I used to do some work here frequently when I was in Houston. Not so much of a study space, but private enough to bring a laptop and work in one of the booths. I loved how the hours were after midnight. And the chicken vermicelli bowls and spring rolls are SOOO good. I couldn't bring myself to try anything new, haha. It just took my stress away, especially in my alone time. It was comparable to eating dark chocolate! I showed this place to three of my friends, and they loved it as well. The service is great, and the workers are respectful and professional. They honestly brought an upscale kind of vibe to the atmosphere. At my time there, I could tell the owner had a strong relationship with them, and I noticed he was on standby a lot to make sure things were organized. I highly admired/respected him and his employees. read more

I came here with some friends and they will for sure see more of me. It's a smaller shop with greet seating so it'd be great for takeout or dine in! The server there that night was so cool and super helpful with ordering. The food took about 15-20 minutes to come out and it was soo worth it! I ordered a side of fried rice, beef potstickers (pan fried) and the salt and pepper wings and they were all so good. My friends ordered the Chinese spring rolls and the thai chili wings and they were so good too. The fried rice was perfect with some soy sauce and the wings were CRISPY. My pot stickers came with a delicious sauce that I also used on my rice which was 10/10. D Great late nice Asian spot for anyone looking :) read more

I frequent this restaurant often. I really love everything about it. My favorite dishes are the shrimp pho and the shrimp fried egg rolls. The rice is good as well. The guys inside are so so nice and welcoming. read more

I love this place! The Salt and Pepper flavor on any menu item is my absolute favorite. Especially the soft shell crab if it's in season.

I came across this place one late night while I was craving pho. I'm so happy I did cause this place is delicious. Our sever was sweet and told us we could sit wherever we'd like. Then he brought us bottled water which was nice. We had chicken pho which was cooked to perfection. The broth is so flavorful and the noodles are soft and not overcooked. I've came to this place many times and each time the food is great. It is on the pricier side of what I'm used to paying for pho ($15.99) but I do think it's worth the price because this is easily on my top 3 pho spots. Me'Lange seems to keep its place clean and tidy, I've never walked in to it being messy. Their decor is very nice and the parking is rather easy but there is a club next door and people seem to pay to be able to use their parking lot so sometimes it's full. This is 5 stars in my book especially because of how late they are open! I don't know of many pho restaurants open til 1 am, so this one's gonna do it for me every time! read more

Good spot for late night food when options are limited! They have a variety of Asian fusion dishes. They have plenty of parking available as well. I recommend trying the Crispy Egg Noodles with the house combination. The noodles are very crispy and topped with a variety of different meats and vegetables. Overall, this restaurant is a good option for late nights, but not so much during the day when there are much better options out there! read more

Hip, modern, clean and trendy little place with good Asian fusion choices. Service was excellent. Enjoyed my Vermicelli with chicken just fine despite it not tasting as authentic as a standard Vietnamese restaurant would have. Really enjoyed the egg rolls and would return just for those. I was so full after eating here because it was so good. Glad to know about this place as it's open late which is usually when I'm craving Asian food. read more

I don't write reviews, but I had to for Me'lange. I was going to Shokku last night but it ended up being too packed for me. So, I ended up calling to see when they would last seat people and so I ended up going there. When you walk in you're greeted with a smile! The range of items on their menu was actually nice but I'm very indecisive so it was hard to order a little bit. But I ended up going with the brisket phó & Chinese egg rolls. The egg rolls are perfect, they come out super hot! Now the phó, has a great flavor to where I didn't need any sriracha. It was so full of flavor and hot! The food was really great I ended up getting some wings and pad thai to go. The sweet chilli wings, were soooo good & so was the pad thai. Really great ambiance when you walk in, music and a calm space around you to enjoy some really good food! I will be back read more

