    Beef Pho Beef Noodle Soup (Pho)
    Charity J.

    Corner 99 has a lot going for it. We've tried to eat here many times since they opened and we always missed the connection. Finally we made it work! Thank goodness. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is cute, the energy is good... and the volume is LOUD.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had two kids across from us screaming like they were auditioning for a horror movie, so conversation was basically optional.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not the restaurant's fault, but definitely part of the experience. Now the food? Genuinely delicious. My husband ordered the pho and ended up emptying two bowls of chili sauce into it -- and it was still on the mild side. Flavorful, yes. Spicy, not so much. If you love heat, you'll want to BYO fire. I ordered the tofu vermicelli and it was fantastic. Fresh, flavorful, great texture -- it just needed a little kick to make it perfect. Same with the spring rolls. Still, I was honestly thrilled to see a full vegetarian section on the menu. As a vegan‑who‑still‑eats‑cheese (cheese‑itarian life), having real options felt like a win. And bonus points: they've got a killer local beer selection. Plenty of great choices, and it pairs perfectly with the food. Bottom line: Corner 99 serves great food with thoughtful vegetarian choices and awesome local beers, but if you're a spice lover, you'll be doing your own heavy lifting. And maybe bring noise‑canceling headphones just in case the kid choir is performing again.

    Shaking Beef with Fried Rice

    My wife and I are regulars here for their banh canh cua and bun cha hanoi. Both dishes are so delicious. I don't even like banh canh unless I get it from here. The broth is so flavorful, full of depth, and the pork that comes with it is probably the most tender pork I've ever had in my life. The broth for bun cha is kind of lacking at most places I've tried in town, but not here! This place has easily become one of our favorites!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]My friends and I visited on a Saturday night and surprisingly, there weren't that many people inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated right away and I noticed that the water cups/dishes they use here are pretty cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friends ordered an appetizer (skewer) and beer and said they were both good. As for the entree, I ordered the Bahn Can Cua (tapioca noodles with shrimp, crab, and pork). I'm personally someone who is super picky with anything pork related and really sensitive to gamey tastes. The soup was a little too strong for me at first but when I added the lime, it was significantly better. The pork slices, shrimp, and crab were all delicious! Overall, it wasn't the best bahn can cua I ever had but it wasn't bad at all! Service was good too.

    Shaking Tofu with Fried Rice

    Enjoyed this place, it's considered "modern Vietnamese" we enjoyed this place a lot. Simple menu, and portions sizes are decent. I read this review about the banh canh, so I ordered it. And it's good!!! If we come back I want to try the pho and a few other things Service was great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]And ambiance is nice and clean, plenty of parking around as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's also a beer menu for beer enthusiasts

    I got the chicken wings, pork chop rice, Cahn chua and their skewer combo. The wings were really good, the flavors hit. Pork chop rice was definitely one of the better pork chop I've had in Houston. It was tender and flavor was really good. I wouldn't recommend the skewers. All of them came out really dry and were lacking flavor. Other than that everything was pretty good.

    There are a lot of Vietnamese options around this area, but this one is definitely worth trying out! I was in the mood for pho and in the area around lunch. I branched out and tried the lemongrass beef broth soup instead of pho. It was a treat and will have to become another go-to. It was plenty of soup for me to also have dinner. The broth and beef were so flavorful and hearty. The Vietnamese coffee was great too, super strong as Vietnamese coffee is and definitely a pick me up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The server was nice and it was a cute little place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Tofu stir-fried Egg Noodle

    What a great find. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Little touches like the drink menu and chopstick box were things that made the restaurant special.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Delicious brisket fried rice and tofu stir fry were perfectly cooked and flavorful. Several beers to choose from and they also do flights.

    Came here really wanting to try their fish sauce chicken wings. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a modern interior decor with hanging light bulbs and plenty of natural lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Servers are quick and attentive. The tables are already set with a cool set of mugs and silverware, but had to ask for napkins. We got the corner 99 fish sauce chicken wings (appetizer) for an entree with a side of white steamed rice (extra $2). I got the banh canh cua soup. Chicken wings 5/5. Definitely tasted way better than it looked. Fresh, well seasoned and cooked. Amazing fish sauce flavor and not too watered down. Perfectly fried. Banh canh 5/5. Came with extra chili flakes and lime. The tapioca noodles were a bit slightly over cooked for my personal taste-- I like them a bit chewier. But the broth was so good, finished the entire bowl. The 3 shrimps were colossal, and the crab meat and pork were plentiful. Very satisfied with this meal and no longer will need to make our own fish sauce chicken wings. This place is legit!

