    A mainstay on the Viet side of Bellaire, Di An Pho (#1) has steadily become one of the most hyped Vietnamese establishments in recent memory. For over a year, it's been hit and has become a mainstay in the neverending Houston pho debate. The community has responded well, the promotions as are non-stop, and vibe is contagious. More importantly, the pho is on point and the consistency is appreciated. It's a beautiful place. A lot of thought was put into the decor as well as utensils. Their chopsticks and soup spoons are branded and the chopsticks can be taken home. The constant Viet pop music Branded materials such as chopsticks that are take home as well as soup spoons. They're super . The constant Viet pop music most definitely passes the vibe check. Minus a goi cuon and goi salad option, the menu is mainly just pho in both beef and chicken broth. There are no veggie, seafood, or over the top variations. This is strictly pho with different cuts and a very clean broth. Their combination XL has been my go-to always, the quality of the meat and herbs arae excellent. I just wish there was more of it. Their pho ga (chicken) is one of the better ones in the city. The broth is pristine and flavorful and the chicken chunks really complement the soup . In terms of apps, the goi and goi cuon are solid, but nothing outshines the pho. Their coffee promotion (free + entree) was such a fabulous deal for a long time. Fingers crossed they bring it back. __________ (#1) "Go eat pho"

    Service was slow, granted they were busy. I like the custom chopsticks that you get to keep. The atmosphere feels inviting and they there's culture in the artistic designs. I enjoyed their coffee my favorite so far was the creamy Vietnamese coffee with pandan foam. The pho was actually mid. The broth was a bit bland for me usually I like a rich broth where I don't even need to add sriracha or hoisin sauces. They only had the pho dac biet in the large size so unfortunately that's just too much pho for me. So, I had to get a different pho dish to get a size small.

    When we arrive, we thought there were no customers looking from outside. We were surprised to see so many customers once we went inside. They let us take back the bamboo chopsticks after eating, just have to slip it back into the bag it originally came in. I also ordered the bac xiu, and it was very good. The chicken broth was ok overall, but I think I like the coffee drink mores than the pho. I like the dipping sauce though. It's a nice touch. Also tried the salted lemon drink which is different, but my mom liked it. The staff were excellent and were helpful. The restaurant itself is also very nice. Will visit again!

    My usual spot was closed and I've seen a lot about this new place or at least new to me. The main draw was the summer special where you can get a $2 Vietnamese coffee. It was amazing! I asked if they sell the coffee beans but they don't. This may be my new go to when I'm in the area. It reminded me of pho from my mom's kitchen. Equal noodles and meat! I feel like most places don't even enough meat. The broth is delicious and aromatic on its own. You also get to keep the branded chopsticks. I'll be back to try their other coffee drinks.

    I heard about this place and wanted to give it a try as it's one of the newer Pho places in Alief. The place is cute with a light decor and good vibe. Easy parking out front but plenty more in the back of the front is full. I had the 2nd beef pho with both beef balls and thinner cuts of beef. They have three sizes small, large, and XL. I went with the XL since it was only $2 more and it was a late lunch (got there about 130). Also opted for the fresh wide noodles for the extra $1 rather than regular Pho noodles. The large probably would have been plenty, given that's is 720 and I'm ready to skip dinner. Haha I quite enjoyed the broth and the noodles. Lots of meat in the dish. The beef balls were a little firmer than I would have liked which would have made this place a 4. However, as a bonus ordering a large or XL, I got a free iced Vietnamese coffee. This totally brought it up to a 5!

    This might just become my family's go-to pho spot in Bellaire. We had been seeing Di An Pho pop up on social media for a while, so we finally decided to check it out. We were seated right away when we walked in. The space is open, bright, and very clean. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made ordering feel effortless. Our food also arrived impressively fast. The pho itself was flavorful and comforting, with plenty of meat. A nice bonus is that ordering a large pho comes with a free coffee. Honestly, the coffee deserves its own spotlight. We tried the ca phe ube and the ca phe trung, and both were rich and tasty. Between the spectacular service, delicious pho, and surprisingly great coffee, it is easy to see why this place keeps gaining attention online. There was a steady flow of customers the entire time we were there, which says a lot. We will definitely be back!

    Don't sleep on the GOAT di an pho! I appreciated how they used a wider bowl to get you to appreciate the clear broth. Good portion of different meats in the pho dac biet. Best part is a large pho comes with a free iced coffee (I believe +$1 for viet iced coffee, which ngl was a little too chocolate-y for me) and you can take home the chopsticks!

    This place has gotten all the hype recently on social media and while it was decent, I wouldn't say it's enough to warrant all the hype. For starters, there's plenty of parking, they were running a promotion of getting a free vietnamese iced coffee (no substitutions) with your meal, and yes, you get to keep the chopsticks if you so please. Service was quick and place was large and clean. What was lacking was the flavor in the broth. It was good, but not incredible as many have said. Maybe I'm just used to deep, complex flavor in my broth, but this just didn't do it for me. Quite a few of the meat pieces were pretty dry and definitely needed sauce, but the one standout meat piece was the brisket, which was nice and tender. Overall, it's a decent spot if you're in the plaza, but there are plenty of other great pho spots in the Bellaire area.

