Goi Sua Tom Thit
Paul C.

Great little place for authentic Vietnamese food. Don't be surprised if you are the only non-Vietnamese in the place. Tonight I was, but I hung with the brothers to enjoy some of my favorite food. Goi Sua Tom Thit - This is the popular shrimp and jellyfish salad that is lightly tossed with nuoc man. That sweet and savory mixture that is made using fish sauce. I thought this dish was outstanding. The vegetables were fresh and crisp, and the ingredients were perfectly balanced. Bo Luc Lac - Also know as Shaking Beef, this dish is a stir fry of marinated cubes of beef steak. The meat was tender and flavorful. Some Vietnamese people will mix a concoction of lime juice, salt, and pepper to dip the steak in. Don't knock it until you've tried it. Tom Rang Moi - Salt fried shrimp still in their shell is a crunchy delight. The shrimp were large and fried to perfection. I don't eat the tail or the head, but many people will wear it all out. Just be sure to chew well. Rau Muong Xiao Toi - I am told that this green leafy vegetable is very common in Southeast Asia. But it is an invasive species in the US. There are US agriculture regulations to control the growth and spread of it's production. Ultimately this has affected the price of this simple dish. I don't know if this is true or not but it's a conversation starter. I had to withhold the fifth star on my review because the restaurant didn't feel that clean to me. Unfortunately that is pretty typical of the Asian restaurants around here.

Bun Mang Vit Dac Biet

Bun mang vit and ca kho tho were amazing! Called ahead to order and food came out hot. Friendly service. Small and medium size group seating. Would come again!

Kristy S.

Service is good. Lots of good looking food on menu including duck blood. I ordered banh khot which came after my bowl of soup. Food was good. Fast & hot. Fresh veggies.

Don't be fooled by the other reviews that give this place 4 stars or better because like others have stated. This place is dirty and stinky even by China/Viet town standards. They take credit card but their water and ice were so bad in both the drinks and in food with a high concentration of liquid smells like moldy water lines. This isn't just typical city of Houston gross water-- there is something truly foul in his place's water. It smells up all the food and all over the place. Let's put it this way-- I poured a whole can of coke in their ice. It was undrinkable. Switched out with water only, no ice-- same taste. Tried to eat their cold duck dish and soup.. guess what even with a pallete cleanse (brought my own water to wash it out)-- still smelled and tasted totally off. If you don't smell or taste the dirty then God help you. BTW is my third time herewith different people each time and it's never any better. Why did I come here three times then? Others wanted Viet late night and didn't trust me when I told them.

Speedy service, clean interiors and delicious food! They have hand sanitizer when you walk in. Also hand sanitizer in the bathroom. They accept Visa and Mastercard credit cards, not American Express.

Came here with the in-laws because the duck was recommended. It's a generally small quaint restaurant with plenty of booth seating and 3 large circular tables. We had called in advance for a table of 15, however upon arrival, no table was reserved. We took a table of 8 take until the tables next to us opened up to combine. Food was average and typical like any Vietnamese restaurant in China Town. They have the sugar cane juice that everyone likes. All made/prepared. Can't really say anything unique about the place but had the extensive menu. The family ordered bo luc lac (steak tips), muc rang moui (fried salted squid), banh xeo (viet pancake), bo Thai Chanh (lemony beef), sour fish soup, snails, and the duck. Service was really, really, slow. The staff would disappear for long periods of time and when you try to get their attention, they pretend not to see. You'll need patience when dining here but seems like most patrons aren't in a hurry. ..but I was hungry.

Com tam dac Biet
Khiem L.

I've often had com phan here but this time we changed it up. We each ordered our own thing. Our table had the banh xeo, some chao ga, some bun man vit, com tam dac biet, bun bo hue, and mi xao don. I only got to sample the banh xeo and the com tam. The remaining foods looked and smelled excellent but I didn't get a taste. The banh xeo is ginormous and crispy, full of goodness. It stayed crunchy but it was loaded with sprouts and the banh itself was more coconut than I'd prefer on mine. The com tam was extremely good, with the dac biet being full of so many different things. The portion and price are definitely worth it. Based on past visits, I'd have to recommend the com phan though, with shout outs to the canh chua and ca kho to. Small, out of the way, tasty, and not insanely busy make this one of my favorite places to eat.

Skeii C.

