    Two foodies from Houston We are exploring a new place that we saw on Eat Like a Local show back in November. The location is small and what appears to be part shipping container. Customers order their food inside. However, they only have outdoor seating that is clean. Which is a great stability and use of space. We ordered Ribeye Banh Mi and Pork Vermicelli and two eggs rolls. While the food was not to my liking, I do encourage foodies to try it for yourself. Happy eating

    Ribeye Banh Mi

    Where can you purchase a banh mi after 9pm on this side of the loop? Saigon Hustle! Although the prices are a bit higher than I'd prefer for the sandwich, it's worth it for the right sandwich, right? In this case, I hope I received a one off sandwich, because my sandwich was off. The meat didn't feel fresh, the bread needed improvement, and even the sweetness of the BBQ ribeye could not offset strength of the acidity. On the plus side, the cucumber was crisp, and fresh, and the jalapeños were spicy! To this day, I do not know if this location has an inside, but that being said, I do appreciate the customer service, and the convenience of the drive thru. It's certainly a post workout, quick meal type of place. I'll have to try another sandwich when I'm in the area. Again, hoping this was just as off day!

    It was a very chill and calm place. Lady at the front was super nice and it was nicely clean.

    Chicken Wings and Tofu Tots

    Stopped by around lunchtime, it was too hot to sit outside so we went through the drive-thru. It was a struggle to order, the girls inside could barely hear us and we could barely hear them. We only ordered three items and it took almost 5 minutes for them to move us to the window because we had to repeat ourselves so much. I ordered the chicken wings and they were decent, the flavor was okay and they were crispy. I also had the tofu tots but those were not my vibe at all. I was expecting crispy fried tofu and instead I got some soggy breaded tofu drenched in sauce at the bottom, not good. My coworkers both enjoyed their ribeye spring rolls. I tried one too and they were good, the ribeye had a nice flavor. Overall, it wasn't horrible but I don't think I'd try it again especially not for lunch because it took up quite a bit of time.

    Haha, had to include this. This is just convenient. The hand drier is built into the faucet.

    They are so friendly and service with a smile must be their specialty. My Honey Glazed Lemongrass Crispy Tofu was delicious. I sat outside where the gas station pumps used to be and they brought me my lunch. I really enjoyed my meal. Want to try their Chargrilled BBQ Ribeye Roll next.

    All that I can say is that I am addicted to the Soy Chicken Bowl!! I get the buy one get one free and save for lunch the next day! The chicken is flame broiled and so good with the seasoning. I also get the vegan vinaigrette.

    Similar levels of services provided here compared with those from the Spring Branch location - same delicious Banh Mi. However, I don't recommend the Chicken Pho which greatly disappointed me. The usual Vietnamese noodle soup uses Asian chicken of which the skin is yellow and the choppedd meat is flavorful and juicy. Instead, ther chicken is the regular American chicken which is sliced and skinless. The meat is also dry as usual.

The filling is placed in a pan and then a thin layer of batter made with tumeric and coconut milk yellow batter is poured on top. You wrap the lettuce around the bánh xèo/bánh khọt and dip it in the fish sauce. I got the bánh khọt and the bò né. Bánh khọt is like a mini, thicker version of bánh xèo and came with nine pieces. Their bánh khọt was crispy, sweet and savory, and went well with the fish sauce. Although the portions initally look small, they are very filling. The bò né was filling and sizzling when it came out. It also came with a side of salad. The meat was tender. I really liked the bánh khọt and would definitely come back for them. It's nice having an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in our area, close to us, so we don't have to make the trek to Bellaire every time we crave some Viet food!

    Typically, when an Asian business has a cheeky name like Xeo Yum, it's widely assumed that it's…read moreheavily Americanized and therefore shouldn't be taken seriously. I couldn't have been more wrong. Xeo Yum (#1) as it turns out is one of the most legit Vietnamese places in Midtown serving up some of the city's best banh xeo and banh khot. Located inside of a Food Hall (#2) in the back corner, they have low-key become a destination and without question, the most popular stall in the entire place. The fan base didn't happen overnight but is a direct result of Chef Cuong Nguyen's commitment to quality Vietnamese fare. Banh Xeo is their signature item, which is also known as a sizzling crepe or pancake made of rice flour, tumeric, and coconut milk. The banh xeo holds well, is perfectly crispy, and is nicely stuffed with an assortment of beans sprouts, shrimp, and some of the best grilled pork belly I've had. Another specialty item that doesn't get enough mention is their banh khot, which is similar but has a mini muffin / cupcake like appearance made in a specialty cast iron mold. This version is wonderfully crispy and pairs perfectly with fresh greens and fish sauce with some funk. It is my favorite item here. Some have argued they also serve one of the best bo ne (#3), the Vietnamese version of steak and eggs served in a skillet. The chunks of beef are nice and tender with just a tad of char, served with two fried eggs, and a banh mi baguette with a mix of butter and spare. Normally I think of spam or sausage included with the meats, but Chef Cuong's spin is with cherry tomatoes. It's a different approach and I'm not mad at it. Folks not looking for this can shoot for bo luc lac, aka shaking beef, which is also recommended. The staff here is sweet, hard-working, and very friendly. They also make a mean Vietnamese coffee and offer free iced self-serve water. The prices are what I would expect in a Midtown food hall, and there's plenty of seating. Anyone checking out the food hall need to make Xeo Yum as part of their eating itinerary. __________ (#1) A play on the Vietnamese sizzling crepe, Banh "xeo" and yum" (#2) Previously the Conservatory and now Stestí Food Hall.