A small restaurant with a really nicely designed sign on the exterior, Melange serves up Americanized Vietnamese food up into the wee hours of the night. The food is tasty and the service was really friendly, but it's not worth the price tag in my opinion. With the crab fried rice priced at $20, I was hoping it looked like something in the previous Yelp photos topped with lots of crab claws. The fried rice was a standard fried rice you find at other Americanized Chinese food shops that could go for $5 (still yummy), and the crab was scant and cold as well. Can't say no to carbs though! The shaking beef (also $20) was really flavorful and marinated with sauce. Usually the beef is just cooked with some salt and pepper and there's fresh lime juice you dip it in; the version here didn't need dipping, as it was so flavorful (but in a way that didn't let the meat shine through), and the lime juice was clearly from a bottle. It came with a fried egg, fried rice (which tasted pretty similar to the crab fried rice), and some marinated carrots and cucumbers. I picked the medium rare steak pho ($10) -- broth was clean, not super oily, and hit the spot, but dang, the meat was like really tough steak or stew meat without a hint of pink or tenderness anywhere. You don't get your usual array of meatballs, tendon, tripe, different types of flank steak, etc. to choose from here. The retro dance music also was a turnoff, haha~ but there's a parking lot in the back-- hooray! The food was tasty, but I would only come back if it was late and everything else was closed. read more

The food was pretty good. I had the beef broth pho with eye round steak and tofu. It was really good. My fiance had the orange chicken, it was really good but it was a bit more crunchy then he's used too. We found the restaurant on Google. DONT TRUST THE HOURS LISTED ON GOOGLE. Service was amazing even though we arrived like 30 minutes before closing. The place feels like an upscale or modern take on viet or other Asian dishes. I probably might go back if I want a late night pho, but there's better places to go too. read more

I ordered shrimp spring rolls, crab puffs, and thai fried rice. the fried rice was good. About what i expected, generous portion, good flavor. I was really looking forward to the spring rolls and they were mediocre. Just rice paper, lettuce, rice noodles, and shrimp. I was expecting more veggies that just lettuce. Maybe some carrots?? Also, the peanut sauce was SUPER sweet. Like, way sweeter than regular peanut butter. The crab puffs were okay. Not great, not very cristpy, just fine. I felt like maybe they were frozen? Didn't have that crispy texture I was looking for. For $40 for two apps and an entree, I was hoping for bette.r read more

Very disappointed in my order. I found bugs in my soup. See picture. Furthermore, I ordered two bowls of pho and received 1 set of utensils and one set of chopsticks. Further, there was no siracha or hoisin sauce. Does a hot dog go without mustard or relish. Do fries go without ketchup. read more

Came here after leaving a lounge so I was a little tipsy and excited to try this place I accidentally found. The service was great, but unfortunately the serving size amount for the price is just not worth it. I ordered beef broth pho w/ rare steak for Togo in person. This is what I noticed when I got home. Kinda wish I would've checked before so that's on me. The steak was not rare and ended up being a little tough , also little to no noodle. There's so much space in the bowl it's kinda sad. Overall the taste is fine..but i wouldn't return sober ... read more

We ordered Uber Eats from Me'lange over the weekend because it was near freezing temperatures in Houston and some of us were craving a warm bowl of soup. Based on their menu and website, they are ostensibly a Vietnamese restaurant that also dabbles in pan-Asian cuisine, with Thai, Chinese, and Japanese options as well. With my order of Japanese Udon Soup, I did in fact receive a warm bowl of soup like I wanted. It just wasn't very flavorful or exciting. The noodles were bland, the sliced chicken was virtually unseasoned and overcooked to the point of chewiness, the three shrimp were large but rubbery, and there was no egg at all despite the item description. The one part I really enjoyed was the broth, which was really garlicky with a subtle sweet-savory finish when sipped separately. But when added to the rest of the ingredients, the whole thing became a muted hodge podge that necessitated heavy doses of sriracha. My guests also did not find their Tofu Singapore Noodles to be especially strong in the flavor department. The portion sizes are reasonable. Maybe Me'lange has better options on their menu that are worth trying, but this wasn't a memorable first experience. For nearly half the $13 I paid for the Udon, you can get a much better bowl of noodles in Houston in my opinion. read more

If you work downtown Houston or just visiting try other places. I order some pork spring rolls, vermicelli bowl and pork fried rice. I give the two thumbs up for not forgetting the cutlery and condiments but two thumbs down for flavor. The pork in all three dishes had a bit of a rancid taste to it and I couldn't eat any of it pork cuts also had way to much fat and ligaments. It was like chewing balloons out of a old pork sandwich. Extremely over priced. read more

Rating this place base on it was open super late. After we left the Toyota Center concert. There weren't much restaurant available. We were tired of eating greasy food truck fries, chicken sandwich, & gyro. There basically two late night viet places. This or Mai's in midtown.Decided to give this place a try. Surprise it the food was very good. This is perfect spot after bar, club, sport event, or concert. Basil beef fried rice 5/5 Pho 4/5 Only negative is they're pretty pricey. But hey I rather pay for better quality. I would choose this place over Mai's midtown any day! Love they open till 3am! read more

Great Pho, Stew and desert, and price! Nice atmosphere and convenient location/parking. Will be back!