    So glad we finally got to try this place! Tried to come a few times when they first opened and they were either sold out or the wait was a few hours. There is ample parking in the back, but can get full sometimes. We came around 9PM on a weekday so it was fairly empty. The restaurant has a great interior, very aesthetic and spacious. The service was quick and everyone was so nice and accommodating to any requests we had. They have S, L, XL sizes for their pho bo. We ordered the L pho tai and XL pho tai bo vien. The L was the perfect portion for me and I think the S wouldn't have been enough - good if you want something lighter or maybe for kids. The pho broth was clear and flavorful and the meat was decent quality. It's not the best pho I've had, but was solid and something I'd come back to! For drinks we got the bac xiu la dua (pandan foam), ca phe sua daddy (the original viet coffee), and sua dau nanh lanh (iced soymilk). Coffee was nice and strong! At the time we went, there was a special going on where you get a free coffee for any Large bowl of pho, which was really nice! I really liked the high-quality chopsticks and how they encourage you to wrap them back up & take them home. Such a cute idea and I still use them! Highly recommend!

    Went here to meet up with some friends. Didn't realize it was their re-grand opening for the restaurant. They were giving away free shirts to the first 100 customers. Guess it was just good timing for us. They had a special going on if you ordered a pho, you got a regular Vietnamese coffee for free. The restaurant itself isn't too big due to the design of the place. Service was quick and fast. I got a pho with brisket and meatball and a regular Vietnamese coffee. Overall, it had a nice taste, but it was too fatty. The coffee had a nice balance of bitterness and sweetness. The parking lot is on the smaller side, and they share it with multiple other shops. So come a little early to find a space.

    5 stars mainly for amazing service, nice ambience, and coffee! Tri, our waiter, was attentive and friendly throughout the dining experience. Di An Pho was busy even before noon. Initially waited for a table but got offered bar seating sooner instead, which we didn't mind. Ordered pho tai. Not the best broth ever but it was still a solid bowl (4 stars). They have a promo for free ca phe if you get a large bowl. Ca phe muoi (salted coffee) was my favorite! Ube ca phe & pandan bac xiu were pretty good as well! It's cute that you leave with a chopstick souvenir!

    Viet coffee with ube foam and bac xiu with pandan foam

    Solid pho spot on Bellaire! Although located more west from all the other Chinatown spots, it's worth a drive. Can't say I tried their chicken pho (which is why I'm reserving my last star), but their house special pho (P6) was not a disappointment. If you order a large pho, you get a free coffee! So we ordered the viet coffee with ube foam and the bac xiu with pandan foam. Both were really good. The bac xiu is slightly creamier than the viet coffee. You can definitely taste the flavors of ube and pandan in their cold foams. Would recommend trying. Ambiance is nice. It's bright and clean. The service is quick and they were nice to answer any questions. Also by the way, you get to keep the chopsticks. Parking was okay, but if it's at peak hour, I think it could be full and hard to park. Overall, great experience at a reasonable price and would definitely come back again. Thanks, Di An Pho!

    Henry Y.

    Came during the opening when it was 50% off, so it made the drive deep into Alief more palatable. The line at the time was crazy but there was comfortable seating. Plenty of parking in the back. Food-wise, I don't think the pho particularly stood out. Pho was as expected. The, at the time, $17 for an XL was CRAZY to me, when you can find similar sizes sub-$15 easily. And then the portions didn't look like a large to me. I got the pho tai bo vien (filet and meatballs), and it was only 6 ball-quarters, again CRAZY. Service was okay, and they do everything off the ipad. Keeping your chopsticks is kinda a nice plus, though I'd rather not keep them, and just shave $1-2 off my pho.

These sandwiches were stunning and wonderful. I saved half for to go so I could have their classic New York Cheesecake... the best in the city. The entire dining experience was top notch, exactly the experience I always have. Ziggy knows how to make the customers dining experience an "experience", I have never had a bad one, from the service down to the cleanliness of the entire place.

He asked if we wanted it hot or warm. We ordered it warm and in hindsight we wish we'd ordered it hot but it was still perfect for a chocolate fix. He even brought out a candle for the cake when he found out her birthday was coming up the following week. I also ordered a cheesecake and we shared each other's desserts. Needless to say we had plenty to take home and we thoroughly enjoyed it the following day as well and at a hotter temperature that was perfect with soft serve ice cream.

Not many restaurants in Houston offer Takowasa, which is marinated raw octopus with wasabi; and when we find one that does, it's our must order for appetizers.

The tofu was soft and lightly battered, however the downside is that it gets soggy quickly since it's sitting in the sauce rather than on the side. For our entrees, we got the carbonara, curry tonkatsu rice, niku tama ankake, and kakuni udon. The carbonara was nice and creamy. The curry rice tastes exactly like the Japanese box curry. The niku tama is more of a thicker soup base similar to egg drop soup, however has a more slightly sweet umami flavor. The kakuni udon had a lighter broth with braised pork belly. The service was a bit slow here, but we didn't mind it too much. The interior had a cute traditional Japanese style decor. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and we'll be back to try other udons.