    Utensil box

    Myself and my family have been coming to Corner 99 since it opened. We can order off the menu without even looking because we all know exactly what we've come for. Over time I've felt as though I may have been overreacting but our last visit solidified that we won't be back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cleanliness and sanitation is of the utmost importance when I'm out dining with my family.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's no telling what happens in the kitchen but we of course can see what happens otherwise. One waiter that has been there a while has consistently bad dandruff. I let it go initially because he didn't serve us our food but in the back of my mind it was unsettling to think that could be flying into the food. This past Sunday we went and the man serving our food put a dish on the table and proceeded to sniff and wipe his nose with his hands before taking so much as a step back from the table. Not just a one off, repeatedly. I counted 3 times. He then proceeded to wipe his nose with his shirt and pick at his nose as he went to grab a cup of hot water I requested. He also got on his phone and took a call only to go back serving. My husband politely asked him to return the cup and wash his hands to which he obliged. That did it for me though. I was absolutely disgusted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]That hot water was requested because we soak our silverware due to it coming in this community box that sits on the tables now instead of individually distributed utensils.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This done in order to enjoy a place we've come to from the beginning but it's just not worth it at this point. Hopefully some training will take place and more sanitary practices will begin for their current and future customers. They deserve at minimum, that. We, unfortunately, won't be back. To be clear, I did ask for the manager but was told they left after a large party was served earlier that day.

    Salt and Pepper Calamari
    Chau L.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute little Vietnamese restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good. We ordered: - Pork skewer | 7.5/10 - Tender and flavorful - Salt and pepper calamari | 5/10 - Too salty and wasn't crispy - Bánh canh cua | Didn't try, but my mom said she would not order it again - Smoked brisket pho | 7/10 - Liked the brisket, pretty solid pho - Hot cheek dumpling | 5/10 - Dumplings were already falling apart before I even ate any. Wasn't bad, but wouldn't get again - Shaking tofu with fried rice | 5.5/10 - Sauce was pretty good, paired well with the rice. But tofu wasn't crispy at all which was disappointing - Thai green milk tea | 7/10 - A bit too sweet at first sip, but tasted better once the ice melted more

    The banh canh cua was FIRE!! The broth was so flavorful and they did not skip out on the crab meat. This has got to be the best banh canh in Houston. Brisket Bun Bo hue was good however I think I would get the normal one next time. I personally don't think brisket goes with BBH however my fiance seems to really like it! The broth was flavorful and overall a great dish. Great customer service and [[HIGHLIGHT]]very clean restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cute ambience![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Vermicelli with chicken to go

    I previously gave this restaurant 5 stars but lately the customer service is lacking. The food is still delicious but I'm going to try another Vietnamese place in the area a friend told me about and see if their service is good. Corner 99 used to have a woman who worked there was very good and knew her regulars and anticipated needs like extra sauce before you even asked. Hire her back if you can

You can come casual & still have elevated cocktails in an adult lounge atmosphere. I am not a beer drinker so I come to seat in the lounge. The cocktails are well balanced & enjoyable. I love that you can order their more creative drinks or stick to the classics. They do both drink types well! I tried the food this time. The chicken sliders & the hamburger sliders were both very tasty. I would absolutely get them again. This is a really great place to stop by when you want a grown atmosphere in a casual setting or if you want a great cocktail when you are with the family.

Great drinks and great vibe are very hard to beat. Food here is more than a just bar food, it's actually good. The menu will never be the main driver of coming back but it hits the spot so still come hungry. The lounge is smaller and darker lighting than the beer hall but still very spacious. The music is loud enough to enjoy but doesn't interfere with a table conversation. I'll continue to pass up many bars to get here in the future.

    I haven't been to this spot in years. I forgot how good this place was!…read more Music is always popping here. I came in on a Friday night, and they had a live DJ playing. The music is a mix of EDM, Hip-hop, Rap, and R&B. They have tables and bar top seating. If you have a bigger group, I'm sure you can find a table depending on the time you arrive. There is a lot of seating. To start off, I ordered the Matcha Martini. It was STRONG omg, definitely a sipper, but it was so good. It was creamy and had a good matcha flavor. I love how they added matcha powder on top. For drinks, I also tried their espresso martini and Bubbly Pineapple. The espressos here are good, no complaints. The Bubbly Pineapple is so cute; it comes out with a bubble of smoke you can pop. The drink is very refreshing; it really tastes like pineapple. FYI, the drink has little black seeds, so if you don't like textures in your drink, maybe this one isn't for you. Also the drink came with a little frozen pineapple you can add to your drink once you pop the bubble As an appetizer, I got a dozen raw oysters and decided to add the $5 tobiko (fish eggs). Let me say, they were not stingy with the Tobiko, there was so much on my Oysters, I mean a lot! The oysters were good, and so was the tobiko, but I feel that with so much tobiko, it kind of took away from the oysters. Still good though, especially for $21 for the dozen with the tobiko! It was very filling I'm not gonna lie, I got pretty full with the oysters, but I still had to eat my entree As an entree, I ordered the Short Ribs, which came with rice and a side salad. I didn't think I was going to eat much of my entree since the oysters had filled me up, but I ate the short ribs down to the bone! Every single one of those ribs I devoured, no meat was left on my plate. I didn't have space to eat, but my stomach made space for this. 10/10 would recommend the short ribs, especially with the delicious sauce it came with. I think it's like a fish sauce 10/10 for food and drinks. Bonus: the staff here is really friendly. I really enjoyed my time here. I need to come more often for sure, this is definitely a Katy gem

The music is pumping loudly with no DJ but at 9p the DJ came in & took the music up another level! I think the older folks come out early & likely the younger people take over after 10 or 11p.