We ordered the family style combination for 6 people but the food was more than enough for the eight of us. About $60 pretax. While large in portions, the taste was mediocre. I've had better elsewhere. The combination included canh chua (almost a sweet sour soup with lots of vegetables and fish), goi tom & tai heo (shrimp & pigs ear salad), ca kho to (claypot catfish), muc chien (fried calamari), cai lan xao thit bo (Chinese broccoli & beef), and another fried fish I forgot the name of. Service was very slow. There were only about 4 tables, including us and a big round table that was not cleaned up. Where did our servers go? They, as in all FIVE servers, all pitch in to clean up the table leaving no one to attend to any of their customers. Aside from the combination dishes we also ordered a separate dish: banh xeo (Vietnamese crepe) with just shrimp that came with the side vegetables. (You can choose with shrimp & pork.)It was a big crepe, however we only had roughly 4-5 small shrimp in it and what seems to be an unlimited amount of beansprouts inside. I was not a happy camper. The crepe also had a coconut taste for the flour they choose which I wasn't a fan of either. Overall visit 3/5. I will continue to look else for better vietnamese food.

Duck blood and other crazy shiet.
Tim J.

This marks the second time in my life, where I had to keep drinking to prevent vomiting. The making of congealed duck blood reminds me of paganism rituals, and a bad attempt at shock and awe. Every bite, even though it didnt taste bad, triggered a sense of digestive tract control. Watching it quiver on the big chip thing you eat it with, looking at other people digging in to something that looks like the leftover on the floor of a butcher shop, makes me look away. The fact this dish exists makes me wonder if evolution is that evolutionary, or have we peaked? Honestly don't know how to review this place as I lost my appetite after 2 attempt. So I took off a star for each bite.

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.

This spot is low key with a nice, clean interior and friendly service. I visited here to check out…read moresome noodles and crawfish. 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.

One of the best Vietnamese places I've ever been hands down. I still think about it a year later…read more They had a very big variety of food on the menu, so you could have your fill of Vietnamese dishes. I believe the crawfish is seasonal, so go during crawfish season because this pho was delicious. The crawfish were so tender and the pho was so flavorful. The beef dish was also so good to eat and balanced. The fried beef balanced so well with the fresh salad and rice. I will say that when we went the parking lot was a little deserted at night. I would definitely lock your doors and take all your valuables. But that's all or Houston, so just stay safe!

I don't think I've ever consumed so much shrimp paste in my life, so if you don't like that flavor you probably wanna go elsewhere, but other than that everything was just really comforting and nice to eat. My least favorite of what we got was the Banh Bot Chien, and even that was still really good and had a nice crunch. Everything else we ordered was all really authentic and very forward with flavor. The restaurant was incredibly busy on the Saturday we went, with the bustling lunch crowd of both large families and old couples filling up the entire restaurant, so try to go at an off-hour where most people aren't eating. It was just an incredible experience that I 100% recommend to anyone wanting authentic Vietnamese food.

I've been going here for several years, both in person and for take-outs, and they have never failed to impress me. I like to go here for late lunch or early dinner when the restaurant isn't as busy. The restaurant is in the same shopping center as the Chase Bank and Thanh Da Quan. Even though it's located on the far side of Chinatown near My Hoa Market, the drive is definitely worth it. The restaurant is small and well decorated, and the workers are nice. The dishes are a bit pricey compared to other Vietnamese restaurants for the portion size, but the taste and quality definitely make it worth it. Even my parents, who are super picky when it comes to Vietnamese restaurants, love the food at Com Nieu Houston. Like the name, most of the dishes here are in clay pots. Everything is always super flavorful and perfectly cooked. My absolute favorites are the Thit Ba Chi Kho To (caramelized pork belly), the Suon Non Rim To (braised spare ribs) and the Canh Chua Tom (Vietnamese sweet and sour soup with shrimps). I also really love their Com Chien Ca Man (salted fish & chicken fried rice), which I think is one of the best in town, as well as their Ga Kho Xa Ot (braised lemongrass chicken). The Ca Bong Lau Kho To (caramelized catfish) is my parents' favorite. Photos are from my most recent visit.

The mochi was cooked so perfectly as every bite was so chewy and soft with no hard clumps at all. The meat that came with them as well were so sweet and tender. The vermicelli plate was awesome too as you can make a wrap with the lettuce and veggies and rice noodles and they all come together to mouthwatering perfection.