When I arrived there was nobody dining in the restaurant, that was a bit worrying, but I figured it was a bit early for the dinner crowd and late for the lunch crowd. Food & Drink - 4.5* First up was the noodles, I enjoyed them, but I wouldn't say the hype I'd heard about from some others was there. They had nice flavor, but there just wasn't anything "special." 3.5* Then it was on to the crawfish, and my oh my. Superb, the flavor is delicious and unique. This more than made up for the noodles dish. The potato and corn was good too. Service - 5* Solid. When I first arrived the owner was quietly reading a newspaper and eating his own lunch. He paused to greet me and advised that I could sit anywhere. He provided water and adequate time to determine what I wanted to order. The food came out quickly and he checked in a few times to make sure everything was ok. As time went by, the crowd of folks showing up increased quite a bit and he still managed to check in on tables consistently. Pricing - 4* This is where it was odd. Always subjective but I found the noodles to be overpriced for not only the size but what I felt was a pretty simple dish. The crawfish on the other hand was priced very competitively and made up for the overpriced noodles. I provided pics of the menu for someone to make their own assessment but in general I thought many of the dishes were pricier than they probably should be. I know inflation is certainly killing many businesses and consumers but even these felt a bit off. Overall - 4.5* This is definitely going to be one of my go tos for crawfish when in the area. The flavor is fantastic, the pricing is good, the size of them were solid. There are a couple of other dishes I may try on the next visit. The restaurant is clean, the owner is very nice, and it's a nice low key space to just enjoy a good meal with friends or family.

The restaurant was easy to find, right off Main Street, and parking was a breeze. When we walked in, the restaurant had a modern look with a beautiful mural celebrating the homeland. We were greeted and told to sit wherever we'd like, so we picked a table and settled in. Our server came by with the menus, napkins, utensils, and plates, all neatly stacked, and then gave us some time before coming back to take our order. We ordered several different bowls of pho so everyone could try something -- salmon, steak and meatballs, and the combo (đặc biệt). Of course, we also had to try their dry pho. We also noticed they had a mango salad with a choice of protein, and since that sounded intriguing, we decided to give that a try too. The mango salad came out first, and I'm honestly still not quite sure how I feel about it. The mango was tart, and there was a creamy element that gave the salad an interesting texture and flavor. I did really like the grilled shrimp, though. Out of the protein options, I'd recommend the shrimp with this salad, although I could also see chicken pairing well with the flavors. Then came the pho. We tried several different broths, and they were all flavorful on their own. I didn't feel like they needed anything added unless you prefer extra spice or seasoning. I also really appreciated how generous they were with the basil. There was plenty to go around, which is always a win when you're eating pho! As we finished up, our server came back to the table with our check and small spoons filled with what looked like crème brûlée. We asked her what it was, and she said she didn't know. We mentioned that it looked like crème brûlée, and she agreed before walking away. I'm not sure if this was something complimentary, a leftover from another dish, or something we were supposed to know about, but it was definitely an unexpected ending to the meal. If you know what this was, I'd love to know! Overall, we'd definitely come back. The food was great, the pho was flavorful, and there were plenty of options for everyone. The service could use a little improvement. Our server seemed to have some difficulty communicating in English, and we could have used a few water refills during the meal. Nothing major -- we probably just needed to speak up more. Good food, easy parking, a nice atmosphere, and a family-friendly menu. We'd come back to try more of what Old Saigon has to offer.

There was a small garnish of pickled onions and shredded carrot that went so well with the pork bowls. If they included more of that, the bowls would have been star status. But they didn't. And they weren't. Overall, I had a decent lunch. Maybe next time I'll dine in to see if that makes a difference.