Okay food, great service. Been here a handful of times since the soft opening. The food here is okay, nothing to brag about really. Clay Pot: 2/5 I ordered the clay pot with fish and it's not like your typical clay pot. Personally, I feel like the clay pot here lacks flavor and could use some improvement. The soup base was way too watery (usually it's thicker) for my liking and the fish they use wasn't that good to me. Boneless fish was good so I didn't have to worry about bones, but it'd probably taste better if they use Catfish or something like other places. Smell was a little fishier than usual too. Tao Ngo has really good claypot but it's so far, so if you're in the area, Kim Son is a better choice if you're looking for this dish. Calamari: 3/5 4 stars for service, 3 stars for food. read more

Food: -special tofu curry: no flavor or spice, can't tell if its Thai/Chinese/Vietnamese curry? Overall, worst curry I have tried in my life. -Pho beef: flavorful broth, asked for extra veggies but amount served was the usual. Service: -Greeted by an African American at the front desk. Was rude about seating at first while I reviewed the menu, and he did not really feel welcoming, and when serving the entree, he also had some attitude when I asked where was the white rice? He said, "can you let me finish?" Sure... it was just a question. -Restaurant blasting their tv noise level. Had to ask 2-3x for them to lower the tv while customers are dining. Suggest owner to think about playing some nice music and having the tv on mute, especially if it's the sports channel. Ambiance: feels like a tiny cafe. Will not visit again due to service from host/owner, and curry was not memorable. read more

My new favorite spot! After an Astros game my friend and I were looking for a good place to have some Pho other than the nearby well known competitor in the area that is also open late. Initially it looked like a fancy restaurant, my friend was a bit intimidated by the nice table cloths, the dimmed lighting and bistro looking set up to only find out that their pho is very reasonably priced. The staff was great, they made us feel so welcomed and even for my picky friend that embarrasses me, they made it seem like they were completely OK with her ridiculous requests. She and I went with their beef Pho and I have to say that they did not disappoint. We ate till the last drop! For dessert... The their fried banana roll definitely hit the spot! We can't wait to come back again. read more

Only positive here is plenty of parking. Ordered a to-go, got there after 20 mins and they just started to cook it. Walked in and there was nobody at the front to greet - I stood there observing for a while- there was only two tables during dinnertime and two women in the kitchen trying to make my order. Finally a women comes out and instead of greeting, she just goes to refill water. Service: poor. On to the even worse part: food. Decided on the bun rieu noodle soup and it was bad and pricy - it just had TONS of tofu (it had so much i didn't even want to eat tofu anymore) and the meatballs were SOOOO SALTY where I couldn't even eat them. Taste is bad and whats worse, I had food poisoning for two days. Disappointed since its Vietnamese cooks, you'd think it'd be better and more authentic. Too scared to go back and try anything else, won't recommend. read more

I thought about giving Me'lange a 2 because of their efforts, but not really, their minimal efforts could not make up to the bad experience I had here. - False advertisement - I came here for the bun rieu picture, which is being displayed as their profile picture right now. The food comes out looked nothing like it. Being Vietnamese, I gave them a chance and asked if I could have the similar toppings and veggies. I gave them the benefit of the doubt that they serve a non vietnamese majority community, and therefore they might cut back on the authentic flavors and add ons. They took my bowl back in, and brought out a bowl with blood cubes added, but the orange color is so much more intense. The noodles almost looked like carrots. Hmm no, thank you. - Shaken beef was served on a hot pan (typical vietnamese bo ne skillet), 2 overcooked eggs and rice. The beef was dry and came with no veggies or garlic. This dish was $20 and the serving was definitely not satisfying. We asked for more garlic and was provided with additional garlic on the side. - Loss in translation. My husband and I are fluent in both English and Vietnamese. We tried to communicate to the waiter, but could not get through to the kitchen. He speaks English only and the chef speaks Vietnamese only. Eventually, we asked the chef to come out so we can directly put in our request. It was frustrating to say the least. So no, I would not recommend any friends and family to this restaurant. Drive a bit further to Mai's, Le's Noodles, or even Simply Pho for a much better experience. read more
