with pate was good but I didn't get heat from the jalapeño I'm used to. Spring rolls were good- got an extra peanut sauce. They did the sauce right and added some peanuts and sriracha to it. The egg rolls were good and crispy- also with a nice nuoc mam. Milk tea tapioca with a different type of boba was tried. I forgot what kind it was but I like the original black ones better. Overall a good place to eat. Had ours to-go! read more

Retro Cafe is my favorite place to go to for Pho! The owner and other workers are all fantastic. They are willing to help out if you're unsure what to order. My husband and I have ordered countless things on the menu and fall more in love with this place the more things we try. We have started going once a week because we can't go longer than that without our Pho!! read more

Was in the area for work and wanted to find something good to eat. Saw this place on Yelp with good reviews and the name caught my attention. Stopped in and was immediately drawn to the cocktail arcade machines. Also was impressed by the collection of vintage toys and video games on display. The nostalgia bug bit and I was reminded of my childhood. I was warmly greeted and I asked for suggestions on what to eat. I decided on a vermicelli bowl with grilled pork. It came with an eggroll. I also ordered a cafe sua da. The coffee was strong (just what I wanted) and delicious. My bowl came out shortly afterwards and it was wonderful. Great flavors all around. I enjoyed eating it while marveling at the displays on the wall. Afterwards I decided to order some spring rolls to go. I used the opportunity to speak with Tony the owner about his collection of video games. He was genuine in his passion for collecting these toys. It made me happy inside talking old school games. I will be returning again when I have to work in the area. If you had a childhood like I did and/or want delicious Vietnamese food, stop by this place. read more

I ordered through door dash this was my first time trying this place. I didn't get pics we were so hungry. Guys this place is amazing. Pho to go and it was piping hot. The Korean wings were wet with delicious spicy sauce, yet still crispy. I highly recommend. The vita mess eggrolls were crispy fresh tasting. We also had chicken pho and beef pho. A lot of love in the broth. I can't wait to order again. Next time also ordering the Retro wings to try. read more

Food is excellent. Service is friendly. Small, cozy place just West of Bucee's & Floyd's on 290. I come here at least once a week. read more

OMG. What a lucky find. I've been searching for a great Vietnamese place in Cypress. Missed my exit off 290 and happened on Retro Cafe. The Bun (vermicelli bowl) was amazing. So fresh with generous vegetables and cilantro. The wonton soup was the best i have ever had. Don't even think about a meal without starting with the spring rolls. The peanut satay is beyond wonderful. The service is only seconded by the incredible flavor. This is the best value in NW Houston! read more

Delicious food! Banh Mi was just as good as any place in Bellaire. Beef impressed my husband which is hard to do. Only issue with order is we asked for sweet and sour but got fish sauce in 2/3 entrees. read more

I've gone their a couple of times and the fried rice is amazing!!! Large portion and filling, good service, and fun vibe(:

Delicious ! One of the best sandwiches I've had. The Retro rolls are awesome! So happy we stopped in.

Tried this new restaurant today for the first time. Very basic decor but the foods the thing, right. I had a spring roll and chicken pho. My wife had a spring roll and a pork vermicelli bowl. The spring rolls were excellent. Good size with plenty of filling. The peanut sauce was very good and loaded with whole peanuts. My Pho was probably the best I've had in our immediate locale (Cypress TX) and we have quite a few Vietnamese restaurants available. The chicken broth was by no means bland, like it can be in some places. They appear to make it fresh with a number of herbs and spices. Noodles were cooked perfectly. Only complaint was that there could have been more chicken and vegetables. Having said that, I did not come away hungry. It was also delivered at a perfect temperature- steaming hot - unlike a few other restaurants we've been to. My wife's vermicelli bowl was pretty good. The grilled pork was very tasty and well seasoned. My wife thought the pork was a bit tough (maybe over cooked) but she did not leave a morsel. The dipping sauce was great and had a bit of a kick. I wound up finishing her last few scraps of vermicelli and lettuce because I liked the sauce so much. The restaurant is small (about 8 tables). You order at the register and they bring the food to you. The service was outstanding. I think it is run by a mother and son and the son provided our service. He was great. Mom was very helpful getting us things from behind the counter. Will definitely return. I am dying to try their Vietnamese Meatball sandwich. Try it, you'll like it. read more

Food is always great. Love the pork and the vietnamese coffee. The employees are very kind and welcoming, and the restaurant is always clean. read more

The broth of the Pho is unmatched. Delicious in every way! Can't wait to return and try more!

Most awesome little cafe I've seen in a while! Old school comic book theme table, an arcade table, and the wall's filled with comic collectibles. Food was surprising good specifically the pho soup! Most def a spot to hang out. read more

Love their Grilled Beef Banh mi, great staff always friendly and wonderful service. Great prices. Usually eat here once a week or more

Great food with fresh ingredients. Super friendly staff. Grilled beef vermicelli and chicken pho were both excellent. We will be back!

They have a veggie Bahn Mi that is delightful. They use a vegetarian ham, which really gives it a very special flavor. Highly recommend!

This place was delicious! The bahn mi was awesome and my wife loved the vermicelli bowl. I'm normally not a wonton soup fan, but theirs was delicious. Service was good and fast. Only reason not giving five stars is I wish there was more options as far as appetizers and soups go. read more

Love their pho. Super cute decor and the staff is very accommodating. Best pho I've had in Cypress thus far. They even bring it out to my car for me so I don't have to haul my baby in to get my Togo order! read more

My boyfriend and I tried this restaurant tonight and loved it! We could both get an entree and eat for less than $20 with full bellies. The employees were very welcoming and kind. As we were leaving the restaurant started to get a little busier. Great place to eat in Fairfield, highly recommend if you enjoy Vietnamese food! read more

Looking for a Vietnamese place for your go to Pho, Banh Mi, Vermicelli cravings? THIS IS IT. You can taste the authentic and fresh flavors from the first bite. The restaurant was clean and staff was welcoming. We recently moved to cypress and glad to have found our new joint! read more

The Korean wings were the star of the appetizers. The noodle bowls were decent portions but lacking in cilantro and mint. The tables could use a caddy (for spoons, sriracha, s&p) and the place is in dire need of a napkin dispenser. Cool atmosphere and would love to try a banh mi next time. read more

Great steak and meatballs Pho! Ban Mi is super fresh and delicious! Friendly staff. Will be coming back soon! read more

I love this place. Super cool decor and vibe. Bahn mi and the wings are amazing. Best in town!

Great sandwiches! The flavoring is great and very fresh tasting. But you might have to eat there on the spot, might not be as good with take out, I would imagine. The egg rolls are great too - but you have to use the sauce with it or it would be bland alone. Great service as well even though it's more a cafe type setting. Decor is neat, though I am not a gamer. Would definitely go back - too bad they are closed on mondays!! read more

Retro Cafe - Grilled pork sub and egg rolls - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Excellent food, even better service an atmosphere!!! I'll definitely be a regular!!! The sandwiches and Vermicelli are my favorite!!!

Love this place! The food is fresh and tastes great! So glad to have a banh mi place in cypress! My only recommendation/complaint from multiple patrons I've heard was the sandwiches need a little bit more meat in them. Other than that the quality is great!!! We have enjoyed the egg rolls, wonton soup, and the BBQ pork sandwiches. Great addition to the cypress area that we have been needing for so long! Also it would be amazing if they had Thai teas!! read more
